Claim Lafe Seeks Vengeance
C A Rodgers the court refporter
in question has also prepared an af
fidavit that is in the hands of the ju
diciary committee in which he states
that the bill of exceptions was de
layed because he was neither paid
nor tendered the lawful fees until
the time to prepare the bill of excep
tions before the expiration of forty
days after the dictum of the court
had passed Regarding the false sheet
of testimony he states that the judge
only caused it to be restored to its
original form after it had been mu
tilated by lead pencil and ink inter
polations made in a hand writing
closely lesembling that of Burnett
F L Wolff of McCook another at
torney interested in the various Wil
son cases has filed an affidavit de
fending Judge Orr Besides reciting
what Rodgers made affidavit to he
states on the affidavit of C Rey
nolds and Y W Tilden employed
in the office of the district court
that Burnett forcibly took the files in
these cases and made changes in
them He also says that Burnetts
complaint is filed solely by way of
revenge and to influence pending
litigation
L W Sta5ner who was a repor
ter in the court before Rodgers was
employed supports Rodgers state
ment that the delay in the prepara
tion of the bill of exceptions was
Burnetts fault for failure to pay the
fees Stayner also denies that Judge
Orr ever threatened Burnett with a
citation for contempt of court for
bringing an action in mandamus He
states that the judge did reprove
Burnett for stealing the files in the
case
The course of an impeachment is
elaborate and provides the accused
with every opportunity for defense
Should this matter be acted upon
by the judiciary committee a report
would be made to the senate Then
it would be necessary for both houses
of the legislature to pass upon the
specifications In the event that the
legislature deemed the matter to be
worth consideration it would so in
form the supreme court and testimony
in the case would be taken under the
direction of that court Lincoln dis

Nebraska is entitled to more pleas
ure than it is likely to feel in the
final enactment of a stock yards bill
turning the stock yards over to the
railroad commission This holds true
entirely aside from such direct bene
fit as it may have Except for the
brewers the stock yards have been
the most disturbing interest in Ne
braska legislation since the railroads
were turned over to the commission
four years ago The stock yards havs
been the nucleus of about every deal
attempted in the last two legislatures
Few measures have secured action
this winter without reference to the
stock yards To have this mischievous
spirit banished from the legislature is
worth a fortune to Nebraska Jour
nal
Governor Aldrich has signed H R
107 the anti trading stamp and anti
free gift enterprise bill which was
passed by both houses of the legis
lature The bill has no emergency
clause and will become effective threi
months after the legislature adjourns
The governor is said to doubt the
legality of the bill but he believes
it will be better for those interested
to test the bill in the courts of Ne
braska than to continually maintain
a lobby at the legislature The Ne
braska retailers association asked for
the passage of the bill and manufac
turers of prize packages trading
stamp companies had able lawyers
on the ground to combat the bill and
to question its constitutionality

Young Brides First Discovery
Their wedding tour had ended and
they entered their new home to settle
down to what they hoped to be one
long uninterrupted blissful honey
moon
But alas the young brides trouble
soon began when she tried to reduce
the cost of living with cheap big can
baking powders
She soon discovered that all she got
was a lot for her money and itwas I
leavening power Such powders will
not make light wholesome food And
because of the absence of leavening
gas it requires from two or three
times as much to raise cakes or bis
cuits as it does of Calumet Baking
powder
Thus eventually the actual cost to
you of cheap baking powder is
more than Calumet would be
Cheap baking powders often leave
the bread bleached and acid some
times yellow and alkaline and often
unpalatable They are not always of
uniform strength and quality
Now the bride buys Calumet the
perfectly wholesome baking powder
moderate in Iprice and always uni
form and reliable Calumet keeps in
definitely makes cooking easy and i
certainly the most economical after
all

AN ARGTIOjlESGUE
The Finding of the Survivors of
the Greely Expedition
STAYED THE HAND OF DEATH
The Seven Starved and Half Crazed
Dying Men Were Wearily Waiting
For the End When Came the Shout
That Told Them Relief Was Nigh
In his story of the rescue of the rem
nants of the ill fated Greely expedi
tion at Cape Sabine in 18S4 Frank B
Copley in the American Magazine
gives a dramatic description of the ac
tual finding of the starving survivors
On June 21 a furious gale blew down
the tent which the despairing men
had not the strength to raise again
On the 22d the gale continued and the
men felt that the end of their long
struggle had come
In the evening all the men were in
their bags waiting for death Greely
Frederick Blederick Elison and Con
nell were under the fallen canvas of
the tent Brainard and Long were
under the fallen canvas of the adjoin
ing shelter It remained light of
course the sun at this season being
continuously above the horizon Con
nell passed Into the unconscious state
which was the prelude of death The
other six men supremely indifferent
to everything lay idly dozing
But the evening still was young
when seemingly from a distance there
came a sound that forced itself upon
their attention Once came the sound
Twice came the sound Three times
came the sound Each time it was a
long insistent screech
At first it was annoying as any
sound Is that gradually forces one to
leave ones pleasant dreams and awake
But with the second repetition of the
screech Brainard and Long sat up and
looked at each other
From under the canvas of the tent
came the complaining voice of Greely
Brainard did you hear it
Yes sir
What was it
I think I am pretty sure that it
was the whistle of a steamer
There was something of a stir under
the fallen canvas of the tent
blck had aroused himself and seized
the bag containing their last bit of
brandy Two spoonfuls were left
Biederbick forced one down the throat
of the dying Connell If they actually
were going to be rescued Connell
should have a chance to live The
other spoonful of brandy Biederbick
offered to bis commander When Gree
ly declined it Biederbick sent it to fol
low the other spoonful down the throat
of Connell
Greely now asked Brainard and Long
if they could get out from under their
canvas and report if anything was to
be seen They said they felt able to
climb to the high rocky point on the
ridge where Brainard had set a signal
flag
Do your best said Greely
Slowly and painfully Brainard and
Long crawled up the narrow path in
the snow to the point which command
ed a broad view of the sea There
was much open water but nothing
was to be seen on It save the old
monotonous floes and bergs
Long said they must have been mis
taken in the nature of the sound they
had heard Brainard agreed After a
few minutes Brainard chilled through
said he would go back and report to
Greely Long who was more warmly
clad said he would stay up there a
while longer
When Brainard in reporting to Gree
ly again expressed the opinion that
they had been deceived the opinion
seemed to be accepted by all the men
under the tent Brainard crawled back
into his bag fully believing that he
never would leave it again and fully
resigned to the prospect
Presently Biederbick began to argue
that the fact that no ship was to be
seen from the point above them did
not necessarily indicate that they had
been deceived in believing that the
sounds they heard were those of a
ships whistle He suggested that the
ship might be in Payer harbor which
could not be seen from their ridge
Greely aroused himself sufficiently
to say that he did not consider this
probable Biederbick however went
on arguing in his persistent German
way that help was near At length
Greely whose nerves were a wreck
and whose mind was fast giving way
turned on Biederbick and cursed him
for making a disturbance
Shut up he ordered and let us
die in peace
So once more there was quiet
Lying outside In his bag Brainard
vaguely wondered If he ever again
would see Long
Presently lie heard footsteps
Some one was coming
It could not be Long
Whoever was coming was running
God he was running
Then came a shout the shout of a
hale and hearty man
Greely Greely Are ye thcrct
There was no mistaking the voice
with its Scotch Irish accent The
voice was that of James W Norman
Ice master on the Proteus when that
steamship transported the Greely ex
pedition to Lady Franklin bay three
years before
As Norman shouted two big ships of
the United States navy were anchor
ing just at the foot of the ridge
Seven men out of twenty five lived
until the evening of June 22 Another
hour and probably only sis would
have been found alive Two days
