vn , In. , Oct. 21.-There Is n bitter
wnr nt Independence and excitement runs
high. After the August races at the cele
brated kite-shaped trotting course the pro
hibitionists of Independence roasted .Sheriff
lllff for allowing gambling , pool selling and
liquor soiling to go ou unmolested.
The sheriff resolved not to trot Into the
sarao trouble this time , and on Thursday
wont out , to Uush park , where he
stopped the wheel of fortune nnd
pool selling. Mr. Williams , the owner of tno
race track , was Indignant , yet could not help
hlmsolt. Friday the sheriff slatted out to
repeat his closing process , but a friend telegraphed -
graphed Williams that the sheriff was com
ing , und the places were found closed.
Williams was thoroughly aroused. Ho said
when ho built his track in Independence two-
thirds of the stores were vacant. Now there
is not nn empty building. If persecuted fur
ther in this matter ho would plow through
his track , plant it to corn nnd move away.
Business mon nro also indignant. They
say they have done n tremendous business
because of the races. The horsemen , judges
nnd others are leaving Independence on
every tram. Sheriff lllff Is seizing nil the
beer which comes In sight nnd pandemonium
reigns supremo. There is no tolling what
the outcome will bo. Indignation meetings
nro being hold and business men declare
they will not submit to liavinc the town thus
handicapped.

The meetings of the Omaha Kennel club ,
which are hold nt the club rooms on tha flrst
Tuesday or every month , prove that its mem
bers are determined and are successfully
bringing that institution into a state of dn-
velopmcnt of which Omaha may well feel
proud. At a recent meeting it was announced
that the Oinuha Kennel club had applied
for and had been accepted as a mem
ber of the Amoric.m Kennel ciub
thereby placing It on the same standing as
all the other great kennel clubs of America.
The members that are i keeping the club
together deserve more than ordinary credit.
In all largo cities of tbo union , and
in fact in many small cities , the in
habitants boast , and proudly , of a kennel
club. These Institutions , when con-
ductcj under the auspices of the American
Kennel club , as the Omaha club will bo ;
toud to. largely advertise thu city in n way
that roaches persons who would not other
wise bo interested. They inaugurate and
conduct bcncn shows which bring visitors
by the hundred to the city , and by so doing
they constantly kcop the name of Omaha
bofbro tn.d public and wealthy persons of the
cast , for bo it known that all the great dog
fanciers of the country are rich men and
capitalists.
At the last meeting the set-rotary rosipncd
his position by reason of his having otner Im
portant business which occupied the whole
of his tlmo. MI * . Waterman was therefore
entrusted with the duties , and will till the
position during the unoxpired term"of his
predecessor. Many gentlemen of the club
have recently made some valuable purchases
In the way of dogs , and should the club de
cide to hold a bench show lioro during the
coming winter , Omaha will bo treated to an
exhibition of valuable nnd well bred dogs
second to none in the great west.

last April. An ofllcial of tha Maple Leaf

Ignatius Donnelly , the famous author and
former member of congress , a leader In
tlio farmers alllanco and prominently
mentioned for the presidential nomination of
that parly , sued the Pioneer Press for $100.010
us actual damages on account of the publica
tion of February lli. IS'JI , of n letter from
Colonel W. S. Ki'ng , formerly postmaster of
of the house of representatives , und u man of
national reputation , which letter had been
tlrst published in the Pioneer Press eleven
years previously. It was on account of
the iillcuntions of bribery made
in thnt lottcr that Mr. Donnelly brought
tlio suit , for tno grcatcstamountovur asked in
a suit ny an individual against a nowspapcr.
riiu- Pioneer I 'i-css In Its defense was at the
great disadvantage that all tlioevonts alleged
In the leuor happened during and prior to
session of congress closing in ISIl'J. and with
the exceptions of Colonel W. S. King and
C. P. Iluntmgton of the Southern Pa
cific railro-ul , no ono was nllvo who
could assist the Pioneer Press in its
plea of Justification. Colonel King was thu
chief end almost the only witness. His
testimony was very explicitly to tbo effect
thnt Mr. Donnelly had both offered and
nrceptod bribes while a member ot congress.
Mr. Donnelly's testimony consisted of a Hat
denial of all testimony unaccompanied by
documentary or corroborative evidence ,
apparently relying upon the con
tradiction to break the force of
Colonel Klngja. testimony. As to the
evidence given" touching the alleged recep
tion of briues wb1lo a member of congress ,
Mr. Donnelly explained that ho received the
money for services as attorney , and as to that
paid out by him when a candidate for' the
United States' sfiiialo , ho saltt it was 11101103-
loaned. Tlio case was therefore reduced to a
question of the credibility of Colonel King
and Mr. Donnelly' , which the Jury had to de
cide. , . ,
The jury wa's out tlirco hours and nt ono
stage stood eleven to ono In favor of the
Pioneer-Press. , , , '
The case lasted five days and was closely
contested at nl p'oints. Mr. Donnelly Is said
to have been urged to bring the suit by his
alliance friends. ) vho Insisted ho must clear
himself of the charges made.

Uncomplimentary printed or written
coiniLonts on Russian nll'nirs do not
usually puss through the Ktisstiin mails

Kcniinn complained tlint the Century
was mutiliitcd before it ranched his
bunds when hovis ; in Russia. , although
lie had presented loiters und passports
of exceptional strength to the Russian
ollloiuls. The Ainoi'ioan Hebrew of the
current issue .prints ) a. fae-siniilo of one of
its pages as It appeared nftor tlio Kus-
sinn cepsor pot through with it. Two
paragraphs had been covered with black
inlc in sueh a way as to completely de
stroy them. Ono paragraph thus oblit
erated referred to the sympathy expressed
pressed for tlio Russian .lows by Stop-
naik and Kantian. Tlio oilier challenged
Goldwin Smith's understanding of the
Russian question. The censor is said to
hnvo several ways of atrildnjr out objec
tionable passages in periodicals or books.
Sometimes they are cut or torn out , but
the more frequent way , when the pas
sages are small , is to "caviare" them.
In this proccbs they are blacked out "by
moans of a reet.'tngular stump which has
about the width of tin ordinary newspa
per column , and which is 'cross-hutched'
in such a way thatwhen inkctt and pressed
upon tlio paper it makes a close network -
work of white lines and black diamonds.
Th peculiar mottled or grained appear
ance of a page of princ that has boon
blacked out with this stamp suggested
to the Russian readers a descriptive
slang term for it , namely , 'caviare. '
Any ono who lias over seen the black
salted caviara of Russia spread upon a
slice of bread and butter will appreciate
tlio felicity of tlio metaphorical com
parison. From the noun a verb has been
formed , ami every Russian now under
stands that 'to caviare' means to 'black
out' an objectionable page or paragraph
by pressing upon it tlio censor's stamp. "

Now England Magazine : It is the
favorite theory of political writers that

arising out of the fact that tlio dominant

from the Puritan , and in the soutli was
descended from the Cavalier. It is now
established that no such ditTorenco of
