Politics and Sewerage Mt Kearney.

KEARSEY, Neb, Nov. 3.-lSpecial Tele-
gram to TuE BEE. 1.-The all-absorbing In
terest iu locai politics here is the sewer oues'
ton. A complete sewerage plan OF the city
has been made, calling for twenty-four inch
mains aud laterals to correspond. A call has
been made for $40, 900 bonds. The opposition
seems to bo strong. All of the active busI;
ness men urge the matter, and the opposi-
tion generally cones from men who do not
understand the requirements OF the city, or
less-the proposed plan of sewerage.
b County politics are divided ON republican
straight aud combination of democrats
with all the political creeds known in the
west. The field has been well canvasscd by
both parties, and reports are encouraging for
strong republican gains over last year.

"TEN DOLLARS AND COSTS.
DIR. Lamar'S Sermon TO the Omaha
Workingmen.


DIR. Lamar's Sermon TO the Omaha
Worltingmen.
A large audience gathered in the Grand
opera house yesterday afternoon to listen to
the first of the series of sermons to working
people by DIR. Lamar. All classes OF me-
chanics and other laboring were represented,
and there was also sprinkllng OF we'll
groomed darllngs of fortune, who evidently
appreciate the dignity OF labor and are will
ing to be styled working men,
The music for the occasion was number
OF gospel hymns on printed slips which were
distributed among the members OF the audi
ence.
The subject of the discourse was, as an
nounced, 'Ten Dollars and Costs" and the
members of the audience paid the highest
possible compliment to the speaker by listen
ing intently from beginning to end. DIR. La
mar said that the preceding Monday morn
ing he had visited the police court and seen
the motley array of prisoners arraigned
before the judge. He described the
appearance of some of the miserable culprits
whose careers of vice, debauchery and crimo
had left their tell-tale traces on their fea-
lures. Certain vagabonds, drunkards and
thieves were delineated, recalling to mind
the fellows whose faces have become ia
miliar IN the police court. Yet even the
viest of the vile in that motley crowd had
once been pure and innocent. Ali had
mothers whose hopes were once built upon
them. All, at one time, had doubtless given
promise of a noble, useful life, but step by
step they had gone down IN sin, stride by
stride they had gone from one vice to an :
other, until they lost their seif-respect and
ambition and blasted the hopes once re-
posed in them. Here they were finally in
the police court, dishonored.
Some OF the culprits had been fined $40
and costs, some more, and others less. But
this fine was but u little part of what they
had lost. They had lost character, self re-
spect and reputation. Yet there is chance
for these men to be saved. 1t was for such
as these that the Redeemer died upon the
cross and declared that although their sins
were as scarlet they thould be made as wool,
and though they were as red as crimson they
should be made as white as snow.

Thoro was warm discussion over tho
