seems to be an entire absence of fac

The political party which in 1S02

old platform? "Financial ruin" would
sound especially good this fall. Such
a plank would causo a laugh through
out the state, and would make the
campaign a very jolly ono.
The new superintendent of tho Lin

South Omaha has a population of
over 12,000, and the recount of thG bal
lots cast in the last fall's election
shows that the free silver republican
cast just 33 votes. The popuiists cast
just about one-tenth as many as the
democrats. In Omaha out of 2o,000
votes the papulistsand silver republi
can combined cast less than 1,500.
And still these parties come down to
the fusion state conventions with dele
gates based on the combined voting
strength of all the confuion parties.
TRUSTS IX KUKOrtC.
A staff corresoondeni of the Phila
delphia Press furnishes some inter
esting information in regard to trusts
in England and on the continent,
which shows that monopolistic com
binations flourish in Europe and par
ticularly in England as well as here
a fact which should receive the atten
tion of taese who characterize the
tariff as the ' mother or trusts," says
the Eee.
The correspondent says that trusts
exist in nearly every country in
Europe and are quite common in Eng
land. There are over 200 in Germany,
as enumerated in the newpapers of
that country, and a large number in
France. There are more in England
than the public is aware of. These
British trusts are organized on prac
tically the same basis as the combina
tions i h this country and their
methods of business are s'milar. They
have the same general purpose that
American trusts have and they seek
its accomplishment by like means,
even employing coercion. A" quota
tion is given from a Birmingham
paper in which it is stated that many
of the victims of the trusts would give
half they possessed to escape from an
espionage and dominion they detest
but cannot shake off without the
gravest business risks. The samo
paper refers to this S3stem as having
been denounced by the highest au
thorities as illegal conspiracy, yet it
continues and is growing iQ free trade
England.
The correspondent points out that
in addition to the syndicates and
trusts and combinations in England
there are a number of incorporated
companies with immense capital
which praeticilly morioprd i zo many
branches of business. There are
many orgauiz iiions on the continent
which combine and sell conjointly
through a central bureau in order to
dictate prices and deprive individual
members of every vestige of indepen
dent; ). No member of such a trust ha
a right to take or fullill an order
whether at wholesale or retail. In
that way the coal industry of Ger
many is practically under the control
of a combination and there are many
such combinations in France The
chemical indu-Hry of Franco, like that
of Germany, is almost exclusively
controlled by a combination.
Perhaps the Luropom trusts are
somewhat less oppressive generally
than those of the United States, but
they are essential! y similar in char
acter and object. The significant fact,
however, is that monopolistic com
binations have long nourished in free
England .and hare grown so numerous
and co strong there as to be the sub
ject of serious public discussion
Those who assert that the tariff is
responsible for trusts here cannot ig
nore the existence of like combina
tions in a country where there is no
tariff protection and they will find it
a rather difficult matter to defend
their position . The further fact that
some of tho strongest of the Ameri
can trusts have no tariff protection in
creases the difficulty of sustaining tho
assertion that tho tariff is responsible
for tho industrial combination.
WOKKKI) TllK I. KOI SLA I I IS E.
Last winter when the legislature
was in session the members of the state
house gang pretended that they were
overworked, and that substantial in
creases in salaries and additional em
ployes would be absolutely necessary.
siys the Opinion. They took oath be
fore a committee that thev must have
more help and more pay to enable
tkein to properly attend to the busi
ness of the state.
Everybody knew that this was all a
pretense, and that both tlie amount of
pa y and the number of em ployes should
be reduced. It was amusing to hear
the sham reformers talk, and it was
still more amusing to see them doing
night work. A largo amount of mid
nigh tgas was burned by clerks who
pretended to bend overtbeir desks and
sweat with the arduous labors of their
job. Tho gas bill of $500 which was
charged up against the legislature for
the month of December was partly be
cause of tho "night work" of tho dep
uties, nnd part of it was just ordinary
fraud.
After tho legislature had adjourned
there was a remarkable change in the
capitol building. Night work was
abolished by mutual consent, and the
"reform" oIlieiHls commenced to take
junket trips. When warm weather
cime a number of them made weekly
fishing trips that lapped over oach
other. There has not been a time dur
ing tiie present season when at lenst
ten of the officials and deputies of the
building have not been ot f tho city
oh some sort of junketing or pleasure
trip.
But tho fraud worked well with the
legislators, most of whom had their
vision half obscured by their own in
terest in bills which must run the
guantli t oJ the executive office. Econ
omy seemed impossible in the face of
a howling, hungry mob of ehatn reform
office holders.
INKWiMATION AND OPINION.
Chicago is raising its hands in
horror and peeping from behind them
at the nude figures of nymphs, heroic
in size, which adorn the new fountain
just erected on the lake front. They
were modeled by young women of the
Art Institute, under the guidance of
the director, Uorado Taft. Those who
are not scandalized on moral grounds,
but condemn the figures purely from
an artistic standpoint, declare that
these figures are evidently copied from
models whose waists have been ruined
by long wearing of the corset.
Gorernor Tyler of Virginia has re
ceived a letter from a woman of that
state, whose name is withheld, asking
permission to take the place of eny
life-term convict in the penitentiary.
She wants to serve eut such a term
faithfully in order that she maj- feel
that she has not misspent her life.
The governor was so impressed with
tne idea that the woman was neither a
lunatic nor a crank seeking notoriety
that he answered her letter at length,
explaining that the laws of the state
prevented him from granting her re
quest. For the second time in a year the
voters of Rhode Island hav9 rejected
the draft of a new constitution. The
draft rejectod last Tuesday by a rote
of two to one provided for a change of
the state election from April to No
vember, for two-year terms for state
efficers, annual sessions of the legis
lature and made reading and writing
a condition of the elective franchise.
A sharp fight for the senatorship
has already been started in Virginia,
where the term of Thomas S. Martin
expires on March 4 next. The legis
lature to choose his successor is to lie
voted for this year, and as Mr. Mar
tin's friends have control of the demo
cratic organization machinery in Vir
ginia, a strong effort of all his oppon
ents is being made to commit nomi
nees to bo chosen at the primaries to
other candidates. There are several
already in tho field, particularly Wil
liam A. Jones, conerressman from the
First Virginia district, who was re
elected last year, and Fitzhugh Lee.

It is said that Dr. Nanson has re
solved to enter the listsas mi antarctic
explorer. Letters received in Londtwi
from him state that he hopes to havo
an expedition organized and ready to

gaged in preparing his plans and will
endeavor to shape them so that ho may
supplement the work which tho British
and German expeditions propose to
accomplish.
When a horse balks, tho usual plan
is to securo a large serviceable whip
and Hail tho bide off tho animal. Onco
in a thousand times, perhaps, this will
make a balky horse work; in the other
ninety hundred and ninety-nine cases
it is pretty sure to ruin the animal for
keeps. Not long ago a I'.eatrice cit
izen bought a gen tie family horse, and
when he hitched it up one morning it
wouldn't go. So he sent into the boue
for a novel he was interested in, and
sat in tho buggy calmly and comfort
ably, s'.oring bis mind with useful
knowledge for about three hours.
Long before the expiration of that
time the horse was dead tired of tho
j(b of standing still, and wanted to
fctart, but tho citizen said "whoa," in
a commanding tone, and whoa it was.
Finally tho gentleman put the book
down, took up the lines,and said: ''Get
up!" And the horse got up, and it has
never shown a sign of crankiness since,
and probably never will again. Balky
horses are generally the best horses,
when they can be broken of the unfor
tunate vice; it is because thoy are ner
vous, high strung animals that they
bee une balky. The very worst thing
that you can do to a balky horse is to
yell at it, and use a whip, and get ex
cited. Beatrice Express.
The Lincoln Blizzard makes some

Sheriff Hherlttr Htarta For Kalian With

Order For the l'rimnr'a Keturn I.
Secnrrtl Coroner Sattler' Timely
Wake-up.
The forgery case of li. S. Witters,
tho fruit tree man of Weeping Water,
took on a new phase Saturday evening.
In the complaint Witters is charged
with performing the crime of forgery
in Kansas during the last spring. His
wife was in tho city Saturday and em
ployed Matthew Gering to defend him
in the matter. She claimed to be able
to prove that her husband had not
been in Kansas for two years, and so
her attorney drew up a writ of habeas
corpus to prevent Witters being taken
to Kansas. The papers were made out
and everything fixed up in prope
style, but when they went to serve the
papers the sheiiff nor prisoner were
not to be. found. Sheriff Wheeler had
expected Sheriff Murray of Nemaha
county, Kansas, to come after Witters,
but he did not show up and a team and
buggy were secured and they started
for Kansas overland, K. W. Hyers go
ing along to do the driving.
Attorney Gering went before Judtje
Ramsey and secured an order request
ing the sheriff to bring the prisoner
into court Saturday, July . and arm
ing Coroner Sattler with the order
started him aTter Witters. It was ex
pected that the sheriff and prisoner
would board the night Missouri Pacific
train at some point below here, and
Sattler bought a ticket to Mynard and
from Mynard to Murray and so on un
til the station of Wyoming was
reached. At this station Wheeler
was in rejdiness to board the train,
but took the precaution to look
through to see whether or not anyone
was on his track. After surveying the
situation and seeing no familiar faces
he took his prisoner into the car. The
train then started and in sodoinggave
a quick jerk, arousing a gentleman
whom tho sheriff had noticed sleeping
with his hat over his face. This
proved to be no one but the wily coro
ner from EMattsmouth, and after rub
bing his eyes a moment recalled the
object of his journey. Looking around
he spied a man with handcuffs on and
near him sat Sheriff Wheeler. The
coroner drew the papers and then
Wheeler knew it was all up with him.
The party went to Nebraska City and
laid over there, arriving here yester
day noon .
Wheeler says that if the train had
not made the quick start he would
have landed his prisoner over the
Kansas line and Cjroner Sattler
would have had an opportunity to
view the landscape in the Sunflower
state.
FIRST CAMP MEETING IN AMERICA
It Was Held at Ruaavllle, Kentucky a
Centory Ago.
"Jhe effect of the McGee brothers'
preaching especially of John McGee
at a Presbyterian quarterly meeting
on the banks of Red River, in Ken
tucky, was 60 startling, and seemed so
clearly to indicate that it was tke re
suit of Divine agency or some mysteri
ous foree possessed by the preacher,
that the news of the occurence spread
rapidly in all directions throughout
that part of the st ite, and attracted
unbounded interest." writes Clifford
Howard in the July Ladies' Home
Journal . "If it did not at once awaken
a responsive religious feeling, it at
least excited curiosity, and when it was
learned that the McGee brothers were
to hold a meeting at Russville, Ky., a
ewly settled town in Logan county,
near the Muddy river, persona from
nil parts of the adjoining country, ir
respective of their religious beliefs or
church allegiance, prepared to attend.
It soon became evident that -the feur
walls of a country meeting-house would
not suffice to hold the large numbers
that were making ready to go to Russ
ville. The problem thus presented

was solved by determining to hold tho j
meeting in the open air. Those com-
ing from a distance were preparod to
camp; it would Vie no hardship to them
to remain out of doors. The recent
experience at Rod River had proved
this. It was not expectod by those
who were coming that the lodcrlng ac
commodations at the village of Ruh
I villo would be bufliciont by any means.
Why, therefore attempt to house the
people? Prepare a camping ground,
and let the meeting bo n 'camp' meet
ing. This, then, was the origin of
camp-meeting; and tho first oue held
in America was on the batiks of the
Muddy river, near Russville, Ky., in
the month of August, 1'J! one hun
dred years ago. Not that religious
worship had never before been held
in the open air,but the special feature
of camping out and the nature of the
servicos made tho camp-meeting a dis
tinctive institution, and characterized
this particular gathering on Muddy
river as the first of its kind.''

public attention from the Sugar trust
by attacking the tariff.
In conclusion Mr. Oxnard says: "I
will not dispute Mr. Havemeyer's
claim that 10 per cent is sufficient pro
tection to the sugar refining interests
which he represents, but I do assert
that he cannot make tho American
people believe that the industries of
this country and business prospered
during the years we were struggling
under the Wilson law, when the aver
age protection amounted to 40 per
cent ad valorem. If Mr. Havemeyer
had said that keen and losing compe
tition in business led to the forma
tion of trusts he would be right, for
the tariff has nothing to do with the
formation of trusts."
