Valentine had a very large andience st the Omaha Academy of Music Tuesday night. A large ma- jority had come thers to hear whathe had to say in defense of his disreputa- ble record. They came away con- vinced that E. K. Valentine hal no defense to make, because the charges against bim could not be succassfully proved. It was to have been ex- pected that Valentine, who represents thiscommonwealthin congress,and who now secks re election, would at least refer briefly to his public services; that he would endeavor to vindicate his back pay grab, and try to con- vince his constituents that he is worthy of their confidence. This is certainly what the people, whose en- dorsement Valentine sesks, had a right to expect. In this they were dis- appointed. Valentine confined him- self entirely to the discossion of the national party issues. Upon these great iesues the fifty thousand republicans of Nebraska are all agreed. The fundamental principles of the republican party and the merits of its candidates for the presidency have be- come household words in Nebraska. The hundred and thirty republi- can papers of Nebraska have thrown more light on the national issue every d the'railroads sh:1l not arrogate to themeelves the right to dictate who shall govern the couniry, who shall make oar laws and who shall sit as judges overus. The people of Ne- brazka will never submit to have this state transformed into a mere pro- vince of Jay Gould like the territory of Wyoming, where the people are mere vassals and where no man dares to become & can- didate, from constable to congressman, who hasn’t sworn alle- giance to the monopolies. The great body of our people are agriculturists who draw their sustenance from the soil and do not depend on the favers of railroad princes, but will insist up- on having their rights even if they Lieve to iucar the displeasure of the editors whose names appear on the payrolls of Jay Gould’s railrcads, Tar Republican thinks that Valen- tine's specch in the Academy of Mus- ic, was a surpriso even fo his frionds. We may remark, in passing, that it wasaatill greater surprise to his eno- mies. They chought he would at lesst make somo attempt to explain away the damuing charges, which have boen made against his character, and the proofs of which are matters of rec- ord. But the valorous Valentine weevle and the Hessian fly, and the chintz bug and the army worm, that the husbandman should curse the ad- ‘ministration and tura to us. Lo, the more we prayed for distrees the more there wuz prosperity. The crops were good, and the prices therfor bully, and whatcan a_dime- krat do when there is no trouble? We preached hard times and they shook gold and silver under our nosss. We eaid to the labores. lo, you are oppressed, and he jerred, showin uv us a savings’ bask book. The smoke up the farnace was to us the smoke of the torment. The clang uv hammers, and the wheeze uv the engine wuz our fun- eral knell. We sent Blackburn and other briga- deers to the north, but the people puy their tongues in their cheeks and wa; ged their heads in kerision. = Wened lo, we hev a yoonyun soljer for our candidate, 3 And they ansered, sayin, verily be hez changed his yoouiform. They siathered Greeley and they hev cracked Hancock betweeu their thomb nails. We offered em free trade and they ansered, sayin give us a tarifl. We offered em soft money, but they replied, sayin no soft meney in ourn. We offered to take the government off their hands, but they sed it was doin very well now thank yeo. Gone 1s the postoftices, and the custom-houses shel never know us agin. ‘Gone is the hope uy penshuns and thought discretion was the better part week than Valentine could shed upon it if hemade ten speeches aday for the remainder of his life and lived to become as old as Methusaleh. What the people wanted and what they had a right to demand of their congreseman is an an explicit defini- ®ion of his position on the matters that conoern their welfare. They wanted to hear from his lipsa denial of the grave charges of corruption and jobbery that coufront him in the columns of Tne Bes. They wanted to hear him define his position on the pledze made by the convention that re-nominated him, to legis'ate in con- gress agajnst abuses and extortions by railnay corporations. On all these vital lssues Valentine rematned as mum as an oyster, and the verdict of the peopls who heard him is—that he stands self-convicted of sll that has beon cherged againet him. ENEMISS AND FRIENDS. The position taken by tho managers of the railway monopolics as defined by their orgaus is, that every man who favors the legislative restriction of railwaye, every man who opposes facturers of this city. The meeting wan very orderly, and ‘addresses were made by some of the most respectod citizens of Omaha. The next day the Omaha Republican opened its mud batteries on Mr. Doae for daring to praside overa public meeting of tax- pavers. From that day to this the monopoly henchmen have not forgot- ten him. His nomination to the state senato ia opposition to Coutant has aroused their wrath and they taunt him with the grave crime of having favored the citizens’ movement of two years ago, which, in their opionion, disqualifies him fr. people of Douglas county in the next Iature, a representing the o Tax recent convention in Chicaco ‘which organizad the National Farmers’ Ailiance of the United States has at- tracted much attention both from railroads and their organs, and from producers who see in the movement wome hepe of an early release from their troubles. The convention has naturally awakened a howl of indigaa- tion from the brass collar brigade throughout the country. They imme- diately began their old tactics of en- deavoring to blacken the character of its members, and assailed them avd their Followers as grangers and com- munists who dared to raise their voice ainet the rights of ‘“‘aggregated capital.” People were iuformed that railroads had made the west and changed a desert nto a garden. They were told that the “railroads alone reudor the products of the il ‘of tangible value,” pro- viding a market for produce and uveunes of trade for business men. A halfarath s often more ds than an open falsshood. one will deny that the railroads hase been of immense advantsge to the producers, most men will insist on looking on the other side of the ques- tion. - The producers have brought the railroads into existence, in mauy cases built the roads by bonds evied on their own property and now wuj portit by their produce, travel aud tratlic. -To some thinkers it may also appear that tie products of the wngers lands alone render the roads of tangible value in many cases, aud the fact may also be suggested that nothing hms"such an imporiant influence on railroad securiti tle annual crop report. The railroads auust look at the isue frm Doth sides. They cannot afford any longer to ignore the mutuality of ben- wiits which exists between them and the producers. The people are begin- g to awaken to the urgent necossi- 1y of immediate legislative action. It is mot alone tae grangers who are fremost in agitating the subject. The merchants of New York are msking the question of freight tariffe and rail- road discrimination an important issue §a the presentcampsign. The slander +nd calumny of the railroad orgaps il predispose no honorsbly minded person to cast his inflaence on the side of the extortionate monpolies. The abuse of the brass-collared Lri ade is 1vied too indisoriminately on houest yranvers, journalists and repatable saerchants not {o disgust the mass readers and thinkers. The ¥ silronds are no respecters of persone. The Farmers’ Alliance #nd the grang- ©ra of of the west are denounced by 1he very same parties who called the New York chamber of commerce *‘communistic” because they protest- ©1agaivet the freight discrimination 4 acticed by the New York Central, # dany one who dares to raisehis ¥ vice against the oppression, robbery 21d extortion of the giant monopo- 1o may expect to be deluged with rom the exemption of railrosd property from taxation, and every man who re- fuses to become the mere vasaal of these corporations, is an enemy to the railroads. They go further even than that. They denounce and placard every editor who doesn’t wear the brass-collar, every public man who re-- fuss to obey their dictations, as pub eremies, plotters against the public good, incendiaries and communiste, The wanagers of monopolies in this section, pursuethesame tactics pursued byrailwaymonopoliesallovertheunion with this exception that in the west they sre more inzolent, overbearing ad tyrannical. When the New York chamber of commerce last year, after into the duscrimina- pushing an investigation abuses and extortionate tion of the trunk lines contreing in that cily, demanded legislative re- s'rictions that wou'd curb the greed os the Gould’s Vanderbilt's Scott's, the railroad orgens in New York and elsewhere, denounced the merchants of New Yorkas a body of communists. A few weeks ago tho National Farmers' Allisnce met in Chicago and adopted resolutions de- manding the regulation of inter state commerce by congrees and the enact ment of 'laws by the various state legislatures that would compel the railaays to deal fairly by all their patrons, they were blackguard- ed as fanatics] grangers and enemies of the country’s progress. It one could believe the railroad oracles, this country would still have been a great desert if it had not been for the fos- tering care of the Jim Fisks, Jay Goulds and other railroad wreckers. Now, we apprehend that the capital- ists of the world, who mean to earn a fair and reasonable profit for their in- vestments, would supply this country with all the railroads she needs if the stock gamblers, who wish to accumu- late millious in a few years, were all dead. But why do these monopolies brand every mar who insists on rea- sonable rates, and equitable taxation of all property, aud oppoees discrimi- nation and favoritism, as an enemy of the railroads? Would a man who opposes diserim- ination and uofairness in the postal servicobean enemy of the government! Tie people of the United States under the acis of congress pay internal reve- nue duties on certain articles of mer- chandie. Would any merchant who demanded the same taxation on his merchandise that was given to mer- chants in a like business, be a traitor to his country,a communist and sn enemy to the public welfsre! Are not the public highways,ckartered by con- gress, and the various legislatures, as much public carriers as the postal ser- vice and is & msn less a patriot be- and couse he insists wpon fair deal- ing and laws that will guasr- antee fair ftrestment to all the patrons of the railways! There are millions of men in America who think upon this subject just as we do. “They recognizs the value of railreads as agents of civilization, necessary to the development of our resources. They, in common with us, haveno de- sire to cripple the railroads, embarass their proper management as pablic carriers or check their extension through every part of our national do- muin. They sre, however, decidedly opposed to the establishment of a railroad empire within the American republic. Taey resist the dictum of railway kings, whose wealth has been wrung out of the hard earnings of the producers of the country, who they now seek to dis- franchise. The people who think with u, and they comprise all the people | the mud and flth of the hireiing ma- ealues of corrupt corporations, and their dirty tools, are not enemies excepting the cohorte of the railrosds | of the railways, but they simply ingist J of valor, VaLENTINE was desth on southern frands and elcquent on the national issue, but he didn’t seem to beanxious to explain why he swindled John Rush out of his homestead or de- frauded the state of Nebraska in the sum of $18; Mz.

Correspondeace of the Bee. 8. Pavw, Neb., October 26.—Since the railroad was built north from Grand Island to St. Paul a large amount of trade from the Middle Loup and tributaries has been inter- cepted, snd the towa is enjoying a a genuine boom. Whatever was lost to Grand Ilsland was gained by St. Paul, and the town has nearly doutled in size during the preeent year. One great acceesion to the place is the advent of several large capitalists, among whom H. Metcalf of Anamosa, and M. B. Atwater of Newton, Towa, are prominent. Theso gentlemen have just comploted one of the finest elevaiors in northern Nebraska, aud all day yesterdsy an_endle-s proces- sion of teams laden with wheat passed over the scales and up to the elevator. Mr. Atwater also owns a lumber yard that is doing a very lively busi- ness. S. Hollmen has retired from the hotel business, and J. C. Phillips, formerly in the business at Grand Island, now extends the welcome hand to weary travellers, who draw rein at the Hollman House. Local politics are quite_interesting here. A split in the republican rauks is likely to elect a democrat to the position of county clerk. During the past year Howard coun- ty has received many new settlers, many of them coming_directiy from Earopean countries. The land is of fine rolling prairie, well watered and adopted (o agricultural purposes. Jav. POSTOXFICE CHANGES In Nebraska during the week ending October 23d, 1880. Furnished for TaE BEg by Wm.

Valentine’s Back Pay Steal Ventilated by the Records. for $1875 Through the Legislature Under False Pretenses. Five years ago this summer E. K. U. S Grant from the West Point land office for crookedness, packed the re- publican convention of the sixth ju- the nomination of district judge. Val entine was a mere shyster, having no better standing at the bar than the redoubtable quack Mumey had among the members of the medical profession. When the returns. were canvassed by the state officers who constitute the state board of canvassers, 1he board awarded the certificate of election to Thomas L. Grifiey, the democratic can- didate. Valentine procured a batch of affidavits to show that there had been eome irregularity in the count. He then sccured the eervices of John C. Cowin, who sgreed and stipulated in advance that he would prosecute his claims beforo the courts without charge. The case Was brought to trial before the supreme conrt in November 1876, and the court rendered_the somewhat extraordinary decision that E. K. Val- entine had been elected judge of the sixth judicial district by a majority of two votes and & haif. Valentine soon hereafter took his seat on the bench acd drew his pay rezularly from the state treasury at the rate of 32563 a year during the entire time he served as judge. In ho summer of 1878, E.
