nimacy of BtSle Treasurer Hall, In refustflg to

for which no Srof latloi wa

(tiat the fterdes law U good one, but flode no
good In the treasurer because be obeys It. But
t'ne g(rrnor errwoterrharges that the state
Irenstifef has ftyt been so scrupulous In obsTt
Iftg other law, and cites tnslaaeee of specific
vreng-dniftg. Moreover, he announces his in
tention to present the treasurer t th eowrte,

t'vty, not to enforce restitution of public money
(Megsllr diverted, but, If possible, to compel
him fo disregard th plain letter of the law th

The cofietllufloft of Nebraska makes it the
flfsl duty of the governor to see that tin law
are upheld and enforced. Ife Is Hot clothed
with any royal prerogative' of suspension or dis
pensation. The governor admits cognisance of
alleged hiatfeaaaflre by the atate IrfaHOrer. If
be has known of this for so many months, why
has he waited all this time to bring it to pttbtln
notice, and why does he now dleelose It only to
support a threat? And, tight here It might be
well to direct the attention of the governor fo
a provision of law he see ma to hat overlooked.
He says he would have been willing to approve
n bond for tbe treaeurer In tbe sum of IOO,090
although the law of Nebraska, section 6725 Af
Hie Revised Code says the bond shall not h
loos than $600,640, and not less thee double
l he sum that may come Into the treasurer's
hands, as fixed by tbe governor. Did hot the
governor, as charged by the treasurer, thus ad
tla hint to do an Illegal act, in calling for a
t; jfld for- only f 500,000, when the law makes
1600,000 the minimum?

Farewell, summer, mid nfl Weak.

And thy spirit Umpeet-toet!

With thy January glow;
Whence waa born thine antic Scheme
Only wlxnrtrv miy dream;
Wherefore thv December touch,
Wherefore thy November clutch,
Wh'rfore all thy flood snd halt
No mere mortal may unveil.
