to build bridge, capable OF being made
into railroadimidge, how could this
bridge be builpahher the charter pro-
visions goverhidg bridges across the
Missouri, and how could the city or
county get sucboaeharterp
Any bridges 70 compete with the
Union Pacific bridge must have an out
let and an irlet- 1t must be a high
bridge like the 1Uhion Pacific or it can
not get into South Omaha without tun-
neling the citys-at an expense OF
millions, unless indeed tho bridge is
built at Bellevue or Florence, which is
not what Omaha wants.
A high bridge leading into the center
of Omaha, like the st. Louis bridge,
must have an elevated railroad track
such as. has been projected by the Ne
braska Central. Who is to build this
overhead railroad, since nsither the city
nor county can own railroad or have
any interest the-einp
The whole scheme OF free railroad
bridge or of bridge owned by the
county and city is impracticable. 1t
would be more manly and honorable for
the opponents of the Nebraska Central
and the hackers OF the existing bridge
monopoly to come out squarely and fight
the project ON the ground that it would
be injurious to their interests or that
it would clash with other schemes for
which they intend to ask subsidies from
Douglas county or Omaha.

WHEN the politicians figure Iowa's
vote for anyone but Harrison they are
entirely mistaken. Two or three dis
trict conventions, which were held the
same day as the state convention, in
structed for Harrison, and all would
have done so if it had been considered
necessary. Not single man would
have been elected by that and those con.
ventions if there had been suspicion o.
his loyalty to the implied and expressed
preference for the candidacy of the
president.

THE census bulletin of cereal produc-
tions for the states of Iowa, Kansas and
Arkansas reveals the pre-eminence OF
Iowa as a-corn-growing state, the, yield
of 1889 being 3l3, l30, ,7S2 bushels and the
acreage 1885, ,522, thus giving an aver
age OF Al bushels to the acre. The
average Of corn in Arkansas is 20.61, in
Kansas 50. 40. In oats Iowa's average is
t90 90; Kansas, 80. 49; Arkansas, H. so. In
wheat Kansas has an average of 10 21,
Iowa 14.09 and Arkansas 6. So The west.
ern slope of Iowa is proven to be by far
richer for all grain raising than the land
near the Mississippi.

THE Chicago, Fort Madison & Des
Moines railway is being rapidly COM
pleted into Ottumwa. 1t would be we'll
for Omaha to keep an eye on that road.
The Northern Pacific is said to be after
it, for the officials of that road inspected
it last winter; the Baltimore & Ohio has
designs on it, but the Santa Fe pruc-
tically owns it, and they should be en-
couraged to push it onward to Omaha,
the point they wish to reach.

The house of representatives has
passed bill to classify and prescribe
the salaries of railway postal clerks
which, If it becomes a law, will
materially better the condition of those
hard-worked public servants. 1t es'
tablishes six grades in the service and
the salaries range from $s00up to 81 800
The life of railway postal clerk carries
with it many risks, and the character ol
the service ranks among the, -highes,
under the government. The men are
deserving of the proposed increase OF
salaries, and they are fortunate in the
fact that this is SO generally recognized
in congress.

In his Providence speech Mr.. Cleveland
asked If a single manufacturing establish
ment had increased wages Of employees since
the passage OF the Mckinley law. Demo-
cratic papers take frequent occasion to say
that the inquiry is still unanswered. The
Albany Journal gives list OF twenty seven
establishments which have increased wages
from 10 to 30 per cent within tho past year
instances that happened to be within the
knowledge of the editor Of the paper. The
list with a little research, could doubtless
be doubled several times over. When re-
publicans assert that the tariff is blessing
to American labor, they mean what they say
and have the proof to sn bs ntiate ft.

A Topeka special to the Kansas
City Times discloses a new move of
the Republicans to out-wit the Popu.
lists in affecting needed legislation.
AT caucus dictation they will prepare
and introduce measures advocated by
the Peoples party and demanded by
the people. Their hope is that such
a procedure will cause enough Popu.
lists to oppose these measures on par.
ty grounds to defeat them, but il
they should pass and become laws
they will claim them as Republican
measures and will make the most of
it in the next canvass. They will also
resist all local legislation and defeat
all private bills possible so that the
Populists will have to explain and de-
fend their course to their constitu.
entS, etc.
The scheme is one worthy the old
deceitful, tricky Cop. They real
lze that the people have emphatically
repudiated and condemned their party
and principles and instead of grace.
fully accepting the situation and
standing up for Kansas as all true
citizens should, they band themselves
together to resist and defeat needed
and just legislation simply to bring
the new party into disrepute. Their
patriotism and craftsmanship goes no
further than gaming party advan-
tage. They would sacrifice the credit
and best interests of the state with.
out hesitation if thereby they are as
sured that it will cause the people to
repudiate and condemn the new
party.
But We predict the Republicans
will learn, as they have in the past,
that they are not nearly so cute and
smart as they think themselves. The
Populist Senators and Representatives
are well-read and well-posted, honor.
able gentlemen. and have already
learned that eternal vigilance is the
