.Hnch Ado About Nothin?" "Hares
Xest" "Hen On."
In orderlhat our readers may un
derstand "the situation," we copy the
following article, entire, from the
State Journal, a newspaper published
at Lincoln In this State, and edited
by Hon. C. H. Gere, State Senator
from the Lincoln District:
FAIR FLAY IS A JEWEL.
We clip the following from the RrowrtYlHe
A&vrtvter, written while the Investigation'
of the acu of the Commissioners was still
pendlBtr: .... ,
Thn nnr nwdrn mav understand this in? I
ter of Investigation, we state the fact that at
the lnut eMon of the Legislature, n law w as
TwuieAd athorlzlnir the CominliJ-uer to
Nbll the cnsold )oU in the city oi Lincoln,
and from the proceeds expend sixteen thous
nnd d'Mitrs in cornpleilng the dome of the
capitol tuUdlnir, and euclilng, grading and
ornamenting the HTour.ds: and further to
ppeDd fifty thousand dollars in the building
of a state Lnnattc Asylum : and not exceed
in the sum of one hundred thousand dollars
In the erection of a State University and Ag
ricultural Coilefre. If tlie city low, aumonz
pittobesold did not brine sufficient money
. to meet these expropriations, t he Commis
' Bloners were authorised to sc'I a sufficient
a.mntitit of saline lauds, not t exceed forty
Kvtirri tn make r,D the deficiency. The
rominintiior.ers findlne the lots and lands
wnnMrralize hevond expectations, sold to
an amount in the psrgregate. nearly lour
innrlri thousand jlcUlars. and adopted spe
cification 4nolving the expenditure of one
hundred and Grty two mousanu uowurs ior
the erection of a htate University and Agri
ifnral Villpiret and one hundred and ttilr-
tv-seven thousand dollar for the erection of
an Insane Asylum. The 7glslature feeling
ti.r.t hnupver nure might be tin motive ol
t, nnmmlsKioners. the establishment of
ub a precedent was dancerous to the best
Interests of the Ktate, and ought not tobe
. permit tel. Hence the creation or the Joint
committee referred to. These are the simple
facts connected with this Investigation mat
ter fl
It Is evident that the AdvcrtUrr expected a
different termination of this affair from its
manner of putting the case. Uut upon any
hrpothesis, tU way of reading up the history
of the University building Is decidedly cool.
We call the attention of our renders to the
fhet thst the law establishing the University
of Nebraska, approved FeU 10, 1SG9, contains
the following section:
bKCTiov 24. Nosuperstructuralwork upon
any building for the University shuli Ik?
commenced, until the desijrnes and plans
therelor shall have been submitted to the
J'.oard of lteeents, by the Commissioners for
l'ut)lle Buildings, and the architect thereof
shall I required, belore allowing any super
structure to be erected, to make such altera
tions in the plans and specifications as may
e directed by a majority of the Regents.
The following is a list of the Board of Re
cent : 1st Judicial District, Hon. II. W. Fur.
nw. of Urownville- Rev. D. R. Duncan, of
rawnee; and Rev. J. O. Elliot, of Nebraska
City. 2d D10. C. H. Chase of Omaha ; Hon.
. B. Fullei, of Saunders; and liev. J. B.
Maxfleld,of Cass. 3d Dlst., Will B. Dale, of
Oolumbus; Dr. Loneler, of Washington;
and Wm. Olinger. of Burt.
The Regents held their first meeting in ,
June last, during the first sales. The plans
were submitted to them but none were ac
cepted. Mr. McBlrd, of Logansport, Ind..
had one on exhibition that came the nearest I
to the Idea of the Regents, but was mt large j
enoogb and lacked in windows.
The lots were selling very well and rapidly
and it was apparent that the sum realized
could be run up far beyond the amount ap
priated.. The Board of licgents then and
there advised the commissioners to go on
selling, arid to erect better superstructures
than could be let at SWt'.oud. They passed
resolution unanimously advising mis ana
authorising the Commissioners to procure a
modification and enlargement of Mcliird's
plan. The Governor went to Chicago to con
sult with architect and builders and procur
ed the modification and enlargement, with
trim tmdenitjindlne that the new plan
would involve the expense of about S jO.Wu
more than the first, and upon Ms return
called another meeting of the Board of Re
gents. The Regents met and unanimously
iigreed upon the new plan.
The Commissioners were still unwilling to
assume the responsibility, and called a meet
ing of the prominent men of Nebraska City,
to consult in the premise. Among the many
who responded- were Jadge Mason, Judge
Kinney, Hon. T. B. Stevenson, und Hon.
Ecrnr one expressed his entire approval of
the proposed enlargement oi inepians. An
other meeting was called at Omaha, and the
Judgement of the leading men in that city
ukel. It was thattheOmmiBslonersoueht
to follow the advice of the Regents. Other
prominent citizens In every part of the
Htate were consulted by letter, and all re
sponded In the same tone, "go on the people
will sustain you !"
" In the matter of the Insane Asylum, it Is
only necessary to any that it was Impossible
for the Commissioners to get a single plan
i hat would answer the first purpose of such
n bull din k. t he accommodat ion oi t he. pa t lent
now provided for by the Ktate, at a cost of
y'w.wii, or even rnw.mw, ana mey auviseu in
this case with public men an. with a similar
result as In the case of the University.
Therefore It sonndsa lJrtle refreshing to
li-ar the Adrdrrucr say that the Iejrlsture
fer' that such work '"ought Z.vl to be per
lultted." It was perfectly competent for the Legisla
ture to heartily approe the course of the
Cora miss loners, and they done it with a
unanimity that does honor to their Judge
ment. Weclosebv saying that theCommlssioners
did not Ycailre nearly SWO.OuO" by the sales
of lNi'J. When the Governor mentioned the
nrurefi he referred to the entire proceeds of
'67, CH and !.. $21)6,000 are the figures for OT
us stated officially.
We also mention Incidental to a statement
In the Advtrtiter of a week previous, that the
"Palatial Mansion" pf tiovernor Butler costs
nbout 812,01. and not "twenty to twenty-five
thousand dollars." Also that the "Palatial
Mansion" of secretary Kennard costs Sx.wm.
and not fl5.(i0." Also that the "neat little
residemV of Auditor Gilltspleis ewtimnted
by 1U builder to oostalinoNt precisely the
amount of the "palatial-' residence last men
tioned. It's only a choice of words, and a
alight exaggeration of cost lathe two first
named that makes It sound so different.
ttaU Journal, Lincoln, March 12, 1S7U.
We preface comments on the fore
golDg, by raying that until now, we
have .taken no part, one way or the
othr, In the lato "unpleasantness" at
the Capitol, and Its sequences; but
have fetudlou&ly avoided writing or
publishing anything In relation there
to, except simply facts, without note
or comment. We have paid no at
tention whatever, to the "thousand
and one" floating and irresponsible
rumors, and charges against the Com
rolsMoners, aa to peculations and
frauds ;. favoritism In Railroad land
matters; - Interests In Saline opera
tions; money making, &,c, knowing
that such charges are common, and to
be expected against public men in
such positions, especially from an op
position press and others perhaps of
the same party, Incited In most In
stances by motives of jealousy, on the
principle of ,toutfu against "ins."
Even If all that Is charged In these
respects be true, we repeat what we
have before said, we Bee no criminali
ty. On ,the contrary we have ever
been careful to award the greatest
credit to the Commissioners for the
unexpected and unprecedented "suc
cessful management of the. Capitol
enterprise throughout. We here pub
licly repeat It. We would not even
now touch the subject, but Sot the In
dividual attack In the foregoing, and
the utter disregard for truth in refer
ence to the State University matter,
of which we have personal knowl
edge. As to the "manner of putting the
case", referred to In the third para
graph of the foregoing, we have only
to say that the language used was quo
ted verbatim from -the law In the case,
fit will be seen by reference to It.:The
figures we received from a State cfii
clalcuttodian of statistics.
We are one e Regents ot the
State University ; was present at the
meeting referred to in June, and par
ticipated la Its proceedings.
The action of the Board of Regents
at that meeting, raa as follows : the
assertion and representations of the
Journal, to the contrary, notwith
standing. A number cf plans and
specifications for a State University
. building, were presented for exami
nation and consideration ; and after
mature deliberation, the Hoard recom
mended ike adoplionqf the Logansport,
or ZfcBirdplan, which the Architect,
who was present, assured could be
erected within the limits of the appro
priation $100,000. Gov. Butler, and
perhaps one or two other members of
the Board, did not like the arrange
ment of certain windows, and a few
other minor matters, and asked that
changes might be made, only in that
respect. The architect, or representa
tive of the plan agrerd upon, who
was still In the room, was asked if the
changes referred to, would add to the
expense of the building. He replied,
it would net, and thereupon the Gov
ernor, or Commissioners, were author
lzc'. to make the changes. "As further
evidence that the question of exceed
ing the appropriation authorized by
law, was considered at that meeting,
and decided upon, we state that a
majority, If not all the Board, prefer
red a plan known as the Chicago plan,
but which involved the expenditure
of $150,000, and was therefore out of
the question. One or more of the
Commissioners suggested and recom
mended that $50,000 of the Regent's
Fund, accruing from the levy of one
mill on the dollar taxable property of
the State, be diverted, added to the
$100,000, and uscdjn the erection of
the buildiug, and by'which the Chi
cago plan might be adopted. -The
Board decided adverse to this propo
sition for two reasons. "Fir., that
there teat no authority for exceeding
the approjtriatiori made by law, for the
erection of the -University building.
Second, that the law provided for the
sacredness of the Regents' fund, and
there was no authority for diverting it,
We undertake to say that the Board
was very particular on this point. The
Regents did not, therefore, at that
meeting, "then and there, advise the
Commissioners to go on selling, and
to erect better superstruc tures than
could be let at $100,000." The Regents
did not at that meeting "pass a resolu
tion advising this," but on the contra
ry, were very particular to keep with
in the bounds of the appropriation,
and to do nothing Inconsistent with
the express provisions of the law in
the case. The point was fully discuss
ed, and no other conclusion was. or
could be arrived at. We could give
more as to details of what transpired
at that meeting of the Board, but
deem this sufficient for the present.
Now, as to the legal gentlemen
whose names are mentioned as hav
ing "responded" to the "call" for "a
meeting of the prominent men ofXe
braska City." Tl'e know that some of
those whose names are mentioned,
never were consulted, or ever knew that
such a meeting teas held ; and we ven
ture the assertion that not one of them
did, or will risk his legal reputation,
and advise any official to violate the
plain lefter of both the constitution and
thclaw, and say. "go on the people
will sustain you!" We repeat, not
one of them will do so! Eveu if it was
true that the meetings referred to, was
held, and thafpromlnent citizens" in
every part of the State recommended as
claimed, it was still no authority for
exceedi ng express j)rovisions of law.
The only real pointinvolved in this
whole matter is, has the constitution
and law been violated ; or to use a
milder term, been exceeded t The
Comissioners do not leny this fact;
they admit It. Then why all this ado
to bolster It up? It Is not even a po
litical question. It Is a question of
principle In law, In wlrch the welfare
ami interests of the whole State are
involved, and both individuals and
the press should be permitted to rise
above the promptings of prejudices or
even political affiliations in consider
ing and determining the matter.
We repeat, that however pure might
be the intention or motives of
the official thus offending, no "prom
inent citizen" or Legislative assembly
will, have, or dare establish the prece
dent sustaining such a course. The
report of the committee referred to
does not do it. The ciise is not with- J
out precedent in our own State, or
rather Territory. It will be remem
bered that Gov. Saunders, while Gov
ernor of the Territory, offered a re
ward for the apprehension of ft mur
derer. When the legislature afterward
convened, he asked an allowance or
an appropriation to meet the case, and
while, if we remember correctly, the
allowance was granted, the Legisla
tureand it contained at that session
some of the finest legal ability of the
State was very particular to say
there was no authority for the act,
and to do nothing that would leave
even the semblance of establishing a
precedent for 6uch a course.
The Advertiser repeats for the Jour
naCs benefit, that the Legislature did
"feel" that such things "ought not to
be permitted," and Ire, or they, who
does not know that It so felt, must be
dull of comprehension, to say the
least. .. '
As to the JburnaPa.tenaeiousness
in regird to the amount of excess on
the part of the Commissioners, we
care but little, whether it was one
hundred, or one thousand dollars.
The offense is notmltigated even, if it
be true that the amount was $200,000
Instead of "nearly $400,000." One of
the Commissioners himself informed
us that that the amount sold was
$390,0)0.
The Journal objects to, or is not
pleased, It seems, with our reference
to the fine and creditable buildings of
the State officials, who happen to be
the Commissioners In question. . The
article containing the objectionable
references, was written as editorial
correspondence, on our arrival at Lin
coln, before there was an investigating
committee appointed, and was intend
ed as a compliment to that enterpri
sing and go-ahead town ; and we ven
ture to say might have been copied by
the Journal as such, had there been
no committee talked of, or appointed.
Under the circumstances, . the Jour
nal's exceeding sensativeness can
only be taken as an indication of
"fearful uneasiness." "Conscience
does make coward's of us all."
As the quotations, as in the Journal,
are .unjustly mutilated, we re-print
the paragraph entire, as it appeared I
originally in the Advertiser, that cur
readers may eee the "mare's nest" for j
themselves :
Mint -mlnnhl improvements have been
made m Li ncoln since last winter. The Dome
of live Capitol is completed ; the foundations

en or eight thousand dollars, mere are
fn.nir nthAi ami vnlnfitilp residences and
business houses completed, and In process of
construction; all unerring indications oi me
onward progress of this wonder iui mue
city.
We decline being held responsible
for the obtuseness of the Journal in
this matter.
We repeat, thus con troves sy is not
of our seeking, and but for reasons,
before given, and that in addition si
lence would have worked injustice to
us. we would not now have said a
word; nor have we any desire to pro
Ion the matter. If. however, the
Journal, or any one else, Insists upon
a discussion of the question, on its
merits, they need look no further.

correct; but also find that it was called upon
a few months later for a second report, and
that it was to this that tlie Ktate Treasurer
referred as being so late as to delay the ap
portionment. We presume that our state
ment with regard to the way that the busi
ness was done.ls substantially correct. We
may have be-n mistaken In attributing cul-
C able negligence to the Nemaha Treasurer,
ut when an attack is made upon an official
for malfeasance that we know to be unfoun

sion that the assailing party Is the chap that

The Cuban JLeague nave issued an
address to the American people, cal
ling a mass meeting at Cooper Insti
tute, New York, on the 4th of April
The object is to urge the accord
ance of belligerant rights to the Cu
ban Republic. While innumerable ex
ecutions in cold blood, mock the name
of justice and mercy in every town in
Cuba where Spain has kept a guard,
our humanatanan orators are worse
than dumb. American citizens even
are insulted and murdered by Spanish
attempts to stamp out the spirit of
Liberty. 4,Are our peace men silent
because they dare not advocate the
stoppage of war by the intervention
of a stronger power? Where Is our
sympathy with a people fighting on
their native soil for self-government,
for the freedom of a million of slaves
besides, and for all that christian civ
ilization has to give to a free nation?"
We sincerely trust those newspapers ' that
announced, As we predicted, a committee

- Will the Journal afford the oppor
tunity, by leading off in the matter ?
It Is the only paper In the State that
has access to "the full evidence elicited
by that committee, which was written
down on the spot." "Those newspa
pers that announced as we jircdicted

Cuba An Appeal to Nebraska.
We publish on our first page of to

in behalf of Cuba, by General Vik

al, while an adopted citizen of fhis
countrv. served honorably in the
Union army during the late rebellion,
and is now desirous of raising men to
goto Cuba and assist in "Freedom's
struirKle there. While we fail to see a
prospect of his desires being gratified,
we accord to him all praise for his
"good intentions." ,
We congratulate our cotemporary,
the Democrat, on its enlargement and
otherwise' greatly improved appear
ance the past week. It is one of the
indications of thrift and enterprise for
which Brownville has ever been char
acterized. Drawing our inference
from an article which appeared some
weeks ago in the Democrat, showing
the excess of Republican patronage
over that of its own party, we con
elude that it is indebted to Republi
can liberality for its ability to keep
pace with the progress of thecomrauni
ty in which it is located. We hope to see
Brownville and the Republican party
grow, until they are large enough and
strong enough to sustain a haf dozen
more such papers as the Democrat and
Advertiser both.
We are Indebted to Hon. Schyler
Colfax, Vice President, for valuable

Life In Germany.
You enter a German house, without
k nocki ng, through a door w h icli rings
a bell, and thus announces the ingress
or egress of some one. At the foct of
the staircase you find a bell-handle,
by ringing at which you call a ser
vunt, who conducts you to a parlor or
reception room on the next floor,
which you enter by knocks. You
will find tlie parlor and best rooms
in the house adorned with beautiful
pictures on the walls and.elegant lace
curtains at the windows, but probably
without any carpet. 1 he floor, how
ever, is tesselated with beautiful pat
terns in various colors, and varnish
ed ; or, at least, it Is scoured till it is
as white as the driven snpw. The
amount of fine white lineii which a
German housekeeper has, and which
she is not reluctant to show herguests,
is fabulous. This is partly a mark of
irentility and partly a matter of neces
sity, for the Germans haverbut three
or four washing days in the whole
vear. And the bakincr of the black
bread of the peasants is as infrequent
as their washing, lhe Germans jn

We attended a concert of most de
lightful music, but it began at 5 P. M.
and closed at 7 in the evening. In
short, the childlike virtues of sim
plicity, candor, naturalness, and hear
tiness, which have almost died out in
fashionable American society, still
exist in Germany in all their primi
tive perfection. When we parted from
our hostess, she embraced my wife
and kissed her repeatedly, as If she
had been a sister or a daughter, and
did not even let her husband depart
without a share of this hearty lene-
dietion. Letter from Prof. W. 6. Ty

Daniel Webster said : "No man is
so high as to be independent of the
great success of this great interest,
(the agricultural) ; no man is so low
as not to be affected by its- prosperity
or decline. The cultivation of the
earth is the most important work of
man. Man may be civilized, in some
degree, without great progress in
manufacture and with but little com
merce with his distant neighbor, but
without cultivation of the earth, he is
in all countries a savage. ; Until he
gives up the chase and fixes himself
to some place, and seeks a living from
the earth, he is a roaming barbarian
When tillage begins other arts follow.
lhe farmers, therefore, are the found
ers of civilization.

This Is decidedly the most Important Invention
of modern times. Its simplicity and wonderful
adaptation both lor IIOCSKand CAR WINDOWS Is
perfectly astonishing; accomplishing everything
that can pos.bly bedesired. and yet being chkapek
than any other window fast. For hoase windows it
dispenses with weights and pulleys, operating
equally well on top and bottom sashM, allowing
iiher to be raised or lowered as mecii or little as
wished to secure ventilation, and yet be securely
lockKl at every point, from the intruder or burglar,
and will never get out of order. It has the peculiar
element of locking itself in whatever position you
leave it. For steam or horsd car wihdows they are
finished in a variety of stj-les, maeing an elegant
finish forthecar windows and the only arrangement
ever introduced ttvat can never rail.
