N. V. HARLAN INTERVIEWED. A Talk About the Candidates For the Various Stato Offices. SECOND DISTRICT POLITICS. A Btreet Railway Opinton--Complaints of Extortion Entered Against ital City News. 102 P Srreer, LaxcoLy, August 1, Hon. N. V. Harlan was in the city yesterday on legal business. He left for home on the 10:15 westward bound pas- senger last night, but while he was sit- ting in front of the Capital hotel enjoy- ing the cool breeze of the evening he was approached by THe Bk tive and after cordial grec sented to a quiet intervie Harlan expressed himself on all questionain his positive, characteristic manner, leaving 100 doubt s to where he stood or what he believed “Well, sir,” he said, in his pleasant off-hand manner, “*what do you want to know?” “York county, I understand, has a candidate for attorney general?” “Well, yes,” smilingiy said Mr. Har- lan. “W. T. Scott will go into the con- vention with a solid delegation from York county, and we hope to see him nominated. Ho is all right, favors rail- way regulation and has & conscience on all public questions,” *‘But in the event that Scott cannot make it, for whom would the vote of York county be cast?’, “Oh, I think for Attorney General Leese without any doubt, but we propose 1o do all that we can for Scott.” “Has York county any other candi- date for a state office?” “No, the county has not, but Mr. Anderson is urged as a candidate for commissioner of public lands and build- ings by the Scandinaviens from dif- ferent parts of the state. He is strong among the Swedish portions of the state. He has lived in York county a long time, and is known to be & man of thorough business qualifications. I can Bee an emergency that would lead the county to cast a solid vote for him.”” “When do you hold your county con- vention?” “Next Saturdny. Tt promises to be red hot, too We have three candidates for the legislature, and one of them will have to stay at home. I think that A. E. Gilbert will be nominated. The fight will be between C. W. Hayes and A. W. Wellman, with the chances in favor of the latter. Hayes, however, is agood man. York county will send a strong anti-monopoly delegation to tho next Nebraska assembly. Keckley will be returned to the senate. Iam nota candidate. 1 can not afford to leave my legal business. There will also be a gharp fight botween G. W. Shrick and J. P. Miller for the office of sherff. Mr. Shrick, the present deputy, will doubtlcss be nominated.” ““Will there be much of a fight made against Laird for congress in the Sec- ond distriet?” *The democrats will probably re- nominate McKegan, but I do not think he will poll as heavy a vote as he did two years ago. Laird will be re-elected. Indeed, the republican party, 1 think, will move to victory all along the line. Harrison and Morton will be elected. There is no douht about it.” **You speak confidently.” “‘Not more so than the outlook war- rants. But it is almost time for my train, and I must go. Good night, sir,” and the distinguished gentleman moved rapidly away in the darkness. A STREET RAILWAY OPINION. At the session of the city council last night the city attorney submitted the following opinion regarding the railway tracks on Twelfth street, so long o question of agitation and bickering, and possibly its text will tend to sottle and adjust matters relating to the same. fils certainly clear, pointed and gouod w: Lixcouw, Nus, July 27, 1888-To tho Mayor and'Council of the City of Lincoin— Gentlemen: In the matter of the contro- versy batween the Capital Heights Street Railway company and the Rapid Transit company over the occupancy of Twelfth stroet, [ desiro to submit the - following opun o LixcoLN BUREAU oF TiE OMANA Bee, } In this state the only way a street railway can acquire the r:ifim to lay its tracks and operate a street railroad on the streets of a ;:ét:‘l is b :““l:::‘“ umhe‘co;:lcnll of a ma- rity of the voters of the city, voting @t an election called for that purpose. Unless expressly granted, no company can scquire the exclusive right to a particular street. It is, however, specified in all ordi- fiances, granting franchises to such compa- nies, that have been adopted by the Lin. coln'city council, that the franchise granted is not exclusive. ' All the ordinances provide that the company shall be subject to all rea- sonable regulations in the construction and mlo! said railway which may be imposed by inance. D1 believe that the city council has the right o provide by ordinance the number of tracks which may be laid upon any one street, that 1t may require one company to lay its tracks a little to one side of the street to permit a second company to lay tracks on the same streets. The council may also rve- uire two Or more companies to use ‘the same track jointly for a reasonable dis- tance, Where stich use is necessary to reach any part of the city not accommodated by strect railways. The expense of constructing and maintain- ing such tracks to be borne jointly bY the several companies using the same, And where one company has constructed its tracks tho council may require it to 'p«nnil. any other company to use its tracks for the purpose above stated upon said second com- pany making reasonable compensation for jhe same, and assuming an equal share of the expense of maintaining said tracks. In the present case 1 would recommend that the eouncil require the Rapid Transit and Capital Height companies to lay a joint track or tracks on Twelfth street from N to P street. T would recommend the adoption of an o nance providing full and explicit rules and regulations T.-veru‘mg this matter, and in general regulating street railroads in this city. Very respecttully, G. M. LAMBERTSON, ity Attorney. 9AE ELKHORN COMPLAINED AGAINST. The wave of freight tarift agitation still continues to roll. Itisbut just, however, to state thata great mazyy gomplatnts are filed before the Leard of transportation upon which o action whatever is taken,and for the simple - “reason that the complainant fails to verify his siatements when a foymu- lated complaint is returned to him by the board.

A friend of his who spoke to him concerning the report that he was organizing an expedi- tion to the Antarcticseas said: ‘*Villard has nlmpl{ interested himself in such an expedi- tion through his friendship for the scientist that is getting it up. Villard is simply one of a number who have subscribed to defray the expenses. It is a purely scientific matter and has no commercial value or bearing, and I belieye that the scheme still hangs, as there has not yet been enough money subscribed.

Olark’s Snccessor Chosen—Other Rallway Matters, General Manager Roswell Miller, of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, has issued a circular appointing Albert J. Earl- ing general superintendent of the road, to fill the vacancy caused by the deathof J. T. Clark. Division Superintendant W. G. Col- lins is appointed assistant general superis tendant, These appointments take effect August 1. Mr. Earling began his railroad career at the age of seventeon as an operator on the Chicago & Northwestern, under J. R. Bu- chanan, now general passenger agent of the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missour: Valley. The St. Paul officials, attracted by the young man’s superior business abilities, soon after secured his services. He became a favorite of Phil Armour, who is now his chief backer. Three years ago he was offered the general superintendency of the Canadian Pacific, at a salary of of §10,00) per year, but Mr. Armour declared that if he was worth $10,000 a year to_the Canadian Pacific he was worth that much to the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul. Mr. Earling is about forty years of age and is a very capable and efficient man. ~He is very popular witn his subordinates and it is doubt- ful if a more able successor to Mr. Clark could have been selected. ‘estive Spotter, There is fear and trembling among the con- ductors on the Unios last month the individual known as the “spotter” has been at work,and as a result of the Republican Valley branch were his _investigations, three conductors on the recipients of a' yellow envelope, Their names are George Gordon, J. T. Wiscman and G. I". Beekley. R.J. Mantz, Thomas Robb and C. S. McNeil succeed them. These dismissals arc not the only ones by 1eans as still the spotter pursues his investigations. More About Harvest Excursions. The general passenger department of the B. & M. issued a circular yesterday re- garding the proposed harvest excursions, which will be duplicated by other Nebraska and Kansas lines to-day, which contains instructions to agents concerning the tickots to be sold. Tickots, as has already been stated in Tur Bee, will be sold to points in the two named states to which the one-way rate is $3 and upwards from the Missouri river, and will_be sold to points in Colorado as far west as Fort Morgan and Grover, the former on the Denver liue, the latter on the Cheyenne line. Tickets will be good for thirty days and no extension of tho return limit will be granted. The Freight Agents Meeting. Aswas stated in yesterday's issue the meeting of freight agents held in this city was for the purpose of settling tho matter of grain rates from Kansas City. The meeting referred the matter to a com- mittee composed of the representatives of the Union Pacitic’s Kansas line, Agent At- ‘wood of the Chieago, Kansas & Nebraska, Agent Milligan of the St. Joseph & Grand Island, Agent Munroe of the Union Pacitic, Agent Bartle ot the Kansas City, St. Joo & Council Bluffs, and General Agent Bartle of the Santa Fe. ‘What the outcome, if any, will be, 18 un- kuown, but the result will in'no wise affect Omaha.

Hartford Courant: Travelers by rail are all familiar with the disagreeable smell and vexatious delays arising from “‘hot boxes,” and probably there are but few who do not understand what the term means, as hot boxes are by no means nnknown on vehicles drawn by animals, many a wheel on a farm wagon having been ruined by the axle-grease becoming overheated. The selection of a proper material for packing the jour- nal boxes in which the ends of car axles run, and the exercise of due cace in its inspection and rvenewal, is one of the great problems of raitroad management, and the employes of the leading roads are jealous of their reputation in this matter. These remarks were suggested by a very aggravated case of hot box on the northbound limited express recently, which caused a delay of nearly twenty minutes. When the box was opened a dense cloud of smoke rolled out, and the entire neighborhood was disagree- ably perfumed. This particular offender was on a Boston & Albany drawing- room car, and recalled a ‘recent ex- Ycrience of the writer’s in the Spring- ield depot. While waiting for a New Haven train, a through western ex- ress from Boston rolled into the usot, bringing with it the pungent and unmistakable odor of a very hot box. It was soon located under a Wag- ner sleeping car. While the oxperi- enced physicions were o[mrnlln;z upon the patient with the usual liberal doses of water, o01l, waste, etc., the writer ventured a query as to whether the car was new, knowing that new cars were very apt to be aflicted with the malady. The reply was that the car was an old one but that the Central (New York Central) people did not properly take care of their journals, as the B, & A. did and that most of the hot box trouble at Springfield was on cars of outside roads, coupled with a delicate hint that the Consolidated rond had a good deal of trouble of this kind, The writer has come to the conclusion that railroad men ave like the Mississippian who, in rusfimnso to an inquiry from a stranger, replied: “No (slap), we (whack) don’t (slap) have many skeeters (slap, whack) round yere, (slap) but they're mighty thick (whack) down yonder” (slap). Apropos of the fact that new cars are prone to be afflicted with hot boxes, the writer romembers a certain dicraal trip from New York to Albany on the Hud- son River railroad. It was the evening befors the glorious Foursh, and as hot as it ever knows how to be on the east bank of that river when the sun is climbing down the west 1n a cloudless sky. Standing room was at a preminm in every one of the dozen or so coaches on the train, and the gentle rain of cin- ders fell alike on the just and the un- just. It was the ‘‘first ific express,” and the first stop on the bills was Peekskill. But on this particular ocea- l::;n l?eefi:}dll was lgont the tl:.lh.h stop. It just passed Spuyten Duyvil when the dl!unded hob-bl:)xy smell first made itself manifest. There were five sfllck and ngnn brand-new coaches on the train, and before it reached Albany, in the early dawn, five or six hours late, nearly every journal under these cars had called, not loudly but strongly, for atiention. The ~stock of rem: edies on board was finally ex- bausted, and the journey - was finished at a snail’s ,. surrounded bvan odor that would terrify a dozen THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, AUGUST 2. 1888 i = s FOR THE TREA N VPN h EDICAL AN SURGIGAL | i\ S L I T TE).

She had described to him in her own way the on-rush of Pickett’s men and the hand-to-hand conflict at the stone fence where the Pennsylvania veterans met the charge of the south- erners, when he ‘asked, “*But where’s the artillery, Mag?” “Oh, you mean the big guns.
