A REWAiin of § 5COO is offered for the forger of the Garfield-Morey let ter. Bill Barnum will have to bid higher or be exposed. DEMOCRATIC desperation is acarch- ing for another "roorback. " Any thing to save New York , New Jersey and Connecticut. POSSIBLY the Union PaciGc bull dozers don't know that there is a stringent national law governing elections that make it a crimiual oflfrtnue for any to intimidate voters by throats of any sort. " \\iiy , of all other men , was Mr. "Locko selected for the state senate at thin time ? Simply because the water works company wants 'to pull a bill through tbo legisla'ure ' to impose a special water tax on this city. THE General Episcopal convention protests against chnrch suppers , jirab- bass and fairs. The sympathy of ten thousand victimized young men throughout the country will be cxtin- ded to the general convention in their present position. ALT. the business men of Omaha , 'jclivc of party , are implored teen en masse and join the brass-collar brigade in support of the U P. 1ig - latire ticket , of course the business nun will do it. They want Kyner , .Too Fox and Coutant to represent them. THE Republican wishes it to bo un derstood once more , that on questions of great interest it rises above party , and speaks , "not as a party organ , but as a public journal. " Just what the Ikcpnllican understands to bo the peculiar features of a "public jour nal , " it has heretofore failed to clearly define , but in this instance at least , it admits that championing the railroads nt the expense of the rest of the state and howling the old and worn on tune of communist and factionalist agamsOaU' its'opponents , is the one great and snrpasBing.peouliarity , which raises it from the lines of party and places it in.itho ranks of great "public journals , independent on questions re lating to the public good. " To many ut our citizens this new claim of the Union Pacific organ will bo u surprise and a revela tion. Thera are a number of paoplonrho' for -years have labored under the delusion that the Republican were the clouk of pwty aa a respacta- bib covering to its real character as an organ of the Union Pacific. Such psoplohavo long since ceased to be surprised at any journalistic flop of tint sheet , which made it more of a mouthpiece of the great monopoly aud mcjo of au apologist for the cruel extortion which its managers have dealt out to the people ot Nebraska. Bat as "a .public journal , independ ent on questions relating to tbo public good , " no one has conslderodjt. The factsthat its stock it owned in rail road headquarters , that its editorials are dictated by monopoly managers , that its editor receives a portion of his payf directly from thoTpaymsitor of ihoUnicnvPaclfie railroad , have operat ed strongly against any suspicion of the Jcpu6Zican'aimparliaUty on anymitter connectedrdtatriepublic good in which , the Union Pacific railroad had an interest. At this late * day the , organ of Jay Gould will not succeed- in pulling the wool over the eyes ot the "people ofNebraska. ; The pro ducers of this state know very well * "V * what&Bncls are pulling the strings and making the puppets dance the tune of "for the public good " They will refuse to join their voices IJ the pip ing strain of tne Omaha organ in chanting the praters of monopoly1 rule and monopoly magnanimity. They have straggled too hard against pov- nrty to fill the pockets of the railroad managers , to * increase their corruption fund and pay dividends on watered , irock. now to unite with the Omaha J ? < ; juWtcan in showing blowings upon in Jho head of tiuir task masters. The . 7rpuWofflw-njay-oontlnue its-profea - rioits of disinterested solicitude for the nts'o'gjwelfaro/Jjut the people of Ne braska wiHsfii ! regard it us they have always regarded , it , a hireling sheet of ttn extortionate monopoly , masking .s hypocrisy behind the republican tite jwrty. COURT HOUSE BONDS. On Tuesday next , our citizens wil be called upon to decide the question of a new court house for Douglas coanty. The proposition to bo voted on is whether er not the county shall issue 5125,000 sir per cent twenty- yeir bonds with which to build a new court house , the cost o which shall not exceed § 150,000 , and which shall bo completed on or before January 1st , 1882. When a former proposition was under discussion THE BEE gave at length its reasons for earnestly favor ing this move. It believes now as it then did , that a new court house is nut only a need but also a necessity. The present structure is a shame and a disgrace to tbe residents of this county , and a standing memorial to the almost criminal negligence of its tax-payers. Within its rickety vaults , the walls of which are cracking in every direction , are stored thousands of valuable records , the loss of which would inflict the s greatest inconvenience if not absolute loss on every property owner and tax payer of the county. The vault in the oflico of the county clerk , although iillod to overflowing , holds but cne- half of the records of property trans fers andincumbances. The treasurer's office is entirely without vault protec tion , and 'the wooden shelves and desks in the room are filled to over flowing with the volumes of tax receipts and records , which , if de stroyed , } would ! entail a pecuniary lees ton times sufficient to erect a new and safer , building. The ofh'ce of the clerk of the district court , where all the judgments aud court records are stored , is in an equal ly bad condition. In short there is not a public office in the old shell , which now does duty as a court house , which is not a standing menace to the interests of Omaha tax-payers. Will the people -of Douglas county wait until both the old rookery and its records arc destroyed by fire before they wake up to their neglect ? Will they lock the door after the horeo has been stolen ? Or will they nt an in considerable expense in taxation erect a building which will bo at once a pro tection to their own Snferosts and an ornament to the county ? THERE is no easier form of argument than to mistitc an-opponent's position and then knock it down. The Omaha Republican defies a monopoly accord ing to THE BEE , as "all co-operative enterprises , industries and invest ments that tend to build up , develop and improve the stale beyond what mere individual application can do. " It knows Very well that such is not THE BEE'S definition of monopoly. If , it understands the meaning of words it knows that a monopoly is an exclusive ivo privilege , or a power or franchise which by its very nature is exclusive ( and prohibitory of corupatition or has tiuco become so. The more fact of a railroad running from one point in the state to another does not make it' ' a monopoly. But if there is no com peting line the road of a necessity becomes a monopoly as it alone can act as a common currier irh for the section through which it passes. Should such road take advantage l- lt vantage of its position , and extort from the people outrageous charges for freight and passengers , and pack the legislature with bribed tools and hirelings to prevent legislation against , its schema of robbery , it ia naturally | called an extortionate and corrupt itxF monopoly. JClie more fact of capital" being aggregated is not a presumption against it. But the truth still remains that money is powerful , and aggrega isi ted capital has the advantage i'g if theater Bums in shaping or preventing ' legislation detrimental to its own interests 'gi i1. terests and opposed to the public wel 1.1C fare. Enterprises which build up the country and develop its resources are , and have always been wel comed by the people of Ne braska , and charges and prices outrageously high have been borne because the people have wiehod to foster young and growing enter prises aud Industries. But endurance ceases to ba a virtue when such corporations - ' rations , enterprises and industries .have become self-supporting , and take advantage of their position and the people's leniency , not only to maintain - tain their extortion , but to prevent competition and hinder the develop ment of other equally important en | i terprises. * It 'becomes' - unbearable | when such segregated capital attempts to shirk Its burdens of state and local * taxation , and by power of wealth and influence boaatingly and openly thwart the will of the people , which' has brought them into corporate ox-1 istence. THE republicans find it difficult to awaken much enthusiasm in Nebraska this year. Their meetings through- state are not well attended. Liout.-Gov. Cams and Church Howe fp'oko ai Aurora , Hamilton county , Isat week , and though an urgent Invi tation , was sent to all Garfield clubs to attend , and every possible effort was in ado to get up a big demonstra tion , there wcro only forty torches" in the procession and many of them were carried by boys. At Central City , where Mr. Howe had been advertised to speak for a month in advance , an attempt was made to get up an audience but the ' a'ttoippt was a failure Men jrith drums and fifes ptraded the streets until nine o'clock , but no one cared to attend the meeting , and so no speech es were made. The ssme things are happening all over the state. [ Nemaha Granger. As long as such political prostitutes and jobbers aa Howe and Carnes are .so sent out by the state central committee - tee to represent the party , nothing better can be expected. The sturdy republican farmers of Nebraska will not honor such rogues by their pres ence. That docs not signify , however , to that the republican party is weakening as Nebiaska , or that democracy is in the ascendant AFTER Win.

KEEP IT BEFORE' THE PEOPLE , | And 1st Them Ponder Over It , Valentine's Back Pay Steal Ventilated by the Records. \ How He Lobbied aBogus Claim for $1875 Through the Legislature Under False Pretenses. Five years ago this summer E. K. Valentine who had been removed by U. S Grant from the West Point land office for crookedness , packed the re publican convention of the sixth ju dicial district and secured for himself the nomination of district judge. Val entine was a mere shyster , having no better standing at the bar than the redoubtable quack Mumey had among iho members of the medical profession. I When the returns were canvassed by I the state officers who constitute the itate board of canvassers , the board awarded the certificate of election to Thomas L. G rifley , the democratic can- didato. Valentino procured a batch of affidavits to show that there had been some irregularity in the count. He then eecured the services of John C. Cowiu , who agreed and stipulated in advance that be would prosecute his claims before the courts without charge. The case was brought to trial before the supreme court in November 187G , and the court rendered the somewhat extraordinary decision that E. K. Val entino had been elected judge of the sixth judicial district by a majority of two votes and a half. Valentino soon hereafter took his seat on the bench and drew his pay regularly from the atato treasury at the rate of § 2563 a year during the entire time ho served as _ judge. In ho summer of 1878 , E. K. Valentine was foisted on the people of Nebraska by the political managers of Jay Gould for their representative in con gress. Within sixty days after his election to congrees Valentino put in an appearance at Lincoln as a lobbyist before the legislature , and by bring ing all his pressure to bear upon re publican members who had axes to , grind , and roping in tha democratic friends cf Griffey , Valentino succeed ed in pulling through the following bill : | AN ACT. For the ralief of Thomas L. Griffey and E. K. Valentino. WHEREAS , Thomss L. Griffey was by the stito board of canvassers de clared judge of the Sixth judicial dis trict ; and they hf-vins : issued to him a certificate of elect : . n to said ollicp , he entered npun . n1 discharged the du ties of said cilice from Ih G'h rt y of Jpnnary until the 23rd duy of Novem ber , 1876 , at which time ho w.is ousted from said office b/ reason of a decision of the supreme court , de claring ] E K Valentino duly elected to < said oflicu , and WHEREAS , The sild El K. Valen tine ' , by reason of sa.J decision , is en titled to the emoluments of said office fico during nil of said time , and the said GritTey having orawn the salary of said office for tin. i-rst (1st ( ) , second (2d ( ) and third (3d ( ) quarters of said f yar , and E. K. \ . entine having - drawn no part thereof ; and. WHEKKAS , The s-H Thomas L Griffey having perfi nscd the duties of said office frotn October 1st until November 23d , 1870 , under said cer tificate of election , without pay ; therefore , Be it enacted by ihe Legislature of the 01 J- -y TM I " - - State of Nebraska. SECTION 1. That the sum of three hundred and sixty-threp dollars be and the came is appropriated out of the state goneraj fund for the piy- rnent of said clain to the said Thomas L _ Griff y. SEC. 2' That the sum of one | thousand eight hundred and sovenry- five dollars bo and the same is appro priated out of the state general fund tor the payment of said claim to said E. K. Valentine. SEC. 3. The auditor of public ac counts is hereby authorized and dir ected to draw his warrants for said amounts upon the stain treasurer , payable to e aid Thomas L. Griffey and E. K. Valentine respectively. , Approved February 24th , A. D.d 1879. _ This infamous steal was put through the legislature by Valentine under the prelcnso that he needed the 51875 to pay attorney's fees and expanses in curred in securing his title to a seat on the bench ; whereas , as a matter of fact , Valentine did not pay a single dime to his attorney , John G. Co win , and never even tendered him his expenses - penses for hotel bill and fare to Lin i coln. ' Now , what do the tax-payers of braka think pf this salary grabber. Will they endorse this man Valentino who has drawn .51875 from the state treasury for services which were ren dered , by Judge Griffey and for which Griffey had" drawn' pay. Can any honorable man vote , for Valentine after such an exhibit of his dishonesty. Tne Bights ot Passengers. AllnncsoU Saprems Court in & recent decision. Railroad companies carrying passengers - songers are required to have safe End convenient platforms or lauding places for the convenience of passengers , and to stop long enough to give the pas sengers iitno to leave the train in safety. This rule does not require them to wait an unsual time to unable sick or disabled persons to get off , un less ihoy have notice or knowledge of the qondition-of euch persons ; but , if there is such a passenger aud his con dition is Renown Mj.jthem , they are re quired to allow a reasonable time for such person to sifely reach the plfttfprm or landing place. When the car.i Mop at a passenger's destination it is his duty to leave the cars without delay , and the company must give a reasonable time to enable him to do with safety. The exact length of time to bo given must depend on cir cumstances. A longer time would be required to alight when there are many passengers than when there are few ; in a dark night , when tbe land ing place is dimly lighted , than when there in full light ; at a difficult place alight than where it is easy ; and railway companies carry not mero'y for the vicoroua and active , but also those to whoj from age or extreme youth , are "ast slower in their movement than vigor ous and active persons , the time of stopping is not to be measured by the time in which th'e latter class may . will make their exit , but by the time the other class may , using diligence , bnt without ' Tiurry and contusion , alight. Tho'so-in charge of tsaina are bound i presume that'there maybe such peri i sons in the car8 ; " * . " iley knoir they are not , they have no right to start the train nntil they have waited longonough ; for such persons to alight , nor even then without using reason able care to ascertain if there are such persons in the act of getting off. THE BONDED BOON , Grand Island's Railroad Shops Rapidly Approach ing Completion. Substantial Stores and Dwel lings Going Up in Every Direction. Doniphanand its Denizens. Correspondence ol TUB BKH. GRAND I ISLAND , Neb. , October 25. Of all the towns I have visited for Ofm many ; days none have been moro fa vored this year than Grand Islacd. The northern part of the state has been blessed with an excellent crop of both wheat aud corn this rear , and a very large section of count-y is tribu tary to Grand Island. Most of the Loup ( country delivers grain at Grand Island and purchases household goods aud provisions there. The Union Pacific railway company is erecting extensive shops at this place , and have a great many worka men quartered in the city at the pres- out time. When the shops are com pleted , which is expected by the first of January , fifteen hundred mechan ics aud their families will be added to the pipulation of the place. This will support an addition of thirty now mercantile houses and place Grand Island in a position second to none in tha state as a local market for butter , gs , meat and farm and garden pro duce. During the past year the population has been increased six hundred , one hundred dwellings have been erected , and a half dozen substantial business structures added ; and yet it is almost imnossible to find a place to rent , the hotels ere crowded , and very few places are offered for sale at ordinary figures. For the accommodation of its three thousand inhabitants Grand Island is supplied with twenty-two saloons , seven churchoi , two school buildings , and a large hall for public gatherings , which is owned by the Leiderkranz society. George Boehm has probably added as much improvement to his property as any in the place. He has built new brewery buildings to the tuna of Siui 8,000 , and will yet add a new " uud mash house. It is well known io the people of the state , that Grand Island people talk about this becoming the capital city some day , but they never spoke of it before with so much confidence as now , and it is oven mentioned as a political issue for this campaign , and some even go so far as to point out the now capital grounds. The B. & M. railroad from Aurora is expected here as soon as the law will allow the voting of "more bonds. " A just repugnance is felt among the people against the operation of the present railroad revenue law , accord ing to which several hundred thous and dollars of property located in the city , would not be subject to local as sessment , but yield a distributed rev enue It is currently talked here that for policy sake tha U. P. will not oppose the repeal of the present revenue law. But rest assured they are nut inter esting themselves in HO many cnndi dates for the legislature without a purpose , and aomo "nigger is in the wood-pile. " It may bu the twii brother to the rusa of a reduction of tirifls for transportation , which made only on paseent-er transport , while the froujht tariff has baon far inert , burdensome , aud remains the Bime , or it is higher. It has been remarked that the com pany was very careful to announce , through their official organs in Oma hi , that the reduction made was "done in accordance with its policy to place fares as low. aa can be afforded , for fear people might think otherwise and , ' truthfully interpret it as being divert attention from the the idea of railroad regulation , which has been fast promulgating itself among th people as a necessity. . Politics occupy the attention of th people quite fully. Ex-Senator Tip * tonnpoko to about three hundred pco pie Saturday in Leiderkrang hall , and E. K. Valentino will speak from th same rostrum to-night. The nominees from this senatorial district are Morse , of Clarksville , re publican , and R. 0. Jordan , of Grand Island , democrat. The nomineeso this representative district are Fred Scare , of Grand Island , republican and Dr. Stevenson , of Grand Island democrat. Assurance is made doubl ] sure to the railroads in 'securing on both tickets men not unfavorable to them. One year ago the link of railroad batween this town and Hastings , twenty-fivo miles south , was built , and at the midway point , twelve miles Eout'i from this the infant town of DONIPHAN has sprung in o existenceIt is in the southern part of Hall county , is surrounded by a very fine agricultura country , producing excellent crops o. wheat and corn , besides an abundance of barley , rye , oats and potatoes' ' . Those who have already located here are doing a prosperous business , and the town is attracting the attention o thosa who are looking up new loca tions. UpionBroB. _ , formerly of St. Joe , Mo. , enjoy a good trade in genera : merchandise. They began with t. stock of § 700 , ono year ago , and art now carrying a stock of § 2000. W. H. McCullock has the stock of general merchandise in the postotiice block , and is kept busy passing good ; over the counter to his customers. Cole & Alldrege have put in a neat stock of groceries and will do prosperous porous trade. J. W. Ivean is the acoomodating njent of the U. P. rallroa.1 at-tho place. i About two miles from town David Jamesen has one of tbo finest farms in Nebraska. Mr. J. has tire sections of land , a large portion of which is under cultivation. He believes in the old maxim , "anything worth doing is worth doing well ; " and he is ono of the money making farmers of Ne braska. He is now erecting a barn that will contain § 1,000 worth of lumber. A lumber yard , elevator , hotel , livery , smithy and drug store are all prospering in business. PERSONALITIES. Gen. Grant certainly holds up well a man of his years. He listened a two hours' sermon in Now York Sunday. Rubinstein has written another symphony. People in this country be glad to know that Rubinstein ives in Germany. Dr. Tanner refused to lecture to an audience of three persons the other night. He said he drew the line at leven. He must fiave a quorum. JoejEmmet hes written a card In which he'saya that when sober ho is perfectly happy.'If this is so , the gen tleman must have become a confirmed misanthrope. P. T. Barnum is a candidate for the state senate in Connecticut. If the gentleman has avoided selling lemon ade while his circus traveled in Con- Connecticut ho may bo elected. Commodore Nutt was arrested In New York lately for keeping a dis orderly house , but after they got him "nto court ho hid in the judge's plug sit , and thus escaped until after court ad adjourned. "Kincs I have Met" is the title of Mr. Archibald Forbes" lecture. Some day Mr. Forbes will come across three kings and a pair of sevens. Then ho will learn something about he really great resources of this coun- try. Roshelle is the stage name of a St. Joe lady who is winning fame as eco of the first tragediennes of Ihe day. She has a brother-in-law , who is a druggist , aud perhaps he helped her to select the beautiful name. Rochelle - chelle salts for instance. Roshelle salts down the cash , see 1 Dr. Louis Botse , of St. Louis , got mad and acted like a ward politician because his wife stuffed a dnck with onions.
