He did not suspect that such men as Gov.

Moroover, Sena- tor Myers is not s Paddock man, and Carns, Thurston & Co. have very cun- ningly set their trap to draw him into the Nance dragnet. Myers can, withal, do very little damage iu the railroad committee, even if he should kick in the traces, bocause tho majority have obligations to discharge to the railroad man- agers - either on old fcores or for tatare fasors. In the distribution of favors the U. P ryndicate took rpecial paius to punish those who were abao- lately opposed to them, and a good deal of muschief will result from their malice. Mr. Doane, who Is one of the ebleat lawyers in the state, and & man of expe.fence in leglsltion, was omit ted from the committeo on judiciary and all other important committos, but he was assigned on the committes on military affairs and on the commit- teo on mines and mining, where he will have hardly anything to do. It in le the Nance, Carns snd Tharaton syndicate will discover they committed a blunder in sssigning Dosne on the military committee, when the bloodloes and costly cam- paign of the Nebraska militia in Oumahs is broaght before the legisla- ture for settlemont. Gen. VanWyck, who is now serving a third term in the senate, and has boen a member of congress through two terms, rocsives the same scurvy trestment. He is mado cheirman of the committee on eduoation, which has very little or nothing to do, ax all matters pertain- ing to the university go to the commit- tee on university; wheress Gere, who haa_notoriously been tho champlon of all jobbers and corporate monopo- olier, has not only been made chair- man of the committee on finance, bat is assigned to almost every committee of any importance in the senate, in- cluding the committees on judiciary, railroads, privileges snd elections, state prison, and university. Senator Daily, who s also an expert leg tor, and a man of considerable expe- rience in political affai ade chairman of the committee on inter- nal improvements, which vulgar wags have called the Committe on Gats and because he fs not over friendly to the Nance-Carns syndicate, and _was largely instrumental fn_tho dofeat of | their coparcener, Church Howe, he ls pretty severely snubbed. CREDULITY IMPOSED ON. T regret excocdingly that Mr. Shedd has yielded to outside pressure in the making up of his committeos, and thereby neutralized the victory won over jobbers and monopolista by his election to the speakership. I regard Mr. Shedd as an honest and well- meaning legilator, who earnestly de- sires o do what is right and just, but he is comparatively inexperienced and lacks penetration into the designs of cuuning politiciaos and venal jobbers, (Right here let me brand as a down. right fabrication the statement of the Lincoln letter-writer of The Owmaha Herald who asserts that 1 tried to bulldoze Mr. Shedd into crowding Chorch Howe out of all important committees. The fact is, the name of | Church Howe never passed my lips during my intercourse with Mr, cidedly weak, and I fear will not with- stand “the pressure that will b rought upon it.

Claflin sad that ho did not belleve that it would bo possible to float & bond at three per cent. unless the bond was to bealoog one. e dida't speak for the hankers, but he ap ke of the opintons of business men. The difference between threo per cent. for fiva years and three and one balf per cent. would be equai to twoand one. half per cent.

He called atteution to the fact that for the year euding In October lust, the urer paid_over the three million dollars for privilege of applying ono hundred and eight millions of its cash to the exten- sion of the debt Mr. Frye ssid that before the recess he had voted in the ways and moans committee for a bond at 3 per cent. and interest, but during the va- cation he had conenlted with business men and was now convinced that we could mot place 3 per cent. bonds unless it was to rua 30 years. Mr. Keafer proposei to amend by fixing the rate of interest at not to ex- ceed 4 per cent., 80 as to leave it in the discretion of the secretary of the treasury to fix the rate of interest ao- cording to the needs of the business. The discussion ¢n the funding bill was continued for some time, until at 4 o'clock Mr. Wocd tried to bring the question to a vote, but Mr. Weaver and other greenbackers insisted upon further debate, whoreupon Mr. Wood moved that the committee rise, his in- tention being to ask the house to cat off all further debate. After the com- mittee had risen, s motion was made to limit the debate to one minute, and Weaver, representing the opposition to the funding bill, moved to adjourn.
