Even the glittering nug- gets that are said to abound in that flowery region are not likely to off- set the tribulations that await peo- ple who set out in search of sudden wealth. “ALL we want is to be let alone,” ‘was thememorable motto of Jeff Da- vis, and all we want is be let alone, §s the piteous cry of the Omaha postal corruptionists. All they want is to be let alone in their disgraceful thieving and plundering, and if they could throttle the honest senti- ment within the Republican party, the reign of public thieves would be in the height of its glory. — Now is the time for Nebraska Grangers to demonstrate practically the benevolent and charitable char- acter of their organization. When Louisiana and Mississippi were in- undated by the flood last spring Nebraska Grangers promptly con- tributed to their relief. Whyshould the appeals of the poor homestead- ers in the Republican and Loup valleys go unheeded? There are thousands of Grangers in Nebraska who can readily spare & portion of thelr surplus grain, and we can see no reason why relief should be sought through the slow process of legislation. To add insult to injury the cor- rupt tools and apologists of the postal ring are now circulating reports de- rogatory to the character and capa- city of the postal clerks who were removed from office for Zexposing " public thieves and bribe-takers in the]postal service. The last number of the Lineoln Journal, commenting on the postal trouble, declares: ‘It is also a fact both these men had lung since been reccmmended for dismissal under the rules of the postal service, for carelessness and incompetency, but that in view of the fact that they had demanded this investiga- tiou it wes determined not to act upon such recommendation until the department had been fully ad- vised of *he facts, and passed judg- ment on the charges. We obtain this information from an sauthentic and a disinterested source, and pre- sume that it is reliable.” Now we pronounce these allega- tions as false in every particular. Nobody ever heard about the care- Jessness and incompetency of these men until after Yost's swindling operations in the postal service had been brought to light. If they were careless and incompetent, why Lave they been retained in the service during more than four years? And why did Special Agent Furay and Chief Head Clerk Hill recommend Bye and declare the contrary over their official signatures? | Treasurer, | A WORD WITH REPUBLICANS. It has been the boast of the Re- publican party, in its periodical ap- peals for popular confidence, that it has ever been ready to purge its ranks from corruption. peatedly demonstrated its ability to rise above partizan cousiderations by exposing, denouncing and hurl- ing from power the men who, when elevated to responsible positions, have betrayed their trust by dis- honest and corrupt practices. Just now, when party ties hang loosely upon the limbs of people who value principle above® plunder, it is | more than ever necessary | for honest Republicans to prove | their faith by their acts. Recent disclosures concerning the corrupt management of the Omaha post office are familiar to all. We do not deem it necessary to recapitu- late the facts proved by competent | witnessesunder oath. They reveal | & disgraceful record that stamps one | of the most prominent Repnblican officials in the State with indelible infamy. 1t is immaterial whether the mis- erable whitewasher who pretended | to investigate this case for the Post | Office Department has exhonerated | the culprit. A popular tribunal, | which can neither be influenced by Senatorial favors nor intimidated by political executioners has already | made up a verdict, and the Republi- can party stands impeached through | the action of unworthy members. To cap the climax, the men whose fidelity and unswerving integrity | had led to the exposure of these cor- rupt Republican officials, have been removed from the service without a | single charge against them. This | naprecedented outrage, if sustained by the silent endorsement of the Republican party, would virtualiy proclaim to all the world that hon- | est men cannot accept positions in the postal service, Tt would proclaim the dangervus | doctrine that the Republican party, through its representatives propose to foster and protect public thieves. TUnder these circumstances, and in iew of the fact that the Republican party is about to come before the people for an endorsement at the bal- | Tot-box, we believe it to be theduty of representative Republicans to pro- claim, through their convention in Douglas county, that they do mot endorse these corrupt acts, and fur- thermore that they disapprove of the removal of any honest and ca- pable man from the civil service until after specific charges can be brought and sustained against him, A resolution embracing these | sentiments will be introduced in the Republican Coun- ty Convention Saturday aad it is to be hoped members will bave the nerve to sustain them. We are aware that the apologists and emis- saries of the postal ring are making the most strenuous exertions to de- feat these resolutions. With them the undisturbed possession of plun- der is the essence of Republicanism, and any effort to expose dishonesty is looked upon as treason to the party. But we appeal t to Republicans of Douglas County to beware of the false counsels of these cormorants. There can be no dodging of an is- sue that involvesa confirmation of our boasted readiness and ability to denounce corruption wherever and whenever found. Listen not to the voice of money changers, whose only desire is to serve influential customers. They do not understand the tem- per of the people and the demand of the times. Nothing will strength- en the Republican cause in Doug- Ias county more than a bold decla- ration that, as Republicans, we can- not sympathize with or lend our countenauce to fraud, dishonesty and bribery in public places, Letit once be understood that this is our motto, and hundreds who now waver in their party attachment will rally to our cause with the en- thusiasm that is absolutely essential if we expect to march to victory during the coming compaign. Ir the Mennonites that have seen fit to turn their backs on Ne- braska with a view of permanent settlement in Dakota, had read the following graphic description of farm life in Dakota, they would doubtless have exhibited less en- thusiasm about that blessed region. One years’ experience of a Dakota farmer is summed up thus : “Ibuilt a fine ranche,and planted extensiv had also a large garden intrusted to my care, and plenty to help to work it. I carried up water in barrels from the Mis- souri and irrigated theland. I had the satisfaction of seeiug my crops come up. But no sooner had they got fairly started than the potato-bug made a fearful raid on the young growths. A terrible wind-storm and several extremely cold nights jeoparded the whole crop. An im- mense army of grlsshogpen then came and eat up what the potato- bugs had left; and last, but not least, an_extraordinary hail-storm beat to death the remnant which had survived the potato bug and the grasshopper. To be sure, 1 have some corn left, but if I were God 1 would just give every white man ten days 1o get out of this country, and then I would sink the whole (eltip- tical) region and make a whale- fishery out of it.”” ANN E ree suit against the much married Brigham is like- 1y to cause a general exodus, not only from the harem of the chief apostle of poligamy, but also from the bed and board of many bishops and elders of the Mormon Church. The open admission that he considers the celestial or plural marriage relation as outside of the law has very naturally produced indig- nation and consternation in every polygamous household. It is an open acknowledgment that the first is the only legal wife, whils the | others are mere mistresses or concu- bines. Thisdeclarat'onconfronts the faithfal like a terrible social chasm that must forever separate those who, until now,.have looked upon. their marital relations as sanctioned by religion, law and usage, In Nebraska our party has re- | WYOMING. Its Attractive Climate. Agricultural Advantages and Politics. The Folly of Indian Expeditions. A Godsend for Traders and In- dians % (Senator Harlan's Correspondence In Washing- ton Chronicle.) CHEYENNE, W. T., Aug. 18. It has always been admitted that life on the plains, in mountain ranges and the fastnesses of un- broken forests, excites the human instinets and sensibilities to the greatest acuteness. Buch men are expected to be sagacious, alert, and pedients. ~ Like the sailor on the ships and dangers to which the frontiersman is exposed appear to qualify him to encounter, to endure, or to overcome the difticulties inci- dent to his position. Wyoming Territory, of which Cheyenne is the capital, although as “yet but rsely populated, is inhabited chiefly by the type of men above described. Considerable numbers are turning their attention to graz- ing live-stock, chiefly sheep and cattle. The value of the domestic stock now grazing within a few miles of this young city is estimated in the millions. Several of Uncle Sam’s Territorial officers at this place are setting a good example in this respeet, and have herds num- bering several thousands each. Here, as in Western Nebraska and Colorado, cattle and sheep graze and do well the year through with- out other food or shelter than that which they find for themselves, and stock, horses, and mules require very little additional forage. The most difficult feature of th.s economic problem for a resident of the old States ta solve is how unsta- bled, unsheltered live stock, even if abundantly provided with food, could endure successfully what one would suppose would necesssrily be, | the intense cold of the winters in this Territory, where even the val- leys, before the ascent of the moun- tains is commenced, are six thou- sand feet above the level of the sea; an elevation as great as that occu- pied by the “Tiptop House” on that peak of the White mountains in New Hampshire, so familiar to tour- ists, by the name of “Mount Wash- ington,”” where ths temperatyre compels travelers to wear their win- ter furs in July and August. Val- leys almost absolucely treeless, and consequently ¢xposed, for hundreds of miles, to the unbroken blasts of winter. The old residents, how- ever, explain this phenomena by saying that the atmosphere during the winter months is free from sensi- ble moisture; that the merecury sel- dom descends below zero, and that | during the winter storms of the greatest severity cattle instinctively take shelter in the canons. Itis said that even those driven from the States, and formerly aceustomed to artifielal shelier and care, will, in & few months after their arrival on the plains, by the exercise OF SOME MYSTERIOUS POWER, detect the ny})mch of 3 storm many hours in advance of the slightest appearance of such a dis- turbance, when they may be seen quietly taking up their line of march for the shelter of a friendly ravine, while the sky is still clear and the atmosphere perfectly serene. They are also said to readily learn the art of discovering, in the winter-time, the unburnc grass, and readily un- cover it to appease their appetites for food, although remote from their accustomed Launts, and buried be- neath snow ot considerable death, which occasionally covers the plains; and, like the wild buffalo, instinet- ively adopt effectual means of de- fense against packs of hungry wolves, which, at this sason of the year, sometimes collect in consider- able numbers near to ranches in search of food. When in this fam- ishing and crazed condition, al- though naturally sly and economic of belligerent effort, they will com- bine, pursue, attack, kill, and de- vour at a single repast a full grown cow or buffalo, although they usual- ly seek as prey only the young and more defenseless. To protect them- selves when thus attacked, domestic cattle, as well as herds of buffalo, rapidly form in compact the young and feeble in the center, and the old and more vigorous cows and bullocks on the exterior, FACING OUTWARD, WITH LOWERED HEADS, presenting a cordon of horns as diffi- cult to penetrate by a pack of wolves or an old grizzly bear as solid squares of infantry, bristling with bayonets, by a column of cavalry. The military officers commanding at these ex; pasts in the new Territories relate many incidents illustrating the acquired sagacity of domestic animals. Here even the most stupid animals, after some ex- posure to danger, become alert and watchful. For example. it is attes- ted on undoubted authority that mules at military postsremote from settlements, and those employed to convey the baggage for scouts while on active duty, will detect the ap- proach of Indians, and indicate it by | a peculiar restlessness, well under- stood by the soldiers to be unerring, five or six hours before they come in sight, making it clear that when tirst detected by these most stupid of all beastsof burden the savages are many miles away. Whether the discovery is made by an unsus- pected acuteness of the sense of smell, or the exercise of some fac- ulty sinnlar to an additional sense still unknown to man, like that which guides birds of passage uner- ringly across seas and econtinents, it is of comse impossible to decide. The fact, however, still remains, demonstrating the generous munifi- cence of the Great Author of life even to those which are regarded as His stupidest creatutes, enavling them to anticipate and provide against unusual dangers. WYOMING EMBRACES A MUCH BET- TER COUNTRY than has heretofore been generally supposed. As the Burveyor Gen- eral, Dr. Reed, a veteran in thesub- division of Uncle Sam’s domain, having been Burveyor General of Missouri and Illinois thirty years ago, extends his work in this Terri- tory its value is being continually brought to light. The ortility of the soil is practically exhaustless, but east of the mountans will cer- tainly need s jon to secure suc- cessful grain culture. In the moun- tainous regions timber is sufficiently abundant.” Coal fields of great val- ue have been discovered, with ex- haustless quantities of iron ore, und and in various places the precious metals have also been found in pay- ing quantities ; but the most valua- ble portion of this Territory lies north of the Nortn Platte, and is still in the possession of the Sloux under the f of treaty stipulations. it Wyoming will at no very distant day becume a great State in wealth and popula- tion can no be doubted. In politics it is supposed to be Democratic, notwithstanding the long-enduring, brave and full of ex- | high seas, the roughness and hard- | | | humanizing, clvilizing, and refin- ing influence of woman suffrage, and may return to Congress Hon. Mr. Steel, its present energetic and capable Delegate, though the Re- publicans are not without hope of Cary, a gentleman of unblemished reputation and excellent ability. Just now, asintimated in a for- mer letter, Wyoming Territory is the theatre of an importaat military movement against the Indians,who have committed some depredations on ranchmen and miners. It is embraced in General Ord’s depart- ‘ment, but 1t is under the immediate command of General Reynolds. headquarters at this place—a vet- eran of the recent war, who has well earned the high distinction ac- corded him by his countrymen, and who bears his honors with the modesty which is usually assoclated with true courage and capacity. The magnitude of the disturb- ances by Indians has been greatly overstated. As the tourist ap- proaches their several locations they are generaslly found to have been eo trivial as to have made little im- pression on the minds of the white residents. EVEN GENERAL CUSTER'S MARCH. in the Black Hills, it is believed here, will prove to have been fiuit- less of any well-deZned beneficial results to anybody except the traders aad contractors at the agencies. 1t will prove a blessing to some of them, because the Indians who were -providing for themselves in the lack Hills, on the line of his march, are flying now to the agencies for protection, where they must be fed by the government to prevent their starvation. At Red Cloud Agency, the rendezvous, by estimate, of only about eight thousand Sioux, a de- mand has arisen from this cause fcr food for about double that number. If not supplied their dispersion southward in the track of the buffa- lo will be inevitable, leadin, sible depredations and conflicts with spttlers; when, had they been un- disturbed by the troops, they would have remuined hundreds of miles away, feeding on the fruits of the chase on the hunting grounds ment. On the other hand, if sup- tions estimated for a whole year will be exhausied In a few months, presenting the alternative to Con- gress of providing for large defi tion of thousands of “Government wards.” General Custer’s march was doubtless well intended, and the aonsequeut_intimidation of In. djans may result in ultimate bene- fit, more than sufficiut to compen- | sate for the immediate pecuniary loss. This was probably the con- trolling motive with the War De- partment in ordering this expedi- tion. But it is proving to be a God- send to the traders and Indian con- tractors at some of these sgencies. —— PERSONALITIES. electing their nominee, Hon. J.
