My father said that as archbishop he

that he was there ns much as possible,
as he preferred the country to the

Edward nosewater of the Omaha Bee
and the fusion judges of the supreme
court have been having an interesting
interview. 1t appears that Mr.. Rose
water will yet convince their honors
that he has no contempt for them. but
that he has some doubts about the pro-
priety of having them decide their own
cases. 1t at present appears that the
censorship of Otis is not to be compared
to the Nebraska supreme court when it
comes to supprsssing opinions.

The Public md Opera.

There is general opinion that the

that the general public may consider
itself highly privileged to be admitted
