A Gentleman of the Old School

The passing Of Col. John NJ.
Martin from a public servant to a
private citizen, is worthy of more
than passing notice, from the
fact that the late postmaster Of
Ocala. is a man of more than or
binary attachments and has
served his state in the past with
honor in the legislature and with
great distinction on the field of
battle. He is a gentleman who
possesses a high sense of honor
and his uniform kindly and chiv-
alric courtesy to all, has been
g marked characteristic. AS in
private life, SO in public, and his
term Of office was characterized
by such considerable treatment of
the public, that he was truly
termed the peoples servant.
Honorable and faithful to every
public trust, he retires With the
respect and homage of all, and
that appreciation of duty we'll
done which will be a sweet So
lace to his declining years.
In speeding the passing post
master, we welcome the new in
cumbent, Mr.. HI. G.. Groves and
predict for him a record as a pub
lie servant as bright, successful
and honorable as his business
career has been meritorious.

Military Freight Increment.

Activity on the part OF the government in
relation to military movements might be
better understood If one could examine the
contents of the freight cars which pass
through this city. Movements are not all
confined to organizations OF fighting men by
any means, although these are being carried
through by regiments, companies and squads
almost every day. Guns ammunition and
commissary stores have formed large por-
tion Of the freight traffic of the roads with
western connections during the past six
months, and they are not decreasing Dur
ing the past few days a train load cf guns
was hauled through this city on its way TO
San Francisco, where the weapons were
loaded on transports to be taken TO the
Philippines for the use OF Uncle Sans
benevolent assimilators now in service In
those islands. There is hardly day freight
trains to the coast do not carry stores OF
some kind for the army beyond the Pacific.

Dee's Mandnmus suit.

The aid OF the courts will be invoked
by Ed ]. Dee to assist in landing him in
the position of bookkeeper in the office OF
the county clerk, to which he was appointed
soon after the present county administration
went into power. II will be remembered
that when the results of the last election
worked a transformation in the political
complexion OF the Board OF County Com
missioners it was given out that one of the
first steps Of the ruling majority would be
TO dispense with the services OF a large
number of the men who had been employed
by a republican administration and replace
them with candidates Of the fusion brand.
Dee was one of the men who were conducted
to places at the public crib by the new
administration. But here the board col
lided with a snag. County Clerk Haverly
insisted that, since be was responsible to
the people for the conduct OF his office, he
had the right to say who should be his
employees. Consequently, when the new
bookkeeper reported for duty he was cour-
teously but firmly informed that his serv-
ices were not required. The fusion members
of the board stormed to no purpose The
county clerk stood pat and steadfastly re-
fused to allow their appointee to have ac-
cess to the books of his office The mud
die continued for several days and as
neither side was willing to waive a point it
has rested until this time.
Now Dee has filed an affidavit and notice
with the clerk of the district court, in which
he serves notice on Clerk Haverly that at
10 o'clock Saturday morning he will apply
to Judge Scott for a writ of mandamus to
compel him to recognize him as an en-
ploye Of the office. In his affidavit he states
in detail the circumstances Of his appoint
ment and the subsequent refusal of the
county clerk to recognize him substantially
as they have been exploited in the press

Minor Matters in Cour,

Margaret VI. Gardner has commenced
foreclosure proceedings in the United States
court on a $1,000 mortgage given by John
:. Bilby on lands in Stanton county.
Elizabeth Gands has FLED a motion for a
new trial in the case OF Homer w. John
son against the Woodmen of the World in
which 1t was decided that Miss Gands. as
the fancee of Joseph Morse had no rights
as beneficiary on a fraternal insurance
policy. She alleges that the court erred in
his rulings and that the verdict was con-
trary to the law and the facts.
The Omaha Loan and Trust company has
secured judgments in two foreclosure suits
involving moderate amounts One verdict
is against Cornelius A. Learv for &. SIS %
and the other against Michael Wallenz for
S2,04S.7S. In the latter case the Judgment
is given priority against a mortgage for
$4,000 held by the United States National
bank, but the order OF sale stipulates than
the sale shall be subject to the mortgage
which will remain lien on the property
Judge Powell has taken up the case in
which John $. Caulield sues E. A Benson
and other bondsmen OF ex-Sheriff Coburn
for S975.50 and interest from April. 1883, on
account of an alleged illegal execution,
which, it is asserted was issued by Coburn
while he occupied the sherif's office. A
similar suit was instituted against Mr.
Coburn some time ago, but failing to col
lect, an action was instituted against his
bondsmen.

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS MEET
Matter of Additional Help for County
Attorney is to BE Decided
Next Saturday.

The Board of County Commissioners met
in adjourned session to pass the monthly
appropriation sheets and have a try at the
settlement Of the controversy relative to the
employment Of additional help for the
county attorney. The latter action comes up
on the application of County Attorney
Shields for the appointment of w. H. Gun
solas as detective and special messenger and
Lee Helsley as assistant county attorney.
The matter was considered in executive ses-
sion and decision was postponed until
next Wednesday on account OF the absence
Of Commissioner Harte, who is shooting
holes in the atmosphere as near as may
be to the ducks over Lake Quinnebog.
Aside from the appropriation sheets the
only business transacted in regular session
was to authorize the committee on court
house and jails 10 purchase a supply Of 1899
city directories.

Too Much Cough Medicine"

An cverindulgence in cough medicine"
landed James Shields of South Omaha in the
county jail and resulted in the forfeiture of
the bond on which he had been released
pending his trial for an alleged assault on
James Kennedy. Shields was notified 10 be
in criminal court yesterday afternoon. when
his case was set for trial, and he left South
Omaha early in the day in order TO be on
time. When the case was called, however
he was not TO be found Judge Baker is
sued capias, and Deputy Sheriff Lewis
eventually found Shields in company with
one of the m-st luxuriant "jags" that has
been seen in the cour. house this year He
tried to explain to the court that he ha
merely gone into saloon to get a little
something for his cough and had forgotten
all about his engagement with the state Of
Nebraska. Cough once for me" said Judge
Baker but the response was such a ghastlv
Imitation that it ended the proceedings. The
court promptly declared the bail bond for
feited and committed Shields TO the county
jai! to sober up.

AMONG THE RAILROAD MEN
Operating Ohicials In Omaha Are
Wondering IL the snow Will
Ever Cease.

When men connected with the operating
departments of the local railroads came out
and saw the snow they were about ready
to conclude they would have to battle with
this obstruction to train movements all sum-
mer. While none of the Offices reported
enough snow along the lines 10 interfere
with traffic. the men in charge had views
on the subject of the existing weather which
would melt ice in Alaska II properly pushed.
1t is reported here that the Colorado South
ern has not had train into Leadville since
January 16, and it is said. although no proof
is furnished, that its line would not be
opened before July /. The last snow Is
light as rule, but it means more water to
be guarded against when the spring thaw
begins, If that event has not been stricken
from the calendar OF this year. Indirectly
it is therefore the cause Of additional anx>
iety to railroad managers.

The COW case in which Claus and Chris
Helm have been contesting the ownership
Of bunch Of cattle with Joseph McClen-
neghen has been one OF the most peculiar
legal controversies occurring in the district
court during the present term The evil
dence has occupied two days, and the Jury
has been compelled to decide altogether on
the credibility OF the witnesses produced
by the several litigants. Each side intro
duced dozen witnesses, each of whom
swore positively that the cattle belonged TO
the party by whom he was called into court.
Each witness was positive in his statements
and declared that he could not be mistaken.
On cross-examination, however, some Of Nc
Clenneghen's witnesses became slightly
muddled and the jury brought in a verdict
in favor of the Helm family. They we're
awarded the cattle and cents damages.

Rumored Boyco1t Denied.

There is a report that the sheep men in
northwestern Wyoming are threatening a
boycott on the Elkhorn road, and that they
will drive their stock over to Rawlins ana
ship east over a rival line. No cause
for the trouble is assigned. At the local
offices of the Elkhorn in this city it is said
no information had been received bearing
out the rumor On the contrary a letter
within two days from the company's live
stock agent in that part OF Wyoming reports
the stock in excellent condition and the OUT
look good for heavy shipments when the
time for the movement OF sheep arrives. II
is not believed by the officers OF the road
that there is anything in the rumor of dis
satisfaction.
