position of his record and his policy.
General Van Wyck is the only avowed
senatorial candidate who has made
personal canvass of ihe state and met

Church aowe's Campaign Lies.

CnurCn HOWe'S Campaign Lies.
have just received q letter from Ben
nett, Lancaster county, which contains
the following extract:
Mr. Howe, the candidate for congress, was
at Bennett Oh the 18th. His public abuse of
you and your paper did not meet with as
much success rs he desired. Mr.. Howe's
next method was to whisper something he
dared not state in public, viz: that there was
a conversation held between you and him at
Beatrice after his nomination. Did you, Mr..
Rosewater, call c hurch Howe into private
room at Beatrice after his no mination for
congress and ask him (Church Howe) how
much he (Howe) would give you to keep
quiet during this campaign? Did Howe
reply that he W ould not give you anything
and would not buy his way to congressp
Our informant says that the story about
my pretended interview with Howe at
Beatrice is being circulated privately, to-
gether with a statement that | had offered
TO support Howe for the nomination if
he would come to my terms.
There is not q word of truth in either
of these reports. The only conversation
l had with Church Howe at
Beatrice was in the street and
in the presence and hearing of
Paul Schminke and several delegates
from Otoe county. Paul Schminke had
just said to Church Howe that he could
rely on the whole delegation, when [
stepped up and denounced it, adding that
it would be ruinous, to Van Wyck for
Otoe county TO cast its vote for Howe. |
was talking to Schminke, but Howe
turned around and scornfully said:
I'm make good any votes that Van
Wyck will lose or that you can take away
from him."
replied rather tersely that Howe would
have no votes to give to Van Wyck after
the election, when the trumpet of Gabriel
would not resurrect him. This was the
only talk had with Howe at Beatrice.
did not even sec him after the conven.
ton adjourned.
Equally untrue is the story that 1 ever
offered to support Howe on any terms.
He called at my Office two or three times
last summer, and the last time he called
put the question squarely whether l
could be induced TO support him. |
told him it was utterly out of the question
WIN ms luc DOsltlOn
the BEE had always maintained with
regard 10 his conduct. Howe then begged
me not TO oppose him until after he was
nominated, To this l simply said
| would see about that. On re-
Election 1t struck me that Howe
might possibly be nominated, if his party
treason and general bad record were not
shown up. 1t struck me also that Howe's
anxiety to be let alone until after the
nomination was designed 20 place me in
a false light before the party. To keep
still about him before the nomination
would have given him a chance to charge
that my opposition at that iuncture was
the result of bargain with the demo-
Gratis. Republicans would doubtless
have asked why the BEE did not warn
the party against Church Ilowe's candi-
dacy, why 1t did not show up his record
before he was nominated, and give the
party a chance TO select better man.
Having decided to give no such excuse
for Howe and his supporters made a
very vigorous fight against his nomlna-
ton. i kept before republicans the rec

Snowshoc Thompson's Remark able
ErafG

Overland Monthly; If not the swiftcst,
it is universally conceded that, even up
TO the time OF his death Thompson was
the most expert SnOwshOC runner in the
Sierra Nevada mountains. At Silver
mountain, Alpine county, California III
1870 when he WAS 81 years of age, he ran
distance of l,GOO feet in twenty-onc
seconds There were many snowshoers
at that place, but in daring Thompson
surpassed them all. Near the town was
big mountain, where the people of the
place were wont 10 assemble on bright
days in the winter TO the number Of 200
or 300 Tne ordinary snowshoers
to where there was bench, and
then glide down II beaten path.
This was too tame for Thompson. He
would make II circuit of over mile and
come out on the top of the mountain.
When he appeared on the peaH he wonld
give one Of his Wild, high Sierra wkoops,
poise his balance pole and dart down the
face of the mountain at Lightning speed,
leaping all the terraces from top TO
bottom, and gliding for out on the leAel
before halting. Snowshoe Thompson
seldom performed any feat for the mere
name and fame Of doing ii difficult and
daring thing Yet W +. Merrill post
master at Woodford's, Aldinn county,
writes me as fo lows IN spcaeng OF some
of Thompson's achievements; "lIc

Indians have been lounging about the

carry plenty of silver. Old settlers know
them well. They are the gamblers of

pilgrimages to this point at the time
when the Yakima and Klickitat Indians
are we'll provided with money earned by
