EDITOR There is much
In law that deserves all the encomiums
lsvished upon it. At the same time it
contains very much that shocks the
sensibilities Of anyone who has not set
up property as the greatest thing in
the world, If not in the universe.
Lovers Of justice know only too well
the in difference with which their pleas
for the toller are received. Their ef-
forts In behalf Of those in dangerous
pursuits are almost unsvailing. No
legislative body seems troubled to
think that $4,000 lives are sacrificed
every year just among our railroad en-
gineers, brakemen, etc. Property is
more important than life, limb, or hap
piness of poor man.
Everyone knows how vain it is for
a railroad employe to try to get dam.

plOyer's service. If jury awards him
few dollars, some ruling of the court
will be seized upon as pretext for ap-
pealing the case to higher tribunal
Vexstious delays ensue. The railroad

Days, weeks, months go by. They
lengthen into years. Perhaps the case is
remanded to the lower court. The plain
tiff's funds are exhausted. His wit
nesses are scattered. He settles for
pittance or perhaps gives up in despair.
All this is familiar to the reader.
But 1t is almost intolerable to find
prominent jurists who are lauded for
their wisdom, justice and moderation,
boldly and openly opposing the work

fering and injury in general that only
the fear of being destitute or helpless
in the event Of an accident, restrains
him from carelessness. He says in his
work on torts: 'No one should be
tempted to imperfect vigilance by any
promise the law might make to com
pensate him for injuries against which
his own caution might perhaps have
protected not himself alone, but others
Also" And for this weighty reason,
that he may be made more cautious, the
law fsvors shutting him out from COM
pensationl
Moreover, an employer is not respon-
sible on account of injuries to an en-
ploye caused by negligence on part of
fellow employe.
Yet there are people who belieVethat
laws invariably protect outright to life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Men are cheap. Property alone is val
liable. "Down with manhood; up with
gold," is the unspoken shibboleth Of
the plutocrscy.

The governor reviewed at length tho

A Retrospective View.

periods OF apparent cessation, or breath
ing spells, In which leading and con-
trolling spirits calmly survey the past,
detect, il possible, errors committed,
and Icy wise and permanent plans FOR Ru-
turs operations. And frequently, final
results depend much more largely upon
the wisdom displayed 10 thus work OF
planning than in tho power, numerical
force, or energy employed in the final
execution OF these plans.
Evidently the Peoples party has now
reached such breathing spell in the tre-
mendous struggle in which we are en-
gagged. The conference recently held in
ST. Louis gives evidence Of this fact; and
the fact that in the conference it was
determined to stand firmly by the ma
tionRl platform adopted at Omaha two
years ego, affords pleasing assurance
that the members Of said conference
fully comprehend the Importance OF
maintaining the grand principles which
alone can possibly bring success to the
movement. The fact that plutoOrRtiC
conspiracy had demonetized silver and
preoipitsEed a struggle Of such proper
tlons as to almost overshsdow all other
issues, had justly created more or less
apprehension that the next national
convention OF the Peoples party might
be betrayed into 30 narrowing our plat

more of the three essentials.

Of our past history, 80 as to be able to de-

lease from the performance Of public
Official duties as will enable us to more

In reviewing the past Of Populistic
rule in this state, we are led to wonder
how 80 much has been accomplished in
the face of such tremenduous odds. In
the old parties for many years past,
everything has been subordlnRted to the
objsct Of Office holding as g means Of
possessing the spolls. Hence the chiefs
OF departments have made all selections
Of subordinRtes, with a view solely to
their subserViency to the personal inter
ests Of the chiefs. In these principles Of
Of political tactics, nearly all recruits to
the Peoples party have been schooled.
Our whole education has led to the con-
clusion that policy should be flrst and
principle second in oil our movements.

think my nomination would be very
acceptable to the Populist party. 1t
would insure successful fusion in 1896.

the fact that Democratic politicians

Governor, Democratic influences VIII not

A TWILIGHT SONG.

sMeantime as nature Wills, night bids MS
rest"
Paradise Lost.
Night brings US rest! The twilight pink and
golden
Is turning swift to gray in the far west
The night-wind whispers to the roses folden,
A tale swept DER the tree-tops grim and
olden-
a murmur from some far-of land of rest.
The.whippoorwill isisoftly calling, calling,
The drowsy birds are twittering in the
nest,
The dew-drops CLEAN like diamonds in their
falling,
The spell Of eve senses all enthralling-
Weary We are, and nighttime brings us
rest.
The little boats that all the day were drift
ing,
Across the oceans blue and changing
breast,
At eventide their white wings calmly lift
ing
Noiseless as summer breezes softly shifting
Have fitted far away to home and rest.
Like tender ghosts are tall white lilies
cleaning,
They wake gentle sadness unconfessed
Which is not grief, althoughits subtle seem
But only that sweet pain we find in dream
When day is done and night is wrapped in
rest.

Before Leaving NesC York He Talked to

NEW YORK, n. Y, Sept 80. - At the
Madison-square Garden to-day Champion
James ]. Corbett made his farewell bow to
New York prior to his fight with Bob
Fitzsimmons on October 81. The cham
pion leaves for Texas tomorrow for final
preparations.
During the afternoon Corbett gave an
exhibition of his training methods, in
Guiding bag-punching, machine exercises
wrestling, etc. In the evening there were
a series of bouts mostly between local
lights, and the 4000 spectators were by no
means patient in awaiting the coming of
the champion.
Corbett was a little on the fleshy side,
hut will doubtless train down in month.
When Corbett clambered through the
ropes be met an enthusiastic reception and
loud calls for a speech. He said:
"Of course you all know that am going
down to Texas to get ready to meet Mr..

dence in the ability of the Florida Athletic
Club to bring off the contest. If the prin-

are we will not come back from Texas

YALE MEN FAYORITES.
1t Is Expected That They VIII Defeat the
English athletes.

EnGtiSh athletes.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Sept. 30.-Every-
thing is ready for the great international
collegiate athletic meeting between the
team representing Yale University and the
champion Cambridge University team of
England, which are to be contested on
Manhattan field New York, next Satur-
day. Both teams practically completed
their severe course of training to-day, and
with the exception of light work to keep
in trim the time now on until the games
will be passed quietly. There is little
doubt that Yale men will win easily, as
they seem to have sure thing on every
event. The betting is as high as 3 to in
their favor, with few takers. The English
team has acknowledged that it cannot
hope to win, as il is unable to withstand
the severe climatic conditions. and that
none of the men are in the best OF health.
For the past week, however, they have
INDUCED in secret practice, and 1T is
thought that, contrary to expectations,
they will make a very strong showing.
The Yale team is practically the same
as that which met Oxford University at
Kensington Oval London, last year and
were defeated. The Cambridge team
badly defeated the champion Oxford team
this year, and nearly all the men compos-
ing it are record breakers. The outlook
for close struggle, Notwithstanding the
betting, is very bright. A reception will
be given tomorrow night to the visiting
athletes by representatives of Harvard and
Yale universities.

SAN ANTONIO, TEX, Sept. 30.-It was
learned here this morning that negotia-
tions have been quietly in progress for the
past few days between the Florida Athletic
Club and railroad officials in Mexico look
ing to the pulling-off of the Corbett-Fitz-
simmons fight in that country across the
river from Eagle Pass or at some point be-
low there on the line of the Mexican Inter-
national road in case it was found impossi-
bic to have it at Dallas or in the Indian
Territory.
1t is stated that the Governor of Coahuila,
Mexico, guarantees protection to the fight
ers. President Stuart writes friend here
that he will positively pull the fight off
somewhere on or before October 81 if the
principals are alive and ready to meet each
other.
AUSTIN, TEX, Sept. 30.-There are very
few members of the Legislature in the
city, and it's not probable that a quorum
will be here to- morrow when the special
session begins. From those who have ar
rived, however, it has been learned that
the general sentiment is in favor of the
immediate passage of a law making prize
lighting felony. The Legislature will, it
is said, be in session thirty days, as Gov
ernor Culberson will lay other matters be-
fore it, among them the recommendation
of law making gambling felony.
CORPUS CHRISTI, TEX, Sept. 3d.
Fully 1000 people assembled at the Aran-
sas Pass depot tonight, all eager to get a
glimpse of the big Australian. Fitzsim-
mons was met at the train by committee
of representative men and escorted to the
Constantine Hotel. Fitzsimmons has but
little to say in reference to the fight. Mar
tin Julian, Ernest Roberts, Duncan c.

lion constitute the personnel of the party.
Fitzsimmons will move into his quarters
tomorrow. He is in good condition.

David Fitzgerald SteS the Estate of Hi.
Brother John.


Brother John.
LINCOLN, NEBR., Sept. 30.-An action
for round half-million dollars was com.
menced to-day in the District Court
against the estate of the late John Fitz-
gerald. His brother, David Fitzgerald, is
the plaintiff. The claim was entirely un.
expected. David is the youngest brother
of John Fitzgerald and was educated by
him and has until recent years made his
home with John and his family. AT
present David Fitzgerald is not in the
city, his attorneys filing the suit.
Mr.. Monahan, attorney for the John
Fitzgerald estate, said this evening, re-
ferring to the suit: "The copartn ership
ofiJohn Fitzgerald & Brother was not sue
eessfuI, and every contract taken by them
which was under Dayid's management
proved a financial loss; necessarily, the
loss was always borne by John Fitzgerald.
Plainly speaking, believe this claim is
not worthy of serious consideration.
The suit causes something of sensation
in Lincoln business circles.
