A TRICKY ALLIANCE.
A Plan by Which Nebraska Is to Lose
Its Voice In the Electoral Col
lege to Defeat Repub
licans. The alliance party in the city
were highly hilarious last evening
over newt that is considered will
carry the party to the height of
power in a short time. As learned
by the Press from a prominent
member of the party, a former dem
ocrat and state senator, the situa
tion i at) fol'ows:
The gentleman, whose name it is
not permitted to give, ays the
plans have already been completed
by the members of the alliance and
democratic parties whereby the
strength of both parties will be
turned towards the alliance ticket.
This i8 carrying out Gen. Van
Wyck's scheme, which was given
Home time ago in the Press, by
which he is to be elected governor
and then climb into the United
States senate, leaving Powers, who
is the promising man for lieutenant
trnvprnor. to hold the reins of
r- '
state government.
By this means, moreover, not only
the ends of the alliance party will
be served, but those of the demo
cratic party also. All hope of elect
ing a democratic president by pop
ular vote is of course ephermal.
This the most enthusiastic alliance
man admits. Yet, the plan is to
have the alliance electors chosen in
in this state. Then when the elec
toral college meets, these will be
turned to the support of the demo
cratic candidates, whomsoever he
be. This may bea tiein thecollege
and so throw the election onto the
national house of representative,
which is democratic by a safe ma
jority, and would certainly elect the
democratic nominee.
With this understanding between
the managers of the two parties,
the Press was informed, the whole
alliance ticket would be endorsed
by the democrats, from presidential
electors down. And, what is more,
Nebraska will be made the seat
.of the fusion movement in
stead of Kansas, as was thought at
one time. This was obtained from
authorities very near the throne of
the alliance movement, and can be
depended upon.
Yet the republicans have no right
to be terrified at the movement. Al
though the managers of the two
fusing parties are evidently deter
mined upon the movement, it is
plain it is not popular among the
rank and file of either party. Indeed
should such a scheme be carried '
out successfully, as it seems now to
, lyjve' been stipulated by the party
leaders, jit would re-act greatly
among the body of voters in favor
of the republican ticket. The result
of the scheme will be watched with
interest. Nebraska City Press.

Our Irish Visitors.".
A characteristic Irish sketch with
a characteristic Irish etar, whose
whole presence, voice and make-up
speak of nothing but the highest
and best stamp of the Irish nation,
with a truthfulness not acquired,
but bern in -. the man.. Such ' is
Thomas K. Murray and his favorite
play, "Our Irish Visitors." Mr. Mur
ray stands clearly at the head of the
Irish character comedians of to-day,
and in reviving this season. The
play which for seven years has been
his standard success, he has repeat
ed, and in fact eclipsed the success
of former seasons. This is due in a
great measure to the undoubted
merit of each member of the com
pany which now support him, and
the care and attention he has given
this season to the careful staging of
"Our Irish Visitors." Mr. Murray's
support this season is composed of
the pick of the comedy world, with
such artists as Frank Davis, Will O.
Petrie, Charlie Sabine, Val Dresser,
Ed. Sanford, Maggie Elise, Katie
Rooney, Ilattie Delaro Barnes, May
Xugent, Helena Coe,Janie Grey and
Fannie Wallace. - You will laugh
for a month after seeing "Our Irish
Visitors." Go - and enjoy a good
laugh to-night.

Weiss set things in motion by of
fering the following resolution:
Resolved, That ex-Commissioner
General Greer be requested to furn

IW.Tl. a full and complete report of
all his doings and actions as com
missioner general; also lo furnish

and from whom; also the amount
expended and for what put pose, to
whom paid during his term of of
fice; alwo to turn over to his succes
sor in office all moneys, furniture,
property and other belongings to
the commission.
Resolved, That the secretary be
instrected to forward a copy of this
resolution to Mr. Greer.
The following resolution was ac
cepted and adopted by his col
leagues: Resolved, Tnat the Nebraska
educational exhibit be made in the
Liberal Arts building in connection
with the educational exhibits ol
other states, as required by the
rules prescribed by the natioua
board of control, and that energetic
fffnrin hp made to have the exhibi
in kppnincr with the excellence of
our educational system, and tha
we earnestly invite the hearty co
oueration of all educational insti
tutions in the state in our eiforts to
make a creditable snowing o
Nebraska's advancement and lib
eralitv in educational development
and that we will extend all financial
aid nossible to accomplish that end
Resolved. That application be
immpdintelv made for 3.003 feet o
floor space in the Liberal Aris
buildinr. to be used for the
Nebraska educational exhibit.
On motion of Commissioner
Weiss the secretary was instructed
to forward a copy of the resolu
tions passed yesterday to 1'res
Ident Strang calling for an itemized
Rlalement of the financial affairs of
his official career and a full state
ment of all his doings.
The afternoon session was spent
in informal discussions ot ways
andmjans and worrying over the
following teleeram irom Garneau
who went to Chicago yesterday
"Burnham in Boston. Returns
Mondav. From what his chief
clerk savs he don't think Woods
plans suit.
"Joseph Garneau, Jr."
As may be inferred from the reso
lution passed so promiscuously and
profusely' yesterday and to-day,
there seems' to be much dissatis
faction and suspicion as to the con
dition of the finances of thecommis
ion. The $3,000 allowed for the
first year have about evaporated
and their is nothing on the records
to show where much of the money
expended has gone to. It is sup
posed that Strang could throw
few rays of light on the matter. The
commissionas reorganized proposes
to sift all dark matters to the bot
tom. ..

been drawn and only $1,999.99 had

Silver Weddln:;
On Thursday, the litu inst., Mr.
and Mrs. William Morrow cele
brated their silver edding, sur
rounded by their interesting family
and a larie number of their friends
and neighbors. The day was cold
and disagreeable, but this fiict did
not keep away relatives and friends
from a distance, and a least one
hundred people were present to
offer congratulations and join in
the festivities ol the day.
There is not a household in this
community which is better known
or more respected than "the Mor
row's," the' having lived here for
years, and, while Mr. Morrow has
accumulated quite a considerable
share of this world's goods, it has
been done without injury to his
neighbors. During his entire life
he has had time, while caring for
his own interests, to help his fellow
men, and there is not a member of
his family but will follow his most
worthy example.
The refreshments prepared for
the occasion were of the highest
order and ample to satisfy the de
mauds ol all present. We venture
to say that never were congratula
tions more sincere or heartfelt than
those offered Mr. and Mrs. Morrow
that dav by their friends, and the
the Banner begs to join in thtvwish
that a loner life of happiness and
prosperity may be in store for them

The Chinese system of government
lacks entirely the progressive and uni
fying element of popular election.. The
people have no voice , in the choice of
their rulers, and the rulers consider the
people as so many eheep to be fleeced.
The officials are paid starvingly low
salaries, and many offices are openly
bought. Corruption and extortion may
therefore be said-1 to be almost sanc
tioned, the only restraint being the dread
of insurrection and the power of guilds,
clans and secret societies. There is im
perfect protection from robbers and
pirates, many villages preferring to sub
sidize robber bands rather than to have
to deal with the worse foxm of robbery
practiced by the officials. Westminster
