TRAINING SCHOOL CASE.
It Will Ho Decided nt the Opening ot the
September Term.
The question of the legality ot the teach
ers' training school will not bo tried In the
district court at this term. Instead , It will
pass over to the convening of court In Septem-
bsr , when It will be one of the very first
cases taken up and passed upon. Frederick
D. Lowe , who brought the Injunction to test
the legality of the action ot the Board of
Education In maintaining a training school ,
lias authorized his attorney to carry the
case over until thn ,
The attorney.who appears In the case said ;
"The suit Is one against the city that Is ,
against the Board of Education and Its offi
cers and comes under the statutory class
of cases which are directed to be placed at
the head of the docket. There Is really no
occasion for the Issuance ot a temporary
Injunction , as the court only does that In
cases wherein thsre la some special danger ,
but as nothing can be done until next fall
In the way ot continuing the school , we can
have the case Just as well decided then. "
"Purely a question of law will bo pre-
cented to the court. The statute provides
for the powers of the Board of Education ,
which In cities of a metropolitan class has no
more authority to conduct a training school
than to operate a medical or other school
where special instruction Is given. Mr.
Ooudy , state superintendent , has rendered
such an opinion , and Mr. Powell , the attor
ney tor the board , has filed Ms written
eplnlon to that effect. There Is no question
s to whether It Is a good or a bad thing.
Of course the opponents cay that It Is a bad
thing because It cat * up about $7,000 of the
people' * money annually , but we will simply
ask the court to declare the action ot the
board Illegal and restrain the members from
cqntlnulns the contract or paying money
out. " -
B. P. Thomas of the Board of Education
tald he had not examined the pleading * , and
did not know th condition they were In ,
but was of the opinion that the board would.
If'the case went adversely , file a bond and
pptal.

TALKED OF GOLD AND SILVER.
Illmetnlllc Lcncuo Meets and Dlacmses the
Alonry Qurntlon.
The Republican Bimetallic league was ad
dressed Friday evening by D. D. Gregory , Its
president. Mr. Gregory began by describing
the enormous potential power ot this coun
try as compared with England , Germany and
France and quoted Mulhall as authority for
the statement that the potential power of
America In labor , commerce and manufac
tories exceeded the combined power of these
three countries. Ho said that there were com
paratively few who would not want bimetal
lism If other nations would Join the United
States. He stated that the government had been
Invited by Great Britain to change Its double
standard to a single standard. He recalled
having taken the stump In 1874 to discuss
the question ot whether the United States
should have a single or a double standard ,
as it was then a vital political question. He
favored the Bland law and urged that the
enemies ot this law had Invoked the aid of
"Gresham's law" by uniformly misstating It.
Grcslmm's position , he said , simply meant
that the poorer metal would be driven out
of a country when the demand for money as
a metal had been met , but so long as It re
mained more valuable as money than as a
metal It would stay In the country. The
speaker , traced the disparity In gold and
silver to the manipulations of Wall street ,
stating that a syndicate had been deprisslng
the price of silver la New York for twelve
years , each sale to the government being
lower than Its predecessor. Thus the price
for the world's market was set and advantage
could be taken of the price of sliver to real
ize on exchanges In the eastern trade.
PLEA FOll T///T UULOHED JT.i.V.
OMAHA , July C. To the Editor ot The
Bee : The colored man upon applying for
work at the various mercantile and Indus
trial enterprises of this city Is In most cases
refused work for the reason that ho Is a
colored man. At others ho Is put off with
one excuse or another , but the fact Is , be
cause be has a black face. Now , why Is
this ? Does the fact that the man has a
black face make him incompetent to do the
work to which ho Is assigned , or that he will
not do the work as good as one with a white
skin. The colored man has to live as well
as his white brother , and to do to ho haste
to work for a subsistence. Most of
the largo enterprises will employ any one
with a white kln regardless of his national
ity , but draw the line when a colored man
appears. One large enterprise opened up
some time ago which employs a large num
ber of men. Among those employed were
Bohemians , Swedes , Germans , Irish , English ,
Danes and , In fact , representative ! of al
most every European nation. 1 made applica
tion for work at the time In person , but wai
refused because I am a colored man and I
have found It so In several Instances.
A large number ot the foreigners who get
employment In preference 10 the colored
man are not even naturalized citizens nor
have any Intention of becoming such , but
save their earnings and carry them back to
foreign countries. The colored man , on the
other hand. Is In almost all cases a native
American , He makes his money hero and
spends It here and It eventually returns to
the source from which it came. We are
taught that all nations of the earth are of
one flesh. Why discriminate against one
particular race then ? The co'ored man Is
ready and willing to work and will give
good , faithful honest work to those -who will
give him employment , All he wants Is an
equal footing with other nations aqd he will
perform his duty Just as good , cheerfully and
as promptly a * others. Give the colored man
work and you will find : that be It Just a *
faithful to h.ls empbjer as any other nation
on earth. JOHN. L. STACKER.

Not since the World's Columbian exposi

through Omaha us In the last two days , nest-
bound to attend the national meeting of the
teachers ot America.
It looked like old times yesterday morning
at the union depot , section after section of
western trains pulling Into the station , In
some cases allowing the occupants of the
sleepers time to see the city , while other
specials pulled on through to Denver - without
out allowing their passengers tlmo even to
look upon the beauties of the passenger sta
tion which has had such widespread adver
tising.
A special lett Omaha via the Hock Island
at 7 a. m. with ten-car1 ! , and Mr. Kennedy
was authority for the statement that Ills road

lowed by a special leaving at 6:30 : p. in.
The Hock Island received three sleepers
from the Milwaukee In the morning which
came to that road from the Lake Shore. No.

Sam Hutchliifon , general traveling paEMn-

on fast mall time. The members of this large
party under Mr. Hutchlnson s care are
teachers from Brooklyn , New Jersey , Phila
delphia and Plttsburg. The first section of
No. 3 came Into Council Blurts with 135 pas-
ssngers , the second with 2SO. Breakfast
was served at the transfer and J. E. Market's
employes broke the record for fast service ,
feeding 2C3 people In an hour and fifteen
minutes In a room mating eighty people at a

It Is also an occasion for fast time being
made , the New England delegation under the
direction of Prof. A. K. Wlnshlp of Boston ,
leaving Council Bluffs on the morning of
July 6 , arriving In Denver on the evening of
the same day , an hour behind schedule time ,
making up an hour between Omaha and
Denver , although the train was given to the
Union Pacific two hours late by the North
western. The run between Council B'uffs
and Denver was made In thirteen hours and
fifteen minutes , a distance of 571 miles.
The run from Council Bluffs to Noith PIntte ,
294 miles , was made In exactly seven hours ,
forty-two miles per hour actual running time ,

probably through somewhat different spcc-

genuine. Some of the girls arc sending let

CIWHUllILI
OMAHA , July C. To the Bailer of The
Bee : I see you have an article In this
morning's Bee relative to the Deaf ant
Dumb Institute here In Omaha and In orJer
that the public may know the truth abou
the matter , I write this letter and ask you
to publish It In your paper.
On July 3 , Mr. Russell , who Is chairman
of the Board of Public LamU apd Buildings
In connection with mytelf , visited the In
stitution for the purpose ot ascertaining the
condition of the building and the necessar }
repairs , with the view of reporting the same
to the board. Prior to this time Mr. Rus
sell had written the superintendent , In which
ho stated that the superintendent might fa
cure plans for the repairs and obtain bids for
material , but did not authorize the making
of any contracts for any purpose with any
parties. Up to this time there has been no
action taken whatsoever by the Board o
Public Lands and Buildings In relation to
making any repairs at the Institution.
Our visit was preparatory thereto ; but to
our utter surprise we found that Messrs
Lawrle & Fisher had furnished plans an.
contracts had been entered Ir.V through them
as we were Informed , for lumber , hardware
and tlnwaro and that the building had In
places the roof torn off and they haj con
templated putting In tin gutters next day
An examination showed that the cornice
upon which these gutters wcro to bo placec
waa largely decayed and entirely unfit to be
used without replacing. In such condition
the duty of Mr. Russell and myself vyai
plain and that was to stop such unauthorlzci
proceedings. The plans prepared by Messrs
Lawrlc & Fisher have never been eubmltte
to the board nor was any member ot h
board aware of the fact that such plans hat
been prepared until they were shown to Mr
Russell and myself at the Institution on th
3d. Mr. Macleod nor anyone else has bcn
appolnteJ superintendent ot the repairs. Mr
Russell and myaelf , after consulting over th
matter , directed Mr. Macleod to notify par
ties claiming contracts tlint the board hat
made no contracts nor had the board au
thorlzed any one elro to make contracts an :
gave him a letter of Instructions' , one o
which was to be delivered to the bookkeepe
at the Institute In the absence of Mr. Gil
lesple , the other for himself , that partle
might know lib authority. We deemeJ th !
' .necessary In order to prevent parties from
delivering material , when they had no con
tract.
The plans will have to be first submlttei
to the board and adopted by them and al
parties desiring to furnish material and male
Ing contracts relative to the making of re
palm will lia\o to submit their bids , I
writing , to the board , on or before the lOt
day of July , next , at which time the boar
will meet and act upon same.

The record of the Justices ot the peace for
) ouglai county 1 as been broken. A Mlllard
ustlco carried oft the honors In this direction ,
'or the first time In the history ot the county
10 commissioners , accorJIng to Commissioner
cnklns' statement , have been able to Induce
Justice to make his annual report on the
ondltlon of hla docket respecting uncollccted
tate fees remaining In his hands , and hence ,
ndcr the law , due Douglas county. A meet-
ng of the county board was held yesterday
fternoon , at which a report was received
rom Henry N. Link , stating that ho had
ent his check for $1 to the county treasurer
o pay the fee duo the state In the case of
lellcnbeck against the sheriff. Ills report
ovcred the entire past year. For some time
ho county clerk has bean sending out notices
o Justices In pursuance of steps taken by
10 commissioners to bring the Justices to
Ime , on the theory that It fees are retained
Ithout being paid over the offense Is pun-
sbablo under the statute. "This Is the first
ase , " Mr. Jenkins stated , but Intimated It
ould not bo the last.
A largo portion of the meeting was con-
umed In a discussion of whether or not the
ellnquent personal tax Index should be com-
Icted up to date. From tlmo to tlmo the
reasurer has been given additional help to
arry on the work. The time olloweJ these
mployes had expired and aeyer.il clerks made
bid to da the Job for $150. Jenkins pro-
rosed that the board take up the consldera-
on of the matter , which a week ago was
> laced In the hands of the finance commlt-
> e. A point of order was made by Stenberg
hat the committee , not having reported , the
oard haJ no authority over the affair. This
as overruled and soon a discussion of the
lerlts of the propssltlon to complete an In3ox
as precipitated. Jenkins maintained that It
as a question whether or not the board
ould complete what had teen under way
or months. Chairman Williams thought at
his time It was a needless expense and the
ounty should hedge on expenditures. Button
lalmcd that It would soon bring In a revenue ,
s thousands of dollars of such taxes cannot
ow bo collected. Stenberg cited the history
f an old Index , drawn up some years ago
nd then found veluela's. It was determines

vere filed , one by Fred Melcher and one by
n. Pelskn , making a total of J2.200. KnoX

ent Mrs. Prof. Edward Dworzak to the asy-
um , asserting that Douglas county must tear
the expense , she being a citizen of this
county.

light In the shape of a list for witness fees
which the state had to pay for the May term ,
mounting to fl.05S.GO ; for petit Jurors the
um needed Is J3.812.40. Talesmen cost $170
iddltlonal.
The Presbyterian seminary asked for a
cancellation of taxes upon the Ninth and
lamey street property , for which It pays $1
a year rental , the use of the building being
a matter of charity. The case of Creighton
Medical college against Hush was cited to
he board's attention to show that as an elu-
catlonal Institution It Is entitled to the relief
asked. The communication was referred.
The Oma'ia Fair .and Epe2d association filed
a request for a donation ot the discarded Pa
vilion creek brldgei w.hich has been replaced

street. It is proposed to use it in giving the
public access 4o the alfalfa palace and the Ir
rigation department of the fair.
A portion of the assessors' claims were al
ow ed. The total of the bills when submitted
will amount to about $1,000 In excess of last
year.
The resignation of Dr. George H. Blcknell
as hospital Interne * was referred to a commit-
cc , the commissioners taking some umbrage

The county Judge reported a balance of
fees In tno sum of $85.48 , after paying the
office expenses.
G. W. Shepherd and W. Grimes notified the
board that they would mandamus It If their
witness fees In a state case were not pJld
The board hesitate' , wishing to have a decl
slon handed down In the Hayes case on this

OMAHA , July C. To tlio Editor of The
lee There are middle-of-the-road popu-
Ists In Douglas county , and ( hero are mid-
dlo-of-tho-road populists. There are middle-
of-tbe-road populists In Douglas county
vbo , when It comes to electing men to the
state legislature to elect n United States
enator , or when It comes to electing a
representative to congress directly , stand
quarcly on the Omaba platform against
uslon or any other compromise of their
mrty'g principles. It Is this c ass of popu-
Ists who , nhen It comes to electing men
o county nnd city olllccs olTlccs to which
he planks In the Omaha platform do not
icrtnln stand squarely for the brst man
or the place , regardless ot the candidate's
lens on national and spiritual problems ,
t Is this class of populists who can con-
slstenly join a local citizens' reform move *
nont and who are to bo in the majority It
ho people's party Is not to exist In vain.
There are also middle-of-the-road popu *
Ists In Douglas county who , when It comes
o electing men to the state legislature to
elect a United States senator , or when It
comes to electing a rcptescntatlvo to con
gress directly , do not stand squarely on thb
) maha platform against fusion or any other
compromise of their party's principles , but
vho , through some sectarian or other elde
ssue calculated to divide the common peo-
ilo , vote for old party men to make our
n\\s. It Is this class ot populists who ,
Uien It comes to electing men to county
ind city olllccs ofllces to which the planks
n the Omaha platform do not pertain
stand , like the stumbling blockheads that
most of them are , squarely In the middle
of the road.
Some of those reformers , whoso treachery
o the cause of equal rights could not bo
nero thoroughly typified than In the bite of
a rattlesnake , have all at once been con-
Inccd that the good of the populist party
n Douglas county this fall demands that
a straight mlddlb-of-thc-road ticket bo
> laced In the Held. They ought to know ,
ind doubtless do know , that national par
ies and national Issues have just about as
nuch to do with municipal laws ns socle-
les for the prevention of cruelty to animals
lave to do with private warfare against
> cdhugs and fleas ; but that , apparently ,
makes no difference with them. It they
can Influence any Ignorant or prejudiced
oter to draw party lines nnd keep out of
he citizens' reform movement , thereby
playing Into the hands of the strongest
party In the field , which is the straight ru-
mbllcun party , now controlled by tbo A.
' . A's , why the presumption Is that they
vlll do so , of course.
As a populist who has been talking and
otlng the principles of tbo Omaba plat-
orm In this city ever since the people's
party was organized , the undersigned de
sires to make a public protest against the
lopullst machine In this county and city
> elng used to further the Interests of the
American Protective association , an organi
zation which is run In the Interest of repub-
lean ofllce seekers , and which , whatever Its
object may have originally been , or how
ever equitable Its pristine principles , has had
he effect of enlarging the religious preju
dices of men , creating Intred among nclghbo-a
and dividing the working people of the nation
n the Interest of the enthroned kings of
monopoly. WILLIS HUDSPKTH.

Judge Scott's demand on the sheriff that
ho accord Mrs. James 0. Ish special privi
leges , while at the same tlmo he refused to
allow her to go out on ball , has raised n
small-sized rumpus at the court house.
A week or so ago Ish was refused ball anil
remanded to jail to await trial on the charge
of murder. Soon after being committed Ish
was engaged for rome tlmo in the jail ofllco
In conference with attorneys. The fact
was reported to Scott that special privileges
were being granted to Ish. Scott Issued a
verbal order to the sherllf , Informing that
official how he wanted the jail run , "with
special privileges to none. " Inquiry was
made at the jail at the tlmo and a warm
aiis\vcr was returned that nobody was getting
any such privileges. Friday Mrs. IBI
was arraigned and applied for ball , basing
her claim largely upon the fact that she
had a one-year-old baby to ciro for. The
court made an order refusing ball , but call
ing the sheriff Into court , ho said he wanted
Mrs. Ish to have a special room In the front
part of the Jnll. Sheriff Drexcl made no fur
ther reply than that ho would look the matter
up. Mrs. Ish Is now In cell No. 3 , famous
ns the cell which accommodated Mrs. Llbblo
I3ecchler-Klng nnd Mrs. Uudlgcr.
"If the place wns good enough for those
women , why Is , It not good enough for Mrs.
lEh ? " a couithbuso ofllclal askod.
"While I have sympathy for the child , It
docs not have to remain In jail , as Mrs. Ish's
attorneys claim , for It can nnd docs cat the
potatoes nnd other food ns readily as any
child , and Its grandparents certainly are able
to take care of It. "
Inquiry nt the jail revealed the fact that
the front part of the Jail Is merely a dwell
ing house without other locks than those of
any residence , and without bars on the win
dow's. ' H Is the jailer's private dwelling.
Sheriff Drcxcl has not made his answer.
"Will cither ot the Ish murder cases be
tried this summer ? " County Attorney I3al-
drigo was asked yesterday. "They will
not , " ho answered. "I will leave the city
In a few days and the cases certainly will
not be taken up until September. " Ish was
asked as to whether he would demand a trial
before September. Ho replied that the mat
ter rested with his attorneys. Ills attorneys
have Intimated no deslro to take the case up
In the summer months. Regarding the
James Strlbllng affair. In which a judgment
was obtained by Strlbllng for a divorce , on
the ground that his wife had erred through
attentions from Ish , Ish claims that It was a
snap Judgment against him and that ho was
not aware of his name being used In the
case. _ _ _ _ _ _ i
Want * the Proceeding Stopped.
Isaac N. Watson has applied for nn In
junction against the Homo FIre Insurance
company on the ground that the company
foreclosed a mortgage on his property before
the legal day for taking a Judgment had
rolled around and a defense , which It was
Intended to advance , had been filed. Ho
asks to have further procedlngs stopped. A
master commissioner was Just about to sell
the property.
