Omaha daily bee., 1894-03-06

In one of the banks of this city 1876 new
accounts have been opened since June. A
leading bank has reduced the interest rate
on time deposits to per cent. The next
statement made to the comptroller and state
treasurer will show that Omaha banks have
more money on deposit than they want or
can proftably handle. banker said that
within ten days the banks of Omaha would
be soliciting borrowers who can give good
security, instead of repelling them, as has
been the rule the past six months. The
best financiers of the city have given 1t as
their opinion that when money becomes as
easy here as it is east there will be a gen.
eral revival of business, in all lines of trade
Building enterprises will spring up and
mechanics will have greater opportunities
for work. We belleveathat Omaha is upon
the threshold of better times, and that spring
will be the beginning of another prosperous

ing passes This is probably why tho
Atchison. upon which the blame Of the col
lapse Of the agreement is placed and which
conducts one OF the largest railway systems
in the world, has not felt inclined to give
up It's advantage. The amusing side of the
situation Is seen in the resolution adopted
by the railway managers condemning the
course of the Atchison receivers course
which all OF them had up to within few
months been themselves pursuing and will
pursue again. 1t is said that they would
have appealed to Judge Caldwell for the re-
moval Of the receivers were they not i'm
pressed with their own character of parti-
ceps crimlns. Were they really in earnest
in their endeavors to abolish the pass sys-
tenn they could easily accomplish their OBJ

cials in prosecuting those who are violating
the provisions of the interstate law.

What is the Truth oft?
New York sun.

1t seems to us that some notice ought to
be taken of The Omaha Bees allegations
concerning the failure of woman suffrage
in Wyoming. The Bee declares that no one
young state has received from 1t any prac-
tical benefit, moral, political, financial or
social:
purified by giving women the right to vote,
hold office and serve on jures? Most assur-
edly not. The cesspOol of politics is. If any
thing, dirtier. than 1t ever was The sue
gains with the bad men, but also with the
bad women. Have crime and vice decreased
perceptibly? Not at all. The towns Of
Wyoming are no less infected with vice and
crime than the towns of Dakota or Ne
braSka."
These assertions are deserving of consid-
Grafton on the part of the amiable and en-
ergetic women in this state who are deSir-
to be held shall provide for the establish
ment of female suffrage. In case of this
kind they cannot satisfy the people by de-
livering exciting speeches, or presenting
favor of their cause. Hard facts are
needed, and they alone are of any value
Has the welfare of Wyoming been pro-
NOTED by giving the women the right to
vote? That is the question.
The case of Wyoming is of especial in
terest, for the reason that there the princi-
pie of the equal rights of women and men
at the ballot box was first legalized. For a
quarter of a century full female suffrage
has existed in Wyoming. 1t has had fair
trial and long one, there. 1t is guaran-
teed in the state constitution of 1889, as it
had previously been provided for by the
territorial government If, after such a
period of time, Wyoming is afflicted in the
manner described by The Omaha Bee

Patriotism" at a dinner given by the Chi
cago Union League club on Washington's
birthday. Mr. Bryan informed his hearers
that the Washington monument was "the
most imposing shaft ever reared by human
hands in gratitude to man." He spoke of
Pericles, Mars, Salamis, the temple of
Janus, Naaman the leper and the newt
able Roman matron. He spoke of Milton,
Tennyson and Patrick Henry. He asked,
"Will the citizen be as patriotic when he
when he follows the eagles of war?" And
he shut himself off finally with this senti-
ment:
"The United States: Secure in peace or
war. when the people so act. at all times,
in all places and under all circumstances,
that each is worthy of that noblest of all
names, an American citizen"
1t would have been appropriate on the
birthday of Washington for Mr.. Bryan to
say that an American citizen worthy of
And If n worthy citizen may not lie, a
party, which is n collection of citizens,
mustn't lie, either. Yet Hon. William Jen-
nings Bryan, as a member of the ways and
means committee of the house of represen-
tatives, did his best to make the demo-
cratic party a. liar by helping to frame a
protective tariff bill with populistlc in

Pericles and Mars and the Roman matron
are a trifle worn. The fresh eloqucnce of
ter employed in apologizing for his own
divagations and those of his associates on
the ways and means committee from that
standard of political morality and hrnor of
which Washington was an cXemollr. More
over, Mr.. Bryan should know that TN ounce
of present example of political or any other
sort of virtue is worth more than ton of
pressed-leaf eulogy.

The democrats in congress are now said
to be holding back the bills for the admis-
sion of the remaining territories as states
for fear that, once admitted, they will dis
play their preference for the republican
party. Only a little while ago democratic
zeal for the immediate passage Of the en-
abllng acts for these territories could be
scarcely restrained. These territories are
either entitled by their population and
wealth to the benefits and privileges of
statehood now as before, or they were not
entitled to them when the democrats were
SO actively urging their claims. Utah, if
not the others, is ready to take up the re-
sponsbilities of an equal member of the
union. The possibility that the coming
elections might go adverse to the party in
power at Washington cannot detract from
her claims. If the democrats don't want to
pass the statehood bills, let them say so
openly. The people of the different ter
ritories will then be able to appreciate
the pretended regard for their welfare at
its true worth.

WORK FOR THE BUILDING INSPECTOR


Every city in the country is now endeavor-
ing to prevent disastrous confagrations by
stringent building regulations. The con-
struction OF fire traps and mere shells in
the business center is a menace to our
safety and not only endangers the sub
stantial buildings, but makes fire insurance
rates higher all over the city.
Omaha, within the past year, has had
costly experience that should not be re-
peated. The thing to do is to enforce i'm
partially the provisions of the building in
spection ordinance.
1t is said that new brooms sweep clean.
The new building inspector will be expected
to make some radical changes in methods
inside as well as outside of his Office. The
building inspector is presumed to do some
thing more than to go through the forms
of filing applications for building permits
and glancing over building plans with
view to ascertaining whether the founda-
tons and walls are of the regulation size.
The building inspector should make 1t his
business to examine every building site upon
which a brick or stone building is to be
erected with view to ascertalnng whether
have had very large buildings erected in
this city on sites that were formerly creek
beds, and in some instances the buildings
on these sites have required propplng and
strengthening to prevent a settling of walls
or a complete wrecking of the whole
structure. Some of the worst fires in this
city, in which flremen lost their lives. were
due to defective walls and inefficient inspec-
tion.
But we should not be content merely with
inspection that will insure substantial founda-
tions and safe structures to be built here
after, but we should pull down and demolish
all buildings and walls that are found to be
unsafe. The building inspector should at
once make a careful inspection of all the
old rookeries and standing walls in the busl-
ness center and If he deems them dangerous
proceed to have them condemned by the
board Of inspection and compel their owners
to cause their demolition or have them taken
down at their expense.
The work of the fire board should not be
limited to the demolition OF dangerous brick
buildings and walls, but its efforts should be
directed to the removal OF frame structures
in the business center that have become
public nuisance as well as a menace to safety.
These wooden shells are liable to cause the
destruction of hundreds OF thousands of
dollars worth of property, Many OF them
have been untenanted for years and have
become resorts for tramps and vagrants,
who are liable to set them on fire. Others
are filled with combustibles, such as hay,
fuel. etc. that should not be allowed to be
stored in the vicinity of any business block
While there may not be much to do in the
way of new building inspection there is GER
tainly ample work for several men in ex-
amining buildings that have been con-
structed with reckless disregard of public
safety incidentally the building inspector
can earn the salary Of his whole force by
