Not long ngo, and in a public moeting, bloated up with his own importance, Sherift Bennett doclared, without a blush of shame sweeping over his countenance, that he nhad been the bost sheriff that the county of Douglas had over had. Not satistied wish this assertion, he oven went farther and afirmed that upon all occasions he had strictly enforced the Inws of tho state of Ne- behska If there was any attempted violation of the same, The poople who were gathered around Bennett cheered lim to tho echo. This pleased the shoeriff amnzingly and placing himself at the end of a saloon bar, he ordered the drinks for the house, while a couple of hundred individuals walked up and quenched their thirst. As tho glasses were emptied they wero ordered filled again and agaim, while all went merry and Bennett footed the bills Whether Benuett has enforced the laws of the stato and prevented their violation is another thing. He declares that hoe has. On the statute books thero is law against gambling, a law which makes the plaging of all games of chance a crime, but at the same timo there is Indisputablo evidenco that the sheriff and some of hisdeputios have visitod the gambling houses of tho city; that they have taken free drinks rrom the proprietors of the establishments and have made no effort to stov the games or prevent the vio- lation of the laws. Instead of doing anything of the kind, thesc peace oficers have watched tho tiger in his laic and have quietly stool by and watched the unsophisticated contribute their share to the support of the beast.

Their principal hobby, however, i8 t0 bank on the corpse of tho Placto river canal scheme. This they are working for all that it is worth, Notwithstanding the fact that City Attor. ney Connell has repeatedly held that the city would have noauthority to go out of tho ten-mile limiv to_condemn and acquire the title to land, Hascall continues to inform the laboring mon of Omaha that If the bonds carry work upon the construction of the canal will begin within thirly days after the election is held. To boom his own political canso I has started an employment burean, where he is rogistering the names of laboring men that thoy mAy be sure of work when the ditch arted. This little schome ho is working to o fuish as a vote catcher, Whon he meets a man who is in want of employment he simply requests that man to rogistor his name with vhe bureau, inform ing him that by o doing he will be one of tho firat ones to bo given work, and as he will bo one of the first his chances for hay- ing steady employment will be much better than they would be if the filing of the appli- cation were dolayed until after eleotion. This delusion and snare has already caught 3 1 hundred poring men, who have made their applications and ave patiently waiting to commenco throwing dirt. Men who happen to be behind the scenes claim that some of the corporations have taken hold of tho canal pioject and are booming it through the aid of hired cmis. saries, with the id that when the bonds re voted the procesds will be used for some hor purpose than buildiog a canal. I'he plan which has been adopted is to force all of the city candidates into pledging themselves to work for the bouds, and to this ond six men are scouring the city today seeking signatures to the agreement, of which the following is a copy: Whom Tt May orn: We, tho unde slgnod candidates, now up and endorsed for the differsnt position St by the several urties € Douglus, e s il county iforosid. \croby according to the hestof our ability, at wnd all tin do_this.

Dr. Samuel D. Mercer's backers are not all true ‘blue, and already thero is desertion from the ranks of the rainbow chasers.

It was too late to comply with the request of the gentlemen, and they insisted that they were not supporters of Dr. Mercer. The two gentlemen are G. S. Benawa and J. L.

Mr. Benawa, in explaining his position to those in the office of the city clerk, said that his name should not properly appear on the pe- tition and he attuched iv with tho agreement that to be used only in the of certain things transpiring. He stated that he was for the re-election of Mayor George P. Bemis, and that he signed the petition sev- oral weeks ago. At the time it was under- stood that his name was not to go in case Mayor Bemis was renominated. and only in the event that Dr. Mercor was defeated for the nomination and some other person than Mayor Bemis was nominated for the office. He considers that he has not been kept faith with and desired his name stricken n}f his could not be done after the petition had been filed, and Mr. Benawa was competled to content himsolf with a gigantic kick.
