A MOST REMARKABLE LETTER
Voting City Attorney tornUli Glvei Advice
on tlie Trcnuury Defalcation.
In the absence ot City Attorney Conncll ,
Acting City Attorney Cornish sent the follow-
ng letter to Mayor Bemli In response to a
equest for Information as to the courco pro-
crlbed by law for the mayor In the emer
gency presented by the Ilolln defalcation :
OMAHA , Juno 27 , 1893. Gerge P. Bern's ,
layer , City : Dear Sir In response to request
or Information as to ycur legal duty In
ho matter of Henry Bolln , city treasurer ,
icrmlt me to state :
Section 99 of the charter provides that the
reasurer shall keep all money In his hanJs
belonging to the city or school district sep
arate and distinct from his own moneys , and
irohlblts him from using any euch mcney or
any warrants or other te.uritl's In hh cus-
ody or receiving any Interest thereon lor his
own use or benefit , and provides further that
any violation of said provision thill subjjct
Bald treasurer to Immediate removal from
cfilcc by the city council , which Is authorized
o declare such ofilce vacant , and the miyor
hereafter , with the consent of the city coun
cil , shall appoint a successor. By this pro
vision the city council alone can declare an
office vacant.
Uy section 172 of the charter power to re
move any office holder from office for good
and sufficient cause Is conferred upon the dls-
trlct court. In such case the mayor must
make and file with the clerk ot said court
proper charges and specifications against the
: fficer sought to bo removed , alleging that
ho Is guilty of malfeasance or mlsfcsanco In
such office , or that he Is Incompetent or neg-
ects his duties , or that for any other good
and sufficient cause stated ho shall bo re
moved from his office. On the filing of such
charges a writ Is Issue ; ] out of eald court , re-
.urnablo not more than ten days after the
service thereof , and If good and sufficient
reason Is shown the court will remove such
officer from his said office. During the pen
dency of such proceedings the court may by
order suspend the officer from the duties of
ils office.
Mr. Bolln has rendered unnecessary any
such proceedings by tendering his resignation ,
which has been accepted by the council.
Until a successor Is appointed , confirmed and
qualified , Mr. Dolin and his bondsmen will
jo liable for the custody and eafo keeping of
; he city's money. Any talk In .the press or
upon the streets to the effect that the bonds
men of Mr. Bolln are released from all fur-
: her liability on their bend from the tlmo
Mr. Bolln tendered his resignation and it was
accepted Is Ill-advised and not the law.
Permit me to state further that powers
conferred upon a mayor and penalties pro
vided by law are Intended to subserve a use
ful purpose and not as a means of persecu
tion. That Mr. Bolln has violated the law
s beyond question. That the law ought to
je rigidly enforced by n city treasurer Is also
beyond question. It should also be remem
bered that Mr. Bolln has lived In this city
for thirty years ; that up to two months ago
no man had a better reputation for Integrity
than he , and no official had a better record
In the performance of his official duties than
Mr. Bolln. If a reputation I ? to avail any
thing , It ought to be In circumstances like the
present. Now , he has lost his reputation , his
record In office during several terms past Is
sullied , his property Is all turned over to his
tiondrmen , his means of livelihood are sud
denly cut off , and his sufferings arc such as
but few endure. To attempt further punish
ment would look more like persecution than
the performance of a duty.
During your term of office you have estab
lished a reputation of hewing close to the
line of right regardless of political machina
tion , and therefore , of all men , you should
endeavor to disregard the harangue In the
city council and the paragraphs In the news > -
papers , all of which are so evidently Intended
to work up sentiment favorable to various
political movements this coining fall. To
you , fair-minded as you are , the misfortunes
of one man are not to be used to achieve
selfish political ends ot others. In the caw
of Henry Bolin there are a number of ex
tenuating circumstances. There Is no evi
dence thus far that any record has been
mutilated or falsified In the least. The
shortage ot that office appeared In the first
hour of the Investigation the same as after
a thorough and complete Investigation. There
was no attempt to cover or hide a single act.
Had Mr. Bolln Intended to bteal there would
have been attempts to cover and conceal , all
of which are locking In this case. Had such
been his Intention there Is no reason why his
shortage should not have gone up Into the
hundreds ot thousands Instead of as It is.
It Is now evident that not only the city will
not lose a dollar , but even Mr. nolln's bonds
men are not likely to lose a dollar In this
matter.
The newspaper reports to the contrary
notwithstanding , I have never received an ad
vancement on my salary , but It was simply
because I never needed It. Had I been In
need of a temporary advancement on my
salary , which would be due the following
month. Henry Bolln could have accomodatcd
me without the least danger of loss to any
person , because my salary would be forth
coming to pay the debt , and In this , he would
have but followed a custom that has been In
vogue as long as the oldest office holder
can remember In this city. This cuttom Is
wrong In a business line , and I believe It
fortunate for the city that the present pub
licity given to It will stop It In the future.
Prior to Mr. Dolln's administration the law
was just as severe against the city treasurer
using the money of the city to make a profit
to himself thereby as at present. Yet In the
previous election , wherein John Rush am
Mr. McShane were contestants , when thi
salary of this ofilce was only $1,400 , we hoc
the most spirited city election 03 between
those two contestants that wo have ever
had. Both of them were as honorable men
as could be found In the city of Omaha
both ot them gentlemen capable if com-
mandlng high salaries and making large
money In the usual business , and yet In
all probability the campaign expenses o
either ot the parties amounted to more than
their salary , and the contest was 1'ioked upor
by people of this city as a bank fight lathei
than a polltlclal contest. Every person whc
knew anything , knew that the city treasure !
who was elected would loan the city's monej
to the banks and would himself obtain the
Interest thereon. Because It was known tha
every treasurer In the state was doing tht
same thing , the law was changed allowlnp
money to bo loaned by the city direct In
stead of giving this emolument to the office
holder. Supposing under the old regime c
bank failed , the treasurer would have beet
an embezzler ; but are we going to condemr
all of the honorable men who have held office
as treasurer in this state ? What Is tht
difference between their offense and the of
tense of Mr. Bolln ? Simply they hav <
loaned money to parties ( banks ) who repali
the money. Therefore the city lost no monej
In those cases. But the city loses no monej
In this case and the violation ot the IAV\
Is no greater. When Alexander Hamlltor
was killed , Aaron Burr became an outcast
and the formerly honorable custom of dueling
ceased to be honorable in this country. Tin
prcbcnt disclosure will cam a stain upor
Mr. Bolln's reputation for all time to come
It Is to bo hoped that these Illegal methods
which have been In vogue will cease. W (
do not condemn Alexander Hamilton be
cause dueling was such an established CUB ,
torn that to refuse to engage therein would
In his opinion , have brought dishonor upot
him. Should Henry Bolln be so serlousl )
condemned for doing that which had beer
customary before him , when every act o
his since the disclosure has been of an honor
able man , as ho was always thought to bl
before that time ? The city loses no monej
and Is a gainer In having an obnoxloui
custom terminated henceforth.
" In my opinion you ought not to be a part ;
to a scheme to make political capital ou
of the misfortune of a poor man. Your duly
In my opinion , Is to appoint a treasurer ti
succeed Bolln. It not confirmed , to appoln
another. You are responsible for the char
acter of your appointees , the city council to
their acts In confirming or rejecting. Ver '
reupcctfully , n. J. CORNISH ,
Assistant City Attorney.

AMONG GERMAN SOCIETIES.
( ranch of tliD llnrngnrl Order Established
1'lcnlct the Fmhlon.
Some days ago a new fraternal order was
ntroduced Into this city , called the German
rder of the Harugarl. This society has quite
a membership , mostly In the eastern states.
Up till now Chicago was the terminus of the
order's work In the west. Some prominent
lermans of Omaha , knowing what good the
larugarl order hag done during the long
'ears of Its existence , made preparations to
lave also a branch In this city and Induced
ho grand treasurer of the order , Mr. Philip
Kochler , who resides In the Windy City , to
como hero and start the good work , which
was done. "Omaha lodge of the
German Order ot the Harugarl No. 629"
sprang Into existence with about forty mem
bers. The following officers were elected :
O. B. , Charles Krelle ; U. B. , Charles King ;
secretary , Emll Tchan ; treasurer , Fritz
Krelle ; states-deputy , Gottlieb Kern. The

man ) Tcutonla lodge , Order of the World.
There Is a society In the north of the
city , called Vcreln Gemuethllchkelt , which Is
ilghly estimated for the excellent ar
rangements of all Its entertainments.
Prominent people of the north s'de are In
the management of that society , among
them Messrs. Storz , Bauer , Schukcrt and
others. The vereln has Thide arrangements
for a picnic , to bo held Sunday , July 7 , on
the farm of Mr. Hccli. near the city limits.

Trinity School's lHotilo rrocoilod by Trl-
UtnphnnOiTbar by Motor.
When the Sundar < * ohool of Trinity Metho
dist church went on ! UP annual picnic yester
day afternoon the'pupils ; ' and teachers en-
loyed one pleasure'norcr before had on such
an occasion , at least In this part of the
country. That was being hauled to their
destination by the power of onn of the strong
est electric currents-that hns ever moved the
wheels of a motor In Omaha. For a year
the Council Bluffs- bridge line has had on
trial one of the mammoth motors being
turned out by an eastern company , and while
the motor has given perfect satisfaction , It
was determined to put It to the supreme test.
It , therefore , headed the train of six open
cars , brought from over the river , to carry
the school to the Driving park. The load
was taken on In the northern part of the
city. The whole train was abundantly de
corated with flags , fully fifty piss-angers were
in each car , nil the boys , and many of the
girls , had tin horns , and as the train came
down Sixteenth street , many of the people
believed at first that they had forgotten to
watch the bill potter and that a circus had
come to town without their knowledge.
The streets were lined by people watching
tbo passage of the happy throng , and the
pretty spectacle. The big motor failed along
with Us unwonted burden , seeming Itself to
share the pride In Us achievement manifested
by Manager Dlmmock , of the bridge llns , and
Agent Henry of the manufacturing company ,
and Motorman Lovett , who was at the helm.
The ascent of the 4 per cent grade from
DougUs to Farnam street was watched with
much Interest , and a trifle of anxiety , for the
sight of a reserve motor , not far behind the
train , showed that therewae some suspicion
on the part of the officials that the- big ma
chine might weaken on going up the hill.
But there was no need of the reserve , for
the train proceeded without slacking speed.
On the level between the river and Council
Bluffs the speed of the motor , with so heavy
a load was tested , and so satisfactory was
the trial that many were ready to admit that
the era ot general electric railways was at
hand , the speed made being twenty miles on
hour.

The next regular meeting of the Board of
Education , which occurs Monday night , Is
the date lor the election of n secretary , a
superintendent of buildings and a custodian
ot supplies for the coming year. Unless
present Indications fall the election will not
be had without a fight. A number of anx
ious candidates are making life a burden for
some of the members who are understood to
bo somewhat undecided as to their choice.
So fur as the secretaryship Is concerned ,
there seems to bo no particular opposition
to the re-election of Secretary Olllnti , and
he will probably obtain another lease ot life
without opposition.
A determined effort Is being made to
lown Superintendent of Dulldlngs Danker.
Janker was electnd last year after a long
and doubtful struggle , In which honors were
easy between three or four candidates for
a number of ballots. At that tlmo William
J. Stevens came within one vote of being
elected. Stevens was encouraged by his
narrow escape and Is again a very likely
candidate. Ills friends claim that ho will
run very close and will win out , unless
Danker should be elected on the flrst ballot.
Sam MacLeod's Insatiable ambition to get
a place at the public crib has again got the
jettcr of his udgmcnt , and he Is making n
canvass for votes which is moro notable for
perseverance than success. If ho has a
single vote In the board It Is not In evidence ,
yet he Is plugging away as Industriously as
: hough ho had a majority on the first ballot.
Charles I ) . Southard U after the position
of custodian , it"'v held by Edward Schoon-
ovcr. Southard was also a candidate for
Guy Donne's place as secretary of the Hoard
of I'ark Commissioners , but failed to make
connections , and is now looking for the nc\t
best thing In sight. Southard's candidacy Is
backed by a portion of the same clement
that wanted to retire Miss Arnold and Miss
Evans at the recent election , and also by
some of the coal dealers , who are not alto
gether pleased with Mr. Schoonover's atti
tude toward their Interests. It Is stated
that Mr. Schoonover 1ms held the dealers to
the ttrict Interpretation of the rules ot the
board , and that this has not tended to In
crease his popularity with them.
Wh'le the opposition to Schoonover and
Danker has developed considerable strength ,
the conservative members of the board are
of the opinion that they will both be re-
elected. _

Chancellor Mcl.oati on tlio Nw I'lnu ot the
btntn Unlvurilty ,
Chancellor McLean of the State university ,
who came up from Lincoln with the gov
ernor's party to attend the banquet tendered
the chief executive Friday evening * , declared
himself as confident that the plan decided on
for abolishing the prcpuatory department of
the Institution would work well.
The first of the two sub-freshman years
has already been dropped , but tt Is proposed
not to relinquish the work of the second ot
these years fully before the spring of 1897.
Full work will bo done during the next
school year , BO ns to carry the present
students forward as heretofore to the en
trance of the college course proper , but the
next year In only half ot the studies will
Instruction bo given , It-being expected that
the high schools will by that tlmo have
changed their courses so as to Include the
other half , and this division was decided on
for the express purpose of making It moro
easy for the high schools to conform to the
ultimate scheme.
The chancellor says that the change will
not lower the standard of admission to the
university , nor , indeed , modify it materially ,
but will require more advanced work In
such high schools In the state which will
be a majority of them as do not now pre
pare fully for the freshman year. It Is an
attempt to solve the problem , already solved
In many contiguous states , of bringing the
high schools and academies generally and
the stale university Into harmony , so that
the university Is the next step from all
preparatory schools nnd the head In proper
course of the school system of the state.
Generally the fears of friends of Institu
tions of this character that the abolishment -
ment of preparatory courses will result In
decreased attendance and In matriculates not
so well qualified have proved groundless and
Chancellor McLean Is sure they will prove
so In this case , the university being left
free to do what Is recognized as the proper
work of a university , and the standard of
the preparatory schools being raised nnd
made uniform.
Asked his sentiment respecting the estab
lishment of a department of agriculture and
of mechanic arts In the university , the
chancellor said that ho favored the general
Idea , but would not be ready for some time
to make specific suggestions. He attaches
much importance to the kind of Instruction
contemplated , believing It to bo extremely
desirable , especially In agricultural states ,
nnd that It could be much more economically
and effectively furnished as a part of the
work of the university than In an Institu
tion separately and exclusively maintained
for IU
Chancellor McLean has been at Lincoln
for a week hard at work , though his otllclal
term does not begin until July 1. Ho went
to Minneapolis yetterday morning to "uproot , "
as ho expressed It , and will probably go to
Denver after that to represent the State uni
versity In the national conference of college
presidents.
