By Fren, T. FRELINGHUYSEN, Secretary of State, Ir was currently reported that Major Nickerson, who has gained so much no- toriety on account of his bigamous mar- riage, wasinsane. Itnow turns out that he really was mad and that there was considerable method in his madnoss.

Tue Bex's artiole ;vu i;t;r;ded to read (s0 says Mr. Rosewater) ‘last but not least,” in referring to the industrious chairman of the Republican State com- mittee and Savage's majority of 406 in Dodge.—Fremont Herald., Don't, if you please, misquote. Tue Bze's article was intended to read just as itdid read. If the industrious chairman feels hurt, he should muzzle his *‘fool friend,” the editor of the Republican. It was not a quarrel of our seeking. Dexver is a lucky city. When she was on the decline, Leadville with her mines came to herrescue and gave her a boom that sent her far ahead of the most sanguine expectations. Wealth flowed from the mountains into her lap, Her streets have anatural pavement of gravel, and thus she is relieved of a heavy ex- penditure, In boring for oil water was struck, and now the city hasan abundance of the purest water from numberous artesian wells, and this at a timo when it was badly needed. The supply from the Platte river was not only insufficient, but had become the cause of frequent complaint, Strange as it may seem, the man who was boring for oil and LAIRD'S VINDICATION. Congressman Laird's long-expected vin- dication has at last appeared in his organ, the Hastings @azette-Journal. His “completo vindication,” as he calls it, was written by himself, and ocoupies six solid columns, It is an amusing docu- ment, Mr, Laird disproves what was never charged, and by implication admita the material parts of all that hes ever been charged, excopt that he was in col- lusion with the local land officors at Me- Cook, The answer to that allegation is simply what nccused persons generally plead when arraigned, namely, not guil- ty. No intelligent man can read and di- gost the statemeuts of the land officers without reaching the conclusion that Mr, Laird is simply laboring hard to disprove what nobody has alleged. Mr. Laird has been charged with wauting a stock ranch on the Stinking Wator crock, and that in accordancewith that want he went into that section with Simon Kelly, the Hastings gin mill keeper, and Mr. Francis, the surveyor of Red Willow county, to hunt up the lines of the land which he coveted. Neither of these charges does he deny. It was charged that Mr. Laird paid Gialen Baldwin the sum of 8500 to aban- don a squatters claim which he (Baldwin) T'AW DAILY BEE Wyoming. Tt is presumable that if he lived in Hastings he wonld not likely be stupid enourh to give himself away. The third and last question asked by Mr. Laird is, ““And will tho same paper state who is its authority for the state- ments reflecting on James Laird in con- nection with the Knevals case!” Our authority is the conduct of Mr, Laird and his associates who went to New York to compromise for tho settlers, Why did they steal away without taking Ssnator Van Wyck into their counsel? Why did they compromise on a larger amount than Knevals was willing to take in the first How did it come that Knevals sorved up a champagne supper at Del- monico's regardless of expense, after Laird had helped him to dive into the pockets of the homesteaders, And for further particulars, if any are desired, we refer the Hon. James Laird to Charles H.Van Wyck, United States Sen- ator, Washington, D, C, Has Mr. Laird any more conundrums? place? COMPETITION WHICH DOES NOT COM. PETE, The Towa pool has ence more struck a snag, One of the partners, the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, has gone on a a strike for higher wages. For a fow days we may have competition; then the had in that neighborhood. Mr. Laird does not deny nor attempt to disprove this, but introduces Baldwin to disprove a chaige that never was made, that he paid Baldwin $500 for making a dug-out and plowing patches of ground, Bald- win states that the contracts for plowing the ground were made with each one of the persons who made the entries—some of the contracts being made verbally and some by writing. Baldwin admits in his statoment that only cight out of the eloven bogus homesteaders have ever been in the neighborhood, but he does not state whether these contracts were made before or after the exposure of the fraud. 1t was charged that after the lines to theso lands had been found by Laird, Kelly and Francis, the surveyors of Red Willow county, that a party of men from Hastings, the home of Laird, went to McCook on B. & M. railroad passes furuished by Laird, and entered lands selectod by himself and Kelly and Francis,and that the first entries that were made on the day of the opening ot the McCook land office were those of these identical lands, This is not attempted to bedenied in Laird’s so-called vindica- tion, but to all intentsand purposesis ad- mitted for he introducesthe officers of the land office, who simply deny that they were in collusion with Laird or any body who made the entries of these Jands, and also the attorney of the men, Mr. Starbuck, who makes the same de. nial. Opposed to this is the aflidavit of Moore, heretofore published, which shows that other pre-emptors tried to got the ear of the land ofticers at Me- ook #0 g to make the entries of their claims, which were on this tract, but failed. Itis an established fact that Laird’s associates were given the prefer- ence. Is it not, then, a fair inference that they made tho entries at teh request of Laird and Kelly. Mr. Laird publishes another affidavit from Moore which is very long, but which, when boiled down, means only this and nothing more, that he did not intend to charge that James Laird was in struck water was the president of the Denver water-works company, and the company are now digging several wells, which will supply their entire pipe sys- tem. 8. 8. Reyvoups was defeated for Treasurer of Butler county, the Ropubli- can candidate g elected by a small majority, This shows a change of senti- ment since last year, when Mr, Reynolds received over 1,100 majority for State Senator.—[Seward Reporter. This shows nothing of the sort. Rey- nolds was running against two other can- didates this year in Butler county alone. Last year he was elested by 1,100 ma- collusion with the local land officers, in making fraudulent entries. We shall re- publish this affidavit at an early day, and will ask the public to carefully peruseit. There is no withdrawal of any charges of collusion or favoritism on the part of the land officers with Mr. Starbuck and his clients, Moore, in his second aflidavit, simply says, and as we understand he in- intends to say, that he did notintend to charge that Laird was present or in col- pool will be reorganized, concessions will be made and the combination will exact the expenses of the war and the increased proportion accorded the kickers from the shippers, The lamb shearing will then goon more vigorously than ever. Itis an established fact that there can be no such thing as permanent competition in parallel railroads. Of necessity the rates over all must be the same, Whenever anew road is built the territory tribu- tary to it and the lines that are parellel is made to contribute theZadditional run- ning expenses, and interest on the in- vestment. Competition always will be followed by combination. The public may temporarily profit by a ruinsus OMAHA, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1883, e_— it was given out in this city that Reese had from 1,000 to 1,400 majority and Tue Bee credited him with 1,200 on its first estimate. In view of the fact that the returns from nearly every county were in before Saunders had been heard from the inference was perfectly natural that the back precinets were held back for some purpose, By the way, why were Tre Osmana Bees to Wahoo sub- scribors, held back a day or two almost every issuo during tho closing weeks of the campaign, while the Omaha Republi- can was delivered with promptuess and dispatch, Tur. opinion of Justice Harlan, dis- senting from the decision of his col- leagues on the United States Supreme bench in their decision pronouncing the civil rights bill unconstitutional, will commend itself as eminently sound to everysincere believer in the fundamental principles of Republicanism. Justice Harlan plants himself broadly upon the ground that the supreme court is in duty bound to respect the intent of the makers of the constitution, It is a matter of history that the constitutional amend- ments under which the civil rights bill was framed, were voted and adopted not merely to abolish slavery and confer the elective franchise upon the freedmen, but to insure equality before the law in its broadest sense to every citizen with- out regard to race, color or previous con- dition. The duty of the National Legis- lature to prohibit discrimination against any citizen in the full exercise of his civil rights was expressly pointed out in the proviso that grants to Congress the power to enforco the constitutional amendments by suitable legislation. To say that this power was nega- tive, and could not be exercised until some State attempted to discriminate against one class of citizens by hostile legislation, because of their race or color, was vir- freight and passenger war, but in the end it has to make good the losses of such a war, There is only one way in which the public can be protected against ruinous rate wars and extortionate tolls by com. bination. The national and stato legis- latures must enact laws fixing a minimum as well as a maximum rate. We want laws that will ‘prevent any railroad from engaging in competition at less rates than it can afford to carry the business. We want laws that will prevent pool lines from exacting from shippers, who are compelled to patronize them, exorbitant and oppressive tolls, When such laws arc enacted it will be unnec- essary for railroads to pool as a mat- ter of self-protection, and competing roads will only be built when the traffic of the section through which they run shall demand additional facilities. It is a mistaken idea that every railroad built is a blessing to the country. Experience has shown that the need- less building railroads by jobbers and speculators, who build on borrowed capi- tal and issue fictitious stock, is a great curso. Such roads may develop prema- turely sections of the country which they traverse, but in the long run, instead of cheapening traneportation they compel roads that share the traffic with them to keep up high rates. Take for example the railroads that traverse the continent. The Union and Central Pacific roads,unrestricted by law, have for fourteen years exacted outra- geous tolls from their patrons. They have laid heavy tribute upon the produ- cers and industrial classes from the Missouri to the Pacific coast. Tt was expocted that the building of com- peting roads to the Pacific would aftord relief by forcing material reductions in passenger and freight tolls, What is the result? The traflic of which the Union and Central Pacific had a monopoly is lusion with the ofticers in making these entries, The fact is that Laird with his natural cunning increased by his practice as a lawyer, builds up a straw man and jority over his opponent in Butler and Polk counties. Last year Butler connty gave Sturdevant 401 majority over Loran Olark, This year Savage carries it over * Roose by 472, Polk county, which gave Sturdevant 94 majority last year, was ocarried by Savage this year by 247 ma- jority; and these two couuties were re- garded as the stronghold of Mr. Reose. This shows that the district which elected Mr. Reynolds last year to the Senate by about 1,100, has experienced no change of sentiment, On the contrary, anti- monopoly is stronger there than ever.

Mr. Laird has been very unfortanate in his business associations, and his memory has been so defective that few who know him could depend on any denial he makes even if in the shape of an offidavit, His connection years ago with rotten schomes and corcupt jobs has given him a notoriety that is more malodorous than the stinkiog water ranch steal, There area few questions which he pro- pounds to Tk nEE directly, Mr. Laird agks, “Will the Omaha Bee state who is its authority for the charge of frand by James Laird in conunection with the or- ganization of Phelps county?” 1f Mr, Laird desires to locate the authority let him look in and around the North Platte land oftice, and if he can not find it there, we will cite a fow old settlers who have a distinct recollection on that subject. Mr, Laird’s next question is, *‘Will the same paper state who was its author ity for the charge that James Laird ap- plied for and deposited money for the survoy of land in Northern Nebraska?” Mr. Laird to disprove this has fished out an aflidavit from ex-Surveyor or General Smith, who swears that the identical James Laird who deposited the money to loeate lands in Nebraska on survey scrip hailed from Wyoming, This is but another case of **Vegenham."” Our information camo from the records of a congressional committee charged, with investigating these survey sovip frauds, Thiscommittee whiloinvestigating entries made by a California ring, stuwn- bled on the name of James Laird, who now divided among five monopolies. The high rates heretofore exacted by the Union and Central Pacific are kept up by mutual agreement. They could hard- ly do otherwise, The traffic that paid a handsome dividend on two wil- lions of inflated stock is now expected to pay dividends on one thou- sand millions. The Union and Centra Pacific cormorants, gorged with spoils ex- acted by highway robbery, might have loosened their grip and given their pa- trons reduced rates, but when they have to divide with four other giant monopo- lies thoy naturally continue their op- pressive exactions, To be sure, the con- struction of four other railroads to the Pacific has developed and peopled sec- tious of the country that then were bar- ren wastes, and increased the traflic at the terminal cities, but the increase is by no means proportionate to the increased expenses and vast capital upon which in- terest and dividends are to be paid. Hence, the country will be bled for many years when it might have had reliof had not the speculators built more roads than we need. Sooner or later the chartering of railroads will have to be regulated by the population and traffic. Until then and until the legislatures and congress fix maximum and minimum tolls, pooling will continue and ruinous pool wars will disturb comme:ce by fluctuating rates which are always followed by a levy on the shippers to make up the shortage. RosEWATER g his reputa- tion as a liar these days. as all Saunders county 0‘)10 may perceive by the fol- lowing: “The back precincts of Saun- ders county are atill held back to make Reese's election sure.” The foregoing appears in Tug Bree of November 13, 'he returns from all the precinots of this county were in by the 9th of November and were counted or canvassed on the 10th.— Wahoo Tribune, Then why were the Saunders couniy returns on Supreme Judge withheld from the press! Why did not the Wahoo or Ashland papers publish thcm prompt. 1y? Why were they not telegraphed to the Omaha Republican on the day the canvass was completed! Up 1o the 14th tually to nullify the very essence of the amendments. To enforce equality be- fore the law in respect to the rights of all citizens to equal privileges on public highways and in public places there must be laws to punish offonders. Tt would not be necessary for any State where people were hostile te the exercise of equal privileges on railroad trains, steamboats, parks or other public places of amusement to enact laws creating class or race distinctions in order to nullify the civil rights of all its citizens. Such distinctions could be carried on with impunity as long as no law was en- acted to prevent them, and punish their infraction. Under tho late decision con- gress never will be called on to protect the civil rights of American citizens whero they are violated by State statute, and yet the violations will be a matter of notoriety and common occurence. Jus- tice Harlan lays down the fundamental principle involved in this decision when he declares: National legislation, may, without transcending the limits of of the constitution, do for human liberty and fundamental rights of American citi- zenship, what it did with the sanction of the Supreme court for the protection of slavery and rights of masters over fugi- tive slaves. In every material sense, it is applicable to the practical enforcement under the amendment. PEOPLE WILL TALK. ——*“1 attended the consecration services at Trinity cathedral,” remarked a prominent citizen te the Bee's Man About Town, ‘‘and was very much pleased with the beautiful interior of the new church. Ihave one fault to find, however, and that is with the seats. I occupied one of the back pews, and as they areall ona leve! I could not see over the persons in tront of me without bracing up and stretching my neck to the utmost, 1t was certainly very annoy- ing. It then occurred to mo that it is about tima to make a new depa, ture not only in thoe general architecture of churches but in the manner of arranging the seats, 1f I had anything to say about the construction of a church I should certainly have the pews on an inclined plane, so that thelast pew in the church would be the highest and command as good a view as those near the pulpit. What opportunity do the ladies havo to display xmir new bonnets if the seats are all ona dead level, and how many ladies are there who do not like to have their new bonnets admired?” ¢ Wait till we got our church finished " interrupted a prominent member of the English Luth- eran congregation, ¢* and then you will see a church that will suit you exactly. It is arranged on the opera house plan— parquet, parquet circle and gallery—every seat in the house commands a good view of the audience and the stage—I beg your pardon—1 mean the congregation and the pulpit. The idea was suggested by our hnl(‘ifig our services in Boyd's opera house. I believe our church will be the first ever built after this plan. It is & new departure in church architecture but it is destined to be the popular style at no distant day " other day,” said Councilman Dunham, ‘‘and among other persons that I met there, was Converse, who was in the crockery business in Omahaabout sixteen ears ago. He wound up his business Karo. and pulled out for Cheyenne, trans- porting his crockery, without getting it smashed, with two or three teams and wagons, He was not worth over $1,600 all told, but to-day he is said to be a millionaire, He has been wonderfully successful in every enterprise that he has had anything to 3) with—erockery, cat- tle, mines, banking, He is now the pres- ident of the First Na‘ional bank of Chey- enno. A million dollars in twelve years is doing pretty well.” *‘Yes,” remarked a bystander, “‘but he wouldn't have had 80 wuch had he not got in with the Union Pacific railroad, which gave many a man & big start on the road to fortune during ita construction days. There's Boyd, for instance, who made a big sum as a con- tractor, 8o did Paxton,who sold his cat- tlo the other day for over #700,000, and still retains an interest in it, and this is only a part of his fortune, Ed.

Ho has the greatest confidence in Omaha, and believes that in less than seven years she will have over a hundred thousand people. The many public im- provements even during the last few months astonished him upon his recent visit. The fact is that Omaha's prosperi- ty is attracting general attention through- out the length and breadth of the Jland. With her paved streets, her water works, her hotels, her opera house, her many new, beautiful, and substantial public buildings and elegant private residences, and all the modern conveniences of a metropolitan city, she is bound to keep up the boom for years tocome. The more she grows the faster she grows.
