for rest and recreation. He went to Har-

few days he spent on the mountain l,ene-

too soon. Stree his return he has been on

even II willing, to grant such conces-
sions rs are necessary to a fair and
equitable reciprocity. Perhaps all this
country can reasonably ask Is that Its
manufactured products shall be placed
on an equal footing in the Canadian
tariff with British products, but it Is
not to be expected that this will be
done. Some discrimination in favor OF
British goods will undoubtedly be in
sisted upon.
1t is thought that the cordial feeling
now prevailing between the people of
Great Britain and the United States
will have n most favorable influence on
the settlement of the questions that will
be submitted to the conference and
doubtless it will, but in the considcra-
ton of such n purely business matter MS
reciprocity sentiment is not likely to

WORTHY of THE WEST.


Five years ago our good city of Chicago
astonished the world by holding an exposi-
ton that surpassed all previous exhibitions
in the history Of the industrial world. Now
Chicago's eldest daughter, Omaha, the am
bilious Gate City of the Transmissour re-
gions, has just opened the Transmississippi
Exposition. cit will, in everything pertain
ing to the industries of the states west of
the Mississippi, surpass the Worlds fair in
the wealth and variety of its exhibits. To
tho ordinary man, five years seems n short
time, but in our age of rapid development,
of new discoveries, of new inventions. of
continual changes and improvements in
machinery and manufactures, one can
scarcely conceive the wonderful advances
made in every branch of industry. Men,
| yet in their prime, have seen countless herds
of buffalo roaming in the complete security
of the desert, where now fourishing states,
cities and communities are competing with
the older world in science, industry and art.
The Indian trail that many of us have fol-
lowed with carbine at a ready has given
place to a network of railroads. The In
dams hunting grounds have become the
| granary of the world and the pasturage of
flock and herds that feed millions of men.
The exposition buildings are exceedingly
handsome in design. and in the plan Of the
grounds the general view is much hand
somer than at the Worlds fair. The ex-
hibits are very large. The United States
has surpassed it's exhibit at the Worlds fair,
and visitors will find very many and Won
derful changes in all that relates to military
and naval art. The archaeological and anti
quarian departments have received many
new additions, and the exhibits of the Fish
cry commission and the Geological depart
ments will be much more diversified than at
the Worlds fair. The agricultural exhibit
will undoubtedly be the largest in the his
tory of the world, and will be a striking
illustration of the wonderful change in the
productive power or regions which were but
lately described as the great North Ameri-
can desert. The mining industry, notwith-
standing its entirely unprotected condition.
will illustrate the enormous mineral wealth
of the Transmississippi states. though only
in the infancy of its development. In the
Transmississippi Exposition the man of pa
triotic instincts will find much qualification
He will be convinced that he has a country
destined, under wise legislation, to be the
treasury and emporium of the world. The
state buildings are very fine edifices, sur
passed in size only by two at the Worlds
fair, those OF Illinois and California. TIL
home built by Illinois is worthy of our state
and proves the kindly interest that exists
between us and our Nebraska neighbors.

The state of Kansas is typical of the

It's population, its resources and indus
tries and in it's possibilities. The Kan
sas people have n right to boast OF the
St36.OOo.0 900 worth of agricultural prod
ucts marketed last year, of the S94,OOO,-
600 worth of live stock they own II OF
the S3O.0 600, 900 of Indebtedness Cancelled
last year--all evidences of unlimited
energy rightly applied where resources
are abundant. But Kansas is more than
an agricultural state, for zinc, salt. oil.
lead and coal are taken from the depths
of the earth and the cities of Kansas
are filled with manufacturing enter
priscs. Kansas is, therefore, an all
round, good western state and FOR Kan
sas to have been left out of the EXPOSE
ton would have been an inexcusablc
blunder.
Kansas rs neXt o neighbor to Nc

that the greatest possible prosperity
shall come to this portion Of the United
States and doubtless believe rs we do
that the road to prosperity will be
smoothed by publishing to the world

water mark of our agricultural exports was
reached in 1892. when they were valued at
s799,s2 .2S2, When the reports for May
and June are completed It is now esti-
mated that the total for the year will not
fall below 1856. 900, 900, and may exceed that
amount. The exports will be fully so per
cent in excess OF the total in 1895, and at
least si50. 900, 900 more than the exports Tor
last year. The value OF the exports OF
wheat alone will be more than ouble the
exports Of 1897, while -four and corn cx-
ports show an increase OF so per cent.
Tho most notable feature OF this re-
markable export movement was the sale OF
corn TO European and Asiatic consumers, the
total exports for the year having passed the
200, 900, 900 bushel mark for the first time In
our history. In only three preceding years
have the exports OF corn reached The 100.-
0O0, 600 bushel mark.
Great Britain is as yet our heaviest
customer in corn, wheat, beef and other
food products. When the countries which
have been suffering from bread riots learn
the food value OF our Indian corn the ex-
ports OF 1898 will be a mere bagatelle COM

WARNING TO CORPORATIONS.
No business To rake Up Schemes for
Leptptnttyc Bribery.


Springfield (Mass.) Republican.
Former officers OF the Pacific Express
company have recently had a preliminary
trial at Omaha on charges OF embezzlcment.
The amount alleged Is some 5000 900. Their
prosecutors are the present officers OF the
company, who are also at tho head OF the
Union Pacific railroad. 1t Is contended by
the accused that there has been no mis-
application Of funds, that the money was
spent to defeat hostile legislation and that
while the expenditure was of questionable
character 1t was absolutely necessary to the
continued business success OF the company.
No denial whatever is made Of the state
ment that the Pacific Express company
maintained for many years a lobby at the
Nebraska capital. Something like sl0, 900 a
year was expended on this lobby. The Pa
cifc company paid the money in the first
instance and then collected an agreed upon
share from the Adams and United States
express companies. The money was used
chiefly in killing bills to reduce express
rates.
President Horace G. Burt OF the Union
Pacific and also of the Pacific Express COM
pany evidently does not accept the conten-
ton of the former president. Il. NJ. Mors-
man. that the expenditure was necessary
hAN vi iS pN NV u
this public disclosure. He might very easily
maintain that the expenditure was not only
wrong in principle but unfortunate in prac-
tice. For the event proved that the lobby
grew upon what The Pacific company fed
1t. The $40. 900 a year or so became not
merely a special emergency expenditure
for the company but a permanent annual
expenditure. When hostile express hills
were wanting jim the legislature, the lobby
would induce some striker" to introduce
a few, and then the express company would
be called upon for money to meet the new
legislative emergency. There are con-
scienceless strikers and corporation sand
baggers'' in every legislature ready to
prepare bills to shake in the face of some
rich company and brighten 1t into buying
immunity, but the corporation only stirs up
trouble for itself by submitting to such
blackmail. 1t would be far safer, as well
as more honest. to leave its case to the
legislative and popular sense of fair deal
ing.
The result of the express companies
course in Nebraska is a great loss of money
to the purpose only yof arousing popular an
tagonism and provoking worse legislation
and public treatment than has been br!bed
away by the 5000, 900. Circulars contain
ing the gist of the testimony in the prelimi-
nary trial of former Pacific express com
pany officers are being scattered over the
state by the radical democracy, and the
matter will figure potently no doubt in
the coming campaign. Popular prejudice
against all corporate power will be in
creased. All are ready to admit now that
it was an unfortunate expenditure of cor
porate money.
The case should be a warning to the cor
porations everywhere. They would better
let the legislatures more generally alone
But meantime what shall the people dc
about their Matchmaking and bribe-seekinl
and bribe-taking legislatures?
