    THE OMAIIA DAILY WEDNESDAY , JULY 1 , 1803.
rccnlvoJ your most remarkable lot'er. In whlrh |
letter you peak of a "dual government" and
"with Its attending conflict ot authority and
unseemly strife and contention among thoto
whoso duty It li to conserve peace. "
Again you My : "The appointment at this
tlmo of a new hoard of fire and police com
missioners , and the attempt , etc. , would result
In Inevitable disturbances , provoke street
brawls. "
Again you refer to "tho largo number of i
men In the cl.ty of Omaha organizing and
holding frequent meetings with the avowed
expectation of becoming a pirt of the jollce
force under the provisions of the law at au
early day. "
In reply to thl , I have the honor to say ,
sir , that the people of Omaha are a law-
abiding people , and your aspersions against
the good people of that city are entirely
without foundation In fact , and can bo but
the product of an unusually excited mind.
For the last two days I have commingled
with the people of Omaha and talked with
a very large number upon the very subject
you allude to , both before the reading of your
communication In the press and after , and
did not discover any such factg to exist as
you assume , No person , directly or Indi
rectly , cold or Indicated anything from which
even the most timid and Imaginative mind
could have Inferred anything of the kind you
refer to ,
The people of Omaha expect to submit to
the law , while at the same time they look
upon the executive officers of the state for
the enforcement of the laws.
UEFnilS TO TUB POLICE TROUBLE.
As a proof of the forbearance of the good
people of Omaha I desire to call your ex
cellency's attention to the provisions of an
net passed In 1SS3. See chapter II , page 403.
Session Acts of 18S3. In the first section It
Is made unlawful for any person or persons ,
association , company or corporation to bringer
or Import Into this state any person or per
sons , etc. , for the purpose of discharging
tha duties devolving upon police olllcers.
"Section 2. That no mayor , sheriff or
chief ot police , or board of police commis
sioners shall appoint any under sheriff or
deputy for the protection of public or pri
vate property , except the person so ap
pointed shall be a resident of the state. "
Dut , notwithstanding , I am credibly In
formed this old board to which you refer has
displaced many of the better police ofllcerji of
the city of Omaha , and put In their stead men
Imported Into the state only a few days be
fore , and yet there has been no such occur
rences as you eeem to think may occur.
I note what you say relative to a "quo
warranto" proceeding. Please , governor , In
form us how this can bo done , until there
are aj least two parties claiming the same
office ; untlj a new commission be appointed
who can contest the right of the old board.
I note what you say about the constitu
tionality of the act. I read at the tlmo , quite
carefully your veto message of the bill , and
have just re-read It , and am unable to find
the slightest Intimation therein as to Its tin-
constltutlnnallty.
If , at the time , you thought 'It was un-
consUtutlonal , please tell us why you did
not then point It out to the legislature. If
It be for the reason that It takes from the
executive1 the appointing power , please refer
us to the section with which It Is In con
flict. If It be In relation to some other sub
ject than that of the appointing power , please
Inform us In what respect 11 be deemed un
constitutional.
Again , If deemed unconstitutional , why did
you not suggest the advislblllty of the
supreme court decision at an earlier date ?
It Is more than ninety days since it re
ceived the three-fifths vote of both houses.
Why wait until after the final adjournment
of the court ? Was It In order to at this time
question Its validity for an excuse for the
old board to refuse to submit to the express
will of the people through Its legislature ?
I have always supposed It the duty of all
executive officers to enforce the laws as made
by the legislative branch of the government ,
and all such laws are presumed valid until
pronounced otherwise by the courts.
You aUo say : "Men In ths city of Omaha
are organizing and holding frequent meetings
with the avowed expectation of becoming a
part of the police force under the provisions
of the new law , "
I am unable to comprehend how this can
be possible , as under the new law the com
mission Is clothed with 'the power ot appoint
ing the police officers , and It seems to mo an
tniano man would hardly entertain the
"avowed expectation" of becoming a part of
tlio police force when even the appointing
power was not only not known , but In fact
did not even have nn existence. I cannot bo-
lleve there ara "a large number < > { men" so
visionary. It occurs to me that you have
been misled by some excited visionary mind
and have not consulted the sober , thinking
business men'of Omaha.
HAS NOTHING TO AGREE ON.
You say : "Or that nn agreed case shall
bo submitted to such court under the pro
visions of section G67 ot the Code of Civil
Procedure. " That section provided :
"Parties to a question which might be the
subject of a civil action , may , without action ,
agree upon a case containing the facts upon
which the controversy depends , and present
a submission of the same to nuy court which
would have jurisdiction If an action had been
brought , Dut It must appear by aflldavlt that
the controversy Is real , and the proceedings
In good faith , and determine the rights of the
parties. The court shall thereupon hear and
determine ! the case and render judgment as
If an action were pending. "
Plcaso Inform us what question exists
which might be the subject of n civil action
I am not aware of any such question. If you
can commence a civil action against the lane
commissioner and the attorney general to
determine the constitutionality of the act re
ferred to , then perhaps nn agreed case might
bo maintained. Hut could the validity be
tested In such an action ? Upon what theory
could It b ? contended there was n question
which would be the subject of a civil action
between yourself and the two other members
of the board ? You may refuse to take part
but still there would be a sufficient number
to constitute a quorum who could act. Dut
further , "It must appear by affidavit that
the controversy Is real , and the proceedings
In good faith , and determine the rights of the
parties. "
May I not ark , governor , what right be
tween yourself and the other two members
of the board Is Involved In this controversy ?
If n now flro and police commission was
appointed and they claimed the right to the
offices as such flre and police commissioners ,
which right was denied by the present In
cumbents , and as a basis to such right they
contended the act referreit to bo In conflict
with some constitutional provision , then I
can see how these two boards might make
up nn agreed case which would settle the
rights of the parties , and In determining
this , would pass upon the validity of the act
you refer to ,
1 am free to confess , 1 not 6nly have no
objection to the supreme court passing upon
the validity ot this law , but ot any law.
You CMI nlways depend on this department
to do Its utmost for the enforcement ot ill
laws , mid for law nnd order in any part of
the state , I ate feel that I know the tem
per and sentiment ot the people ot Omaha
well enough to assure you that there exists
no necessity for nny apprehension of acts
of violence. I do not , therefore , see any dan
ger to any Interest ot the people of Omaha ,
nor do I see any occasion for asking the supreme
premo court to do so unusual n thing as to
convene In extra session to determine the
question suggested. If this Is done , you must
n&iumo the responsibility therefor. I re
main very truly yours ,
A. s. CHURCHILL ,
Attorney General ,
MIL RUSSELL FOLLOWS ON.
I < nnd Commissioner Rui&ell supplements
the eplbtle of the attorney general with the
following upon the same subject :
LINCOLN. Neb. , July 20. Hon. Silas A.
Holcomli , Governor : Dear Sir Your com
munication with reference to the Fire and
Police commission at Omaha was received.
I have read It carefully and to say that I
was astounded at Its content * would he mild
Indeed. I cannot think , governor , that you
gave the matter that dun consideration you
are generally credited with giving question *
ot grave Importance. I trtmt you have not
( Ql gotten that this Is a republic where tha
people govern. That It U the duty of every
good citizen to obey the law. You remem
ber King Charles lout Mi head by reason
of his defiance of the ptoplo'a parliament.
Our state government U divided Into three
brnnchct the legislative , the judicial and the
executive. The legislative eitict * the l&wi ,
the judicial Interprets nnd declares the law ,
the executive enforced the law.
You n k mo to join with you In the neg
lect ot n duty Imposed upon me by the leg
islature ; you ask ma to join with you In an
attempt to Ignore , annul and dlvobey a law ;
you A k mo to vlolata my oath brcamm loinn
on * li not pleased with the law , htcaute
lome onu hit k ld he did not Intend to obtjr
the law and would renlst It * enforcement.
Wo liavn nothing to do with man'i likes
and dislikes of a law. We did not Mr af to
obey the law provided every person was
pleated to have tin do o. There are but few ,
men In the penitentiary who are pleased with
the law that sent thorn there. I cannot join
with you , governor , In your request to annul
the law , It would tie the act of a coward If
I did. I never shrank from a duty , no mat-
tcr how disagreeable or dangerous It might
FLINGS IT HACK AT OMAHA.
Let us look for n moment at the history of
this law. The people of Omaha are Intelli
gent they are presumed to know what
they wanted. They elected twelve good men
to the legislature. Those twelve men voted
tor this law. It received more , than u three-
fifths vote In each house. You vetoed It ,
which you had a constitutional right to do.
You gave your reasons , no one of which wns
that It was unconstitutional. You returned
It. It was carefully considered and passed
over your veto by moro than the requisite
three-fifths vote.
It was a matter purely local to the people
of Omaha. They asked for It.
Pardon me , governor , for my presumption ,
but 1 think It comes with very bad grace for
you to Impugn the motives of more than
throe-fifths of the members of the legislature.
They were honorable men ; no one of them
could be swerved from his duty , either by
threals or bribery.
You say "Iho prevailing opinion" was thai
Ihe law was not needed. My recollection U
that the opposite opinion prevailed. You
say : "The presenl Hoard of Fire and Police
Commissioners declares Its intention of ex
ercising the funatlons of their office under
the existing law until Hie valldlly of the
provisions of Ihe law In quesllon nre deter
mined. " Whoever said lhat said that they
proposed lo defy Ihe laws of Ihe slale of
Nebraska.
Your duly Is plain. I hope you will have
the courage and patriotism to do II.
Where are such threats to end ? If one
set of men has a right to say "We will obsy
no law enacled by the legislature until the
court has passed upon Its validity , " then all
men have that right. No one knows bette *
than you thai lhal is not the law. It Is your
duty , ns well as Ihe most humble citizen , to
obey the law until Ihe court has declared It
Invalid. Any other course leads to anarchy.
The law under which the present Hoard of
Fire nnd Police are acting expires on the 1st
day of August by act of the legislature. Who 1 *
to eay It does not ? The man who Is not
pleased with It ? No. The man who did not
agree with the legislature polillcilly ? No.
WILLING TO SHED BLOOD.
You ask me lo join wllh you In your plan
of settlement , and you say the whole matter
will be peaceably settled with dignity and
decorum. No , governor , that would not do.
No cringing coward was ever credited with
much dignity. Much as I deplore riot and
bloodshed , I would not avoid it ut Die expense
of Uw.
Governor , Ihls whole matter Is In your
hands. If men nre killed their blood will
be upon you. All you have to say lo those
who would defy the law Is thai while you arj
governor of the stale of Nebraska you pro
pose lo enforce Ihe laws as you find them
upon Ihe slatute book , until they have been
repealed by the legislature or annulled by
the court. Tell them they have nothing
to fear by obedience lo ( he law.
I will lake no step with you In defiance of
Inw , but I assure you I will join heartily
with you in bringing about an ejrly decision
as to the validity of this law as soon as pos
sible after It goes Into effect. In closing , let
me bsg of you In the name of law-abiding
citizens of the stale of which we are all so
proud , take no step thai will discredit you , or
discredit Ihe slale , or blacken "ihe reputation
for peace and good order of the metropolis of
Nebraska.
Let the man who would encourage anarchy-
know at once that there Is no place In Ne
braska for him. Let them know lhat you
are not here to defy the law. Now , governor.
If I have said anything seemingly harsh , I
beg your pardon , for I feel mosl deeply ths
gravity of the situation. Again assuring you
of my support In the maintenance of law and
order , I am yours most respectfully ,
H. C. HUSSELL.

NEW LONDON. Conn. , July 30. Vigilant
beat Defender today In a run ot sixty-four
miles from Eaton Point on the Long Island
shore , five miles from Hmitlngton harbor , to
Ihls port. The cup defender gave up the
race not far from this place because her steer
ing gear became deranged. A strong routhwest
by south breeze , varying In strength from
eighteen to twenty-two knots , blow throughcut
the greater part of Ihe race , which was y
broad reach on the starboard tack from start
to finish , and with hardly the shift of a salt.
When Defender dropped out It was estimated
she was fully five minutes ahead of Vigilant ,
and the new yacht was looked upon as a sure
winner , barring accidents , but the unexpected
accident occurred and Defender received her
first defeat.
A betler day for racing Ihan today could
hardly bo Imagined , The wind was strong
and true , and Increased In strenglli until this
port was reached , when a stiff twenty-two-
knot breeze was blowing , and just as the lal
yacht made New London a severe rain and
wind squall , lasting about an hour , sprung
up and set the people at Bridgeport and
New Haven wondering whether the smaller
yachts were caught out In it. Happily such
was not the case , and birring the damage to
Defender's steering gear , the splitting of one
of her club topsails and a jib , and the loss
of a boat from the schooner yacht Montauk ,
there were no accidents to rccrd.
Vigilant had a little the butter of the
start and kept well ahead for some time.
Finally , however , she got Into a luffing match
with Defender , the latler pressing her closely ,
and Defender walked up ahead and to wind
ward , pulling gradually away. It Is estimated
thai Defender was about flvo minutes ahead
when , nearlng Nowlon , she suddenly lulled
up , lowered her topsails , signalled for a lug
and was lowed lo shore In Ihe harbor. The
general opinion was expressed that Defender
would have undoubtedly won the race had
she been able to finish. Vigilant sailed
grandly across the line and up the harbor ,
winner , In four hours and forty minutes and
thlrty-beven seconds , elapsed , over the sixty-
four mile course.
Constellation of Boston , In the schooner
class , made a remarkable run , covering the
course In 4:30:04 : : , a really remarkable per
formance. She was the first yacht , to reach
this harbor , and her time compared fairly
with the Vlgllant's 4:10:37. : : The race today
was started with the first of the ebb tide ,
which helped the yachts greatly.
Afte.- the races Iho Associated press lug
Alerl went alongside both Vigilant and De
fender and asked Captain Harr and Captain
HafI for their view of the race. The former
would only say that the race spoke for Itself
and the lallcr simply admitted thai Defender
had split a few sails. A veteran yachtsman
who saw the race from the scnooner Iroquoli ,
which also made a remarkable run , said the
stlftest of the breeze was about 11 a. m. ,
when he ostlmaled It was blowing fully
twenty-Uvo knots , and Defender , during the
worst of It , slowly crept away from Vigilant.
He added , however , thai he hoped Vigilant
ha3 been greatly Improved , otherwise he
was of ( ho opinion the cup was in danger.
Another expert yachtsman sa'.d Defender was
Undoubtedly the better boat , and that she
would beat Vigilant In any weather by a
good margin , but , he added , she will be much
faster when she meets Valkyrie III.
This evening Defender's damaged steering
gear was taken ashore to the Morgan Iron
works , where sjveral men were put to work
on It. U Is expectcl Defender will be able
to start with the rest of the Host tomorrow.

BOSTON , July 30. A most mysterious af - . *
fair connected with the recent Chrlstl.iii En
deavor convention hero has Just come lo llRht.
Mrs. E. T. Gardiner of Arcadia , Neb. , who
came hero as a delegate lo Iho convention ,
has not yet returned to her home -mid hus
band and children and the report of her death
hero Is not supported by the records or by any
known facts.
Mrs. Gardiner Is 35 years old. She had al
ways been apparently hcAllhy and when her
husband received from her a letter dated
July 15 , stating that she was about to die , ho
was astonished. Following that letter cjmo
another signed by "Mr. G. J. Drown of South
nojton , " whom neither Mr. Gardiner nor anyone
ono else knows , stating that the woman wai
dead and lhat In the Interest of cr.inomy her
body would bo burled here. .Tho death regls-
tors bear no record of any such dealh and de
tectives employed by Mr. Onrdlner have failed
to find a trace of Mrs. Gardiner , dead or alive.
It Is feared by seine of those Interested in
( he case that Mrs. Gardiner has been splrl'cd '
away by thieves who were attracted by the
large sum of money and valuable Jewelry she
carried , while some believe she ( lied and that
her body was secured for dissection purposes.
When Mrs. Gardiner was In Hoston she did
not stay with the rest of the Nebraska dele
gation nt the regular hoidn.uarters , but with
some friends who cannot now bo found.
ARCADIA , Nob. , July 30. ( Special Tele
gram. ) Mrs E. T. Gardner , delegate to the
Christian Endeavor convention at Boston ,
mysteriously disappeared In that city. J.
W. Landers , a prominent citizen of this town ,
has gone to Boston to Investigate. A tele
gram received from Mr. Landers states that
M. J. Itrown , the party Mrs. Gardner was
supposed to bo staying with , Is a fako. He
will report facts as soon as obtainable.
