THE OMAHA DAILY BEE FRIDAY, APRIL 16, 1886. THE BEE PRINTS THE NEWS A Fact on Which Mr. Sawyer can Always Place Dependence. ITS POLICY NOT REPRESSIVE. A Father Accused of Teying to Kill His Ten-year-old Daughter— Sued for Slander—Other Lincoln Ne [rROM THE BEE'S Mr. Andrew J the L ue, the gentle man who so “strongly deprecates news- paper notoriety,” paraded himself in a column interview in the Journal yester- day morning, the chief point of which was an intemperate attack on the Big for presuming to print the complaint on file against him in the district court. The representative of the Ber at Lin- coln is paid for obtaining and printing the news. 4One of his regular stations in this line of duty is the oflice of Clerk Sizer, in the county building. Calling there Tuesday the reporter found the amended petition making Mr. Sawyer chief defendant in the action of Holmes vs. Shimer, et This document formed the basis of a legitimate itom of news, and one in which the people of Lincoln are largely interested, A plain state- ment of the case, framed entirely on the allegations in the plaintifs petition, was given tothe public. With the truth or falsity of those allegations the re- porter lias nothing to do. They are made under oath, and consequently entitled to consideration. 1f the case is ever put on trial a judge and jury will decide them, and it is the seribe's duty to “draw the line at that ** Colonel Web. ster and Captain Billingsly had nothing to do with the publication of the item, as Mr. Sawyer unjustly intimates. On the contrary, when asked by the BEE man for further particulars, they both de- clined to give any information, saying they did not want to try the ease in the papers. and wonld prefer to have 1t kept Thiy sound strange to Mr. y for rushing into print on every flimsy pretext was well ex- emplitied 1n the Bi Barr case, but it 18 the truth neve Sawger’s main_grievance against min seems to hinge on the fact that an endorsement of the charges was sly withheld. This, to Mr. Sawyer, “‘guarded and cowardly.” "To | public it will look like an able-bodied example of fair play, and a ¢ to refrain from hitting J)e under n. ‘Lhe bottom facts of the whole case t the item was published merely piece of nows, without regard wyer’s personal or pub- position,” and with as little care or thought as would attach to the recording of a row at fisticufls between two of the humblest laborers on the street. If it is just and fair to publish the fact that plain Pat Maginnis has been jailed for drunkenn been arrested for violating the 0 law, it is equally proper to let the read- ing ‘public know that a Jeading Iawyer, the professed guardian of the peace and ity of the town, has been made de- fondant in an action charging him with conversion of property. 'This may not be palatable to Mr. Sawyer, but it is be- cause his tastes have 1 perverted £:0 160 Gonstang reading of “gocalled papers whose chief aim secms fo bo to smother the mews, especially when it affects prominent ‘n:n le in Lincoln. It may also injure his chanees of appoint- ment to be United States di for Nebraska, but tl is a matter over which all democrats in the state will not weep, and with which the BEE man has no concern. Mr. Snw?‘nr intimates that the article was published because he is an officer of the league, and was intended as an as- sault on the the Law and Order move- ment. The BEE has been a strong sup- porter of the league ever since it was or- ganized, and is the only paper circulated in Lincoln, with the exception of the Evening .

TRIED TO KILL HIS WIFE, Bertha MeIntee appeared before Justice Cochrane yesterday and swore out o war- rant against James Mclntee, her divoreed husband, for trying to kill their daughter, 1 of about ten years. Mrs. McIntee, ing as & house servant . Dr. Childs, says that when she ned was allowed $5 a week for the eare of the child, who is sick and unable Ile to herself, her bod being covered with large sores, the result of continued violence and abuse by her unnatural father. Mr. McIntee, who had grown tired of paying this monay for the child’s support, made a bratal attack upon her about two weeks ago, with the intention, as Mrs MclInteo alleges, of ‘‘putting her out of the way.” "Justico Cochrane issued a_warrant and sent a constable to serve it on Mclntee, who is a farmer, living about fourteen miles north of town, MILLER DIETZ IN COURT. Anton Dietz, the manager of the ‘Crab mill” near this cilf’, has commenced an action in the district court in which he asks $4,000 damages from Theodore K for slander. Dietz's complaint, 18 drawn by Messrs. Sawyey & contains four distinet charges. Th os that on the 8th of February Inst, the defendant, in the presence of a man named Baldwin, said that Dietz was “a damned thief,”” and had stolen forty bushels of buckwheat. A repetition of this language on the 18th of February.to R. €. Van Cleave, and later on the samo day to Colonel B. Crabb, and on the Sth of April to Justice Cochrane, is made the basis of the other charges. BRIEF MENTION.

Grenthan, of Plattsburg, Mo., passed through Omaha yesterday on their way to Helena, M. 'I'. They had with them a bright-looking colored girl 8 or 9 years old, whom they brought from Plattsburg. Mrs. Grenthan told are- orter for the BEE that she had taken a ancy to the girl, who was living in_ poverty, with apparently no frienas or relatives, and being “struck by her manifest intelligence deter- mined to educate her. She took her into her family gt Plattshurg, where she helped the servants in performing work of the household. A few weeks ago she de- termined to go with her uncle to Helena, and, of course, thought that there would be no objection to taking the little col- ored girl with her, The negroes in the . L A town, however, were at onceup 1 Arins. They did not know where Helena was; in fact had never heard of such a_place. Some one told them that it was 2,500 miles away, this distance was 100 great for their minds to comprehend. Mrs. Grenthan told them that the child would be a great deal better off with her than living in Fo\'erty in Plattsburg. They did not see it in that light, however, and when Mr. Hale and his niece reach- ed St. Joe, they were detained br the po- lice at the instance of the Plattsbyrg ne- groes, who accused llmz} of abducting the girl. Matters were finally explained and the party allowed to continue their Jjourney. ‘Do you want to oo to ngumnn?" ask- ed the reporter of tite chifd. Y “Me want to go anywhere 'th Missa Grenth'n,” was the response. The party went on their way rejoicing.

L Easter Cards, This year's Euster cards from the house of L. Prang & Co., of Boston, from whom we have received a beautiful collection, show a great variety, and embody in a more striking way the different senti- ments appropriate to this season than those of previous years. This season’s publications compose an exceptionally attractive line, not only in the variety of subjects, but the artistic execution of the designs, the lul‘l)pg' selection of suitable sentiments, and the tasty embellishment of their more pretentious publications, The following artists have contribute designs to this year's line: Mrs. O. E. Whitney, Miss Helen W. Emery, Miss L. B. Comins, Mra, Phebe Jenks, Walter Satterlee, Henry Sandham, Miss E, Mat- lack, Miss L. B, Humphrey, Miss Fidelia Bridges, Mrs. E. T, Fisher, H. Giacomolli, . Schuyler — Mathews and W, Hamilton Gibson. Among the mor attractive figure cards are a serics by Miss L. B. Humphrey, and a card by Mrs. Phebe Jenks. Tho latter, two cherubs among lilies, is a thoroughly Easter conception, and the former can be classed among the best reproductions of this house, as far as drawing, color and printing are concerned. One card repre- Yents a female figure, who holds a. pas. sion flower in her hand, resting against a tomb and looking out to the breaking cloud of an early morning. In the other floats an Easter angel with outspread wings, lilies in her arms, against blue sky and delicately tinted but undefined ornamental background. All these come plain and fringed, and, some are made into double cards, with appropriate Easter verses. Original and delicately tinted backs arve on all. Several of these sories are printed on satin, and this part of the extensive hne is further cnriched by a large Easter dove from the brush of Heunry Sandham, which has been printed on satin only. The diffurent fancy mounts are almost entirely new in design, com- prising many of a decidedly Easter character, such as an Easter Doye Wing, Crosses, Bggs, Calla Lily Leaf, and an Easter Crown. The ‘sentim and yerses have been carefully sele books of Easter Hymns appealing partic- ularly to a literary predilection.

Sacrifices Must be Made to Insure Lasting Benefits—The Evil Effects of Corporate Influence—Passes and Rebates. To the Editor:—The movement re- cently inaugurated in Nebraska, looking to a co-operation of the farmers and me- chanics of the state, in an effort to secur right legislation and administration in publie aftairs, is being watched with deep interest by many thoughtful men outside that wonderful young commonweath. The exceptional intelligence, civie virtue and patriotism of the people of No- braska, as a whole, has been abundantly manifested in the past, and that state is, therefore, regarded as a fair field, upon which to test the gapacity of the com- mon people, for such wise and patriotic action as would result in the emanciy tion from many of their hard conditions, by which they are environed throughout the common country. Lf the experiment proves successin thatstate, the example will be potential with other communitic which suffer and approhend evils similar to those which afflict the people there. The writer is not pat ticularly informed asto the plan formulated by which the proposed co-operation is to be secured, but presumes it a wise one. Labor unions, of various kinds, have bronght and will continue to bring many substantial benefits to the member- ship _composing them, but hitherto, a nervousness in_action, if mot in spirit, characterized such organizations, which has tended largely to individualize or localize, instead of generalizing their ce. In the spe [ h rily remain m: ters of interest, policy and tien, to be rnntrollml%y the - tions separately. There are, however, other and broad interests, reaching in common all who win bread by muscle or brain, which can_be obseryed effec- tively only by an intelligent, judicious co-operation of all those who ander the constitution of things share in them. To meet this broader requirement, there must needs be somo sort of federa- tion of indust izati powers. ength comes from union will be obvious when these separate organizations are feder- ated for & common purpose, as it was to the individaal comprising them, when they united with their respective organ- izations. There will incevitably be some friction inconvenience, and needed sacrifices al round, at least for a time, when these various organizations of workingmen un- dertake to make common cause against common adversaries. But to pre-suppose the noble army of bread-winners incapa- ble, or unwilling to make the needed sac- rifices for the common good,is to estimate them no higher as to motives than we do the cormorants that prey upon them. N S Silistinogs fmanifeated by, an organiza: tion of farmers or mechanics is not a whit more lovely than when exhibited h{ 1 grasping monopoly, and no amount of specious reassuring can make it appear s0. The unjust burthens imposed upon the industrial eclassess of our country under ing conditions, are obyious and grievious, but, if in the pursuit of remedies for prevailing evils, the methods of the sufferers take on no higher charac- ter than that of narrow individual or limited class interest, the hearts of men will apprehend little difference between the actuating mutinies of the oppressed and the oppresorg, and wil witness their cause go down 1n ¢ comparative indiflerence. Evidences of o willingness to do, and if need be tosuffer, for the common welfare, will alone in- sure the approval of the just judgment of mankind gor their efforts. Are the farmers, mechanics and other bread winners of Nebraska about to rise to the magnitude of the issue of right against wrong, of the people against their confederated oppressors, forgetting for the time who among them are farm- ers, who mechanics, who unskilled wage workers—forgetting who have been, or re republicans, democrats or_prohibitionists—fors, .’ugteumwnt or present party of the men, who, being true to thew cause, ask_their suffrages at the polls—remem- bering only thefr common wrongs and the justice of their cause? How the intelligent, patriotic_eitize) of Nebraska, through their gctioh, “shall make answop to suoh Tiestion i8 what some of us, their conscious tellow suftc ers n_other states, are waiting with ab- sorbed, hopeful interest to sce. We are painfully alive to the fact that atlve answer to such a question will not be easily made. Through the ignorance, negligence or venalty of their chosen agents, the people have permit- ted or created ivantages which monopolies, under color of law, now use toin one way or another extort from them o large percentage of the product of their labor. Whatever has been un- wisely or viciously fixed beyond recall must of course stand and be borne. the highest court of the land has deci that the people through their legislatures may regulate the operations of the most oppressive of these monopolies; and this we understand the good people of Ne- braska now propose, among other things, to do. It goes without saying that they have entered upon a very great and im- portant undertaking. Corporato nower, intrenched behind its privileges and con- centrated wealth, will contest eyery foot of their advance, and its resources are marvelous in number, and in effective organization everywhere. It may be profitable to here glance at some of these, not because they are unknown to many, but because they must be met and coun- teracted m the contest. Corporate power has, doubtless, in one way or another, corrupted the sources of the peoples’ counsel and information, in Nebraska, as in Towa and elsewhere. Going no higher than county oflicials, wo will find_the principal eldotive offivers with railroad passes in their pockets, and their voices, as a rule, are either in de- fense of, or nlmlug‘v for railroad meth- ods and practices. Having the confidence of & majority of their fellow-citize shown in their election, their utte necessarily Lave an {nfluence on wrong side. It is not nsinuated here that a free hass on o railroad would actually buy the honor of these officials. They probably persuade themselves that their idivid- outgivings are of little consequence either way—under existing eiroumstances —but that free transportation is of actual value to them. What is meant is, that the railroads expect, and generally do their favor in a contest with the Those engaged in the reform t in Neb a need not be as- tonished if they find the force of thei suments and appeals brokes, or parried, by # brigade of officials with “dead-head"! riilroad tickets in their poekets. hen will me the heavy favored in and stock dealers and larger m nts, who dread losing their spe rates; actively, or passivcly, their influ- enee will go on the side of monopoly. Then come the little “patent-outside” rs, which exist all over the . whorever two or tiree stores hered together. To the extent that these sheets are read and relied upon—and not a few voters subscribe for no other newspapers— their influ may be expected, as a rule, to be found on the side of monopolies. They are for the most part useful and true to’ local in- terests and could nut well be spared. That they are the petty minions of corporate the ar ch At 1t WHb-wii | & power is not alwayk and perhaps not gen- erally the fault of the publishers. A case under actual observation will illustrate the sitnation of many In a prosperous young railroad town in lowa, the center of a well-to-do, intel- ligent agricultutal population, two young men of charnetér and ability were pub: lishing one of the two very respectable weekly newspapers of the place and were prospering, The property of some farmers situated along their lines was destroyed by the railroads and fair com- sation therefor refused by the roads. anet espoused the cause of the injured indiyiduals as against the big corporations. For domg this they wer kindly warned of danger to thefr busi ness, But with more_courage than busi- ness prudence the publishers persisted in their course. Tl 50 ventured to erit- icise the disoriminati p rates, ete., practiced by the railroad man- agement. Soon the principal shippers of rain and live stock ndoned them, Soon afterwayd, the heavigst merchants withdrew theit their advertising and job patronago, and these were followed by all—big and little—who in the course of businoss were in the habit of receiving unequal favors from the railroad man- agement. Thus “boycotted” by the railroad the publishers were forced to lny before the farmer and me- chanies of their community and ask them to sustain their own cause, by supporting the paper. Expressions of approval and sympathy w abundant, and many gave subscriptions for the paper, but there was no general or effective move- ment in the right direction, and conse- quently the publishers were driven into hunkruptey in I n year. When the industrial classes fail, or refuse to sustain their own friends, as in this case, it nnot be reasonably expected that others will advocate their cause at the cost of property and bread. Through the proseut imovement the farmers and mechanics of Nebraska may be able to give their local papers snch a suriince of proper support as will make them feel safe in heartily joining hands with them in the im]wm?in,\; contest, but, if they cannot or do not, from any cause, they may expecet the influence of many of o papers will be directly or indireetly zainst them, and the aggregate of such influence will not be casily overcome.

Like all the tactics of monopo- ists when playing against the people, this trick is shrowd to the last degrce "The appepl to pasty names, party asso- ciations and party pride, is always po- tent with men and jexceedingly hard to resist. In common with most men the writer can bear testimony to_this fact, from his own experience and inner con: sciousness. He has been identified with one of the great political parties for more than a quarter of a_century, and takes great pride in its honorable achicvements. It costs him a very great effort to admit it, and to declare that neither the republican nor the demo- cratic party—as a party—has bes i to the bread-winners' ca struggle against the tyrann, spoliation of intrenched monopolists, and that neither party can now right- Sy fhair allaginnna. 1Y Tiaih = 5 We have f ends,zood and true,in each of these partics, such for instance as Re- oublican Van Wyck, of Nebraska, or emocratic Reagan, of Texas; but, thus far, the henchmen of monopoly, have dominated the political organjzation and pulic{ of both parties, and will continuc to rule them until the igdustrial classes shall unite for the vindication of their own cause.
