Col. Rochester made another one Of
his impressive Railroad speeches at Liber-
ty, Monday, but il seems to have very little
effect, as only few donations Of ties we're
obtained. Mr.. X. said that it was the
most complete "water-haul'' that he had
made.
"A difficulty occurred last week at Rich
Hill, between John and George Stratum
and man named Mole, in which the lat.
ter was terribly used up. His arm was
broken, besides several ugly gsshes cut in
his head. The Strathums were promptly
arrested and their trial set for yesterday at
Liberty, but we were unable to learn the
result.
Maj. +. F. Rigney has announced him
self candidate for the Senate, to ell out
the unexpired term caused by the death Of
Hoo. Robt. Balm. Mr.. Rigney is clever
gentleman, well fitted for the position, and
bis extensive acquaintance will make him
a dangerous competitor in the field. There
are those here who say they intend to have
Mr.. r. or Judge NJ. ]. Durham, Of Boyle,
to represent them in the next Senate OF
Kentucky.
Monday was County Court day at Lib
erty. There was a very small crowd in
town, very little business was done. A
great deal Of whisky on board and not
much drunkenness. George Bowman
seemed to have imbibed more freely than
any one else, and wanted to fight little IA
year old boy, but his father, Judge Win
ston Bowman, interlered and called for the
Sheriff, and when left town J. j. Tate
was arming him in the direction Of the
Jail.

IT is said that the 306 who voted
for Grant for third term first, last
and all the time at the Chicago con.
vention, are taking preliminary action
at Washington looking to the organi-
cation of permanent political associ-
ton to be composed of the 306, and
which is also to be the nucleus of a
new political party of the stalwart
school. We suppose it is their pur-
pose to try and shove Grant through
at the next convention.

The new rule adopted by the House
cuts of all discussion, gives the major.
ity the power to do as it will, and is
not only tyranical breaking down Of
all barriers against high handed,
crude. and hasty majority rule, but
offers no alternative to the minority
and proposes consideration OF but one
view. 1t DEGREES for the House the
right to non-concur, but does not
even offer the alternative of concur
renee in the Senate bill. The Cincin-
natl Ne,cs in speaking of it says a
more outrageous violation Of minority
rights was never proposed in the re-
construction days, when majority tyr
amy was supposed to have reached its
climax. The fundamental idea that
there are two sides to every question is
deliberately rejected by those who call
themselves representatives of the peO-
pie. Democrats were justified by any
means within reach, which were not
violations of law and parliamentary
usage, in endeavoring to teach them
that there are two sides to this ques.
ton.

SINCE the Inauguration of the Gus
tom by Grant-of having new furni.
ture placed in ne White House each
year, that establishment has cost the
people mint of money. In 1881,
$4,000 was appropriated for repairs
and furniture and 1900 for fuel and
greenhouses. In 1882. $4,000 for
the first items and 81, 800 for the lat.
ter. For this year $4,000 for repairs
and furniture and $1,000 for fuel and
greenhouses and $3S, 900 is asked for
next year. The New York Sun says;
Directly and indirectly there is voted
for the President and for the Execu.
tive Mansion such a sum as will make,
with other advantages, the allowance
made TO the President exceed one
hundred thousand dollars year. And
there Is more aflectation of court life
about the White House than has ever
been known there. There is a poor
prospect for an economical Govern
ment with such a costly Executive
establishment at the head.

attended to his business. The impress

LEXINGTON is somewhat excited
over the fact that the Catholic element
have threatened death to O'Conner,
an ex.priest, if he dares TO lecture
there on "Why | became a priest and
why gave it up" The managers Of
public halls we're also notified that
unless they wanted them seriously
damaged, they had best not rent them
to him. This occurring in country
which boasts of its freedom of speech
and general personal liberty, created
great indignation among the better
class of citizens, who have offered to
arm themselves and be ready to an
swer the call of the Mayor in case
they are wanted to see that his or
der offering protection to O'Conner
during his lecture and while in the
city, is respected. Things have come
to a pretty pass when set OF men pro-
pose to illegally abridge the rights of
any person in this alleged free coun-
try, and unless the officers of the Cath
ole Church disclaim their entire disap.
prevail ofsuch an outrageous course,
their cause will be greatly damaged
and the Church brought into Odium
and disgrace.

VIZ learn from the Frankfort Yeo-
man that "there was received and paid
into the Treasury during the month
Of February, just closed, on account
of revenue 1882, 1858, 651.2S. This is
s47, 1882 more than has been collect.
ed in the same time and from the same
source within ten years past. Very
much Of this success is no doubt at
tributed to a very fair and just rule
established by Auditor Hewitt, the
purport Of which was embraced in a
circular letter addressed TO the sher.
ifs under date Of January 10th, 'S3,
and was, in substance, that in paying
the school drafts he should, in issuing
his warrants on the Treasury, give
precedence to counties which had paid
the largest proportion Of the revenue
due from them into the Treasury. As
the money in the Treasury, to credit
Of School Fund, was not sufficient to
meet all the demands from that source
it became absolutely necessary that
some such rule of action should be
laid down, and with but one or two
exceptions the perfect fairness of the
course has been acknowledged on the
part of our School Commissioners"

The Lexington Observer in an artl'
Gle highly complimentary to Judge
M. ii. Owsley, candidate for Cover
nor, says: "When his name was first
suggested for that important and hon.
orable position, he was comparatively
unknown to at least one-third Of the
people of the State. This very fact
stimulated enquiry, and caused the
people to ask each other why it is that
he has been 50 persistently honored by
public Offices in his own district, and
so uniformly sustained by all classes
Of people. The answers to these
questions have made public the truth
that he is honest in every conviction,
faithful to every trust, and fearless in
the discharge Of every duty. Justice
before mercy, the public good before
private preferences, right before ex-
pediency, and duty before all else,
have been the maxims Of his life, and
the web and wool Of bis history.
These are the characteristics that have
given him such a hold upon the res
pect and affection OF his own people,
and which are now making for him,
day by day, as they become more
widely known, friends by the thou.
sands where heretofore only strangers
existed. The people want such men
for every office in the State, and now
that the question of fitness is the
prominent one with the people, the
good work should be kept up until
every demagogue, every professional
office seeker and every unfit office
holder are retired to the walks Of pri-
vate life, to the benefit of the State
and the good Of suffering humanity"

THERE are some reforms suggested by
the late election that should be made be-
fore We enter upon another campaign.
One of these is in the location of polling
places. The laws of this State
expressly prohibit the sale of liquor on
election day, and the keeping open of a
saloon on election days in violation of the
law ~forfeits the license; but the mayor of
Omaha and The county commissioners,
who are supposed to be law-abiding citi-
zens, and as officers should take an inter
est in sustaining the laws, have set the
example Of lawlessness by locating the
voting places in four out of the six city
precincts in q saloon or next door to a
saloon. Voters were compelled to go
through bar-rooms crowded with drunken
and drinking men, and candidates were
almost compelled to treat voters who are
addicted to drinking. 1t may be that the
law closing saloons on election day will
have to remain a dead letter until some
innocent citizen is slaughtered at the
polls by drunken rowdies, but some re.
spect ought to be paid to the law by the
law officers when they locate the voting
places.

ANOTHER hundred thousand dollars OF
paving bonds has been voted. This
means hat four hundred thousand dol
lars will be expended in Omaha for street
paving next season. In other words the
city will invest 800, 600 for paving the
Intersections of streets and the property
OF the streets to be paved will contribute
$500, 600 for paving the streets. After all
this will not be a very heavy burden
upon the property owners. They have
five years in which to pay their paving
tax.
Besides the $500, 900 there will be full
ly $1O0, 900 paid out next spring for paw
ing already under contract and for which
bonds had been voted last year. Half
a million dollars in solid public improve
ments will be a very nice beginning for
1884. There is no doubt now that
Omaha will expend a million dollars for
grading, paving and sewerage within the
next twelve months. We may safely
count upon two or three millions more to
be planted upon Omaha soil next year in
the shape of factories, warehouses, ele-
vators, store buildings and dwellings.
The outlook for Omaha is very bright, in
fact brighter than that of any other city
west of the Mississippi.

THEN AND NOW"

The campaign that has Just closed in
Nebraska was a judicial one. There was
10 great Anti Monopoly issue as was
fought over in the campaign last year.
There was nothing to u the pro-
ducing masses to activity in this contest
and it would therefore be unreasonable
to make comparison with last years re-
turns. Then we had to elect three Con-
gressmen, q Legislature that was to
chose q United States Senator and a full
set of State officers from Governor down.
Now we had simply acontest forSupreme
Judge and half a dozen District Judges
whose nominations were not endorsed by
all parties. There was no canvass made
and the only excitement was over District
Judges and county officials. The legiti-
mate comparison of results must be made
with the returns Of the last judicial cleo.
ton when the same class of officers were
voted for. At that election Samuel
Maxwell, the Republican candidate for
Supreme Judge, received 6 1892 votes.
and William II. Munger, his Demo-
cratic opponent, received 20,653 votes.
Judge Maxwell was therefore elected by
a majority of 1850 votes. 1t is safe to
say that n. b. Reese, the Republican
candidate for Supreme Judge this year,
has fallen fully 10000 votes behind the
majority of Judge Maxwell. What a
fall was there, my countrymen! Can
Republican leaders still blind themselves
to the fact that the party ranks have been
fearfully decimated by the railroad rot.
Let them look the facts squarely in the
face by comparing this years returns with
those of two years ago, when the issues
OF the campaign were identical. Look at
the figures as they stare them in the
face: Adams county, which gave Max
well 1868 majority, gives Reese only AGO;
Boone county gave Maxwell 652, Reese
less than 100; Buffalo gave Maxwell $50,
Reese, 450; Burt gave Maxwell Dos.
Reese, Ill; cass, which gave Maxwell ga,
is against Reese by s7;Clay gave Maxwell
655, Reese, q fraction over 400; Douglas
gave Maxwell 32I, and goes sver 1900
against Reese, 9 loss Of over 1850 votes
