Editor, Pourricar frayds, like chickens, al- ways come home to roost. Tue flood-tide of female eloquence has sot in upon Nebraska, GrNeraL O'Briex had a solid delo gation from Douglas for the float senatorship, but the political banker swamped him. No MAX in the employ of a railroad, or any concern that is under the con- trol of railroads, should be sent to the legislature from Douglas county. PrNNSYLVANIA, Ohio, Indiana and New York will be lost this year to the republicans through the most egreg- lous political blunders, which the party has ever been guilty of. Pur Loran Clark in charge of the atate treasury and the state funds will be parcelled out among the worst set of jobbers and money sharks that in- foat this stat Pourricar banking is a dangerous pastime. It is linble to swamp tho most solid institutions and at the aame tizao subverts and corrupts the very foundation of our political tabrio, — Tuose who are not with us are against us, Those who siraddle the mouopoly issue and want to play good Lord good dovil ave in the monopoly oamp with one leg ready to go in with the other ax soon us election is over. Cnuren Hows announces through his paper that he won't hurt Weaver's candidacy. Weo nover heard of a dead man hurting alive candidute yet. Ohurch ought to put himself cn exhi- bition as a sccond hand political corpse, The investigations of cho Auatriau |} polico have unearthed a scoret society whose ramificatiors spread from Rome and Naples to Tricete, Its objoct is nihilistic and seeks the overthrow of all ruling sovereigus. Tar Utah commission hus finished its preliminary work, appoiuted its registrars and strickon off some 10,000 Mormon voters from the lists. But the church authorities aro choerfully naturalizing votors at tho rate of a thousand a week, and the balwarks of tho new Zion show no symptoms of falling at the sound of the ramshorn of the Gentile commission. —_— Tur Herald s still in - doubt about Gen. Van Wyck and his courso, and says it took two days for the “‘junior organ’” of the senator to catch it last breath, The Herald made the an- nouncement of the so-called ‘‘back down" Thursday morning, The very next issue of Trr Bee, Friday morn- ing, gave a flat contradiction to that statement. The Herald in partly cor. rect in one thing, General Van Wyck was under obligations to Mr, Ransem from Otoe, who was a cindidate for attorney-general, and he did not think best to desert him in the midst of the fight, Mr. Ransom was counted out by fraud, but ‘f thia thing had hap- pened when Goneral Van Wyck was at Fromont, his enemies in Otoo coue- ty would have laid the blame of Ran- som's defeat on his shoulders, This will throw sowe light on one of the reasons which impelled General Van Wyck to postpoue the date of meeting at Fremont. His wain reason has already been given, He left for Now York Friduy to attend a care in at home and in the fisld, to his compromising stand for the rights of the people against the corporations in ITHE TWC CANDIDATES Valentine represents the power, prestige and pluuder gang, who have usurped the machinery of the republi- can party in the Third district to ad- vanco the interests of corporate mon- opoly. Hon, M. K. Turner appeals for republican support as a candidate of the peaplo, nomindted on and pledged to a platform drawn in their intorests and backed by a record stands dia- against which criticism armed, Valentine asks for republican votes on the ground of a nomination by the majority of a party convention from which all contestants were excluded. Mr. Turner appears as a protestant against tho tyranny of railroad poli- ticians in rendering impossiblo any ex- pression of popular sentiment through what ought to be the legitimate party channels, Valentine comea before the people with a peronal history blackened by disheneety in public office and recking with the endorsement of jobbery and corruption during his incumbency of a seal in congress. Mr. Turner points to a life whose endorse of hia f his enemies, ut i found in tho approval mds and in the silence of He refers to hisservices un- the last legislature aud to the bitter opposition with which his candidacy is meeting from the political attorneys of the monopolies. Voters cf the Third district are in- terested in being served in congress by an honest, capable and eflicient ropresentative, The state at large ia none the less interested in the char- acter of the congressman upon whom their choice may fall. Let the honest citizens of the district now misrepre- sented by |E. K. Valentine compare the records of the two candidates, It iz not a question of contesting par- ties. The choice of either will make no difference in the balance of power in the next congress, Mr, Turner has boon & life long republican whoeo fidelity to the principles of republi- canism are best known in the county where he has lived aud worked for party success. A man of character, of sterling integrily, of uncompro- mizing firmness for what he believes to be the right, his avlection by the voters of the Third district would be equally honorable to their judgment and creditable to our state. Mz, Tuaner is running on his mer- its. Vulentino is making his cauvass assisted by all the forcs which the monopolios can throw to his aupport. Mr. TurNer has stated that his principal objection to Valontine was ote for the river and harhor ap- propriation, and yet that bill was op- posed by the combined railroad in- fluonce, How is that! —Val's Home Organ. Whether the river and harbor bill was opposed by the combined railroad influence or not doesn't make a particle of difference aa to the fact of ita being # gigautic ateal, Tho truth of the mateer is that the bill was not opposed by the railroads nor by the paper wakers, nor by the Bossemer stocl manufacturers, nor by the calico Bu' what if it had been? ce would such opposi- goods wen, What diffore tion have made so far as the actusl merits of this bold- faced burglary the uationsl upon treasury is oconcsrned. 1t was the jobbers who carried the measure through cougress over tho president's veto. It was uot the men whose con- stituents were interested in the im- provement and dovelopment of the great watersays of our country who worked to pass the measure. No Nebraska farmer is idiot enough to se0 any great advantage in a bill which appropriates $800,000 for the Mis- souri and (814,000,000 for macademi- zing unknown oreoks and rip-rapping trout brooks.

Pollock's dispatch of a weok ago is sufficient reason for his supersedal by a competent man. It sounded like the “here we are again” of the clown to the circus ringmaster, and demonstrated clearly the unfituess of the Inspector for his position, Pine Ridge is thelargest of our Indian agen- cies. Its geographicalsize and thenum- ber of Indians under the control of the agent make fraud in its administra- tion difficult to detect, The annual inspection of the issuing of supplies and the count of the ludians by an army officer dotailed for this purpose is admittedly a farce. The honesty of tho agent is the only protection to both the Indians and the government, and Indian agents are not proverbially honest. Agent McGillicuddy has had the reputation of being & capable and honest executive, The complaints of Red Cloud seoms to e more in tho line ot a tyrannical exercise of power than of dishonesty in the performance of his duties. But as the peace of the aection of the country adjacent to Pine Ridge is dependent upon an in- quiry into its affairs the agensy ought to be thoroughly investigated by a competent, impartisl inspector of sound judgment and unquestioned fairness, Such a man Pollock does nol appear to be. REPUBLIUCANISM. A fow days ago the Omaha Repub- lican gave garbled extracts from the Columbus Journal on ‘‘Republican- ism.” We reproduce the article en- tire that our readers may tee mnot only what a ptevaricator the Repub- lican is, but also—and mainly—what M. K. Turner, the republican nom- inee for congress in the Third dis- trict, hasto say. The essential spirit of republicanism in liberty and equality—liberty of con- science, liberty of thought and liberty of act—and equality, one man with another, in the enjoyment of “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness,” Our government, ‘‘dedicated to the proposition that all men are equal,” 18 or should be devoted to the task of of removing the unjust yokes which unreasonable and grasping capital puts upon humble and patient labor; guarding with jealous care and the most watchful ¢yesthe encroachments of corporations upon the sov- eign and reserved rights of the peo- pl¢; reducing to the lowest notch cousistent with the public safety, the burdens of taxation, gathering no more thau is necoesary for carrying on the various fanctions of our local and goneral govornmonts, and not keeping in our treasuries enormous sums of AS TO THOSE FRAUDS Those who perpetrate brazen frauds aré always anxious to cover their tracks, Ot the twelve hundred peo- ple that weré present at the opers house on Thursday afternoon when Loran Clark was counted in by fraud, and forced upon the ticket by the shouting and bulldozing of the corpora- tion henchmen aided by a rascally chairman, none left that hall without the convietion that W. B. Whito was honestly nominated. But the chief organ of tho disfranchishers of the chuice of the party Jdevotes a whole column of lying figures to show that Lo-~n Clark was fairly nominated You can cram that down the throats of those who were not in Omaha to witness the cuirage, but all the lying figures Brad Slaughter and Brooks can produce will not satisfy those who know the truestate of facts, First and forersost, everybody who Was present must admit that the con- vention a¢ the stage when Clark was nomjnated was & mere mob, and the mob waa incited to its boisterous vio- Jence by the monopoly bosses and money sharks that backed Loran Clark. The Republican intimates that this cry of fraud is gotten up for the pur. pose of making a fizht against Olark and two congressmen. If there had been a design to use Clark's nomioa- tion as a pretext for defeating other candidates a largo number of those who opposed him in the convention would have voted for him. The edi- tor ot Tue Bek and those who are opposed to monopolies and jobbers made every exertion to defeat Clark that in the convention, which proves that there could have been no design of using Clark as a pretext for defeating other republican candidates. It can hardly be charged that Tue BEE is re- sponsible for the bulldozers and strik- ers in the convention, or for the bra- zen frauds perpetrated by Brad. Slaughter. Those fellows do not act under its inspiration. What is true of the fraudulent counting in of Clark is cqually true of the traudulent counting out of Ran- som. Mr. Ransom had 158 votes on the ballot before Powers was declared the nominee, and on the next ballot over 75 votes changed from different candidates to Ransom, If the nomin- ation of Powers was a square. deal, why did the chair refuse to announce the vote? The fact that Griggs de- clared Clark and Powers nominated by acclamation don’t in the least pal- liate tho crime commited on the party. money 48 a temptation for the rapa- cious who will steal when they get the opportunity ‘‘by due process of law.” Republicanism consists in thinking your own thoughts and speaking your owu sentiments, regardless of the fact that there are nowspapers who distort your language, misrepresent your sen- timents, traduce ycur character and beslime yon in every way, because theic editors think it necessary so to dv in the interest of a cause that they huve set out to advocate against the expressed wish of the body of the people. Republicavism moans cleanliness and fairness in political methods. While making all due allowance for purty heat, it must ever stand as true republicanisin to diecountenance all methods of the primaries and cau- cuses which will prevent the full, free wnd fuir expression of the people’s will, Lot that will bo recorded fully and openly, without let or hindrance, | If you think it not right, endeavor to couvinoo your fellow sovereigns by sound reason and fair argument that hoy are in the wrong, but don't tam- por with the primaries, don’t dicker in sentimants, dou’t trade and traflic in grand principles, don’t sell your soul, the privilego of expressing your honest sentiments in your own way for any poor mess of pottage. There is nothing more priceless than liberty of conscience, and there is nothing in all the world so valuable as those forces which preserve that liberty, The Journal has always advocated & strong government—strong in the affections of the people, strong be- cause resting upon the consent ..a expressiug the sentiment of the people, strong to do the right for the weakest citizen against the most powerful foo which threateus, but no particular set of officials must be ellowed to imagine for a mowent that they constitute the government and have the 5ivht to per- prtuate themselves in power by the use of qges ionable means, by the use of wonty wrung from minor government employees, by the use of the party lash or any other machine appliance by which ignorance and rapaciy, placed in power, have always sought to con- tinue their domination. Let thestrong arms of the law be thrown around our primary eleotions, so that hs who cor- rupte the stream of political power at its source shall be caught aud pun- ished, even to the extent of disfran- chisement, a8 we do with those who commit common murder; let those who traffic in votes be given to under stand that their bueiness is contra- band, the eame as smuggling; let the arts of tricksters - decoption, lying, misrepresontation and every species of fraud--be discountenanced as un- worthy of freedmen; elect no man to office who imagines he bosses the peo- ple, and assumes that they are his servants, instead of he being theirs; lot every aspirant for place know that it is not because of any ‘‘cluims” of his that he should be placed in official position, but because of his ability and his defermination to carry out the will of tho people.

Some time ago ashoemaker in that city was robbed of the whole of his emall property by two men, who nar- cotized him. On August 25th the police issued a notice to the effect that they had discovered the two robbers in questton, and that the discovery had led to the arrest of ten others and the disclosure of an extraordinary plot by the anarchist party. A society had been formed among the social- revolutionists, the tendency of whose propaganda and organization was to procure money for the purpose of agitation, by a eystem of brigandage and theft. The society is divided into clubs, whose headquarters is said to be London, where the notorious Most and his party hold tho strings. Amoug the papers seized were lotters from Most, identifying him with the movement Clabs also existed in Pesth and Vienna, A short time ago Count Andrassy was myeteriously robbed of all bis orders, pictures, works of art and other valuables. The police at- tributo this also to the socialists, LeT it be remembered that no for- eign born citizen can vote unless his first papers are taken out at least thirty days bafore election, As the state election takes place on Novem- ber 8, declaration papers must be taken out by October 7 tu order to gain the rights of suftrage, e— The Senatorial Convention The seventh distriot senatorial con- vention was held at Papillion at 1 p. w.

Daniels, of Sarpy Co., were the two caudidates in the field, and on the informal ballot O'Brien re- ceived six votes, Daniels six, scatter- ing one, The first formal ballot resulted O'Brien 6, Daniels 7.

And second, that you concede me but a few minutes in which to make this recponse. But, my brethren, aa it is always a duty, if not always an un- mixed pleasure, to obey our present grand master, and aa he has ordered mo to talk whether I have anything to say or not, I beg your indulgence, as I briefly allude to the four points con- tained in the proposed toast and men- tion some matters germane thereto, which have fallen under my observa- tion during my stay in Germany, In the language of the toast it is a Mason’s duty to assist in giving “‘henlth to the sick.” I remember when I was in Gernany to have seen & painting representing a manstretched upon a bed of sickness, by his side was tho watcher with one hand upon the patient's pulse, the other upon his brow. The window was open and the morning rays of the sun were shining 1n bright and filling the room with light, and far in the background appeared an angel with wings ex. panded and arms extended as if ap- proaching to bear away that sufferer. As I looked at that picture and saw the person sitting by the side of the bed in the performance of that holy duty which Masonry hes taught, I feit as if that angel should bear away the watcher along with his patient to heaven as was Elisha, And my breth- ren, if Masonry has done naught else than to teach us that it is our duty to o to the bedsideof suffering humanity, Masonry would deserve to live, and although it is true in Germany that the brethren do not go 10 the sick bed as they do in this country, the reason is that in that country labor 1s cheaper and skilled attendants can always be easily obtained for a small compensation; therefore these skilled attendants are senv by the brethren. The Masons in Grrmany are ever as willing to send some one to watch and care for tho suf- ferer. And my brethren it matters mnot whether you be a stranger in that country, it matters not that your kindred are on the other side of the Atlantic, if the hand of affliction falls upon you in Germany you will never want for some one to care for you who will ba a brother. In fact, you will find it the same as in this country. And, my brethren, in the language of the tomst, it is & mason's duty to give ‘‘aid to the needy.’ It is not my purpose to-day to speak to you in regard to charity, for you all know you have been taught oharity from the first time ycu entered any lodge. Charity is the foundation stone of our order, and this it is which creates. And, my brethren, not ovly is charity the foundation stone of our institution, but charity is of the etercal—charity is love and God is love, and thereiore my breth- ren if all of God's gifts be cast at your feet and you havo not charity you are a wretch. You have nothing, you are nothing, Perhape 1t way not be out of place to-day to say a few words in regard to the charity of Germany. Never is a lodge held 1n Germany, but it is closed with a collection which is taken up for the poor in that country. Everything has been systemized and charity is dispensed where it will do the most good through certain chan- nels, and certain widows and orphans receive a certain amount every year. It is like a pension to them. One of the proudest hours I ever speut was in one of their lodge rooms. I had been invited as a certain amount of charity was to be dispensed. I went to the lodge room there, I saw six or ten or tifteen ill- clad women, whom I afterwards learned were widows, and ten or four- teen boys about to be confirmed into the Lutheran church, Iinquired into this and found that the widows were not widows of Masons, and the boys were not Mason’s children; but I am proud tosay that the order had reached out its hand and gone into the streets and brought in the widows and orphans, and was clothing and feeding them, That is what our order is do- ing in Gormany to-day, my brathren. Are you proud of it, or are you notl [Applause.] When I saw that Ma- sonry had done all this in Germany my heart bounded within me to know that I was a Mason also. [Applause.] In the language of the toast I find it says there should te “help to the oppressed.” Man has many oppres- sors. The tyrant that wrests money from the pockets of his subjects to carry on wars even, is not the worst of tyrants, but there are tyrants that rule over the individual, (the individ- uals which compose a nation,) who are far more cruel and far more op- pressive than any tyrant that rules over the masses, It is not my pur- pose at this time to speak at length in regard to these tyrants. 1f you will give it & moment’s thought that somo tyrant’s heel has been upon your head and bowing you to the earth from the time you arrive at age till the time set in creation for you to leave this world For instance, suppose we speak of vice, or & bad habit, Why, brethren, that habit will follow you throughout your life, and you will see its presence wherever you go. The greater the sin still darker the shadow that is cast. My brethren, it is your duaty to reach out your hand to assist your brother in driving away and breaking the pow- er of such a tyrant as that, Let us speak of another tyrant, the tyrant of poverty. That is a tyrant and an oppressor that has oppressed more people than any other thit we can name, and multitudes toil from morn till night in order to obtain the neceasaries of life for themselves and their children, My friends, it is our duty to assist in breaking the power of that oppressor. It is very easy tor those who live in affluence to be vir- tuous and honest, but it is not so easy for he who feels the yoke of poverty, whose neck is bowed under the heel of want and whose very body is weakened by labor, it is not so easy for that person to look up to heaven and be what he should be, and be what nature intends he should be. On the other hand that +tyrant crushes him and be siuks into an early grave. 5 My brethren, I feel I am taking up too much time and 1 will just allude to the last portion of the toast, and | W | help to beat down the oppressor, the world will honor you while you live, and when you finally fall asleep your brethren and the world will entwine the laurel around your neck. |Loud applause. The second regular tonst, ‘‘The atate of Nebraska—the state of our adoption, though one of the youngnest, yet rich in resources and brilliant in her prospects.” Col. C. 8. Chase re- sponded and in the course of a very cffective speech he said: When I came into this room and was toid that I had been eelected to_respond to the tonst of the state of Nebraska I said to ‘the gentleman—that tosst in one to which any man may be proud to respoud. It does not need a man accustomed to respond to toasts or a public speaker, Any man who hos lived in Nebraska could say somethiny, in regard to this state interesting to all hearers, I did not see at fir just what parcicular application Ma- sonry had to the state of Nebraska I kuow very weil what may be said of the state of Nebraska in a town where youall know it. When Masonry was | first organized in this state Omaha only | contained thicieen people and Ne- braska sixteen hundred, and ic was described as that great desert. You all know that not an apple grew that was not a crabapple, Here 19 a gentleman that sits on my right that was tho firet presiding officer over the Capital lodge (Hon. John H. Saylor). Thore was also present Hon, Alfced Jones, who used to carry the postofiice in his hat, aud hero is another old man that was there that night, John Logan. Now what hassilvered their heads? Has crime done it or has generosity done it. What has snatched my brothers from these social evils, which are not crimes but a disease, what has done it but Masonry? What has made the state of Nebraska what it is to-day, stand- ing out in the very front as one of the most patriotic states in the Union, In agricultural produce it cannot be ex- celled, and the same can be paid of its departments of education, classical art, ucience, trade, commerce, and everything elee. Masonry had a great deal to do in producing these bene- ficial results. If a man who joined us committed a crime or mean act we took him into our little room and talked to him in a way that made him shut up. More honesty was promulgated by Masonry throughout the state of Nebraska than by all the pulpits in the state put together. You may say that this 18 pretty sirong language, but it belongs to the fraternity, [Ap plause | We don't go about preaching in pulp ts what we are going to do, but we get togethor in secret, where we never let our right hand kinow ~hat our iett hand doeth.
