9tL THE ( XMAITA DAILY KiSKi. ffllTJKSPAY. DECEMBER 23 , 1807.
Was therefore feeling Jubilant over the out
come of the ca c.
"The "point " In which It will meat directly
Interest and concern the people of Nebraska , "
lie said , ' 'Is In connection ivlth the case
against the 'Hartley ' bondsmen , which Is now
pending In , the district court of thl district.
1 make this statement , however , on condition
that my contention in the Scott case 1s
wholly upheld 1iy the court , AS I understand
from the tirlesTam. If this Is the case , -thon
Cio defense advanced by the 'Hartley ' bonds
men , by which they secured a decision from
Judge Powell , Is entirely swept away.
"Thp llarrott Scott case was a case in
wlilch originally only Holt county and not the
state was Interested. The state was not In
terested until after It had reached the su-
jircmo court. It was carried up by the county
which again the state
on a flesal point , In
-was not concerned. Hut when the case was
on the docket of the supreme court the very
name defense that was made In the Hartley
case was advanced by the .bondsmen. This
was that the bond bad not been approved
within the tlmo fixed by law ami that there
fore the bondsmen wore not liable for any
shortaRo that might have occurred In Scott s
accounts. The fact was that the 'bond ' was
approved * omo tlmo after the tlmo In which
the law said It must be approved toy "the " ap
proving ; officer. The attorneys In the case
advanced this contention In n brief to the supreme
premo court. It was exactly the same do-
foneo made by the bondsmen In 4ho 'Hartley '
case and moreover'was ' put forward by one of
the attorneys and one of the defendants in
the Hartley case. John II. Ames.
"When this brief was filed the Judges of
the supreme court requested me to fllo an
answer , Inasmuch as It Involved a statute of
the state. In this answer I made exactly the
name contention as I did In the Hartley case ,
with the exception that It was evolved with
more care. It was that the approving of the
bond was no portion of that Instrument what
ever. The bond Itself was Iho contract for
the safeguarding of the funds In charge of
the oincer and was not affected by the fact
that It was or was not approved by a certain
tlmo by the approving olllccr , who was , In
the Hartley case , the governor.
"What effect will It liavo on the Hartley
case ? I can answer only on condition again
'that I understand rightly the decision of the
supreme court. I can not say positively until
I liavo reul the opinion. Hut If that , my only
Contention In the Scott case , was uphold ,
then It will destroy the defense of the bonds
men. The failure of the governor to approve
In the time fixed by law was the only defense
they made. In the face of the decision I un
derstand has been handed down that defense
falls to the ground. Therefore , I believe that
In the Hartley case all that needs to bo dc-
termlroil la the amount of the shortage and
nothing more. Judgment for that amount
will l-o rendered and the case will be cnde.l.
"Tl'o decision also sots a very Important
precadent In the state. It shows that the
supreme court holds that the bond llsclf Is
the contract entered Into and the sole con
tract without any technical provision thit the
approving Is a part of the Instrument. I be
lieve also that the decision will stand , to.
the supreme court woi'ld not render such nn
Important decision unless It had carefully
reviewed the authorities on both sides.
"As far as I can say now. the decision will
rot effect any other suit against bondsmen
that Is now pending. The same Issue was
raised In none of them , KO far as I recollect.
It will not revive the Hill caso. for the con
tention there was entirely different. "

LINCOLN , Dee. 22. ( Special Telegram. )
The hearing In the Hartley casa was had be-
fora the supreme court this morning , all the
Judges and court .commissioners bolng pres
ent. Soy-oral of the state officials , members
of the bar and other prominent people were
In the court room throughout tli < ( argument.
The attorneys on each sldo of the case were
allowed an hour and a half to present their
arguments and Iho hearing was completed
at 12 o'clock.
The argument was opened by Mr. Mahoncy ,
who first discussed the validity of the war
rant drawn In favor of Hartley. Ho held
that the transfer of the fund was authorized
4 > y law and 'that the warrant -was perfectly
legal and that nt the time this case was
commenced last spring If such a warrant
had bcsn shown to the attorney general , or
to the county attorney of Douglas county ,
or to the district judge , each of thorn would
have declared it to bo valid , and yet Dart-
ley had heen prosecuted by two of these
gentlemen and sentenced by the third upon
the theory that the warrant was not legally
drawn. If Hartley had embezzled the war
rant Its validity would never have been ques
tioned , and the holder of It would have the
right to recover fiom the state. Sir. Mahoney -
honey then took up at considerable length
the discussion of the question as to whether
a credit In a bank could bo called money.
He contended that In bringing the * case on a
complaint which charged the embezzlement
of money , the state could not convict for
the embezzlement of credit , which was a
different thing from money. Ho quoted the
statutes nnd many authorities on the sub
ject In an effort to show that the term
"money" did not apply to a credit In a bank.
Ho said : "Money cannot be called a security.
It Is payment. To many It Is the ultimate
thins. " The only thing that could bo called
money Is a check or bond or something In-
j tended to circulate as money.
"Jiulqo Norval asked : "If Hartley had
got money on the check that was given to
the bank , would the Indictment have been
sufficient ? "
Mr. Mahoncy said he thought It would.
"Or If Millard had got the money ? " said )
Judge Norval.
"Well , possibly so , " said Mahoney. "I am
not so sure about that. "
Mr. Miihoncy concluded iby arguing that
the transfer of credits was not the payment
of money.
Attorney General Smyth opened his ar
gument by the statement that If Hartley was
not KUllty of the embezzlement of money , he
was guilty of nothing. Ho devoted ht ! time
to the answer cf the arguments made by Mr.
Mahoney , following closely the briefs already
filed In the case. Hd. P. Smith and C. O
Whedon also took up the 'irgumccit along the
line of the briefs.
The supreme court today affirmed the de
cision of the district -court of Douglas county
In the case In which Edward Johnson was
found guilty of burglary and sentenced to
six ycais In the penitentiary.
COMPLAINTS AGAINST RAILUOADS.
A case was filed before the State Hoard of
Transportation , this afternoon by Johh H.
Ilaper , attorney for Pawnee county , against
the Kansas City & Beatrice Tlallroadi com
pany. It' seeiiM that when the road was
built , several years ago , It followed cne ol
the public toads for nearly a mile , and has
done nothing to keep this wagon , read In
.repair. The complaint Is calculated to com
pel the company to cither put the highway
In good shape In Its prcaent locality , or pur
chase a right of way for -the travel through
the adjoining farms.
Another complaint filed was that of the
citizens of Sljubcrt , a station on theB. . & M
In Richardson county. They pay that they
have only one train a day , each way , and that
these are sot -at such Inconvenient tlmro
that no co&neetlon1 can be made with other
trains on other branches of the tame road.
The attorney general today filed a demurrer
to the petition rccontlr filed by the Socletj
of the Home for the Frlendl-ess In the case
brought 'by the society to compel the auditor
and other state officers to pay the money ap
propriated by the state for the support of the
home. The demurrer holds that the petition
and application does not state facts sulHcien
to constitute a canto of action and also tha
the court has no Jurisdiction over the sub
ject in the action.

"WASHINGTON , Dec. 22. Secretary Gage
laa written the following letter to President
OoinpeTH of the Federation of Labor :
I liavo read with oaro the resolutions
adopted the 20th lust , by thn committee
of the Federation of Labor , as follows :
"Renolved , Tlmt wo declare ourselves op-
loncd to Uiu Qafo Ilnanolal bill recently
introduced In congress by t'no ' secretary of
the treasury. It Is a measure that If
adopted as a law will only the more llrmly
rivet the ic.old standard on the pcoplo of
the country , mid perpetuate Its disastrous
effects In every form ,
"HoF.olved , That we pronounce the Ongc
illl an undisguised effort to retire our green
back currency nnd all irovcrnmetu papar
noncy with a view to the substitution of
uitlonal banknotes In their stead , nnd thus
Cast Vho national bank system for years
upon the American people. "
Now , If It bo true that the gold standard
by which things have been measured as
to price for the last sixty years In this
country Is Inimical to the Interests of the
aborlnt ? classes of the United States , then
I think It Is Inimical to all classes. In
other 'words , I do not believe tiat the ex
ploitation of one class by another either
ihroiiijl ! false weights , partial laws or a
bad monetary cystem can bo made to
work , for the permanent benefit of the
exploiting class Itself , or for the general
weal , even were It defensible on any ground
of right or justice , which It Is not.
Granted , therefore , that the permanence
of the gold standard ( for which I argue )
operates In this evil direction , then your
resolutions of condemnation are i.vell
founded , and I am justly charged either
with nn Ignorance iwhlch constitutes mo a
foolish adviser , or with a perversity of
motive , -which makes mo an evil adviser.
I have a right to disavow the charge of
perversity or evil purpose , since there Is
nothing in my whole HCs , us related to any
fellow men , cither In word or deed , from
which the 'possession by me of such char-
aetorlstles can be inferred , much less
demonstrated.
Hut Ignorance often unconsciously raorlcs
is deep Injury as evil Intent , and In this
case , If Ignorance bo a sin , I must confess
mj'self to b ? a possible victim. This con
fession ought not , inowcver , to classify me
as separate from my fellow men gener
ally , whether they be considered as In
dividual units , or as congregated In groups.
Ignorance Is a relative , not absolute term ,
since few are totally Ignorant , and none
absolutely wise. Nor does tha committee
constituting the group change this fact ,
since the wlEdom of a. group , however
large , cannot bo greater tban that of the
wl.icst nm'n In It. This remains true ,
whether the subject matter Involving knowl
edge and judgment bo astronomy , physics ,
or finance. The condemnation then Involved
In thn resolution * referred' to measured
by tha just or Imperfect apprehension of
iiuestlons relating to monetary science hold
by the wlt-est men who supported them.
Laying these general considerations aside ,
let mo say to you. and through you to the
gtcat body you so honombly represent , that
if. Instead of denunciatory resolutions ,
which are not argument , you , or any on
your behalf , will show that the view ? I
entertain and advocate are other than salu
tary to the great body j-conomlc , of which
we are all independent nwmbers , I will
abandon them without hesitation.
My present eonvlctlon. the honest fruit
of sincere ftudy and reflection. Is that a
bioakdown In our present money standard
would be a most disastrous b'.ow to all our
Industrial Interests ; and upon the wage
workers ns a clasrs would be entailed the
most serious effects of the disaster. Be
lieving this I must so bear witness.

JACKSONVILLE , Kla. . Dec. 22. A apodal
to the Times-Union and Citizen from Key
West says : Schooners iMvltig port last lRlt
that were unaccustomed to the summary
methods adopted by Undo Sam In Intercept
ing filibusters , were treated to n surprise.
The battleship Maine's launch fired a shot
as a command for them to halt , Not under
standing the signal they proceeded on their
course , but another shot brought them to.
They were boarded by the naval olllcers and
thoroughly searched , but no nrms tier am
munition "froro found , and they TVCTO allowed
to proceed. The Maine's officers are un
usually nlert , and there must bo strong
ground for Busplckxt that n filibustering ex
pedition Is being planned , for the big battle-
shit ) coasted along the Islands several times
during the might , putting all craft under the
Inquisitive glare oflts big searchlights.
South Omaha News.
At the present tlmo forty-three arc lights
are paid for 'by the city nnd used for the
purposes of etreet lighting. These lights
cost the city about $550 a month , or $ GGOO
ft year. Another light , making forty-four ,
has just been ordoredi located , and this will
Increase the monthly cost t2 , or | H4 a
year. These lights arc divided among the
wards as follows : First ward , sixteen ; Scc-
oud ward , six ; Third ward , three ; Fourth
i ward. four. Nine lights ore located on Q
street , which Is the dividing line between
the Second , Third and Fourth wards , and
five are on N street , which Is the dividing
line between the First and. . Second wards.
Even with the number now In service the
city Is Insufficiently lighted , it having been
stated that ten more lights could bo used to
advantage In , different parts of the city.
In case the ordinance recently Introduced.
In the council is passed .and enforced , com
pelling the railroads to maintain arc lights
at a number of crossings , the drain upon the
city will bo slightly relieved , nnd six lights
could then be distributed about the streets
without the expenditure of any more- money
than la now being spent for'lighting. H Is
feared that the railroads will contest the
ordinance and tlo the I matter up In the
courts for1 a number1 of years , and of course
it this Is1done the expected relict cannot be
obtained In the manner now under consider
ation. As the growth of the- city Increase * ,
the demand for lights Increases , and prop
erty owners 'all over arc clamoring for
moro light. Next year It wll bo necessary
to mnko an Increased appropriation for
street lighting , at least that Is the plan
now.
lloitio llnnch Saloon MVCIINO.
About six weeks ago The Bee called at
tention to the fact that no liquor license had
boon Issued to the Homo Ranch saloon on
N street-and lasU'Monday ' night Councilman
Mort mentioned the matter at the meeting
of the city council. Upon the recommenda
tion of Mort the chief of police was In
structed to see that the necesssary license
was arranged for at once. Investigation
shows that the proprietor oC this saloon has
made a partial payment , on the license , but
no license was ever Issued. It had been
arranged , so It Is claimed , that as the sa
loon did not open for business until some
tlmo during the summer that the license
fee wad to bo paid pro rata , that Is for only
such portion of the license year as the sa
loon had been In opwatlou. Just who has
t.ho authority to make such an arrangement
Is not known. There lu no provision In the
law to warrant such action. The city coun
cil has the right , If It sees fit , to pro rata
the occupation tax , but the money for the
licence goes to the school fund and cannot
under the law bo tampered with. It is un
derstood that the matttr Is to come up for
further consideration. The saloon In ques
tion paid $300of the | 500 license tax.
Content Over Street Intension.
There Is likely to bo a contest lu the city
council over the ordinance Introduced at the
last meeting relative to appropriating certain
private property for the extension of Seven
teenth street from the south lineof 1 street
to Missouri avenue. Last August a petition
signed by a few members of the Eastslde
Improvement club was presented to the coun
cil , urging some action In this matter. It Is
desired to open a stieet sixty feet wlflo ant
220 feet long through what Is known as the
Cassldy tract. The cost of this property to
bo condemned , for street purposes is to be
pild by the -property benefited. Some of the
members , of the council have been looking up
the matter and have como to the conclusion
that there Is no necessity for such nctloi
just at this time , nnd it la moro than llkely-
that a petition containing the names of a
majority of the property owners who will bo
called upon to pay the damages will bo demanded
manded before final action Is taken.

There is no
prettier sight in
the world than
that of a healthy ,
happy mother at
play with her r6-
bust and rollicking -
ingbaby. . It is a
sight entirely too
infrequent. Too
often the baby is
, , . puny and peevish
and the mother sickly , fretful , and nervous.
The woman who neglects to take proper care
of herself and who therefore suffers from
weakness and disease of the organs of wo
manhood cannot be healthy and amiable.
Her children will be puny and ailing and
happiness will pass by on the other side.
There is no reason why every woman should
not be the healthy , happy mother of robust
and playful children if she will take the
proper care of herself. Proper care means ,
first of all , proper medicine for her ailments.
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will
make any woman strong nnd well in a wo
manly way. It cures all weakness and dis
ease of the distinctly feminine organism. It
prepares a woman for motherhood. It in
sures the health of the baby. It makes
parturition easy and nearly painless. Over
90,000 women have testified to its virtues ,
in writing. Druggists sell it and have no
substitute "just ns Rood , " The druggist
who tries to force tioiiictliiiig- else upon you
is not an honcbt man. He is trifling with
your life and happiness for the sake of a
greater profit to himself.
