MONTE ON THE RAIL
The Gambler. Operating on the
Chicago and Sock Island
Railway.
Since the three-card monte men
have been driven out of town, they
have sought other fields where they
can commit their depredations on
the pocket-books of the unwary
and unsophisticated traveler. A
portion of the Omaha gang seems
to have captured, as it were, the
Chicago and Rock Island railway,
and are now bolcly operating on
both ends of the line, without any
interference on the part of the rail
road officials or employes, who must
be aware of this deplorable state of
affairs. If they are not, they ought
to be, if they are not deaf and blind.
Hardly a day passes but what one
or more travelers land in Omaha
dead-broke, having been robbed out
of their money by these birds of
prey on this railroad.
Friday there arrived he:e
three men who had been taken In
and done for. One man, who was
en route to California, had to sell
his through ticket to the Uniqn
Pacific general ticket agent, Mr.
Kimball, and return home, almost
heart-broken over the affair.
Another man, who was on his way
to Denver, was obliged to do the
the same thine and abandon his
trio to the west; while the third
victim of yesterday's monte trans
actions, found himself entirely
strapped. He was coming to this
State to invest his few hundreds In
land, upon which to settle, but
now he will have to give up all
hopes for some time to come of
acquiring a home in Nebraska.
The question is, how long will
this business be allowed to continue
on the Chicago fc Rock Island rail
road? Are its passengers not enti-'
tied to a reasonable protection from
these sharpers? If the officers of the
company wish to guard the interests
of their road, and to keep it in favor
with the traveling public, they
must immediately drive these mon
te cappers and throwers oft" their
line.

Mr. Wright Writes to Make Himself
Bight.
SAnATOOA, June 0.
Editor Omaha Bke:
In your Issue of the 5th there ap
pears an article with this caption :
"The Worst Government," wherein
Mr. Bechtel, the author, makes me
use the following language while
speaking at Waterloo last Saturday
evening: "The American Govern
ment la ue wor8t government the
sun of heaven fv shone upon."
The gentleman mlsconsJ'110" en"
tirely the spirit of my remark,
which was to this effect : "That the
American Government as conduct
ed to-day exhibits the worst picture
of self-srovernment that the sun of
Heaven ever shone upon ; that we
are ruled not by laws of the people's
making, but by those dictated to us
us by purse-proud cromorants
who, having made themselves
rich at the expense of the public are
not satisfied, but now are crying,
"Give slaves, Give!" Far be it from
me to even by a thought attempt
to tarnish in the slightest way, the
glorious escutcheon of our system
of Republican Government. No, I
am too thoroughly an American,
but it is time for all true men, and
especially young men of our coun
try, to prepare themselves for the
mighty struggle that is coming. Let
them be up and working rather than
be lulled asleep by the delusive tale
preached to them by antiquated
theorists, that better times are com
ing. The gentleman gives me some
good advice, for which I thank
him ; I always listen to
advice. Again, he seemed to wish
for the opportunity of a discussion.
He is on the right track; he has I
know, Ihe sound doctrine in his
heart, else he wouli never have
been awakened by any remark I
might have made. Now instead of
discussion, which is impossible, as
there are not two sides to the ques
tion, let me here tender to him the
use of my school-room, for any eve
ning during the next four weeks, he
may designate to speak upon the
subject, and I will insure him a good
house, and plenty of co-operation.
Hoping that he will accept the
invitation, and satisfy a desire,
which, as a teacher, an American,
and brother co-operative, he must
feel to be his duty in the premises,
and that we may hear from him
again, not through the press, but
from the rostrum, his proper sphere.
I remain with respect, his obedient
servant, W, Wright.

The Union Hen and the Honey See
VTBRXEX FOR THE TJKJS BY JOHX O. SAIE.
A Union lien the story goes
Loquacious, pert and self -conceited,
Espied a Bee upon a rose,
And thus the busy insect greeted :
' Say, wLat's the nse of such ts you,
(Excuse the freedom of a neighbor !)
Who gad about, and neTer do
A single act of useful labor T
" I've marked you well for many a day,
In garden blooms and meadow-cloter ;
Now here, now there, in wantop play ;
From morn to night an idle rorer.
WLIIe I toil and scratch at Bedfield's,
My faithful nurse the best of mothers ;
You Idly buzz about the fields,
Without the least regard for others.
" While I lay eggs or hatch them out,
You seek the flowers most sweet and
fragrant,
AnJ, sipping honey, stroll about,
i t best a gil-for-no:hin ragrant ! "
" Kay," said the Bee, " you do me wrong ;
I'm uef ul too ; perhaps you doubt it,
BtcaiiMJ-though toiling ail day long
I scom to mate a fuss about it !
" While you, with every egg that cheers
Your daily task, must stop and hammer
The news in other people's ears,
'Till. they are deafened with the clamor !
" Come now with me, and see my hire,
And note how folks may work in quiet ;
To useful arts much mere alive
Than yu with all your cackling riot !"
MORAL.
The Port, one may plainly see
Who reads this fable at his leisure,
la represented by the Bee,
Who joins utility to pleasure ;
W bile in this self-conoeited Hen
We note the Poet's silly neighbor.
Who thinks the n Isy " working-men "
Art doing all the useful labor !

The trial of the case of Kimball

and after occupying most of the day,
at the conclusion of the testimony
on the part of the plaintiff, a non
suit was granted and the jury dis
charged.
Padan et al vs Edgar. Leave to

In the matter of the estate of

McCormick vs Wood ; jury trial.
Verdict in favor of plaintiff for
$1,326.32.
Adjourned until 9 o'clock in the
morning.
The Grand Jury came .in this
morning and reported a number of
Indictments, which cannot yet be
made public, as they have not been
arrested.
They also reported that they had
visited the jail and found it cleanly
and well kept, so far as came under
their observation; the discipline ap
peared to be good. "Your jurors,
however, feel it incumbent on them
to say, that the prison accommoda
tions are not sufficiently entensive
to meet the requirements of this
county, and further that a
basement prison, even under fav
orable circumstances, is not a
proper and suitable place of de
tention for persons charged with
crime, and certainly not for such as
are detained as witnesses.
The basement under the court
house is old, decayed, badly venti
lated, and in the opinion of the
grand jury, unfit and unsafe for the
confinement of criminals.
If it is within our province to do
so, we respectfully recommend to
the County Commissioners the early
construction of a county prison, ad
equate to the necessities of Douglas
County, and on a plan in accord
ance with the times, as to ventila
latlon, sanitary regulations, and the
physical necessities of its inmates.
Respectfully submitted,
War. A. Gwyer, Foreman.
