Without Foundation — How Nebraska
Institutions are Run and tlio Favorable
Condition Under Which the People Live,
(From the Chicago Trlbuno.l
, Gen. John M. Thayer, ev-governor of
Nebraska, makes reply to the attack
made upon him and other republican
leaders of Ills state by Editor Itosowu
ter of the Omaha Ileo. Gen. Thayer
has kept silent so far, but being in Chi
cago Saturday he granted an interview
to a reporter for The Tribune in which
he makes an extended statement of the
state of political affairs in Nebraska.
Gen. Thayer has lived in Nebraska
forty-one years and ton months. Thir
ty-six years ago he was one of a group
of men who met in a hotel in Omaha
*nd formed the republican party of Ne
braska. He has been a leader ever
since and has fought hard in every cam
paign. lie was colonel of the First
Nebraska regiment during the early
part of the civil war and afterwards at
tained the rank of brigadier general.
He has sat in the senate of the United
States, representing Nebraska; ho was
four years territorial governor of Wyo
ming and five years governor of his own
state. So what Gen. Thayer has to say
of Nebraska politics may bo considered
to have some weight Ho thinks the
republicans will carry the state and
keep on carrying it despite internal
fights, or populists and democrats. He
says:
“The popolist party in Nebraska hns
steadily declined in numerical strength
and poiitioul force since its first state
campaign four years ago. The partial
fusion of the populists and democrats,
which has resulted in two populist con
gressmen, one populist 1 nited States
senator, and the controlling power in
the lower house of the lust two legisla
tures, hns been unsatisfactory to both
the parties. The conduct of Senator
Allen and Congressman McKeighan at
the national capital is galling to the
self-respecting democrats who assisted
in their election, und the disposition of
the populiBts, in the division of the
spoils, to have ’the whole hog or none,’
makes further fusion between them, to
any considerable extent, impractcablo,
so that republicans will not only elect
a working majority for the next legisla
ture and a republican successor to Gen.
Munderson, but the entire republican
state ticket with an increased plurality
over recent years. ‘
"Two years ago republican state
officers were elected by pluralities
ranging from 15,000 to 22,00a The re
publican plurality on governor was
; only 0,000, owing to the fact that the
Omaha llee, which generally handi
caps any candidate which it assumes to
support, had made itself officious in his
behalf. This year, in the inoreased re
publican pluralities. Thomas J. Majors,
republican candidate for governor, will
head the list. There is a unity of
notion and an enthusiasm for the whole
ticket, and especially the head of the
% ticket, such as we have not seen for \
years,
MAJORS AN-JNTKRESTING FIGURE.
•'Col Majors is an interesting figure
' In our stute politics. Liko Jerry Rusk,
of Wisconsin, a plain-mannered man, a
thrifty farmer, public-spirited and kind
of heart, with a record of five yoars of
gallant service as an officer in the war
of the rebellion, with twenty years of
exporieuce in public life as congress
man, legislator, lieutenant-governor;
; n forceful and magnetic campaigner for
v. years over the state, knowing person
? ally nearly every voter, he occupies a
position of prominence and advantage
peculiar to himself. No other man in
Nebraska kuows personally so many of
our people, and no other man can go
rout among our voters and call to his
aid so many personal friends and so
- many loyal followers. His personal
following and political force have been
supplemented and emphasized frotu
year to year by the bitter personal at- j
tacks and misrepresentations of the |
Omaha Bee, which is a sort of free !
lance politically, occupying about the j
name position in politics as the gorrilla
leader on the border line between the
north and bouth during the war. It '
has no patriotic instincts that make it
loyal to any party or cause. Its in
stinct is to fight, to oppose, and it se
lets os the objects for its attack such
men, such measures, and such material
interests of the state as will make its
owner most conspicuous and best serve !

northwest, but three other large secta
rian universities, besides two of the
best normal colleges in tho west, and
many other smaller institutions of
learning, bringing together the youth
of our stato from the farm and home of
of tho people, 4,0U(i to .1,000 annually.
Lincoln is known as a city of universi
ties and the state is known throughout
the entire Union as one representing in
the character of its people the best
types of American commonwealths,
Our material progress for the last
twenty years, the thrifty and substan
tial character of our farmers, tho en
terprise and rapid growth of our cities,
ami tho splendid energy and efficiency
of our railroad system are too well
known to the American people to need
more than a passing mention. In our
state institutions, such as tho normal
schools, our hospitals for the insane,
industrial schools, blind asylums, peni
tentiary and other institutions in this
line, fifteen in number, our citizens take
a just pride, not only because wo are
well supplied as a state in all these
matters, that tho building of these in
stitutions are well equipped and all
paid for, but that they are managed
and controlled under republican state
administrations efficiently, honestly,
and economically.
HOW NKBBASKA INSTITUTIONS ABE BUN.
“These institutions are conducted by
two boards composed of state officers,
including1 the governor of the state,
the state treasurer, the attorney-gener
al, and the commissioner of public
lands and buildings. All supplies for the
several state institutions are bought by
the board of supplies, of which the gov
ernor is chairman, upon competitive
bids submitted for the period of ono
month to the several dealers of the
state and if for any reason any supplies
are needed that are not included in tho
estimate and provided for in tho con
tract tlie superintendents of the differ
ent institutions are obliged, under tho
rules of the board, to submit a requi
sition to that board for its approval or
rejection before any additional supplies
are permitted to be purchased. These
supplies are paid for on vouchers which
are submitted to the board of public
lands and buildings after they have
been oxnmined, approved, and duly cer
tified to by the superintendent of the
institution for which tho purchases
wero made. Tho superintendent, un
der tho rules of the board, is obliged to
personally see that tho articles have
been delivered, have been weighed or
measured, ns tho case may be, at tho
institution, and each item carefully
checked, und ills certificate of approval
indorsed upon tho vouchers.
“Nearly all of the states have what
is known as tho trustee system for the
government of their benevolent insti
tutions. That system never gained a
foothold in Nebraska, and the governor
of Illinois not long since called atten
tion to the fact that tho appropriations
made in his state for tho several insti
tutions were drawn by the board of
trustees, and that practically there was
no check upon the board, and he
recommended tho establishment of a
system founded practically upon the
system that has been in vogue in Ne
braska for several years True it is
that during the session of tho legisla
ture, composed largely of populists, in
the winter of 1S03, six officials and ex
officials of the state were impeached,
tho charges being that supplies had
been paid for on the certificate of tho
superintendent of some of the institu
tions that had not actually been fur
nished. It is also true that the charges
made against these officials were made
by the Omaha llee, and that when tho
legislature came to consider those
charges those officials addressed a com
munication to the legislature denying
any connection whatever with the
same, and demanding that the articles I
of impeachment as prepared be adopted :
in order that they might be given uni
opportunity to vindicate themselves I
before the people. At their request 1
the articles were adopted. As to three
ex-officials the case was dismissed and
as to the other three a trial was had,
resulting in their acquittal.
‘‘It is also true that under the char
ges made by the Omaha llee the demo
cratic prosecuting attorney of Lancas
ter county had the court of thatcounty
call a grand jury to inquire into the al- i
leged swindling of the state bv certain
contractors and employes at the hospi
tal for the insane at Lincoln. A large
number of indictments wero found, not
against the superintendents of the
asylum, nor against any of the state
officials Thirteen of these indictments
were tried by the democratic prosecut
ing attorney befare a jury in Lancaster
county, each of which resulted iq the
acquittal of the party charged, and the I
indictments were nulled by the state's I
attorney.
"I cannot go into detail and point
out the many favorable conditions
under which our people live and pros
per, and only refer casually to the mat
ter because Sir. Rosewater, editor of
the Omaha ltee. lias seen fit in the in
terview referred to to assail in a gen
eral way the reputatiou of our people
and the general character of the state, i
by making it appear that official cor
ruption and railroad domination con- i
trol and are endorsed by the republi
can party. Whatever is wise and ex- j
pedient in our state constitution and 1
our statutory laws; whatever is uroad j
and progressive in the general man- :
agement of our state and public affairs; j
whatever has conduced to the general j
prosperity and upward evolution of j
our people, is due largely .to the fact
that republican thought and republican
energy have dominated and controlled
the state from its earliest history; and
in my judgment our future prosperity
and financial credit rest secure in the
assurance that the republican party
will continue to lead the dfcstinies of
our people.
Ml’CH THAT IS CLAPTRAP.
“Because a populist legislature made
up of irresponsible men bent on a gen
eral upheaval of all social and economic
conditions had discovered the misap
propriation of a few carloads of coal by
a subordinate in one of the asylums
and had thereupon sought to impeach
republican state officials and the whole
republican party in general, Mr. Kose
wuter would have vou believe that the
people are ready to turn the state over
to the populists and institute in our
state government such conditions of
confusion and general discredit as have
humilliated and disgraced Colorado,
Kansas, Month Carolina, and other pop
ulist-ridden states.
"Let me tell you that all this clap
trap about failroad domination, boodle
! ism, impeached state officials, and the
importing of lewd women to debauch
legislature has been hurled at the re
publican party by the Omaha ltee with
out effect for the last fifteen years.
'•.there are four distinct and separate
factions in our present state campaign.
The republican party, backed by the
business interests of the state, by the
manufacturing interests of the state,
by the railroad interests of the state,
by the thrifty and intelligent farmersof
the state, by the industrious and home
loving artisans and workiugmen of the
state, and by the law and order loving
people of the commonwealth, are deter
mined that the best thought, tho most
patriotic and progressive mind force
shall control in the future as in the
past, so that when the present
financial cloud shall be lifted from
our land we will be in a position
to attract emigration and capital
and renew the activity and progress of
former years, That's one element in
this campaign. Then there is the pop
ulist element now being chaperoned
by a ‘cyclone’ from Texas, Cyclone
Ifavis, I think they call him. Wo have
‘Cyclone’ Kryan and a few other
cyclones of our own, but it seems that
Texas is oversupplied with these pro
fessional ‘cyclones' and is sending us a
few in a sort of missionary spirit.
1 hen there is the democratic element,
somewhat disfigured and disheartened,
but still in the ring, and last, least,
but most pedantic and somewhat con
spicuous personally, is Rosewater of
the Omaha lice. He is an element in
and of himself, and if he had a follow
ing would be taUen into account in es
timating the i esult of our elections. He
aspires to bo a little Napoleon in his
way and glories in his prowess as a
fighter. 1 only wish he might find a
better way to use his energies than in
fighting tho republican party and in
going away from home to slander and
misrepresent our state. llis instincts
are to attach and tear down, regardless
of consequences, only so he may be con
spicuous. If ho cannot bo loved and
respected ns a leader he will be feared
as a destroyer. I.ihe Lady Teazle, he
would rather be thought ill of than not
to be thought of at all.
WEAK SPOTS IX TIIK EDITOR’S ARMOR.
“Railroad domination in politics has
been one of his chief hobbies for the
lust fifteen years. Ho has hurled this
at republican candidates and public
men continually. On the railroad ques
tion his actions have been peculiar, and
for that reason what he says on that
subject has but little effect among tho
people. For instance, a couple of years
ago he went to Salt Lake City and in a
full page interview advocated the can
celing of tho second mortgage on the
Union Pacific road, and the facts and
figures in this interview, which must
have been furnished him by some one
on the inside of the business depart
ment of that road, were afterwards
used for lobbying purposes at Washing
ton. Since that time he has behaved
in a friendly way toward that corpor
ation, but has sought to maintain his
reputation as a railroad fighter by still
more furious attacks on the Burling
ton. lie now charges that Col. Majors,
republican candidate for governor, was
nominated through the domination of
the Burlington. As to this, it is well
known that two years ago Majors was
defeated for the republican nomina
tion for governor and that tho Burling
ton made no secret of its preference for
Gov. Crounss, who was nominated and
elected.
“At that time Mr. Rosewater was
bobbing in and out of the Burlington
headquarters, consulting their officials
and making himself officious in behalf
of Gov. Crounsc and against Majors.
Notwithstanding his bitter opposition
to Majors, which was characterized by
the continued publication of all these
matters which he new charges, CoL
Majors was put upon the state ticket
unit elected as lieutenant-governor by
the highest plurality on the whole
ticket. The candidacy of Col. Majors
for governor has invited and aroused
the energy of his party and put into
the old soldier clement of the state an
enthusiasm such as we have not seen
for years. I first met Tom Majors us a
lieutenant in my regiment, the First
Nebraska, at the beginning of the war.
He was then a young man of It). He
was under my eye at Donelson, Shiloh,
and other battles of the war. He was
conspicuous during the five years of his
service for personal bravery, popularity,
and for his fine executive force in han
dling men.
“I want to say in conclusion that no
state in the Union has made a better
record for devotion to the republican
party and good government than Ne
braska, and when the republicans of
Nebraska indorse a man for governor
of tlie state with such enthusiasm as
they are now indorsing Tom Majors, it
is a certificate of character that any
American citizen might be proud of,
and the atempt to traduce him at this
time will only stimulate the activity of
his party, increase his popularity apd
add to the contempt already felt for
his traducer.”

I have just come from Terre Haute.
Jnd., where I had occaslou to get
shaved, and dropped into the barber
shop of Harry Freer*. After seating
myself comfortably 1 naturally started
the conversation by inquiring "How
is business?"
The barber had just begun to lather
my face and he stopoed suddenly,
looking straight at tnc and saying:
“I l'ave been asked that question so
much for the last year that it has
made me think. People coming here
to get shaved or have their hair cut
have asked ‘How is business?' and
when business is good we will say,
‘Oh, pretty good,’ or ‘good’ and think
nothing of it; but it may be that be
cause times have been different that
I have thought more of the question,
and I will tell you I have been look
ing it up.”
‘ 'What do you mean by looking it
up?" I asked him.
“Well,” was the reply, “my custom
ers inquire if the hard times have af
fected my business—the barber busi
ness. Some of them said that if hard
times affected the grocery trade they
thought it would affect the barber
business as well. They told me that
people had to eat, but they did not
eat so much as when times were good.
Now, this set me a thinking.”

“Well, what has been your exper

“My experience is that it is the
same way with the shaving business
as it is with the grocery business
People don’t get shaved so often, ami
they let their hair grow longer before
getting it cut”
“Is that so?” I ejaculated.
Yes, sir, that is so I wouldn’t
have thought it or noticed it but for
people constantly asking me, so 1
looked it up and turned to my books,
and you can see for yourself.”
After a little more conversation of
this sort I got out of the chair, and

earned more money in any two weeks
in April, 1891, than I did in the whole
month of April, 1S93.”
“That is surprising!” 1 ejaculated.
“Yes, sir, and it surprised me too

‘‘I should never have thought that
anything of that sort was possible,”
1 said.
“No more would X,” replied the bar
ber; “but here are my books, and you
can turn them over for any month you
like. There are lots of people who
believe that the tariff has nothing to
do with the barber trade, but these
figures have shown you proof that it

“Thank you,” I said, “1 should be

“Now, last April,” continued the
barber, “1 took in as little as 40 cents
for one day’s work, and that is pretty
small earnings for this great country. ”
“Yes, indeed,” I said, “when you
iiave to pay your rent and all expenses
out of it.”
“Now, take another case,” the bar
ber went on. “Liast week I had four
customers who came in to get their
hair cut. They did not look as if
these democratic times had been
agreeing with them I could toll at a
glance that some one had tried to cut
iheir hair beforo they came to me. In
one case I had to get the clippers and
cut tlie hair off close to the scalp. It
had been so jagged around, probably
by the man’s wife at home, in their
effort to save the price of a hair cut.”
“This is positively surprising,” I
said: “This makes one feel that the
people must be much more sorely
pressed for money than I ever
thought”
“Yes. sir. All the years I have been
