DIED
Hox. W. B. White, of Tekamah,
B irt t ounty, one of the State's proni-
nent JiDd energetic citizens, died sud
denly Sit unlay and was buried od
S inJay. Mr White was a staunch re
publican, and his nomination for State
Trt asur. r this fall would have been
rmde by acclamatiou had ho lived. lie
was altvars a prominent member of the
Sta'e Board of Agriculture, a gentla
mm whj had a host of friends iu the

Nebraska's Corn Crop-
A Cliicazo pc per of recent date from
reliable report;- from nearly all points
n this si ate estimates that Nebraska's
orn crop for this jcar will exceed 13'),
000,000 bushels, an amount incomprt
heusible to the human mind. Allow.
ng 500 busheb, the ordinary quantity
for a car, it will take 2i0,000 cars to
move 2?elra ska's crop from her bor
ders. Thirty feet is the nsual length
of a freight car, 176 cf which would
make a train one mile lonir. Divide
240,000, the number of cars cpccssary
by 176. the number in f mile, and the
quotient will be 1,833, or the length in
miles of this corn transporting train.
Gexeral Bctlkb in an interview,
says: "I Bee thi'y (the democratic lead
ers) complain that I have deserted the
democratic party. There is no way of
satisfying them. The last time they
lomplained it was that I had captured
the democratic oror;inizition. Be it so.
for theu I hava a jrreat debt of grati
tude to the people of Massachusetts,
bat none to any democratic organiza
tion state or national. In no campaign
did I ever receive aid from the demo
cratic organ iza'ion, nor did any na
tional democrat from outBi'de, ever
come here or say a word ia my favor,
or in favor of the democratic party
while I was the unanimous nominee.
Whenever I have any use for the or
ganisation of Massachusetts democracy
I will get It."
The Thaiisees of the Eat are not
over-much pleast d with Thomas A.
Ilendrick and hit speech to the Notifi
cation Committee. Hendricks thinks
be stauds as the representative of a
fraud to be avenged. The Boston T. an
script (bolter) thus responds to the as
sumption that he was cheated out of
his rights eight years ago:
"Ratherford B. Hayes and William
A. Wheeler were made President and
Vice-l'resident by virtue of the decis
ion of an Electoral Comraisbion in
dorsed by a Democratic House, and
their title to their respective offices was
irrefragable. If there were any great
public ciime connected with this elec
tion it must have been ia the attempt
to purchase for Tilden and Hendricks
the Electoral votes of Oregon ami some
Southern States."
In the course of his speech to the
Notification Committee Mr. Hendricks
aid:
I accept the sujryesUon that iu this
caudidacy I will represent the right of
thepeoplito choose their own rulers;
that light that ;s above all, that lies be
ueath all; for if all the people are de
nied the right 10 choose their oh a offi
cers according to their own judgment,
what shall become of free government
if the pople eelect not tbeir own c3
cets?"
To this tha Independent Transcript j
responds refreshingly :
'There are Democratic State3 at the
South where the above doctrine would
be rank heresy owing to the position of
colored citizens, who, although compos
ing the majority, are governed by the
white majority. Xo question exists
hat all the people in several Southern
States are denied 'the right to choose
their own officers.' This is one of the
anomalies produced by eourring upon
the ntgroes the suffrage for political
ends. The fraud and violence employed
to suppress the opposition vote in 3ome
parts of ihe South cannot be justified."
Would it not be well for the Trans
cript to remember that in supporting
Cleveland and Hendricks now it is
helping ihe party that txpect3 to use
'fraud and violence"' in the S mth to
catry the election this year jur a it
did iu 1376 and 18S0?
THE STATE AUDITORSHIP.
Among the important state offices to
be filled at the November election is
hat of State Auditor, and in selecting
a person to assume its responsibilities
and discharge its duties care should be
taken that he be a man of known char
acter, business capacity, and undoubted
niegrity. Should the republicans
nominate Mr. II. A babcock, as it now
seems certain they will, they will have
i candidate whi combines all these
qualities in an eminent degree, and
who will add more strength to the
ticket in the counties north of the
Platte than any other candidate who
could be selectad. That this fact ie
recognized and appreciated iu all parts
of the State is evidenced by the cordial
reception and endorsement which is
given to Mr. Babcock's candidacy by the
State press and political leaders gener
ally. If there is any opposition to him
among republicans it is of the ''still
bunt" ord-.T, and so feeble as to occasion
no uneasiness or apprehension on the
part of his friends and supporters.
On of the leading and most popular
republicans in this growing section of
the State, whose private and public
life are without a stain above reproach,
ilr. Babcock would be a candidate
whom all republican cou d heartily
aud conscientiously support, and whcie
eleCkion would furnish an iustancs far
too rare in these days of political de-fc-euerasyj
in which the man dignifies
and honors ihe office. Valley County
Journal.
The doctrine of Gov. Cleveland that
when the State gives a franchise era
privilege to a subject corporation, no
matter how bad, it enters into au. irre
vocable con'ract with it, and th?.t ihe
community can never recover the con
trol of any railroad, water company,
gas c m;pany. horse car compauy, or
any other corporation to which it has
granted a charter, is most emphatically
a doctrine unknown to the law. As
we nave shown, the United States Sn-prem-
Court has vigorously rejected the
efforts to gain its cousent in th Gran
ger cases and a number of others, to
this attempt of the corporations to
make themselves the perpetual dicta
tors of indutry. But, though this is
not yet law, it may become law if those
agents of corporate monopoly who are
pledged to it obtain control of the
eonrta. History is full ot instances in
which the efforts of lawyers acting for
interested parties and persistent in their
efforts to mold the law have finally
wroHght charges which have really
been revolutions. The land monopoly
of England is to a large extent the re
ultc? fttch endeavor. Torcragh the
unceasing elforts of their lawyers the
land grant roads of thi country have
reversed the law of the United States
with regard to their titles to land.
Gov. Cleveland's argument ia his Fie
Cent Fare bill veto that the elevated
roads could not be regulated by the
State because their charter was a con
tract, was the most formidable onset
that has yet been made in this country
by the cojportion lawyers to over
throw the doctrie of the Supreme
court that tbe State and not the corpo
ration is sovereign in America. This
effort will be repeated. Corporstion
lawyers who become Mayois, Govern
ors, Presidents, will repeat thia doc
trine, and will act on it until by the
mere force of "damnable iteratiou" it
may be forced into the, law if proper
resist auce is not made. Chicago Trl
