One of the tilings tlml the demo
orats anil populist* full to explain is
the attitude of the Lincoln Journal
in the present presidential campaign.
The opposition ha* always claimed
that the Journal was controlled by
the lb lit M. railway, but ‘hey have
never furnished any evidence to
prove that there wa* anything in
thedmm, and now the claim is
proven to he unfounded by the fact
that the Journal is supporting Mc
Kinley, while the II. & M. railroad
la doing everything in it* power to
further the candidacy of Senator
Manderson. The fact of the matter
is that the Lincoln Jouanal is a re
publican paper first, last mid all the
time, hacause It believes the priuef
pies of the republican parly are
right, sud not bfuUi* the il. <fc M

After referring to previous letter! on
the subject, the Secretary Hays:
• •Upon further consideration of the
matter I have concluded that it' the
consent of the railroad company can
he obtained to astipulation that the
pleading* of the goverment in tin*
case may be xo amended or referred
a* to enable the government to pros

the ca*e might be dismissed a* to all
the parties thereto, except the rail
road company." The Secretary
say* furtitoi thut ha think* the gov
ernment will be protected in tin*
way and that the apprehension of
the settler* will be releaved also.
General Maudcrson, who we* In
the city today, said with reference
to the mutter that the trouble seem

General Mundersoil said that Hen*

earnest in his woik on hebalf of the
settlers at the interior department
and before tbe attorney-gunural;
that he personally desired to thank
him for Ids t(forla and that be

in NcbrasKu for his work. General
Mandersou udded that the attorney
general had left for Ohio, hut hud
promised to take up the matter tin
mediately upon hjs return, when lie
trusted that the suits against tbo
settlers would lie promptly dismiss
ed and that the questions at issue
would be permitted to lie determin
ed between the government and the
railroad company. Ho fur as the
railroad company is concerned,
General Mandersou expressed tiie
opinion thst it was fully protected
