depart and not enter the sacred pres-1

hicnt, did not attempt to enter the ed-
illce. and it is quite possible that he
may have misinterpreted that "theatri
cal wave of the hand." In some of the
churches the disguised reporters were
singled out and urged to call again,
and Mr. llradt, of the Second Presby
terian church, was particularly cordial
to the tough looking visitor. The
churches, on the whole, stood the test
remarkably well. The almost uniform
courtesy of the ushers spoiled what
might otherwise have been an interest
ing newspaper feature.
In the last year or two the Lincoln
newspapers have resorted to many
increasing their popularity, but proba-1
bly the most successful scheme of this
sort ever worked in this city was the
niano contest of the Kri uiun AYtc.v.

That paper has not failed to discuss its ,
enterprise in its own columns, and yet
it is doubtful if the magnitude of the
contest is fully appreciated. Miss F.k-

was no appeal, that lady seems to be
entitled to the tlattering distinction of ,

in Lincoln. Those interested in Miss
Kckhart's candidacy piled uj) .")(t,(iri
votes. Probably half of these votes
were coupons cut out of the AYim; the
remainder represented cash paid for
advance subscriptions, .miss j',m ami
Miss Jones each received over ri"i,(H:t)
votes. The total vote was over l.HMHMi
Throughout the entile contest consid
erable interest was manifested in the
outcome, and during the last week or
two the race was positively exciting.
The AYirx was in demand everywhere,
not on account of Mr. Low's brilliant
editorials or the insouciant Mr. Dob
bins's interesting Topics, or Mr. Cut
right's contributions to local history,
but because hundreds of people were
on the warpath for the piano coupons.

the scheme was unquestionably a big

principal prize, which has not thus far

sized "war" on. Miss Kckhart. it is
said, is a Catholic, and the remarks of
some of her friends to the elfect that
the Protestants of the city had deter

The impeachment of some of the
state olllcers, and their recent acquit
tal have caused a good deal of political
talk and conjecture, and I have con

As an evidence of decay in politics, is
the fact that a man is employed in one

The decision of the supreme com I in
the Impeachment case was not a sur
prise. That the verdict would be for
acquittal was a fifrcgono conclusion.
Nearly everybody thought Maxwell
would dissent; so the action of the
court on Monday caused little excite
inellt.
o
Lawyers and other Imparl ial observ
ers urn pretty generally of the opin
ion that the evidence introduced did
not warrant a verdict of guilty. It
was shown that the state olllcers
were careless in the administration

of state aii'airs, anil the pro-
'cccdings of the board of public lands
and buildings were clearly shown
to be irregular in a number of in
' stances, notably the appropriation of
Wi for the tour of inspection of the
board, ami the payment of WO out of
I the state money to defray the expenses
of delegates to the prison congress;
but the accusers failed to establish
I any criminal act 011 the part of the of
llcials, ami very few people will con
tend that they ought to have been
convicted upon the evidence. Judge
Post's opinion is a pretty clear exposi
tion of the case, and a careful reading
between the lilies will probably satisfy
those who thought the court should
administer a reprimand to the olllcers
for their carelessness.
Messrs Allen, Hastings, and Hum
phrey are receiving congratulations
this week. It was a trying ordeal that
tliey passed through, and an expensive
one. Oneot the olllcers told a Cm iili:n

On the other hand it is contended that

a political Issue for the next year ami

in this city anil throughout the state,
