A shooting affray took place the
other day in the office of the Nation
al Republican, at Washington City,
between A. M. Solteld, jr., clerk of
the senate committee on railroads,
and Clarence Barton, managing edi
tor of the Republican. The former
was probably fatally shot in. the
back of the neck, and the latter also
shot twice, once in the neck and in
the side, but not fatally. The trouble
between them is of long standing,
and the recent publications which
Solteldo thought Barton controlled
as editor, and in which- he was mis
taken. The modern gladiators Sullivan
and Ryan met at Mississippi City
and tested their skill and strength in
the ring. During the nine rounds
Ryan was knocked down by Sulli

Sullivan was thrown down two
times by Ryan. On the ninth round
Ryan failed to "come to time," and
the fight was declared in favor of
Sullivan. It is claimed that Ryan
was in no condition for the conflict.
It is said that Ryan's defeat cost the
Trojans $10,000 to $15,000. When
the future historian notes these lines
as indicative of the brutish nature of
man, let him also read that these
manifestations are condemned by the
great body of onr people.

tions only two times. Rosencrana's
army after thebattleLofChicamaugP,

The annual meeting of the Ne
braska Woman's Suffrage Associa
tion held at Lincoln on the 8th, 9th
and 10th inst., was a gathering of the
representative women of the state on
purely a matter of business, which
was attended to in a business way.
New officers of the association were
to elect for the coming year which
resulted in the choice of the follow
ing persons: Mrs. Ada M. Bitten-
'bender, president; Mrs. Clara B.
Colby, vice president at large ; Mrs.
Belle Bigelow of Genoa, recording
secretary; Mrs. McDonnell, corres
ponding secretary and Mrs. Russell
treasurer. Mrs. H. S. Brooks of.
Omaha, chairman of the executive
committee, Hon. E. M. Correll, Mrs.
Sosie Fifield, G. B. Skinner, Rev. J.
McNamara and Mrs. J. F. Holmes
constitute the other members of the
executive cqmmittee. Vice presi
dents were then elected for the judi
cial districts as follows : First judi
cial district, Mrs. B. J. Thompson ;
second, Mrs. Dr. R. M. Wood ; third,
Mrs. O. C. Dinsmoor ; fourth, Mrs.
Ada Van Pelt ; fifth, Mrs. S. H. Syd
enham. Mrs. Dinsmoor of Omaha
offered the following, which was
adopted :
Whereas, The educational inter
ests of the state are and should be o
paramount importance to women,
therefore,
Resolved, That the Nebraska wo
man suffrage association in annual
convention assembled recommend
and urge that all women qualified to
vote at school elections exercise
their right to its fullest extent at the
comiug spring election.
Dr. Bliss and his associates have
seen fit to make a statement of their
services in the Garfield case, without
making a definite bill, leaving it to
tbe committee in charge to say what
those services shall be worth. This
brings the matter under discussion
by the public. It occurs to us to say
that the doctors should have set forth
their bill as in ordinary cases, mak
ing all reasonable allowance for their
time, trouble, loss of practice, anx
iety, &c. If they had even placed
their compensation at two or three
times that in ordinary cases, we ap
prehend that the general public
would not make serious objection,
but as it is, their action is subject to
various constructions or miscon
structions. As a bnsiness proposi
tion, don't they know what their
services were actually worth? Do
they think that the committee is bet
ter able to judge than they are? Are
they afraid that some might raise the
question of malpractice, and prove
that what they did was injurious
rather than beneficial?. Or, on the
other band, have they an exalted
notion of the value of their services,
and are too modest to say just what
they were worth ? Do they imagine
that respect and love for the dead
president will impel the people to
pay a sentimeutal price for their
services, in addition to what they
would ordinarily be worth ?
It would seem that the managing
physician apprehends that he can, in
this way, secure the largest pay, and
have tbe least adverse criticism but
it is not "business," unless, indeed,
be has some assurance from the com
mittee, or some means of "making
assurance doubly sure," in either or
any of which cases, the plain, right
way has not been considered.
Many good American citizens sus
pect this man of unprofessional deeds
in the ex-president's illness, and this
recent act will lead these to believe
that there is jobbery iu these bills.
