The people of Lincoln have reached the
point where they think if they arc to have
n now city charter under which paving
nml improvements can be made the com
ing yrar , that the time has como for the
legislative delegation to push things.
The charter , as introduced by Senator
'
Moore , Im's been printed , and since
printed copies have been obtninablo the
average citizen has for the first time hail
an opportunity to consider and study and
weigh antl pomler upon the document
that is , with its passage , to become law
for the city of Lincoln , There is nothing
in the document which recites that taxa
tion shall fall equally upon corporations
nnil indiviituals.Sconscquently there is no
prospect that any organized opposition
will bo made against It. The member
who introduced the charter stated that
ho was opposed to a stipulation like the
above. The charter committee engrafted
nothlnir in the document touching upon
that topic , and the presumption left is
that the people arc indiffern.nt upon the
mihjcct or prefer to do nothing to an
tagonize the passage of the charter.
The council committee , however ,
that was appointed several month1) since
to look alter the interests of the city of
ficially in the document have hail the
document since it has been printed un
der consideration , and they find ntimer-
- / * } oils cases whore they believe changes not
L only advisable , but absolutely needed.
Thus far , therefore , the charter is not , as
stated , without opposition , but com
promises may bo oU'ueted on various
amendments that will save any serious
delays in the progress of the document.
A summary of tlio changes deemed ad
visable by the council committee will
therefore not bo without interest , and
will incidentally throw light upon cer
tain features of the document , where
thus far all has been darkness. The
charter us framed provides that tlio
mayor's salary shall bo $500. This is
considered by the committee too small
for a city of thu Hizo of Lincoln anil the
work that ought to devolve upon tlio
municipal heail of the government. They
therefore advise that it bo raised to
$1,200. In the aamo way they are in
favor of increasing the salary of
the city treasurer from $1,200 to
$1,500 , per annum. In the statement
ot the salaries of these ollicials , and also
the salaries of the councilmcn a radical
defect was found in the charter in that
no stipulation was made as to whether
the salaries wore annum or per tcrnii
This has , however , bneu corrected. The
council committee discovered also that
no provision had been made at all for a
chief of thu lire department , and as they
regard this as ono of the most important
positions in the city government nn
amendment will be asked creating the
position. The charter provides that the
salary of tlio police judge shall bo $1,200.
The committee deem this too small to
command the services of a right kind of
a man , and believe in leaving it as heretofore -
toforo with the fees of ollicu tlio salary.
In the section defining the -luties of the
clerk the fact that this ollieial should bo
custodian of the city paper and seal was
entirely left out , and they wish it in
serted. They also ask that the clerk bo
reouircd to make the tax list.
Jn the duties of the treasurer no re
quirement is made that ho shall collect
the taxes. This tlio committee ask
remedied , and also ask that the delin
quent tax collector bo paid a salary of
$ ( H)0 ) , to bo paid out of fees of the
ollico. Also where the charter states that a
foe of 1 $ per cent shall bo charged in col-
Icetinc taxes , the committee deem this
inadvisable as the constitution limits the
charge in collecting sohool taxes at 1 per
cent and they consider to make fees
Bamo as those of county treasurer the
lirst solution of the mixture.
Jn the section devoted to the powers
: tnd duties of the city engineer the
charter designates that the ollieial shall
receive $ .1 a day. However , under the
charter there is nothing to prevent his
working and charging for every day in
the year and this radical defect they ask
corrected BO that all work done shall bo
by order of the council. Section 154 of the
document recites that contracts shall bo
lot by a yea and nay vote and it shall bo
a majority of the council.The commit
tee ask an amendment requiring on the
equally important questions of accept
ance of contracts that thu same vote bo
necessary. Jn the above to date therefore -
fore is epitomized the present existing
opposition to the charter or at least that
openly made. Lincoln citizens can very
easily determine for themselves whether
or no the grounds are necessary and well
taken.

THE FAKMKltS' AMjIANGH.
How It I'roRrcs pH In Nebraska nn < l
Other States.
FIU.KY , Nob. , Jan. ! ! 0. To the Editor
of the I3co : The growth of the society
known as the Farmerd' Alliance during
the past two years , has been something
plionominal. While it has had no organ
izing or propagating machinery , no fund
to defray the expenses of now organiza
tion , its growtli has been steady and
healthy. It has to-day strong organiza
tions in Illinois , Indiana , Wisconsin ,
Michigan , Dakota , Minnesota , Texas and
Nebraska. And these organizations
scorn to bo naturally anit steadily assimi
lating themselves into a strong national
society , without any special efforts to
that end , and by tlio mere force of natu
ral allinity. The growth of this society
illustrates bettor than anything ej.o the
tendency of those classes from which the
wealth of the commercial clashes is
drawn to organize for the protection of
thuir own interests. The thorough or
ganization of the corporations , bankers ,
cto. , is driving the laborers and produc
ers together. This is only a natural re
sult , and need surprise no ono. And if
the laborers and producers finally im
prove on the instruction of their prede
cessors in this direction , no ono need bo
surprised at that.
Jn this state there lias been no prcssuro
whatever to promote organization , and
there were also radical defects in the
state hocioty , which naturally tended
towards dissolution. Hut In spite of this
the society has notonly maintained itself ,
but in the past year has shown a steady
growth , auout one hundred alliances
having been formed in that timo. At the
annual mooting held at Lincoln , January
0 , tlio defects alluded to wcro remedied.
A cohesive and harmonious organization ,
embracing the precinct , county and state ,
was provided for , anil machinery for ex
tending the society was established. A
line ritual and secret work were also
adopted. This feature has long been in
usn in olhor states , but has hitherto been
neglected horo. Jn addition to the above ,
provision was made for the formation of
purchasing and selling agencies , and for
scouring machinery , t'te. . from lirst
hands when it is thought desirable. I am
now able to state that the alliances al
ready formed are rapidly accepting the
now work , and now societies are forming
in all parts of the stato.
Any parties interested in organizing
can obtain tlio new constitution and all
other information by addressing

Three Die Brothers.
Philadelphia Times : Probably the
three tallest men that over trod the sidewalks -
walks of Philadelphia promenaded Chest

noon. They wore the Robinson brothers ,
of Iowa. They are stopping in the city
with a cousin , and will leave to-day for

Samuel , aged twenty-five years ; William ,
who is three years voungor , and Charles ,
who is but a woo bit of a boy , being but
nineteen years old , but who , like his big
brothers , is seven foot eleven inches in
height. As ho is young , it is probable
that ho will be the tallest of the three in
time.
The three young men arc good-looking ,
dignilied and unpretentious in their de
meanor. They do not put on airs or st

this great question and many who knew
that there was not the merest chanci ; of
electing a democrat were in favor of Van
Wyck's re-election on this issue. The
majority of the people of the great west
irrespective of party occupy the same
position and were consequently cham
pions of the cause of the man from Otoo.
Van Wyck's defeat is a people's defeat
and one for which the republican party
management is alone responsible.

Plattsmouth Herald : The Omaha
Herald wantonly brands Representative
Gilmore and Senator Iliggins , of Cass , as
traitors to the democracy. There has
always been some doubt in this neck of
the woods as to what constituted demo
cracy from the Herald standpoint , but
Representative Gilmore and Senator
Iliggins were oleeted with the express
understanding that they would support
Van Wyck , and their courage in stand
ing by their colors entitles them to hon-
arable mention notwithstanding the
tipulo of the Omaha Herald man , who
evidently knows little of the political bit-
nation in Cass , anil less of what consti
tutes honor between man and man.
"KXCHSPS , " of Couraot
Wakofiold Republican : Dakota county
was one of the very strongest Van Wyck
counties in the state , and to get the
votes of the people Colonel liaird an
nounced himself a Van Wyck man of
pure blood. Ho got elected because of
his Van Wyok preferences. Aftci ho got
to Lincoln ho succeeded to yoto for the
senator once on the lirst ballot , evidently
because it was clear that no choice could
bo ellected at that time. Wo are anxious
to see what excuse the colonel will offer
his constituency upon his return , for his
treason. This dose of consistency is re
spectfully submitted to the people of
Ponder , who in consideration of tl-cir
yotos were promised a now county by the
some individual.

Wood River Gazette : The Omaha
Herald lampoons Senator Wolbach of
this county for his support of Van Wyck
for United States senator. Perhaps the
Herald does not know that Mr. Wolbaoh
represents a Van Wyck constituency and
was supported with the understanding
generally that ho would do just what ho
has done. The people of Hall county are
well pleased with the action of their sena
tor who need not be afraid of the ma
licious attacks of the Herald. Senator
Wolbach and Representative Kief , of this
county , both showed a proper regard for
the wishes of their constituents when
they voted for Van Wyck for United
States senator. Senator Van Wyck was
the choice of the people who sent these
gentlemen to the legislature , and in
voting for that gentleman thov but
proved themselves true men , If the
Nebraska legislature contained a few
more such men the people of the state
would not have been cheated out of their
chosen roiirnsuutativo in the senate of
the United States.

Wakelield Republican : There Is n

political trumpery and the desire of their

That siii'h is tlio case with the present

10.0K1 voters in the whole state who de
sired Paddock's return to Washington.
His election by a popular vote would

Arlington Defender ! The senate is

the intcr < .st of the common herd of hu
manity is not wanted there. Senator
Van Wyck lias made a record which the
people of tlio state ( us a rulii ) are proud
oF. This is why they voted so earnestly
for him last fall , and why no man dared
to cnntubt Ins claim before the people
with him , yet the Uiuahii Itopublivan
says : "It ho had stood by old-timne re
publicans , straight and undeliled , he
could have been rc-nlootud without
trouble " Yes , if lie had never stopped
to question the right or wrontr ot meas
ures proposed by his party and voted in
a blind way with his party , perhaps ho
would have been elected.
The. wrath of the people who have been
betrayed and cheated out of their choice
will iind vent in future elections and ,
having lost confidence in llm average re
publican politician , they will desert tlmt
party whose representatives ignored the
wisli of their constituency. The republi
can politicians need not come btsforo the
people of the .state ngain claiming that
they can be relied upon to represent anti-
mouopoly principles. In fact , wo pre
dict that party is doomed to go down ,
for the people of the state are too intelli
gent to be deceived much longer. Tlio
voters who sincerely desire just laws
must break loose from the old parties
and organize anew and go to the polls in
a solid phalanx. Doing over to the dem
ocrats will not help the matter in the
least.
The Trim Krleiiil of the People.
Plattsmouth Herald : A fearless champ
ion of the people's rights and a brave de
fender of honest government succumbs
to the treachery of so-called friends and
the open hostility of organized capital.
But tin ? struggle is not over. The relent
less warfare between friends of a govern
ment lor and by the people on this one
hand , and corporations , determined to
throttle whatever of legislation restricts
their uvaracious greed , on the other , has
not been brought to a close through the
defeat of any man. The ringing up of
the curtain upon the hist act ol the sena
torial light at Lincoln excited much mer
riment among corporation followers who
rejoiced at the oveithrow of a ni.m who
had the conr.igo to speak sentiments
which lie near the great heart of laboring
people. Bonfires lit up the horizon and
bands made the welkin ring , while mot
ley crowds yelled in exultation over
the defeat of the Oleo statesman ,
but all such expressions of ill-light are cal
culated to show more humble-citizens the
neci'siity of contmuinir their opposition
to iniin and measures not dedi
cated to the bo-it interests of the
troneral welfare. The close of the late
Lincoln contest mav , and it may not ,
mark tlio mil of Van Wyok's ollieial life ;
but the cause ho represented cannot bo
downed in or out of a caucus ; and bon
fires cannot burn thu people's zeal nor
brass bands suppress their voice in the
interest of equity and justice among men.
Party allegiance is strong , but an en
lightened public opinion regards the
country's welfare as paramount to the
existence ot any party , and the patriotic
man looks upon himsclt as boinuthmg
more than a partisan ; ho is an American
citizen. And when corporations unite to
secure the defeat of a man who repre
sents not only a political party but the
people of his state , there will bo an upris
ing of voters in their capacity as citi/.ens
that will command respect and gain the
asconiHnoy by virtue of the cause they
represent.
The People DcfontPil.
Wymoro Reporter : The defeat of lion.
C. H. Van Wyck for ro-eli-otion to the
United States senate was the defeat of
the masses of the people. But it is no
victory to the corporate monopolies and
their hirelings. The will of the people
is toiind to prevail sooner or later. The
treachery ana corruption resorted to in
defeating the ro oluctlon of Van Wvok
will pot soon bo torgotten , and in defeat
Van Wyck has gamed u greater victory
than Mr. Paddook , who was chosen as
his successor. No mini has a warmer
following in the hearts of the people of
Nebraska and stand's higher in their
esteem than ( Sonera ) C. 11. Van Wyck.
The irreater number of the men that
voted aguinst him find the remorse of
tholr conscience , anil roiiret the course
they took. The men that betrayed the
wish and conlidenco of fhi'ir constituents
and surrendered themselves into the
hands of corporate monopolies and politi
cal pirates , and for four days and fo-ir
nights abandoned their duties as mem
bers of the legislature , except to meet
once each day and cast one
ballot , and adjourn to the next
day , as their masters dictated , are
bound to feel tlio nhurp.sting of censure
as long as they live. tiBv biirrendering
their manhood and principle , and obey
