CONGRESS-.

The memorable remark Of President
Cleveland about having congress on his
hands implied a feeling that he had a
disagreeable duty before him. The last
democratic president was much Of the
time, even while congress was in con
troll Of his party. at odds with that body.
He did not get along well with some Of
the leaders and his few devoted follow
ers were not able to carry out his views
and wishes. This was conspicuously
the case in regard to tariff legislation.
the law of 1894. which he would not
sign, having been declared by him to
be an act Of peridy and dishonor.
The meeting today of the second SEES
sion Of the Fifty-seventh congress will
u President Roosevelt no such feel
ing as was implied in the remark of
Mr.. Cleveland. On the contrary he viii
be glad that the representatives of the
American people are again assembled to
consider the questions affecting the In
terests and welfare of the nation and
will welcome the opportunity to COM
municate to the national legislature his
views on those questions. ReahSing his
great duties and responsibilities, instead
of feeling that he has congress ION his
hands" It will be the highest satsfac-
tion to him to be again in communica-
ton and in cooperation with the re-
publican leaders for the promotion OF
the principles and policies of his party
He is on good terms with all of them.
Whatever disagreement there may be as
to any particular policy, there is No
Quarrel and no a%ntipathy. The president
has proper respect for congress as a CO
ordinate branch Of the government and
in return congress respects the admin
istration. The good feeling that pre-
vailed during the first session Will I'M
doubtedly continue through the second
We have heretofore considered the out
look for legislation at this session and
nothing has since transpired to change
the prospect. This is that not very
much will be done beyond the passage
of the appropriation bills. There is
promise of some legislation relating to
the trusts and we think there should
be, but many congressman believe 1t
will be impracticable. 1t is certain that
there will be no interference with the
tariff and no currency legislation, so
that in regard to these matters the
business and financial interests of the
country have nothing to fear.

eign markets. IL is usually resorted to
when the manufacturer has on hand an
"lnconvenient surplus, which he VIII get
rid of at a cut price in a less important
market rather han derange prices in his
permanent field of operations.
No such excuse can be found in the
present condition Of the steel industries.
Not only is there no inconvenient sur
plus, but production is VIGOROUSLY in
arrears of consumption. 1t is well
known that dependent domestic opera
tons Of great Importance are delayed
because Of pressure of demand for steel
supplies. 1t is no time for a concern
like the United States Steel company,
while maintaining prices in the domes-
tic market, to offer as a general policy
it's products at lower figures in foreign
markets. While it is true that such a
policy is identically the one followed
immemorially by the manufacturing in
terests of England, especially since it's
adoption of free trade, it is nevertheless
a fact that the tendency of the prac-
tice at this time would be to excite
hostility not only to our own manufac-
turers, but also to the system under
which they in common with the whole
country have prospered.

NEBRlSKA'S SCHOOL FUND PROBLEM.
The management of the trust funds
held by the state as an endowment for its
public schools and educational institu-
tons has for years constituted the most
perplexing problem confronting the peo-
pie of Nebraska. Up to this time every
effort to deal with this subject in a
rational manner has failed, notwith-
standing the fact that to the temptation
to use this money for private specula-
ton is traceable all the treasury scan
dals with which Nebraska has been so
~grievously afflicted.
While the chief obstacle unquestiona-
bly, lies in the constitutional provisions
restricting school fund Investments to
a narrow list of securities, these limita-
tions promise to prove more troublesome
in the future even than in the past.
The bonds in which the school moneys
have been invested are gradually be-
coming payable and when they are taken
up by the counties issuing them the pro
ceeds must be added to the ~uninvested
balance, swelling more and more the
idle money in the hands of the state
To amend the constitution,
granting that it is possible, will require
not less than three years, and in the
interval the conditions would be getting
constantly more aggravating unless
measures of relief are introduced by the
legislature or by the new treasurer on
his own account.
The Bee maintains now, as 1t has IN
the past. that there is nothing to pre-
vent the state treasurer from depositing
the school FUND balances together with
the other moneys in his possession anu
credlting the interest earned to the
school fund, the same as If it were paid
on investments in state warrants. The
Dresant treasurer has his school FUNDS
on denosit in various banks, some OF
them without the protection of depository
hond. This money is earning interest,"
which the treasurer asserts has all peen
turned into the treasury, but lhsteau
Of being credited to the school fund the
interest on the school fund deposits has
been Jumped in with the interest OF
current funds and poured into the gen
eral fund, out Of which the ordinary
EXPENSES of the state government are
Maid. This amounts to a diversion oil
money belonging to the school fund into
the general fund, which is certainly as
much a violation Of the constitution as
~ the deposit of the school funds IN
depository banks
II we must disregard constitutions
provisions, which all admit cannon pos
s,blv be strictly observed there Is nc
reason whatever why the school FUNDS
sbould not be managed from now Oh
on lines of sound business principles
without any more specious Juggling o

The comment that has been INDUCED
over the choice of a private secretary for
Governor Mickey is entirely uncalled for
and u~nwarranted. The private secretary
to the governor stands in confidential re-
lation to him and the selection should be
purely personal, subject only to condl-
tons requiring capacity for the work
and a reputation for integrity. If the
governor should be left free to exercise
his personal preference for any office 1t
should be for that Of private secretary.
The selection he has made of A. B. Allen
is eminently satisfactory to the public,
and those who know him will be disap-
pointed if the new secretary does not
make the governor an efficient and re-
liable aide.

The so-called nationalist party leaders
have agreed on a policy Of sheer obstruc-
tion to President Palma's administra-
ton. The Cubans seem not to under
stand the difference between a constitu-
tional opposition and fractional obstruc-
ton. Constitutional government as It
has been developed by the people OF the
north Of Europe, implies a spirit OF mod
Grafton which works out in compromise
policies. The Cubans have already
shown too man. signs of the radical
and intolerant temperament of the Latin
peoples among whom political opposition
prayitates toward seditiou on the
hand and tyranny on the other. Pas
sion keeps them tormented between die
tatorship and insurrection instead OF
permitting sober Judgment to use TO
iitical parties as the meat for forming

COMMISSION FOR THE ORIENT.

The creation of a commercial commits
sion for the Orient is again to be urged
upon the attention of congress. A bill
providing for such a commission is now
before n committee of the senate and
its author, Senator McCumber of North
Dakota. will make an earnest effort to
secure action upon it by the present
congress. The measure has received
the endorsement of commercial organiza-
tons in all parts of the country, showing
that manufacturers and exporters are
anxious that it should pass.
The proposition is not new, having
first been presented in a letter to the
senate committee on appropriations from
Secretary of State Day IN 1898. This
contemplated the appointment Of a COM
mission and the establishment of agen-
cies in the far east at which samples
of American manufactures might be ex-
hibited with a view of developing a mar
ket in that quarter of the globe for the
product of American industries. This
was suggested by the fact that several
European commissions were in the
highly satisfactory.
1t is quite probable that it would be
to the advantage of American trade
with the far east to have a government
exhibition of our manufactures, although
undoubtedly there are some who will
question whether this is a proper func-
ton of the government. Some two
a commission to China and Japan with
good results, but it is believed that only
by the authority of the general gov
eminent a such a commission be
of greatest service. Doubtless this
view is correct, but In any event we
shall not have the success in securing
trade hoped for until our manufacturers
are prepared to make goods such as the
eastern markets require. Evidence of
this is given in a recent report of the
United States consul general at Yoko-
hama, which shows that in cotton espe-
cially American manufacturers keep the
home demand and the home tastes too
closely in mind all the time. They sim
ply export their surplus product, ex-
pecting foreigners to want and buy just
what we do ourselves. This is h case
as to other countries than those of the
far east. An American doing business
In Russia, who is now here in the in
terest of trade with that country, says
he finds it the hardest kind of work to
get the American manufacturer to take
the slightest interest in matters Of de-
tail. 1t is not to be doubted that we
should have a much larger trade with
South America If our manufacturers had
more carefully considered the peculiar
needs and wants Of the southern mar
kets.
Commercial commissions may be SER
yiceable in promoting trade-European
experience with them shows this. But
the effectiveness Of their work neces-
sarily depends upon the manufacturers
Of a country consulting the special
wants and tastes of the people to whom
they would sell. This, it appears, Amer
lean manufacturers generally have not
vet shown a disposition to do.
