OFF FOR LINCOLN.
A BigCrcwd ol Oniahosses Leave
.This Horning for the Capital
to Attend the Senaro-
rial Fight.
The principal excitement at Lin
coln at the present time is the fight
for the United States Senatorship ,
which will be decided within the
next two or three days
The train for Lincoln yesterday
ing was crowded with carpetbaggers
gers from Omaha , all going down to
take a hand in the fight.
Among the passengers we
noticed Senator Rustin and Senator
Spaun , accompanied by Mrs Spauu.
Contingent Congressman O'Hawes
was on. board , as happy as a big
sunflower , having just returned
from Washington. He considers
his prospects of obtaining a .seat in
Congress as almost certain.
Hon. John I. Realck went down
to "hoop it up , " as he himself ex-
pressed it.
The Merchants' Club
was repre
sented by its secretary , Hon. Charles
Rediok.
D.AV. Hitchcock , of Chicago , the
general pass'r agent of the Chicago ,
Burlington & Quincy railroad , and
Harry Douel , the Omaha agent of
the same road , and J. W Morse , the
general western passenger agent ,
were the happiest men on the train.
They didn't _ care whether school
kept or not ; alt they wanted was to
see the sport , and have some fun
"mit der poys. "
Postmaster Yost , P. Vandervoort ,
United States District Attorney Ne
ville , John B. Furay , Col. Watson
B. Smith , and United States Deputy
Marshall Ball , were at the head of a
little brigade who were going down
to fight mit Dundy.
Frank J. Ramge , the fash
ionable merchant tailor , was
ragged out in his best styfr ,
and went down with an
eye to business. A great many
suits of clothes will be bet on the
Senatorial election , and Frank pro
poses to fill his order book , and , like
any other artist , take the measures
on the spot.
John McCormick was provided
with a supply of blankets , no doubt
being afraid that the accommoda
tions at Lincoln for the carpetbaggers
gers would be rather thin.
Amont the others whom we no
ticed on board , were County Com
missioners McArdle and Kedfield ;

There has to be n- day force and a
night force ; the night force stay on
one night and half of the next. The
two policemen that were on'at that
time were August Williams and Ja-
c6bS\vartzlander , two of the May
or's appointees. All I have to say
is.that , it is a matter of impossibili

LINCOLN.
The Insane Asylum Controversy.
I Correspondence of tha BEE )
LINCOLN , Jan. 18,1875.
EDITOR OJIAHA BEE :
"WHO LIED. "
Some time since a Lincoln correspondent
pendent of the BEE stated that
much dissatisfaction existed in this
community because of the appoint
ment of Dr. ( ? ) Scott as Superin
tendent of the Insane Asylum. He
gave.as a reason for such dissatis
faction , the report in circulation
here , namely , that Dr. Scott was
not a practicing physician , and it
was feared that he was incompe
tent for the position. An insurance
agent , one McMurtry , was quick to
pronounce all such insinuations
false , and in his sweeping denuncia
tions of those who had spoken rela
tive to the subject , he branded the
correspondent as a liar. The cor
respondent spoke neither for or
against Dr. Scott ; ho simply stated
facts. This noisy champion of Mr.
Scott'8 talked so much , however ,
that I concluded to investigate the
matter and ascertain who lied.
3B. SCOTT'S SIDE OF THE QUESTION.
The people of the State want to
know whether this man is capable
or not. With this end in view , 1
have carefully inquired concerning
the points in controversy , and will
give Mr. Scott's version first , then
the opposite view , reserving the
right to judge which I consider the
strongest.
Mr. Scott wishes it distinctly un-
dersood that he is not the pet candi
date of Stout , Kennard & Co. Fur
ther , he is satisfied that this "hue
and cry" is raised against him at the
instance of the above mentioned
firm , and for no other reason than
that his appointment did not serve
to accomplish certain political ends.
It is also claimed that as one of
the trustees of the Asylum he did
good work : that he is better ac
quainted with the wants of the in
stitution than any other man , and is
fully competent. Finally , it is said
he is houestajgood Christian gentle
man , but through misfortunes some
what embarrassed1 financially , and
that this appointment would help
him out.
THE OTHER SIpE.
The fir t and only legitimate
question for me to solve is his com ?
petency. I care nothing for per
sonal wrangles , but when a wrong
Is perpetrated upon the- people of
this State , or upon a public officer , a
journalist in possession of the facts
fail to discharge his duties when he
neglects to expose the wrong.
Dr. Scott was asked by a phy
sician of this city , where he receiv
ed his medical education. The re
ply was , at the Lynn Medical Col
lege , Chicago. A letter to the Sec
retary of tiat { Jnstitutionj asking if
such h man ever gra'dtiate'd there ,
was answered in the negative. A
diploma does not signify that a man
is piaster pf his profession by any
means. But it does signify'that he
has ha ( | the opportunity to obtain
&ojne theoretica.1 knowledge. Shicp
no proof of that nature caii hje had ,
we must examine his record as a
practicing pbysiciau ,
MrSpott came to Lincoln in the
year 18GO. He purchased an inter
est } n a drug store , which business
he eontfiiMed for a year. Deposing
of his interest in this business , he
engaged in real estate and Insurance
in company with Mr. McMurtry ,
who claims to have influenced Gov.
Furnas sufficient to secure his ap
pointment. He continued } u the
real estate business uutil last-fall ,
when ne went to Atchisou , Kansas ,
and engaged | n the business of ship
ping wnortleberries , blackberries ,
and the like , to a northern market.
Thus five years have passed with
no practice or study. It is asked ,
does it look reasonable that "a phy
sician of acknowledged skill and
ability in his profession , " should
travel over the country , picking up
a living in this hand-to-mouth sort
of manner ? He has no diploma to
show that he has ever studied ; he
has no record , for eight years , at
least , to show that he ever practiced.
Such are the. objections urged by
the people generally , while the med
ical fraternity prb'tes't a'gainsti'en
masse.
Now if Dr. Scott's reputation is
handled in this manner on personal
grounds , it is a pusillanimous war
fare. If , on the other hand , he is
assuming to know what he does not ,
and for a paltry salary , because a
retiripg pxpputjve | s BO careless as
no't fo examine into his competency ,
is desirous of practicing his igno
rance on the most unfortunate of
all , it is simply infamous.
If he was'fuithful as , Trustee , he
did his duty no more , no lefs. Pos.
sibly Stout and Howard favor him ,
and possibly some one else. He is
a Christian gentleman. That is not
denied But for his fidelity to the
church , and for his forensic efforts
'
in b'elialf of sinners from the pulpit ,
