The campaign for equal taxation is not
yet finished. 1t cannot be fought through
successfully with a mayor and council
that are bound in advance to do the
bidding of the corporations. 1t can be
fought through successfully with the
help Of a mayor aud council who have
the independence to stand up for the
people as against the corporations.

OF this fact Mr.. Benson cannot be
ignorant. namely that his candidacy for
mayor is projected by the men who
tried to buy control of the republican
city convention with corporation Doodle
n actually succeeded in bribing one
delegate elected for Moores to betray
his trust by going over to his oppo-
nents. A nomination resting on bribery
and corruption is hardly a thing to be
proud of.

1t is intimated that the merger case
may not be appealed to the supreme
court for fear that tribunal might not
only affirm the decision of the lower
court, but even go to further extremes
that would be embarrassing to future
operations Of the merger magnates. The
points in dispute will have to go up to
the supreme court for final adjudication
some time and they might as well be
decided now as later.

II should not permit the public to know.
The fact appears to be that definite in
formation can be had rs to the fate Of
the convention only when the Colombian
congress c%onvenes. which will not be
for some little time. The chances are
favorable to the ratification of the
treaty, though It is pretty certain to en-
counter opposition, but how formidable
this will be there is as yet no irdica-

Commissioner of Immigration Sargent
is quoted as testifying to the high class
of immigrants who have been coming
into this country during the past year.
Previous commissioners have usually
been constantly complaining that unde-
sirable foreigners were coming through
the gates and, instead of stopping them,
asking congress to revise the laws so as
to make admission more difficult, not
w~ithstanding the fact that all the really
Objectionable classes were barred by the
existing statutes. II the immigration
now is fully up to the standard we have
a right to expect, it is to be hoped there
will be an end to the clamor for still
further legislative restriction of immi-
grafton.

Colonel Bryan will have to look after
his fences in Tennessee, where the state
senate, still in session, has just adopted
resolutions endorsing the speech on the
negro question delivered by former Pres
ident Cleveland. 1t is dangerously neal
the treason line for a state supposed to
be welded to Organism to throw bou-
quets in the direction of Cleveland.

Remember hat the privileged cor
porations want "a safe man" for mayor.
Remember also that the corporation
managers are all united against Frank
e.. Moores. They would prefer either Of
his competitors to Moores. That is the
reason the common people who have
no special privileges, but want justice
and fair play should rally round
Moores.

Only about 5000, 600. 900, It is estimated,

great work Of developing the park system
OF Washington and the carrying into full

far ahead Of all others, the wide world
over. in the number and magnihcence OF its
public edihces. the harmony and vast scale
OF its civic splendors, and the completeness
OF it's development on the side of ordered
beauty. The sum seems much too great to

The Colorado School of Mines without
a faculty is still in much better shape
than 1t would be without students. 1t

be TO replace the student body If it had
suddenly taken its departure.

President Parry of the National Man
ufacturers' association is hardly going
about it in the right way to bring about
economic peace in the industrial world;
on the contrary, he is doing much to dis
credit the organization he represents by
uncalled for attacks upon the labor
unions. The National Manufacturers
association should have a president who
exercises tact.

Whatever strikes the workingmen Of
Omaha may feel forced to engage in,
1t Is to be hoped they will remember at
all times that they can gain more by
orderly behavior than by violence and
lawlessness. Omaha workingmen have

citizens, which they must maintain at
all hazards.

There is no law against boiling, but

was often predicted that the seat OF ma
