A startling exposure , so-called , of
the social and political life of Sena
tor Ingalls , has just been published
by the Kansas City Tunes. The ob
ject of these disclosures , at this
time , is evidently to make political
capital for the Democracy.
ACCORDING to Dr. JTohnson's per-
bonal organ "the independents of
Kansas met atTopeka yesterday
and nominated a full State ticket.
The Democracy of that State will
give their support to the same. "
Such is evidently also the cherished
plan of the leaders of the independ
ent movement in Nebraska. It is
expected that the Democrats will
consent to play possum by
giving support to the same , but we
apprehend that this game of shuttle
cock will hardly mislead Republi
cans eitheir In or out of the Grange.
The BEE , while taking to itselt
much credit for having labored to
ameliorate the condition of the pro
ducing classes , is careful to make no
referenceto the action of its editor ,
in regard to the garnishee law. The
irorkingmen of this city have not
forgotten his course with reference
to this matter , and those "kid-gloved
clerk" , " to whom he referred in the
most contemptuous manner , would
like to have the article reproduced ,
'accompanied with an explanation
he has to make for the language cm-
ploj'ed therein. Let the "fearless
and outspoken" enlighten us on this
subject Giion.
You shall have all the light you
desire. During the legislative bes-
Bion of 1871 , the editor of the BEE ,
as a member of that body , advo
cated the repeal or modification of
the garnishee laws of 'CO. He has
no reason to be ashamed of his ac
tion. That law was simply a ref
uge for dead-beats and scallawags.
Honest workingmeu had no use
for it , and neve ? did take advantage
of Its privileges , because they had
no intention to evade their honest
debts. The reference to kid gloved
clerks , made in a speech on that oc
casion , was simply a true illustra
tion of a class of extravagant dan
dles , who always live above their
income. With a salary of $600 to
§ 1,200 per annum , they attempt to
ape the manners and habits of mil
lionaires.
They- always managed to have
money for Havanas , campa rnebug-
gy rides and moonlight excursions ,
hut when the poor widow presented
her board billor the washerwoman ,
shoemaker or tailor demanded pay
for their work , they became indig
nant and referred them to thegarn-
ishee law. That law , has however ,
happily been modified by the last
legislature , and this class of high-
toned dead-beats are 110 longer able
to cheat their creditors. Any more
wanted ?
QUESTIONS FOE ME. EOSEWATEE.
Will Mr. E. Eosewater , in his an
swer to his bid for grange support in
last evening's issue , respond to the
following questions :
First Did you not by your action
refuse to printers in employ reason
able compensation , "and by such
mean compel the present publishers
of the Omaha Union to adopt the
co-operative plan ?
Second If you have always , as
you claim , exposed monopolists , will
you Inform your readers where and
when you publicly attacked the
recent arbitrary , increase by the
Union Pacific railroad iu their coal
tariff to the destruction of mining
andlinanufacturing Interests in Utah
and Wyoming ?
Third Did any other organ than
the Ornana Union publish or de
nounce such action ?
Fourth Do you endorse it ? and
if so , point out its particular advant
age to the producing interests ,
whjph require cheap rates and a
western market for their cereals.
Fifth Do you endorse tbcrecenl
combination of railroad agents with
an increased tariff of ten dollars per
car , and is it not a direct tax upon
the farmers , of whose interests you
sfetjiu to be a self-conitituted cham
pion ?
Sixth Have you ever repudiated
the annual ten per cent , deduction
by railroads in the meagre salaries
of honest njechanjos whorn you pro
fess to love so much as the day of
election approaches ?
Yours , respectfully ,
HARBISON JOHNSON.
RESPONSE.
The open bid for public notoriety
of the Ko-op chief will receive
prompt attention , and his six ques-
* ions shsH be squarely met.
First As prqprjetqr of the BEE
printing establishment , E. Bose-
water assumed the right to reg
ulate his expencjjturps ac
cording to his income.
During the very critical period fol
lowing the panic of last fall he be
came convinced that he could nol
afford to comply with the overbear
ing and merciless exactions of an
organization that claimed for its
prerogative tjie rgh } _ 9 regulate ,
manage , and control his busjnpss.
The consequence was tbp notori
ous printer's strike. The best evi
dence that Bosewater pays reason
able wages to his printer ? , is the fact
that two printers on his pay-roll re
ceive $24 per week , while others av
erage from S1G to $22 per week for
ten hours day wprk. So much for
oppression.
SecondThe Union , iir. John
son , and some commodious ass , who
writes idiotic letters from Utah , are
the only parties who complain
about the oppressive advance in coal
rates , on the Union Pacific.
Figures never lie , and Mr. John
son will probably understand why
the BEE has not berated and de
nounced the Union Pacific in con
nection with its coal rates wher. we
inform him that Wyoming coal
whiph , sjx months ago , was sold in
the Omaha market at $ l sppr ton , is
now delivered at $9. The Ireight
tariff from Book Springs to Omaha
was formerly $8.50 , and the ad
vance ( ? ) is therefore not very pre-
ceptible.
Third and fourth Neither the
BEE nor any other organ has pub
lished or denounced this imaginary
outrage on the industrial classes.
The glory and credit of this feat be
long exclusively to the Union ,
Fifth The BIE neither endorses
nor approves the recent combination
of railroad agents and the advance
in transportation rates.
Sixth The BEE Is not a repudiator -
tor , hence it never has repudiated
the alleged annual ten per cent ,
deduction by railraods in the mea
ere salaries of honest mechanics.
The BEE is not aware that such a
reduction ( ? ) has been attempted or
carried out. The BEE only knows
of a temporary reduction in work
ing time last winter and the dis
charge of some mechanics this
spiing. The reduction in time was
simply a humane mesisure to save
some of these mechanics from being
thrown out of employment. Me
chanics employed by the U. P. are ,
however , well aware that the BEE
did protest against the reduction of
the working force in the shops.
We have answered Mr. Johnson's
questions frankly , and now let him
answer ours :
First If you are really a sincere
friend and champion of the me
chanic and laborer , why have you
compelled honest workingmen em
ployed by you to put their claims
for work and labor performed
into the bands of the sheriff , and
why do you oppress these workingmen -
men by evading the payment of
these executions ?
Second You assume to be a lead
ing representative of the industrial
classes. Why do you play the
drone by hanging around Omaha
beer gardens and corner groceries
from morning till night , while your
farm is going to weeds ?
Third Have you done ten hours
labor on any single day on your
farm during the present summer ,
and if not , why ?
Tin : editor of the senior twilight
is in great fear that the Union will
be swallowed up by the co-ops. We
extend to members of that organi
zation the tame privileges through
these columns that we do to any
other men or party , but that we en
dorse them or shall support the
ticket , in case one should be put in
the Held , is quite another thing.
Union.
If the Union is not playing into
the hands of the putrid political
hacks that hatched the co-op orgail-
ization into life , why does it fail to
expose and denounce these impos
tors ? Why not a word about their
sham pretensions as champions of
the industrial classes ?
Why not a syllable about that in
excusable piece of rascality , the
swindling of a Beatrice hotel keeper
by two notorious Ko-op apostles ?
The BEE extends the privilege of its
columns to all classes of people ,
even States prison convicts , but it
never tries to cover up their corrup
tion , much less would it aid or en
courage a set of unscrupulous bum
mers who are trying to gull work-
iDgmen into their meshes ,

TILTOH'S CBEED.
To the Editor of the Cincinnati Commercial :
I take the liberty of rend'ng ' you the en-
undoubtedfy , Is the sentiment of the -writer
previous to 1868. The apparent radical change
in him occurred after discovering the infidelity
of his wife , all his vagaries and heresies , his
running after false gods , can be accounted for In
no other way. 1 his little poem is a volume in
itself , and is as creditable to the man as it is
beautiful. L. 1) .
MY CREED.
As other men have creeds so have I mine ;
I keep the holy faiih in God , in man ,
Aud in the angels ministering between ;
I hold to one true Ourch of all true eouls.
Whose Churchly seal is neither bread nor wine ,
Nor lay ing OB of hands , nor hoi v oil ,
But only the annotating of God'i grace.
T hate all kings , and caste , and rank of birth ;
For all the sons of man are sons of Go. ) ,
Nor limps a beggar but is noble born ,
Nor \ > tars a slave a yoke , a czara crown ,
That makes him less or more than a man.
I love my country and her righteous cause ;
So dare 1 not keep silent of her sin ?
And after freedom may her bells ring peace.
I love one woman with a holy fire ,
Whom I revere as priestess of my house ;
I otand with wondering awe before my babes ,
Till thty rebuke me to a noble life ;
I keep a faithful friendship with my friend ,
Whom loyally I sene before myself ;
I lock my lips to close to speak a lie ,
I wa-h my hands too white to touch a bribe
I owe no man a debt I cannot pay ,
Save only of the love men ought to owe.
Withal , each day , before the I leased heaven
I open wide the chambers of my soul ,
And pray the Holy Ghost to enter in.
Tnat reads the fair confession of my faiih ,
bo crossed with con radict ons cf uiy lile ,
That now may God forgh e the written lie ;
Yet still , by help ol him who helpcth men.
I face two worlds and fear not life nor death ,
O Pathsr , lead me by the hand. .Anicn.

That the scientific schools of the
country are to send out the notable
men of the next quarter of a cen
tury is the conviction of the San
Francisco Bulletin. It says in re
gard to the subject : While the
professions are crowded , as they
always are , there is a great Jearth of
educated men who are ready to
enter the new fields of scientific in
vestigation already open. Mining
engineers , metallurgists , dyers , de
signers , industrial artists , fully up
to the requirements of the times ,
are not abundant. In fact , some
scores pf thqsp mpn h.ave been
drawn from Europe during the last
few years. The colleges did not
furnish them. Now , in just these
fields of Intelligent experiment ,
where the most thoroughgoing
science makes -an alliance with in
dustrial and with invention , our
greatest discoveries are likely to be
made.
Bishop Whipple said the other
day , at the commencement of Min
nesota University :
When I visited England -found
that England , with 30,000,000 of
souls , had but four universities Ox
ford , Cambridge , Durham and Lon
don. Minnesota , with 200,000 souls ,
iiad half n score. But then it took
England 500 years to build an Ox
ford , and Minnesota has killed five
! n as many years. I visited such
schools as Ilugby and Eton , and
asked the counsel of men who had
made education a life-long work.
They told me that even to build a
school I must begin with a score of
boys ; that a hundred boys would
ruin me. A school was a living
being ; it had organized life. It
grew. Its character was made up
of the discipline , scholarship , morals
and traditions of all who became
its pupils. I caine home a wiser
man , and resolved that if it took
twenty men like me to lay the foun
dation , we would have one good
English school.

The Rev. D. H. Shock , of ( he
Central Methodist Episcopal church ,

for marrying a minor girl.
A veteran of twenty-six was mar
ried at C'umberfand , Md. , last week
to a blushing maid ol fifty. It is
thought she will have to pickle him
to "keep" him.
"Kate , I understand you have ac
cepted a situation as governess.
Rather than that , I weuld-marry a
widower with six children. " "Yes ,
dear Sophie , and so would T but
where is the widower ? "
At Crawford , Wis. , , 'recently , a
rural couple registered as man and
wife , and were allottrd to the same
room. The next morning , after
breakfast , they requested that a
justice of the peace might be called
to unite them in the holy bonda of
matrimony. The request was com
plied with without hesitation.
Says the Arizona Miner : "It is
a beautiful sight to attend an Ari
zona wedding. The bride in white
the happy groom the solemn
n\inister the smiling parents , and
from t\vgUy } five to forty shot-guns
standing against the wall ready for
use , make up a panorama not soon
fo-gotten. "
A runaway couple went to Eugene
City , Oregon , last week , to get mar
ried. The clergyman and clerk
both wanted proof that the young
lady was of proper age. Strategy
was re&orted to. The figures 18 were
placed in the shoes ofQ n aifjen ,
and onpfQ \ \ was ifl the secret af
firmed that she was over eighteen.
This brought the license and the
clergyman. They were made
happy.
A wedding ceremony appears to
be an affair which calls out all the
enthusiasm of poetic sympathy ftf
the town of Lagrange \ iKentucky. .
A run-away pair were married there
the other d.fiy 'in the open air in
presence of all the first citizens and
oldest Inhabitants , -who rushed en
mas.se to the fateful scene and stood
on chairs and climbed the surround
ing trees to see it. The bride was over
come by her feelings that when the
time came to promise to love , hon
or , etc. , she was entirely unable to
speak. Whereupon a sympathetic
and absorbed young man , who had
been looking on wi'.h ' open mouth
from a tree near by , kindly yelled
at the top of his voice , " Say yes ! "
'Ihus sustained and encouraged. , he
fair girl stepped over h.er emharrass-
ment , and the oere'mony was iuly }
concluded , to tfiq "d.elfght of the
warn hearted Audience ,
IMPIETIES.
Upon the tombstone of Samuel
McCracken , once a notorious horse
dealer , and who was buried in a
Trenton cemetery , April , 1862 , the
following obituary is inscribed : "If
leading politicians and priests go to
heaven , I am bound to stop at some
other station. "
That was a ludicrously sudden
descent from the sublime to the ri
dicule us where a clergyman , preach
ing on the " Ministry of Angels , "
suddenly observed , "i hear a whis
per ! " The change of tone started
one of the deacons , who sat below ,
from a drowsy mood , and , spring-
ins , ' to his feet , he cried : " It's the
bsiys in the gallery. "
A religious paper remarks that
"many of our churches tire of the
present mode of conducting the
services of song in the house of the
Lord. In some cases thesingershard-
ly get the burnt cork off" their faces
in season for the morning worship.
Italians and Jewesses , who sing at
the theatre until midnight on Sat
urday at a heavy salary , appear in
to praise the lord. "
It grieves us to the heart to an
nounce a dreadful fight in the col
ored Methodist Church in Fort
Wayne , Ind. One of the chief
features of this painful contest was
"gouging with parasols. " From
this the disheartening fact may be
deduced that the combatants were
mainly sisters. Twelve of them
have been consigned to the lock-up.
No fatal wounds were given during
the battle , but there was a good
deal of hair-pulling auxiliary to the
parasol performance.
In its first column . the London
27/iJc.s' , the other day , recorded the
marriage , on the llth of July , at
Vallo Herregord , Norway , of Mr.
Hurburt Smith , the author of "Tent
Life with English Gypsies in JNor-
way , " to Esmeralda , the heroine of
his"book. . Perhaps the public would
like to read such an interesting an-
noiuicoment in the Romany lan
guage. Anticipating fcuoh a desire ,
Mr. Smith has published the follow
ing in the Times : "On the llth
instant , Adry Vallo Phlllisin , Nor

There is trouble among Christians
of color in Oakland , Cal. The Rev.
Mr. Handj' , pastor of the M. E.
African Church there , has a mortal
quarrel with The Elevator , the col
ored people's organ. The Reverend
Handy is a belligerant and muscu
lar Christian ; and he has challenged
the editor to fight "with swordspis-
tols , clubs , rocks , lists , boxing-
glove * . or daggers : . " "We do not un
derstand that he proposes to use all
the e weapons of olleuse and de
fense simultaneously. Expert In
the use of all of them , we suppose
that from this formidable miscella
ny he allows his antagonist to make
choice. The Rev. Mr. Handy is
said to divide his time between
preaching , whitewashing and saw
ing wood.
A negro preacher in Virginia was
lately trying to Impress upon his
bearers a correct idea of the general
uncomfortableness of the lower re
gions.
"Bruderen. " said he , "yon's

A general chorus of " You's right ! "
"Ob course we is ! " convinced him
thai they "were not anvthing else. "
"Well , " continued he , "You

"The "ayes had it" again , so he
