An tstnpnatic Denial.
Sunday's World-Herald insists that the
denial was not sufficiently emphatic, to
which the judge answers in the follow
ing unmistakable and unequivocal lan
guage:
Omaha, Oct., SO.—Q. M. Hitchcock,
Dear Sir: I notice by your editorial in
today’s World-Herald that you think my
denial of the charge of seduction is not
sufficiently specific. My own opinion
was that the necessary inference from
the facts stated by me amounted to a
denial quite as emphatic as if I had said
so in express terms. I wish now to say
in the most emphatic terms that I was
not guilty of the charge. That although
the grand jury is a secret body, and I
had no chance to defend myself and
made no attempt to do so, it was dis
missed, not on account of any technic
ality or favoritism for me, but because
the charge was not true and could not
be sustained by proof.
I was never expelled from the Masonic
lodge in Leon or elsewhere, and could
never have been reinstated had I been
expelled, for the reason stated by our
correspondent.
I believe I enjoy the respect of the
people .of Leon, where I lived for so
many years,and where I frequently go to
visit relatives. I am absolutely certain
the charge of twenty years ago would
never have been revived had I continued
to reside in Leon, where I have been
known since my boyhood.
I trust you will give the denial equal
prominence with the accusation. Re
spectfully vours, A. M. Post.
□ Mr. Fred Swinglev returned from liis
eastern trip Monday evening. The
Frontier's expectations in regard to
his matrimoninl conquest were not real
ized, and although several of his admir
ing friends had carriages at the depot
Sunday evening to convey the bridal
party to the city, they were disappoint
ed. No bridal party came, and Monday
evening Fred returned alone, being re
ceived with open arms by the Eagle

frightened at the thought of one of their
number being taken away.

A Letter to Republicans.
The following very excellent letter,
written by the chairman of the Repub
lican county central committee, has been
mailed to many Republicans throughout
the county, and in order to give it as
wide a circulation as possible, it is today
published in Tiik Frontier:
O'Neill, Neb., Oct. 81,1881.—To Mr.-.
Dear Sir: Knowing you to bo desirous of the
success of tlio Republican party In this conn
I y tills fall. I tnko the liberty to address you.
You no doubt understand the political slt
u atlon at the present thno. On I ho one hand
wo have a secret organization known ns the
runners’ Alliance, which partially com"
prises and almost wholly controls what Is
known as tbo Independent party. On the
other band wu have the remnants of what
was once the Democratic party of this state
und county; both detormiued. if possible, to
bring about theovortlirow of the Republican
party in the state and county.
We, us Republicans, must look the matter
squarely In the face, and doing so. cannot
help but see that wo have one common ene
my, namely, Demo-Independents. ,
As proof of this ns regards the state 1 have
only to call your attention to tho fact that
tho Democratic nominee for supreme judge
has withdrawn, and that the Democrats al
over the state are support!!! g tho Independ"
ent nominee, Edgerton.
y\.B JM'UUl MltlL lliuru l» lli lUUnilll.UIUH (II IIIU I
Democrats and InclopendtMits in Holt county
1 call your attention to the fact that one
| Arthur Cruise was nominated by the Uorao
j crats for county treasurer, and that in less
j than two weeks said Cruise had withdrawn
from the ticket, and that he and the leaders
of the Demoeratio party are supporting the
Independent nominee with all the force they
can muster.
It goes without say in# that there has been
a combination of the Democrats and Inde
pendents, brought about by a few of tho
leaders of tho stripe of M. F. Harrington and
Arthur Cruise on the part of tho Democrats,
and .1. I*. Mullen and others on tho Independ
ent side. This goes further than politics
this fall. It meaus M. F. Harrington for con
gress in 1802.
The Independents will try to elect throe or
four of their men and the Democrats the
same, and thus if they can make the combi
nation work they will sweep tiie field. And
now, in order to prevent this, it is necessary
for each Republican to work, and work from
now on until tho day of election.
You have influence in your township that
no other man lias, firing this to bear on Dem
ocrats who believe hi straight politics and on
Independents who do not believo in combina
tions with Democracy.
If each Republican in Holt county will se
cure one vote from the Independents or Dem
ocrats there will bo no doubt about the elec"
lion. I know you can do this and 1 believe
you will exert your influence. Look the town
ship over carefully and let me know how you
think tho ticket stands in your immediate
neighborhood before election. Wo must win
tills fall in order to carry the state Republi
can In 1808. All depends upon good, earnest
work by each Republican in tho county.
Please let mo hear from you soon, and with
a wish for the success of the ticket, both state
and county, I am, respectfully yours,
O. C, IIazelet.

Rain Makers.
At Camp Edward Powers, Tex., on
the 18th inst., the government rain
makers were very successful, and were
given an ovatiou by the joyous citizens.
The telegraphic columns of the daily
newspapers contained the following:
I “The government rainmaker^ are the
heroes of the hour here. The experi
ment, which was begun yesterday even
ing and continued during the night, was
entirely successful. At 4 o’clock this
morning rain fell in torrents. Never
before were the people so glad to get a
wetting. The men in the camp yelled
and hurrahed and danced fandangos in
the mud. The people of Sun Diego and
the surrounding country are astonished
at the result. When they went to bed
at midnight the moon was shicing in a
cloudless sky. The rain continued for
nearly an hour. Telegrams received
from stations along the line of the Mex
ican National railroad state that the
rain extended about forty miles to the
northeast, d08 miles to. the west and
thirty miles to the southwest.

EDGERTON’S PAST.
Black as Egyptian Darkness and
Full of Frailties.
IS A SHYSTER PETTIFOGGER.
Some Facts About the Record of This
Demagague Who is Posing as
a Reform Candidate.
A special to the Omaha Bee from
Stromsburg, Neb., dated Oct. 18, says:
J. W. Edgerton, the Independent
aspirant for a sent on the bench nf the
supreme court, formerly lived In this
village, and its residents have the livliest
recollection of his career whilo here.
Ho came to Stromsburg about 1882, and
remained about tlveyaars. He posed
as n lawyer, but in the five years he had
only forty-three cases in the district
court. An examination of the records
revoals a series of failures and miscar
riages that tell an eloquent story of this
ambitious lawyer's professional methods
and capacity.
It is a fact which members of the bar
comment on ns sigullcant that in thirty
nine civil actions. Mr. Edgerton was
attorney for defendant in only six. He
won only two of these suits, and the
plaintiff got judgment in one. The
other three, for various reasons, were
dismissed.
People familiar with his career here
explnin this fact with the intimation
that he instigated a considerable number
of the actions in which he figured. Thu
record of the cases in which he was at
torney for the plaintiff lends color to
that inference.
Mr. Edgerton was such attorney in
thirty-three suits. He won a clear
victory in honest, open contest in two
of them. In one of these his client got
judgment for $37.75. In five divorce
cases defaults were taken, and in three
others divorces were granted at the
plaintiff's cost. Nine suits wen dis
missed by agreement or stipulation.
Two were striken from the docket and
one dismissed on motion of defendant.
There were two decrees against defen
dant by stipulation, and one Buit for
$10,000 was settled by Edgerton for
$100 without the knowledge of the
client.
During his five years in Polk county
Mr. Edgerton was engaged In four
criminal cases, twice for plaintiff and
twice for defendant.
ONE IIUNO AND THE OTIIEK IN THE PEN.
In the former, both of minor irapor
tance, the defendant pleaded guiltv and
were find in nominal sums. One of the
clients defended by Edgerton was hung
and the other was sent to the pen
itentiary.
Numerous stories are in circulation
here reflecting upon Mr. Edgerton’s
professional conduct and personal honor,
and they are vouched for by responsible
persons who express a ready willingness
to back their statements by affidavits.
One of the first of Mr. Edgerton's un
dertakings after landing in Stromsburg
was the drafting of a number of village
ordinances. It is alleged that he omitted
to provide these legal "don’ts” with
penalties, and the people who know him
attribute the omission to his ignorance.
At any rate it made him the laughing
stock of the community, and the humor
of the thing is not yet exhausted.
VILLAINOUS HETKAYAL OK CLIENTS.
Two cases in which Mr. Edgerton
betrayed his clients will serve to show
what manner of man and lawyer he
was. In one instance lie acted ns the
attorney for W. A. Frawley in the pur
chase of n tract of land from Samuel
Rutherford. Edgerton made out 'the
deed und took Rutherford’s acknowledg
ment. The buyer paid the price agreed
on and put the deed on record. A few
months later Rutherford made a second
deed to the same property, this time
trausferring it to Thomas Rutherford.
The latter immediately mortgaged the
land for $200 in favor of Edgerton.
When Mr. Frawley learned of the
remarkable transaction lie interviewed
Samuel Rutherford, who pleaded the
baby act, saying that he was under age
at the time of giving the first deed, but
had reached his majority before signing
the second. The young man wns ar
rested on a charge of obtaining money
under false pretenses and put under
$1,000 bonds.
Rutherford at once began begging for
a settlement. Frawley had surmised
that Edgerton was at the bottom of the
affair, and he was convinced when the
latter appeared as the young man's at
torney. Relieving that the lawyer had
made a dupe of Rutherford for the sake
of the attorney’s fee, the prosecutor
! agreed to settle the case. Thomas Ruth
I erford gave him a quit claim deed to the
property and Edgerton released his
mortgage.
| This is the case as Frawley knew it at
[ the time, but Horace Putman throws a
strong sldo light on the lawyer's scheme.
After the deal detweon (Bainuel Uuthcr
ford and Frawley was made. Edgeiton
went to Mr. Putman and said he had a
deed from Thomas Rutherford to Put
man for this same piece of land. Re
wanted Putman to take the deed and
put it on record. Mr. Putman was nat
urally surprised that a valuable property
should be transferred to him without
consideration and with no previous ne
gotiation or understanding. The thing
looked bad on the face of it, and ho
demanded an explanation. Kdgerton’s
statement was not satisfactory. Mr,
Putmau became satisfied that it was a
scheme to bent some one out of thuland,
and he declined to be a party to the
trickery, although Edgerton assured
him he "could get the land.” Tlieto can
be no mistake about this, for Mr. Put
man snw the deed and rend It.
DUPKI) A POOR WIDOW.
In another instance a poor widow was
the victim of Fdgcrton's duplicity.
After considerable begging on his part
he was employed by Mrs. Cuspnr John
son in a suit against an Osceola saloon
keeper nnmed Cole for $10,000 damages.
u wus aucgcii unit uoio nau sum liquor
to plaiutifl's husband and that while
under the inlliiunce of said liquor be
had frozen to death.
Mrs. Johnson and Kdgcrton entered
into a contract by which the latter
bound himself to posecutc the eese on a
contigcnt fee of one half and to pay nil
expenses. It was also' agreed that
neither should settle or dismiss the cuse
without the consent of the other.
Several months later, however. Edger
ton settled the case and dismissed the
action, aud that, too, without the
knowledege or consent of his client,
lie said ho had received $100 in settle
ment.
When Mrs. Johnson was notified of
tills action and called at his ofllce, Ed.
gerton put in a claim for $03 for ex
penses and insisted that it should be
deducted from the $100 before making a
division. lie said he had paid A. J.
Sawyer of Lincoln $25 for preparing the
petition aud he reckoned the expenses
of liis trip to Lincoln at $10. The con
tract was produced, and ufter much
parleying Edgcrton paid his client $50,
less the court costs. Mrs. Juhuson was
not only a widow in poor circumstances
at that time, but had four small children
dependent upon her for support.
At the time of this meeting there were
present, besides the attorney and the
client, Peter J. Anderson, N. P. Monson
and C. A Johnson. Edgerton first pro
posed giving the widow about $2S.
VVhen she refused to accept so small an
amount he called Mr. Munson into his
private oillce, and urged the latter to
betray the widow’s interest by advising
her to accept Edgerton's tender. Mr.
Monson had befriended Mrs. Johnson,
and spurned the contemptible propo
sition. During these negotiations the
lawyer made a great display of temper
and used profane and vulgar lunguage
in Ihe lady’s presence. Ile^ even went
so far as to order Mr. Johnson, her
brother-in law, to leave the oillce.
Ucntlemen acquainted with the facts
of Johnson’s death and familiar with
legal proceedings think the widow had
a very strong case against the liquor
seller, and they expressed great surprise
that the suit should have been settled
for so pitiful a sum.
These stories are not merely hearsay.
Many of the statements may be verified
by the public lecords, and the others
will be gladly substained by some of the
oldest and best know citizens.
A Burning Shame.
There is abroad in our beautiful citv,
stulking about in all its brazen hideous
ness, a serpent from the nether regions,
that will, if not trampled under foot at
once, drag down to its level many who,
but fflr its presence among us, would
have remained pure and undeflled. Like
the serpent of old it seeks to, and does,
contaminate, to a gieater or less degree,
ail who come under its influence and its
steps take hold on heli as surely as there
is a God in Isreal.
It is hardly necessary to say that we
refer to the place where the tire occurred
Tuesday night, at the bawdy house in
the eastern outskirts of the town, and
to the new one about to be established.
We say. it is aburning shame that such
institutions are permitted to stain the
fair name of our city and that they can
be maintained within our borders.
There is much indignation felt and ex
pressed among our best citizens because
of the worse than "damnable outrage"
being daily perpertrated upon our city,
and the cry is general foi t he officers of
the law to take the matter in hand and
rid us of the incubus. The mayor au
thorizes us to say that, although lie lias
no jurisdiction, if the people will only
stand by him he will get rid of them in
side of thirty days.

Good Roads.
The following from the Spencer Bee
is worthy of consideration by our busl
ness men:
“A good road from Mpcncer to O'Neill
is much needed for the reason that the
l'. 8. mail from O'Neill to Fort Randall,
and the tralllc between Spencer and
O'Neill pass over It. It Is to the Inter
est of O’Noill, Spencor and the central
and eastern portions of Boyd county
that wo hnvo a first-class road between
those two points. The public is well
aware of the fact that there is about
four miles of sandy bad road between
the Whiling bridge and Eagle creek
crossing, and when that is put In proper
shape wo will have a complete road from
Fort Itandall to O'Neill via Spencer.
I he question arises, how shall that four
miles bo made a good hard road. The
writer has had considerable experience
in making sandy roads good and if the
people of Boyd and Holt counties will
unitedly go to work and put straw, ms
nuro and rtiblsh of all kinds on this
portion of the road, we will then have
n road from Fort Randal! that cannot
l)o excelled. Tills Is In the interest of
every liveryman, freighter and whoso
ever may have occasion to travel over it.
Now let the people begin at once and
supply this much needed want. Let
the people of Spencer make a move In
Hint direction and we arc sure they will
lie strongly supported by the people of
O'Neill and Ilolt county.”

The Ladies’ Home Journal.
Decked In a new and unusually artistic
Thanksgiving cover, the November
Ladies' Home Journal cornea us the first
reminder that the holidays are approach
ing. Everything about this Issue of
the Journal seems of the best, and a
higher standard has never been reached
in any previous number. Whether one
rends Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher’s sec
ond reminiscent paper of "Mr. Beecher
as I Knew Him,” or listen to Delmonico,
the great caterer, as he tells how to sot
a table and airange a dinner; or to
Husesll Sage, the New York financier,
as lie describes, for mothers, “The Boy
That is Wanted” in business today
each feature is as good as the next. A
whole page most timely illustrates
“A Group of Pretty Dolls,” and tells
how to make them; "New Ideas for
Church Sociables” will interest thous
ands of church women; Max O’Uell's
wife is sketched in the capital series of
"Unknown Wives of Well-Known Men,”
Hachel Sherman, the pretty daughter of
the late General Sherman, opens the
new series of “Clever Daughters of
Clever Men;” Palmer Cox’s "Brownies’"
arc irrisistable in their fun; Ella Wheel
er Wilcox tells of “Mistakes We Make
Willi Men;” Dr. Talmage has a whole
page on Thanksgiving, and, likewise,
hns Maria Parloa; "Miss French of the
State Department,” is an excellent story
by Mary Bradley, as is also another short
story called "The Flowing Shoestring."
In fact, there is no end to the good
things in this, by far the best, number
of the Journal ever made. Ten cents
is the price of this number, or #1. a year
