CAMS COUNTY MAN 1NTERT1EWEP.
A Prominent Cass County Alliance
Man Goes to Nebraska City and
Is Interviewed. His Tale
of Woe. Otner Lo
cal News.
There was a Cass county politi
cian in town yesterday, who has
not a little to do in the inner circle
of the alliance movement. In the
courHe of hin conversation with
gentleman of well known reputa
tion he divulged Home lactH tha
are? of interest to all who are lipur
inir at all upon the result of the
coming- fight in this state. Asa
know, it is most certainly to be a
three-cornered contest. The alii
ance party perhaps played its best
card at the last election, and will
never poll as strong a vote again
The seeds of dissatisfaction from
which the party rew hare ripened
and Mowed themselves again, and
are bringing forth much the same
kind of fruit. Thus the parly is
broken into fractions that grov
onlv more inimical as the fight
comes nearer, and personal preju
dices grow more marked.
There is no doubt the railroads
will play a strong and active part
this summer in the councils of the
alliance party. There is no moie
likelihood of an alliance leader
taking up arni9 against a force that
will cclain'y overwhelm him than
there is of leaders of any other
party. The railroads will guard
their rights as t-crupulously as any
one else. This some alliance lead
ers see. and. while Ihlreling for
office, are very little inclined to
proclaim themselves so unreserv
edly as heretofore rabid auli
monopolists.
The gentleman mentioned above
is quoted as saying in the couree of
his digressions into the realm of
pol'tics:
"The o'd fight between Jayliur-
rows and C. II. Van Wyck promises
to be renewed this year with all the
bitterness of personal hatred. I
have it on good authority that Bur
rows is trying to persuade the dif
ferent leaders in the state that his
old opponent inlying up with the
railroad interests of the slate in or
der to secure his election in case he
be nominated on the alliance ticket
for governor. lie gives it out that
the ld man has promised the rail
road manages that he will not
continue his old taciics6f opposi
tion to rai! roads in case he is
. elected. This, Burrows goes on to
say, is a direct breach ,of the anii
rnonopoPetic policy of the alliance
pa'ly. ,
"Senator Van V3xk denies this
report most emphatically, yet he
does not disguise the fact that he is
being fiercely opposed by both
Burrows and Powers. He says he
. dtauds as firmly as ever on the ant!
raonopoly platform of the pany."
"It is a fact that Powers is making
a strong tight for the gubernatorial
candidacy. He is certainly work
ing hard to get the nominaLioa and
lias a good ally in Jay Burrows.
They are making a thorough can
vass of the state on the quiet and
will certainly present a formidable
front to the Van Wyck taction."

A WARM RECEPTION.

Ing sticks.
C. W. Sherman of the Plattsmouth
Journal, was a visitor in our city last
week, and a little circumstance that
happened while here is probably so
stamped upon his memory that he
will never forgel it. For full fifteen
minutes he was lreated to volley
after volley of the most sarcastic
language that an irate person could
utter and he then was allowed to go
and ruminate over the matter and
wipe the perspiration off that had
gathered on his brow during the
trying ordeal.
Mr. Sherman as usual, stopped a
the Gibbon house and after dinner
spying a cane in the office appro
priated the same and proceeded on
his way down the street The owner
of that cane, Mr. Perry, who is visit
ing relatives here, after dinner fail
ing to find his cane started out on
search. Well, he met Sherman and
the conversation thit passed be
tween them, though not printed in
full, was about as follows:
Mr. P. Do you make a practice o
carrying off other people's canes?
Mr. S. No sir. 1. 1
Mr. P. Did vou have a cane of
your own, sir?
Mr. S. No sir, I
Mr. P. I thought not, you look
like a man that would take anything
vou cou Id la v vour hands on. Where
do you live?
Mr. S. Plattsmouth.
Mr. P. I thought so, you look like
I imagine a person would who came
from there. Have you paid your
board?
Mr. S. No, but I've got the money
to pay it with.
Mr. P. I doubt it, and if you have
I question how you get it. Jt must
be after the manner you took pos
session of my cane.
Mr. S. O well, I have several
canes in my oflice that the boys use
and then return.
Mr. P. I suppose you procured
them the same as you did mine.
And in this manner did he score
him until Mr. Sherman looked as
thoniT-h he would like to crawl in a
hole and pull the hole in after him
z-
and when he did make his escape
he proceeded to settle his b'll at the
Gibbon, not as Le.-eiofore, by send
ing his paper, but he paid cash.

"The Witch."
The LouisvUe (Ky.) Courier
Journal, in speaking of the produc
tion of "The Wiich ' in that ci.y,
says:
"The Witch" was presented at
Macauley's Iheaier last night to a
fairly large audience, over whom
the play excited a strange and pow
erful charm. The play is certainly
a departure from the beaten paths,
and the authors in seeking for
original material discovered and
utilized it with skill, judgment and
taste. They bare put upon the
stage a page from the early history
of those narrow, intolerant, but
rugged, energetic and indomitable
people who settled New England
and established her etisloms in a
bold and vivid setting. The spec
tator is transported to the streets of
Salem, in the rude and simple
days when the stern usages of the
blue laws were in their vigor; when
a lass was put in the pillory for
kissing her sweetheart on Sunday;
when the common scold was doused
under the town pump; when the
sunshine of the heavens fomid no
reflection in the hearts of the men
and women, and before the black
and horrid hand of supersutton
had been lifted from the vigorous
but narrow undei standings of the
Puritans. The play catches the
color of the surroundings ana
draws the listener willingly or not
toward its denouement.. The cen
tral character, the accused witch, is
thoroughly human, and the story is
so well constructed as to raise an
eager interest in her fate. The im
personation of this role by Miss
Marie Hubert Frohman possesses a
singular charm. As the fragile,
pure and artless young girl, who
has been reared in the forest by
Father Ambrose, she inspires a
gentle and fender regard, which
subsequently quickens pity and
sympathy aad r;pens in;o warm af
fection.
