L. 3. Simmons, - . Editor.
Entered at the Hiirrison jiost office as n't-Dull-elans
matter.
Thuksdat, May 14, 1S91.
The prediction of Ths Jutrxal as to
the outcome of the Thayer-Boyd case
was veritied.
According to the reports from Omaha
John L. Sullivan is not a very great suc
cess as an actor. He seems to be a
drawing card with the class who admire
him as nueilist. and as a 'mill" occurs
iri Cni of the scenes it takes with that
class.
r Yesterday President Harrison and
nartv were entertained by the two chief
cities of Nebraska and every preparation
was made to take care of the nartv in
good shape. It is safe to presume that
the enterprising citizens of Lincoln and
Omaha will see that the erreatness of
the state of Nebraska is properly im
pressed on the minds of the distinguished
Visitors. f
Under the caption of "A Monumental
Bleuder' the Omaha Bee of the Cth inst.
publishes a double-leaded editorial, half
a column in length on tlie decision in the
Thayer-Boyd case in which it says that
l'It is regretable that a republican court
lias been called upon to oust a demo
'cratic governor." llad the Bee stood by
the platform which its editor claims to
have drafted, tlie republican court would
not have been called upon to decide such
a case.
A bitter 11 lit is reported as in pro
gress at Valparaiso over the question of
license or no license. Tlie town lias been
without saloons for nine years, with tlie
exception of about six months of tlie
past year.. The place contains two dry
goods stores, one grocery store and three
drug stores. It is pretty poor policy to
refuse license unless public sentiment is
very strongly in favor of such a course.
If a license is granted and the saloon
keeper held close to tlie law or his li
cense revoked, it is belter than to put
tlie liquor business into the hand of the
uruggistifc
A company has been organized in Chi
cago for the purposes of introducing what
Is claimed to be the science of spelling.
It is so arranged that the spelling of all
words of all languages is governed by
certain fixed rules, without any excep
tions or any change. The method
claimed to be simple and easily learned
and thoroughly practicable. The rules
were discovered by a Oliicagomanby the
name of diaries A. Story. The present
System of spelling is acknowledged by
all to be unwieldy in many respects, but
to change it is a big undertaking, but we
are living in an age of progress and if
nleti have taken hold of the matter with
a determination to carry it through, it
only a question of time when it will be
accomplished.
a
by
Chief Justice Cobb. It was a iens.!iy
document and reviews the case and ';'.; -
tion therein involved quite exteu-ively.
It held that Boyd was ineligible and that
Thayer should return tlie o I lice. The de
cision was filed quite l;We in the after
noon and a writ of ouster wa.i issueu and
at once served on Mr. Boyd, who at-once-
turned the ollice over to Governor
Tliayer, alter which he took his depar
ting (Jnvf-rnnr Thaver nroceedeui to re
instate a number of ofliciah who hail
been deposed during his temporary ab
sence from tlie exeutive chair.
Judge Maxwell dissented and filed an
opinion in which he held that Boyd lie-
iuie a citizen cn the admission of -Ne
braska as a state.
The division of the court explains the
delav. Judge Cobb was sick and the
tlit-r two members of the court could
not agree and they nad to wait for tlie
chief justice to recover in order to get a
majority opinion.
It is stated that the case will be taken
to the federal courts and a ecreut deal of
leculating is being done as to the final
litcome. the case is without a pareu i
in the history of the United States and
it would be the right thing to make a
test case.
Some attorneys claim that under the
t-cision of the supreme court tlie official
icts of Boyd are not legal and one takes
the ground that the Newberry railroad
freiirht bill is a law because it was not
vetoed by the governor as required by
iw, and it seems that a vast amount of
tigation will grow out of the matter.
What the effect will be on th-i judges
ppointed by Boyd is hard to surmise.
but it is likely that the cloud which
hangs over their appointment will be
taken advantage of bv attorneys.
Tlie rank and file of the democrats do
not express much sympathy for Boyd.
Omaha is mad from center the circum
ference. That place sacrificed every
thing last fall to elect Boyd, for his
election insured the defeat of any prohi
bition legislation even if the amendment
earned at the polls, and the decision in
the case is a bitter dose. Thayer will
hold the office until January, 1SB3, and
it is needless to sav that he and his
friend are highly elated over the result
of the suit.

Some independents of Platte Center
have asked Governor Thayer to resign,
and promise to give him a chance to be
elected next fall if he complies with the
request and the editor of the Platte Cen
ter Amu is Rotting up a-petition in the
matter. If the independents who are
making tie move would read section 10,
of article !, of the constitution of Ne
braska they would see whiita ridiculous
position they are placing themselves in.
If Thayer resi ns, Tom Majors will be
coventor until .January. !''' lor no
election for trovernor can be held unt il
November, 18!rJ.
There is still a good deal of talk in re-
.gard to an extra session of the legisla
ture. The main things for which
would he called would lie. a re-apportion-
"ment for legislative puriioses and the
freight rate question. An extra, session
would cost a great deal of money and
doubtful if any good vduld be accom
plished: It would lie a good plan for the
state board of transportation to get
work and draft a freight rate bill and let
it be made known and discussed by all,
and then people will know what is pro
posed. . Of the thousands of signors to
petitions for and against the Newberry
bill, not one in ten knew the provisions
of tlie bill, except that it proponed to re
duce rates;. Tlie freight rate question is
the most important one before the peo
ple and it slioiild-be handled in the man
ner that its importance deserves.
The most childish piece of spile work
ever enacted by a body of individuals Hakiusos
claiming to be rnt'h, was the adoption of
a resolution by the city council of
Omaha last Saturday, to tlie effect that
at the reception to be given to President
Harrison at Omaha yesterday, Governor
Thayer should lie treated and classed as
a private citizen, and not be accorded
the honor of governor of the state
That action on the part of Omaha will
not soon le forgotten. It is an insult to
the entire slate, outside of Omaha, and a
disgrace to that municipality and in
future when Omaha does not receive the
recognition that sought, the only explana
tion that will be necessary will be to
refer the Omahogs to the records of their
city council dated May 10, 1891.
