ANTARCTIC EXPLORATIONS.

ANlAhIllN
England will soon send out a new
expedition for the exploration of
the Antarctic regions. Attached to
this expedition will be the famous
explorer, DIR. John Murray, of the
Challenger expedition. He believes
in the existence of an Antarctic land
mass of at least four million square
miles, with many elevated noun
tain ranges. This is covered with
an icy sheet, whose seaward margin
is range of exceedingly steep cliffs.
Through narrow inlets in these
cliffs it is hoped to obtain access to
the interior. Probably the various
lands that have been discovered
about the South pole, such as Victo-
ris Land, south of Australia; End
erby Land south of Africa; Graham's
Land, south of America, will be
found to be only seaward projections
of one great continent. This expe-
dition will be greatly promoted by
the impetus to Antarctic exploration
given by the recent discoveries of
Captain Larsen, who has steamed
1000 miles south of the Annartic cir
Gle, or 230 miles along the east coast
of Graham's Land, through waters
hitherto found impassable by reason
of icebergs. This land, which is
probably great peninsula of the
Antarctic continent, was discovered,
in 1881, by John Biscoe, who sailed
about 200 miles along the west coast,
and was the first man to set foot on
shore within the Antarctic circle.

OF both gold and silver on such basis
as will maintain their parity.
The platform deals with a number
of local questions, and on the subject
of freight rates it declares that the
charges for the transportation Of
freights in California by the South
ern Pacific should be subjected to an
average reduction of not less than rs
per cent, and it pledges the demo-
cratic nominees for railroad commits
isoners to make this reduction.
In regard to the indebtedness of
the Pacific railroads, the platform
declares that any extension of the
time for the payment of this indebt-
edness under the so-called Reilly
extending bill, or any similar
measure, would entail upon the peo-
pie of California the principal burden
of discharging this debt, and would
result in comforting additional bene-
fits upon the private owners of the
roads. Tho platform resolves that
every democratic nominee for con-
gress in California shall subscribe to
the following pledge:
'1f elected to congress I will
oppose any attempt and vote against
any bill for the payment by the
government of the Pacific railroad
debt, and l will favor and vote for a
measure to foreclose at maturity the
len of the government on these
roads, and to have them bid in by
the government and maintained as
national highways for the benefit and
in the interest of the people, and to
enforce against the stockholders of
said roads the collection of any
payment for deficiency that may
result upon said foreclosure, and
will favor and vote for all legislation
necessary to effectuate these ends.n
determined attempt was made
to commit the convention in favor Of
free coinage of silver at the ratio of
10 to 1. A majority of the delegates,
however, were strongly against the
proposition, and the resolution was
overwhelmingly defeated.

NEBRASKA REPUBLICANS,


NEBRASKA REPUBLICANS.
Lieut. Governor Thomas NJ. Majors
was nominated for governor. Ed
ward Rosewater, editor of the Omaha
Bee, denounced the nomination in a
scathing letter resigning his position
as executive committeeman.
In the platform adopted unani =
mously these declarations are made :
'In view of the practical results
of a year and half of democratic
rule, we reaffirm with renewed faith
and fervor the platform of the re =
publican convention at Minneapolis.
We demand the restoration of the
American policy of protection and
commercial reciprocity with our sis
ter republics of Mexico, South and
Central America and the Government
of the West Indies Islands"
AS to the financial situation, the
convention declares the "party in
Nebraska has always been the con-
sistent friend and aggressive cham
pion of honest money, and it now
takes no step backward" While
favoring bimetallism and demanding
the use of both gold and silver as
standard money, the convention
insists "that the parity of the value
of the two metals be maintained, SO
that every dollar, paper or coin, is
sued by the government, shall be as
good as any other"
The platform declares for more
state control of railroads; the adop-
ton of maximum freight rate bill,
and insists that no railroad shall
issue stock or bonds except for prop
erty actually received "and applied
to the purpose for which such cor
poration WAS created, and all stock
dividends and other fictitious increase
of the capital stock or Indebtedness
of any such corporation shall be
void"
Continuing, the platform says
1--WE recognize the rights of laborers
to organize, using all honorable
means for the purpose of dignifying
their condition and placing them on
an equal footing with capital, to the
end that both may fully understand
that they are necessary to the pros
perity of the country. Arbitration
should take the place of strikes and
lockouts for settling labor disputes.
The extirpation of anarchy is essen
tial to the self preservation of the
nation, and we, therefore, favor the
pending bill in congress for the ex
clusion of anarchists.
"We believe the industries of our
state should be diversified, to relieve
the masses of the people from de-
pendence upon one class of agricul-
tural products, subject to crop fail
ures, and it being demonstrated that
the soil of this state is adapted to
the production of sugar beets, even
in dry seasons, source of incalcu-
liable wealth, we favor legislation
that shall bring to our people its full
realization"
After pledging the party to support
all measures calculated to benefit the
citizens of the state, the platform
conclu les with an appeal to the old
soldiers.

dict that he viii yet join the republican
party, for in that party he can hnd the
protection policy that he favors ana can
also find thousands of old line wings. III
he had run this last race as an independ-

extenuate not set down aught in malice.
But there is some good mixed up with
every bad that comes. The populists are
sick unto death and so are the A. L. AS.

Dental contest be fair and square on the
tariff. Let protection or tariff reform be
the issue. We want this question settled
so that the hidden money can be turned
loose. There is just much of 1t as there
was a few years ago, when the boom was
on, but people will not invest while this
uncertainty continues. 1t Is not so much
whether silver should be 16 to l, or some
variable ratio, 1t is the withdrawal
of capital from active employment. l wish
to borrow and nobody will lend. This may
be good for me in the long run, but in the
short run II is very aggravating-if not
more so. Nevertheless, the best thing for
us all to do now is to be calm and serene.
