authorizing the trustees to put in a certain
arc light plant to complete our street light
ing. The new arc plant will cost from six
to ten thousand dollars, as estimated by
the trustees. The wear and tear on this
plant and the interest on it should not be
reckoned at less than 10 per cent-$6OO at
least. The estimated cost of completing
the whole incandescent system is less than
$1,000. It fascinated that the cost of
maintaining the arc system will be 81 200,
at least, while the annual cost of the in
candescents will not much if anything,
exceed $780, 1t will be seen that the extra
expense of running the arc system must be
81 900 above the small lamps. 1t is ques-
ton to be considered whether we can af-
ford the arcs at all. It is proposed to use
thirty large lamps or $50 small ones. The
people ought to turn out to the meeting,
candidly discuss the matter and decide
upon the best thing to be done. It will
be well to beware of accommodating our cur
rent expenses which create debts.

The circumstance having been universally
made known that the burst Of unprecedented
eloouence which nominated Mr. Bryan had been
pretty carefully prepared by himself and others

Garden will be both new and original He Is
working at it with great ardor and persistence,
and whatever else may be said Of II. doubtless
It WILL in one sense at least be the effort Of
his life" There seems 10 be in certain quarters
an inclination to veneer one or two of the planhs
in the Chicago platform, but nobody can mag
Inc that the candidate will try to sneak away
from this one:

demand that the standard silver dollar shall
be a full legal tender, equally with gold FOR
all debit. public Rnd private. and we favor
such Legislation will prevent Cor the
future the decentralization of amy Hind OF
Iegnl-tendcr money by private contract"
Presumably when Mr. Bryan rises to speak
his piece OF acceptance In this city he will see
before him great many workingmen. and he
may rest assured that they Will give him fair
hearing But they will not be satisfied with
mere promise that free silver will make them
more prosperous and happy. We warn Mr.. Bry-
an that he will have 10 give them some better
reason than his personal assurance for belcy-

AZ Up TO D4TE LTDGE.

Good for Judge Scott of Nebraska He Is the
Judge for whom we have all been anxiously
waiting All the other Judges are plutocrats.
mlnions despots and oppressors Of the poor. The
Popocrats of Chicago and ST. Louis have decided
that our Judges are lacking in proper judicial
qualities. and cannot be trusted to interpret the
law and the Constitution with the camness, bal
ance and impartiality which would beit their
high stations. Accordingly, they have demand
ed reorganization OF the courts declared for
the limiting of judicial tenures, and announced
that they intended to put men Of their own kind
upon the Bench to give us good Popocratic law.
Judge Scott is an official Of their own kind
That IS why he Is interesting, not because OF
any individual qualities. He is a type. He ex-
hibits on the Bench those qualities so character
istic of the Populist orator and statesman in
other walks of life. Judge Scott made speech
at Kearney. Ncb. on Saturday night, in which
he classed Major Mckinley and Senator Sher-
man with John Most as enemies Of society. and
said that he had sent better men TO the peni-
Tertiary than Grover Cleveland. whom the
American people have twice honored with nm
election to the highest office In their gift. Judge
Scott has convictions, and he is not ut all back
ward in procamng them with force. He is one
or the foremost OF fOpullSl JUICES, anu III
realizes the exalted character Of his office. and Is
even less inclined TO see judicial dignity invaded
than some Of the plutocratic Judges, whom the
Popocrats denouncc for thinking seat on the
Bench makes them sacred and should lead all
men to accept their decisions without question
Judge Scott too, believes In the sacredness of
a Judge, provided he Is Popocrat Judge who
does his duty and sends bad men like Grover
Cleveland to the pententiary whenever he gets
n chance while ago he sent some newspaper
men to jail for presumlng to crticise his official
action. He is living refutation OF the charge
that the Popocras want to destroy our courts
They do not want to destroy. but to occupy
They do net want TO do away with interpreting
the Constitution. but to interpret 1t according TO
the doctrines Of Mr.. BRYAN and Mr. Atgeld and
to the bride, and Mr.. Pcnnoyer. who tells the
President Of the United States to mind his own
business. They do not want to open the Jail
doors. but to close them upon Mr. Cleveland and
other pluocrats who stand In the way of Popo-
cratic reforms
We are glad that Judge Scott should have
come TO the surface. We have been wondering
Just where Mr.. Bryan. II he should ever by any
chance become President, would find material
with which 10 reorganze the Supreme Court,
and who among his supporters was Of sufficient
dignity, learning and self control TO take the
place of that veteran Democrat, Stephen j.

falter or TO change their tactics now. when their
cause Is nearer success than ever before, ana Is
making progress every day.
1t IS n coincidence worthy OF note that stimuli
tane0usly with this offer Of reward to inforIners
there should appear IN a reputable lordon mag
nZine n yirulent attack upon the Cuban cause,
phrased so Unexpectedly and wlth~so little re-
gard for perfectly obvious facts as irrcsist'Dly
to suggest a purposely prcjudccd origin "Ihe
New Review" would Of course, not print an
article that had been written TO order for the
Spanish Government. But its sense OF common
dccency ought TO restrain ii from letting any
one say in its pages that the Cuban revolution
was got up by Americans a. a financial specula-
tlon and that this country sends prOfessional
'rutiians and arocty-mongers 10 Cuba to levy
"backmall by processes unknown to any civil
lied state" Rudmcntary intelligence should
have saved it, also. from printing the stuff about
the Cubans being half-breed negroes who want
TO make the island another Hayti. the home OF
murder cannibalism and human sacrifice. Every
one who has taken the pains or who possesses
the capacity to be informed OH the subject knows
that negroes and haf-breeds form only small
minority Of the population Of Cuba, and that the
vast majority of the Cuban revOutionsts are
Crcoles of the purcst blood, who look upon the
average peninsular Spanard with disdan as
member of an inferior caste.
This Spanish mud-shower will not hurt the
Cubans. however, any more than Spanish gold
or Spanish steel However much 1t may be ex-
plotted in England in reviews and newspapers.
1t has been hopelessly discredited in advance
by the highest English authorities. The CORE
spondents Of The London Times and "The
London Standard" the one at Havana. the other
at Madrid. have depicted to the world In the
most convincing manner the utter badness OF
the Spanish case and the honesty hopcfulness
and righteousness Of the Cuban cause. No
American journal has ever spoken more vigor-
ously on the subject than they. Their testimony
has been accepted, and will stand. in spite OF
all the vaporlngs and NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. the foes
of free Cuba and haters OF America can emit.
Indeed, no stronger proof OF the desperation or
the Spanish cause could be desired than the
means which are now being employed in its be-
half. If Spanish guns could not subdue the
Cubans In the field Spanish brides will not do
so in American ports, nor Spanish lampoons in
the English press.

There are doubtless some such In Cuba. There

sufficiently numerous influential To affect
seriously the course Of the struggle. The great
majority OF the Cubans are In earnest and are
loyal 10 their cause They will accept no pri-

THE PEACE MUST BE KEPT.

The striking tailors who have been engaging
IN r!otOus disturbances on the East Side during
the last two days ought to be put under better
discipline by their leaders forthwith, for 1t is
certain that such conduct will not be tolerated
for moment by public opinion and must be
firmly suppressed by the authorities. There IS
much sympathy, and always has been, with
these people whose work Is excessively hard
and poorly paid 1t is not so easy. however TO
determine Just where the chief responsibility for
acknowledged evils ought TO be put. The pres
ent strike is against contractors but many Of
the contractors are themselves In n miserable
condition. which they attribute to the manufact-
urers and these last IN turn have at other times
declared that circumstances which they could
not control were at the foundation OF the period
zeal outbreaks In the trade. Without fully I'M
derstanding that question, right minded citizens
have earnestly desired TO have the condition OF
the grade Of labor from which the present strike
proceeds amcllorated. FOR the sake Of those d.
rectly concerned and also for the sake of the
whole community. whose reputation and welfare
sucb n mode Of lie a.. such methods or work
continually threaten II should he said Tor the

Perhaps because the pressure OF want Is now
stronger or perhaps because they have not beeh
so we'll advised as hitherto. this present contest
with the contractors Is developing serious dis-
order This is pity on all accounts, ana one
reason for deplorlng 1t Is that 1t may he the
means Of defeating claims which ought to he
granted and enhancing misery which deserves
to be relieved. The leaders Of the strike say fhat
they have urged their men TO keep the peace
and are not responsible for the disturbances
They say also that few turbulent and reck-
less persons of the class that Is always seeking
an outlet for violent passions have made all the
the whole truth: but even If II II, the innocent
will probably have to suffer with the guilty III
the loss of public goodwill, II in no other way
And the loss Of public goodwill generally means
a lost cause in such cases 1t is imperative that
public order should be preserved, and to thar
end more firmness and activity must be shown
by the authorities than were apparent on sun
day and Yesterday. If there are persons Wiling
TO take the places of the strikers they are en-
titled to be secured in their right to do so; ana
every citizen is equally Interested, whether he
realizes 1t or not, in the establishment of that
right, as we'll as In the preservation OF the peace
in every part of the city. There cannot, safely
or honorably, be any trlflng with lawbreakers
