CONE JOHN NJ. THAYER.p

The City Council of Omaha has adopted
a preamble declaring that one John NJ.
Thayer has been invited to attend the recep-
ton to President Harrison. and has resolved
that the said John NJ. Thayer be treated as
private citizen, not as Governor of Ne
braska. The offense Of zone John NJ
Thayer" is that the Supreme Court of Ne
braska decided that the man who received
the largest number of votes at tie recent
election was an alien and consequently not
eligible to the Office Of Governor. 1t also de-
cided that as no Governor had been elected
to succeed zone John III. Thayer," the
said John n. Thayer" is still Governor.
The Omaha Council appears TO have turned
their batteries in the wrong direction. They
should have been trained to bear upon the
Supreme Court. Mr.. Thayer had presum-
ably nothing to do with the decision declar-
ing him the lawful Governor. If it is con-
tended that the Supreme Court takes its law
from him so much the more reason why the
resolutions Of the council should be brought
20 bear on that tribunal
