MOST RAISE TIRE STANDARD

Republicans OF Nebraska have a very
important campaign before them. AL
though the cleavage between the parties
will be more On state than on national
issues, the general outcome cannot fail
TO have serious bearing upon the next
great national contest.
In the impending state campaign more
than in any previous campaign, the
makeup Of the tickets will exert a de-
termining influence on the popular
choice. Nebraska republicans have an
abundance Of material TO pick from,
but only men OF high character and
proved capacity should be considered.
The tendency for many years has
been to assume that anybody, or every
body, who has the nerve to push him
self is good enough to run for any
office to which he may aspire. Asa
result the party has met with disaster
in trying to put round pegs into square
holes. In the impending campaign the
party cannot afford to invite defeat by
repeating the blunders of the past.
Tattooed candidates must be given a
wide berth and only clean and reputa-
BILE men encouraged to enter the lists.
The rank and file of Nebraska repub-
licans are not In a frame Of mind this
year to rally TO the support of a ticket
loaded down with either dead weights
or lightweights. Public sentiment as
reflected through the republican state
press favors a higher standard of pub
lie men and a more efficient public
service. Above all things it is opposed
to any course that would put the party
on the defensive and make the task Of
holding the state in the republican col
umn more difficult and labOrious.
Omaha daily bee., 1902-04-14

business men Of San Francisco oppose
the bill as too drastic and likely to in
terefere with our trade there is GER
tainly reason to doubt the wisdom Of the
proposed legislation.
There is probably no great danger of
the Chinese government taking any ac-
ton in the way Of retaliation or re-
prisal. 1t is very friendly toward the
United States. to which It really owes
Its present security and the preserva-
ton of its empire. But on the other
hand. it could hardly be expected to do
anything to encourage trade with this
country. What is to be apprehended is
that Chinese merchants will manifest
their resentment at legislation excluding
them from the United States by refus-
Ing to buy our goods, and 1t is alto
gether likely that u commercial rivals
will encourage them to take this method
of showing their displeasure. This is
apparently the view of the merchants
of San Francisco, who do not object to
the exclusion of Chinese laborers, but
regard as unwise and quite unneces-
sary the shutting out Of Chinese mer-
chants.

TIE PEACE

The latest information IN regard tc
the conference at K~lerksdorp, while
holding out a promise Of peace, is less
reassuring than could be wished. What
is lacking is an authoritative statement
of the terms upon which restoration OF
that both British and Beers very earn.
estly desire to end the conflict. The
British government is confronted with
the necessity of increasing taxation,
already burdensome. 1t must do this
in any event, but should peace be made
the country would accept the added
taxation with little complaint, expecting
that In the not remote future the gov.
eminent would find it practicable to
reduce the burden. Therefore 1t seems
reasonable to assume that there will
be a disposition to offer liberal terms
for peace. As to the Beers, they prob.
ably realize hat they cannot succeed
against the powerful foe and that there
will never be a better opportunity than
the present situation offers for obtain.
ing reasonable terms. They might be
able to continue guerrilla warfare for a
year longer, but the outcome is In.
evitable and something can be saved
If an honorable peace can now be Sc
cured.
1t is easy to see, however, that there
are difficulties in the way which may
not readily be overcome. Some of the
conditions which it is reported the Beers
will demand 1t is safe to say the Brit
ish government will hesitate to grant,
as for instance that of absolute in
dependence. That would require the
complete abandonment of Great Brit
aims declared policy and 1t appears
highly improbable hat the Beers will
propose such a condition, or at any
rate insist upon it. Another reported
demand which the British will not be
disposed to cOncede is that Of amnesty
for the colonists who Joined the Beers
and thus became rebels. 1t will be
urged against granting this demand
that it would create a bad precedent.
Yet the British government can well
afford to do this if it is necessary to
peace, for undoubtedly such mGgnanim-
ity would have a good influence upon
the loyalty of the colonlsts.
A favorable circumstance in the sit.
uation is the reported fact that Lord
Kitchener is very DESTROYS for peace
and will axart his Influence with the
British government to secure liberal
terms. His judgment should have great
weight with the government. Another
statement is to the effect that King Ed.
ward is favorable to the granting of
liberal peace terms, and If such is the
fact there is reason to expect that the
British government will materially de-
part from its heretofore declared pol

tNPRoVED ORIENTAL TRADE.

Treasury statistics of foreign COM
merce show u great improvement in our
trade with the Orient. There has been
within the current fiscal year a very
marked increase in the exports Of cot
ton goods to China, When that market
was closed by the disturbance in the
empire the effect upon the cotton manu-
featuring industry OF this country was
very serious, particularly in the south.
When the China demand was renewed,
a little over a year ago, the cotton In
dustry was on the verge OF demoraliza-
ton. The difference between the open
and the closed door in China for the
United States is, in cotton fabrics alone,
a difference between an export of $780,
800 a month and one of $1,19S,OOO a
month. In other respects our trade with
that empire is improving and is likely
to continue to do so II no u~nfavorable
conditions are interposed.
However secure the open door In
China may now be, there is some doubt
as to whether we can retain our trade
there II the proposed policy in regard
10 that country now being considered In
congress shall be put into effect. In the
senat on Saturday MI. Frye and Mr..
Hanna read dispatches from merchants
in San Francisco in opposition to the
pending exclusion bill, on the ground
that 1t is too drastic and will interfere
with our trade with China. These
merchants urged the re-enactment Of the
existing law as being ample for the
protection of American interests and
American labor. 1t is pointed out thai
the Objectionable feature OF this meas
ure is in providing for the exclusion OF
merchants, students and travellers, who
would come here merely to aequaini
themselves with the country and not &c
remain permanently. When prominent

York-A City Of Contentment.

The city Of York contains $500 people.
and this will be increased by 1000 before
snow flies" This statement may be read
with suspicion by those who know that only
two years ago the census gave the popula-
ton as 5.1s2. but II is upon these figures
the stimat rs based. When the fact Is
known that 100 houses have been built IN
this city within the last twelve months and
that 200 more are under contract ana in
contemplation for this season, Il will be
super1uous to say more.
The city is beautifully situated. the resi-
dences on surrounding hills and the busi-
ness houses mostly in the encircled valley.
Early in the life Of York the people were
some way impressed with the value OF trees
and planted them everywhere. The streets
are now lined with stately elms, naples and
other shade trees and the lots are adorned
with fruit trees and Towering shrubbery.
No other city In the state is SO hand
somely adorned nor so beautifully shaded.
There are in York three colleges and an
excellent system Of public schools in which
about twenty-five teachers are employed.
A diploma from the High schoo admits it's
owner TO the State university. York col
lege is a classical and literary school OF
high attachments and has 300 students. The
School Of the Holy Family is conducted by
the Ursuline Sisters and has large build
inss and is literally patronized. The York
Business college and Normal school is what
Its name implies, is well equipped and ,has
an excellent faculty.
Almost every religious denomination in
the west has an organization and a house
OF worship in this city. All OF them are
neat and comfortable and many are elegant

and costly. Music, art and literature -four
ish here and the people are refined and oul-
tured. Our educational advantages and
social opportunities are constantly attract
ing to the city the best families in the
state. There are no saloons here nor
have there been any for twenty-five years.
We have a fine system OF water works,
electric lights. a daily paper. an elegant
theater which seats 1900 comfortably, the
Mothers Jewels Home, a national orphan
age, and all the manufactures and enter
prises usual in a city OF this size. Free
mail delivery has been established.
{ While York is pre-eminently an educa-
tional town and is noted for Its churches,
schools, music. art and refinement, II Is no.
the less a business city on that account
Here are larger and finer stocks in all lines
and more prosperous merchants than In any
except the two metropolitan cities In the
state. Our two banks have today de-
posits Of more than 81, 200, 900. These two
institutions are ar index Of the substantial
and thrifty business of the city. One has
deposits OF more than $3.50 600. and the
other enjoys the distinction Of being a
United States depository, the only one in
the state outside OF Omaha and Lincoln.
York is not asking for anything. 1t
does not need anybody who does not need
York. Its people extend a cordial well
come to every one who desires TO live in
such q community and to every worthy and
useful enterprise. II IL surrounded by
the most beautiful country In the west and
the most thrifty and enterprising farmers.
There is an atmosphere Of contentment,

try seldom equaled and nowhere surpassed.
