r. CUJMMINOS , formerly of Omaha
has obtained a judgment of $25,00' '
against a Now York policeman and :
dressmaker for false imprisonment. Shi
will probably havn some difliculty in col
looting the amount of her judgment it
Now York , but if it were in Omaha ch <
wonld have no trouble , as our policomor
and dressmakers consider $25,000 a mere
triflo.
VAN WYCK'S little crowd assures us

Jim does not want any help. Ho is tak
ing ample care of himself. It's Van

him down from the polo of reform , because
the higher ho climbs the grcatorhls expo

Hoop right on. Van Wyck can stand

know the result.
' MB. WEAVEII had bettor keep cool ,
or ho may lese that $10.000 which ho Is
offering so generously to any man who
cm substantiate a questionable transac
tion cither in his public or private affairs.
Within the past ton days wo have boon
informed by a late partner of Mr.
Slocum , of lUchardson county , who
had § 70,000 or § 80,000 of surveying
contracts under Boss Cunningham , that
Slocum , undar direction of the late
Senator Hitchcock , paid Weaver § 2GOO
for his alleged political services , but , to
Mr. Slocum's disgust , Weaver , wo are
told , after pocketing the money wont
back on Hitchcock as ho did on General
Thayer and other leaders to whom ho
was under obligations.
BEE does not propose to intorlero
with the course of justice , nor interpose
any plea In behalf of any man or sot of
mon who wonld accept bribes for their
votes or influence in the city council or
anywhere olso. But qulto apart from the
partiality which the late grand jury has
shown for Councilman Woodworth , there
seems to bo a disposition to single out
Councilman Bohnas a special target. The
three indicted councilmen are charged
with accepting money for their iulluonco
and votes. It is not material what amount
any ono of them has accepted , the of-
fonoo is all the same. But why Kaufman
and Loodor should bo indicted for a mis
demeanor only , while Bohm is indicted
for felony , la something that needs ox-
iplanation. Is there some mo'.ivo behind
all this , or is it merely accidental dis
crimination ? By the way , why did the
district attorney notify Ex-Councilman
McQuckin who was indicted last spring ,
that ho would not bo wanted during the
present term as his case would not bo
railed.
TUB republicans of Douglas county
will have to put forward their very best
mon if they entertain any hones of elect
ing their legislative ticket this fall. The
democratic candidates for the state sou-
ate are very strong mon. Both John A.
McShano and Fred Mob have served in
the state senate and have given evidence
of their unswerving fidelity to the inter
ests of tholiMionstituonts , The ; nro both
popular , and it will bo very diflicult to
match them. The democratic house
ticket , however , is by no moans what was
oxpootod. "Six of the eight candidates
are entirely untried in public life. They
represent Iho various olomonta of the
democratic party , but they do not possess
the experience necessary to the making
of good laws' Messrs. Turtle and Clark
were members of the last legislature.
Mr. Turtle is not very brilliant ,
T > ut ho is Baio and sound on
most all important questions. Mr.
Clark Is intelligent , but not safe and not
sound on the question that is most vital
to the people of this state , namely , the
regulation of railroad tolls. Tire years
ago we opposed him and other heavy
shippers who were candidates , both on
the republican and democratic ticketson
the ground that their relations to tbo
railroads were suh as to neutralize their
mofalnoca to the people. The records
of the lost Icgislaturo fully sustain our
objection. Every heavy shipper with
the exception of McShano , voted with
the railroad attorneys from first to hut ,
and their votes on other question were
traded by the railroad managers to Boia
Stout and the Lincoln ring in exchange
for the votes of the Lancaster county
delegates.
TOE HEAL QUKST10NS AT ISSDJ
According to the Omaha RcpuliTtct
John M Thuraton , the Union Pact
windmill , spoke at Seward exclusively <
the tariff because his audience was i
agricultural assembly. Why Mr. Thui
ton should attempt to entertain Nobraol
farmers with long-winded disaertatio :
in favor of high protective tariff Is som
thing that might puzzle the average min
ni that subject is not of especial intorc
to tbo farmers of the pralrio state
Wha'ovor is good in high protect ! )
will bo looked after and secured by tl
combined capital , and the great weal
and influence of the eastern and midd
states. Mr. Thurston , however ,
evidently endeavoring to attract the t
tion of the farmers from the quostio
that they are really interested i
such , for instance , as the questions i
transportation and railroad rogulatio
which are of much moro importance
our people than { no tariff. The princip
struggle in Nebraska and all the nort
western states is for cheaper transport
tion. It is high time that the farmo
and producers were protecting their ov
interests , not only in theory but in pra
tico. The railroad millionaires usual
have no politics but their own interest
Jay Gould sot them the example , wh (
ho said that in a republican district li
was a republican , and in a domocratl
district ho was a democrat ; bi
everywhere and at all times 1
was an Erie man , The railron
bosses make contributions to the can
[ > atgn fund of both political partici
ind are nearest allied to the don
iitttit party. They make no mistake
n selecting candidates. They secure th
lamination of their pliant tools , and the
ho party masters ask the people to oloc
hem. Are the people of Nebraska gc
ng to submit forever to railroad dicta
ion in politics ? Do they propose to al
ow the railroad bosses to continue t
iack primaries and conventions , un
hus force upon thum obnoxious candi
latos ? Are the railroads to bo pormittoi
ny longer to elect and corrupt our log
ilators , our Rtato nxooutivo officers , am
'ur congressmen ? These are some of th
ital questions for tlio farmers , the pro
ucors , the shippers , the merchants , tin
lanufacturerH , and the taxpayers am
ho people generally of Nebraska to coiv
idor.
Look for a moment at the second con
rossional district. Are people prepare ;
9 ro-olect James Liird , whoso fisit nomi
ation was scoured by fraud and by tin
id of the railroads , and whoso sccom
omlnation was obtained in the same wai
nd with the same assistance , bocausi
is course has bcon so satisfactory to tin
lilroads' managers ? The two great rail
Dad companies of thia state are non
sing every means within their power tc
aturn James Laird to congress , but we
innot believe that the people of th <
ocond district will trample upon tholi
wn vital Interests by electing him. II
hey desire to aid in elevating the mot
'horn the railroads demand , they an
b liberty to do so , bnt wo never wani
) hoar thorn murmur afterwords ,
man who deserts or betrays or opposes
10 railroad interests will never obtain
icir assistance the second time , party or
) party. A representative may betray
id oppose the people , and they are ox-
ictod to bo mildly ontroaiod or forced
' cry of party to do what their judg-
opt condemns. If the people are really
IToring from railroad domination , as
oy claim , can impudence and doapot-
a gJ further than to ask or force the
oplo to elect the mon whom the rail-
ids domandr nnd who have time nnd
lin betrayed the people ?
A NOTED CENTENAKIAN.

I all must vrith that there were many
re like him. His-father was nn. Eng-
i merchant , and traced his auocntry
ik to Spain , from the time that hi

jnt of these objects. In 1872 ho made
i first trip to Palestine to make a per-
nal investigation of the causes of the

is investigation was the establishment

J. SinuuNd MOUTON.
Under the circumstances it is no longc
the province of the BEE to keep up ii

The state board of agriculture and th
Lincoln Journal have kindly relieved
from thia duty. Wo have douo all ths
could reasonably bo expected from a
anti-monopoly paper. Wo have f urninhe
the ammunition , and they find it mor
effective than any they can got up , fo
the people don't believe anything the
say.
WHY WE OPPOSE HIM.
Wo oppose James Laird because h
always is the boon companian of bar roon
bummers , political dead beats and dlsso
lute characters. A man is known by thi
jompany ho keeps and Laird has altvay
managed to bo in the very worst corn
pany. Years ago when ho was a residen
if Juniata ho had a narrow escape fron
indictment for being an endorser 01
forged school district bonds and the enl ]
excuse was that ho was imposed on by i
jishoncst partner.
When it was shown by an abundance
> f proof that Lnird had boon a party tc
; ho Stinking Water pre-emption fraudf
lorpotratcd by Simon Kelley , the Hast-
ngs saloon keeper and a gang of Laird'c
itrikors , our high-tonod congressman
rlod to shoulder the whole job npon hia
> rothor.
Wo oppose Mr. Laird for re-election
Tocauso in congress' and out of congrose
10 is a railroad lawyer. A man cannot
orvo two masters , nnd whenever the
orporations that employ and own Laird
ommand him to dosori the people on
ny question ho will do DO.
Wo oppose Laird for ro-oloction bo-
suso his career in congress ia woroo than
blank. A congressman who haa boon
bcont from hia post of duty more than
alf the time and cither voted against the
noifn wishes of his district or has
edged nearly every important issue-has
D right to aolt for n ro-oloction.
Lasirbut not least , vro oppose Laird1 on
: counV of the infamous methods by
hich ho coourcd his nomination ,
gainst these methotfo moro thnn 10,000
'publicans ' entered their solemn protest
trough kho ballot-box two years ago.

OMAHA , NEIL , October 22 , 1881.
Totho editor of the UEK : I wish i
say n few words to Mr. McSivoenuy
frlonda in tins city through the colun
of your paper. I did not intend to hai
any thing to say on this subject if it wi
not n fact that the friends of this impo
ted fraud had the audacity , to hoi
his nnmo on their transparencies , in th
city on last Tuesday evening in the dom
cratia parado. I would HI
to ask those gentlemen a fovr qucstioi
and have them answered :
In the Grot place in what way was Mi
McSvroonoy connected with a aoolot
called the Irish exiles of San Francisci
Oallfornia. Said society had boon con
pouod of eleven members , of which tli
notorious Colonel James H. Plyn we
the loading light ?
Second. I would like to know wlu
became of all the money collected b
those eleven frauds to aid the prisoner
that was secured by the Catalpio froi
the hands of the British government ?
Thirdly. Why did Mr. McSwcenc
leave California and go back to the ol
country 1 I would like to have thes
questions answered , It in time thn
Irishmen in this and other lands bega
to think and act for themselves.Y
have boon swayed too much by party an
party loaders. Now I would asti my fol
low countrymen what has the democrati
party done for Irishmen 1 Wo have bee :
good and faithful adherents of this part ;
and what have they done for us ? 1
what way have they bettered our condi
tion at homo or abroad ? What apecin
benefit have wo derived from the demo
cratio party ? What allegiance do wo , a
Irishmen , ewe to thia party ? Who
claim have they to our undivided sup
port 2
Tnoao are questions that I would lik
to have answered by some of my demo
: ratio friends in this city. I have been ;
; oed democrat all my life , but I am a
present a republican , and I will toll yoi
iho reason why. In the first place wi
were told at the Chicago convention b ;
Mr. Bragg , of Wisconsin , that the Irisi
night go to hell. That the democrat
jirty ; could got along without thorn ii
, ho iitat placa was iho case of Mr. How <
tt , of Now York. This gentleman wltl
> thor members of congrooa waited or
President Arthur to request of him t <
ibtam a stay of proceedings in the caai
if O'Donuellf from the British govern
nont , and after waiting on the president ,
10 ( Hewitt , of Now York , ) also waited
in the British , minietor at Washington ,
tilling him not to pay any attention tc
ho above mentioned' delegation as it war.
> nly gotten up for political purpoaoa to
ileaso the Irish so aa to draw a largo vote
or the democratic party in the fall elec-
loco. In the next place the English
ircsa has advocated tho-causo ofGrovei
Homeland und , denounced JUmoa C > .
Maine. Now I hold it is the duty ol
n Irishman toopposo any an all mcas-
roa thai ) England advocates. Cannot the
Ltnorican people elect a president with-
ut England's dictation ? Da Amori-
UIB forgot Mason and Siiddlo and the
'rent ' atluira ? Do the Amoricaaa for-
ot thai1 the English pzoplo hold open
lootings in both Liverpool and London
ivorlng secession ! Does the American
ooplo forget that England never lot a
lance geby to heap all ) the indJRm-
os that laid in ihoir power-on this coun-
y and its pooploNOTT It
n goinR io ask the question ,
: o the ATJtorican people gorng to vote for
10 Englioh candidate for president ?
ho English proas wanted to know from
10 American people if it was the Irish
pnamiten < of'thiu country that were go *
ig to aoud'a president to Washington ,
lahmon , saturn England liar answer in
ovember and lot her know that the
iah are a. power in this land. Any
{ simian with ono spark of love in his
; art for the bxul that gao him birth
ill not vote for the English candidate.
