THE OMAHA DAILY BEE, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 1 1886, THE RANK AND FILE LAUGH | What Democrats Say of Dr. Miller's Corre spondence With the Administration, RESCUED FROM A LIFE OF SHAME A Lincoln Father Takes His Danghter From an Omaha Bagnio—An In- constant Lover—Other Inter- esting Local News. The "“Good Doctor's" Letters, Tho publication in Friday's BE of the editorial correspondence from Washing- ton in which the patronage methods of Dr. Miller were thoroughly exposed has ereated no little excitement in political girclos. I saw all those papers of which Mr. Rosewater writes, when I wasin Washington,'’ said Mr. Chas. H. Brown yesterday, “and Dr. Miller can sweat out his unvailing wrath.” The reporter put a question to draw out the distingnished ler of ‘“the slaunghter house” democrats, and in ques tioning used that n term “I know nothing of slanghter house nor packing house,” interposed Mr. Brown. “I know that Tam a demoerat devoted to the best interests of the party in Nebra “But yon understand, Mr, Brown, that those expressions, whethier aptly or not pxpress the divisions of the two factions our party”’ “There are no two factions There is a eat and growing democ in Ne- bras and there is also, I regret to say, a mischicf-making, malcontent faction jdentitied undaer Boyd and Miller, who and defeat the party by their je discord. That's all the faction there is, but it hangs to the skirts of the party like a yelping cur and does create brief delay pending t hour when t dignity of the democ all assert it- mfi and administe 1l quictus. Yes, Dr. Miller is_pretty r and his language is certainly violent and ruf- y. What ails him? When you can the emotions of an you will then be able to uncover the doe- or’s secret maladay.” Mr. A. Swartzlander, who is identified among the working democerats who are gore to the eye of the great medical edi- tor, was called upon. “Don’t ask me to talk about Doc. Miller,” said he; *‘the dear Doe. has taken a position so high above us common folks who get out on election day and work, that there is no use of our ining at him. Ever since a democratic administration came n the doctor has been walking on stilts and is not to be accommodated at the theatre with less than the whole proscenium. I often wonder whether he gains any at- tention on his periodical Nlights to Wash- ington. He certainly don't get mueh if the federal fruits go to show anything. I am glad that the proofs of his meddle- gome interference are brought out to re- fute his denials. 1 tell you candidiy, that I belicve the democ of Nebraska who do not subsist on politics do not eare for any changes in the federal oflices of the state. Lambertson fills the oflice of dis- trict attorney as capably as ever Pritchet could; Post is as competent a collector of internal revenue as Crawford could pos- sibly be, and Robinson ms well ualified for his position as though the doctor had not fiung his billingsgate against him.”’ ar. 1. H. Goodrich, of the waterworks company, who is known among tl but undemonstrative demoerats, wa proachi ere dis- pleasure that the le: mise the party by their factional qus and denied that he identified with either side. IHe deprecated Dr. Miller’s attempt to drive out the state surveyor, sho beeause the doctor was actuated to his efforts by partisan malic He was amused ~ that the patronage corre- spondence of the doctor gave the lie to his demal of interference in the matter of federal appointments, Mr. James Creighton was much more anxious to talk about strect paving than to deal in politics, but he laughed when the BEE'S editorial correspondence was mentioned. *‘You can put me down as a slaughter Pncking house democrat—both, you sce. am for the side that is in the rlf;ht every time and am bound to neither. T have to laugh at the way the good doc- tor fell down in trying to' get out of his serape, and the expose ()ti. his letters in the Bie must nettle him. 1 confess I don't quite like his attitude. He had botter been straight out, and now that he is tripped up and light 'is thrown on th question he could squeal with a little L violence A number of other gentlemen were seen, but at this quict_season of the year nearly all begged oft from print, and with the few above in hand, deference was shown their requests.
