The following from Frank Leslies
Illustrated Newspaper owned and edited
by W. j. Akrell and Russell B Harrison
is significant as revealing with " hat polit-
ical feeling the president views the recent
removal of Governor Boyd from the
gubernatorial chair of Nebraska by the
supreme court of that state:
The displacement. through legal tech
,nicality, of the democratic governor of
Nebraska, Mr.. Boyd. from the high
office to which he was fairly elected, is
mistake Of the gravest character. 1t must
result in lasting injury to the republican
party in that state, and in the nation, uu
less the mistake is promptly. and COM
pletelY rectifed. The result of Gov,
Boyds displacement is to place the Guber>
material Office in the hands of a republi-
can, thou Oh q democrat was elected by a
fair and b onest election, and a clear and
decided majority.
Whether or not the republican party in
Nebraska will be held responsible for
carrying the matter of Governor Boyds
citizenship into the courts is not the
question. Peope will simply regard his
removal after he had been elected as the
result Of political conspiracy, and
public opinion is intoersnt Of any trifling
with the results Of honest elections after
such results have been acknowledged
declared and accepted.
The republican press has been out

unfair and prepOsterous gerrymanderS of
number Of states in the east and west
to secure and perpetuate democratic
legislatures and to secure the control of
a majority Of congressional districts for

has not justified these gerrymanders, and
will not sustain them when the test is
made by an appeal TO the voters of the
respective states next fall.
The American loves nothing better
than fair play and honesty IN and out of
politics, and the honest thing for all par
ties is to accept the result of every cleo

and honestly counted as the end and fin

In Nebraska the possession of the gu
