very refined and her comedy work
is entirely devoid of coarseness,
which is far too often considered
an adequate substitute for ability.

CAPITAL CITY LETTER.
Lincoln, Dec. 10, 1900.
There is a general hope that the
republican caucus will be held and
the senatorial fight disposed of be
fore the 15th of January, the time
tor the joint session, in order that
ncccBBary legislation may not be re
tarded, So far as the state in general is
concerned, there is no great demand
for legislation at the hands of the
coming session. The need of anew
revenue law is recognized, but the
difliculty of passing one is also rec
ognized. Attempts along this line
in the two last sessions failed.
Two years ago the fusionist olli
cials, although all elected or
appointed on a platform demanding

iBlature and asked for increases.
Under their strenuous repieseuta
tions many of the state-house dcpir
ties received larger salaries than
had eycr before been paid. The in
coming republicans will reap tin
benefit of this example, but n
doubt they will be criticised by Hit
fusionists for desiring to keep tin
salaries at their present figure.
It !h conceded that Hub move it
quite a. proper one. They will fee
at home. Nearly every one of tlu
whole crowd of leaders lived soutl
ot Mason and Dixon's line befon
they came here to "reform" Nebras

ney-general will inherit a number
of buncome law-suits against starch
factories and other institutions, and
it is not beyond the possibilities
that the Smythes and Oldhams will
ask to be allowed to nibble at the
public crib until these suits are dis
posed of. A long-haired attorney-
general who has maintained a pri
vate office in Omaha and allowed the
state to shift for itself except dur
ing political campaigns, may de
clare himself indispcnsible in tliu
settlement of these campaign, law
suits. The new attorney-general,
however, may decide that an cx-olli-cial
who uses hair, oil externally,
and an ex-deputy who uses it inter
nally will be of little assistance in
these suits.
-The pretended contest against
Dietrich to prevent him from taking
hi Beat has fizzled out. The tun
ionists knew that the case was
a hopeless one, and besides the dis
appearance of certain of their cam
paign funds has giyen them trou
bles of their own. There is a well
grounded suspicion that high
mogt'ls of the fusion crowd used up
the funds to bet on the election.
Now, while they accuse each other,
the legitimate expeiir.es remain un
paid. It is believed that this inter
nal quarrel has only just I'cgun
and that beforu the colony leaven
for Oklahoma there may be some
startling developments. Under the
circumstances the reform leaders
will go pretty slow about i heir con
test, and will sing low the nong'of
the use and abuse of campaign
hinds.
Governor Dietrich seems to be
iroing about the makitig of his ap
tude. and that it la too hard Ionian

When he finds a mail in every way
qualified for a place he announces
the appointment. So far no criti
cism has been heard. At least two
ol the places given out by common
ousent. John Mallalieu as the
head of the Kearney school was an
unqualified success in the years
gone by, and tne desperate attempt
of the Mutz sniffling commit
tee to blacken his character three
years ago was a dismal failure. It
was conceded that Mallalieu was
the proper man for the old place.
Dr. Green, of University Place, for
the head ot the Lincoln asylum was
another expert whose qualifications
and claims were generally conceded.
In regard to the other appoint
ments so tar made qualifications
seem to have been the best indorse
ment. Adam Gkanokk.
