To be governor of Nebraska just
now requires considerable nerve and
determination. Several murderers
have already been hung this spring,
and there are others under sentence
of death. Strong efforts were made
to get repricyes for those who have
been executed, and every effort is
being made in behalf of those await
ing execution, but Gov. Nance refu-
ses to interfere with the edicts of the
iuries and courts.

IT is well for republicans to re-
member that none but the most silly
demagogues howl about soldiers in
terfering with elections. When DEM
ocrats make it a party issue, they
show an ignorance and vindictive-
ness that will cripple their party.

The extra session of congress still
grinds away at bills against every

ident has already vetoed three bills
that sought to cripple the very exis-

trust the executive will keep at il
SO long as rebels continue their reck-
less stabs. They will either have to
pass the right kind of bills or 60

fell sleep. Whether the cave WAS i'm.

curious to think Of this in connection

reasonably allow that for an occasional

A FRIoHTFUL BuGBEAR.-To the
Workingman OF average ignorance ard
prejudice, the word 'corporntion' has a
rascally meaning. Computation thieves
is the opprobious epithet Of the Sand-lot
applied indisciiminaiely tu all classes of
corporuti ms. From the Kearney stand
point they are all robbers, and ought to
be crushed out. The new Constitution
embudies thi. ignorance and unjust pre-
jadice, having been framed with spec
ial view 10 'cinching the corporations, as
its advocates openly boast.
Now it must be apparent to any man
of ordinary intelligence shat no enterprise
of great magnitude can be inauguratcd
and carried To successful issue without
the combination Of private capital. No
plan for furnishing large city with wa
ter o" gas-n0 extensive manufacturing
enterpri,e-no saie system OF banking or
lnsurance-is possible. except by corp'r
ation>. Hence, the howl, emsnating from
the Snnd-lot against corporations, Is
simply ;he rawlings Of ignorance. OF
course, nll corporations dealing with
the public should be subject TO whole
some regulations. They should not be
allowed 10 practice extortion, or abuse
the power which combination of capital
necessarily gives them. At the same
time their rights should be respected
and they should be protected in all pro-
per ways SPIRIT Ofthe Times.
