called to It Ih somcthlng like dIrect manner
the great majority of the agricultural 1m-

easter states who enjoy valued trade re-
latons with the people ot Nebraska , would
cheerfully and promptly fail Into line.
Our Mr. Allen will be In Omaha tomorrow :
and the day tolrowlng , and wl do himself
the honor to cal upon you It he finds any

Lincoln News : The general opinion of
publIc men and polIticians now temporarily
resident In Lincoln Is that Darrett Scott
Is i not dead , but that he was n party to the
scheme to run him off under the retense
that hIs enemies had killed him I ) Scot
S had been murdered It , would not have been a
difcult task to find his remains Since they
are not 10 be found after a ' 'ek has passed
away since the aleged assault there Is 1
gradually growing presumption , that bo Is
still 'very much 'alive. I Is difcult to be-
.llevo ihat It there had been such a hatred
existing In the breasts of Hol county farm-
era against Darret Scott I would have
smouldered so long after his pitiful sentence '
ot five years for stealing $80.000 had ben
nullified temporarily by time supreme court's
action In admitting him to bond In bait the
amount of : h16 theft. Vengeance of that sort
the vengeance that demands the letting ot
blood Is Is of the quick , violent flaming sort .
not the deliberate and premeditated working
ot the mind. Again 1n searching for the
perpetrator of { crIme , motive Is the first
S thing considered , and It must be admitted
that the men who were Darrett Scolt's
fellow embezzlers and and the men who had
pledged $40,000 worth' of their property for
his appearance when his case was again
called , hM I greater motive for 'havlng him
disappear than any or the outrage taxpayers
ot Holt county for ImbruIng their hands In hi
blood.
