A little attention to both might be profitable inasmuch as the region herenbouts contains some rivals of the city. While neithor line can afford to miss Omaha, there are various ways of getting into the city and astub line is not the best style of con- nection.

It is known to all Nebraskans that the confederated monopolies have had absolute control of the machinery of the republican party for more than fif- toon yoars, They packed owe primaries and conventions and dictated our nomi- nees from constable up to governor. man anbitious to fill a place of honor or trust had any chance of nomination unless he was able to enlist the influence of the railroad managers in his support, In 1538 Neb s con- tingent to the national republican con- vention was mado up of soven railrond lawyers and three corporation favorites, This state of affairs finally calminated in a popular revolt whoss mutterings loud and deep made themselves heard soon after the last presidential slection, A year ago this ver? month n conforence of earnest vopublicans, impressed with the disastor with which the party was menaced, met in- conferonce at the state capital and passed a scries of resolu- tions sotting forth the abusos that we alienating large numbers of vapublics and appealing to tho rank and file to rescue the party from the control of cor- porate monopoly and pledge it to the reforms demanded by the producing and industri Among these reso- lutions were the following: I inte That we view tent among t olved, dis with alarm the ropublicans of the state, chiefly due to tt »us and de- moralizing interference of corporations aid their attenpts to control all departments of our state government—legislative, oxocuti and judicial—-and we earnestly appeal to ull republicans who desire to prese our insti tutions 1o rally to the rescuo of our state from corporate domination by actively par ticipating in the primary elections and nom- inating conventions Itesolved, That while we desire to accord to rmlrond corporations their rightsand priv- ileges as common carriers, we demand hat they shall go out of poiitics and stop inter- ference with our conventions and legislatures, Ltesolved, That rauroad passes distributed in this state for political purposes are species of bribery pernicious in mctr nfluence and tending ‘to undermine public morals, sub- versive toa free and unbought expression of the will of the people in their conventions, legislatures nm!]ufles, and we hereby de’ mand the prohibition of vasses, and freo transportation in any form, under severe penalties, Resolved, That Nebraska has for years been subject to exorbitant transportation rates, discriminating against her products, thus retarding her development, and we con- demn the stato board of trausportation for failing to nxercise tho autbority vested in them and by refusing to afford to the people the relief they were pledeed to give. Wo therefore domand that the legislature shall enact a maximum taviff bill covering the transportation of our products and principal Imports. These resolutions were the republican state platform, 3ut when the party nominated u railroal politiciar and money lender as its suand- ard bearer the platform became a mockery. The vepublican fasmers who know the man and his aliiliation with the corporations went over to the inde- pendents almost in a body. Incidentally, the action of republican conventions and embodied in legislatures in attempting to foist prohibition upon the stato lost the party the support of fully 10,000 republicans who had form- evly fought in the ranks of the pavi through thick and thin, while not a voie was gained from the ranks of the prohi- bitionizsts. be outcome i3 well known.

Nor dol pro' 5080 1o bandy words with the few milksop editors who are striving to become lead- ers when thoy have not brains enough 10 keep out of the wet, My support of the republican state ticket was all that could have been asked or expected, and the charge of conspiracy or collusion with democrats to defeat Richards is as infamous as it is bas: I will only cite one instance. After Richards had returned from his junket to Boston and Washington, which delayed the active campuign nearly sixty days *and gave the independents great advantage in the field, the committee decided to fivo the opening gun at Fre- mont. 1 went to General John C. Coyin personally and spent one hou in pleading with him to go to Fremont, because [ regarded him as one of the most offective campaign speakers and believed that his speech would exert wholesome influence for the ticket. General Cowin declined on account of business pressure. I submit to all can- did men whether such an offort on my part voluntarily is evidence of treachery to Richards and collusion with Boyd, In the midst of the campaign I en- guged, at $200 & month, Mr, Smythe of Kearney, a warm supporter of Richards, and gave him full swing ou tho editorinl | page, which he devoted largely toeulo- | gies and defense of Richards, And this was supplomented by articles prepared hy Richards’ home organ-grinder.. But Richards at best is only a reminiscence now. He could have been elected hud he polled the vote of his associates on the republican ticket outside of Douglas county. He could have been elocted had ho taken a bold and manly position on the prohibition issue instend of skulking aud trying to convert liquor dealers by patronizing Omaha beer saloons in the night time ! Now us to Boyd. Ihave supported 1l to the | James . Boyd in the contest before the legisiature bacause as u true republican 1 boliove in afres ballot, an honest count and the supromacy of majorities.

The assertion that there was fraud, bribsry and intimidation of | voters at Omaha in the interest of Boyd I koow to be acalumny gotten up | disappointed and vindictive* proh | tionists. Believing Boyd to have been duly elected | and condemn any attempt to deprive the people of their choice upon hnicalitie T considor it vank injustice for republi- cans to countenance the ousting of Boyd as an alleged alien. A man who helped to lay the foundations of the eommon- wealth and shavod the hardships and privations of our pionecrs is a good deal more of u citizen than any native who came to Nebraska after she had become populous and potential, We did not oust- the boy governor who was elected chief executive in violation of the mandate of the constitution that expressly directs that no person under 30 shall be governor, and we could have endured Boyd without wrenching the constitution too much and doing vio- lence to our patriotism, I deem tho ousting of Boyd a grave and irreparable blunder from u partisan standpoint. In the first scorn place the republicans were forced to make common cause with democ in favor of Boyd at the outset the legislative session. Had done otherwise the republican they state officers who received a plurality of the popular vote would have been counted out with Boyd, and the independents, who received the minority vote would have been counted in. What is the situation now? Nebraska is a political field shaped like a triangle. Each side of the triangle represents an army of 70,000 voters. So long as the 70,000 republicans could keap the 70,000 democrats from fusing with the 70,000 inaependents their fighting chance wa decigedly favorable. There was a fair prospect that the 10,000 voters who fell out of line on account of prohibition would como back this year, and large numbers of union veterans who do not want to help elect a democratic presi- dent would vote the national republican ticket in 1802, The rallying center of the democracy was arvound Boyd. He was not only the center but the wedge that provented any coalition of the two avmi arrayed against the vepublicans. The ousting of Boyd at once caused the sloughing of demo- crats over into the indepondent eamp, and if this exodus carries off over twenty thousand democrats, republican success in 1892 is hopeless unless the party can win back an equal number of republicans, ‘What shall we do to be saved? This is the question that coufronts us now and which mainly inspires me to write this letter. Lat us be frank with ourselves. The republican party does not desorve to rule Ne“raska unless 1t redeems its pledges and discards the leaders whose allegiance to the party and devotion to the people’s in- terests are secondary to their nilegiance to the railroads and corporate monopo- lies generally. We canuot hope to win in the battle either this year or in 1892 unless we do something tangible for the producers. Promises will no longer bo accopted as a legal tender by our farmers and working me, We must euther veconvene the legislatiere and give the people the velief w2 have prom- ised or foree the stale bowrd of transporta- tion to do its duty. Good crops will doubtless bring batter times and the flat money and sub-treas- ury craze will subside when farmers have sold their surplus at good prices. But the demand for reduced railrond rates will not abate until it has been complied with. An abundant harvest will emphasize this demand for lower rates more than over, undit is simply out of question to expect any recruits from our farming people so long as our party which controls the board of trans- portation und is responsible for it fails to act up to its platform promises, IFor myself, I can seo no salvation for our party by any othercourse, and unless our state officers are willing to sacrifice not only the party in this state but of the nation they will heed my admonition, TWATER. The regulars of the Omaha medical fraternity are very much incensed be- cause the newspapers porsist in taking pay for advertising from doctors who do not belong to thewr set. The packed coroner's jury in the Molody caso has furnished them a text for denouncing the venality of publishers. This is decidedly refreshing. There is searcely a member among the entive collection of sawhones who would not at any time and all times be very glad to secure a hall-column advertisement in our dailies; providing, alwa theso puffs were published without charge. Now so far as the manugement of tho medical instituto is concerned, no papor will in any way attempt to palliate its treatment of Melody, alive or dead. BBut we resent, and have a vight to re- sent the mean imputations of venality on the part of the publishors of news- papers, Their columns nre constantly open to charity, and not a day passes when they do not contribute valuable space that is a markoetable commodity in aiding poor people and furthering works of benevolence, How is it with the doctor: How many of them are ready toan- swer the call of distress from a poor man unless the fee is guaranteed in advanc Scarcely o day passes without reports coming In und often suppressed for the benelit of some doctor that some poor wuman in the agonies of disea able %o induce a physician to r pain, When it comes to charging mercenary greed L) the press the regulurs had bote ter go very slow.

The fact is that the decline in the cut- lery trade of the centor of that industry in England is not altogethor due to our tariff, but to the steady advance in the quality of American cutlery, which has given it access to markets for years monopolized by the Knglish manufac- turers. ———— THE troasury will be able to redeem the 4} per eent bonds falling due Sep- tember 1 next, amounting to about $50,- 000,000, but it appears that the secre- ary would prefer to extend a portion of them if he can do soat a reduced rate of interest.

The cottages aro for the use of vecently arrived Jewish immigrants, many of thom now liv- ing in the crowded tenement houses of Now York. The cottages will be well built, de- tached houses of eight rooms, with a yard large enougl: 1o enable the tenant to grow veeetables for family use. If the tenant de- sires, we will sell him the house at a low price on the payment of $150 to %300, as the case may be, the cent 50 that thy v case be Jower tha actually paying 1u vent for thoir presont filthy houses in the cities, We will begin this experiment with only fift, houses, which wo expect to have rei ina few months, If these warr: g0 right ahead so that before the close of the year from 2 to 200 cottages will be completed, “In order to avoid the appearanceofa claritable settlement, the architecture of these cottages will be diversitied to please tha finer senses und the better tastes of the more cultivated. We are in hopes that this experiment will settle the long vexed question of tencment houses in every large city, for if our plan is carried out successfully other or. ganizations will undonbtedly - follow our ox- ample. None of the nihilist. socialist or an- arctst element will bo toterated." - SHE SCREAM D IN A CAB, g Woman Creates a Sensation in Newark.
