Having failed to alarm the people of Lincoln about the terrible enemy which ded th tho Lincoln pa- s have recently changed their method of attack. They are now trying to make it hot and disagrceable for the representative of the Bum by assailing him personally in their col- umns. This is, to say the least, not very creditable to Lincoln journalism ng advantage of a prejudice agninst Omaha, which they themselves hav ated and kept up for years, they have tricd to im- press upon the people of Lincoln the idea that his comments upon the Missouri Pa cific boud project were an evidenee of deep-scated enmity to Lincoln. As n matter of fact there was noth- ing improper in the incidental remark that tho Missouri Pacific was bound to go into Lincoln, bonds or no bonds, and the aid voted was 50 much woney needlessly thrown away.
