THE SHERMAN MEMORIAL BANQUET
Seldom. indeed, have two such distin-
guished men come from single house
hold as Senator John Sherman and his
late brother, General William Tecumseh
Sherman. Still more seldom is the priv
ilege and honor accorded the elder
brother, himself great and honorable, to
speak the praises of a younger but still
greater brother. This was the interest
ing fact at the Sherman memorial ban
quet in New York on Wednesday even
ing John Sherman, as the guest of the
evening, stood in the presence of the
revered memory of his departed brother
and told some of his remaining military
comrades, modestly, in perfect taste, but
effectively, of the life of General Sher-
man. The daughter of the nations hero
was likewise a guest, and every man
present and every patriot III America
felt that homage was due to his sac red
memory.
The plain unostentatlous tale which
John Sherman told at the banquet will
become classic in American history. 1t
soldier, for boasts would be absurd in
the face of facts which every school boy
knows and which speak louder than
eulogies. He told of tho brothers love

great soldier in civil life and of his
social characteristics. Side lights are

found no armor anywhere needing to be
FURNISHED and no mysteries to explain.
His public and private life were both
frank and manly. Few men who were
so much misrepresented and SO little
understood and appreciated in the midst
of their greatest achievements have
been SO triumphantly vindicated in
history within their own lifetimes. No
other man, it may also be remarked,
has been so fortunate as to have John
Sherman's delicate hand, directed by
brotherly affection, good sense and
passing ability, put the finishing touches
to- the monument erected to mark his
achievements. What more beautiful
tribute could be offered to the memory
OF MS departed proIner lnan Ine Sena-
tors closing worus:
ut was the good fortune of General Sher-
man to have been chief actor in this great
drama and to have lived long enough after
its close to have realized ana enjoyed the
highest estimate of his service by his COM
rades. by his countrymen and by mankind.
To me, his brother, it is higher pride to
know and say to you that in all the walks of
private life. as a son, as d brother, MS hus-
band, as a father as a soldier, as a comrade
and as friend, he was an honorable gentle
man, without fear and without reproacn."

little effect The situation had changed
since two yeafstago. Depression had

of tho tariff act and one of the abcst

jority in that body is very small, and the
loss of so valuable member as Mr. Aid

Tne opponents OF the Nebraska Gen.
tral proposition are seeking TO create
the impression in the minds OF the
county commissioners and the city
councilmen that the people OF Douglas
county demand a written guaranty that
the project will be consummatcd before
the question shall be submitted TO the
people. The enemies OF this gigantic
enterprise are prolific in subterfuges
and they are determined to impose such
conditions upon the consideration o. the
county board and council that. If
adopted, will defeat the project, even ii
the bonds be voted by the people
The conditions already proposed by
the Nebraska Central company that
the bonds be withheld until the bridge
shall be completed and the depot and
road shall be under way afford ample
guaranty to the taxpayers OF Douglas
county. ANY infraction of these condt-
tions can be promptly met by an irjunc-
tion which any taxpayer can readily
secure should occasion arise for an APP
peal to the courts. This is not at all
probable.
The taxpayers of Omaha and Douglas
county will run no risk whatever by vot-
ing the bonds asked for, except as to the
amount that may be expended for elec-
tion expenses, and 1t is understood that
the Nebraska Central company is will
ing to share that item of expense. This
would be mere bagatelle compared
with the compensating benefits to accrue
from consummaton of this great un-
dertaking.
There can be no valid reason for re-
fusal to submit the propositions as made
to u vote of the peole of this county. A
refusal to do so will be u base betrayal
of the best interests of Omaha and cry
ing shame upon the board of commits
sioners and the city council. The mem
| bers of these bodies must meet the popu-
| lar demand for the submission OF this
| question to the people. If they fail in
| this duty they will lay themselves liable
to the suspicion that they are sub
servient to competing roads that are
now resorting to desperate means to kill
the only project that has ever been Of

THE WORLDS FAIR.

The new Nebraska World 3 Fair COM
mission deserves credit for the vigor and
systematic attention to details with
which it enters upon its career. The
small appropriation is handicap from
the start, but the commissioners appear
to be fully alive to the important work
with which they have been entrusted.
The meeting held in Lincoln on
Wednesday was devoted to a practical
solution OF the problem of preparing a
respectable exhibit with so inadequate
fund at their disposal. To their credit
it may be said however, that they give
the state the promise OF an econom-
ical expenditure. Ex-Commlssioner
General Greer's report shows that there
has thus far been no extravaganza on
his part. But after stinting themselves
at every point, and allowing but Sl4, 900
for building, they find that $3i,7 700 of
the $4,000 will have been expended on
March ], 1893. when it is expected the
exhiait will be in place
IL is perfectly clear from this state
ment that additional funds must be pro-
vided. The $50 will all be needed,
beyond doubt, for the expenses Incl
dent TO the Nebraska building and sepa-
rate exhibit alone. In the state building
no educational, agricultural, horucultu-
raj or other special displays can be made.
Under the regulations of the Worlds
fair directors these must be assigned to
their appropriate classes in the govern
ment buildings Hence the commission
will ask for an additional appropriation.
1t should be 500, 900. thus alloting $780,
900 in all to the important purpose. II

A SIGNIFICANT VICTORY.

The republicans of Rhode Island won
a signal and significant victory. They
elected the governor, lieutenant gov
ernor and secretary of state, and will
have at least six majority In the legis-
lature on Joint ballot. This assures the
reelection of United States Senator
Aldrich, and also the election OF the
candidates for state offices who did not
receive a majority CT the popular vote.
AS the little state was the tirst to rem
der a verdict this year upon national
issues, the campaign was one of the
most earnest and hotly contested in its
history. 1t was conducted entirely upon
national issues, the speakers upon both
sides devotiug themselves largely to the
tariff. Among the distinguished repub-
licans who participated were eX-Speaker
Reed and Governor Mckinley of Ohio.
Among the prominent democrats were
ex-President Cleveland and ex-Governor
Campbell OF Ohio. Both parties felt
that the result would be important, and
summoned their strongest available men
to expound their respective policies and
principles. The result is important.
1t is defeat of the policy of tariff re-
form which is championed by Mr., Cleve-
land and Mr.. Mills. Rhode Island is a
manufacturing state and its people are
generally prosperous. Its industries
have grown up under the policy of pro-
lection ana have increased sincs the
present tariff act went into effect. 1t is
stated that the increase OF the output OF
the woolen mills in the state during the
last eighteen months is simply marvel
Gus. The same can be said of the DIFF
ferent establishments which manufac-
ture every variety of cotton goods. The
people OF Rhode Island are usually we'll
employed aud receive good wages The
working people are thrifty and con-
tented.
With such conditions prevailing the
generalities of Mr.. Cleveland and the
demagogic assertions of Campbell and
other tariff reform advocates could have

tract through the Board OF County

oped two very significant facts. First,
the bid OF the newspaper named was the
highest OF the three and not in accord
ance with the terms of the advertise
ment. Second, Major Paddock made
his report favoring the World Herald
without conference with his committee
colleague 1t was shown that the states
man from the Pappio was wanting in
both candor and courtesy. The "htg-
Cling" which he contemptuously alluded
to was in the interest of the taxpayers
