coin, April lo, 1864, provided for a
convention to form constitution,
to be held July 4, of that year; but
the opposition to statehood was so
strong that, on assembling, the con-
vention adopted a resolution to ad-

In violation, or derogation, of the
enabling act, the legislature submit

a popular vote, and doubtful ma

The convention Of 1871 was held
for the purpose of substituting for
this inadequate instrument an ade-

constitution disclosed a new popular
political temper and the attitude Of
The Bee toward it was the precursor
of its political career.
The Bees Firm Policy.
The most effective feature of The
Bees editorial page was the arsenal
Of facts adduced in it, supplied or
inspired by its founder. This meth
cd was employed, wildly, at the
outset, in opposition to the objec-
tons. many of them specious, of
the Herald and the Republican to
the new constitution.
Insgeneral, the North Platte sec
ton, largely dominated by Omaha,
was against the constitution and the
South Platte for it; but it was beat

The total majority against it was
Gal; Nemaha county's majority
against it was 67-attributable main

Enter---The Omaha Bee

Though the Omaha Daily Bee"
was first printed on June 1o, 1871, it
announced in the issue of July u,
that heretofore it had been a
gratuitous advertising medium, but
thcncefortll it was to be "a news
paper in the true meaning OF the
word" Which it very truly was.
The multitudinous enemies it made
in keeping its pledge, which con-
stituted its superlative success,
avowed that its chief characteristic
lay in vigorously stretching this true
meaning. But the significant fact is
that conditions were such that this
way. and this only, lay success
which. as Balzac has it, ruins more
men than it makes"
1t serves my historical purpose to
point out that the powerful political
Nebraska cabal. mostly at Omaha,
by supporting the continued con-
servative or reactionary regime,
which had now come to be called
Grantism. thus offered themselves up
to the Rosewater ruination. The
need of curtailing space is sufficient
reason for passing by the more
speculative phase of the question
whether these reactionists, in Rose
waters sight, were righteously
ruined. However, the fact itself is
suggestive.
The Economic Phase.
The economic urge of social con-
dtions in 1871 is revealed in the con-
test over the constitution in that
year, in which the Baby Bee took a
characteristic part.
The first. constitution Of the state
was a barebones on which expectcn,
benefciaries of the superior honors
and emoluments of statehood hung
their hopes.
Experience Estabrook made a
statement. printed in the Weekly
Herald, that it was compiled by a
committee of nine lawyers appointed
by the legislature. 1t was rightly
asserted by others that they were
self-appointed. The instrument was
made as near like the organic act oi
the territory as possible, with the
same small number in the legislature
and meager salaries for state officers

Great Britai n was the main Influence
working against values.
On the opening some ll;tie selling came
from those traders who bought late yes
terday on the rumors that the British
coal strike had been settled. Furiher
selling was encouraged by The poor Liver
pool market and by the disappointing
showing OF the census bureau report for
March on American mills, placing con-
sumption at 1888 bales. which was about
1900 bales under general expectations.
The market was steadied at the decline
by cabesrams from Liverpool saying that
Manchester was doing better business
ald reporting signs that the boycott in
India against British goods was breaking
up.
Small recoverles were, made from time
to- time. but none OF them lasted. Some
of these smnll up;urns. were due to the
continued rain over the belt, moisture
being regarded as detrimental In most
sections. From Texas there were con-
tinued accounts of planting being held
UP by wet soil. AID in some important
sections OF the State II was said that
