John Sheedt, a wealthy citizen of
Lincoln, was called to his door Sunday
evening about 8 o'clock, whereupon
gome one struck him with a steel rod
covered ,with leather a penitentiary
cane. Sheedy fired five shots at the
man, who dropped the cane and fled.
Sheedy was shot at about five weeks

Mr. Sheedy has died of his injuries.
A dispatch from Berlin under date of
Jnnuarv 6. savs: "A snowstorm phe
nomenal in its severity prevails through
out North Germany. Reports from
various sections are to the effect that
the railroads are blocked on all the
northern lines, and that in many in
stances the trains are embedded in the
snow, causing considerable suffering to
those who have been forced to travel
during the storm."
Thayer held on because he said he
had taken the oath to uphold the con
stitution and the laws, until his succes
sor was elected and qualified, and there
fore could not consent to yield the omce
to an alien, who was ineligible to oc
cupy it. Powers, it is said, took the
oath of office, to be ready for any emer
gency, and Boyd is recognized by the
other state officers elect, as governor,
de facto, at least, if not dejure.

Senator Pat. Ford's maiden speech
seems destined to be carried down to
future times. When in tho late melee at
Lincoln, a man asked for recognition as
a prohibitionist, Pat 6aid, "give the lone
fisherman a chance, be dad."
If there is anything at all to be de
duced from the signs of the times it is
that the people are tired of political
bosses they wish their own affairs to be
managed in their own interests, which
is likewise good statesmanship.
If it be right that the majority should
rule, and we have always been taught
that it is, it cannot be wrong for the
senate to adopt a rule to enable the ma
jority to prevent debate going on in
definitely upon any measure objected to
by the minority.

A farmers' convention at Fairbury,
Dl., has organized a new agricultural
society to promote the financial, moral,
social, educational and other interests
of the farmers. It is intended to make
the organization-a power in politics.
The organizers are somewhat dissatis

stated.
Representatives of over a hundred
fcmilies living in the Cloyne district
have earnestly begged the authorities
for assistance. For some time past they

which the poor people of some portions
of Ireland, are plunged.
Homer T. Hogsett, formerly of Ne

The recommendations of Governor
Campbell, of Ohio, include a federal
plan of government for cities, based upon
state organization, with the privilege of
chaiiLMUL' every twenty years, and that
an amendment to the constitution per
mitting this form of government be
submitted to the people; also a primary
election law, and a depository system
for city and county funds, so that money
will not accumulate in the treasury.
Tariff Picture.
The McKinley bill was signed on the
1st of October, 1890, the first day of the
last quarter of the year. Sheffield, Eng
land's great cutlery manufacturing cen
ter, had exported 74,000
worth of cutlery during the third quar
ter of the year. Tho McKinley bill
knocked Sheffield's cutlery exports in
the last quarter of t he year to JE28,000,
thus transfering S224,.."4 worth of trade
to this country. New York Press.
Tf anybody thinks or affects to think
that the farmers of Nebraska are anar
chists, thev are very mnch mistaken.
It is plainly evident that they have not
as yet developed an experienced leader,
and they have made 6ome mistakes, in
policy, that don't look well, but they
ran be depended on for substantial jus
tice. I Boyd and the others shall be
found entitled to office, we believe the
farmer legislature will gracefully yield,
.ut it is evident that they don't take
kindly to the notion of declaring persons
eiecteu mat tuey
been.

Good money, and plenty of it, with
which to transact the business of the
country, is the theory forour law-makers
to act upon, whenever the financial ques
tion comes up before them. All the dol
lars issued should have an equal ability
to discharge debt, and be receivable by
government as well as by citizens. The
measure of values must not be like the
scales of the rascally dealer that were
readily adjusted to weigh "heavy" when
he was selling, and "light" when he was
purchasing. All that the American citi
zen asks is a fair field and an equal
chance.
Those who were 60 certain only two
months ago that the protection given to
tin plate by the McKinley bill would
never be of any practical benefit to the
United States, and that no tin plate
would ever be manufactured in this
country had a big dish of crow for their
New Year's dinner, for only a few days
before that time, the first shipment of
American tin plate was put upon the
market by the Pittsburg mills, and be
fore the nr-xt New Year rolls around, it
is believed, that the mills now in process
of erection at Brooklyn, St. Louis, Bal
timore and other places will supply
every sheet of tin plate used in this
country, and that a new and great in
dustry, hitherto monopolized by Eur
ope, will have been established in Amer
ica, and profitable employment given to
thousands of men who would otherwise
be without it.
Tariff Claw.
We are glad to see our tariff class
taking such an interest in the subject.
Gentlemen, you will please keep your
places while we present the following
TARIFF riCTCRES.
New York Press: This is why protec
tion brought down the prico of steel
rails from 6.50
Let It be Made Qafekly.
Our mugwumpian and democratic
friends who desire that the bloody shirt
shall be forever buried are requested to
read these extracts from the Appeal-
Avalanche, of Memphis, Tenn.:
"The response of the South to the
clothure resolution should be an appeal
n-mo Thara ia A limit to the D3-
tience of freemen. That hunt is reached
when political injustice trenches upon
the sanctity of the home, makes mockery
of loyalty to country, challenges the
patriotic aspintuuuB jw:, -
the truth and proclaims an end of
libertv.
Force should meet force. Toleration
begets confidence in the mind of the
tvrant. To yield an inch is to give an
ell. This is history. The hand or tne
despot is onlv staved when his subjects
rise in the might of mass. Necessity
knows no law. Self-preservation jus
tifies any remedy."
Double leaded in the original, they
have a sort of "before-the-war" sound, a
sound as of the old times in which Jef
ferson Davis and Yancey and Toombs
and others were engaged in the business
of firing the Southern heart. The Ap-nnl-Avalanche
is not for burying the
bloody shirt until the old slave-holders'
regime is re-established.
The violent harangue of the Southern
newspapers is worthy of consideration.
Let us ask: What is the immediate
cause of it? It answers for itself : "The
clothure resolution."
But what is the clothure resolution?
Simply a resolution of the senate to do
that which is done by nearly every leg
islative body in the world: namely, to
prevent the obstructive tactics of a
minority by enforcement of "the pre
vious question" whenever it is plain to
the majority that the question at issue
has been fully debated, and that all
further pretenses of debate are for ob
struction only.
What is the question at issue in re
gard to which the obstructive policy of
the democratic minority has become so
offensive as to wear out the patience of
that singularly peaceful body, the re
publican majority in thesenate?
The national election law, commonly
called the force bill.
Why is it necessary to pass a national
election law?
Because in nearly every state lately in
rebellion the negro vote is suppressed
by force or fraud.
How does it come lo pass that the
negro has a vote?
By the solemn act of the nation,
speaking through the legislatures of all
the states and afterwards through both
houses of congress.
Did the legislatures of the states
lately in reliellion confirm the constitu
tional amendment by which the negro
was endowed with a right to vote?
They did.
Under what circumstances did they do
Under these: They had attempted to
secede from the union of states; they
had made war in pursuance of this at
tempt. They had been conquered by
force of arms. They had made "uncon
ditional surrender." Surrendering un
conditionally, they were placed for a
while under military rule, but were
graciously restored to membership in the
union by their conquerers niion ratifica
tion of certain amendments to the con
stitution, of which amendments one was
the clause giving the negro the right to
vote.
So that the Appeal-Avalanche con
templates a new act of secession, a new
act of rebellion. Let its readers try it.

There is no subject of legislation that is

and if there is any valuable suggestion
that can be put into practical operation,
the people will hail it with gladness.
There is not so great a public demand as
there ought to be for a more thorough,
practical edncation, an industrial course,
along with the sciences. These are of
course more practical in the larger towns
and cities, where they have taken quite
a hold upon the public regard, and de

making pupils more apt in the arts of
civilization, it tends to develop tenden

and in these ways would be worth

From oar regular correspondent.
The reduction of the public debt, in
December was slightly in excess of $11,-
000,000 which means just that much
money put into active circulation in
addition to the ordinary expenditures of
the government.
The idea of fractional paper currency
has again been brought to the front by
Representative Kelly, of Kansas, who
has introduced a bill in the house di
recting the secretary of the treasury to
print 850,000,000 of it in bills of 5, 10, 25
and 50 cents, the same to be legal tender
for all debts for any sum not exceeding
ten dollars.
Associate Justice Brown, the new
member of the United States supreme
court took his seat today in the presence
of a distinguished audience, comprising
most of the legal talent of the house
and senate, besides a large number of
the country's most eminent lawyers.
He presented a most striking appear
ance with his strong cleanly shaved face
and well -shaped head which made him
Innk tn lta everv inch a iudire and the
peer of his colleagues who form what
has been called the "greatest judicial
body in the world."
The friends of the shipping bill will
endeavor to keep that measure before
the house this week until it is disposed
of. but it is not certain that they can
succeed as Mr. Cannon and a strong
following will insist upon discing of
some of the appropriation bills, lhe
house may find its business blocked at
any time owing to its not having a quo
rum of republicans present, although
the republican leaders are confident that
thev can get a quorum of republicans
here at any time that it becomes nec
essary. The democrats are trying to bluff the
republicans by claiming that they have
no objections to an extra session oi con
gress, when the truth is that it is the
one outcome of the present session that
they fear most, and this fear will proba
bly prove a powerful factor in restrain -

On the 7tb, Oen. Schofield sent the
following telegram from Washington to
Gen. Miles: "You are hereby author
ized under the existing orders of the
president to assign Captain Ewers of the
Fifth infantry, Captain Lee of the Ninth
infantry, Captain Earnest of the Eighth
infantry, and Captain Pierce of the First
infantry, to take charge of the Indians
of the several Sioux and Cheyenne
agencies to exercise over them such mil
itary supervision and control as in your
judgment is necessary without interfer
ing unnecessarily with the administra
tion of the Indian bureau under the
regulations and instructions received by
them from the interior department."
People of Hay Springs are excited
over the disappearance of Captain Klin
smith. He left Hay Springs to join bis
company on the Beaver, and has not
since been beard from. Hay Springs is
the most exposed of any of the towns,
and there are only 500 soldiers to guard
a strip of 30 miles, within which dis
tance there are 2,000 hostile Indiana
A telegram fromW. F.Cody, dated
Pine Ridge, S. D., Jan. 10th, euys:
"Governor John M. Thayer: Kicking
Bear and Short Bull with hoetiles are
on the way to the agency. They are ex
pected to surrender tomorrow. General
Miles .was pleased with the promptness
of the Nebraska troops and says they
have done mnch to quiet the fears of the
settlers."
A train out of Rushville Friday night
carried thirty mothers with babes in
their nrms, ljesides other children. De
serted ranches are pillaged by bad char
acters, who are plentiful, and those who
have left their ranches will find little at
home when they return.
General Miles is credited as saying
that the trouble will be settled in a very
few days, either by a full surrender of
the hostiles or the bloodiest battle of
Indian history, with the chances in favor
of a peaceful settlement.
The following incident presents a pic--J
ture of current events at the seat of war,
and comes from Gordon: "MartDarrah,
wife and children have arrived from near
the reservation, where they had been
holding down a claim. When they
struck here they had not even enough
to feed them over night. A young man
named Wilson from Company 11 hap
pened along and recognized them as
people from near his home. He asked
them where they were going and what
they were going to do. Darrah said if
they could only get to his wife's folks
they would be all right for the winter.
Wilson inquired the amount it would
take, which was $35. Wilson then gave
them the money and they left for Teka
mah last night It was worth more than
that to see the smile on that mother's
face and those of the children dance
with joy and three rousing oheers were
given Wilson."
