It was chloroformed by a political
pirate. No shame attaches to Keith
Neville in the death of the Seventh
regiment. He gave it all the ardor
that a loving heart and a patriotic de
sirc.could bring to bear. But all his
efforts availed not. Thc power of a
dread messenger from an evil corner
of tradition's most evil political hell
was superior to our young governor's
sincere love of country and his sin
cere Jesire to do his part in the de
fense of the flag."
People in Lincoln are wondering
who the "political pirate" is who
Governor Howard charges is respon
sible for the condition which brought
the "dread messenger from an evil
corner of tradition's most evil politi
cal hell." Some believe that they can
guess correctly the first time trying
and that he refers to a certajp senator
from the banks jf the Missouri along
the eastern border of Nebraska, and
that it all indicates that .Mr. Howard
feels that he has "shuddered" just
about as long as he can "shudder"
without shaking off something which
will be interesting and that from now
on "every little shudder will have a
meaning all its own.''
As the string which was hitched to
the governor's resignation gradually
tightens as the resignation is appar
ently being pulled back, it is no won
der that the Columbus editor, who
had the gubernatorial job almost
within his grasp, sees political pirates
, and visions of political hell swarming
around with a prospect of long con
tinued "shuddering."
McFarland Draws Generous
Fee From Callahan Estate
(From a SHaff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, Dec. 16. (Special.) After
long, long, waiting, Attorney J. M.
McFarland of Omaha, will receive
a nice little attorney fee of $6,000
trom the estate of James Callahan.
Thc case is' interesting from the
fact that Callahan was one of the
men accused many years ago of
complicity in the kidnapping of Fid-
ward Ludahy, young son of the South
Omaha packer. McFarland was at
torney for Callahan .and was suc
cessful in having him acquitted, not
only on the abduction charge, but
also on a charge of perjury growing
out of the first trial.
Callahan had promised the attor
ney that he would pay him from his
share in his father's estate. The
father was alive at the time, dying
later, as also did the son.
The administrator of the estate
made several defenses, one of which
was that as the agreement was not in
writing and related to real estate, it
came within the statute of fraud.
The supreme court in its opinion
favorable to McFarland, says that thc
agreement merely fixed the time of
payment and does not fall within thc
statute cited.
