The | differences of opinion as to which of the | proposed plans is the bost for restoring | silver to o closer approximation to its old valtio among the metals are as numerous in the enst us in the west, The utterances of the Now York press, which writes under the shadow of Wall street, are as little to be taken as a reflox of pub- lic opinion on the const the wild ravings of some of our western small bore editors are to be supposcd to reflect the honest opinion of sonsible and intelli- gent citizens of this section. No one is, admittedly, in favor of “dis- honest money.” Capital and labor alike, whercver the subject is intelligently dis- cussed, desire a stable and solid basis for our circulating medium, The fogs which envelop the subject have been raised largely by dishonest discussion of the currency question by men whose inter- ests lie either on the side of an undue in- flation or an unnecessary gontraction. The people are less concerned about theories than they are about rvee sults. 3 e that w deprociated currency in the end helps no one. They have intelligenee enough to unde stand that fluctuations in the value of | any civeulating medinm are injurious alike to producer and consumer throngh unscttied values and the stimulus given to unhealthy, speculation, The cha that the west demands the unlimited coinnge of silver beeause it is the silver producing region is not true. The best intelligence of the west protests against the demonetization of silver beeuuse it believes that such o course is unneces- 'y, and that the relative value of the two metals can be so adjusted as to per- mit them to circulate in harmony. At me time there is no demand for the continued coinago of the depreciated wd dolls Public opinion in the t, as well asin the east, is largely unit in favor of an incrense in the weight of metal needed to restore the dollar to a nearer approximation to its old re- Tation with gold. Just what the inerease should be and what measures should be taken to proteet the interest of holders of old issucs of coin is @ question upon which many are divided What is most needed is intelligont discussion of the question in all its bearings upon home interests and industry, intornational policy and the probabilities of the future. Bankers and demagogues will not be al- lowed to monopolize the public rostrum, Intelligent business mon and students who have given the subject earncst at- tention must be heard as weil. The com- ing season of congress will be the arena upon which the various contestants will display theiv abilities in debating the silver question and there the public will be uble to learn whether all the financial heresies of the country are produced in that section which produces, with about everything else worth producing in the union, a sense of nutional honesty and good business methods ineluded, The Country Postmasters' Union. A large convention of country post- masters will assemble n month in Chicago to take action regarding various injustices to which they are subjected by the government. The meeting will con- gist entively of third and fourth cluss postmasters, and every state in the union is expected to be represented in the gath- ering. Tho call for such a convention is proper and timely. For years past, as the BEe knows from personal exper as well as universal complaint, all the Jegislation pertaining to the manage- ment and expenses of postoflices has been direetly in the interest of fivst and second class postmasters, while those of the third and fourth grades, who are by far the hardest worked, have been neglected and — tre with positive rjustice, This list of complaints made by the country postmaster against the department is a formidable one, It may be summed up brietly s follows: Every third and fourth class postmaster is com- pelled to pay his own rent and furnish Lis own fucl, light, pens, ink, pap wucilage, pencils, & number of books in which to keep his accounts with the gov- cernment, and, ina word, all his incident- al expenses, whilst every dollur for such purposes in all fiest and second eluss ollices uve puid by the postoflice depart- They are not ouly londed with these unjust expenses but they are virtu- ally robbed of their legitimate incomes, being compelled to turn over to the government s large percentage of their box rents, although the boxos are their own pri property. i in- ate tributing point for other oflice come is in a large mujovity of cases o up by elerk hive, for which the depnit ment mikes most niggardly allowances, know ofeoflices in Nebraska whose maintenance is n of i pense to the incumbents.

Bikhorn valley and save the long and roundabout trip by way of Blair, But the Omaha road must be constructed, no matter what outside nterprises are hevalded as “avout to ace complish the same end.” No other road under the control of managements whose interests center on the lnkes or the At- Jantie coast can nccomplish the same end for Omaha as a road controlled by home capital and built in the interests of braska. The completion of such a lino will speedily adjust rates from the pres- entexorbitant and diseriminating tavift to a hasis on which business can be done on the live-and-lot-live principlo.

THE CRIMINAL AND HIS CAREER. ery-Day LAt of the Doomed Opinion of Nehraska's Peniton- tlary -~ Gere's Voto in 1882 Analyzed-Clty Briefy, His TFROM THE BER'S TINCOLN HURBATY Quinn Bohanan, the condemned mur- dever, was visited last Saturday at the Otoe county juil, st Nebraska City, by o Beg roporter, The eell occupied by Bo- hanan is on the south side of the build- ing, and the cell in which he is confined is what may be ealled an iron cage within a cage. The cago is 6 feet one way by 74 feet the other, and is about 7 feet high. It is enclosed on three sides with heavy boiler plate, with only one o grated. The atmosphere is closo, nd when asked, Bohanan said he suf- fored o great deal from a lack of fresh air. In appear Bohanan is & man weighing about 145 pounds; he has dark hair and beard, witih a slight tendency to baldness; his features are rather sharp cnt, and his actions are nervous and at times quite animated. The crime for which Bohanan now stands convicted by the judgment of the supreme court of the state was the kill- ing of James Cook, at Wave Neb., mn February, 1882, During a discussion over a t 1 matter, the spelling of a word, & qu I avose between the men, Without apparent provocation Bohanan pulled out his pistol and shot Cook, kill- ing him almost instantly. is first trial occurred at Lincoln in June, 1882, when vas prosecuted by John C.

When asked why he had such an aver- sion to the penitentiary, he said he had a good many reasons but would give no particular one. For some time past Bohanan has been reading the recovd of the celebrated casy of the State of Missouri against Charl {ri who murdered his wife about ars ago in St Louis. T ; ted, and du in the city j Louis for zht y { was taken to the supreme cour United States, and it was there sevel before fir ring.

That gentleman, he said, had told him it would require at least a thousand dollars to further prosceute the ease. He could not raise it, While speaking upon this subject Bo- hanan said he bliamed the commissioners ol Otoe county for not lowing him the right to worn™ for hims v i AL the penitentinry, he said, knitting ma- chines were used which would turn out from five to cight pairs of stockings per day.
