The wvrecious gang of paid workmen that Howe has in Lincoln, with Attorncy Courtnay head, have been sitting up nights of late, and they give it out that they have stemmed the tide of desertion that was rapidly decimating the Howe crowd, and that Howe wili get u mujority in Lancas teraftor all, Church Howe, coming on the B. & M. train between Omaha and Lancoln on the morning of Monaay, Octo ber 25, told & reputable and prominent man in the presont campaign in the state, that his strikers were going into haue ranks, and profussing to be men, were geting monoy Lo st their expenses, and thon were going off und working for him. This kind of a game is so emi nentiy characteristic of Howe and his methods that it will not be questioned. 1f it is questionea it will be proved.

As near as Mr Randall could mine at noon, thoy must have taken at least §500 worth, consisting of se skin caps, suits, jewelry, gents' furnish- ings and a few overcoats.

The petition filed in court by the husband recited that all the time in_which the courtship was in progress his wifo represeitod by word and act that she was chaste and virtuous, he 50 believed her and they were v on the 25th of Wovem- ber, and the first intimation the man bad that all was not right came to him on the 4th duy of the March following, when his wife prosented him with u bastard child, own- g up to its parentage. Since thut time a separation has existed in the Thackara famnly and the wife departed for some other point and the case for divoreo was brought in court. ‘Che verification of the petition by afliduvits was made and the bill for divorce. was granted as prayed for.

Your correspondent has ineidentally Iooked up the standing of Church Howe during his sojourn in Wyoming as United Stutes marshal and frankly it appears to bo even WORSE THAN 1115 NEBRASKA RECORD, althongh greatly similar in political methods, In 1808 Wyoming was d into a ternitory, and mong the officials jinted by ssident Johnson was Church Howe, d in Massachusetts. Almost (tely upon his arrival at Chey- which was tnen as it now, the capital of the y, Howe commenced a careor which for violence of ail decency and regard for honest pnrpose appear to no equal in the history of the ter- ritory. Within a few months after his arrival ho mixed with the rougher element of territory and was known as one of the boys. At the time Cheyenne being new was naturally rough, and variety shows and other dives to cateh the money of jgnorant and foolish men were numer- ousin the oy, Howe wa frequenter of these remember him s o patron of MeDan famous hurdy-gurdy conc: he made himself more than ordinarily conspic- uous by having the female attaches of the pitce gathered around him and seated on his lap. Shortly after Howe arri he appeirs to have perfe deal with the the i ent of the Union Pacific r: when the time came to hold & convention to nom- innta a delegate in congress called a meeting at 1 City, and with Charles W. and & man named Hamm tendents of the Union Pa prominent republicans that if they would nominate Howo for congress, they would insure the support of their road for him, The offer was not accepted, and another gontleman was pnt up, to whom Howe gave only a negative support. Again, in 1870, Howe was a candidate for the oflice, but was again defeated by a gentleman named W. Jones, one of the territorial judges HOWE BOLTED THE NOMINATION and worked for Jones’ defeat. In 1872 Howe, after again failing to get the re- publican nomination, went to the demo- crats and endeayored to induce them to vote for him. Upon his failure to g the support of either party he organ- i in 1872 what was known as the ‘‘people’s movement,” which had for its chief objcet the overthrow of tho republican party in the territory and to serve Howe's own personal ambition, He owned a paper at South Puss and its utterances, all inspired by Howe him- soif, were very bitter against the party and President Grant; particularly st the Iatter were many vile and " libelous article which, had they appeared in the east at that time even, much less the present, would have undoubtedly insured Howo's either being nssussinaf or driven from the community, decorated with & coat of tar and featlers. Asso- ciated with Howe in the “people’s move ment” were H. J. Rogers, a broken-down banker at Cheyenne, and J.

The convention did not proy coss and Howe, greatly enraged, over to the democratic’ party and tried to ohtain its nomination for “delegate to congress. The democrats refused to take him’ up, and corrupt and oflicious to the lust he interfered in its deliberations, and through the agency of money and the influence of the Umnion Pacific bought the vote of a member of the convention for W. R, Steele, who thereby obtained the nomination by one majority. The aflidayit of M. P. Hanni- fin, a well known business man of Cheyenne at this time, who was a member of the conven- tion in question, gives light upon the watter and shows that be was also ap- proached by one of Howe's missionaries, # man named Mr. Laughlin, with a bribe which was refused by Hannifin and taken up the next day by Stillman, whose vote broke the tie which had oexisted for three days prior to that time between Luke Murrin and W. R. Steele and gave the nomination to the latter. During the CANVASS hich ensued Howe used every means to secure Steelo’s election over a republican and it was through his offorts that the republican nominee, Hon. W. W. Cor- lett, now & leading resident of the terri- toty anyg an ex-delegate to congress, was defeated for the office at that time. In every wiy he worked for the defeat of the republican ticket, He efforts and organization of the *‘people’s movemeni” attracted the attention of the Wyoming Tribune, the leading republican paper of the territory, wnk{-‘h apon July 6, 1873, devoted the following article to Church Howe and his associates: lt?"‘.‘ om the Wyoming Tribune ot July 6, ~ AND THE MOUNTAIN LABORED, *Fhis paper has kept silent in respect to T BB s LR A BEE: WEDNESDAY THK .

Sometimes it was under one pretext, sometimes under another, but always with the one objectin view of & seal i congress. In these years which havo past w notable to see that the ex-mar- shal has made much towards the goal of iis amtion. The card which' this expert politician has depended upon (o win his game has been the influence of the Union Pacilic rallroad, but we think by this time he has discovercd that men are men if i ployed by a great corporation. but the word of the e an control the raiiroad company. 5 he uses to this end are not pow- ing away other peoples’ dozs to d oflicials in Omaha may ding hie political destiny of this ter- lave confidence that no new tion, to the destruction of the repub- liean party, ¢an be built upon such w founda- tion. To review the politieal record of te ex-marshal in this territory s to give the history of all the trouble in "the republi- can party and the origin of the ( move- ment. His strength in this torritory does not number 1ty votes, and the power he boasts of with the railroad company isa_confession of his weakness before the people. We all know that when Judie Jones was nominated the ex-marshal announced himsell as an in- dependent eand date, but_afterwards con- cluded he could do more harm by feigning acquieseence in the decision of the conven- tion. 1In that vum(n\zn he sold the influence of the South Pass News, a paver which he owned, to John Wauless, the democratic can: didate, for §250, and this'very paper, is published 'at Laramie City, Independent, a ° nondeseript bushe whacking ~'journal, devoted to nothing but the abnse of the republican party from President Grant down and to the support of the ex-marshal. We have devoted this much of our space to the ex-marshal, bocause he is held up as the leader of this new party in the territory which was born of his disap- pointment and defeat and the platform of which is published to the people in the silly twaddle of the bill of indictment which was read at Laramie the other evening, With such a leader and such a platform what may not these distinguished citizens expect to _ac- complish with Howe in_congress, Cook as ehicf justice and Rogers as governor. Then indeed, will our territory have reached its nolitical milleniu A DISTURBING FACTOR Having been such a disturbing factor in the party since his adyent nto the ter- ritory, and_ for other and officinl reasons he was removed by the I sident in the early part of 1878, and a gentleman named Milyoy, a valiant and useful offi- cor in the union army, was appointed from Indiana to fill Howe's place. The artful dodger learned of Milroy's ap- pointment and took good care to be on hand when the goneral arrived Meeting him upon the arrival of the first train Howe fulsely told the general that he himsolf had boen foroed to reslgn tho office because he could not make any- thing out of it, and as a friend would ad- vise him notto takeit. The general, asim- ple minded old gentleman, thoroughly unawsre of Howe's real churacter, allowed himself to be fooled and left on the next train back to his home. ‘The truth was the oflice was the most lucra- tive one; honestly conducted, and much moto #o under Howe's rule if the stories of the best and mostr 1lpon.~||rh' residents of the territory speik the truth, and they, undoubtedly do, as will appear further on. At the time of Howe's dei from the republican party Dr. Georg Corey, the leading physician of the terri- to and at present an honorable and prominent citizen of Cheyenue, w chairman of the ternitorial republi n or long committee and also chairman of the Largmie county centra} committe 1 saw this gentleman, who, being an ardent and true republican from | vle, wus § and astonished to learn that dowe had sccured the vepublican nom- inution to congress in ska, und upon being requested sk to muk afliduvit of facts which had come under his notice during Church Howe sojourn in- Wyoming.

This arrest and pros ecution wus matde by Howe and it was al In John at CLOTHING PARL ways supposed that he ot most of the | Dufly’s Fure Malt Whiskey or Made at $12.00 1100 0RS money resulting from the sale of the horses. Among Howe's deputics was . notor- ious three card monte man named Jack MeDonald, o friend and pal of the well known Canada Bill. A favorite scheme of this fellow’s, was to go about Choy- onno and take up horses and arrest their owners on frivolons ch: He always picked out_ignorant persons and then terrorize him into either paying monoy or giving up the horses. A favorite mothod of action was to pick ont a horse belonging to some herder who had come totown o see the sights. MeDonald would o up to the horse, and mixing up a little dirt and water, mark U. 8. upon the horse’s shoulde: Ho would then go mnto the saloon where the half-drunken owner was drinking and ssk him why he had stole government horse. Upon the owner’s protest MeDonald would lead him out and show him the mark put on himself. The poor drunken herder f sc. to death would be arrested i tuken to Fort D. A, Russell, near heyenne, and locked up. In a day or two he would be permitted to go minus his horse, which was CONFISCATED TO PAY “CosTs" created by Howe and Lis deputy Me- Donald. These are-but o few instances of Howe's utter depravity.

Howe'was absent from the territory at the time, without leaye, and, though the government, thoroughly frightened by a long article published in the Cmemnati Gazette at the time charging Howe with l A LARGE EMBEZZLEMENT of government funds, he could found. “The next heard of him Nebraska, where he has since The statement made by Mr as follow M. 8 AFFIDAVITT, Wyomine ¥, Lataiie county, ss: Martin P, Hannitin, Deing first_duly sworn, deposes and says that ho is chief of the fire department of the city of Cheyenne, in the county and territor that ever ever since 1867 he has been and still is a re dent and citizen of thesaid city of Cheyenne; that he was personally acquainted with Church Howe, now a resident of Nemaha county, in the' stato of Nebraska. between 1809 and 1878, when the said Howe was United States’ marshal in aud for the said territory, and that during tho said period of time afllant was familiar with the political career of the said Howe in sald territory, Afhant further savs that immediately after his coming here, the said Howe went actively into politics, urging hirself upon- the r- publican parly with great persistence for the highest offices in the territory, but failing of promotion in that party as rapidly ashe wished he becan to curry favor with the democrats, that in 1872 he (Howe) was pres- nt at a democrad: convention held in aramile city to noninate a delogate Lo repro- sent the territory in concress and that afliant was one of the delegates of the said conven- tion, and was personally present during its doliberations, "Afliant further says that said Howe was ' attendance upon the said con- vention throughout its entira session which continued for three days, and that it was the general understanding and talk among the delegates that said Howe wanted the con- vention to honor him with the nomination, “The fight for the nomination linally nar- rowed down between Luke Murrin and W.

Afliant further siys that 8500 and a pass over the Union Pacitic railroad was offerea to him by Juduo MeLaughlin if he would vote for Steele, but afliant declined the offer and continudd to support Murrin to the last.
