Judge Post in the Bole of a Political Canada Bill , [ With Nance , Cams and Reese as Pardners in the Confi dence Game. Damaging "DiscJosures Which Tear the Jfask ot Du plicity Proai the Hideous Face ot Selfish Aui- bition. An Eye-Opener for the Legis lature , And a Timely Warning to the People of York , Hamilton , Seward , Butler , Polk , Saunders and Dodge Counties. Editorial Ccucipondinco of TDK Bis LINCOLN , Nob. , January 10 It was in the fall of 18i"5 , soon after the adoption of the new constitution tint provided for the increase of our ju diciary from three to fira district judges Independent of the supreme coorh thit i first heard the name of the man who has , since then , figured very promineutlyln Nebraska politicr. Hia name was bron htip in a dis cussion about candidates for the iudge- ehip ot the Fourth judicial district. "What sort of a man is this Mr. Post11 ? asked Judge Like , for whose opinions on public men I have great respect "He is a young man very much respect and admire , ' * said Judge Lake. "He has a natural bent for the bench , and I think would make a very good judge in the duo courao of timrj. ' Among the many young lawyers that practice before me , I knovf of none whom I could recommend so highly. " With each flattering recommenda tion from the then chief justice of Nebraska , I regarded tt very safe to endorse Mr. Post's candidacy , arfd when a few weeks lateb he was trium phantly nominated over his competi tors , THE BEE expressed its gratifica tion in an article thai was very eulo gistic , and assured the people of the Fourth judicial district that th-jy could not elect a better ttian to the bench. My personal relations with Mr. Post from that time to this have always been friendly. There came a time , however , when I was sadly un deceived as to this man's character. In the early part of October , 1878 , we met on the floor of the Lie coin opera hoase as delegates to the republican state convention Judge Poet headed the delegation from York , find I wai a member of the delegation from Douglas county. In political parlance , wo were both enpposed to belong to the same faction. Thepeoplo of York county , whom Judge Post represented on the floor of that convention , are , for the most part , sturdy farmers , and as intensely opposed to the domina tion of monopolies , and especially to the political misrule of Jay Gould , as I am. And in every succeeding con vention their representative ! ) had worked and voted against the U. P. candidates. The delegation of which Judge Post WBB then leader were as earnest and sincere anti-monopolists as any in the convention , but their implicit faith in Judge Post's political fidelity led them astray and made them play tne disreputable role of I jtool-pigeons for the U. P. managers. t When the convention met the I monopoly faction rallied around E. t K , Valentino as their candidate for , joncresa , while the anti-monopoly republicans , with the exception of some twenty-six delegates , gave their support to Judge Crounso. The twenty-six "off sJictp , " among whom Judge Post was the leader , were dele gates from the counties of York , Dodge , Saunders , Butler and Polk the very centre of the Fourth judicial district , and their pretended candi date was Mr. Blauchard , of Fremont , [ twas evident from the outset that this was a put-up job by U. l\ strikers , who had devised this scheme to defeat Judge Crounee Cronnse by withdrawing from his sup port delegates who were cither abso lutely opposed to Valentino or dared iot vote for him , and face their con- itituency. In vain were all appeals to Judge Post to drop his man who had no sarthly show and fall in with the > ody of anti-monopoly delegates , to ho support of Crounso. Mr. Post itubbornly refused to yield , ineisting hat the mountain must come to Mo- lammed that the one hundred and .wenty-fivo delegates must leave their nan , who had been tried and proved me , and pick no a man who had no nore vitality in him than an Indian mage in front of a tobacco shop , and inly mustered twenty-six votes. All the time while playing the part signed him by the conspirators who > ut np this infamous job Mr. Post res profuse with professions of loyalty o the principles he avowed and be- rayod. Up to the very last ballot be irotested that he didn't want Valen- ine nominated , but had obligations o fulfill. What ihoso obligations were .Don became manifest when Mr. Post ionsolidated the 'Fourth Judicial dio- : ricUfor Nanco and Carns. When fudge Post rose in his seat to put E. 0. Carns in nomination forLienten mt governor the maskdropped. Never In my political experience was I taken b ck more than when Judge Poet in a . stentorian voice proclaimed to the re publicans of Nebraska that Carns was the embodiment of sterling integrity and the highest typo of American manhood. So extravagant was Mr. Post's eulogy that in closing his per oration he aroused a general "guf- . Farw" among the audience , when he declared in all earnestness that Carns bad been true in all his relations of life , not only as & pubtic servant , but as a faithful husband and devoted father. The Jud < : G in hia emotional slopping over had forgotten that Cams wan then still a "bacMor forlorn , " and if he was a faithful spouse and doting parent , nobody but Judge 1'oat was aware of it. At the very moment when this judicial Daniel was proClaiming - Claiming Carns aa the model of integ rity , I had the following letter in my pocket : DAVID Crrr , Neb. , Sept. 30 , 167S. Hon . E. Kose irater : MT DEIK Sin -Saving notiied and heartily sCTecingwlth your course toward the UP. . lately , thought X would give you a little of my experience. Icatnchere last fall , after recemng the agency of the TJ. P. co.il at this point Expended about 5100 in Coal t-hed , tcale &c.fter selling about three months , E. C. Cams , of Sew- nrdj came to the county ; they saw fitto _ give Lira the agency also. In about two months mnre I was notified that Mr. Carns had cxchitirr agency , and that I could have no mow Coal. I called upon Mr. Clark and all tbe satisfaction I could get from i him was the information that Air. Carne ] was a state senator and wy vstful lo tlie company ; that the company were under | obligations to pay him for his usefulness , i I , a3 a result , have an elephant hands in the ihape of a Gai noUHeant j Mn Carrs has a Monopoly &c. , In the coal business fur his ti urtICM to the company ; -no has lattlv RO ; the ( jcdunvc agency of the now Btatioa.wtst of n > . This is a sattplo of h'ow the company are working ia o'ir county. Your course in exposing such workings is heartily approved. Yours truly , A. II. COOLET. Judge Post had not-seen this letlor , but was just as well posted about the true relations of Carni's to the tJ. as though he had written It himself. The clioiaxof judicial propriety wa capped at the com-erjtion vrhen Judge Post cist tno solid vote of York coun ty for Otis Ballon , as superintendent of public instruction. I remonstrated , and called his attention to the fact that Ballou was an attorney ; 3ml had no qualifications for school superintendent tendent- , while Professor Thompson tras an experienced educator. Judge Post responded that he had to carry out his agreements. What nort ot a representative Is a man frho would deliberately enter Into a compact to boost men into position who are no- tprlouly dishonest , or whose qualifica tions are questionable ? As a reward for his services to Xanco and Oarna , Judge Post had a walk-away for the renomination to a second term in the Fourth judicial district last year by the active aid of his partners in du plicity. Had this disreputable coali tion disbanded after their last act of mutual office brokerage , I should have buried the whole matter in oblivion. The boundless ambition of those po litical place-hunters is unbridled , and nothing short of "nb'jolutb control of the jstatn will Satisfy them. I have cotno into possession of facts within the past few days that impel me to dlficloEo their designs and frustrate the intrigues that would tarnish the good name of this state and disgrace it in the eyes of the nation : , A cdnirMracy has bean wjat _ nn vV t ; ( vhererjyilr. Banco t3'to/a / elevated to the United States senate ; Carns is to bo made governor ; Judge Post is to become general dispenser of federal patronage in the Fourth judicial dis trict , which ho is to represent in con gress two years hence , while District- Attorney Reese is to be promoted to the judgship vacated by Post. In other words the plot has been laid to concentrate all the influence of Carns , Post and Reese for Nance , as Pad- jock's successor , and Nance guaran tees senatorial influence that will send Post to congress and make Reese a judge. This programme is to be car ried out by a repetition of the disrep utable game that wns played at Lin- : oln in October , 1878 , when Valen tine , Nanco and Cams were first nom inated. The members in the legisla- lure that represent the Fourth ju 31cial dif trict are to become tools for : arrying this scheme into effect. The roping-in process has already be- ; un. Judge Post la making i personal canvass among mem- sera of the legislature ostensibly ror himself , but in reality for Nance. While Nanco professes to bo laboring ror PaJdock , the men whom he con- irols are to throw for Post until Pad lock can be convinced that he has no ihow. Now , I have no desire to see Paddock re-elected , when there are 10 many abler and moro reliable men n the field , but I despise treachery md duplicity. It would be no 1m- jrovement on Paddock to elect Nance , iinl it would bo an outrage upon the > eople of Nebraska to put Uarns in he governor's chair. I hope the farmersof York , Seward , ? elk , Butler , Dodge and Sannders : ounties will rise on masse to enter > rotcst ngninsv. this programme , and ustruct their representative ] to retire Paddock , leave Nance where he is , md support no man who is in collus- on with this gang of conspirators , vhoao only ambition teems to bo to nake merchandise of the highest po- Itlons within the gift of this common- vealth- E.
