are done fovever with that sort of law

know our personal rights and they

We also spnfh and hurl back in
his teeth the false and presumptuous
charge that we are lacking in chivalry
and courtesy toward the ladies of Col
umbus or any where else: His paper
containing his sosealled invitation to
us to visit Columbus and investigate
the |. |. & G. troubles for 0dfself, and
which closed with q vulgar, gatuit-
Gus insult, was never received at
this office; and the said invitation
was never seen until clipped out of
his paper by o friend and sent to us
after the whole matter had gotten
cold.
Moreover, the charge oflack of chiv-
airy comes with ill-ftting grace
from one who published, ,6ith his en-
dOrsemeRt, the reflections and grave
charges heGped upon one set of ladies
at Columbus by another-the commu.

Banks car only be accounted for
in the light of the inordinate arfo-

him to his own faults and magnifies
an hundred fold those of others.

ever did so, we at least had the cour-
age and manliness to say it in a

Mr.. Ogden, "thes are hard to work,

of course not; we never can catch u

ooh, cunning enemy, that to catch saint
with saints doth bait thy hook"
If those preachers in Texas who
were "worked" 90 successfully" do
not hang their heads with shame on
reading the above, we pity them and
their congregations. And in Pennsyl-
vania, Massachusetts, and the other
States in which campaigns have been
held, how successfully" this fishing
was done! What HAUL of clergy

not mass meeting gotten up by the
Liquor dealers Association in Phila-
delphia, hardly q document or tract
issued by them that did not. purport
TO be High License meeting or a
High License tract. But the liquor
dealers kept out of sight, and the
documents they circulated were filled
with the names of lawyers, ministers,
anybody but liquor dealers.
"Keep the saloon element in the
background; "Don't make it a whis-
ky fight Why? Because the saloon
has no decent defense to make for
itself, and the saloon keepers know
it. Think of it! When the very exis-
tence of the wretched business is at
stake, these men don't dare to stand
before the American people for min
ute to defend their business. 1t has
no defense, in Nebraska or anywhere
else, and all the millions invested in
it cannot find defence for the saloon
that is fit to appear in print or to be
uttered aloud in public meeting,
and these men know it. And so we
have "High License" "rights as free
born citizens" "Prohibition does not
prohibit"- anything that will divert
attention from the one naked issue
SHALL THE SALOON SURVIVE? Heav-
en- help us when the "watchman of
Zion" have their visions so impaired
that the devil can pass himself off as
saint by merely covering, up his
horns and sticking his tail in his
pocket.
Citizens of Nebraska land Mississ-
ippil the saloon is a sneak and hyp-
Ocrite. 1t is already tying to hide
itself from your eyes under every
possible device. 1t has no defence,
and all these efforts to divert your
attention from it have their inception
with the liquordealers, whoever it
may be that carries them out. 1t is
safe to say that business that can
not offer any defence when its life is
at stake has no defence shat can be
offered.

the announcement that he would be a

A GOOD RADIANCE,

Possibly the details of the passage in
which SITTING BULL was translated
into the good Indian will mitigate the
impression so long and generally held
that he has been conStitutionally averSe
to taking chances where deadly missiles
were hunting for victims. He has had
the reputation of greatly preferring to
leave monopoly of the killing business
to others. In fact, he has had no curl
osity as understood to be subjected to
any experiments of this sort. 1t has
been serious misfortune to the coun-
try and misplaced exhibition of lenity
that he was not hung up fourteen years
ago. He may have been given more
nOtoriety than he was entitled to in con-
nection with the CUSTER massacre, but
his responsibility was more than
sufficient to warrant his eXtinc
ton. He was naturally an migrate
and treacherous. His influence has
been constantly bad. His charac-
teriSticS were such that his translation
into a good Indian could only be effect
ed by an event like that which met him
in the interview with the Indian police.
An obituary sketch of his virtues would
be only notable for its brevity. But he
had craft and dexterity enough TO i'm
press large following that he was a
veritable medicine man. His influence,
however. it is believed, will be found to
have been overrated, and his death at
the hands of other Indians was most
commonplace and uninSpiring. 1t was
not worthy of one mySteriouSly wise,
who should be able TO discover coming
events and battle them. The death of
SITTING BULL is matter Of congratu-
alton, as the removal of nuisance,
one whose offenses deserved the severest
penalties. But it is probable that it
will not be found very impor-
tant incident in the present Indian stu
alton. There may be something of an
object lesson in it of the result of keep
ing up the row they have been led into.
SITTING BULL may have had hold in
the superStitIouS natures of a class that
could be led to mischief, but a little
time will indicate whether it is to be a
source of apprehension. 1t is more
probable that the demise of the old
trickster will have favorable effect
upon the viclously disposed, and could
about dozen others be sent to give
him companionship. the danger of vio-
lence would be dissipated.
