Tiik Nebraska congressmen fool liettor.
The Unltts.1 rltnten court of clnlms handeeldtsl
that Sllcott, who acted ana lunik for tho
membcra of cougro but who squandered
their money and lied with n woman, wan an
agent of the government. The court nays
that there in no law making the sergeaut-at-
arum a dUbiinting ollleer of the government
or authorizing tlio financial tiaiisnetlons for
moinU'rs which CiiKhier Hllcott trausaetetl,
but it holds that in view of the fact that ap
propriations are Hindu to pay tho salaries of
olllcera in the olllce of the sergenut-at arms
to receive and disburse, tho salaries of the
uieinlKini of congress nud a safe in which to
keep thin money In provided In t lis olllce, cus
tout niaken the law, and therefore Hllcott was
a cashier or disbursing ollleer for the govei n
melit. Hacked by this opinion congien will
probably vote an appropriation to reimburse
Silcott'n victims. Congressmen Ijiwh and
Dorsoy each had several hundred dollars de
posited w 1th the cashier and Congressman
Council lost over 'J,0(K). They feel happier
now.
l'KitUY IIkvtii, the Washington corre
spondent of the Omnha lire, sends the follow
ing item emliodyiiig a statement of special
Interest to Lincoln: At the MetrojioUtan
Methodist Kplscopal church during the pro
hibition meetings now in session a violent
iqiccch was made by Baiuuel Dickie of New
York, who is trying to raUt $.V,OOu with
which to conduct a prohibition camimigu in
Nebraka He opposed high license and ho
regarded it as an iniquitous system which
H)rH'tuated tho drink habit and crime. That
high license, ho said, decreased the number of
drinking place is true to a certain extent,
but not a single case could bo produced whero
it has lieen tried for four years but that there
was a perceptible Increase. The sjiloonisU
become familiar with the new law and the
uumlier creeps up. A gentleman who wan
formerly mayor of Lincoln had statist to tho
speaker that under high license there wan one
saloon for every 3 ID people and that u nder low
license there was one for every -It jwople.
This was practically tho exjierlcnco of other
states. Mr. DleMosnid that high license could
not improve tho quality of the saloons, as
there were but two kinds Imtl and worse.
He fcald ho hoi rifled a Methodist brother by
saying that he would lot the low gioggerlon
remain and do nwny forever with tho saloon.
This was In Cleveland. O., nud tho brother
was not convinced until tho rounds were
mnde and It wan shown that not one man of
decent appearance could be found in the dives.
In tho elegant saloons tho promising joung
men were found. HauUh the gilded saloon
and let tho dives remain, if both cannot go.
THE PRIDE OF O STREET.
Opening of i:wlliK ClntliliiK .'i'. Iliillit
niinio New Hlore,
Tho social event of tho week wan tho opens
lug of the Kw lug Clothing ('o'n, now nnd
hauilsomo store on O street. Fact Is, It's
hardly proMir to call it a stole, for when com
pared with other places of business It In like
comparing a pnlnco to a cottage Hut it was
an liiiMirtant and llileiostltig event, one that
tlio mercantile) Interests of Lincoln will long
HMiiHinlier. It w'an not tho m-iljuary stylo
opening In which Llncotnilo have hereUiforo
participated, but It was a grand innovation
extended by tlio people, tho friends, patrons
nud the public generally to the now establish
ment to show their appreciation of enterprise
and merit. Tho Kwlug Clothing company
ccitalnly did acommeiidablowork when they
eriK'tisI the magulllceiit slruetiiro that they
now occupy and In tills they linvo trained tho
giMslwlll of the Ix-st elothltigtrndo in tho city.
Tho noiv place Nail that n Chicago or New
York Iioiinu could wish for and It can Iki well
said Ilrokaw I tins or any of the llroadway
houses of Now York would li delighted to
get 11 chance to trade buildings, The average
metropolitan clothing house looks well from
the street and tlio show window prrsent an
attractive apKarance, but after you enter
you readily observe the oor lighting etc.
Thin In not tho case with Kwlug'n. Tho out
ward apMarancc in miigiilllceut, the front be
ing one of original and unique ilcnlgn, made
of presnod brick with cut brown stone trim
mings, The windows, which are immense In
size, are alwajn well drcnstsl, and it's an
awful cold or rainy moment that does not

miring the dlnplny of line goods and deft
handiwork of their artlit, Sir. J. V Keclon
ton, n gentleman of inre taste and excellent
Judgment In tho arrangement of window
work.
The outward npiionriiuccn a roof course such
an to attract the attention of every passerby,
but Interest In the place Increases when one
steps into tho broad entrnuce, nnd If anything
the Interior In even more attractive than the
hauiiHome exterior, for herein you llrst notice
th same bright light as you do on tlio highs
way nnd the arrangements generally aro
such an to cause no end of admiration nml
wonder that ho cxonslvo and elegant a place
can pronMr in an interior town, Thin fact In
certainly evident, and the ooplo appreciate
tlio good work of tho projector. Tlio Kwlug
Clothing company ban alwnyn lieen at tho
head of lino clothing trade in thin city and In
fact in thin section of the country. Popular
trade and travel Is moving further east on O
street and to be up with tlio times the move
wnn made and so far linn proven a step In the
right till cctlon. Their trade linn more than
doubled, ami their stock, which han no equal
In the city, can Iki shown to proper advant
age. Hilt as to theopvnlng. It wan a memorable
occasion. Tho large room wan beautifully
decorated, all the electric llghtn Inith Incan
doHeont and arc, together with blazing gas,
seemed to pour out their utmost capacity of
Illumination and night wnn almost like unto
day. The ntore had been espoclnlly arranged
to accommodate the largo gathering, and by
seven o'clock the guests Wgan to arrive. Hy
half past eight the assembly wus at Its larg
est, there lielng nearly IMK) people In the
store nt one time nud over IMHK) during tlm
evening. The sight wnn a iiloas'iut one to the
eye nml certainly gratifying to tlio firm.
There wan nu outpouring of the bent issiplo
of tho city nud society revelled In the enter
tnlnment. Music by the full orchestra was
hoard during tho entire evening, tioutttmirrs
were presented, also souvenirs In way of
booklets, iKH-ket nilrrorn, etc. An might be
supKsed, It was not a gathering of simply
the sterner sex, but the dear ladles also found
the place attractive and interesting. 1'hoy
noted tho many pretty things about the place
ami were lavish In their complimentary ex
pressions. Tho stock of lino wearing apparel U very
large and complete, nnd made an excellent
showing, while tlio Haberdashery attracted
the special attention of every male ns well as
every female visitor. The Kwlug Clothing
company have given to Lincoln nu establish
ment such an few cities can show and on this
they as well as thin city are to Ihj congntu
luted. Tho tlriu is now holding dally reeep
tlonn and will Ihj pleased to serve you with
anything In their line, promising you nt all
times lowest prices, goods ns represented nnd
courteous treatment.
