LINCOLN, Dec. 8—(Special.)—Governor Crounse today appointed the following dele- gates to the Nebraska State Irrigation con- vention at Kearney, December 18 and 19: A. 8. King, Culbertson; T. V. Golden, John J. McCafterty, O'Neill; Prof. 0. V. P. Stout, State university; H. W. Guine, North Platte; A, B. Woods, Gering, L. H. Jewitt, Broken Bow; John H. MacColl, Lexington. ) The governor has also appointed two of the soveral delegates to the Cotton States and In- ‘dustrial exposition, to be opened at Atlanta, Qa., September 18, and hold until December 31, 1895. They are Colonel George E. Jen- Xins, Falrbury, and F. M. Brome, recelver of Aho Dnited States land office at Alliance. There are others to be appointed, and it is the request of Governor Crounse that such per- sons as desire to attend as delegates make it Xnown to him at an early date, that he may complete the full complement of Nebraska. There are also eight women delegates to be selected, at the equest of the board of women managers of the exposition. The importance of this enterprise is not, perhaps, fully real- 12ed by the people residing morth of Mason and Dixon's line. The exposition is not con- fined in Its limitations to southern states, or even to the American union. The king of Belglum has agreed to send an exhibit from the Congo Free State, and another is expected from Siberia. Others will be recelved from Mexico, Venezuela, Colombla and the Central American republics. CRANK HUNTER AGAIN. The indefatigable and verbose crank, Ben- jamin F. Hunter, has again assailed Gov- ernor Crounse with another letter. The other one, received two weeks since, a synopsis of which was given in The Bee, was in the na ture of a warning, and was entitled *'Siding The following one threatens dire disaster to the city of Lincoln and the inhabitants thereof. It is necessary to correct the or- thography to a considerable extent, as the author persists in spelling the name of the Deity with a little g and Lincoln with a lower case 1: WASHINGTON, D, C., Mercy Here” To the Governor of Ne- braska: You are informed that among cities which shall be smitten with a terrible bad calamity and destroyed inside of two years from this very day is the one in Which you now live, known as Lincoln. Every house there shall be thrown down level with the ground, and all the in- habitants thereof shall be scattered so that not two of them shall be found together. It s, also, the office of the prophet, who is, also, a Nazarite unto God, to tell the people what God is going to do to them for thelr past wickedneas. But under no cir- oumstances is he allowed to tell them when. Thus saith the Lord, “The wicked shall ali 1 at once, yea, wiil 1 scatter them to the corners of the earth. Amen.'' BENJAMIN F. HUNTER. ROBBED WHILE DRUNK Sam Listonberger was at police headquar- tors today with a complaint that he had been despoiled of between $60 and $70 and a draft for $600. According to his story he passed a considerable portion of yesterday in an alco- holic trance. - When or how he went to bed at the Boyd hotel he doesn't know, but he fully cealized this morning that his money, watch ‘and the draft had mysteriously disappeared.

Today the police arrested Lee and Joe Reardon. There was nothing tangible to indicate that Reardon had mixed up in the affair and he was discharged. Lee is locked up awalting an investigation. Listenberger is a stockman 1iving on a farm near Bradshaw, IN THE DIVORCE COURT. Thomas H. Dewey, a carpenter in Bast Lin- coln, filed an answer to his wife's petition for divorce today. It is alleged by Dewey that some seven years ago his wife became an admirer and zealous convert to the teachings of Rev. Mr. Minehart, then pastor of Grace Method'st Episcopal church. Thereupon plain- tift declared their marriage and sexual rela- tlons wicked, withdrew from his bed and home and has ceased from all wifely relations with defendant for the past five years. William Henry Wilcox, baker, is in a sad plight, and he would be much obliged if some gent skilled in soclal economics would kindly drop in and tell him how he is going to obey the court’s orders to pay his wife Annle $15 a month alimony when he is only earn- ing and receiving the simple sum of $10 per month. Along last June Mrs. Wilcox se- cured a divorce from Willlam, and the order for alimony. Willlam had begun the divorce business, praying for a decree on the ground that his wife had committed adultery with George Waggoner, clerk in Duling’s equine provision emporium. She denled it, and claimed Willlam had neglected the little for- mality of contributing to her support. Wil- liam wants to be relleved from the solution of the horrible problem of paying $15 a month alimony with $10 income from his wages as a baker's apprentice. ‘Another installment in the history of the Millington family troubles was filed today, when Charles filed s answer to Katherine's charges. He enters into particulars with the fullness that comes only with the realization that ho has at last cornered some one to tell all about them. He wants a divorce and says his wife has called him vile names, used awfui swear words In the presence of his neighbors and friends, threatened to end his existence either by poison, shooting or other means, beaten him with various house- hold ornaments and utensils, scratched his face, refused to cook for him, and finally left him. Ho wants his children, and claims that every time he went to see them at his father-in-law’s house, where they are now staying, she ordered him away and her father threatened to do great bodily Injury it he ever came back. He says his wite's father is not a fit person to care for them, neither is the mother, but he himself has pecullar qualifications in that line. LINCOLN LOCALS. The somewhat sensational case recently be- gun by some stockholders of the Lincoln business block against C.T. Boggs and R. J. Greene, in which the defendants were charged with-euchreing the plaintiffs out of the Halter block, was dismissed because the plaintifts failed to put up security for costs. County Attorney Woodward this morning Qismissed the oases against John Nelson, bound over for perjury, and Phil Miller, held on the charge of robbing J. D. Parker of a gold watch. Nelson was accused of swearing to an aMidavit in a case in justice court in which he was interested, that he couldn't got a material witness under thirty days and of having taken advantage of that to get his property beyond his creditors' reach. The West Side Improvement association, which recently obtained a judgment for $2,761 against J. W. Masters, tells the district court that he has transferred his property to his wito to defraud creditors, and asks that the transfer be cancelled. The Lottridge estate case is still on in probate court, where vigorous objections are being made o the approval of certain cash items in Administrator Kendall's accounts which are mnot ompanied by signed vouchers. o5 T Lushton store Robbed.

PLATTSMOUTH, Dec. 8.—(Special Tele- gram.)—The deadlock over the appointment of some one to flll the vacant seat on the Cass County Board of Commissiogers caused by the recent death of Chairman Dutton was broken today and resulted in the selection of Hon. J. M. Patterson, a democrat. One hundred and twenty-eight ballots were taken yesterday by the appointing board, but at today's session the selection was made on the second ballot. The Plattsmouth Weekly Herald, one of the oldest republican organs in the state, is now a thing of the past. Messrs. Blanchard and Potter, the publishers, disposed of ~the plant to the proprietors of the News and the transfer was made last night. The sale promises a.sharp legal contest between Blanchard & Potter and A. B. Knotts, the former owner of the Herald, who holds a chattel mortgage on the plant, the transfer being made without his consent. d in a Mine Explosion, INDIANOLA, Neb., Dec. 8.—(Special Tele- gram)—Willis Gossard was summonad to Colorado Springs last evening by the death of ‘his brother, Walker, who was killed in a mine explosion at Cripple Creek.

The Merriok County Editor Discusses tho Recent Uttoraneo of the Tattoood Man. SILVER CREEK, Neb, Dec. 8.—To the Editor of The Bze: In his letter to Chairman Morrill opposing a contest, Thomas J. Majors assumes a grandiloquent air of disinterested loyalty to party, which, in view off some re- cent events, is quite refreshing. To read his letter an unsophisticated person would nat- urally suppose that he was one of the most pure-minded of men, and, if such a thing were possible, a guileless politiclan who would scorn to take an unfair advantage or in any way profit by underhanded or irregular work. He says: “For thirty-five years I have affili- ated with a political party which advocates a free ballot and a fair count, and now neither I nor any of my friends will undertake any proceedings that may even have the appear- ancé of violating that exalted principle of the republican party. *i4 * I was fairly nominated; 1 made a fair can- vass for the election, and now submit cheer- fully to the apparent-will of the majority as shown by the officigl geturns, as I have al- ways done and as every good republican should do."" f It Mr. Majors is &, much in favor of a freo ballot and a falr cdunt, why did we not hear something of It at the Omaha conven- tion at the timé -of his nomination? that convention “there was doubtless a fair count, but there was not a free bal« lot, and Mr. Majors knows it. When he says he was fairly nominated he says what he knows and what evpry, man present at that convention knows Is ‘mot true. If he was fairly nominated 1 canngt very well concelve of circumstancss under which it c>uld properly bo sald of & [undld:{v that he was not fairly nominated. A nomfnation to be fair must not only be the work of a convention fairly constituted, but of a convention in which each individual delegate has due recognition and 3| perfect freedom of mction, subject to the well established usages of parllamentary law gov- erning such assemblies. As to whether undue influences were in any cases brought to bear on county conventions in the Interest of Mr a|Majors, I will not here consider further than to say that from such information as I have, fully believe that it the B. & M. rallroad had kept out of the preliminary campalgu— and they had no business In it—he would never have been nominated at all. As to the organization of the convention, it was a cut- and-dried affair, put up In the interest of Ma- jors, the delegates themselves having prac- ticaily nothing to do with it. The chalrman of the convention was elected by the central committee—s proceeding entirely unwarrantable, except on the theory that the convention could not be trusted to govern —a itself—primarily for the very purpose of manipulating the work of the convention in the interest of Majors. The fact that the MacColl men may have entered into the con- test before the state central committee, cuts no figure and constitutes no defense. Neither is it any defense to say that the committee named the chairman at the convention of last year, or that the same thing is sometimes done in other states. I insist that a state convention should always be permitted to name its presiding officer, and I trust that in future republican conventions in this state, that plan will be religiously adhered to. It is better than trying to force men to support a ticket they were denied a frea hand in nom- inating. But let us drop further considera- tion of these preliminary matters and come to the actual work of the Omaha conventlon. All present will remember the motion that was duly made and carried to take an in- formal ballot on governor. The result of that ballot made it apparent that Majors would be nominated on the first formal bal- lot if one were taken immediately. At this point a member of the Douglas county dele- gation made a motion to adjourn, presumably in the interest of MacColl. This motion re- ceived many seconds, and was heard by every one in the convention. But the chairman, who was a Majors man, arbitrarily and per- sistently refused to recognize the gentleman trom Douglas, and instead, as arbitrarily or- dered a formal ballot on governor, for which act he had no authority from the convention, either direct or implied. Al this was done in spite of violent protests from all over the house. The convention was in a tumult for some minutes and the chairman was utterly powerless to enforce order. The roll call finally proceeded and Thomas J. Majors was nominated. But what was Thomas J. Majors doing during that violent scene? I sat fac- ing him, and within ten feet of him. While the uproar was at its height, a gentleman near me, speaking of Majors, sald: ‘“He has his eye on this thing.” Glancing toward Majors, I saw him beckoning the secretary and pointing to where the Banner county delegation was seated, so that he could get their vote, which he had been prevented from doing by reason of the confusion. I heard some one say Banner county was to change to Majors. Now, after that bulldoz- ing, arbitrary work has been carried to its legitimate end, I may say, happy conclusion, and Majors is defeated, he has the infinite gall to say in his letter to Chairman Morrill “I would not under any consideration be gov- ernor of the state of Nebraska under circum- stances that would warrant any honest man in even holding a suspicion that there was the least question In regard to my title to the honorable position.” Why was he not equally solicitous as to his nomination? Why did he not then say while, owing to he arbitrary work of the chair, the convention was virtually a howling mob of angry men, “Mr, Chairman, I think the motion to adjourn was in order and should be put. 1 do not want this nomination ‘un- der circumstances that would warrant any honest man in even holding a suspicion that there was the least question in regard to my title to the honorable position.'" But, no! Mr. Majors was not there for any such pur- pose. The mill had been bullt to grind, and he actively assisted it In forcing on the re- publicans of this state a distasteful nomina. ton. I trust he is as well satisfied with the outcome as he professes to be, and that not only he, but all other professional politicians are also satisfied that hereafter it will be best to let the men who do the voting have some- thing to say about the nominations, CHARLES WOOSTER. L Bought Bonds with Money. SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 8.—There has been much speculation as to what became of the $1,600,000 for which Claus Spreckels drew his check on the Nevada bank in favor of the Bank of California. Assistant United States Treasurer Berry today declared that the talk about Spreckels buying the beet sugar plant at Chino and the 1,000 acres of land surrounding it was all nonsense. The $1,500,000 for which Spreckels drew his check, Berry states, was paid into the subtreasury here In gold between November 27 and De- cember 8 for the account of Drexel, Morgan & Co. This sum, with $63,00 paid in by the jon & San Francisco bank, was San Francisco's contribution to the syndicate which recently purchased the big issue of United States bonds.
