The position taken by Auditor Moor
en the" Voucher of Worlds Fair Commis
sioner Garoeau has been sustained by
the sunreroe court so the hold-over
commissioner will have U come off tbe
perch. a
It is reported that a large amount of
bay is being shoipped from Nebraska,
town and other states to France where
it sells for $50 a ton, That is one of the
things which will help to put a stop to
the crv of hard times.
The hew law to regulate the sale of
liquor in the state of South Carolina
does not seem to be working as nicely as
some evidently expected that it would.
The masses seem to be opposed to the
enforcement of the law and trouble has
already been encountered at Charleston
If the Dublic sentiment is against the
law it will be nullified to a very great
extent A law of that kind cannot be
made effective until the people want it,
Now that millions of gold is coming
from the Bank of England to the United
States it is singular that there is but
little said about it. There are a good
many people in this world who have the
characteristics of ghouls and seek to
profit by the misfortunes of others, but
the gold is coming back just the same,
and the worst of the hard times. Jjave
passed and the, confidence of the public
has been restored.
It Is not known hit Senator Stewart
will do next to boom the Texas towns
hicb he represent. It is no wonder
that the interests of northwest Nebraska
were no better looked after by bim dur
ing tbe session of tbe legislature.
Colorado wants ber staple product
made a basis of circulation and is pre
paring to make a bard struggle lo se
cure such legislation. With equal jus
tice why should not Wyoming demand
that her wool product be used for that
purpose, or Nebraska claim the right for
ber corn product or Minnesota cry that
her wheat be used to supply tbe security
for the fcirculatine medium? It is sim
ply to help itself and not to help the
nation that Colorado is crvinz for free
coinage of silver.
A drug house in Europe which sends
large quantities of goods to this country
does not propose to have a lot of silver
fnrrod unnn it bv its customers in the
United States at more than its value in
.h market of the world, and has hoti-
fied its customers in this country that in
future all payments to them must be
made in gold. If some method can be
devised by which this country can get
along without buying goods abroad
would help to solve tbe financial prob
lem. .
It would be interesting to know just
vhat per cent of the the $85,000 appro
priated by Nebraska for an agricultural
exhibit at the worlds fourth of July has
Wn drawn out with a corkscrew. It
has leaked out that a native Nebraskan,
clothed in his right mind, discovered in
one of the "safety deposit vaults" con
nected with the state building a collec
tion of empty bottles, labeled "Extra
Dry," that must have cost enough to
rarrv an election for prohibition . in
Kentucky. Lincoln Journal.
referred to in congress and if ; -yrf.
Hie bill was before the couul ocorly
three years, and it essential provisions
must hecessariaily have been well
known and were well known.
Wbv was the silver dollar dropped
from the list of coins by the law of 1873?. ":
Because the coin had long Since disap
peared from the circulation at that time.
It was worth a premium of about 2 cents
n gold then, and the amount of silver in
it, therefore was more valuable as oui
lion than it would be as coin. In the
entire eighty one years from the opening
of the mint to 1873 the coinage of silver
dollars, though entirely free, amounted
to onlv S8.000.000 in round figures. Not
one person out of ten in the United
States in 1873 had ever seen a silver dol
lar. Tbe law of that year simply gave
recognition to a fact that had been pat
ent for many years. It had long been
an obsolete coin, and congress, in drop
ping it, merely took this condition of
things into account. The greater part
of the free silver men who were in con
gress at the time voted for the act No
body discovered that there was any con
spiracy in the matter until, long after
the passage of the law, silver dropped to
a lower value than gold at the old ratio,
By hiB attempt to get a rehearing in
the impeachment case G. M. Lambertson
has fallen several notches in the esti
mation of the people as an attorney.
The application shows him in the posi
tion of a veritable pettifogger who
would disgrace the practice in the court
of a country justice. It has every ap
pearance of being simply an attempt on
the part of Mr. Lambertson to make an
excuse to give bim another pull at the
appropriation, and the state of Nebraska
had a right to expect better of hitn.
Hail stotms have been doing a vast
amount of damage during the past week
m many parts of this and other states.
In Cedar and Franklin counties thous
ands of acres of corn and small grain
was destroyed, trees stripped of their
leaves and many of their limbs and win
dows and roofs of buildings broken in.
Hailstones measuring fifteen inches in
circumference fell in some places. The
storm in Cedar county covered about
one hundred square miles of territory
and the destruction was so complete
that financial assistance had to be given
to the sufferers.
The men who have been running the
impeachment soap since the legislature
adjourned have decided to try and have
the case re-opened. They claim that
they can now make a much stronger
case against the accused state officials
than was made at the late farce. Proba
bly Bill Greene has told them of the
evidence he gathered while he was ab
sent from the court room during the
progress of the case. The committee
seems to think that the people want the
state officers persecuted instead of prose
cuted. It is about time the foolishness
was headed off. If the officers have
been charged with a crime, tried and ac
quitted how can they be put in jeopardy
a second time? If a re-hearing can be
" granted there is reason why a continua.
tion of re-hearings cannot be had and
the case used to furnish pap for some
suckers for an indefinite time and the
taxpayers could pay the freight.
,The suspension of a good many pen
sioners by the department is calling
forth a good deal of criticism from all
over the land. It is very doubtful if the
plan is a good one or is so considered by
many of the leaders of the party in
power. The suspensions are ramie amuug
those who are drawing pensions for total
Hisahilitv. and thev are being called
upon to prove that they are unable to
perform manual labor before they will
receive any further payments from the
government. It is generally conceded
that the law was liberally construed un
der the former administration and it
xpected that the reverse rule will ob
tain under the new. How far the cut
ting off of pensions will be carried
unknown but it will be felt in every
town and hamlet in the land. As
matter of public policy it is bad. Dur
ing the last year of the late administra
tion the expenses and pensions were paid
and a surplus of some millions was left
on hand. When it is considered that not
one cent of national tax is levied all the
revenue being derived from other sources
it looks like a poor public financial
policy to hoard up a vast sum of money.
The revenues are received and have to
be distributed and there is no better or
more honorable method by which to
make the distribution than by paying it
as pensions to those who were at the
front during the war. The paying ot
pensions is also one of the safeguards of
the nation, for it shows to the young
men and boys that the courage, bravery
and loyalty of the men who offered
themselves for the defense of the nation
in time of danger is appreciated.

During the financial stringency which
has been causing so much trouble of
late it is said that every box in tbe safety
deposit vaults in the cities was occupied
and then tbe demands were not supplied.
In those safety deposit boxes was
large portion of tbe money needed to
keep business going as it had been,
They represented the proverbial "stock
ing-leg" in which people in olden times
were wont to keep their surplus cash,
Had the cash which was idle in those re
ceptacles been kept in circulation, a very
large per cent of the business failures
would have been averted. People had
money in the bank which they did not
need, but becoming suspicious they drew
it out for fear tbe bonk might fail. In
order to prevent such a thing the bank
had to push its collections so as to be
prepared to pay tbe demands made upon
it, and in many cases mortgages had to
be foreclosed to obtain the necessary
funds. Following sucb actions it was
but natural that failures should result
Business of all kinds came to a stand
still; the pay roll were cut down on
very band. Of late tit confidence of
Up public has ben restored to a great

The "Gold Conspiracy of 1873."
St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
According to some of the silver men
the discontinuance of free silver coinage
by India is "another gold conspiracy
This time Entrland is the culprit. It is
as heinous a "crime" if these authori
ties are trustworthy as was the con
spiracy by which the "standard silver
dollar was demonitized in 1873" in the
United States. Let us examine these
charges about 1873. John Jay Knox, a
treasury department official, prepared in
1870 a bill to make certain changes in
the treasury service, which submitted
to George S. Boutwell, secretary of the
treasury, and the latter Bent it to the
senate, with a recommendation that it
be passed. The bill incidentally men
tioned coins, but the silver dollar was
omitttd. In several respects and on sev
eral occasions tbe bill was changed. At
length, after being before two con
gresses, it was passed and signed by
President Grant, becoming a law on
February 12, 1873. In the enumeration
of coins of the United States mentioned
in this act the silver dollar was left out
Tb.3 bill, we are now told, was carried
through by stealth, and the omission of
tbe silver dollar was the result of
"conspiracy."
These chaeges can very easily be dis
posed of. Knox, in the report accompa
nying tbe bill, called the especial
attention of congress to the fact that tbe
silver dollar was left out The bill was
before two congresses. It was read
full several times before both branches,
considered in tbe proper committees at
length, and was printed thirteen times
by order of congress, Before both
j houses it was exhaustively debated, and
in the press throughout the country it
was thoroughly and extensively dis
cussed. Every member of congress who
felt an interest In the doings of his
branch knew of this omission. Every
reader of tbe papers who felt any eon.
cere in financial legislation also knew i.i
it . The fact was frequently and directly
