HOXIE, of Colfsx sounty ; — Tae silence of our local contem. pporaries upon the water-works ques- tion is as profound as was Rip Van Winkle's twenty year's snooze. DEAD niggers cast no Republican votes, is the motto of the Louisiana Democracy. Boiled down in the Nebraska Bourbon platform, this mottos condensed into the words, ‘‘Home Rule.” —_— IX order to manipulate the legis- lative, nominations in the interest of his twin brother Morton, Doctor Miller had to borrow Mr. Chandler’s proxy to the late Bourbon County Convention. THAT special favorite of the trav- elling public, the ancient and rock- rooted Omaha Ferry Company, is 'well represented on the Bourbon leg- islative ticket. There is something 1n the wind, evidently. ‘WHEN Doctor Johnson heard the result of the Douglas County Bour- bon Convention, he made an excla- mation that sounded very much like that made by Cambronen at ‘Waterloo. PoLITICALLY speaking, “coming events cast their shadows before.” 1f the peopie of Douglas Couniy elect the Bourbor legislative ticket, Doctor Miller's twin brother will put in an appearance as claimant of Graany Tipton’s Senatorial slippere, Txe Bourbons of Douglas county have nominated what nuay be justly cailed a straight-Bourbon, or rather Bourbon-straight, ticket. Its respec- tability in this respect is unques- ticmed. You might tn;:d a good ways before you could &8s re- spectable a collection of old fogies. STAND BY YOUR COLORS. “He who is not for us is against us,” is'a maxim at all times appli- cable in political as well as in mili- tary waafare—in other words, he who I8 not for the Republican party is virtually agsinst it, and must consequently be classed among iis enemies. Buch is just now the position of the would ke polit- jcal reformers, made up for the most part of designing demagogues who, baving failed to gratify their ambition, seek to ruin where they could mnot rule. Ne- braska has her share of these disappointed spoils hunters. On the one hand the malcontents, styling themselves Peoples’ Inde- pendents, are seeking to create dis- sention among the industrial classes, by professions of hostility to mo- nopoly. On the other hand the impractical fanatics who seck to force prohibition as a cardinal political doctrine, are ral- lying under the Prohibition banner with undisguised intent to aid the Democracy in carrying the State. ‘While there is no immediate or re- mote danger of the success of these hostile factions to precipi- tate defeat upon the Republican ticket in the present canvass, we deem it proper to warn Re- publicans against the allurements of the would-be reformers. What, we pray, have mechanics, laborers and farmers to expect from a coterie of political hacks whose recognized leaders are Harrison Johnson and Credit Mobilier Davis? Can any one point out a single distinctive principle in the political platform ot this mongrel reform party that is not more emphatically proclaimed in the Republican plat- form. Compare those platforms on the most essential live Issue of the day and you will discover that the Republican platform has three specific and distinet planks on the railroad question, while the Inde- pendent platform Las only one plank, and that plank a mere glit- tering generality. On the question of cheap trans- portation, for instance, the Repub- lican platform recommends the con- struction of a double track freight railway from the Missouri river to the Aulantic seaboard. The Inde- pendents are entirely silent on that point. Other planks covering impor- NEBRASKA SKETCHES. Peru and the Normal School. (Special Correspondence of the BEz.) PERU, NEMAHA Co., NEB. } September 25th; 1874. Before coming here we Visited | Nemaha City, and in regard to that place we can say that the surround- | ings arebeautiful and the situation is | fine. There is only one drawbaci | which is the scarcity of inhabitants. The City consists of one store, a | blacksmith-shop, and a hotel ‘We stopped here one night as the guest of Mr. Johnson, who keeps the hotel, and makes a clever land- lord. In the morning we demol- ished half a dozen boiled eggs and a pound of ham, and then started for Peru. Our route lay over the prai- rie back of the bluffs, and for many miles we did not see any thing that looked like corn as we have been accustomed to seeit. The drouth has nearly destroyed the crop. I will venture to assert that corn wont average ten bushels to the acre in Nemaha County. The grass, too, was short and but little hay has been made, still this is one of the finest farming coun- tries in the world, and they tell you big stories in regard to the yield of | grain in other years. Fruit is fasi becoming a leading productof this region, and this year's yield is ahead of anything hereto- fore known. Peaches and grapes are 8o plentiful that they have but a trifing market value, the supply far exceeding the demand. I have seen good peaches sold in the streets of brownville for twenty-five cents per bushel. The Nemaha county peach crop is estimated at twenty- five to fifty thousand bushels, Peruisin the north part of Ne- maha county, and on the banks ot the Missouri river. The town is more beautifully located than any we have seen in Nebraska. Its business houses are built in a valley, aboye which rises a huudred hills crowned by neat, home-like dwell- ing houses; buttowering high above all’ stands’ the pride of Peru, the Normal School. The building is elegant and substautial iu appear- ce. Prof. W. E. Wilson isnow acting principal, and is assisted by Prof, H. H. Nicholson and a competent corps of teachers. The Professors very kindly and courteously made us welcome, and turnished all the information_possi- blein regard to the school. We at- tended the commencement exerci- tant issues of the day are entirely ig- nored by the Independents. Now, while there are doubtless many honest and well-meaning people within the raunks of this organiza- tion, we claim, and we defy contra- diction, that the or.ginators and leaders of this movement were cor- rupt, broken-do wn and disappointed political hacks who, having long since lost the confidence of existing political organizations, are deter- mined to have a new deal. In Deuglas county. and in several other localities, the Independents are mostly made up of members of the defunct Ko-op organization who are thus seeking to perpetuate their dark lantern order poiitically. ‘The motives that impelled John- son, Davis & Co. to organize the In- dependent movement have also im- pelled Maxfield, Church, Slaughter & Co. to organize their prohibition crusade. These extremely moral reformers were hankeringafter office and when they discovered that they had failed to draw, they determined to submerge the Republican psrty with their water spout. Anything to beat the Republican party is now their watchword, and they avow their determination to fill the State offices and legislature with Boorbon straights. Against these political guerrillas the Republican party is now march- ing, under tried and trusty leaders, confident that the men who have borne the Republican banner yicte- riously through so many hard fought political conflicts will again rally under toe old colors. From every quarter comes the cheering news that all the combinations to restore the Nebraska Democracy into pow- er are destined to fail ignominious- ly. — WHATEVER may have been the motive of the Omaha Republican in sending a special envoy to Inves- tigate tl:e condition of the Pawnees, there is no doubt that the volumi- nous reports published by that sheet concerning the Pawnees, are grosly exaggerated. Agent Burgess, who, as far as we can learn, enjoys the reputation of being an honest man, writes the following letter to contradict these sensational fabrications : GrNoa, NEB., 9, 21, 1874, N. W.WELLS—Respected Friend: Yours of this date respecting the condition of the ludians is at hand. I have only time 10 say before the mail, that the present destitute con dition of the Pawnees mainly indu- ced by the raid of the grasshoppers upon their crops, has been the sub- ject of an _earnest correspondence with the department far the last two weeks, and 1 have done every- thing in_my power to arouse atten- tion and awake the action of the government. The grave chargesand reflections upon the Agent and others in recent letters, to the Omaha Republican, are so palba- bly misrepresented or so grossly fs that all I can do wnile in offic- ial on is to l.;k all fair-minded people to suspend judgment until I can make aclear ‘explanation, and skow the animus of all this sensa- tional raid upon the policy of the government and their agents where said parties can find an imaginary pretext to forestall public opinion by their malicious misrepresentations, Respectfully your friend. 'W. Buraass, Agent. — CABLE advices from Spain inti- mate that President Serrano has de- termined to take the field in person against the Carlist invaders. Ser- rano is evidently tired of the imbe- cility of the numerous commanders, who have in succession vainly en- deavored to organize victory for the armies of the Republic. — THE ancient and rock-rooted old fogies of Council Bluffs are deter- mined to build a Chinese wall on ses in the chapel land heard sever- al of the more advanced classes re- cite Although Professor Wilson is a very young man to be at the head of 50 extensive an institution, yet he is evidently master of the situation, and, we believe, that few, if any, can ‘surpass him in winning the con- fidence and affection of his students, and inspiring them with his own energy and enthusiasm. There are now 185 students in attendavce,and more are coming in all the time. This is a large increase over last year at this time, and_this, too, in spite of the failure of the crops, which has undoubtedly prevented many who intended coming. Had it not been for this it is hardly to be questioned that the school would have been filled to the fullest extent of itscapacity. The students show an unusual degree of interest in their work, and are as talented, en- ergetic and faithful a collection of students as we have seen anywhere. They are working hard to fit them- selves to teach, and they certainly deserve to be encouraged and assis- ted, and we know of no way in which the State can better provide for the interests of its future than by affording the students at the Normal School the very best of fa- cilities for acquiring a thorough practical education. This leads us to notice the sad con- dition of the school in reference to libraries, apparatus, ete. ‘We were surprised to see no libra, ry except some Congressional Globe’s Patent Office Reports, etc., uo philosophical apparatus except a few simple pieces the Professor of that department had in some way constructed, and but a small eollec- tion of minerals, petrifications, and a few common shells, to be called & cabinet. The want of these ““tools” 1s keen- ly felt by the faculty and the stu- dents, and is to be deeply lamented. The State could well afford to sup- ply all the school demands in this direction, and it should be done by the next legislature, for nowhere could it invest money in educational interests for which it would receive quicker returns. Peru is noted for the enterprise of its business men. Mr. J. P. Bur- dick is one of thelargest dealers and keeps in his store an extensive as- sortment of goods. Here you can buy a skein of thread or a cable rope, a baby buggy or a threshing machine. Mr. L. 8. Prouty has a tin and stove store; he also has a good stock of hardware, woodenware, ag- ricultural implements, and the fa- mous Harrison wagon. Mr. J. L. Fort deal~ principally in groceries, but he also sells books and_ station- ery and repairs clocks and watches. Mr. W. C. Cuming keeps a fruit and confectionery store, and we can «ay from actual knowledge that his cigars and oysters are first-class. He also keeps a barber shop. Our landlord, Mr. Gaede, sets a good table and gives his customers a neat room and soft bed. He also keeps a livery stable. Peru would undoubtedly become a large town if it had any rallroad communication, but without that, comparatively few peogl:. will ever know the magnificent beauty of the rcenery surrounding this lovely vil- lage of the hills.

The District Fair—Indusirfal Display—The Races—Obit- uarv, Eto. (Correspondent of the BEE.) LINcuLx, Sept. 26. Eorror BER: The District Fair, of which we have heard and read so mueh, is over, and a short review of what was done may be of some interest. It has been evident for some time the fair, and if we mistake not, that which some of the leading officals were most interested in, would be the races. Tuesday, the opening day, noth- ing of any interest transpired, and ‘Wednesday was but little better, both being opening days, and uot very flattering ones at that. The entries were not extensive, but what few were made, consisting mostly of vegetables and eatables were very creditable. They had some excei- lent squashes, beets, bread, biscuit, ete.; and with the exception of a small display by Prof. Thompson, of the University, cereals were at a discount. Floral Hall presented no real attractions. The fair, so far as a fair display of the pro- ductsof the district are concerned, was a ridiculous failure, and, to be honest, we do not think it would have done credit to Lancaster coun- ty alone. Thursday the attendance was somewhat larger than the preceding day, the inducements being an ad- dress by Dr. J. N. Converse, and the commencement of the races Dr. Converse’s address was charac- teristic of its author, a plain, practi- caltalk. First, he called attention to the vast area of land enclosed within the borders of the State; of its pre-eminent fitness foragricultu- ral purposes, and its invigorating, healthy climate; the excellence and progress of our school system was reviewed and eulogized, and the unparalelled progress of our State in acquiring wealth and influence ably demonstrated. He then dwelt some length upon the rapidity with which railroads had heretofore been cons structed throughout the State; also of the necessity and benificence of thesame. He criticised that legisla- tion which grasps with too strong a hand, the money of capitalists invested in railways, and urged the people to consider carefully what was for their best interests in the premises. He believed that cheap transportation could only come from competition between railroads. He closed with the declaration that capital and labor properly directed, were what the people wanted. All nowleged that the address was :pu- and in many points instruc- ive. In the afternoon a pacing race was the interesting feature. The contest was between_ “Duch,” a horse owned by Judge Kinney, and “Pelican,” owned by Mr. Bordeno, of Lincoln. “Duieh” came out ahead. Friday, the fourth and last day, was devoted principally to racing. That race. too, narrowed down to a horse from Pawnee county, “David horses. The Pawnce reformer came out ahead, A second race, free to all, was won by oue of Kinney's horses. As horses from Kansas and Mis- souri were here, not knowing that horses outside the district were ex- cluded, the citizens and officers of the society raised a purse of $200, for which there will be a contest to- day. It is thought to-day's races will be the most interesting of any that has yet taken place. The fair, which was, perhaps, partly due to the misfortunes which have lately been visited 8o heavily upon por- tloas of our State, could not be called a great success. The horse racing was very creditablog In conclusion, it is the humble opinion of your cor: respondent that some of the officials ere more deeply interested in the races than in the exhibition. ‘the lawyers of the city are now holdinga meeting to consider what steps shall be taken in the way of paying their respects to the memory of A. M. McCandlass, one of their number who died yesterday, and we understand have “appointed a com- miittee on resolutions and to make Decessary arrangements. We are not informed as to when the funeral will take place. Much sorrow is manifested over the untimely death of him whom all thought would be good for many years.
