The disgraceful incompetency of
County Attorney Shields has been again
brace of gamblers because the COM
plant filed against them was defective.
Even the deputy who had been detailed
to prosecute these outlaws in the police
court had to confess that the documents
had been bunglingly drawn out of the
wrong statute book. Is it not about
time for County Attorney Shields to
know the right statute book, or are we
to infer that the bungle was caused not
by accident, but by design?

of President Mckinley, pays a tribute
TO the army and navy and declares that
the people can safely commit the
solution of the momentous prob
lens of the future Of Cuba,
Porto Rico and the Philippines to
the national administration. 1t is de.
clared that "ther wise solution will
vastly increase our foreign trade, spread
American civilization abroad and add
10 the honor and power and glory of
this great nation" a plank favors leg
islation for the creation of merchan,
marine for the foreign carrying trade
and in regard to trusts they are con.
demned in no uncertain language as
inimcal to the interests of the people,
while the party Is pledged to such
further legislation as experience may
determine necessary to prevent the
formation and operation "of such in-
iquitous and dangerous combinations"
The antitrust declaration is adequate,
but the platform would be more salts
factory if it contained plank in favor
of legislation definitely declaring the
gold standard
The Ohio republicans appreciate their
duty this year and the present indica-
tions are that they will make an earnest
effort to perform 1t.

While the federal bankruptcy law has
been in force less than year, and it
may perhaps be premature to form Il
correct estimate of it's efficacy, in this
section of country the consensus of
opinion Is that its operation fully justi-
fies it's enactment. In the federal dis
trict court for Nebraska nearly 25O
cases have been filed and the schedules
show an aggregate of nearly $1,OO0,OOo
of liabilities that cannot be met by in
solvent debtors. Although the court
has already sanctioned the cancellation
of about 100000 of debt its officials
incline to the opinion that no applicant
has attempted to take an undue ad-
vantage of the law. From the strictly
commercial standpoint the discharge of
insolvent debtors is a gain, inasmuch
as it lifts a burden from the shoulders
of many active, enterprising business
men who otherwise would remain
buried under a mountain of obligations
they could never hope to redeem.

ANOTHER EVIDENCE OF PROSPERITY.
The marked increase in the cattle
traffic and meat-packing industry reg
istered at South Omaha affords another
tangible proof of the improved condi-
tions of western producers. Notwith-
standing the heavy demand for the
raw products of the farm at good prices
their conversion into meat indicates
clearly that the farmers west of the
Missouri have abundant means to en-
able them to feed their corn to cattle
and hogs, instead of being compelled
to make sacrifices by marketing every
bushel of grain almost Immediately
after it is harvested and cribbed
Incidentally the marked increase in
the cattle traffic fatty contradicts the
assertion of alarmists who predicted
that Omaha had reached its full growth
as q meat-packing center because the
territory upon which its packing houses
depended for their supply had reached
its limit Of production and rival pack
ing centers prevented Omaha from en-
larging its source of supply. AS a
matter of fact the territory tributary
to Omaha is not yet half developed
either as a source of supply Of farm
products or in the cattle-raising indus
try.
1t is conceded by expert meat-packers
that Omaha is destined to become the
greatest sheep-packing point in all
America and will at no distant day be
second to no other American city in
the pork packing industry. That means
not only steady employment for thou
sands of wage-workers, but a steady
increase in the army of wage-workers,
with corresponding increase of local
traffic and general diffusion of pros
perity among all classes of business
men.
The effect of this gradual enlargement
of the live stock industry is already
felt in all the arteries of trade, not only
in Omaha, but in every section of the
state and those who deny or make
light of these evidences of prosperity
would deny that the sun shines in mid
day when there is not cloud in the
sky.

WE CAN'T LET GO.

The radical anti-expansionist, be-
fore the too excessive fermentation
of his wrath, should pause and an
swer the question as to when the
United States should have withdrawn
from Manila. Had Dewey withdrawn
from the Philippines after the expat-
ration of the Spanish soldiery, the
whole of Europe might have been
involved in war. For who, then,
would have defended the various for
eign interests at Manila. While
Spain was there, these were protect
ed. When Spain was gone, the city
must have been given up to the pill
lage of barbarians. The HERALD is
not the defender of expansion; but it
tries to be reasonable; and by rea-
soning mind it must be admitted
that America, once assuming the de-
defense OF property in the Philip
pines, would be the coward of ma
tlons to withdraw, at such juncture.

THE GOLDEN RULE,

In the tumultuous clamor by la
borers for their statutory and God
given rights it is pleasing to notice
here and there a concern which
seems to have heart in its organ
ism.
The D. J. Henhessy Mercantile
company of Butte has gone to the
expense of furnishing spacious quar-
ters for the benefit of the organiza-
ton of its employees, each and every
one of whom has the privileges of
reception rooms, library and all the
numerous accessories of first class
club house. A literary society is a
feature of the organization, and so
cial functions are held in the hand
some apartments which are on the
top floor of the big store.
The Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul Railway company is now con-
sidering a plan to educate all its
employees in surgery to an extent
that they can render valuable first
aid in the case of accidents.
Other instances of altruistic prac-
tees by corporations may be cited,
but they are extremely rare. And
so it is pleasant to note that among
the thousands of combines of capital
there are a few who seem to bear a
fair regard for their employees, and
that an occasional manager of large
capital is not so thoroughly involved
with interest tables and dividend
calculations as to forget the golden
rule.
1t is safe to say that when the
labor question is finally settled, and
we believe it will be settled, the
terms of settlement must be along
the lines of mutual regard between
capital and labor.
