TIE Omaha Republican will, in October
next, pass into the hands OF Sterling P.
Rounds, the present very efficient Public
Printer of the National Government. The
price paid for the plant and good will is
said to have been 500, 900 cash. 1t is re-
ported that Mr.. Rounds will, in few days,
tender his resignation as Public Printer to
the President. He will retire from this very
important Office full OF honors. He has,
undoubtedly, been the most efficient Pub

His son-in-law, the brilliant and versatile
o. H. Rothacker, will be the editor.in-chief
of the Republican. and he will surround
himself with staff that will at once place
the paper to the front among the journals |

that they are liable to be captured and if

The cast iron impudence OF John Sher.
man was never made more apparent than
in his speech on the Payne case in the Sen.
ate Wednesday. The name Sherman is a
synonym for all that is bad ard corrupt in
politics. Since his advent into public life
John Sherman has never hesitated at the
methods to be used to subserve his ends or
those OF his party, and as bold as he is
interruptions, he has has usually been
successful. His private life has been
no purer than his public. Leaving
the House OF Representatives to
sneak into the Senate when his betters
were fighting the battles of the Union, this
man traded on their blood and the neces.
stiles of his country and coined money at
the expense OF both. He has never made
an honest dollar outside OF his salary OF
50, 900 per year, yet from pauper twenty
years ago, he is to-day double q millionaire.
This is as briefly as it can be told the his
tory OF the Uriah Heep Who has the
audacity to arise in his seat and
insult the intelligence and outrage the CON-
mon sense of the Democracy of Ohio. Mr..
Sherman is SO stepped in political iniquity
that he cannot under any circumstances
imagine that there can be any honesty in
politics. The Office of mouth-piece for a |
oand of thieves and slanderers who are
bounding Mr.. Payne, is exactly in his line. |
He is veritable ghoul, who feasts and |
attens ON the regulations that he can
uin. His race is nearly run, and the
ooner he is retired from position the better
will be for the good name of his State
md the country. While the President
econded by the people of the United States
q making strenuous efforts to purify poll
ics, such men as Sherman are standing
of the success that attends
orruption. That the Senate resolutely
.fused to follow his lead does not lessen
is crime. He sought by the msanest of
'ethods, and by insinnations where he

A Bear Story


A couple of gentlemen from Harris.
vile had rather an interesting ex-
perience with a bear some time since.
The men, a Mr.. Murdoch and George
Webster. were camped in Wade's pas
ture, in the north end of Ogden Valley,
getting wood. They had camped for
the night and had just gone to bed
when there was a disturbance among
their horses, a short distance from
where they were sleeping. Investigation
showed that a small black bear had
come down to the camp and was making
an attack on one of the horses. The
animal did not seem to take kindly to
the Interference of bruin and wheeling
around administered some heavy kicks
in his ribs, causing the bear to roll over
on the ground. The knocking down
process did not seem to agree with the
bears ideas of the fitness of things, and
he retaliated by striking the horse with
his ponderous paw on the side. The
campers did not have a weapon of any
kind with them and to quiet his bear
ship finally turned the horse loose.
Bruin still fingered in that vicinity
however, and disturbed the slumbers Of
our heroes considerably during the
rest of the night. The horses side was
considerably scratched by the bears
paw; but he was not seriously injured.
Neither OF the men was hurt.
