VIC JENNINGS AND THE NICHOLSON CASE Ills I'nrt In the ImmtlKntlon nnil While- wnsh Hi-Ing [ font Agulint Illiii'-Judgo Also I'lnillnc .Ionian n llurd Itnitd to Tncl When Candidate. Vic Jennings was not n candidate at all , but merely a common , every day alderman , and Chief Nlcholnon of the flro department had Just been exonerated by .the council of all the charges that had been preferred against htm , the prophecy wns ventured that the things that took plnco at that tlmo would bob up serenely when the next campaign came along , The next cam paign In now here , nnd the prophecy Is now shown to have been an inspired one , for every day Mr. Jennings Is compelled to ex plain something that he has not explained before , nnd as a conscquenca ho Is becoming enwrapped In a network of explanations that seem likely to throttle the wind out of him on Monday next. There were a great many people , demo crats as well as republicans , who thought that Nicholson was guilty of all the charges made ngalr.st him , but the "Investigation , " , so called , that was made by the council was BO clearly n pleco of whitewashing , and not very clean whitewashing at that , that he was discharged both by the council nnd the grand Jury and finally reinstated In his posi tion as chief. Although but little has been said recently In the dally papers about the Nicholson matter , a great deal Is being snlil by men who have n vote next Monday , anil the most frantic efforts are being made by the democratic jvhlpcrackors to prevent those votes from being cast In a way that will net as a rebuke for the present democratic coun cil nnd a warning to future councils that public sentiment will not be trilled with. KventH of the past have- made the present condition of the lire department a prominent feature in the present campaign , so that a few facts with reference to the department may not bo out of place. Some llttlo time ago two new men were appointed to posi tions On the department. They were brothers and both hail been living at houses of ques tionable repute. It Is an actual fact that when one of these men received his appoint ment the expressman had to go to a house of 111-famo on I'lerco street to get his trunk and other belongings. One of these brothers Is stationed at the Lower Main street house and the other at the Upper Broad way. Both have had lady callers almost every night since , It Is claimed by parties who have been acquainted with the carryings on at the engine house. A member of the North Main street team has also had ladles of colored reputation call upon him at the engine house frequently , but a week or so ago the object of her visits be came so apparent that Actjng Chief James Bradley had to give orders that she should not be allowed about the premises any more. While there are some first-class men on the department there are others who arc thoroughly disreputable and would not have been tolerated on nny good fire department In the land an they have here. Several rules were adopted by the council at the tlmo of the Nicholson Investigation for the avowed purpose of putting a stop to the troubles of the past. Hardly three days elapsed before every one of the new rules was openly violated nnd they have been so many dead letters ever since. The action of the democratic council In whitewashing Chief Nicholson aroused the wrath of a host of good democrats , to say nothing of republicans , who did not bcllovo that a man In a public position should bo exonerated from all yharges that might bo biought against him simply because ho was con nected with a particular political party nnd before the slightest opportunl'y had been given for his accusers to provo the truth of their allegations. . Alderman Jennings was the leader of this BO-callecl Investigation , and yet the whole blame for Its outcome should not bo laid at his door , for he was backed up by the leaders of the democratic party. It was a partisan move from the start , and no Individual Is entirely responsible Mr. Jennings Is not the only candidate on the democratic ticket who Is having a tough row to hoe. Perhaps the stubbornest fight la being made against Judge McGee , who Is trying to succeed himself as juilgo of the superior court. It Is a hard thing for a man to occupy such a position for four years Without making enemies. By his decision against the motor company ho aroused the animosity of the company and of its follow corporations. The saloon men have nothing very particular against him , but they dislike him on general principles , whllo there are multitudes of men who have heard him call off "in.CO" on various occasions and have found themselves Immediately thrust Into a dirty cell to servo tlmo for their petty of fenses. The embarrassing thing about It for Judge McGee Is that people of this stamp have votes that count just as much as these of any one else. His action In binding over to the grand Jury the members of the flro department who were charged with betting buildings on flro also met with the hearty disapprobation of the accused nnd their friends. Before he was nominated his elec tion was conceded , even by republicans , but now that election day Is drawing near and the result of the hard work of his opponents Is manifesting itself his friends are beginning to find out that ho has anything but n walkaway. _ JIUNMSON 1IHOS.

Justice Fox's little court room was packed to about three times Its capacity yesterday morning by Idlers eager to hear the testi mony In the ease ot the state against Mr , nnd Mrs. 0. C. Melzer , charged with attemptIng - Ing blackmail. Dr. Mulhern , the complain ing witness , told his story as It has already appeared In the newspapers , going Into de tails very minutely. The attorney for the defense tried for several hours to tangle him In his evidence , but unsuccessfully. Other witnesses recounted experiences with the pair , which bhowcd that the methods em ployed \\cra an bold as they were unsuccess ful , but that money was what the Melzers wanted and that the person of the "wife" was for sale as often ns u purchaser could be trapped.

( Special Tele gram to The Ucc.-Tlio house took itp is n special order the bill 'Introduced ' by Sinvyct- providing Tor n bounty on beet sugar manu factured In this state of 1 cent per pound. Mr. Sewers opposed the bill. Ho thought It would entail a heavy tax on the pcoplu , ag gregating possibly millions of dollars , with out any corresponding benefit , as the price of sugar would still bo ilxod by the trust. Funk of Hardln was first Inclined to favor the measure , but on further- Investiga tion had changed his mind. Ho said that the sugar bounty \\as the most unpopular . feature of the McKlnloy bill , a remark cheered by democrats. Sawyer retorted the mere name of Sioux City seemed to act like a red rag on the prohibition leader. The bill was finally defeated , yeas 34 , nays 50 , which Included all the demo crats and half of the republicans. The bill appropriating $ 5.000 to purchase a dam at Itoncparto In order to open a fish way up the Des Molncs river was Indefi nitely postponed.

The Carter bill to protect farmers from traveling fakirs and lightning rod men , by requiring all notes obtained by them to bear on their face statement of the account on which they were given In order to render them negotiable , was passed. The senate pasod a bill prohibiting officers of state banks from using the funds of the same except under ample security. Also an act to create a board of library trustees In cities of first tlass , and authorizing a tax for free support , of libraries In such cities. Bills were Introduced by Garst , making the terms of all county officers four years. The senate Judiciary committed re ported that school suffrage for women is unconstitutional , and recommended the Rowen bill * for Indefinite postponement. Senator Conaway Introduced u resolution , which was laid over one day , fixing March 23 as the date for final adjoin nment. The senate recommended the pardon of Thomas Urooks for killing a stranger In Council Bluffs In 1SSC , on condition that he forever abstain from the use of Intoxicating liquors. Both houses adjourned until Tuesday. The Insurance companies argued the con stitutionality of the Wyckoff valued policy bill before the house judiciary committee , and liopo to obtain unfavorable opinion.

He Knows No Equal of Paine's Celery Compound. A Soldier Who Has the Courage of His Con victions - Commander of the National Guard of His State. "I feel like a new man , " says Brigadier General W. L. Greculeaf of the National Guard of Vermont. " > 'I do not know the equal of Paine's celery compound. " Brigadier General Grenleaf of Burlington , Vt. , Is'n man of national reputation. As a soldier , ho has the courage of his convictions , anil manlully makes a public statement of what he knows will benefit others. Hi writes as follows : "Permit me to add my testimony to the valuable quailles : of Palns's eel ry compound , which I consider the best preparation of Its class on the market ; From an experience of nearly twenty years in the handling of druga , I am familiar with the medical prop erties of Its various Ingredients , and I do not he ltate to recommend it , especially as I never heard of a case where it did not give perfect satisfaction. "I have used It myself on several occa sions , nnd always with benefit. Last spring , being very much run down and debilitated , I procured some of Paine's celery compound nnd commenced taking It.
