WHAT THEY THINK OF IT.
RefarJD Pie Comments oa the
Great Impeachment Decision.
The opinions of Judge Pout and Ner
val in the impeachment trials in the
light of all the evidence is a travesty
on justice, and it will be very difficult
to make a large porton oi tae masses oi
people believe that It was not obtained
by partisan Influence. OgaJaJla Kecoru
and Pilot.
The opinion is no surprise. The re
sult has been anticipated and even the
opinion of each member of the bench
readily foretold. That Judge Maxwell
would be in favor of convicting and
Post and Norvalfor acquittal was ap
parent. There is something wrong
hen the opinions of members oi the
supreme bench can be, to a certain de
gree of accuracy, foretold Schuyler
Quill. .
Of course the chief justice is wrong
and the virtuous Post and talented Nor
val are correct as to what constitutes
an impeachable offense but it will be re
membered that even the judicial purists
last mentioned acknowledge that hiring
notorious thieve to do the state's work
and paying them four prices Is as they
put it: 'lightly prejudicial to the in
terest or the state. .Hamilton wounty
Register.
The supreme court rendered a deci
sion Monday evening oa the impeach
ment cases, judge Maxwell was for
conviction, and Nerval and Post for ac
quittal. When the people get an op
portunity they will render an em
phatic verdict on Norval and Post-and it
win not by any means be complimentary.
The accused officials had been given a
tip" as to the decision, and prepared
big "blow out" for the occasion when
it was rendered Pawnee Prcis.
Both Norval and Post admit that the
funds of the state were fraudulently
used but do not think that they were
used maliciously. They did not do it
to rob the state at all, but just merely
to repleeish their exchequer. Thou
sands of dollars of state funds have
been stolen, no one for a minute will
doubt that, and those stats officers
were plaeed there as the guardian of
tnoce funds, and they should be held
liable, and would be but a for partisan
court. Micden Workman.
The decision will not surprise any
body, Norval and Post were expected
to uo lust wnat tney aid. it was not
expected that tbey could do anything
nctter man whitewash the republican
officials.
But we have not heard vet from the
court of last resort. The decission of
public opinions is yet to be announced
in the future: and we predict that the
dessenting opinion of Chief Justice
Maxwell win some day be sustained by
an overwhelming majority through the
caiiot oox.
The funds at the asylum and peni
tentiary are matters of fact, and some
body must be responsible for them.
The public will yet do what a partisan
court failed to do, Beatalce Tribune-
The supreme court in this state has
at last handed down its decision and by
a vote of 2 to 1 acquitted Secretary of

and Commissioner of Lands and Build
ings Humphrey of the charges brought
against them by the legislature.
judges Post and Norval were lor
acquittal, and Chief Justice Maxwell
stood alone for conviction. The ma
jority of the people of the state how
ever, believe that the decision wa a
partisan and prejudiced one and that
these men were guilty of the charges
preferred. The tax payers of the state
feel chagrined on such a terminus of
the case, after spending about $25,000
to rid the state of the thieves Super
ior Guide-times.
The verdict of Post and Norval is
against the people, and It is no surprise,
in fact It enly vindicates the opinion
held by the public all along. But there
Is another court whose power when
necessary is greater than that of the
Nebraka supreme court. That court,
composed of the great common people
of this state, will render a decision
which will be final In the cases of the
men just acquitted. Too republican

answer for the outrages perpetrated
upon the people by Its leaders and
when these people are called upon to
render a decision Instead of one dissent
