The nomination of Abraham Lin
coin of Illinois by the republican
national convention at Chicago, that
met on May 10th of that year, as the
candidate of that party for the Of
flee of president, was an inspiring
circumstance that evoked the enthu-
siasm of every adherent of that party
in all parts of the country, as much
so in Nebraska as anywhere, notwith-
standing its citizens were debarred
participation in the election on ac-
count of their residence in a ter
ritory.
II will be remembered that the ter
%ritorial governments of Kansas and
Nebraska were provided for and
erected und r the administration Of
Pierce, and of course all the terri
torial officers were democrats; and
to begin with, both territories We're
settled Largely by democrats, but in
1859 the republicans held a convention
at Bellvieu in Sarpy county and nomi-
noted Samuel G. Daily for delegate
TO congress to fill the vacancy oc-
casioned by the death of Judge Fen
ner Ferguson, whose term of office
would not expire until the 4th OF
March. 1861. Daily lived at Peru and
had been u member of the legislature
that met in the fall of 1858. He could
make a pretty good stump speech,
making up in self assertion and per-
sonal push and arrogance what he
lacked in education and genuine abil-
ity. The nomination came to him
much in the same way Bryan got his
nomination for congressman from the
first district in 1890. Nobody thought
the democrats could elect anybody
that year and no serious effort was
made by the old standbys like j.
| Sterling Morton and others, and 1t
easily went to Bryan, but in that
year the prohibition amendment to
the constitution came on to be adopt

about 5000 actually cast oyer 10000
against the amendment, and every
one of the 10000 illegal votes SO cast
was a democratic one, and all for
Boyd for governor and Bryan for con
gress.
In 1859 nobody thought the repub
licans could win, and Daily was cas-
lily nominated on the first ballot, ant

Morton was compelled to become con-
cestant instead of Daily, and the ad-
vantage to that extent was against him
Two other circumstances also stood

absence of their congressman from

make a speech in the house in advo-

This made him more sour than

The great year of 1860 saw Lincoln
elected president and the Union act

olutions could accomplish that OBJ
ject, but there was a mar and a
, people, descendants of the worship
ers of Odin and Thor, to reckon

Daily instituted a contest and proved
these facts. They were laid before
Governor Samuel Black. and although
he had issued a certificate of cleo
ton to Morton, when he became sat
isfied that he was not legally elected
he revoked his former certificate to
Morton. and issued one to Daily. For

appointed by president Lincoln, he

procured a commission in the volun-
teer army of the Union, raised a reg
iment of soldiers, went to the front
and lost his life in the defense of
his country, but who has ever said
anything about rearing a monument t
his memory? Not anybody that
ever heard of. The nan who kept
up a fire in the rear, the chief cop
perhead of the territory, won his
spurs slandering the great president
and his loyal army, and dying is dis
tinguished by people ignorant of the
truth, as though he had in some
signal way earned a monument for
patriotic cervice performed for his
country. 1t is not a very great feat,
of patriotism to hold a civil office in
time of peace, but it is something for
a man to be true to his country even
in private station when traitors were
making wal to destroy it, and Nor
ton was not. These facts are men
toned here that sycophants of all
degree, who delight in chiseling on
brass or stone w%ondrous heralds OF
fame, whether deserved or not, may
be estopped from denying the truth
of history.
Morton was a great man by mar
riage. The Joy family of Michigan
built railroads and became rich and
powerful, and Morton made the hit oil
his life when he hitched himself to
their car and went whizzing through
the world at record-breaking speed

crime was committed malicious
ly; that is, it was not charged to have
been committed With malice. There
were several amused faces in court
when the ground of Daily's motion
came To be known. The court re
marked that that was the first time
he had ever heard it contended that
malice was an essential element of
the crime of rape. 1t was not so at
common law and it was very GER
tain that the statute did not make
it so, and the motion would have to
be oyerruled. 1t would be difficult
to conceive of a more ridiculous prop
o%sition, but it was not at all certain
that Daily was conscious of 1t. He
was nominated for the same office
in 1860, the year | am writing about,
and was opposed by j. Sterling Nor
ton, who then held the office of Sec
rotary of the Territory, an office that
answered to that of u constitutions
al office of Secretary of State.
1t was during that campaign hat |
first saw Mr.. Morton, and | thought
then, as ! did many times afterwards,
that he was the meanest democrat |
ever saw. A republican in his esti-
nation was something more than in
famous, nor was his opinion in that
regard changed or modified during all
the dark days of the Civil war, which
he repeatedly denounced as not only
unconstitutional, on the part of the
Lincoln administration, but every act
of the government in trying to en-
force its authority and maintain the
integrity of the union was also con-
demned by him as unauthorized, bar
barous and cruel. Had he lived in
any loyal state, and talked rs he
did here on the outskirts of civiliza-
ton, he would have found his way to
a military prison in short order. But
here little attention was paid to him
as he was powerless for evil, and COM
paratiyely harmless. There seems a
grim sarcasm in the fact that such
a man should be honored in his death
with a monument by people who love
the memory of Abraham Lincoln, who
was abused in his life and shot to
death in the same spirit that actual
ed the enemies of the nation in de-
nouncing the war to save the union,
both north and south,
The result of that election as
