VALENTINE'S man Friday Peter
Sohwonclc ia on the witnosa atnnd

WILLIAM WKHTOATK confesses him-
oolf as the assassin of Burke and Cav
endish , and pretends to give away the
whole thing. Wcstnato is away out

THE revenue reduction bill drags.
Tlio democrats bar thn way with thuir
dog in the manger policy. They want
n reduction that will cripple the ad-
minlstsrtion and force a largo defi
ciency bill next year or they want
none. So they filibuster the bill over
the session. '
AN exposition association is un ex
cellent thing for a largo city and a
bolter thing to make a city largo. In
Chicago ouch an association has paid
over $40,000 in dividends , besides
bringing millioiiK on millions to the
city. Its lease , at $10,000 per year
has just been renewed by the cl'y
council , Omaha is not too small to
consider such an enterprise.
N Valentino tried to get congress -
gross to vote $15,000 back pay to Mr ,
Majors , for services us contingent con
gressman , TMK BEE denounced the
Botiemo as an infamous job , which the
Jfc/j' / < Wic and other Valentino organs
very promptly defended. But now
the tables are turned. It has boon dis
covered that Valentino filed a forged
census certificate with tbo congres
sional committee , and the Valentino
organs are all trying to saddle the
whole business on Majors. This U
done to shield Valentino and help
Church Ilowo , Wlmlovcr blame at-
tichcs to Mr. Majors in tliiu trausao
tlon he certainly should not beheld
hold responsible for the forgery , or
the filing of the bogus certificate.
Valentino is the representative of this
state in congraw. He know the pretended -
tended census return to bo a fraud on
the face. Ho as the bosom friend of
Sclmcnck , no doubt concocted tli
scheme to Bond Schwonck on hiscrim
inal errand to Lincoln , and no atnoun
of blftckwashing Tom Majors will eve
whitewash Valentino.

OBB materially interested in keeping
up the embargo which prevented the

Such a fight instead of injuring Fremont -

would have compelled the Union

where they oipoot soon to connect
Ircctly with the Pacific coast. For
lie present , competition has boon do
oatod by combination in the Colorado

B completed wo may expect vciy
ctivo rivalry. The only pro rata
) ill that was aorlonaly tending to crip-

f the Union Patific is the Kansas

pposcd by the whole Nebraska dele
gation. But what was denounced as

Iho Kansas Pacific is now owned by
do Union Pacific , and the managers ]

Phis diversion of the through traffic
over the Union Pacific has loft an
abundance of unused rolling stock in
his section and thrown out many em-

own and Northern Nebraska off from
lie main line of the U. P. does not
von know that there is such n thing
s a Kansas Pacific jlro rate. What
Northern Nebraska fools n need of the
most is fair rates to all and no favors to

Years ago , as far back oa when Tom

furnished to each paper under order
of the commissioners. Papers were
not compelled to beg for them , no
were they expected to ransack the
county records. Now weeks ant
months sometimes pass without u pub

know no moro about the conduct o ;

IT is too childish for any champion
of woman's suffrage to claim that the
right to vote is as inherent as lifo and
iborty. The right to lifo and liberty
of mind and body are the common
loritago of the human race without
regard to ago or sex. An infant is
roe at its birth , and its right to lifo
and liberty cannot bo abridged or ta
akon away , but does any champion of
roman's ' suffrage contend that the in-
ant , male or female , inherits the
ight to vote at its birch equally with
ho inherent right to lifo and liberty

the ground that they were original ! ]

Following history of the legislation by
which their grants were obtained will
clearly indicate : The act of congress
irnking land grants in aid of the Texas
Pacific railroad passed the senate on
; ho 29th day of Juno , 1870 , and the
aouso on the 3d day of March , 1871 ,
locoming n law at the latter date. Il
> pcamo evident to the friends of the
nil upon its introduction , early in the
session of 1809 and 1871 , that it
would meet with strong opposition ,
und , it was feared , successful opposi
tion. In order to successfully combal
with such and secure the passage ol
.ho bill , t , number of the persons
as corporators in the bill raised the
sum of § 90,000 in cash , and made a
written agreement on the 7th day of
Juno , 1870 , to issue $200,000 of first
nortgago land grant bonds of thocom-
iiny : , which , with the money named ,
were to be used in buying votes to se
cure the passage of the bill by the
senate.
The money and the agreement wore
deposited in the hands of two gentle
men. Of the $90,000 so deposited
ho sum of 602,000 was paid to a
collator to bo divided by him with
hreo other members of that body.
Che agreement above referred to pro
dded that the wholo' amount of said
? 200,000 of said bonds should bo do-
ivered to the senators referred to ,
who wore to distribute them to other
members of that body who voted for
and assisted in passing said bill , and
rero so to bo received.
In June , 1870 , a bond was executed
by one of the said incorporates in the
sum of $1,000,000 , guaranteeing the
ssuo of the first mortgage land grant
bonds of the 'i\xas Pacific railway
company to that amount , and which
were to bo used in buying the bill
hruugh thn house , and one of said
corporators contracted to distribute
he said amount to members in the
ionic , and for aucli services ho waa
o receive 10 per cent on the amount
listributed by him ; and ho now holds
.ho said contract , a portion of which
ms boon paid to him by the Texas
Pacific company. I have his letter to
hat effect. Arrangements were made
nth over thirty members of congress
o vote for the bill , inconsideration of
.ho . future payment to each of
.hem of said bonds in ape-
iifio amounts , and the books of said
? oxoa Pacific rail road will show the
names of the parties and the amount
ocoived by them , It is well known
hat the Texas Pacific railroad bill was
) ossod and became a law at this sos-
ion of congress , standing on record
ho 3d of March , 1871. Your mem-
rialist avers that the passage of said
? oxas Pacific bill was procured and
obtained by thcsa moans and instru-
noutalitlps , documentary proof of
rhich , with the names of witnesses ,
am now ready to lay before a fully
uthorizod committee , who may bo
mpoworcd to sand for persons , books

Badly Mixed.
St. Joe , Mo. , Gazette.
The mixed political situation in Ne
braska is becoming highly interesting.
There are ever a dozen candidates for
congress in the three districts , with
Hon. Church Howe leading in the
First which includes Omaha and
Lincoln Judge Post in the Second ,
and Hon. Lorenzo Crounso , an ox-
congressman , in the Third. Omaha
hardly knows whether or not she wants
the congressman of her district , as her
chances for United States senator next
winter would then bo blasted , but
notwithstanding this Hon. John L ,
Webster , ouo of her prominent attorneys
noys , is well forward in the raco. Th <
democrats in this district will prob
ably put up Hon. Jamus W. Savage :
who is about to resign his position o :
judge of the Third judicial district
after uovon years of service. Judge
Savage was twice elected by an over
whelming majority , although the die
trict ia strongly republican. Bo was
the choice of the people without ro
g.xrd to politics , and his politics alone
will prevent him from representing
Nebraska in congress.
Among the senatorial aspirants are
Governor Nance ; E. llosowater.oditur
of THE OMAIIA. BEE ; Hon. J. H. Mil
lard , of the Omaha national bank , i
popular and conservative man ; Judge
Eriggs , who has before been among
the defeated candidates for senator ,
and was also defeated in the nomina
tion for justice of the supreme court ;
General Thayer , who served a term
in the senate and was defeated by the
late Hon. P. W. Hitchcock , and since
then has served one term aa governor
of Wyoming ; Hon. J. C. Cosrin , a
lawyer , who was defeated for congress
four years ago by Valentino ; Gen. C.
F. Manderaon , a lawyer , scholar , orator
tor , and a warrior with n brilliant rec
ord. Hon. John M. Thurston , Judyo
Lake , of the supreme court ,
Crounso and Valentino may also be
come candidates. Judge Brigga ia al
ready actively working the field , and
is canvassing the state pretty thor
oughly. General Thayer is also study
ing the field , but as yet has not put
on his war-paint. The other candid
ates have not openly "declared their
intentions , " but it ia well known that
the gentlemen mentioned have senatorial
torial aspirations. Another candidate
is Senator Saundcrs , the present incumbent
cumbont , but the rule so far in Ne
braska has been one term for a aena <
tor , and it is not likely Hint Saunders
will bo elected again.
The electors this fall vote upon the
woman's suffrage amendment to the
constitution. The bill submitting
this proposition was passed by the
last legislature. The strong-minded
women and weak-minded men have
formed a suffrage association through
out the state , and are endeavoring to
convert hard-headed men to their
movement , but are making little head
way. A few of the faithful are amus
ing themselves by holding weekly
meetings in the Unitarian church
of Omaha , at which they discuss
the rights and wrongs of women. The
recent success of the prohibition party
in Iowa has infused now lifo into the
temperance element in Nebraska , nnd
it is likely that the temperance party
will make a desperate eflort to capture
the next legsliaturu. The high li
cense law _ , however , ia working very
satisfactorily , and it is not believed by
these who are well posted that u pro
hibitoty movement can succeed.

The pleasure goers can find good first-
class livery accommodations at about
six or seven well filled livery stables.
Hotel accommodations are rather poor
for the eizp of the town , there being
not a first-class hotel in town ,

furnish daily business for the police
court , and fill up the Butte city jail.
