Who has ever cited a single instance r' where Judga Post has favoied the rail roads or anyone else in a decision? B. f M Journal, reprint. We can accommodate the Journal if it wants information. The case of the B. & M. R. R. Co. vs. White, 28 Neb. 160, is a case in w'uicli the company had the right of way over the farm of a widow, Mrs. White, ap praised in condemnation proceeding?, the jury of commissioners placing the damage at $975. Mrs. White appealed to the district court and the case was heard before Post. Her attorneys made request that the jury be instructed as follows, to-wit: "If you find that the plaintiff's damage exceeds the sum of I $975, then you will add to such sum as '- you may find to be her damages inter i est thereon from the 10th day of June, 1886, at seven percent per annum." The case being appealed to the supreme court Judge Maxwell delivers fthe unanimous opinion of that body and, referring to the instruction asked of Post, says: 'J "It seems that this instruction was shown to the attorney of the railway company, who protested against giving j the same, as it would apprise tho jury J of the amount of the award of tho coni ' missionerf", and the judge in deference to their protest, withheid the same, as he j; claims, upon an agreement that if the f verdict exceeded $975, interest should ; bo added to the amount thereof." The instruction asked of Post by the plaintifl's attorneys was a nitter of justice in line with and sustained by . f precedents furnished by the state su f preme court. The court cites a number k. of these cases and goes on to sav, page 174: "Mrs. While therefore was entitled to inteiest on tht verdict and the in struction in question should have been given. It vas evidently uithhtld as a supposed fator to the railway company, and while we hope that in no case hereafter it will be repeated, yet we must accept the statement of the judge that the agreement was made as therein set forth." Does the Journal accept this evidence from the supreme court showing that Judge Post favored the B. & M. railway company at the expense of a poor widow? A ma whom tho court, as the records prove, unanimously and pub licly criticised for partiality and servii- v to the B. & M. company? The single case which we have cited Kiverton, Republican, Wihonville acd Beaver City. At Blue Hill the meeting was mail, it cot having been adver tised at all, At all the other- places the .nmings were, good, and the enthusi asm in our cause in unabated. AT LINCOLN THE 19TU. Meetings were held in Bohanan hall, in Lincoln on the 10th, afternoon and evening. The afternoon meeting was a good one. It was addressed by Hon. J. W. Edgerton, candidate for supreme judge. He gave an able review of the independent side of tho question, with cogent reasons fjr his political faith. Mr. Edgerton is an able, forcible, logi cal and scholarly speaker exactly the reverse, in fact, of what the Bee depicts him. Hon. O. M. Kern, of the Third dis trict, also delivered ashert out interest ing speech, which was replete with good points and sound argument. Mr. I. N. Leonard, of this county also made a saort address. In ihe evening Mr. d'Alleum'nd made a few remarks at the opening, full of sound sense as well as encouragement for our side, after which Hon. W. A. McKeighau took the floor and enter lained the largo audience for an hour and a quarter. His address consisted of a pungent review of the record of fie republican party in this state, with special reference to tha transportation question, it was not uy any means flattering to that party. He also briefly considered the financial question, tak ing strong ground against contraction f the money voluaso and iu favor of the remonetizition of silver. He paid his respects to Mr. Rosewater, showing the fallacy and falsehood of his state ments as to finance in his Columbus speech. Mr. McKeighan carried his nudience with him from first to iast, as he always does. After ho bail concluded Judge Wright of Saunders county, read a resume of the judicial record of Judge Post. Tljis address, most of which we publish this week, is a complete refutation of the claim of judicial ability for Judge Post. It shows by the record, giviDg full references, tnat more than half of his decisions have been reveised "by the supreme court. It a!r,o shows that he was actually rebuked by that court for exhibiting undue favoritism to tho rail road corporations. After Judge Wright, Mr. Kem, Mr. Edgerton and Mr. Warrick made short remarks, which were well received. when the great crowd dispersed in the Destot humor, ana all felt that it had been a most successful and useful meeting. I is enough to show that this Post is worm-eaten and morally rotten through and through. If he would favor the railways and be controlled by their attorneys in this small controversy at cost of a widow, he must be a railroad judge, a man upon whom the railroads have placed a perpetual mortgage for all he is worth. ) 1XDEPEXDEXT MEETINGS. The independent speakers through out th state are having very interest ing and successful meetings. While thy ore not so large as the county meetings and barbecues that were held ' 1st year, it must be remembered that th" sainpaign is organized this year on an ntirely different plan. There are . niauy nuro speakers engaged iu the I work, and the meetings are intended t to be merely neighborhood gtfherings, instead of embracing "whole counties. We Jiave talked in the last few days ith rauy of our best campaigners, in cluding Messrs. Dech, McKeighan, Kem, Edgerton, Gieen, and others. ., and their uniform statement is, that net only is there no going back from the independent movement, but that the lines are strengthening and the grand army gaining recruits. This is also our own experiencj. We 'haTO-attended ) meetings during tho last two weeks at Sutton, Blue Hill, Minden, Fairfield, THE' BEAUTIFUL ECOXO.VIC LA IT. it is prooaoie tnat tno time lias ar rived when every person in the United states wno uesires remunerative em ployment cannot find it. Five hundred thousand pecple must compete for 400,- 000 places. What I am saying has noth ing to do with the great army of the un employed, which through all ages has hung upon the outskirts of civilization. 1 am dealing simply with currents in the way of occupation." Carroll D. Wright. The above statement is made by a man whose word is authority in the matter of labor statistics, a man who has, with official assistance, collected in Massa chusetts the facts which are placed be fore the public, published at state ex pense. The "currents" which statistics estab lish are facts of the greatest significance and should arrest the attention of the people. "The time has arrived" when 40,000 out of every 500,000 who have been at work must bo added to the al ready "great army of the unemployed,'' and this additional 40,0u0, soon brought to absolute poverty, rather than starve or freeze will work for less wages thin the employed are getting, for whatever will keep body and soul together. So capitalists will be able to reduce the wages of the employed Co a lower level still, or, what is worse, reduce the force employed still more by compelling on penalty of dismissal longer hours and more labor from those wo ar3 retained at living wages. The number unem ployed is made, to grow constantly greater and wages less by the pressure of poverty, our employing aud' distrib uting system being an autocrat-produc- iDg, mass enslaving, pauper-manufacturing system. The beautiful economic law ofthe com petitive system reduces wages by an iron rule to the lowest level (at. last) on which the workers can live and rear children to recruit their ranks. Ob serve, by this law the profit to the idle capitalist is made to increase with the increase of the number unemployed. His wealth depends upon their destitu tion; his fortuue grows relatively as the poverty of the poor makes them power less. The dainties of the capitalist cost hundreds hunger. His pleasure is pur chased with tears, his case by the en forced sweat of his neighbors. Toclolhe him others must shiver. To build him a palace hundreds must be kept home less. To make him a millionaire thou sands must be over-burdened, filled with anxiety, deprived of a sharo that they produce, and suffer from constant de privatien. Why is ail this necessary? It is not necessary. By the aid of invention, machinery and free motive power the work of the world can be performed in about half thd time, with less than half the labor that was formerly necessary. But our laws have allowed, and been made to assist, those h'tving capital, no matter how secured, to reap the whole benefit of machinery, with tho free labor product of the steam and electric giants, and in addition have furnished them de fense while through the robbery and pauperization of the workers, they have obtained titles, charters and special privileges whiek leave to the poor no rights worth mentioning beyond those of the ballot and the common schools.' The robber must be made to disgorge. The monopolist must be forced to yield room. 'Tho money-Joandr must be de throned and driven to labor for himself. The means of production must be placed in possession of the. people,. . Apd .to se cure these reforms the people's inde pendent party is organized. ) t HELP THE 02'1'RESSED. William T. Stead of Loudon, England, editor ox the Review of Revieiri, writes by invitation an article to the Chicago Advance, on "The Training of Christian Ministers," which should be read by the ministers and churches cf all denomina tions. He insets on the necessity of "helpful, saving contact with the hearts and Lves" cf the people. The minister n:'"-t minister to present needs. He mu preach against present sins, and spec lly to those who oppress, in order to sec, re present relief aud wm the hearts f the poor and the overburdened He should study present evils and give less time to dry doctrines aud meta physical abstractions. We quote some of Mr. Stead's best words: "The world of living men is sick and tired of dead things, of dead saints and dead creeds. It wants live things all round. But students are too often trained as if it was more important for them to know ail about the council of Nice than to know the growth of co operative movement, to be able to pass an examination on the Moutanist heresy rather than toappreciate the differences between the anarchist and colleotivist schools of socialists. This invincible devotion to dead things is the most in gonious device of the Devil for putulyz ing the activity of the Chrisiian church Sometimes when I go into a church.and listen to a sermon, I am paiufully re minded of the phenomena familiar to those who attend a spiritualistic seance There is the preacher who often omni ousiy resembles a 'I'lanchette' or Ouij.i,' a thing of "dead, inarimatc wood, on which two or three persons have laid thefr consecrating hands, and which thereupon proceed'! to deliver more or less intelligently platitudes which purport to be the messages of de parted spirits. Wooden head in the pulpit or wooden planchette on the table, it is much the same, so far as actual relation to the living world is concerned. They are both down amone the dead men thrashing out dead issues, quoting dead authorities in a deadly kind of way, which disgusts and wearies all who hear. We have had enough of the sins of Jerobdara, the son of Nebat, whose very bones have mouldered into indistinguishable dust nearly three thousand years ago. Why must the energies of the Christian minister be wasted iu pummelling this ancient sinner, when the whole litter cf authen tic children of Nebat aro making your own local Israel to sin in every market place and in every tavern? If our spiritual apparatus is not to be as use less as old iron, we must bring it into vital contact with the actual life of the world. Train for that, and regard lack of inlerfcst in any subject that in- nuences me me ot another man ns a partial spiritual death, which limits and impairs your usefulness so far as it ex tends. "If you have the love of God in your heart, and are kind to your fellow men by ties of love and kindly sympathy, you will feel your way instinctively to tho live issues. When your own child is threatened with typhoid fever, you don't delay to clear out the cess-pool in order to compose a disquisition upon the illness and death of the son of the Shunamitish woman, nor do you fool around preaching about Jairus's daugh ter. If you felt for other people's children as you do for your own, you would have a great deal more of Christ- like work in every day of the week, aud a great deel less of the ding dung drone about the mysteries and dogmas of the Christian re.igion. As a Christiau minister, you will have to seek to ener gize and to enlighten the conscience, not only of individual hearers, but of the local community as a wbi-le. You will then have to be constantly ou the look-out f or information as to how best to cope with the evils that infest your town, and how best to introduce the improvements which might bring the township even so much as a hair-breadth nearer the kingdom cf God, where his will shall be done.-even in drain pipes and abattoirs, a little mere perfectly than it is to day. All this means that you must know the practical men, the philanthropists, the civil engineers, the doctors, and all who have to do with the government of the community. If your church cannot infuse soniethingof Christ's spirit into your municipality, regard your church as practically dead. Hence the need for an all round train ing in practical life, a mind quick to receive and eager to give out, a heart full of sympathy and tender compas sion, and a level head which sees that what is wanted is not the dead bones of a fossil theology but the throbbing life of Christ applied to the living issues of the day. That is what an ideal training for tho Christian ministry would give us. It is for those who are engaged in tho work to-day to say how far existing institutions are prepared to go on re alizing that idea." G I VEX TO SAVE. Timely, providential, Gcd-given. was the bountiful harvest of the present sea?on. Timely, because without it our coun try would have been pluugnd into com plete financial ruin. During the whoie year past we have fceeu slrwgglirg on the verge cf a precipice, failures multi plying with nlatming rapidity. With business men straining every neive, re trenching, running behind in their ex penses, begging all possible credit and calling in all friendly assistance, tho weakest have had to go under. Millions were already out of work, aud those whose wages had been reduced to a minimum were at starvation's door. Millions more of tho pinchingly pru dent were seeing their savings melt swiftly away and were close to a condi tion of beggary. . Hundreds' cf thou sands of mortgages in the hands of eastern, and English syudieafeii would have been foreclosed and a vast number in city and country. would -have- been added to the homeless poor. We sbotld have found ourselves In the dic-adful. desperate, suftVring condition, of tho 3;,000,000 of starving Russians thetel i graph tells us of, the rich and those who could rai.'e niouey alone belt gable to supply their need. The harvest was Providential liecause given at r, time when sorely needed to help the producing class over insur mountable ditllculMcs. Without it the splendid organization of the Farmers' Alliance, bindiug together millions of voters, and educating them to cope with their financial enemies, would have been pulled to pieces by exfreme poverty. The abundant harvest will give us another j ear to agitate, educate and. perfect an organization in town and country which in t)i shali hatter the throne of of the money kings and wrench off the grip of the usurer. It gives us time to 6tudy aud perfect plans of relief, to draft needed legisla tion, state and congressional, aud unite the people in an intelligent demand up on it. The harvest was given by the Ruler of nations iu order that w e might at this critical period rescue free iustitutions and a once free people from tho grasp of enslaving monopolists. The task at best is an herculean task. The people in such vast number were in a conditfon of ignorance regarding the methods of their oppressors, they were also many of them so completely dependent, that their votes joined to the votes of the rich and a comfortable middle ola.-s, made remediable legislation seem almost uu aUuiuable. But a year of reading the reform press, a year of ngitation and education, a year of effort by ten thou sand thoroughly alive patriotic speakers and writers on the side cf justice and truth, ou the side of the overburdened majority, will raarshal aa irresistible army for the ovorthrow of the monopoly tyrants, and the bringing in 6f tho peo p e to their uatural inheritance and to i he full possession of the labor of their hands. The first victory we must gain is in the comingelection. Each vote for the people's caudidates is a blow against oppression, a breach in the wall of our enemies. A heavy vote for the independ ent ticket will demoralize the old par ties and where they are defeated consol idate them for tho final struggle. Let the people's voice be heard and niako it a mighty voice. Strike now for home and couutry. COME TO THE MIT NORMAL f. i '.V v , f" f a ''' ' ' 1 POST'S CONFESSION. In the Bee of tho 20th is an interview with Judge Post which amounts to a complete confession of all the charges brought by the World-Herald. Not a single ni'Uerial allegation is denied. He admits paying costs for the suit for se duction "and other moneys expen ded." He speaks of "the mother," declining to give her name for fear of wounding her feelings. He says he never saw "the child," but denies that it was named af ter him. Judgo Post's only alternatives were to either prosecute tho World Herald for a vile libel, or confess the crime charged. He was compelled to choose the latter. It is a humiliating position iu which to place a public man or any man. Thus ' Time brings round his revenges.' After twenty years of immunity after twenty years .of burdened conscience, his sin'linds him out, and ho falls from his pinnacle just as he hoped that the ambition of his life might be gratified.

There is no man ou the Lancaster county independent ticket whom we take greater pleasure in commending than the candidate for county treasurer Mr. Hull. Genial, gifted, a man of the people and always for the people, by the otes of tho people he will bo chosen to servo them. Mr. Hull as state lecturer for the Alli ance is making friends all over the state. and has a future of usefulness and honor ahead of him. D1RECTI0XST0 VOTERS. We call attention of every indepen dent in the state to the form of ballot printed on page 7 of this ptper, and to Steve Jones' instructions alongside. It is exceedingly important that tho law's requircoieuts be understood and that those wishing to vote the people's inde pendent ticket should not obtain direc tions from political enemies in the mat ter of marking the ballots. Do not fail to turn to this page and read what Mr. Joues has to say. M0X0X ROUTE TO IXIJIAXAVOLIS. There is a great difference in. rail roads Those of our Nebraska Alliance men who are going to Indianapolis to the meeting of November 17th will do ell to bear bis in mind. The Monon Route from Chicago is one of the pleasantest and best managed roads out of that city. Its Indianapolis sleeper leaves Chicago daily at 8. 05 p. m , and arrives at Indianapolis at 3:10 a in., but passengers do not have to leave the sleeper until 7 A vestibuled train also leaves Chicago at 9:30 a.m., aud reaches Indianapolis at 3 :10 p. m. This is one ofthe finest trains that leaves Chicago, haviug through dining and parlor chair cars. L. E. Sessions, of Minneapolis, Minn., is the gentlemanly traveling passenger agent of this road, and will give full information as to special rates. GEO. KERXAXIX LIXC0LX.

Holden, editor of the State Liberty Bell, should elevate him in tli3 esteem of the people and rally to his support all good and true men. The effort to down him is the effort, appa rently, of men who were made his ene mies by a refusal ou his part to help them to positions of honor and respon sibility for which they were not worthy.
