THE COURIER.
statement that one of the considerations
of the passage of the new law was the
pull it would give certain republican
state officials in Douglas count, and
that it has been the purpose all along
to use this pull in the interest of Tom
Majors and Tom Majors friends. It is
intimated that, if desired, a Majors
delegation to the state convention last
year could easily bo secured in Douglas
county as matters now stand. Mr. Ma.
jors is constantly in the city, and there
is no longer any question but that bo
will shake on the Hhroud and endeavor
to prove that he was not dead but sleep
ing. Now every consideration of right and
justice and decency renders solemn and
serious judgment that Tom Majors is
finally and irretrievably dead, so far as
political preferment is concerned. And
as The Courier has already said in a
previous article, there should be some
sanitary regulation to keep the dead in
their graves. Has not the republican
party suffered enough with the dead
weights of the Majorsesand Howes? Has
not Nebraska had enough of these
political burdens? After the people
of the state have ofticialy declared this
tiresome and troublesome man dead is
it not too much that he should take the
nails out of his coffin and come back to
us and seek to reverse the judgment
passed upon him? There is a crying
demand for some new and live men in
Nebraska republican politics. The party
has been carryiug corpses too long.
My good friend Jerusalem Gusta
tavuB Perseverance Hilderband is
trying hard to make his paper interes
ting. That is well. But he should not
allow his zeal to run away with his
judgment. Jerusalem Gustavus Per
severance in last week's Herald shows
some signs of eccentricity that should
be curbed if he desires to stand well with
his fellow citizens. Jerusalem Gusta
vus Perseverenco says: "The repub
lican county central committee every
where is receiving the just censure
and condemnation it deserves. Leading
republicans condemn it as being an
aggregation of useless and vacillating
body of men whose sole purpose it is to
assess candidates, drink good whisky
and smoke poor cigars." Speaking of
whisky, 1 wondr if Jerusalem Gusta
vus Pereeverence wasn't a wee bit
under the influence when he wrote that
paragraph. It is very much mixed, an
certainly does not add to the reputation
for sobriety which my good friend enjoys.
Jerusalem Gustavus Pereeverence has
a peculiar sense of humor, and it may be
that he thought the paragraph was fa-
cetious.If bo, please do not be facetious
again, oh, Jerusalem Gustavus Per-
severance. You appear ridiculous
rather than funny. And your friends
do not like to see you made light off.
May be, oh Jerusalem, you will say it
was all the fault of the office cat.
The presidential boom, which of late

J. Sterling Morton, once more calls So

form his opinion from the expressions
in eastern newspapers one would think
the democrats of Nebraska would be
glad to honor such a man as the sacre-
tary of agriculture. But the democrats
of Nebraska are peculiar. There is
more jealousy, envy, covetousness, to
the square inch in the democratic party
in this state than can bo found any
where else on earth. Wherever one
democrat rises above the dead level of
mediocrity there are a dozen members
of the proletariat to hit him a crack on
the head. A good many democrats dis
like Mr. Morton, first because of his
prominence. 'I hen they say be ia
arrogant and aristocratic Of late he
has become too big a man to suit the
periwinkles of the party. It is not sur
prising to learn that the mention of Mr.
Morton as a candidate for president has
stirred up the animals in this state.
Dr. George L. Miller, who would like to
be regarded as the Nestor of the party,
is said to bo displeased at the Morton
bcom, and the great mastiff, James
Ebenezer Boyd, ex-governor, is getting
ready to bark. These two are credited
'ith the intention of setting up the
pins against Mr. Morton, in case there
is any movement in favor of making
him the choice of the Nebraska
democracy for president next year. Mr.
Morton has many warm supporters
among the leading men of the party,
but there is unquestionably a spirit of
revolt. It is pretty tough when we get
a democrat who is able to make a
national reputation and bring credit
upon his party and his state, to have
his own party go back on him.
It b said that H. B. Sawyer may be
a candidate for water commissioner
next year. Henty Myers is also spoken
of in connection with the same office.
There are at least two bad things
about Sam Low, the republican candi
date for clerk of the district court, lie
isn't nearly as old as Samuel Maxwell,
the populist candidate for the supreme
bench. But then there are few candi
dates for office in Nebraska this year
who have reached Maxwell's age.
Another bad thing is the fact that at a
time when everybody is just rolling in
wealth, in a community where money is
so plenty that it is used for fuel Mr
Low is foolish enough to be poor. His
youth is really not his fault. But
there is no excuse for his failure to be
wealthy, when wealth is bo common
Were it not for these two things Mr.
Low would be h pretty strong candidate.
Aud jg John Trompenf the repui,.
Hcan candidate for sheriff: There are
objections to him on account of his
short residence in Nebraska. Tiompen
has only lived in the Btate twenty or
thirty yeais. And he has only been a
Btrong, loyal, hard working republican
a comparatively short time, only since
he was about fifteen years old.

2 TWO YOUNG ARTISTS 2
Several years ago Miss Bessie Tuttle,
then a student at the state university,
left Lincoln and went to study at the
Chicago Art Institute. We all heard
of her progress from time to time, and
last year the most promising pictures
exhibited at the state fair were by
Miss Tuttle. Ihis summer Mips Tuttle
returned to Lincoln and now has charge
of the art departmental the Polytechnic
Imtitute. If Miss Tuttle had chosen
from the whole surrounding country
she could not have found a better
location for a studio. Up in the second
story of the institute her windows
overlook all that is worth seeing in the
landscape. The atmospheric effects are
fine, the rambling prosaic town of Lin
coln at that distance is dissolved into
mere patches of color, red, gray, smoke,
opal and purple. All the vegetation in
the surrounding country is visible and
1 never knew there were so many trees
about Lincoln or that their tinted
foliage could be so effective until I
looked out of those studio windows. A
few hours a week in that charming
studio under the influence of Miss
Tuttle's enthusiasm ought to succeed
in awakening anyone's artistic sen
sibilities, even if they have been sleeping
the long sleep of a western small town
for years. The walls of the room are
hung with studies in charcoal and color
by Miss Tuttle and the work of her
pupils is scattered about on easels. I
know nothing better that could be said
of Miss Tuttle's own work than that it
is entirely "With the Procession," of
the newest school and most advanced
methods both as to conception and
treatment. -The Chicago Art Institute
has been peculiarly influenced by the
modern Frencb artists and Miss
Tuttle's work is full of that spirit. Then
there is about her pictures a sort of
gentle reflective ideality which is in
dividual and characteristic of their
author. She has already quite a num
ber of special purils from Lincoln
beside the students from the Institute.
There are a number of people who will
be glad to avail themselves of t ho oppor
tunity of studying with a young and
enthusiastic artist who is fresh from
one of the best art schools. Miss
Tuttle has just cast a bust of Dr. H. M.
Everett which is really an unusually
good piece of work.
m
Another promising young student is
Mr. Charles Hagenow, brother of
Augvst llagenow, the young musician
who leads the Lansing orchestra and
plays the 'cello in the Sunday afternoon
concerts at the Universalist church.
Mr. Hagenow has been studying music
in Chicago for the past three yearp,
playing first violin in the or
chestra that gives the Sunday
concerts in the hall of the Turner
society on the West Side. The 'cello
is only Mr. Hagenow's secondary
instrument, but his performance on
it last Sunday undoubtedly gives him
the place of first 'celloist in the city.
Hi has brought with him from Chicago
a rare instrument.
