One Farmer’s Exper=
ience With the Pirates
Stuart, Neb., Oct, 21—Editor Fron
tier, O'Neill: Allow me through the
columns of your paper to say a few
words in regard to the land grabbing
question which is attracting so much
attention at the present time in our
county. I am somewhat interested as I
have had an idea of getting one of those
snappy farm bargains myself, but so far
have been unable to do so owing to the
’ fact that every good thing in that line 1
have yet investigated has been already
utilized by some attachee of the county
offices, abstractor, legal advisor or their
friends.
I am only a plain farmer and a poor
man, and I find that my class has little
or no chance pitted as we are against
the gang which holds all of the secrets
of the traffic. It is not for me to say
that either populist, democrats or re
nublicans are responsible in this matter,
but I wish to be understood plainly as
to my opinion of the manner in which
our lands are being appropriated by
these scheming land grabbers under the
cover of an official robe. Uuless the
people awake to the enormity of the
crime being perpetrated by this gang
and pet’tion the state law makers to
enact strict laws prohibiting county
officers and their hirelings, clerks, ab
stractors and all in position to possess
official knowledge from appropriating
lands for their own benefit and financial
interests while incumbents of office it
will be but a matter of a few years until
most of these beet lands will be in the
hands of the men who run the mill at
the county seat. At least a half dozen
times I have sent in numbers of land to
ascertain whether I could procure tax
title. In every case some one clothed
with official wisdom, either direct or in
direct, was accredited with having paid
the taxes in order to secure a sinch upon
the lands, anil I am informed by men
who have tried personal investigation
that it is impossible to look over the
books except some of the gang are
looking oyer their shoulder at the same
time. This is certainly an outrage and
too shameful to endure, and while they
sit in easy chairs, paid for by the people
who they are systematically robbing,
they hold up one warning hand admon
ishing the people to look out for republi
can thieves while with the other hand
they are abstracting porfits that should
go to the people were it not for the fact
that they are in position to grab it be
fore the people have an incling. Talk
about “rottenness in Denmark”! Great
Scott! If these fellows who are hurl
ing this epithet at the republican party
through their double headed editorials
want to smell something rotten they
*
have oily to smell of themselves and
the populist land grabbing gang at
O’Neill to get a dose sufficient to turn
them wrong-side-out in their efforts
to puke.
Barrett Scott done wrong and Joe
Bartley done wrong, and they were both
republican officials. Lest we foget, we
will enquire who profitted most by their
wrong doing. Among all beneficiaries
thus far unearthed more populists than
republicans have been found. Then
why hold the republicans party alone
responsible? It is authoritively stated
by one who should know what Bartley
did with the money that one of the
greatest Omaha papers, which cham
pions the democratic and populist cause,
holdB $50,000 of the Bartley shortage at
the present time. It has been proven
time and again that populists hold much
of the Scott shortage. Neither of these
men sinned for personal beuefit alone.
It was at the instigation of friends as
much as their own weaknesses that they
fell. Among these beneficiaries were
numbered both populists and democrats.
And now there is “something rotten in
Denmark;’’ their leading organ says so.
And so there is, but the rottenest of all
that is rotten are the records of those
who seek to attribute it all to republi
canism. There is nothing wrong with
the old party’s principles—they have
proved their value through long years
of trial, the last six of which have sealed
their records of a glory that can never
die, and opened the eyes of every politi
cal faith to their true worth and noble
meaning. It is true I have sometime
voted for populist candidates. I did it
because I bleieved them honest, and
there are many among populists and
democrats who are honest, noble men.
The calou of their politics has nothing
to do with the worth of their characters.
I do not blame their party that it has
some dishonest men in it; it is the men
themselves I hold responsible, and 1
cannot understand why some of them
will presist in cencuring republicanism
becauHe it also has some dishonest men
who adovactate its priuciples.
Itogues and thieves should suffer
penalty commensurate with their crime
no matter to what political faith they
may cling, but the good name and noble
character of our fellowmen should at
all times be held in sacred trust—above
the taint ot suspicion that now lurks
about officers of public trust and
others. U. L. Peters.
J. J. Holloran, one of the sub
stanial farmeis of the Inman country
was in the city Monday and made us a
short call. Mr. Holloran says he is
prospering under “republican rascality”
and that he has sold $300 of bogs thie
fall, and over $600 worth of hay and
has some left yet.
A LITTLE OF MR.
BLACKMBR'S HISTORY
The populist press of Holt county
has been spreading the virtues of
their candidate for sheriff in print
with studious zeal during the pres
eut heated campaign and to base
one’s opion of the man upon a read
ing of those belabored productions
it would be supposed Mr. Blackmer
boarder on the saintly and was sent
from some undiscovered world to
serve the people of Holt county in
their need of an honest man for
sheriff. But fortunately for the
public it as a rule places very little
reliance upon that kind of twaddle
during a campagin.
The Frontier does not ask the
public to listen to a personal version
of its editors’ upon the career of this
man Blackmer who is wanting a
position of public trust. We there
fore quote a statement from one
whose long years of acquaintance
and business relationships with Mr.
Blackmer well qualities him to
speak. The statement is explicit
and we here insert it, deferring
further comment:
STATE OF NEBRASKA, )
Holt County, J 88’
Peter Mortensen, being duly sworn,
suys that he lived in Holt county,Nebras
ka, from about the year 1884 to the year
1899. During that time he was in part
nership with W. U. Blackmer at Atkin
son except during the first ten years,
when he worked for said Blackmer.
About the year 1895 the Blackmer Hay
company was formed by attaint and W
U. Blackmer; that they then owned
twelve head of horses, two wagons, five
sets double harness, three 0-ft. cut
mowers, one rake, one stacker and two
sweeps; that it was owned jointly by
attaint and Blackmer. W. H. Blackmer
was the manager of the company until
business was suspended in the spring of
1899, when the company’s property was
levied upon and taken by the sheriff of
Holt county with an execution issued
on a judgment rendered in favor of
the sheriff’s wife, Mrs. Ida B. Stewart.
At the time the property was taken
there were eight horses, three sets
double work harness, three mowers,
two wagons, one stacker, two hay
sweeps, two rakes, 175 tons of hay, 200
bushels oats 1 comp wagon and about
$40 each obtained by garnishment pro
cess from one Jud London for labor
performed by me in hauling and putting
up hay. After the failure of the Ex
change bank, Blackmer told me the
bank held an overdraft of $700 against
the hay company. I asked him what
we should do about it and he said:
“The bank is now busted; will let it go
to h—I have been informed that
Mrs. Stewart, wife of Sheriff Stewart,
bought this claim of Receiver Howard
for $1.50. I understand this claim was
put in judgment and execution and levy
was made on our property to satisfy
this claim. Blackmer induced me to con
sent to give a bill of sale of the property
to the shersff, or his wife, as more
could be realized out of it that way.
As to what the property sold for I have
no knowledge as neither Blackmer nor
Stewart ever rendered me a statement.
I own the west half of the southwest
quarter and the west half of the north
west quarter of section 25-27-10 in Holt
county. I told Blackmer I wanted to
sell it and he suggested that I give him
a deed in blank us he could dispose of
it to better advantage. I knew nothing
of the sale of the land until I offered it
for sale to H. A. Allen. He looked up
the title and it wus found I did not own
it. Blackmer had sold it many months
previous and said nothing to me about
it, although I was with him all the time
and frequently heard me offer it for sale.
I lived at his house during all this time .
This laud was in no way connected
with the partnesship business but was
mine personally. Blackmer still oweB
me for the land, having never paid a cent
although making many promises.
1 worked for Blackmer aud was in
partnership with him from 1884 to 1899
During that time I received from him
nothing hut my living aud enough
money to buy clothing. He lived in
town aud had charge of the business
while I did the work. I had confidence
in him and believed him to be honest.
Blackmer so handled the buisness cthat
at the end of fifteen years hard work I
had $44, which paid my way to Wyom
ing, where I now live. At one time I
turned over to him $225 which I had
earned freighting between Atkinson
and Butte. This went with the rest of
my property.
Peter Mortensen.
Sworn to before me and subscribed
in my presence this 25th day of Septem
ber, 1901.
Fred J. Swiugley.
(Seal) Notary Public.
The case of Ida II. Stewart vs.
Blackmer Hay and Stock company
was begun in county court February
2d, 1900, by M. F. Harrington as
attorney. It was a suit to recover
upon a claim of $033.95 overd aft
at the Exchange bank bought by
Mrs. Stewart of Receiver Howard
for $1.50. Judgment wasrendeied
against the hay company and ■ x
ecutiou issued 'February 23, IS )0.
On February 28 Mortesen, W. H.
and F. T. Blackmer gave a bill of
sale of the property, consideration
being $800, about the value of the
property.
In settling up Mortesen was left
out of deal and the property was
divided between the sheriff and his
deputy, Blackmer. Mortesen was
fresh from the old country when he
fell into the hands of Blackmer, who
used his verdent innocency in a way
that doesn’t commend him as
sheriff to the intelligent voters of
Holt county.
Kittie McBride Weds.
Cripple Creek, Col., Timea-Citizen:
Tuesday evening, at seven o’clock, a
very pretty wedding took plaoe in Vic
tor in which VV. F. Murphy, and Mies
Kittie McBride, of Park City Utah, were
united in the holy bonds of matrimony.
The bride was attired in a beautiful
shade of blue English whipcord, elabo
artely trimmed with cream and blue
aplique, with hat to match. Mrs. Harry
Waters, sister of the groom, acted as
matron of honor, and wore a handsome
shade of red of the same material as the
bride. Mr. Waters, brother-in-law of
the groom, a popular gentleman of this
city, acted as groomsman.
After the ceremony was performed a
reception was given at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Harry Waters, a number of
friends being present, and a very plea
sant time had bv all.
l’he dinning room was beautifully dec
orated—chrysanthemums being profuse
ly used—and an elegant dinner served.
The bride is an entire stranger in this
city—but was extremely popular, both
in Park City and in O’Neill, Neb., her
childhood home—where she was loved
by all.
The groom has only been in our midst
a Bhort time—but no stranger ever came
to our city that was more popular or
highly respected than he—and in Park
City, where he spent the greater part of
his boyhood days—no oue was ever
heard to utter one word against him.
The esteem in which both bride and
groom are held was plainly seen by the
number of beautiful and costly gifts re
ceived.
The happy couple went to housekeep
ing in a cosy cottage on Portland aveune
that the groom had prepared for his
bride before her arrival.
At the ripe age of three score yenrs
and ten, Henry Haynes, one of the
pioneers of Holt county, passed quietly
into the shades of death at his home in
this city last Wednesday, after a linger
ing illness that had grown upon him
through many years, of broken health
Henry Haynes was born in Lucus
county, Ohio in the year 1831, and re
sided in that state until entering the
Union army as a members of Company
G, Twenty eight Ohio volenteers, in
which he served as a private until the
close of the warin '63. He then return
ed to Ohio and later removing to
Indiana, from where he again moved,
going to Illinois. After one year’s resi
dence in the later state the deceased and
family mov e to Holt county, Nebraska,
in 1871, and have since made their hume
here.

Quin Wouldn't WhUUn YnUtnff.
"Quin made his last appearance on
the stage as Falstalf. The occasion
was the benefit of his friend Ryan and
the result such a financial success that
the beneficiary wrote Quin the follow
ing year saying that he would like to
repeat the benefit and asking him as
a favor to appear once more In the
same part. Quin In the meantime had
lost two of his front teeth—a' loss
which so interfered with his speech
that he declined his friend’s request.
His letter to Ryan was short, but
characteristic: ‘”My Dear Friend:
There is no person on earth would
sooner serve than yourself: but sir, I
will whistle Falstaff for no man. James
Quin.’ ’’
Blood.
Wc live by our blood, and on
it. We thrive or starve, as
our blood is rich or poor.
There is nothing else to live
on or by.
When strength is full and
spirits high, we are being re
freshed, bone muscle and brain,
in body and mind, with con
tinual flow of rich blood.
This is health.
When weak, in low spirits,
no cheer, no spring, when rest
is not rest and sleep is not
sleep, we are starved; our blood
is poor; there is little nutri
ment in it.
Back of the blood, is food,
to keep the blood rich. When
it fails, take Scott’s Emulsion
of Cod Liver Oil. It sets the
whole body going again—man
woman and child.
If you have not tried it, send for free sample,
its agreeable taste will surprise you.
