LINCOLN. Aug: a Speclal-Investlga.
tlon of the charges made by a democratic
newspaper, and later published In some of
tha republican papers, that - barrels of
money are at the command of one of the
candidates for supreme Judge, proves the
story to be absolutely false. Tha cam
paigns being made In the Interest of Judge
dedg-erlck and of Judge Reese are similar
In every respect and: naturally the expense
of one ta about the expense of the other.
Each has a headquarters Judge Sedgwick
at the Lindell hotel In charge of H. C.
Lindsay, and Judge Reese In the Funke
building In charge of a committee and
supervised by W. B. Rose, deputy attorney
general, and Clark. Perkins, secretary to
the State Railway' commission. None of
these, of course, draw any pay. Earn em
ploys stenographer to write letters to the
voters and to mall out other literature.
Judge Reese's boosters have gotten out
special, editions pf t$e Grand Island Inde
pendent,. Aurora Republican, Albion News,
and this week they sre sending out 20,000
copies of a four-page paper containing
Reeae eulogies. Judge Sedgwick boosters
have gotten out special editions of the Be
atrice Express, . Columbus Tribune and
Crete Vldette-Herald. In addition each
aide is sending out personal appeals to the
voters. In some counties Judge Sedgwick
' has no paper supporting him and therefore
the only way his candidacy can be brought
to tha attention of the voters Is through
letter and circulars, while In other coun
ties tha Reese boosters are reaching the
voters In the same way.
Tha conclusion la ,hnt If one candidate
has a barrel then the other one has, as
both, are at, about the same expense,
thousrh one of the Reese papers published
the statement originating with the demo
cratic sheet that, the present Incumbent
had th barret As a matter of fact, the
expense of the Sedgwick campaign Is be
!ng . paid , by .Jtidge Jk Igwlck and H. O.
Lindsay, with, help from the force In the
cbrfc's office. .The' expense of the Reese
camiwljn Is being paid by voluntary con
tributions ' from the Tleese supporters.
Attorneys and others from over the state
have asked to contribute to the Sedgwick
campaign fund, hut In every Instance their
ofTers have been turned down. Not a dol
lar, so Mr. Lindsay said, had been charged
by the newspapers for space, though ex
tra coplea of papers bought have been
paid for., Neither Mr. Lindsay nor Mr.
Rosa has been able; to figure out how to
reach the people ' In any ether wy than
through letters and' through the newspapers.-
And this, of course, costs some
money, but neither f side has a barrel to
spend or 'to spend 'other than la a legiti
mate way,
Sheldon Writes ta Corosw,
In answer to a Jetter from Coroner Wells
Of Cuming county, which stated that tha
county officials Wars doing all they could
to apprehend members of the Hlgglna mob.
Governor Sheldon wrote as follows:
Permit me to thank you for your com
munication .of August. 2, enclosing oopy
of the findings of h coroner's Jury upon
the inquest of the body of Hlgglna.
It Is a source of great regrei to me that
rltlxens in any. part of the state should not
have a higher respect for law and order.
No matter what the provocation may have
been, the action of the mob cannot be Jus
tified. The commission of one crime does
not justify the commission of another. The
law of the land should prevail. Violators
of the law should be quickly tried and
speedily punished. Mercy should be ex
tended only in the interest of justice and
the welfare of society.
I am glad to know that "the officers of
the county sre dolnc all they possibly can
to bring the guilty parties to justice."
Shelden'a First rommitatloa.
Oofornor Sheldon this afternoon Issued
his first commutation to a prisoner In the
state penitentiary. The prisoner who re
ceived executive clemency is James Galla
gher of Douglas -county, serving a three
years' sentence for larceny, whose release
was recommended by former County At
torney Slabaugh and Attorney General
Thompson. The latter gave the following
reasons for his recommendations. "First',
the caee appeals strongly for the inter
position of executive clemency; second,
under the evldenoe obtainable Gallagher
was not guilty of tha offense of larceny;
thjrd, under the faoU disclosed since tha
plea, of guilty by Gallagher, the aentence
Is excessive; fourth, you will be warranted
In either commuting the sentence or grant
In an Unconditional pardon."
Gallagher, who Is about 18 years old, was
arrested with Charlea Atrlm, charged with
stealing and trying to sell some tobacco
taken from an Illinois car.
. , . Brief la.Bxpreaa Case.
Attorney General, Thompson Is preparing
his answer to fee filed in the federal court
sU Omaha to the. petition of the express
companies for an Injunction to prevent
the railway commission from enforcing
tho Sibley K per cent reduction law. The
answer has to be filed by September 1. and
It will be ready by that time, if not before.
It ' Is understood since the express com
panies filed their petition the attorney. gen
eral has dug up some evidence to be used
In this case which will be surprising and
his answer will by means comfort tha
corporations. -
