THE Lincoln Journal continues to di
tend the school laud frauds and ovoi
official connected with thorn. No or
expected anything else , for it thrives an
fattens upon the dofoueo of fraud an
rings and joba of all kindu.
THE professional beggar ia sometime
wealthier than thn porso ;
who responds to his appoala fo
alms. A Turk was arrested in Woatport
Connecticut , recently , for vagrancy , am
upon his ragged person was found tin
sum of $800. It is no unusual thing ti
find upon investigation that some o
thcso professionals have comfortaLli
homos and support their families in gooc
style , and that not a few of thorn are really
ally wealthy.
WK were under the impression tha1
the last presidential convention hat
boon hold , and that the entries in the
race for the white house had boon
closed , but now wo are informed that we
are to have n woman in the field , MM.
Bolva Lockwood , who has boon nomina
ted for president by the woman's nation
al equal rights party in convention
assembled at San Francisco. Mrs.
Lockwood like all other candidates has
written her letter of acceptance. She
ought to receive the vote of the women
of Wyoming , Utah , and Washington
territory.
IT is stated that among the persons
who have profited by the school land
frauds ono man in Lincoln has made
$28,000 cash in the Lincoln land ring
deal in school land leases. Ho ia not the
only ono that has fraudulently made
thousands of dollars , and all thia has
occurred under the noses of Governor
Dawos and Secretary of State Koggon ,
who are members of the board of public
lands. Yet the republican state con-
vontlon by the ronomination of these
ofliciala has endorsed their administra
tion. Is it any woudor that the honest
ropublicana of Nebraska roaont ( his in-
suit to their intelligence and manhood ?
Heir can they consistently endorse the
action of the convention by voting for
such men ?
A I'KTmrm has bcon presented to the
city council niguod by fifty-ono persona ,
calling themselves merchants , praying for
the removal of the peanut and fruit
Btands from the sidewalks and street cor
ners. It is hoped that the council will
promptly lay the petition under the ta
ble. The proprietors of these Btands
certainly injure no one's business , and in
the majority of cases they cither pay a
small rental to the property owners for
the privilege of displaying their fruits in
front of their promises , or else are grant
ed permission without charge. In no
instance are they regarded as trespassers
by the property owners who
lave granted thorn this privilege ,
Thoynro perhaps trespassers upon the
sidewalk to a limited oxtont.butour side-
wnlka are from sixteen to twenty foot
wide and those elands , occupying only
about four feet , can hardly bo called ob
structions. The fruit stands are all kept
in a neat and attractive manner , and add
i3uch to the metropolitan appoarauco of
the city. They are allowed in all other
cities , and there is no reaaon nhy they
should ba disturbed in Omaha. Tlio
ownera are poor people , and to compel
them to vacate their variouo locations
would seem like oppression. If a cloth
ing inerchiut , a trunk maker , or a grocer
has the right to occupy four foot of the
sidewalk for the display of his oods ,
there is no reason why a fruit dealerwith
the permission of the properly owner ,
should not enjoy the same privilege. Wo
cannot sue what object there is to bo
gained by the fifty-ono petitioners in hav
ing thu fruit stands removed.

LOOK TO j'OUJl S
The most important slop in the loc
campaign In Nebraska Is yet to bo tnki
by the people. The republicans ha
comroUtcd a fearful blunder in the non
nation of the weakest state ticket tli
was over pur up in Nobrnakn , but it
not yet too late to remedy some of t
mistakes tli.il have been made. It i
mains to bo seen whether the state cc
trnl commilleo will do its duly in tl
matter. The stale lickot was nomin ;
cd at the dictation of political boas
in the employ of the railroad
who hope to continuo to rule the sta
nnd control ita legislation. Hnvii
secured the nomination of the Blnta ol
cialstheir next move will bo to have mi
nominated for the slate sonata who w
willingly wear the corpoi
tion brass collar and oppoio eve
movement in favor of logia'a ' tion rcgult
ing the railroads. To accomplish tli
they will endeavor lo manipulate bo
parties. In a democratic district tin
will try to secure the nomination ot
railroad democrat , and in a republic ;
district they will work for the nomin
tion of a republican railroad tool. It
very evident why the railroads are i
anxious to olcct their own henchmen
the senate. That body is composed <
but thirty-throo members , nnd sovontcc
constitute n majority. It is thcrefo :
easier to buy up nnd control the senn
than it is the house of representative
which is composed of ninety-nine men
bars.
It now becomes the duty of both tt
republican and democratic partite -
to assort their independence i
railroad diclalion , nnd conau
the Interest of the public by nom
nating honest and foarloaa men , not on ,
for the aonnto , but for the lower houi
men , who will command the popul :
respect. But above all thingslook to yoi
senators. It is the sonata that the rai
roads will try to capturn. So far as 01
state legislators are concerned , this is <
bo n campaign of candidates with nvowc
principled , nnd not nlono of partio
The producers of Nebraska are tired <
paying extortionate tribute to the mi
nopolica , and they will support only sue

Tholimohaa come for the railroat

ting conventions , and surrender thi
lolitical machinery to the true nnd lion

I bank of Beaten has bogur
lit against the ox-president and
10 directors to hold thorn res.
onaiblo for loasna uuatainod by the bank
irough the negligence of the directors
i the performance of their duties. This
an important suit , and is undoubtedly
rought on good grounds. It is hoped
mt the result may bo ndyorao to the di-
> ctora , for it ia high time lhatsomoatopa
ere taken to impress upon the bank di-
ictors the fact that they hnvo important
utios to perform. It is generally under-
oed that n director is ono who directs
10 nlhira of the institution
ith which ho ia connected , but recant
rents have shown that bank direotora
'o ' directors in name only. About the
ily duly they perform ia to pay an occa-
onnl visit lo Iho back parlor of the bank
ere to kill time than for any other purse -

) t' ' iug concerning the practical work-
's of the bank , until Iho president or
aliior walks oil'wilh everything

sidonco in Canada , whence no
ifaultor over roturns. The directors
en for the first time buoomo aware that
oir trusted agent has boon dabbling In
ocks and got on the wreng side of the
arkot. Had they investigated the af
ire of the bank nt frequent intervals , ns
oy are in duty bound to do , they would
vo discovered the crookedness in Hs
ciploncy and averted dlanslor. That
mk directors should bo held responsi-
0 for gross negligence there should not
the least question. It will not do for

The reference to TUB Biu in the nboi

indopondono of this paper. So far ;
other papers nro concerned wo have n
seen very many of them rushing to tl
support of thu republican stale lickot :

have become so accustomed to suppo

Crook's Indian Policy.
3t. Louis Glebe Democrat.
Gon. Georgp Crook has given the n
jult of his policy toward the Apaches i
a lotler to Mr. Welsh , of the India
commission. Crook , more than an
ithor man in America , lias bcon success
"ul in his dealings with the Indians am
s the only oilicor who has over won am
retained the respect and confidence o
, ho Apaches , the most intractable of al
.ho nutivo tribca. In full command o
.ho department of Arizona , with all thi
irniy at his back , the iron hard of auth
irity haa nlwaya been hidden by tin
; love of gentleness , but none know bet
or than ho how and when to make hii
> ewer felt and respected. His method
lave been condemned by those whc
bought they perfectly understood tb
ndian problem , but ho has mostly hat
lis way because his superiors had thi
; oed sense to trust his experience am
udgmont. There was much difficulty i
oar at o when ho in
isted on admitting the Chi
acahua Apaches , who had surrender-
d to him in the Sierra Madre , aftoi
ommitting horrible atrocities , to the Sar
Jarloa reservation with the othcra whc
ad remained peaceably behind , thougl
Irook' advice was taken in the end. UJ
lie results ho now saya that the report :
re of the most encouraging character.
If the 512 members of that band all save
lie small children and a tow broker
own men and women are now hard ai
ork farming. The Apache had boon
opt from idlonosa and made a producer ,
lo has begun to realize the value of
lonoy and that ho may fill the moaauru
f his needs with his labor. The Apache
quick to know his rights and as quick
> defend them with a vigor and ferocity
mt made his name a synonym for all
mt was horrible nnd ropulstvo in the In-
inn character , nnd rendered it hard tea
a justice to hia natural sense of honor
id robust virtues.
Crook found that Ponn's method was
i olliciont to-day tis when that shrewd
uakor first practiced it at Philadelphia.
In dealing with the Apache , " says ho ,
jontlonoaa , patiunco , intelligence , truth
id honesty nro essentials. " For years
i reflected how host to regulate Iho tur-
ilont spirits who would roaiat innovation
id attempts of diciplino or restraint of
wlcssnosa Family , with oome tnisRiv
us , ho adopted the plan at arraigning
lenders against mombcra of their own
Ibes before native juries , who were in-
ructod in the olimontary principles of
t ? mid legal procedure. The results
vo exceeded expectation. Their invcs-
jations have boon thorough and the
inisomont just and prompt. In ono res-
ct the Apiuhe juryman was found bo
ud hia civiluod brother he was never
lovvn to bo bribed.
Crook first applied hia policy to the
laches in 1873 , 74 and 75 , but during
i removal from the department of An
na , for some years , the good results ho
d attained were nullified by the acts of
urks in the posts of Indian agents and
oir abettors , who plundered the Indt-
3 right and loft , until the latter lost nil
nfldonco in the government and were
the brink of an outbreak. It required
, of Cook's tact and inlluonco to keep
om at peace till an adjustment could bo
ido. lie bellovos that had there not
on such an interruption of their pro-
osi in the path of civilization , the
jiachca would now , nt least mnny of
om have been fairly well qualified t
oaivo the olaotivo franchise , or , with
tlo doubt , have been solf-supporting
d Kouwally prosperous. Crook finds
o Aiiacht-a now beginning to bo anxious
follow agriculture and stock raising ,
give their children to the ech.iolu ,
d with a general inclination to make
Jiioy. To ha\o nwakenoU such
sires in the breast of auch Bwagoa lus
no n very long ways towards solving the
blom ot huv to produce a good Indian
thout killing him. It is not them
uractorof all the tribes to produce suoli
niltfl , at leant not without ottorta last-
? through generations. But when
in , Crook closes his letter by uayim ;
it llieru is not in the state of I'onnsyl-
ilia n village of the same population
ire peaceable or law abiding than tha
100 Apaches on the San Curios rosor-
lion , ho presents an extraordinarily
iing case , and seeina to have demon-
atcd the possibility of making peace * .
and useful citizens of those hitherto
pUctblo freebooters of the plains , It ,
is not to bo expected that the red ta
which binds the Indian bureau can re a
ily bo cut so that the methods Crook h
found so efficient may bo applied in otli
quarters , but the results he gives nro
gratifying that It ia Impossible th
should not have influence in coming lc
islation on the Indian problem.

Four Millions.
iVall Street News.
The railway magnates are getting mod

if dollars that each is asking for jus
low. That sum comes from unwillinj
lontributors a good daal more reluct
mtly than § 10,000,000 did a year o
,170 , ago.
Mr. Vanderbilt was reported to havi
: omo down from Saratoga two or threi
rooks ago especially to pay a float
ng debt of § 4,000,000 for the Now Yori
Central.
Erie wanta more money to pay i
loating debt , nnd the amount nnmoc
3 § 1,000,000 , although n good deal more
han that would undoubtedly bo accept

The Louiavlllo & Nashville also fixoi
ho nmount it would like nt $4,000,000 ,

oldora will bo required to put up to paj

lonoy so put up ia not irretrievably losl

Lake Shore's report to the railroad

Now York and Now England , which is

But it ingroutly to the credit of poor

a public man nro to go unrobukod , it
nkons the standard of integrity in pri-
