DARE THEY.
Dare any new?papcr in the State,
that approve! of acting Gov. James
attempt to prorogue the House of Rep
resentatives, pay that Lis attempt was
valid and legal? If they are afraid to
attempt a vindication of the legality of
the 3etion,,ho7F do they expect to en
dorse the act iteelf acd at the eanie time
ha treated as honest and truthfull jour
nal?, entitled to tho respect and confi
dence of the peop!e. We venture the
prodirtion that there is not a paper in
thid State foolhardy enough to come
out an-4 say that the rocssesj of -dr.
James was a legal and valid adjourn
ment of the House of Representatives.
Whenever a paper can be found to do
this we will engage to show to the mind
of every intelligent man that its position
is fiiilacioD?, end is taken either through
ignorance orn desire to deceive. Where
is the paper that dare attempt it.

The people of Nebraska City call a
public meeting for tho purpose of doing
something to help business in that p'aco,
and that very truthful (?) and reliable (?)
journal, the Omaha Hcrahl, comes out
in a doublelcadcd leader "Inauguration
of too People's Movement in Ne
braska City," and proceeds to treat
it as a grand uprising of the
poople to overthrow existing po
litical parties. The evident intention is
to deceive people in other portions of
the State, and induce them to organize
a "people's movement" on the strength
of the assumed action in Otoo. That is
rather "thin," Dr. Tha people aro not
entirely trevoid of sene and rea;on.

Oil, WHAT IIOXU1Y.
Everybody has heard of the fellow
tvho joined the crowd and tliouted "ftop
thitf," at the top of his voice. Well,
there are several persons in our State
who have been crying "etop thief" for
the past year or more, and all that is re
quired to bring them to light in their
true character is a little time. "The mills
of the go3s grind slowly, but exceeding-
small," and they have already com
menced the grinding process on some of
the "stop thief fdlowa of Nebraska.
Representative Gaiey publishes a card

iey would support a resolution whereby
the Statesman ofiice could secure the in
cidental printing of the session. A little
more timo will bring others of these
honesty screcchers to the surface in the
same unenviable light.
"EXIItA KXKt'L'TIVK.
Our very noted acting Governor,,
whom Mr. Thomas eulogises as having
performed "his oflioial duties in a
straightforward and upright manner,"
and as "fully meeting the expectation
of the people" has seen fit to override
the will of the Courts and the jury by
pardoniug Dr. Stoddard, the notorious
aloi'tionist of Omaha, before he liad
hardly had a .taste of prison life. And
what is wor-t of all, we learn from a ro
liable source that the pardon has been
in operation for the pa.st two weeks,
although the 27th was the date set for
hearing and considering the application
for pardon. We hope for the credit of
the State this is not to, but we have it
from a source which we cannot doubt
If this -ic'.ion i not "extra Executive
we are at a los3 to know hat to term
it. It is claimed by tome that Stoddard's
wa.T not an aggravated case, but it was
sufficiently aggravated that Eleven of the
twelve jurymen before whom in was tried
were in favor of a three years sentence,
while a single man stuck for one year,
which was finally agreed upon.

Miller and Morton are now ready to
carry out that oft repeated threat, made
by Morton, that when the Democratic
party of Nebraska failed to serve him
and his purposes, then he was read to
break it up. In the "new order" Miller
is to be the chl -f adviser, aud will prob
ably seek another viit to the "burnt dis
trict" in ccaipany with Senator Hitch
cock, while Morton will make these Otoe
county Democrats, who refused to obey
him under the old party rule, dance a
hornpipe whilo he furni.-.hes the musk.

have a lively time in whipping in su.h
free thinkers as Thorn, Dillon, Hawhe,
CV.lh 'Un, ar.i a h;st of others whom we
could name in O:oe county. Miller bus
tried long and faithfully to forcj the De
mocrats of Nebraska to do his bidding,
and now that he is fuily convinced that
hecanuot accomplish this result, has de
termined to try a i-ot? dodge, and will
break up the parry and force them to
ibllow his leadership iu the new deal
which is intended to make himself and
Morton the great moguls of the State.

We copy the following dispatcher
from the Blair Times as fair samples of
the manner in which . a certain class of
correspondents attempted to (and actu
ally did) create public opinion du:ing
the recent session of the Legislature:
Liscoln, January 2I'd, 1S71.
The people here are arming for self
protection. They are determined to dis
burse the rump Legislature and Senate
at all hazards. Ji?l Senatorial and Rep
resentative districts prepare coffins for
their revolutionary members. Give us
Salt ! or give us death !
To the Tiuks :
Lincoln, January 24th.
The respectable citizens here are gath
ering at the Capitol this morning and
making preparations to trout the rump
senate to a coat of tar and feathers.
Ilou.-e ditto. Both Houses are beastly
drunk.
We know nothing as to who is respon
sible for the above, neither do we care to
know. He is a fair specimen of the
hireling correspondents of the Omaha
Herald and JStpuLlican with the excep
tion of J. A. MacMurphy ("Tip Top"),
who is entitled to iha thanks of the hon
est citizens of the State for the fairness
with which ho spoke of public matters
and public men while he acted as corre
spondent cf tho Omaha Republican.
AiJe from him, the men who wrote let
ters and telegraphed to the Omaha pa
pers during the rect-nt session were ir
responsible young men, who had neither
reputation nor honor to lose, and who
eiomed to act on the belief, that the
greater number of opprobio us epithets
they could u-c and the more dastardly
and villainous accusations they could
make, the nearer they would come to
pleasing their masters aud earning the
money which was paid them for such
villainous work.
The members of the Legislature were
ju-stly entitled to severe cen.-ure for some
of their act, but they were also entiled
to some measure of justice. With all
their faults they were immeasurably bet
ter men than those who sat there day
after day and sent such villainous dis
patches as the above, which did not con
tain a single element of tm;L or manly
justice. Will the men who were pres
ent at the capital on the 23d and 24th
sit quiet and allow such dispatches as the
above to be published without attempt
ing to do justice to the men against
whom they are aimed? . So far as we
know not fipgle iatere;t in common
with these men, neither person J nor po
litical, while wo have reasons of the
storngest kind for opposing very many of
them and wishing to f e th -m on the 'un
derside" in the political struggle; yet we
cannot so far forretthe duties we owe to
them as men as to refuse to raise a
voice in correcting some of the slanders
which have been heaped npou them by
hireling correspondents cf a venal and
malicious press. We were at tho capi
tal on the 24th, and we know whereof
we speak. We defy any man to name
a single occurrence on that day that
could possibly be distorted into anything
disorderly or unbecoming the dignity of
any legislative body, or the peoule as
sembled, if wo except the acts cf the
aforesaid correspondents, and on this
point we appeal to the honesty of even
the bitterest enemies of this nuch ma
ligned (yet deserving censure) legislative
body.
THE VoTiL'E Ol' TI1E PHES3.
Tho unanimous voice of the Republi
can press of Nebraska, so far as ex
pressed, is in favor of more thorough
party linos in futnre than during the
past few years, believing this to be the
true solution of tha present political
muddle in this State. Tho Fremont
Tribune says :
The "njuddV of our Legislature can
hardly be said to be a Democratic or
Republican affair it is rather honest
men against plunderers and disorgani
zes. Both political parties furnish men
for each wing but the bulk of the
shameless outfit is made upof the "peo
ple 8 ticket men, or those who were
nomiuatcd on one ticket and received a
lare support of thi oppositon part3
eithtr through unpopularity oi j arty
candidate or local feeling, l'rom the
shameful action of this class of men our
State is learning a severe lesson, and in
future we shall hear of less "bulling.
scratching and trading" and'sca a square
stand-up for party men.

party must stand slnl or laM on the

ViSIICII?
Tho O
ha Herald scys it "bagged in
vain to huva party organizations main
taiuel iu the Legislature after the elec
tion of Davil Butler to the Govcrnor
thip." Was the Herald right then, or
6 it right now, when it advocates tho dis-
bauding of all parties except the oue of
which Dr. Miller aspires to be the charn
I'ion and leader. Wc believed at the
tima above alluded to that the Herald
was right, and we f till believe it. If it
wa riht then, it is evidently wrong
now. It would fc-eeai that there is a vein
of vindictiveness somewhere in tha Her
ald management and that it now desires
like a spoiled boy to break up all party
organizations, even including its "never
changing Democ acy" because the
Democrats of the Stat'3 refused to fol
low its dictation a year ago. Either this,
or tha Herald is insincere in it declara
tions, and only desires to play another

Akecdote or Goethe Goethe r.as,
!bra tinse, manag-r of an amateur thea
tre at Weimar. Once, when the "Jeal
ous liujbaud" was to L-3 perilrmed, tha
gentleman who was to act the loer was
suddenly taken ill. A Saxon captain
gooi-naturcaly undertook to play the
part, although he confessed he had but
little .experience in such mitters. llo
went through tho rehearsals very decent
ly, and there wrs little doubt but that,
with thjs help of a food prompter, all
would go cu well. But when the poor
captain iictually appeared before the au
dience hs seemed to los;e ali - memory;
still he continued to halt on till the jeal
ous husband was to rush in and tab
him. At thi unlucky moment hs for
got his catchword aud continued ham
ming for several minutes while the furi
ous husband was siattding between the
side scenes with uplifted dagger, ready
to strike. The captain was about to be
gin his part afie-h, catchwords and all,
when, on the advice cf Goethe, the hus
band rushed in and with one desperate
lunge thought to s.lencc him. Not so;
the c iptaiu stood like a wall It was to
no purpose that his adversary o- treated
him, in a low vi ice, to fall and die. "I
have not got the catchword, ' was the in
variable rep y. At la-t, Goethe, quite
out of patience, called from behind the
t-cenes: "Stab him in the back if he
won't I all we mu-t get til of him at all
events." Upon this the hu-band, who
had lost all prescence of mind, cried with
a voic of thunder, "Die villain !" and
gave him at the same time such a blow
in thr t?ide that the captain, unprepared
for this attack in the fhnk, actually fell
down from the shock, upon which Goethe
fearing his resuscitation, instantly sent in
uriiH stout servants with order to carry
fiiO Ou, dead or alive, by main force.

Stokes was arragined to plead in the
Court of Oyer and Terminer this morn

intended to move to quash the indict
ment; that the grand jury had been giv
en the case before the coroner's jury had
given their verdict, and the coroner had
kept back tho fact as to whether the de
ceased was armed, and otherwise to exer
cise authority contrary to the State in its
anxiety to obtain a murderous verdict.
Tho papers wera clandestinely trans
ferred to the grand jury; the coroner,
too, violating his previous promise,,
placed upon the jury a lawyer named
Morsel B. Field, whose motives were
prejudiced. Graham olludad to the part
taken by cx-Judge Fullerton in obtain
ing tho indictmeut anin-t Strikes, sav
ing Fullerton became acqua nted with
ail of Stoke'e piivate affairs as his coun
sel, and then, Stokes refu-ing to pay
him an erroneous counsel fee of five
thousand dollars, sued him, subsequent
ly u-ing hia knowledge as his former
counsel to secure an indictment again-t

before the court by Graham in shape of
afrlduvits.
District Attorney Garver stated that
he did i propose to put in contradicto
ry affidavits. Graham then ajkei the
quashing of the indictment on the
ground that the sitting or the two grand
juries was unconstitutional; that the pre
sentment should be sent bofjro another
grand jury after the 1st ol February.
The District Attorney replied to Gra
ham, and argued that nothing had been
iilegaliy dene in the wan nut quashing
the indict merit. Ha referred to the Stv

be soily on personal consido:ation.

Anecdotk op IIandkl. Handel was
ono of tho most humorous rf mortals,
and at the same time one of the mo.-t
irritable. His best jokes were perpetra
ted ficqucntly during his most violent
bursts of passion.
Having oceaeion to bring out one of
his best oratorios in a provincial town of
England, he began to look about for such
materiel to complete his orchestra aud
chorus a the place might afford. One
and another wa r- commended, as usual,
as being a splendid singer, a great play
er, and so on. After a while, such an
were collectable were gatheted together
in a room, and after preliminaries Hand
el made his appearance, puffing, both
arms full cf manuscripts. "Gentlemen "
qnoth he, 'you a 1 read manuscripts?"
"Yes, yes," responded from nil ? arts of
the room. "We play in church," added
an old man behind a violi leello. "Very
well, blay di," said Ilanic! distributing
tbo parts.
This done, and a few explanations de
livered, Handel retired to a distant art
of the room to onjoy tha effect. The
stuuiiiling, fumbling, aud blundering
tharnsued is said to have been inde
scribable. Handel's sensitive ear and
impetuous spir.t could oot brook the in
sult, and clapping hi hands to his ears
he ran to the old gentleman of the vio
lincello, and shaking his wrist furiou ly
at the terrified man and the instrument
said : "You blay in the church ! ve;y
well you may blay in do church for we
read, de Lord is long salTering, of loving
kindness, forgiving inixuity, tra sg-es-sion
and sin; you shall blay in de church,
but you shall not blay for me!" an!
snatching together bis munuscript he
rnshed cut of the room, leaving his
astonished performer to draw their own
conclucions.
The Omaha Herald has
louble
headed leader iu which it broaches the
extremely original idea, that the way to
do it next fall, is for the Democracy to
take in the sore-headed Republican- and
march on to victory.
ft- i i
tne troub.e is
that under the JlerahF lead, on'y a cor
poiai's guard can be trot'.ed out of the
Democracy itself.
We'll give the Herald all th fellows
who are too pure to be Republican r.y
longer, and then beat any ticket the JLr
aid faction and tha sore-heads can get
up, by a larger majority than was ever
given in tbo State up to date. Lincoln
Journal.
An economical Towan, who had a toothy
acln determined to remove his tooth in
tht Indian Fashion. Accordingly he bent
cown a sappling iu the woods, Ly down
himself, and attached a stuut coid to his
tooih and the sappling. Then he touched
the spring, and the next thing he knew
he had jumped over a grove of about
torty small trees, and was trying to get
out of a small pond that he happened
to alight in.
