THE The State Anti-monopoly Convent now in session at Lincoln is confron with perplexing problonm. On the ( hand the hair brained visionaries v imagine Bon Butler has a fair chance become president , are clamoring electoral fusion with the DC ocrata which would call fo the most desperate rcsislai force every republican into line of bal and bury the fusiouist beneath 20,1 majority. On the other hand the a vontinn is wrestling with old roprobat barnacles end flhystors who have b < ca t oil' by the old parties years ago , r now seek to force their way into pul confidence through the anti-mon ollsla. These brokon-down ha actually insist that they are the m available parties at this juncture to i as reform candidates for congrcsa n state ollicos. Such political mountobai : and blatherskites usually possess t faculty of imposing upon farnu andworkingmon by their loud Anti-mc opoly talk , when in fact a sober soco thought would show them to bo uttoi unfit for any publio trust. Unless t Convention can choke off such cheeky c frauds as Colonel ( ? ) Pace and chrot : jobbers like Dave Butler , its wor will not command itself to the poop ] The nmntlo of anti-monopoly may cov a multitude of sins , but it will not at tl or any other time cover a bid recor This is no time for nominating cam dales who are not clean-handed , ai least of all is the anti-monopoly party condition to countenance or nupport nn who have betrayed a public trust in ni station.

Iho franchise twonty.lii fears later ought to bo worth a great do nero , and no doubt if it were put up i motion it would soil for man nillions , thus materially aiding tl : ity. The time has como whu ill BUch franchises should produc lomething for the treasury of the clt [ ranting them , and in this way the taxi if the people would bo greatly lossono md there would bo plenty of money eland land to pay for needed public Improvi ucnta. The Now York aldermen , wh ; ave away the Broadway franchise , wet oundly denounced by the citizens' moo ! ng , which passed several resolutions on f which was to the effect that the oldoi ion "should regard thrmsulvos us forln ate if permitted to pats into obscurit ' ith the rumannts of Iho Tweed ring. f evidence of briber can boy obtainoi ley are to bo prosecuted to the full ox nit of the law.

In Botno instances names of pars were drawn who roaiJoil 150 miles m and the court was compelled to adjon until they were hunted up nnd brou : into court , and their qualifications jurymen ascertained ; meanwhile ih already drawn were paid for standing the order of the court. The republican state convention by nomination of Governor Daves nnd rotary of State Ilotrgon virtually ondot thoschool land fraudsnnd this put the j ty on the defensive instead of placing i an aggressive attitude. The Itcpubl'u admits this much when it says that "G ornor Dawos nnd Secretary IlogRcn i fight it out on the line of a fair oxpla tion to the people , nnd a complete vii cation of thomsolvps. " The Kcpublh says that Davrcs and Iloggon will all that the people have not lost n do by the administration of school land fairs. How will they explain the leas of school lands fora period of twonty-l years at an appraisement of twenty-live fifty cents an acre , when the land nctut ranges in value from $3 to $7 an ac Is not that n robbery the people ? How can they explain av the fact that this land .

Facts nnd figures have boon pi liahcd to establish the truth of all < charges made against the board of pul lands , and more evidence will bo for coining. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ THK colors of Bon Butler nro a i roao upon a green leaf , but , as the C cage Times aays , "If General Bui places a higher valuation upon the fi than upon the ( lowers of the garden , bo consistent ho should have told his 1 ewers in selecting n badge to adop irookod-nockod pumpkin on a long vii nstoad of n rod rose on n green lea What Bon Butler doesn't ' know abt 'arming isn't worth knowing.

From the Omaha IAlly lleo , Oct. Till , 18K ! Kvcr since Nebraska wna admitted i thu Union this state lian boon infca with a gang of land ahnrka who h sought to rob the poopla of fhcir pa inony In the public domain. First had tlio Htato capital ring with Dave li lor and Tom Kotinard nt ita head , \ engaged in the general land business every very largo Bcnlo. They disposed of th sands upon thousands cf acres to air 1 railroads built on paper , and * they m aged to tralllo away the Saline lands , p itontiary lands and public improvom lands to land rings and corrupt jobbi Then wo nad the swamp land rings un the Furnas regime , which voted to g Tom Konnard & Op. , fifty per cent , all the lands to which Nebraska was titled from the national govornm under the avranip land act. It was c < putcd that there wore millions in < scheme. Then wo had the Innd-yrnljli and homestead swindlers' ring , with \ online , Sclnvonck.t Qj > . , as head contt This ring infested northern Nebraska t the Klkhorn valley as dealora and joblj in humcstcads , which were reserved "covered up" for the ring , and sold settlers at extravagant premiums. 1 the most dangerous and rascally rinp , land sharks that has over cursed Nobi ka , ia the public nchool land ring , wh has generally boon operating through I State Land Commissioner , Olon Ivondi It is the influence of this ring , acti through 0. II. Gore , who was a sih partner in the Butler and Kennard rii that caused the following plank to smuggled into the republican platform Jtcsolvcd , That the policy of the sti board of lands and buildings , favorl the leasing , for terms of years , of c school , university and agricultural c lego lands , at a fair rental , in proforor to soiling the same , under the opti given by law , meets with our approval tlioboat _ possible moans of preserving t heritage of our children and providi regular and over increasing revenues i educational purposes. When this singular plank was fi given to the public , Tun BEE regarded as more bunkum , but wo have since d covered a very hugo darkey in that wo pile. This innocent plank endorsing t action of Olon Kendall in leasing t land on option is designed to cover a si pondoua fraud. Wo have it from i liable authority that the school land rl has already pocketed thousands of d lars out of school land leases. They operate about as follows : T state school lands arc first apprais under the order of the board of pub lands , of which Gl u Kendall is the ho and front. The appraisers are pick from among the ring and the lands a appraised at a very low rate. They then forward an application i twenty years' lease for Glen Konda and they got the uao of the land at i per cent , which is about six cents j aero per annum. Largo tracts of sclu lands are thus leased to the ring a then sub.lot to actual Bottlers. Tin leases are granted without notice to ai : bouy and nobody outside of the ri knows anything about thorn. If a far ; or wants to pasture cattle or wanta out hay ho lias to pay a round sum purchase the lease. Wo have been assured that a sinf tract of land in Madiaon county the rii was offered five hundred dollars bon for the lease within a wook. When tl parties who have bought school lau under former contracts fall behind their _ payments the lauds are doelari forfeited by the land commissioner at leased at "option" to the ring at voi IDW figures. It is to endorse this aysto if robbery and jobbery that the republ : an party has boon imposed upon by th nystorious plank in the platform. And Glen Kendall ia the right man : nrry out these swindling operation jleii was up to hla oars in the old su . eying contracts that scandalized the r mbliean party for a number of year md wcro the key note of the rove igainst the old dynasty six years ag a a matter of record wo append tl ollowing list , which may throw son ight upon the political operations of 11 amo old sharks both in Northern ai juiitliorn Nobraska.
