In the Omaha weekly Bee, of the
20th nit., is a graphic description of the
scenes enacted in the joint convention
whin taking the sixteenth ballot the
last ballot preceding the one which re
sulted in the election of Gen. Van
Wyck. After reciting the joint pledge
made by the "field" that is by the
leaders and adherents of Dundy, Wea
rea. Mason, etc, as against Paddock
to stick to their candidates unfalter
ingly in that ballot, the 2?e.goes on to
eay:
"A thunder-clap in mid-winter would
hardly have caused greater surprise.
'We are sold out,' flashed across my
mind instantly. Four or five more
changes were announced rapidly in
succession, and a general stampede to
Paddock seemed imminent. The scene
at this crisis is indiscribable. Specta
tors in tho crowded galleries were
craning their necks to catch tho voiee
of the flopping members. The faces
of Paddock's stalwarts on tho floor;
and the monopoly audience in the gal
leries were beaming with joy. The
supporters of the field were pale with
rage at the trejichery of the Hoppers.
Hitchcock had bounded over the rail
ing which separates the pit from the
gallery, and in the most excited man
ner urjred members to jump into tho
Paddock boat. In the very midst of
this crisis, Mr. Holman, of Dakota
county, whose vote had been re
corded for Dundy, arose, and in a
stentorian voice requested that his
vote bo changed from Dundy to Van
Wyck. Almost simultaneously Church
Howe, in a loud voice, assured the
joint convention that this was "no
Paddock boom." Another member
followed Hotmail's example, and
changed from Dundy to VanWyck,
amid loud cheers, which Cams vainly
sought to suppress with his gavel.
Perfect order and quiet was restored.
Every member remained in his seat.
Hitchcock's powder had Hashed in the
pan. Daily's treacherous flop had only
raised Paddock from 30 to 48. It fail
ed to elect Paddock, and proved fatal
to Judge Dundy. Immediately after
the vote was announced, a recess was
taken till 4 p. m. When the news of
Daily's perfidious performance reach
ed Judge Dundy, ho was overwhelmed
with grief and indignation, which com
pletely prostrated him. He repudiated
Daily's act as an outrageous betrayal
of himself, and requested his friends
to vindicate his honor and redeem
themselves by joining in tho "field cau
cus," and standing by the nominee,
whoever he might be."
We reproduce the above, from the
pen of the editor of the Omaha Bee,
who has been a constant eulogist of
.Mr. Daily, and as constant a traducer
of Mr. Howe, from the moment those
t wo gentlemen entered upon their po
litical rivalry in this county hist fall.
The testimony of Mr. Rosawater, in
the above, while he cannot rise to the
magnanimity of avowing the full,
whole truth, that Church Howe, in
conjunction with his courageous old
chieftain, YanWyck. who, by their
consummate generalship, turned the
tide of the battle, and saved the day,
is yet corroborative of the accounts
given by others, of the stalwart firm
ness, cool courage, and honest purpose
of Mr. Howe to elect, if possible, or
go down with, if he must, the man for
whom ho cast his first and each suc
ceeding ballot. Mr. Eosewater says
that "Almost simultaneously, Church
Howe, in a loud voice, assured the
joint convention that this was 'no Pad
dock boom!'" The Bee, possibly, was
not aware that Mr. Howe had learned,
while the ballot was being taken, of
the anticipated treachery of Mr, Daily,
and had hurriedly prepared for the sim
ultaneous counter movement, which
nipped the treason in its bud. Such
was the fact, however. Xow. apropos
to all this, what, citizens of Nemaha,

has Church Howe done? "What is there
in this Senatorial business that may
benefit you and our whole people?
Through your representative, Church

VanWyck, we are assured, will do aiiy

boundary lines.
The YanWyck Eeception.-peeches, Etc.
The editor of The Advertiser had
the pleasure of being present at the
public reception given by Nebraska's
new Senator on last Thursday evening
at Nebraska City. The affair was
held in the capacious parlors and recep
tion rooms of the Grand Central Hotel,
and we noticed that the gentlemanly
proprietors of that house, .Messrs.
Cottrell and Howard, won the appro
bation of all by their unceasing exer
tions to make evorybody as comforta
ble as it was possible for so vast an as
semblage of ladies and gentlemen.
The ceremonies were delayed a few
moments awaiting the train from Ne
maha county containing about 140 of a
delegation. About D p. m. General and
Mrs. Yan Wyck took position in one
of the parlors, and did an immense
hand shaking. J. C. Watson, Esq. pres
ident of ceremoaies, did the presenting.
The introductions being gone through
with the new Senator, Mr. Watson
Judge Kinney, and Hon. Church
Howe took seats upon the stage erect
ed in the large dining hall, where the
speaking took place. Judge Kinney
being introduced delivered the speech
of welcome, after which General Van
Wyck, amidst greetings of enthusiastic
applause, stepped fo the front and read
his response, as follows:
For this renewed greeting accept my
heartfelt thanks. However devoted 1
may bo to your interests and the inter
est of Nebraska, I never can discharge
the obligation imposed by my election
to the highest position in your gift.
Grateful as 1 must bo to a generous
and confiding people in tho state, yet to
the people of the county of Otoe and
Nebraska City am I indebted beyond
measure, in making it possible that a
citizen of their own county should re
ceive this distinguished honor.
From the day of my election to the
constitutional convention until now it
Juts been cause for pride that, although
an ardent republican, I have been sup
ported, and several times elected, by
democratic votes. And in this, the
greatest and latest triumph, this which
is your triumph as well as mine, in the
decisive moment when by certain well
laid schemes, victory was Hearing Sen
ator Paddock's banner, a grand demo
crat, one of "tho noblest Romans of
them all," General Hollman, of Dekota,
the bosom friend of Judge Kinney,
sprang into the breach, changing his
vote from Judge Dundy to the candi
date of Otoe county, stayed the tide,
which resulted in the victory over
which wo are rejoicing this night.
It is a matter of mutual congratula
tions that in this election there are no
entangling alliances, no pledges except
those implied in generons gratitude, so
that in tho transfer from the senate
chamber of Nebraska to the senate
chamber of the United States, on my
entering upon that higher field of duty,
all species of property, all classes, all
sections, may bo alike respected, that
no one interest shall be promoted at
the sacrifice of others, but in the spirit
of justice and fair play, the right of all
may be conserved, believing that the
anatomy of tho body politic, like the
human body, teaches that it is to tho
injury of all the members that one
should thrive at the expense of many,
and that no limb can be injured with
out a shock to the on tire body.
Among the youngest, we aro by no
means the least of the states, having
already left our position at the foot of
the list and passed several of the older
sisters. When other decades shall have
gone, with tho impulse of our bound
we will have moved still further up
ward and onward.
If it be true that "things produce
what they contain," who daro prophesy
where the state will be in 1S90 and
then in 900?
Human destiny seems independent
of and above human control, some
thing beyond ourselves gives it first
life then extension. Among states
and nations how many more of wrecks
would have desolated the shore of time
if there was not in human crisis
"something even stronger than tho men
who appear to guide them the will
of tho event itself beyond that an
overruling impelling power.
A few years ago tho dark shadow of
human slavery moved by human hands
and gloom was Hearing the border of
this fair land the Avenger came and
drove it back, so that to-day by river
courso and open prairie the sun in his
course gladdens only the homes of free
men. Thus everywhere on the pathway of
nations how often have the people
builded better than they knew.
The great strength of this republic
is in the source of all power the peo
ple. The legislature and congress will
bo wise and great, as the people by
education and thought may be wise
and great the stream will seldom rise
beyond its source.
In the generous rivalry with older
states we are not handicapped with the
weight of old traditions and abuses or
the scars of excresences removed, but
as a young giant with clean limbs we
enter the race. In a measure we can
help to make it as wo will. If we
keep close to truth, right, and charity,
then hope will come as our guiding
star, and success beyond human cal
culations will be ours.
Poets tell 113 that clouds assume the
form of the country over which they
pass, so men will sometimes mould
themselves upon the event and epoch
over which they pass. Washington did
not create tho revolution he was not
its inspiration he only represented
and was inspired by it.
May we not hope that human

realization?
As the General sat down, there were
loud calls for Church Howe, who,
stepping forward, was introduced by
President Watson, as follows:
I have tho pleasure of introducing
to you a gentleman who has made a
soldier's record on tho battle-field, the
"Lion of Nemaha," and a man who, in
the political world, to use an expres
sion of the "boys," has made more
statesmen, and "set down" on more
men than any other one man Hon.
Church Howe.
On coming forward, the gentleman
received a perfect ovation. The cheers
were loud-and long, and it was some
minutes before he could proceed. When
quiet was once more restored, Mr. Howe
spoke, extemporaneously, as follows:
Mr. Chairman, and Fellow Citizens
of Otoe County: Last Saturday morn
ing, in the joint session of the Senate
and House of Representatives, I spoke
these words: "For six days this legis
lature has been in session for the elec
tion of a United States Senator. For
fifteen ballots I have cast my vote for
General Charles H. YanWyck, believ
ing him to bo the choice of tho people.
I desire always to represent the people
who elect me. and to do the bidding of
my constituents. I have just received
a delegation from Old Nemaha, and I
now desire to cast my vote for a gen
tleman with a national reputation, a
true statesman and a tried soldier;
one with the best interests of the State
at heart I ask you to record ray vote
for General' Charles II. VanWyck."
Long and continued applause.
To-night I rejoice that one hundred
and lifty of the first, of tho noblest,
the most loyal and best representative
men, have come from Old Nemaha by
special train, and have taken me by the
hand and said, "Well done, good and
faithful servant." This is very grati
fying to me. Let me say, also, that
these one hundred and fifty left behind
them a few just a few of the dead,
to bury the dead. Laughter and ap
plause. I rejoice with yoii, Mr. Chairman, to
meet, here my old comrade; he whom I
first met in 1S02, who, when his coun
try called upon him, took his life in his
hands and hurried to the defense of tho
old flag. It was on tho battle-lleld of
Williamsburg that I flrst made his ac
quaintance; that I first learned of the
noble heart and true bravery of Gen.
C. II. VanWyck. Through many of
the battles of the Potomac wo went
together. Four years ago I met him
again, as a fellow member, in the State
Senate. AVe worked together some
times not so unanimously, however
laughter but generally managed to
bring us right side up at the round up.
Laughter.
Then again, I said, "Gen. YanWyck
cau represent the people of Nebraska
better than any other man in the
State."
I rejoice with you, my friends, be
cause I believe Gen. YanWyck to have
the true interests of the State at heart.
His experience has been such that, to
night, I know he will have more inter
est in building up the interests of the
State than in tearing them down. I
believe experience has taught him to
know that wo desire immigration to
our State; that we desire a flow of cap
ital to the State, and that, while we are
mainly an agricultural State, he will
not fail to foster the manufacturing
and commercial interests of tho State.
For these reasons, I congratulate the
people of Otoe county, and of Nebras
ka, on their selection of him for Unit
ed States Senator.
After the battle was over, and after
tho result had been declared by the
President of the Senate, an attempt
was made to defeat the legality of the
election and expressed will of the leg
islature. Papers were prepared to take
out an injunction, to prevent the Gov
ernor from delivering the certificate of
election to the Senator. Let mo say,
in behalf of the "Roy Governor," that
he was willing to abide by the decision
of the legislature. He was satisfied
with their action, and to-day he has
sent Gen.Dilworth, attorney general of
this State, here, who to-night delivered
to Gen. YanWyck his certificate of
election. Applause.
One thing more, to the citizens of
Otoe county. You owe much to the
sterling loyalty of your delegation.
Never forget their unswerving fidelity.
If there is anything to be proud of, it
is when those you send stand shoulder
to shoulder to do your will. All dele
gations were not so fortunate as that
you sent to represent you, Applause.
and I say again, don't you forget that
gallant little band that stood up so
firmly, with no second choice, and said,
we will cany out your wishes, or go
home and explain why we did not
And now, my old comrade, taking
tho General by the hand in conclu
sion, I desire to say that I believe you
know the wants of Nebraska; I be
lieve you to be honest; I believe you
will do your duty, and that the people
of Nebraska will never regret making
you their Smator. God bless you,
Prolonged applause.
When Hon. Church IIowo rose to
vote all oyes were on him, IIowo re
quested permission to speak a few
words before voting, which being grant
ed ho said, (in substance) Mr. President:
Hitherto I have cast my vote for Gen

The Omaha Herald, and such of the
Democracy who post themselves up
daily from the trash found in that un

to say about Gen. Van Wyck being a
carpetbagger, and allege that he has
now received what be came to the
State to get. The following brief
sketch of the General's life at once
gives the lie to the Herald and those
who repeat after it, and shows that

BIOGRAPHICAL.
General C. H. Van Wyck, in boyhood,
worked upon his father's farm in New
York, and afterward graduated at
Rutger's College, New Jersey. He
adopted the profession of law, and very
soon after his admission to the bar was
elected and re-elected District Attorney.
In 1858 he was first elected to Congress
from New York by a majority of 1,200,
in a district which at that time had a
Democratic majority of over 1,200.
In 1S00 he was re-elected to Congress,
and entered the army in 1S61 and re
mained to tho close, serving in the
Army of the Potomac and the Depart
ment of the South. In 1866 he was
again elected to Congress from New
York and re-elected in 1868. Over
twenty years ago General Van Wyck,
with some colonists from Orange
county, N. Y. came to Nebraska. At
Davenport, Iowa, an outfit was pur
chased, and a tedious overland joume'
made through Iowa. The colony locat
ed just across the Missouri River, near
the now flourishing town of Nebraska
City. Here, on a beautiful roll of land
General Yan Wyck selected a building
site, and marked the precise spot where,
sixteen years later, he built his home.
It was after the location of his friends
and neighbors from New York on Ne
braska soil that General Van Wyck
was elected the fourth time from a
New York district to Congress. During
this latter service in Congress he was
the stanch friend of Nebraska, and in
one especial case, by vote, speech, and
personal solicitation, rendered Omaha
the service of aiding to secure au ap
propriation for the handsome govern
ment building on Fifteenth street.
During thia term of General Van
Wyck's service in Congress ho was
often called tho "other member from
Nebraska."
Shortly after tho close of his last
term in Congress, General Yan Wyck
removed to Nebraska, erected a -house
on the spot selected sixteen years be
fore, and enlarged a farm which he had
commenced.so long ago to develop with
an oldfashioned breaking plow, pro
pelled by six voke of oxen. This fann,
of over 800 acres, is now one of the
most beautiful in the Stale. General
Van Wyck was a member of tho con
stitutional convention of 1875, and has
since been three times elected to the
State Senate, and has there earned the
distinction of inaugurating numerous
and the most valuble reforms in the
public service of theState.
