This last move of the British govern

p 'sition of the English ministry has

the force of circumstances and the

THE CAMPAIGN IN DOUGLAS
COUNTY.
Douglas county ia republican by
fully five hundred majority. It is
sife to predict even a larger majority
in this county , for the national ticket.
Hod the Republican parly been un-
tramelled in its choice of candidates
for the legislature , the election
of a solid republican delegation
from this county would have been ,
assured beyond a reasonable doubt.
Unfortunately , however , the pwty has
been deprived of free expression in its
primary elections and conventions.
The primaries were packed by monopoly
ely strikers and the conventions ma
nipulated by monopoly attorney * .
Instead of presenting a ticket made up
of men who would legislate in the in
terest of the popple , the party is asked
to support men who would simply
be mere puppets in the hands of the
monopoly managers. Quito apart
from this terious objection , some tf
the candidates on the U. P. republi
can legislative ticket are disqualified
by habits of intemperance , lack of re
sponsibility and want of integrity
Contrary to our expectations the
democracy have placed a stronger
ticket in the field ttan they have had
for many years. This pirtly because
they are in the minority and partly
because the Union Pacific managers
did not have full control of it.
Whather they thought that in this na
tional campaign year the republican
masses would swallow everything and
pull through the U. P. men , or wheth
er the democratic managers -were
more prudent in the choice of candi
dates , the result is that the legislative
ticket nominated by the democracy is
for the most part made np of better
material.
A majority at least of their candi
dates are men who never betrayed a
trust , men'who have a vital interest
in the prosperity of oar city and state
and above all things men who don'l
wear the brass collar. George
\V. Doane and John D. Howe
rank high as lawyers and are
beyond the suspicion of a bribe
Messra. Swartzlander , Dr. Link anc
J. A. McShano , are well known In
the community as men of irreproacha
bio character and beyond the influence
of corporate monopolies. George
Shields is a young attorney of fair
reputation and good habits. Charles
Burgdorff on the other hand is a very
bad selection. He is a gang boss o !
the U. P. and cannot bo trusted
with the interests of the people.
It will now remain for the tax
payers and producers of Douglas coun
ty who desire to be represented by the
ablest and most trustworthy men , to
counsel together and put a ticket in
the field that will deserve the support
of the masses , a ticket made up of
men who will legislate for the people
and not merely for corporations.
TAR editor of the Saline County
Union , who is a candidate for the state
senate is trying to throw duff in the
eyes of Saline coun'y ' farmers , by re
producing extracts from speeches and
editorals , to prove himself an anti-
monnpoly man. Among other things
ho quotes his editorials approving the
action of the leglslaturoin passing res-
olutiors against the pro rata bill.
These resolutions were drawn up in
the U. P. headquarters at Omaha
and introducsd by the U. P. capper ,
Church Howe. They were very in
geniously gotten up and humbugged
many intelligent people. They favor
ed a general pro rata bill by congress ,
and opposed special pro rata. Now ,
all the cappers of the U. P. knew that
congress couldn't enact a general pro
rata law , because it has no control over
railroads chartered by the etates and
roads that do not extend beyond the
boundaries of the state. For the same
reason a general pro rata law
could not bo enacted by our state
legislature because congress alone can
regulate Inter state commerce or
rather railway traffic that reaches
yoiid the boundaries of the state. Con
gress could have enacted a pro rata
law between the U. P. &B. &M. be
cause these roads were chartered and
subsidized by congress and are subject
to regulation by congress. Mr. Wells
cn't therefore pass muster as an antimonopoly -
monopoly man because hs favored I
general pro rata , but on the contrary
heconvictshiratelfofbeingastoolpigecn
of tha monopoly that employed Church
Howe. In 1876 Mr. Wclla was an
avowed supporter of the Jay Gould
candid.-.to for the seuato and an c p-
ponent of the anti-monopoly faction
of the republican party. Mr. Wells
cin't deceive intelligent farmers now
by playing anti-monopolist.
THE completion of the Atchison ,
Tupeka and Santa Fa ana the South
ern Pacific roads which will tike place
on the 1st of January will bo an event
of great importance to the producers
of the Pacific coast. The traua-cou-
tlncnUl road will no doubt at first
maintain rates or pool earnings from
rompcting pjints yet the time must
come when competition will assort it
self and the people will reap the bene
fit. Aside from this the benefits re
sulting from the opening up of the
southwestern portions of the country
by the new line cannot be overesti
mated. Arizona's mineral fields whose
development it now seriously hampered
by lak of transportation facilities.
ACCORDING to the Saline county
Mr. Dawes is the father of
section 7 , article 11 , of our constitu
tion which requires the legislature to
enact laws to prevent extortion , dis
crimination and other abuses by raiU
roads. Mr. Dawes was a member of
the legislature of 1877 , and we dafy
his Siline county champion to point
to a single bill Dawes ever introduced
or supported to carry out that provis
ion and comply with his oath as legis
lator.
Au , the talk about the interests of '
corporate monopolies and the interests
of the producing classes being iden
tical is mere bosh.

VALENTINE'S DEPENSS.
There has been a-great mumbling
n the air concerning a certain back-
) y grab that happened during the
neeting of the last legislature , and
; hat is said to have inured to the
) enefit of the Hon. E. K. Vrlentine ,
our present member of congress. Not
ully knowing the facts , however , The
Republican had supposed that tbey
were something like this Hon. E
EL Valentine was elected judge of his
judicial district. Another man ;
iras given the certificate of
election and rerved tome eight
months. Finally the courts
decided in favor of Valentine , Jand
when the legislature met he put in a
bill for the salary of the eight months
during which he had been wrongfully
deprived of the office , and during
which he had also been forced to
much trouble and expanse in attempt
ing to secure his rights That bill was
allowed by the leqiilature. We never
heard that Mr. Valentino bribed that
body or that ho lobbied his bill
through by any unfair means. Ho
presented it and told the truth about
it and it was paid.
But that , it seems , is hardly half
the story. The real crime of Mr.
Valentine , according to TUB BEE , is
that he neglected to give John C.
Cowin anything for lepal services ren
dered by him in the contest suit over
the possession of the jndgeship. "Not
only , " pys the pititul Bohemian , "did
Valentino never pay Cowin one
dime for his services in that case , but
he never so ranch ns offered to
pay his hotel b'll or his faro from
Omaha to Lincoln. " That is a grave
charge , lacking to ba infinite in its
enormity , only the dependent accusa
tion that Mr. John C. Cowin has
boncht his cigara and chewing tobacco
without Mr. Valentine's help from
'hat day to this. If it is proven by
the hotel register that Mr. Cowin's
bf"rd at Lincoln ws not paid by Mr.
Valentine , we do not kn w what we
slmll do. [ Omaha Republican.
If John C. Cowin had made as lame
a showing of Valentine's claim to the
judgeship before the supreme court as
the U. P. organist makes of Valen
tino's back pay grab , the supreme
court would never have been convinced
that Valentino wixs elected by a majority -
jority of two votes and a half. Val
entine was placed on the bench in
1870. If he believed himself justly
entitled to § 1875 back pay for ser
vices ho had never rendered , why
didn't he present his chirn before the
legislature of 1877 ? Why did he
wait two years and Until after ho
was elected to congress ? Does any
intelligent mnn believe that the lst
legislature would have voted him
$1875 back pay if he hadn't been
congressman ? The statement that
Valentino did not lobby that claim
through by dishonorable means , is
disproved by the fact that he repre
sented to the committee that ho needed
the § 1800 to pay his attorney fees and
expenses of litigation. Valentine was
guilty of deliberate falsehood Inas
much as ho lird stipulated with
Cowin th.it no r.tt ney'a fee should be
paid. Right htnc ia where the BIE'S
cVrge that Valentino nsver even
ollVrad to piy Cowen's hotel bill or
faro to Lincoln comes homo with
effect. It shows him to bo not only a
liar and robber of tax payers , but an
ungrateful hog , for no man with a
thimbleful of gratitude in his compo
sition would have faiL-d to tender his
attorney the nc'ual 1 penses incurred
by him in his bohs.lt" .

the farm and covers every topic in
which the farmers are interested.
Tte articles upon the care and manage
ago men t of the horse , its diseases and
the remedies for those diseases , are
the best ever published on the
subject , while those on the
care of cattle , swine , sheep , bees ,
and the destruction of farm in

SHBHMAN COUNTY RINGS.
Lour CITY Neb. , October 21.
To the Editor of THE BIB.
The cause of dissatisfaction in the
republican ranks of this cmaty sis
summirizod in brief : Irregularity in
calling the meetings of the primaries
ia the different precincts on the lllh
of September and the convention on
the 18th. The rapnblican party and
the citizens of Shernun county were
not represented , as but two precincts
out of six held regular meetings at the
innal places of holding elections and
fraudulent credentials were handed in
to the committee on credentials , and
the committee supplied delegates
where no credentials were given. It
was patent to all that the work of the
conventionhadbeon , maopzd out before
hand by and in the interest of indivi
duals , or what is generally known hear
as the court house or Wall ring , to the
subverting and sacrificing of the prin
ciples of the republican party na the
rights of the citizens of Sherman caun-
ty. There being general dissatisfaction
outside of the
convention and
considerable -
siderable dissatisfaction inside the
convention , the prominent and sub
stantial citizens of the county and
ntnong them nearly all the officials of
Ihe countywere anxious to have some-
done , and as many had coxe expecting
a mass convention , I felfc it
to ba my duty as chairman of the
central committee , after consultation ,
to turn the call over to the people and
authorize the calling of a mass con
vention after the adjournment of the
delegate convention , and co-operate
with it , and hence a double delegation
dicial and representative conventions.
At the senatorial convention a half
vote was given each delegation.
At the judicial the mass delegation
were admitted. That convention ,
comprised of fifteen counties , was
composed of the best legal talent in
the district.
At the rcp.oaontatlva convention
the firat delegation was receivi d by
sacrificing Mr. Combs , the Vslley
county candidate , to whom they had
pledged their support , and giving that
support to Boone county's candidate.
These are substantially the facts.
There is no rupture in the Republican
ranks. T ey will bo solid for Garfield
and Arthur but they have become
tired and disgusted with ring poli
tics. Respectfully ,
S. BURRETT ,
Chairman Central Committee.
Defining His fosition.
Mr. E. M. Correll , editor of The'
Hebron Journal , the republican can
didate for the lower house for Thayer
county , defines his position as follows :
Aside from the great national ques
tions at issue between the republican ,
democratic and greenback patties ,
there are questions of state and local
interests of much magnitude and im
portance to the people of Nebraska
and the citizens of Thayer county !
Upon these questions , we desire to
put ourselves on record , plainly , ex *
pressly , and beyond the possibility of
slanderous cavil or misrepresentation.
THE NATIONAL PARTIES.
"Believintj that the grand work of
the republican party in the pist , i's '
nresent noble labors and record , and
the bright future of the nation under
republican management , ao long as
this party shall remain true to its pure
principles of progress , reform , human
liberty , national union and integrity ,
are suh as to commend it to the con
tinued confidence of the people , wo
are an earnest republican.
We hope for the success of the re
publican ptrly , because wo believe
that under its rule the United
States will bj saf3 and prosperous.
RAILROADS.
Of the many dangers that threaten
the stability and purity of our govern
ment and the material interests of itb
citizen ? , none are more imminent , un
less checked in time , than the pbwer-
ful railrdad corporations and giant
combinations that even now seek to
control not only the traffic but even
the legislation of the states that com
pose the union. WB bpliovo It neces
sary for the state to control theao cor
porations by the enactment of wise
and just laws , with sevbre penalties
for violation , providing a reasonable
maximum limit of freight tarifii and
passenger rates. We bel'ovo ' also that
laws should bo passed prohibitinc ; rail
road discrimination between different
localities , between grain raisers and
grain buyers , and extortion of all
kinds. In this connection wo most
heartily commend the sixth I tank of
the Nebraska republican state plat
form , which says :
Wo pledge our support to such leg
islation in congress and such measures
by the legislature as may bo necessary
to effect a correction of abuses , and
prevent extortion and discrimination
iu charges by railroad corporations.
At the same time , while carefully
guarding the people from extortion
nnd discrimination , the legislation
should be just towards the railroads ,
and in BO far as consistent with the
rights of all parties , of such a nature
as to encourage the building these
great and necessary developers of state
prosperity.
The People "Wide Axvaka
"The repnblicaus of Saline county ,
beini ; dissatisfied with the action of
the regular republican convention in
that county , have held another con
vention and placed another ticket in
the field for members of the legisla
ture , composed of stalwart republicans
oppoed to all monopolies. Sjward
county is abe t to follow Saline , tor
the sitnu roisons. In both casea the
aiiti-inonopoly ticket will win , as of
right they should. [ "Edpar Review.
Well said , Bro Hull , and the two
great R. R. monopolies of the state
not being satisfied with choking the
people with a state ticket entirely of
their own selection , have even enter
ed the counties , ( tfuckolls among the
number , ) and bad their emissaries ee
lected for the legislature , that they
may control that body against the ur
gent demands of the people for equal
and exact justice. On the national
issue , it is danger from rebels , and on
the local issue , danger from despotic
monopolies , who find willing tools in
unprincipled men , liars , perjurers ,
shysters , axvindlera.'and the like , who
are ever found ready to become the
tool and lick-spittle of monopolies or
those in power , who will lavish a few
dollars on their subtle subjects head.
The people are fast awakening to the
dangerous situation in which they are
plated , and will ably redress their
wrongs and severely punish the o who
are thus endeavoring to delude and
sell them out to their oppressors.

The Conoition of Mexico.
New Orleans Democrat.
Seuor M. Ronv.ro , who for a long
time was the representative of the re
public of Mexico at Washington , since
minister of finance under President
Diiz , and now po'tmaster general , ar
rived here yesterday after a pleasant
trip from the City of Mexico. He re
ports the country as In a state of per-
tect peace , all re volutions having been
quieted , and ttie approaching inaugur
ation of the incoming president , Gon-
zalcs , will be peaceable. Mexico has
never presented n brighter future than
she do s now , and internal improve
ments are being rapialy developed.
His visit to the United
Stat ° s is one
purely of pleasure. Traveling
w th Senor Romero ia Mr. Robert Bf
Goriuch , civil engineer , who has mac a
Mexico a place of residence for the
27 years. Mr. Gorsuch reports that
never before in all his residence there
Inve been such evidences of prosper-
i > yas now. The federation has given
every facility to foreign capital to go
there to build railroads , and has given
to the states the right to make grants
for railroad building. The spirit of
progress seems to bo moving the people
ple , and the best results are coming
in. Running out of the City of Mexico
ice there is a line established , some
115 miles in l
njrth , entirely upon
homo cipital , and already it yields
hi ndsome returns. It rues south from
the city into the state of Guerrero ,
which it a productive tugar district ,
and business over the road is verv
brisk. *
Speaking of the approaching induc
tion into office ot President Connies ,
Mr. Gorsuch said that his election had
already been promulgated , and it was
expected that his term would be one
of progress and improvement. Gon-
ziles had not as yet promulgated the
name * of his ministry , but it is not
probable that Gen. Disz will represent
the country abroad. Gen. Diaz , ho
said , was a man of marked ability ,
and he has shown wonderful force ,
bolh as a soldier , a statesman ,
and executive officer. He en
tered the office of President simply
as a soldier , and was surrounded bv
the most rabid of revolutionists. These
heroanaged _ to handle and enforced a
quiet in the country. The strong
measures recently taken to crush out
revolution in the northern states of
Mexico have had their intended effect ,
and there will be no rising when
Gronzales takes his eeat. Mr. Gor
among the masses against the Ameri
cans as a nation , but individuals emi
grating thither are not disturbed. The
immigration is not large , owing to
lack of transportation , but there is
one thriving colony of Americans at
Tuxpan.
Iu company with Senor Romero he
will visit the north before returning
to Mexico. When asked whether Gen.
Diaz would have any place in the
cabinet of Gonzales , he said that he
would probably retire to private life.
It was not true , as stated , that he
would probably accept some foreign
mission , or that he would travel
abroad for pleasure. So far as it could
be learned he intended to retire from
active participation in political busi
ness.

THE PRODUCERS' KLA.TFORM.
The following are the resolutions adopt
ed by tlie naticnal cheftp trifiiportion con
vention held in Clrcago last week :
liaohed , 1. That the producers and hip-
rlo'S of this country in their contest with
the rttilrdjd nioflopnly desire only what is
right ; that they demand that , snd th t
they will have it.
2. That while agriculture pays less than
4 per tent , upon tie inyi-.tment and lexit-
l-i fl e 1'ikln ss ontcrpiiseg of any charac
ter seldom reach 10 percent. ) wflwillnot
pay rates for transportation of the produc8
of ourfatms to market which enable rail
road officials to amass princelv fortunes ,
live in extravagance , and pay large divi
dends upon the fftce value of their stock ,
besides saving enough from the profits of
their business to mike im > rovements nnd
and extensi' ns upon their lines , which ar $
often moro Valuable tlmhths aggregate of
full dividends.
3. We demand of congress a remedy ;
that it shall pi tee the railroads of the coun
try under government control , enacting
lavB that will certainly protect the pro-
duc r from the terrible extortion under
which he has so Idng Giiffercd , nd that we
will hold our representatives in the iia-
tional legislature to a strict accountability
for their actions in th" promises , pledging
themselves and our constituency to exert
ourselves to the utmost to defeat the re
election of any man to any legislative or
executive office who dees not actively favor
in his official capacity the subjugation of
railroad corporations to the will of the pee
ple.
4. We demand of our respective politi
cal parties that hereafter they shall nomi
nate the state legislature and for congress
only such men as are in sympathy with in
dustrial nnd commercial interests , nnd
who , if elected , will work and vote to
place the pn dncer upon an equal footing
with monopolies < if eve y character , and to
this end oppose all class legislation , and if
our respective p.-uties neglect to do this , we
pledge ourselves to do every honorable
means to defeat the candi lates whi h they
present for our suffr.i ea
it. We congratulate the gr.mge and
faune-is clubs upon what they have dune
to emancipate the labor ( if the farm from
slavish druJgery t monopolies , and ur e
them to a ont nuance of iheir noble work ,
which has been so effective in the educa-
inn of the masses , and such an obstacle to
class 1 gijlation.
t ) . We lid a wfIcome and Godspeed tote
to farmers' alliance , which joins h anils
with the grang nnd farmers' clubs in de
manding those reforms which are requisite
for the prcsp rity of the farmers < f the
country.
7. We pledge oir support to those
journals which support us , and urge upon
farmers the recognition of the duty to sup
port no paper which is not outspoken , to
tur interests.
