To tlic Bailer of tlic BEE : The retire
ment list promised the Hun so long ago
has been greatly delayed by the difficulty
of getting nnmcs and correct dates. The
t tsk is much more than 1 bargained for
at the In-ginning and I am free to say
that if 1 baa it to do over ngaln 1 would
lint undertake it. The list is now done
by years down U > 1007 and I gladly suntl
the first batch of lire years from 1S05 to
1H01. It is nccesiary to rcpublish the re
tirements for 1800 as the previous list
published was so Inullv und so many
names were omitted that it cannot be re
lied upon as correct
A great many olllccrs and citizens have
written here to know how they could ob
tain the full list of retirements. In reply
Iwill Ray it can only bo obtained from
the columns of the Hin : , as well as much
oilier important military matter. The
best way would bo to subscribe for the
weekly or daily Uni : in which it appears.
The ISu : is the only paper in the United
States in which the full retirements of
the army will be published. Cut out the
columns , paste them in a small bhick ,
book and you will have as nice and dur
able a pamphlet as jou want , and which
will probably last you until your time
comes when the subsequent proceedings
will not interest you any more.

TIU ; PKopLiJi TO HIE rr.oM1.
Dny of Justice ntut
Will Keen Dawn.
PJ.CM Citnr-K , Feb. 9 [ To the Editor
of the 1SEE ] There is a fabled tradition
thnt Uanquo's ghost would not down.
Fables teach n moral. There is n fruit-
tul Tact presented when the statement is
made that the corporate power has not
shown even the slightest move towards
downinc , nt the people's many com
mands. Like manj- other questions preg
nant with fearful facts , which the Ing-
panV- world has finally righted , so uiU
the great que5tion of the present ho ; r be
soivtd. Jt were painful , and perhaps
unfruitful to daily recite the rrrcvious
wrongs to which struggling producers
ore subjected.
The man who enters beyond the gates
of wlmt corporations call their own , nnd
there , in the glory and glitter of position ,
wealth and power , raises n feeble xoicc
ucainst their encroachments , is at
once hooU'd fit nnd hounded b.y the
horde of hirelings always ready to do the
bidding of their dishonest masters. He
is branded "demagogue" and "hypo
crite. " With the money wrung from
the toiling masses , these most un
common carriers build great newspapers
to assist them in their unholy schemes.
After the robbery is completed they are
used to bear false witness in saying tli.it
the perpetrators are honest and respecta
ble , and with large headings and many
words , labcllthe outrage a "Public Hcti-
efit. "
Smooth and oilv tongucd scoundrels ,
men who-o brains never created an hon
est nor Micred thought , whose hearts are
stone nnd whoso lives have been one long
chapter of betrayal nnd dishonor , are
prominent in the politics of our country.
J'hpy nil receive a royalty on their do-
bauchcry and jobbery from some rail
road or other corporation.
I5ut the time is coming. It is now near
at hand. The train to contain the cars
of righteousness and justice is lining
made up. It will soon be thundering
along. Jt will stop at every station. No
passes will bo issued to the talc-bearers ,
sneaks and go-betweens. But nil honest
men , rich or poor , can ride , nnd ride
free. Then , oh ! yo daunlle-.s and fear
less bribe-givers. K-ethmj : with corrup
tion nnd scarred with trickery , listen
and lookout for the loeoruothe !
The "demagogue" is prolilic. He is
sturdy , strong and powerful. His num
bers are increasing. His following is
respectable. Armed with the e weapons
which are eternal truth , iu = tiee and lib
erty they nro enlisted to battle to the
end. The mask of the hypocrite in poli
tics has been torn off , nnd with its rend
ing the Rt-ales have fallen from the eyes
of those so long deluded.
There is a wilderness aheid. Itis filled
with political bushwhackers and gueril
las. With nets and traps to ensnare and
allure and deceive. But the pioneers nro
recruiting , and under their banner thous
ands of sturdy producers ure enlisting.
They will never falter. The scoffers have
lungs of wonderful and fearful capacity.
They will hiss and howl. The procession
will go on and on. Van Wyck's defeat
has caused the liriuc of the lir t gun.
When the people saw the infernal und
corrupting influences tist-d to dufeat that
iillant : man it was us the tiring upon
Fort Sumpter. The war is upon us.
When the immortal Lincoln said that u
house divided against itself could not
stand that this country must be all
slave or all free , the situation was rela
tively the satinas it is to-day.
The proposition agnin presents jtst-lf.
A house divided against itself cannot
stand. This country cannot exist part
railroad and part free. It must bts all
railroad or all free. It is a mighty and
momentous question. They have again
shot into our homes. No\v , let u rally
'round the ballot-box , and so sure us
there is a ( iod in heaven , \ietory
Trill crown our hallowed work
Listen not to tin- railroad attorney , the
small-calibre and. smooth-iiorf li-llow who
is numerous in every county seat lie has
sold his intluenco for a pa.ss. Give no
carlo the "prominent politician , " who
comes and tells you how to vote cr talk
You know your own business , lleod n > t
the assertions and boasts and claims of
the subsidized country weekly , the editor
of which , tor the sweet privilege of lid-
ing on a pass and being known at head
quarters as "all right , " lias sold his soul
and would seek to deceive those to whom
ho owes his miserable existence. Avoid
the played out tmrty politician , whoxvas
once respected tind honored in your
county , but who bj bae betrayal has
been kicked out , and who wears his old
clothes watching and wait ng to bleed
some candidate The railroad's nominee
is his man for from him he gets his
money. Keen away from him , lor he is j
without iionor. Like Esau of old , he has
simply sold his birth-right for a mess of i
pottage. Avoid , al : > o. the man who yells
for party , ind in BO doing denounces j
principle. He expects to run for office
in u year or two , unit at the sacrifice of t
his own and his friends interests he is <
blind to everything but spoils. Look at
vour voting on a business proposition.
Believe only the newspapers who.se past
history shows them to be sincere and
honest in their utterances. An interested
politician , like a palesmtin , will tell you
his troods are the bent.
"Know Thyself" is n good motto.
Learn thy ways might be another. Have
the manhood and candor to say you are
oppressed , your family is oppressed ,
your neighbor * ore oppressed and the
cottnlry around you is going to ruin. "J
must buckle on the armor und fight lor
mv home. "
iJvory chattel mortgage on the cow ,
the horse , the machinery or the crop is a
reminder that you have been robbed by
the railroads. To give up two bushels of
cornlo ship one is a suicidal undertak
ing. It pnts a plaster on your posses
sions. It blights ambition. Makes you
ragged and hungry. Makes a slave of
yourself and vour family. It has all the
attendant evils of intemperance. There
is no appetite to overcome. No shumo
or disgrace attached. It is simply to ri.se
up in righteous wrath and say"I have
been robbed for years , but it must end
here. " Then cot oul on election day a
lone ways ntiead yet and cast a ballot
for some honest man who cannot bo ca
joled , 11 uttered or hoodwinked , u man
who will vote ui-'uitist this legalized high
way robbery A legislature composed
of such men would work wonders even
more marvelous than miracles And it
can bo easily done , , I have prescribed
the treatment early and lonir in advance.
So Mr. Editor , keep the HEE buzzing
to the ears of houest men there is a
melody in its hum. ' 'JUSTICE. "
THE BAPTIST 1TMVEKSITV.
The Question or Location Considered
No Conclusion Beached.
A meeting of the Baptist Educational
society of Nebraska met at the Baptist
parsonage in Lincoln , Fi-bru.-iry 3 , Presi
dent L. 1) . Holmes , of Omaha , m the
chair. After some preliminary business ,
such as reading minutes , unu committee
reporU , an opportunity was given to
Iho representatives of the different lawns
in the state lo present iheir bids for Ihe
proposed Baptist church. Nebraska City
'
first responded , offering , through Rev.
J M Wlritehead , f 1".0 > 1 worth'of prop
erty ami f I'l.O'1' ' * ' , on the simple Condition
that the. school be located thero. It was
claimed that this was n good location
fora Baptist college , bfing on the line be
tween Nebraska and Missotiti , and near
Iowa nnd Kansas , we could extend our
paternal svrm51 to rt" tnc surrounding
states. Omaha next , responded in brief
speeches by Kev. A. U. Clark , J S.
liciclinrdsoii fltid L. I ) Holmes. They
thought there would be no difficulty in
obtnii.inc $200,0X ) in that city for a
grand institution to be called the Omaha
university , provided the Baptists of the
state would raise $ ltx > .0 > 0 and
give Oinnlia ft C"f > d presenta
tion in the faculty anil board of trustees.
It was claimed that as the Baptists
linve no well endowed Institution of h gh
order west of Deni on , Ohio. Omaha
would be a good place u > locate a grand
metropolitan tin'versity ' , Mich as should
extend its inrluem-o all over llugreal
northwest. This all sounded well and
looked grandly , but someof us wanted to
know how the seven or einht thousands
of Nebraska , with all their evpenses and
burdens of n new country on their hands ,
were going to raise tinfl03,0'iO , I'U-n
granting that some help might be re
ceived from Hit1 east.
Grand Island then came forward with
n written oiler signed bj three responsi
ble men , proposing to enter into
bonds to deed to the denomina
tion in fee simple $103,010 worth of town
property in Grand 1-land , including
twenlv-livo ncres for college grounds
and f > 40 citv lots 'j his otler was mmle
by Mr. C. W. Scnrfl. on the simple condi
tion that the school be located in lirtud
Island. They also oflered .flO.OOO in
monev , provided the denomination raises
sr > 0WO ( xvithin two jcars. 'J hese oflVrs
were all considered quite liberal and
were very highly appreciated.
But as we EaJ not yet secured the ser
vices of a man to act nt present as finan
cial secretary , and werejiot in n posilion
to proiocute with sufficient vigor the
work that would devolve on the board , it
was thought best to defer final action in
locating tln < school until the next meet
ing in Edgar , the first week in Mny.
J'his educational question is enlarging
all the time. It crows so rapidly that the
members of the board * earcejj know how
to take hold of it. At our first meeting
in November , at Hastings , $10,000 was
otlered. At the second in Lincoln. No
vember 80 , WO.OOO was ofli-rcil on the
simple condition of localmg ilie school.
At our last meeting. February S. S-KXt.ooO
was oflered unconditionally. While we
"
are all glad to see the way "opening and
the cnthuftiasm manifested by the dim-r
ent towns competing for the' school , we
are aware lhat the acceptance of any of
these oilers involves a great responsibil
ity , the takinc up of a great burden
never to be laid down. The question has
been growinc also in another direction.
At our first meeting an academy or semi
nary was contemplated by some of us.
At the second we all had our minds on a
college. At the third a grand university
loomed up in the minds of many. There
seems to be a disposition on the part of
the Jocat.ng board to make haste slowly ,
to consider well all questions connected
with the locating of an institution of
learning. There is but little doubt that
the question will be decided at the May
meeting. There will lie plenty of time
for the competing places to work up
their propositions and have them in such
form that they can be easily uuder-tuod
and taken hold of.
