Nebraska,s county Sea, war.

Omaha Bee: The situation in Perkins
county, Neb., growing out of the o
hict regarding the county seat, is becom-
ing serious. Thus fer bloodehed has
been averted only by the most jealous
efforts Of the law-respeoting citizens,
but the passions Of the ~contending fact
IONS are at the fighting point, and re-
course to violence may happen any hour.
S1oh an outcome Of the contention it is
the duty Of the authorities, county and
state. to prevent, and thorough measures
should be adopted and firmly carried
out for this purpose. The determination
of the Question in Issue must be made
peaceably and the warning factions
ought to be made to understand that its
determination in any other way will not
stand. No question can be settled by
violence IN the state OF Nebraska, where
the laws ara ample for every requirement
the court always accessible, and Justice
is assured to all citizens. We confident
ly trust that the issue in Perkins county
may not go beyond the point of hot and
angry controversy 1t has already reach
ed, and that the prudent counsel of its
law-respecting citizens will prevail to
the extent of averting any recourse to
violence. Hot-headed and reckless men,
being advised and warned, must il they
presist in their course be compelled 80
regard the laws.
