A report flashed over the wire early yesterday morning from Omaha to the effect that the battle ship Maino had lieen blown up in Havana harbor late last Tue-sday evening. Whether done by the Spanish military, by the bursting ol the ship's boilers, or by the bursting of a powder magazine on board the Maine the dispatches fail to say. Whatever the cause amy or might have been, 2''i of the blip's crew ue missing, and the (.hip is a total loss. i Many opinions are rife ay to the. cause of the distruction of the battle ship .Maine. Coming as it does, so soon after the DtLorno incident, many believe it to be t!.e work of tlie Spanish boldiers, but Bottling authoritive has reached the coutry to corroberate any of Ota tate cnentH thus far sent out All is excitement at the seat of gov ernment at W.sbington, and later dispatches say that war is liable to be .declared between this government and Spain at any moment.

BOODLERS ARE PLOTTING They Make a Malicious Attack on the Populist State Committee. THE SHERIFF GETS AFTER THEM. Joe Johnson and Ed Sizor Propose to purify the Republican pnrty. Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 16. (Special correspondence.) While the farmers of Nebraska are making their plans for an other season of hard -work and giving all their thoughts and attention to tha?,, the old gang of republican boodlers are making their plans to recapture the state government and re-establish the old regenae, under which the farmers ot the state have been so unmercifully rob bed. Realizing that they have a difficult job on haed they looked about for a vulner able point to attack, and found none. Knowing that their overthrow was in a !arge taeasure the result of the brilliant, honest, open-handed campaign made under the direction of the present popu list state committee, their malice sug gested an attack on the olficers of the committee, so last week the vilest slan der that could be invented by malicious men was printed in a Lincoln republican paper, with the intention of using it se cretly in the next campaign. The men attacked were J. II. Edmisnten, chairman of the populist state committee, and Geo. W. Blake, its treasurer, with some in. siiwations thrown in, implicating Gov. Ilolcomb and others. The story printed was a rehash of the old tale, so often told by Joe Johnson, about the re count ef the ballots on the constitu tional amendments, but charging spe cifically the grossest crimes against Ed miasten and Blake. These men hate Edminsten with a ha tred that know no relonting. Why? Because Edmisten is one of the old pops who has fought the thieves since away back in the preceding decade. Ha was one ol the original organizers oftbe populist party. He was a del egate to the Cincinnati and St Louis conventions, which laid the plans for the formation of a new party. He was a member of the Omaha convention that formed the populist party. Gov. Ilolcomb was first nominated for judge in grove on Edmisten's farm, the us of which and a beef for a bar becue was donated by him. He was chairman of the congressional commit tee that conducted two successful cam paigns in the Sixth d, strict and sent tl first populist from Nebraska to congress, and although he did not have the best timber for a candidate with him he laid out the renowned George Wash ington Dorsey. The people of Lincoln have been con vulsed with laughter most of the time fer the last week. The republi can city administration became so no toriously corruot that it could be en dured no longer. The leaders learn ing that a lot of the city officials were pretty sure to be indicted at this term of court, held a meeting and resolved that they would purify the party. Tliey organized what tney called the Hamilton club and placed Joe Johnson and Ed Si zer on a committee to do the purifying. Joe is now a purilied saint and goes around singing, "I want to lie an angel. And with the angeta Htand." , T. II. TlBlH.ES. P. S. One of the libelers, Simons by name, was arrested, in spite repub lican judges and political writs of ha beas corpus. WELL WORTH READING. Something In This Column That Mill Interest Every Itody.
