The influence of evil in high places is being combated with greater force at this time than ever before in the world's history. The oniy thing America has to fear is America- Corruption in oflice does more than rob the people of their rights , it contami nates the whole community and makes for the popularity of evil. Take Omaha for instance ; its government has been a govern ment of tliutrs ever since Frank Moorcs was first made mayor. Such men as Tom Dcnnison the notorious gambler , Vic Walker the negro politician , and I'at Crowe the kidnapper , have been the real government' The inlltt- i nee of such men has tended to corrupt the entire city govern ment. I'at Crowe shot a police man in Omaha so that for days his life hung by a thread , an Omaha jury found h i in not guilty. I'at Crowe stole the child of Kdward Cudahy , took him at night to a lonely forest and demanded by letter $25,000 , of the frantic parentsorhe would destro } ' the sight of the child. Rather than submit his child to such a diabolical maiming the father left the money at the point designated by Crowe. Crowe admitted the commission of the horrible crime. He wrote a letter to a priest confessing his participation in the kidnapping. Thirty witnesses in the Douglas county district court last week testified against him ; the letter in his own writing was admitted in evidence and shown to the jury. Crowe did not go on the stand , he did not deny the crime nor deny the authorship of the letter. The jury found him not guilty. Crowe is a hero in Omaha , ac cording to its standard he has made good. A precedent has been set for the other thugs to steal children of wealthy parents and extort money from them. We congratulate Omaha on the re sult of its vicious citv govern ment. All hail Pat Crowe , the hero of the hour , one of Omaha's most distinguished citizen. If Pat Crowe had been tried in Rich- ardssn county before the jury of the last term of court he would have received a jolt that would hold him for a long time , law and order would have been vindi cated and the necessity for mob law would not prevail. The new board of regents was organized at Lincoln last week by the selection of Mr. Ernst as pres ident. V. G. Lyford of this city and Fred Abbott of Columbus were duly qualified as members , The wisdom of local republicans in selecting Mr. Lyford for thu place was demonstrated at the first meeting. Many persona matters came before the board a the instance of men with axes tc grind but the Kichardson coun ty member kept clear of all sucl matters and voted with the singU idea of the university's welfare In another column appears ai article on the proper selection o seed corn to which we call th attention of our farmer reader * Farming on the high price Ian of .Richardson county has becotu a serious problem that can I solved only by the most scientif and systematic methods.
