Gen. Strickland Comes to theBes-
cue of the Oppressed Indus-
tiial Classes.
He Draws a Sad Picture of the
Degeneracy of Modern
Politicians.
What we may Expect if his Pro
gramme is Carried Out.
An enthusiastic meeting of the
Omaha council of "The Protectors of
Industry,"was held Friday evening
at the headquarters of the Sons of
Toil, over Captain Lee's saloon.
Capt. Lee, President of the lodge,
filled the chair, and presided with
his usual dignity over the delibera
tions of the toilers. After prayer
by Uie chaplain and the usual open
ing ceremonies according to the
beautiful ritual of the organization,
some unimportant business was
transacted. Speech-making wa
then in order. Several of the small
er guns shot off their mouths, when
the monotony caused by their common-place
remarks was relieved by
a unanimous request, expressed in
vociferous calls, for that 2S0-iouud-er,
General Silas A. Strickland, to
sound his loud bazoo.
'Striek!" "Strick!!" "Strick!!!"
"Speech!" "Givo us a good one!"
"Loom up! for the love of the Co
ops!" "Get up and shout!" were the
cries that resounded from all quar
ters of the room, playing a most
agreeable potpourri upon the drum
of Strick's ear. The silver-toned
Silas could mt resist this tempta-
tion, and he yielded, although ap
pearing reluctant to do so, to the
general request of his industrial
constituents. Deliberately rising
from his seat, he struck an imposing
attitude, resting, as it were, grace
fully upon his iedestal plantations.
His face was radiant with an ex
pression of satisfaction, which gave
to his countenanoo a strong resem
blance to the full moon or a photo
graph of the jolly Punoh. The grand
lecturer, who spouts for ten dollars
a days if he can get it was in his
element. He was happy.
His remarks on this proud occas
sion, which we with pleasure pub
lish to-day, are said to have been
somewhat us follows :
Most Wokshuted President,
Brothers axii Sisters : I thank
you for the proud honor you have
conferred innm me in calling upon
me to address you this evening. At
first I was too full for utterance,
which fact explains my little delay
to collect my scattered thoughts, be
fore answering your invitation. Too
full for utterance, did I say ? Nay,
not now. I find that I have much
to say to you. Never in my event
ful carppr jiave I felt more sanguine
of the success of our great cause
than I am to-day. I feel it in tle air
that wc shall all have glory.
Our noble institution is founded
upon eternal principles. When we
rcllect that It required a most patri-
otiC jrlflce 111 llU'll like my horny
fisted brothers, Dr. Hnrrbon John
son, our grand national preside!1!
and Judge Dudley, our grand na
tional secretary, and myself, your
humble servant, to abandon their
industrial avocations 'a voice
"seven-up and sieh" and throw
down the (ace of) spades, and other
implements of industry (another
voice "the dice-box and lager-beer
glasses to devote their entire ener
gies to the advocacy of this noble
cause of labor, then am I assured of
our success, and the near approach
of the day when we shall all have
ylorj.
When I rcllect that men w horn I
see around me here to the right
my brothers John Smiley, Justice
J. P. Bartlettand that great ex
plorer, Luther Poland, have de
serted their favorite haunts, the
principal one being the Elysian
Garden, to become members of this
noble order I am convinced that
this uprising among the working
men means death to corruption and
political bummerism, and then wc
shallallhave glory.
Again, sisters and brothers, when
I look over to tho left, and cast
1113 optics on such men as James
M. Pattee, Ijams, Pratt, H. B.
Meyrs, A. P. Cunningham and doz
ens of others, who have, with me,
labored so earnesth to build up and
support home industries distiller
ies, breweries and other industrial
institutions I say 11 must lie some
thing extraordinary that will unite
all these highly respected brothers
of society lovingly together in one
couin'on cause, by which we shall
all have glory.
Some of the newly initiated broth
ers and sisters, nre not probably
familiar with the grievances and
issues that havo brought us to
gether, and I want to address my
self especially to them In a fow
words. I want Uiem to look back
through the history of this State,
and become acquainted with the
disgraceful and deplorable conduct
of our public men, from constable
up to governor, and from governor
to United States Senator. Every
thing reeks with fraud and corrup
tion. The air is impregnated with
it the woods are full of it. Our
great legislators have piled up the
taxes mountain high to support
penitentiary rings, and the political
hummers who train with them.
Our governors have endorsed lotter
ies, and encouraged pardon brok
ers, and have set at liberty -vile
abortionists, and other criminals, to
again prey upon society. Look at
the penitentiary. That institution
has cost you a half million dollars,
and where has the money gone to ?
Why, it has been used to build up
Stout and his silent partners, the
lobbyists who manipulated the legis-
laturo. Cast your organs of vision on I
those machines of iniquity bribery,
corruption, and federal rings,
have been there, and know how it
is myself; but ice shall all have
glory yet.
Some of you may ask, can a man
be a United States District Attorney,
and his partner employed at the
same time for the defense? Why,
yes; even such things have been.
Was there ever a greater outrage
than this perpetrated on a civilized
community? No, never ! There is
one remedy for all this, however,
and that is to reform the public ser
vice, by sending men into office who
will not steal the country blind.
By this remedy we shall all have
glory!
Yes, put men into office who will
do something for their country, and
not go bumming around town night
and day, and swilling beer men, I
say, whoaie not familiar with tho
song,
"On the wings of lore I fly.
From groctr ce to grosser rye;
The sun shines in the burning sky ;
Lu eliine in the grosser rye."
We want men with more brains
than gut, and then we shall have
glonl
But now let us takeauother glance
at the laboring classes, the poor far
mers and the oppressed mechanics.
Has anylMMly got any money ? Just
fling that financial conundrum at
brother Lee. Look at the receipts
of the infernal revenue, and you
will see that the whisky tax has
been materially decreased, which
shows that the country is going to
the devil. Stagnation stares us in
the face everywhere.
I have heard prominent business
men, like Mr. Chase of the Califor
nia Wine Room, declare that there
is not $50 taken in now where
hundreds were raked in last year.
Harry Clayton tells me that he
might as well shut up the
"Crystal," if business does not im
prove, and if the currency is not in
creased. The only thing that will
help him out, he intimates, would
be to rent his banking room to a
lodge of the 'Protectors of Industry,'
and have it connected with his bar
by a bottle elevator, or eNe have it
understood that the protectors must
drink at the bar upon entering and
leaving. Brothers and sisters,
rather than have our business men
resort to such dodges, e must have
more greenbacks, and then wc shall
all hate glory.
Mr. Secretary please read these
documents, containing facts and
figures on the financial condition of
the country, while I step down
stairs a minute.
The secretary begins reading as
follows: "Tho wheel of fortuue
The drawing of Pattee's Fourth
Legal EntcrprNe J. M. Pattee Tri
umphant Grand success The
Drawing Conducted by the City and
Slate ollicials-Hon. W. H. James,
Ex-Governor of Nebraska, also
Gen Silas A. StrjpHJaiid, Ex-United
SUites Attorney assist-$ioo,000 to
be distributed The prizes to be
paid in full, "&c.
The secretary read Gen. Strick
land's speech of endorsement on
that occasion, the poncluding sen
tences, jn regaid to Mr. Pattee and
his lottery, being 5
I went right along sustaining him,
because knowing his integrity, I
knew tho outcome would be just
what wu siP lierp now that his
patron- would have a fair drawing.
You may safely rely upon the fact
that ho will do just what he says.
He moans flrat of all that in con
ducting t!ie schemo, ls patrons
(the ticker holders) shall be provi
ded for; that they shall have a fair
drawing, and that the prizes shall
be faiily and honestly paUli and
that is the thing in a lottery.
"Now gentlemen, trusting that
you will havo a successful drawing
here, I hope we may meet here this
evening, and have some fun and
rejoicing, and then I shall try and
entertain you somo fifteen or twen
ty minutes with a speech."
The grand lecturer, who had ex
cused himself on account of thirst, re
turned ju-t in timotohearthesesen-
tenees. "Great God!" oxclaimed he,
in amaement,"I have given you the
wrong paper. That is an old Herald.
Here N the right paper," said he as
he handed another to the secretary
to read.
He read as follows : "Belt known
by these piesents that Silas A.Hax
land and James Strickby, doing
business under the firm name of
Strickby fe Haxland, have this day
dissolved partnership, and that
James Strickby will assume all
debts and liabilities, "
"Hold on there! Stop her!"
shouted the grand lecturer, "I've
made a mistake. That's the wrong
document again ; but It reminds me
of ulllPF days."
Feeling In his pocketfor the much
wanted iaper, and failing to find it,
ho got out of his embarrassment by
saying, "Well, never niiiid the facts
and figures. I will refer to them
from memory hereafter."
The grand lecturer then resumed
tho thpead of Ili labyrinthian ad
dress: "Mr. President : Wo all knoiy
that we nro out of money, and we
propose to get mnnpy If wp can
some by going to Congress, others to
tho legislature, and some by engag
ing in honest industrial pursuits.
But we must havo 11101103' in order
that wc all shall he enabled to have
glory.
Wc proposo to make Uncle Sam
shell out. Great things can beac-
complished with money. By means
of it, I can go to Congress, and then
wc shall all have glory.
Brother Poland shall be given an
other surveying contract. A. P.
Cunningham shall be made United
States Marshal. The Grand Island
and Niobrara Railroad shall be Elven
a fat subsidy, and Pratt shall be
made President, and wc all shall
have offices and glory.
W? have now two organs to fight
our battles. Balcombe, of the He
publican, will stand by us, and If I
go to Congress, he shall be reward
ed with Hie Winnebago Indan
agency,and the Superintendence' of
of Indian affairs; and he shall have
glory.
That d d little fool Rosewater,
who runs the insect, might have
had a soft thing for his Bee had he
joined us, but it seems that Bal-
combe had more foresight than he,
and accordingly shook hands with
us and became a son of toil. He
sees soup in the distance. It is
useless any longer to try to beat any
common sense into Rosewater's
head. He never shall have glory.
We will reconstruct the peniten
tiary in another place ; remove the
capital, thus beating Butler; and
send Dudley to the Senate, if we get
more currency, and I go to Con
gress. Then shall ive all have glory.
We must do away with all the
old political wire-pullers, bummers,
and standing candidates; take a
new deal and give the sons of toil
a chance at the spoils of oflice.
In concluding my remarks on
finance, I will say that I believe Dr.
Plummer knows more about this
question than Grant does; and I
shall, when elected to Congress,
make him Surgeon-general, so that
he can have glory.
In finishing my brief speech, I
wisli to impress upon all the fact
that our motto, as it has been in the
past thus far, should henceforward
be, "Honesty and Industry."
On motion of Mr. Lucas, seconded
by Frank Walfej, a vote of thanks
to the grand lecturer, was unani
mously carried.
After prayer by the chaplain, the
meeting adjourned.

Cheap and Substantial Hoofing.
Owing to tho recent heavy rains
roof-repairing has been quite lively
in this city. About a month ago
the Bee building had a new gravel
and tar and felt combination roof
constructed in place of the decayed
stonepappo roof. This roof has
since been thoroughly tested, and
proves perfectly water proof. Lead
ing insurance men pronounce it
fully equal to metal roofing as far as
resistance to fire Is concerned. Mr.
W. B. Richardson, the contractor
wllQ constructed this roof, is rapidly
introducing this style of roofsin dif
ferent portions of tho Stato, and
from all reports thoy have so far
given tho best of satisfaction.
Among tho houses in this city re
cently furnished by him with roofs
of this nature, are the new brick
buUdJng of the Union Pacific rail
road conipany, Shnpsonfs block,
Huntington & Sharp's, Campbell's
block, and iiany others now in pro
cess of construction, At Fremont
the npw hotel is provjded with onp
of a simihr character. We tike
occasion to refer to this because we
know that many citizens like our
selves have been annually subject to
tho nuisanctf of repairing, and this
is the first composition roof we have
had which has proven satisfactory
in everj' respect.

The Society will Give a Summer
Night's Entertainment and
Promenade Concert.
At a meeting of the Philharmonic
Society, it was decided to give a
grand summer night's entertain
ment and promenade concert at
Thiele's Summer Garden and Hall,
at some day not far distant, for the
purpose of raising money with
which to purchase instruments for
the Society.
Messrs. A. Cahn, Decker and
Haarman were apixnutcd a com
mittee to perfect arrangements for
the affair.
Thiele's garden will be most beau
tifully decorated and illuminated,
and the hall will be reconstructed
for the occasion, as additional bal
conies, galleries, etc., will be put up.
Only members of the Society will
be admitted, so that the entertain
ment will be rather select. In every
respect it is intended to make it the
most enjoyable event of the kind
of the season.
