ticket , " -which is the same thinp , has been
discovered among the loaders of the republi
can party in this state. The pith of tuo
scheme Is this , that money is to bo sent Into
every countv to buy up leading republican
members of the alliance , whereupon they will
bo expected to write letters for rubllc.ition
against the new partv ticket , union , It Is ex
pected , -\\lll cause a stampede among the
farmers and burst that outfit wldo open. The
Dictator gives due notice that hereafter any
"alliance men who write letters against the
Independent movement -will boknown its pur
chased traitors" I suppose ho sal's this to
cncouraprotho production of such letters and
ns a further inducement I suggest that lie call
a meeting of the executive utminlttco nnd
have them order n suitable bid o for such
writers. The word "traitor" might bo prom
inently ctnbhi/oned thereon -with such other
llttlo emboll-iliincnts as the rcnncd taste of
the Dictator himself might suggest. Such
alliance writers mo to receive all the way
from $20 to § 500 each. I very much regret
that I did not uegln my letter writing later in
the curnpiigri , for now I greatly fear that
having already committed myself I shall got
neither the badge nor the monev. I hive a
mind to kick myself for always being too
previous. If this most wicked plob should
succeed , the gentlemen on the now pirty
ticket may find some consolation inthu rcllec-
tion that the circulation per capita among the
farmers vlll have licoii greatly Increased and
that the dispenser of badges will have been
enabled to mxlio : a small commission ou their
sale.
Republican fanners of Nebraska , hov long
will any of you hesitate 1 K"o good can como
of a party with such leaders. These who resort -
sort to such Infamous methods to stifle free
speech -will surely meet their just x-eward.
Within ours > ehes ue hava tlio power to pro
tect ourselves , Let us use that power dls ;
erectly and justly , remembering that as Home
was not built inn day , so the ushering in of the
mil Icnluin does not depend on the result of a
political campaign nnd let us leave socialistic
schemers and visionary theorists severely

It is Katlicr Severe on the Conuuls-
aloncr of Pensions.
UTAsniNGTO > f , Oct. 1. The minority of the
special house committee appointed to Invcsti *
unto the charges against Pension Commis
sioner Ilauin Messrs. Lewis and Goodnight
buvounited in , the preparation of nropoit
setting forth their opinion on the results of
the invcstlcatlon , The report reviews their
o\Idence in tlio refrigerator case and says :
"Wo lament the conduct ofa public otllclal
who invokes a flno technicality of criminal
law to screen hlinsclE from proper investiga
tion and to hldo from public view the details
of a business which is Icing conducted from
one of the government bureaus and concern
ing the character of which so many and siich
damaging charges have beea made. " As to
the charge of the advancement of pension
claims for Lemon In consideration of his en
dorsing the commissioner's note , the repoit
states : "No intimate friendship Is shown to
have existed between the commissioner nnd
Lemon and there wcro no husiiicss relations
befoio. Whvshould Lemon -a good business
man risk $12,000 on ono who Is nfrald to
have his solvency inquired into ) The com
pleted lllcs system wns Just what Lemon do-
inaudud , and so soon ns established lie "was
ready to undonvrlto for the commissioner ,
which ho had never before dono. though
often consulted by the commissioner nbout
Ills needs durliiK several months before. It
is thus clear that Lemon was favored nnd
uenelltecl. It is equally clear that Commis
sioner Hnum was placed -under obliga
tions to Lemon , something no rugged
integrity can approve nnd no delicate sense of
propriety unduro , "
In conclusion the report roads : "Thus It
seems to us that the commissioner of pen
sions has not properly esteemed the delicate
dutioa and serious icsponsiblllties of his
great oftlco , nor has lie measured up to that
lilgh stantlard.of patriotic consideration for
public service which should prevail In this
department , adjudicating the disbursements
of nearly one-third of the revenues of the
government. The pension oftlco Is altogether
too sacred a place for the development of the
personal thrift and cutornriso mani
fested In tills record , Itwas es
tablished that the nation might
propcrlv care for those to whom It owes a
KriUituda too sacred for trilling. It is a
monument to the muulllcenco of a grateful
iwoplo , anults hundreds of employes should
ho ministers of mercy nnd not stock paniblera.
That the place thus hallowed should have
been used for stock jonbinir or speculation ,
converted Into a spawning place for corpora
tions nnd n. stall for tnrtorlng doubtful
pitonU is nrolloctlonupou our government ,
n degradation of the public service -which wo
think cannot bo too strongly condemned.
If the real and sonsltlvo' domhmls of
the oicaslonbo measured hy the oxnmiilo of

A largo number of the proiwrty owners of
the city who Imvo been assessed to pay dam
ages resulting from the erection of the Tenth
street viaduct , met at Motz's Tenth street hall
last night. Chiulot I ? . Hurkett pif Uied.
Mr. Cornish snhl the levying of the taxlms
been unjust nnd micqutlablc , nndthntwhon
the iinlter wa brought before the council
the members went where the most money
was insight. Ho thoitflit It wns a robbery ,
nnd that the .vholo city should bo compelled
to pay thD tat instead of U helng put upon
two varda. IIo aJvlsed im Injunction M the
proper course topursuo to iirovcntthe tollec-
lion of the ta < c.
Juilgo Lijtlo thought the property owners
should refuse to pay the tat until forced to
do so at the end of ft law suit , Ho was of the
opinion that these iiitcicstod should employ
nn attomoy nnd securonn injunction ntonce.
Mr Wnheley advised nn Injunttlon , and if
beaten In the lower com Is. he thought nil up-
pu.il should at once bo taken to tlio supiomo
court , Ho was sure thosuinx'ino court would
hold In favor of the pioperty owners , "for , "
s.dd ho , "tho building ot the viaduct is n gen
eral nnd not n local linpmcincnt- tha
cost of thu building of It should bo boino by
the city ut large. "
JolinHutlcr thought there had been enough
talk upon the subject , nnd advised making an
assessmontiipon the propeilv ou tiers to pay
the cvponsei of bringing the law suit ngiltutt
the city. IIo snld that each property owner
who would bo directed by the levy of the
'
special tax should p ly a pur tent'on the
amount of his assessment us n lighting fund.

his pipers to Deputy Shciiff .Too Kearney ,
the jailor , and asked if ho could get his man
Wednesday morning. The jailer told the
olllccr ho could have the pilsoncr when ho
called for him , and the latter then wont out
of the city to summon the vltnosscs by whom
ho expected to provo Fmdle's guilt.
Wednesday morning he called nt the jail
for his prisoner , but w.is Informed hy the
jailer that ho had liberated I'mdloy tbo
night before.rlho slicrift ! w.is then called
upon for sin explanation of the action of his
deputy , but repudiated all kno\\lecl oof it
Tlm latter , upon hoing pressed , said ho had
turned ITinuloy out because ho expected a
load of prisoners from Coviugtoti and the jail
was too snnill to hold them.
District Attorney Bnhcr is preparing to
proceed against Ku.imey for this action in
llberillng a prisoner who \\IH virtually lu the
custody of the Unitcn States Marshal. The
penalty lor liberating a prisoner is very
sevcie , and the United States attorney is con
fident ho can plnco the over zo.i'ous ' jailer in a
position whcro ho will not liberate another
prisoner for several years to como.
