3 FAST FLYING IN THE AIR. Partioles in the Politioal Horizon as Seen at the 8tate Capital. THE AUDITOR AND HIS FEES. The Journal Jumps to Babeock's De- fense by Accusing Former Officials of Irregularities — Some Facts and Figures, [FROM THE BER'S LINCOLS RUNE \0.) Political prognosticators fill the air with ns many varied theories us the weather prophets, with about the same amount of uncertainty, though at times demonstrations appear in the politieal horizon which indicate, witha degree of rtainty, the outcome. The withd 3. K. Valentine from the gubernator in favor of Paul makes it look as though the ex-congressman desired 1o enter the senat il race. The candidac; of Laws for secrctary of state is a move in the interests of Stinking Water Jim, in the event he shonld be left in the See- ond district, which is quit probable thing 1f Bloomington Land Otfice S®itzer should conclude to ta hand, or the collector of internal revenue be removed on the convention day. The scheme of Judge Cobb. to keep the Laneaster county aspirants out of the ticld for state oflic seems to be losing its hold. Those look ing forward to the secr of state may find very formidable candidate in the person of J. 1. Me( + while Alvord, lormerly deputy , may muake it jively for the present incunibent.

Of course the siate will be filled by the same old crowd, but they can’t do all the voting. 4 BABCOCK SLIMLY DEFEND! 3 The Journal pops up, ns usual, to de- fend Auditor Babcock for withholding fees that belong to the state; andin order to make a respectable, showing, states that it is just what all auditors have done The Bek has not examined the subje but the statement that Auditor did any such thing is untrue, ‘K posit your fees with the treasurer,” oston, *‘and then bring me his receipt, perform the service you ask of That is what Roggen is” doing to- D, G INVESTMENTS.

FACTS AND FIGURES. Since the stir about the auditor’s little Indiscretion, it might be well to give a fow figures' and dutes relating to tI mattor. Mr. Babcock's first payment to the treasurer last year was on October 8, for $2,753.20. His next payment was D cember 31, for $11,088.65. So far this year he has made none, and a safe esti- mate of the money now in his hands, for which he should hold ‘the treasurer’s vouchers, would be about $12,000. It might be suid that should the auditor undertake to pluce this money 1 the hands of the treasurer a4 it comes In, or should the moncy be paid to the treasurer, it would require a arger clerical force than is now in the treasury department. This may all be so, but a5 yet the number of clerks in a de- partment has alwiys been supplied when needed. BRIEF MENTION. At lnst Walters, the fellow who was mentioned in yesterday's BEE as having jumped from Noble's building while it was on fire, has confessed to Laving besn the cause of the fire, but claims he was drunk. Perhaps he confessed in order to the benefit of the $200 offered by Mr. Noble for the capture of the fiend.” Now it will be in order for the insurance com- panies <o come to the front and pay up. The Lincoln street car company is keeping the streets at Eleventh and in a terriblo shape, tearing up and laying down tracks every few days, making the passago for teams almost impossible.

Section 2 is as follow at congress reseryes o itself the to alter, amend or repeal this act when the public iuterest shall require it; but such repeal shall not affect the validity of any tion taken under the power of this act prior to such repeal.” In other words, those companies n stocked and bonded to jus much cupidity of the Union Pacific railroad may induce them to go; and when you have done that, what is the power of congress to repeal worth? You can shut the door at every- thing is stolen, but you cannot touch or in any wisé impingo upon s single proceeding that has taken place prior to that time. I do not speak of this to complain of it, but I want to have my friend from Nebraska, while he is roaming all over this great field of rai road stock—watering and excessiye mortga ing, and 8o on--to take into consideration lhfs little measure that he hus offered to the senate, and while_ he s scaritying everybody else and denouncing railroads and rallroad people and the things they have done, to take up a few of the things that have been going sinee he came Into \)ublic life and give the senate the benelit of his opinion about them, Mr. Van Wyck—1 am obliged to my friend for ealling attention to this bill. I am very happy for Itbecause I want attention to the matter and I trust the judiciary committee will see to it. I took especial pains to refer the bill to the judiciary committee. 1Kknew the distinguishied senator from Vermont was chairman and I wanted it referrcd to that committee 50 as to be sure when it came out that it would come out all right. Mr. Plumb—The senator was not con- cerned about how it went in. Mr. Van Wyck—No matter so that It comes out right. Couid I pay & greater compliment o the ability and integrity of my distin- guished friend from Vermont? 1 deésired the severe action of his ability on this matter, and so I put the bill in his charze which would be A guarantee to the people that it would be in all things correct, Keferring to a suggestion from the senator from Vermont, Mr. Van Wyek said: 1 think there is a ponderosity enough in the senator mentally and physically to check the momentum, Mr. Edmunds—Not at all.

Mr. Van Wyck—The senate will excuse me for going into the argument, because it is {ubt what we are trying to do. Now as to the Jnion Paclfic my friend referred to it as a bill to take money out of the treasury. He says the Dbill is to allow themn to take the money from the sinking fund. The government is to construct these branch roads; the government owns them and holds them, giving only to the Union Pacific company the right 1o the use of them, and from that right of use to raise a reyenue to help extinguish their debt. ‘We have been toldjliere and it will be told to you when the fundi e'hlll 15 under discussion Dy the senator from Vermont, probably, and by the judiciary comuwmiltee, that we must adopt the funding bill. Why? HBecause the governnent does not own the branches already built, and it wlll be in the power of the company to strip the stem of the Union Pacitic of the great branches now completed, and therefore we ought to do thisin order that the government may have sowe claim on the brancl By my bill the branches to be buitt will be under the control of the govern- ment.
