' After his present decidedly trying ex- periences it may be taken for granted that Mr. James E. Boyd, of Omaha ap- preciates as he never did before the value and advantages of American citi- zenship, and in the midst of such ap- preciation he may be sure that he is in the company of the good people of Ne- braska generally. Mr. Boyd has been a prominent, re- spected and influential citizen of Oma- ha for many years, and throughout the . state, wherever known, he is highly es- teemed. He has amassed a. comfort-, able fortune in Omaha and has contrib- uted not a little to the prosperity of that marvelous city. The fact that he was not technically an American citi- zeii was lost sight of both by himself and by his friends. The loose charac. ter of the laws concerning the fran- chise in Nebraska, as in other Western States, allows aliens to vote very soon after their arrival, upon the smallest evidence of their intention to become American citizens. Indeed, there is reason to believe that the desire to vote itself is sometimes taken as evidence of a declaration of intention to become a citizen. It was on this account, doubtless, that Mr. Boyd Was allowed to hold the ofiice of. Mayor of Omaha for several terms without question. The Governorship, however,is anoth- er matter, and we presume no one will denv that the Governor of one of the States of the Union ought certainly to be, both technically and practically, a citizen of the United States. The case of Mr. Boyd is interesting in morethan one aspect, and. suggests various lines of thought. In the first place, it makes clear the duty of every man who intends to be a citizen to de- clare his intention and establish his le- gal rights. In the second place, it em- phasizes the necessity for a more care- ful scrutiny of the credentials of voters and candidates, and should tend to the adoption by States like Nebraska of le- gal provisions requiring voters to be really citizens. American citizenship is not a thing tobe lightly esteemed, and its acquire- ment by aliens shoull not only be con- sidered a high privilege and. honor but should be hedged about with every reasonable precaution. The lesson of the Mafia outbreak in New Orleans and the predicament of Mr. Boyd together afford a first-class object lesson. It:will be remembered that Governor Thayer was not a candidate for re- election last November, but in the ab- sence of any legally elected governor— or at least until it is judicially deter- mined that a governor was legally elected—it was, and is, his duty to hold the office, just as it seems to be Govern- or Biilkeley’s duty to retain his office until the questions growing out of the last election can be satisfactorily, legally and permanently settled. Mr. Powers,_, the Farmers’ Alliance candi- date, who received last November 70,- 187 votes to Mr. Boyd’s 71,331, will doubtless make an efl'ort now to estab- lish a claim to the governorship. Until he does establish it, or until the power of the courts shall be invoked to declare another governor chosen, Mr. Thnycr’s tLtle to his seat should be con- sidered sound by every citizen who is willing to step out of the shadows of a blindly foolish partisanship. Harvard's Challenge to Yale. BOSTON, May 9.—The Harvard Baseball association has replied to the note sent them by the Yale Athletic management, in which the latter declared the Yale- Harvard ball games off for the ensuing year. After regretting Yale’s act, Harvard says: “So far as your reference to our re- lations to Princeton is concerned, we can only say that our agreement was made under awritten condition that the pro- ceedings should be submitted to the ap. proval of the respective Princeton-Har- vard university authorities. Furthermore, we are unable to realize Why, in the ar- rangement of a Yale-Harvard series, there should be more justice iii your stipulation that Harvard should play with Princeton than there would be in our possible de- mand that Yale should not play with Princeton.” Proposing to drOp the disputed fifth game, Harvard challenges Yale to play four games, two in New Haven and two in Cambridge, the games in New Ha. ven to be played May 16 and June 23, and those in Cambridge on May 30 and June 18, or on any other dates under the condi- tions governing corresponding Yale-Har- vard games in 1890. ~ - A French Family Brutally Treated. PORTLAND, Me., May 9.—An Argus spec- ial from Topsham, Me. ,tells of abrutal out- rage perpetrated upon a French family re- siding in that town by a gang of masked men, who wrecked the windows with stones and did other damage. One of the inmates was a woman in delicate condition, who was struck in the breast with a stone, causing the death of the child. The ruf- fians are believed to be young men belong- ing to the best families in the vicinity. They have fled. Says Peace Prevails in Costa. Rica. NEW YORK, May 9.—Mr. Charles R.

Deafness Can’t Be Cured Bylocal applications, .as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear; :There is only one way to cure deafness, . and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con- ditiOn of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,|and. when it-is'entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing more than an inflamed con- dition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for an case of Deafness (caused .by catarrli that we cannot cure by taking Hall’s atarrh Cure. Send for Circu- lars, free. . F. J. CHENEY, Toledo, 0.
