The leading digoitaries of the Wa- Dash, St. Louis & Pacific railway ar- rivedgin this city at 9 o'clockThursday morning, having comeup to the Trans- for hotel at Lake about & o'clock last evening, where they re- wnained over night. They have been oxpected at this end of the road for several days, and as stated yesterday, the object of the visit is of the great- est importance to Omaha. The party, which registered at the Withnell House yesterday, where they were found by our reporter at dinner, included: Solon Humphreys, pres dent of the company, and Mrs, Hum- phreys; A L. Hopkins, first vice- president; Geo. L. Dunlap, director; John C. Gault, goneral manager; Thomas McKissop, genersl su- J. W. Blanch- ard, superintendent, James F. Howe, eecretary, and Geo. O'Hara, private sccretary of Mr. Huomyphreys. They left Chicago on Friday last by aspecial train over the go division of the Wabash road, ding divectly to Peoria, where they remained two days looking after the travsfer to the Wabash of the Toledo, Peoria and Warsaw, under the agreement of the recent lease. They then proceeded to Keokuk, Tows, where they met reprasentatives of the Missouri, Towa and Nebraska, another recent accestion to the Wabsh systom. A conforence washad withthe ‘managers of thatline regarding the im- mediateextension of the road from present terminus to a connection with the Omaha extension of the Wabash. This connection will be made st a point ne enandoah, Towa: When completed, which be in the course of & few months, this will give the Wabash axair Jine from Chicago to Omaha, which, it is eaid, will be asshort & route as auy now in exis- tence between this city and Chicago.

Sinco the state fair a good many representative houses of this city have got by the ears over the award of premiums aud are havicg it back and forth pretly warm. It is comforting 1o note that in one case, atleast, there was so cloan a victory that no one has disputed the palm, and the recipients of the honors have 1aid back on their dignity and with good cause congratulated themselves that they were not only succersful in competition, but free from all embar- rassing disputes. We refer in this article to Fleming & Co., the well kaown grocers, corner of Douglas and Fourteenth streets, who came out with fiying colors. And no wonder. ,| They made a fine Qieplay of .| Plant’s “Extra” flour, which has been eold in all the large cities throughout the United States for the past thirty years, and is the spe- - | cialty of George P. Piant & Co. This flour has been eold in Omsha for twelvo vears by Bean & Hoitel, and their successors, Fleming & Co., agents. The exhibit at the State Fair took first premium in competi- tion with flours selling at 20 per cent. more money. Fleming & Co. are also agents for some of the finest dairies and creameries in the state, and took first and second premium on butter. Through the sirength of this success they obtained the agencies for three or four additional creameries. Thesame firm received honorable mention for | their - exhibit of canned goods and soap displey, and tock the first prem ium on cheese and crackers, as well | Their success is certainly extremely flattering, aud as usual has resuited in making them famous among the Jesd- ing Omaha business men, e i n t FOUL PLAY. Mysterious Disappearance of An lowa Boy in Ne- braska. His Father in Omaha Investi- gating the Cas The cveningtrainWednesday brought among other passengers a gentleman from Swan, Towa, who visited Omaha ona sad errand. M. S. W. Alesan- derisa lumber dealerin that place, his family, besides his wife and him- self, consisting of two sons and a daughter. One of his sons, the young- er, a youth of 17 year years of age, loft home on tho 5th of Soptember without saying anything of his fature whereabouts to his parents. At first they were alarmed at his absence, but learsing on the 11th that he was in DasMoines, where he had a sister resid- ing, and had been seon at the state fai., their fears wero quieted and hav- ing nothing in particular for the boy to do et the time his father thought best tolst him stay until ho got ready to comeFhome. On Monday morning last the father received by express from Nebrasks City a prckage containing an suto- graph album and s letter, the former acticle recognized as having belonged to his son. The lotter was, verbatim, as follows: September 24th, Deaw Str: T have a verry hard task to do—that is to iniorm you of death C. W. Alexander.

Mason, John Berry and William Davis, Ne- braska City, Nebraska, to the effect #hat a young man named C. W. Alex- auder, formerly of Indianols, this state, was drowned September 22d, in the Missouri river in that vicinity, His body had not been recovered at Iast accounts. The notice in the Register was read within an hour after the receipt of the letter, and, Mr. Alexshdet at once started for Nebraska City, having first graphed to tho three parties re- ferred to in the notice for further in. formation, He rereived iio reply and subsequenlly Jearned that no such men had ever been heard of in Ne- The information was veyed to the Register by mail, i bythe throenames givelt above. s Kebaaska City, Mr. Alex- ding no such man as Mason, ed first at the office of The News, he mayor, Chief of other officials, none srd of any recent t vicinity. river was wvisited anl tie river men were 8s iznorant on the subject as the rest, but informed him that there were no boats there but the gov- eroment boat and the mail transfer boat, and ascertained defitely that boat ridin en done on the river on the da young Alexander was said fo have b.en érowned, Mr. Robert Payne, the express agent, stated that the letier and album were forwarded by a young man, about cigh'ocn years of age, throvgh that oflice, who said nothing of any ono being drowned, and when asked wiat the ontents of the pack- wore, replicd, “only papers.” He had called for an envelope, which he directed himself in a full round hand, whie the litter within was written in a very fine cramped and scarcely legible style. The express agent however, informed him that one of the Omaha papers had recently contained a motice of the finding of =& suit of clothes conesrning which there was some mystery, and accordingly Mr. Alexan- der came at once to this city. He called carly this morning at the Bex oftice, and was sent by our reporter to the London meat market, corner Burt and 19¢h, the manager of which had found the suit of clothes in ques- tion, in the river bottom above town. He however informed Mr. Alexander that the suit had been identi- fied as belonging to a young man who was arrested and lodged in jail a fow nights azo in a demented condition. This beiog the only possible clue which brought the father here and proving that he was on the wrong trail, he made no further search but left this afternoon. He is firmly of the opinion that there has been foul play in the case and will do his utmost to unravel the wystery. He is tn possession of some facts which we are not permitted to publish at prascnt, which point strong- 15 to the correct solution of the matter. Tho missing man is, as stated, 17 years of age, weighs about 140 pound, had blue eyes and wore when he left home adark suitof clothes, with a light, round crowned, mixed straw hat. Avy information concerning his whereabouts, dead or alive will gladly be received by his parents and family, his mother and sisters belng now at home ting with cruel anxiety some news of the lost one. —— PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS.

The Facts as Brought Out in the Case of Rush vs. Valentine. Valentine in Court as a Comi- mon Swindler. 1t is an unpleasant duty on the part of & journal to arraign any man pro- fessing the same political faith, and particularly if that man bo a standard bearer of the party, or has received its confidence and support. But it is a duty, nevertheless, and Tir: BEE will fearlessly perform that duty, oven at the risk of receiving the censare of friends, or the denunciation of parti- zan leaders. We are actuated by a broader and deeper motive than the ‘mere temporary agzgrandizement of an individual, or ‘even a temporary vic- tory of the republican party. We de- sire to_keep Intact the principles of republicanism in all thefr pristine purity, and keep untarnished the splendid record made by a republican government these past twenty years. It is this that moves us to raise our i ainst the ro-elaction ot K. K. jon, to fill which he does not possess a single qualifica- tion,—neither learning, talent, states- manship nor judgment. We con- sider that tho representative of Ne- braska should be a man possessing ies, and capable of honor- ing the position, rather than that the poition should honor him, We have plentysuch men in the young, vigorous state of Nebraska. Men whose voices would be NEARD AND RESPECTED in the balls of congress. But were Valontine cbjectionable only because of u want of ability, we should not complain. We propose to lay facts before our readers, and we have no dotrbt that public opinion will sustain 118, no matter how much eriticism wo may feceive from blind partisans, ot selfish hypocrites, who have sought the nomination of Valentine for their own personal ends. We will first stato the facts involved in the case of Rush vs. Valentine, a contest which had its inception with Val's early history as an officer of the district land office at West Point. 1In Uctober, 1850, Johtt Nlush; now deputy treasurer of this county, set- tled upon & quarter section of land tear Elkhorn station; for the purposo of making it hix fniirp home. Ho had strong reasons for belioving ! it belonged to the United States g ernment, and this belief was strength* ened by the fact that Hugh L. Dodge had pre-empted a quarter section of the same section, some time previous- 1y, to secure which he had to pay . A DRIBE QF FIFTY Dot sns! Tt appedrs that after Rush settled pon the land he made due inquiry of roal-cstate agents in Omahaand, clse- whera to determine the teal state of his Rlaith, Pt iy prevalling iin- pression was that it belonged to the stato of Nebraska, although notin a school section. This belief was not surprising, as the sequel will show. On the ebeiting of the 47th of Novem- ber 1869, D. A. Valentine came down from West Poiut, accompanied by his brother E. K. Valentine. They pur- chised lumbar at Fremont, to build a house upon Rush's claim, and E. K. the recister, proceeded to Omaba, D. A Valentine went immediatoly to Rush's house which was being buil by & man named Holmes, He inqui ed of Holmes who was putting up the house, on his, Val's,,Jand. The caz- penter told him, and {nformed him as %o where Rush might be found,, Up- on hearing of the new claimant; Rush sent his fathor-in-law, Mr. mes Feiny, to accertain upon what title he based his claims. D. A entine informed Ferny that he, Val- entine, had bought thisland *‘a menth or two aza" and that ho had his war- antee deed oFrICE t Point, and that if_he wanted further information he might go to West Point, where he could obtain d Forry started for We Point next moruing, and appeared in the land uffice on the morning of No- vember 19th. OF course the register, E K. Valentine, was absent, which caused Rush to ask whether the re- ceiver, Uriah Briner, could act for Valentine in the absetics of the lattet. Being anewered in tne aflirmative, Rush offered to file & pre-emption vp. on tho ne } 18, 15, 11. Bruner at the record, and ater careful exam- ination informed Rush that the land in question was not subject to ontry— that it iwas school land. Rush was naturally puzzled, and the receiver, sceing that he manifested doubt, we suppose, showed him the record, which, Rush swears in his testimony, was “marked with a large red S, Bruner said this denoted school land, and therefore that the land conld neither be pre-empted nor homestead- ed. Rushtold Bruner the conversa- tion held between D. H. Valentine and James Ferry, on the evening of the 17th. Bruner could account for alentine’s conduct in no way only by that the latter must bo UNDER A MISTAKE, that he must have meant some_other tract, §Before leaving the district 1and office, Rush said that he wished Bruner to remember his application to filo, and why it was refused. And Bruner is said to Aave promiscd, _Now, let usturn to E. K. Valen- tine, who had gone to Omaha, on the seventeenth. The records show that D. A. Valentine's filing of the dis- puted land dates on November seventeenth. How in the name of common rense could this have been done? But_ here it is, and duly signed by E. K. Valentine, register, We can account for this sirange phenomencn, only by one of two theories: First—The instrument must have been inade and signed be- fore the new claimant ever stood upon the land —for it was at least six o'clock in the evening before the train reached Elkhorn. S:cond—It must bave remained in_blank form in the pociet of E. K. Valeutine until he reached Omaha, and then, be- Jisving that the lumber which he had ru:chased at Fremont was transferred to the ground, he wrote out his brother's ‘‘doclaratory etatement.” Take either horn of the dilemuna, ‘wasn'c it RATHER ‘‘CROOKED,” T appears that Rush, having tailed to elicit any information in the local land office, wrote to the commissioner of lands in Washington, who promptly informed him that the disputed tract was government land. The commis- sioner also enclosed a letter to the register of the West Point land office, which he requested Rush to forward. 1n reply to this E. K. Valentinewrote to Rush, acknowledging that the land really government land, but that it had been erconecusly recorded be- fore he (Valentine) had come Into office. Is it not strange thst Mr. Valentine, having discovered an error his records, was not able to correct it? Isit notstranger still, that he never told hus colleague about 1¢? And is not mysterious that Valentine's brother was the first, and only one, to whom the secret was made kocwn ! These are facts, taken from the court record, and Mr. E. K. Valentire is the republican nominee frr congress, and Mr. E. K. Valentine surely is AN HONOBABLE MA¥, | Bat let us see further. In the letter which he wrote Rush, he promited that his brothers being & claimant to the land, would not affect any title that Rush micht have, and to show his impartiality, he would date Rush’s filing, a8 of the nineteenth of Novem- ber, no matter what time thercafter he, Rush, would make application for thesame. But Rush’s fling is dated January 12, 1870. And yet Mr. Val- entine isan honest man! In 1872, the land courts having decided that Rush’s title was null, because of his failure to file within thircy days from date of settlement, a patent was is- sued to D. A. Valentine, and the next step wes_ the payment of the govern- ment price, which was four hundred dollars. "But Mr. Valentine was equal to the emergency. He went to Mr. Millard, of this city, and borrowed the money, giving a mortgage upon Rush’s land, therefor. It must be borne in mind that Rush had not yet given up the fight. He had some gnt and a great desl of FAITH IN THE LAW. Did Val., inform .Mr. Millard that back of the patent which. he triam- phantly exhibited, therowas another claimant? 1f he Mr. Millard must have actad in stracge contrast to the business qualities which charac- zo him. For he lent the money to Valeutine, and took the mortgage. not a cent of whirh, principal or interest, wo are credibly informed, has ever been paid. But this isnot all. Va notevidently a good tax-payer, s! though heis an honorable man. - He never paid a cent of tax upon this land, thepatent to which was issued to him—or bis brother— eight years azo. 80 to keap alive a forlorn hope, Mr. Millard badrecently to purchase thetox-title amounting to some two- hundred dollars. « The foregoing is a brief outline of one of the most infamous frauds that we have heard of in a long time. But others equally startling will be told, and then as wo said above let people judge of cur motive in opposing E. K. Valentine, A man’s character milst be examin- ed as much by his desires and designs, as in his accomplishments of them, and wo are ritistied that no man can say Valeitino is a 6t person to fepres- ent a camp of Gypsies, much ldss a constituency like that of Nebraska.

James Neville fjrresided, and after the Garfield and Arthur clab had #1wg the Marching Song aud; in re- Agonse to an eitéore; “Shoutiiig fof Garfield and Arthur,” he iniroduced tho spesker of the evering, Hon. T, M. Marquette, of Lincoln. T speniof egan by saiig that aguin, as for the past twenty-four years, we see arrayed ogainst each other as rivals for power, the republi- dan snd delocratic parties. Since their first contest great chinfes hava taken place, and he would devote his time to the presentation of the issues now at stake between the two partics, and thea leave 1t to his hearers to choose between the two, which they Would serve. Taking up the financial isshe, the speakef coth- pared the plans of the two partles for levying imposte, claiming that the republican perty favored levying dties oaly ofi the lukuries of life, while the democrats, if they followed their ol customs aud traditions, would tax tho floor barrel as well as the whieky harrel. He recalled the ac- tion of Gen: ral Grant in prosecuting the whisky and recited the con- dition of things in the eouth botween the revenue collectors aund the moon- shinere; and asserted that not only the levy of taxes, but the collection as well, was safest in the hands of the re- publican party. The relative attitudes of the two parties in securing freedom of the ballot and fair elections was reviewed, and tho speaker declared that never had the republican party tried to thwart the known will of the majority. He characterized tho act of the demo- cratic party in crying out fraud at the electoral commission, which was a democratic measure, a8 & violation of their contract, which stampod them as almost non compos mentis and In need of a guardian, He considered at Jength the pros and cons of the de- sire of the democracy to enforce the constitutional amendments, which however willing Hancock may be to do, tho democratic party certainly have shown their determination not to recognize. Mr. Marquette referred to the wonderful strides made by the country under the_control of the re- publican party,and tothe fact that the democratic advances are generally ina backward direction. Hano: ck’s so-called statemanship and his career in Louisiana were reviewed to the isfactiof of the audience and the credit of the speaker as a sound reas- oner. The _Glee Club sang the “Gray- back Yell” and *“When Garfield blows his trumpet in the morning,” and with three cheers for Mr. Marquette the meeting adjourned.
