KOSEWATER, Pablisher THE next constitution of Nebras- Kka should provide strong safeguards against the abuse of the pardoning power. e GENERAL BANKS is determined to try his popularity once more as a Liberal - Democratic-what-is-it-can- didate for Congress. 1fheis beaten this time he will become a political dead duck, whose resurrection will require the interposition of a mira- cle. THE bottom appears to have en- tirely fallen out of the Bourbonsand Orleanists in France, In the recent French elections the struggle for supremacy was almost entirely con- fined between the Republicans and Bonapartists. The out-come shows these parties to be very evenly bal- anced. ACCORRDIAG to the New York Tvibune, “the revort of the commis- sion appointed to examine the Union Pacific Raflroad is very favorable. Itstates that the company hasspent on construction and equipment $2,200,000 more than the 1,350,000 which Becretary Cox’s committee of eminent citizens regarded as a needed expenditure.” —_— Gex. LoNGSTREET, who by the way, is just now one of the best hated men In the South, made & speech recently in which he made the following declarations touching his position: “I suppose I am pretty cordially bated by a certain prosertp- tive class of Southerners, but they cannot be helped. Men can’t all think alike, and the tronble with the Southern people always has been that they wont tolerste any difference of opinion. If God Al- mighty had intended all men to think just alike, He might as well have made but one man. Ihave decided and acted as T thought duty required, and other men are at lib- erty to do the same. My opinion is that the only true solution for Southern troubles is for the people to accept cordially and in good faith all the results of the war, including the reconstruction 1neasnres, the acts of Congress, negro suftrage, &e., and live up to them like men. 1f they would do this, and encourage Northern immigratios, and treat all men fairly, whites and blacks, the troubles would soon be over, and in less than five years the South ‘would be in the enjoyment of great- er prosperity than ever bgtore.” HOME RULE. ‘Nebraska has nod her election and therefore our commiZhts upon purely political topics cannot b iiis- construed into mere campaign bun- comb. Itis now and always has been our aim to treat political issues with that Independence and impar- tiality which becomes a fearless and unbiased journal. One of the principal issues upon which the Democracy expect to ob- tain control of the National Gov- ernment js what their organs fa- cetiously designate as “Home Rule.” Now, home rule in Jreland means the right of the peopie to logal self- government, while home rule as jn- terpreted by Democrats means the right of one race to oppress and sub- Jjugate the other. The ex-rebel merchants of Shreve- port have just furnished the country a practieal definition of home rule. Emboldened by the recent Bourbon victories in the Northwest, they have deliberately entered into a com- pact by which their negro employes should be forced to choose between starvation and voting the White League ticket. In other words, they have issued an order that ev- ery colored laborer or mechanic who would dare to vote the Republican ticket,should,be dismissed by his em- ployers. And this cruel mockery, this deliberate suppression of honest political conviction is the boasted home rule of which Bourbon organs prate with such boundless enthusi- asm. Supposing the merchants or manufacturers of Omaba, Chicago or New Yorkshould organize a com- bination to direct and control the votesof their employes in favor of or against any party, by threatening them with & loss of employment and its disastrous consequences? ‘Would not such a combination be followed by universal indignation and a spontaneous revoltof the in- dustrial classes? Would not home rule thus defined become the most odious ter: 10 every “liverty-lov- ing American citizen possessed of manhood gud self-respect, ffice was called upon to print those which were finally used. In this campaign Hon. Lorenzo Crounse was assessed $150 by the Republican Central Committee to go towards paying the legitimate ex- penses of a campaign, and he left & check with friend Rosewater, one of the committee, der of Joel T. Gi ayable to the or- flin, another com- mitteeman. The two latter arrang- ed that Rosewater should retain $50 as back pay for those worthless tick- ets, and etcetra, and pay the $100 over to the Dovglas County Repub- | lican Committee. We never got our pay for the tickets which were used, and Rose- water got his pay from Judge Crounse for those which were not used because Judge Crounse's name was left out. This explains why £0me people are anxious to_be com.- mitteemen, and why we did not our honest dues. We cannot play the grab game,— Republican. For downright, deliberate and ha- bitual lying, commend us to the rock-rooted fossil that has by some inscrutable Providence been clothed with the power to mismanage the mammoth collapsed. Never in our journalistic experienpe have we heard of a more striking instance of human hoggishness than was dis- played by this breederof rival gews- papers in eonnection with the mat- ter which he has taken such pains to misrepresent. The facts in the gase are substan- tially as follows: Two years ago the Republican Btate Central Com- mitte awarded the contraet of ticket printing to three newspapers, viz: Republican and BEE of Omaha, and the Nebraska City Press. Each pa- per was to furnish the tickets for one judicial district, thus: The Press was direoted to print those of the first Judiclal district, the Republican those of the second, and the BEB those of the third judicial district. It appears there Was some misun- derstanding touching the new act of Congress governing the election of Congressmen, and the first in- stalment of tickets printed at the BEE offige were printed without the name ot Lorenszo Crounse, on the supposition that a separate ballot and separate batlot boxes were to be used for the Congressional ballots. ‘When the mistake was discovered it was promptly rectified. The misprinted tickets were de- stroyed before 8 single ticket had gona out of the officé. Meantime, an officious {ntermedler, who acts as private secretary to Senator Hitehcock, but had no authority whatever in this matter, requested Balcombe to print the tickets for which the Bee had a contract. Upon learning this fact and before the tickets order- ed by this impudent Intermed- dler had been printedjwe made a personal appeal to Balcombe not to interfere with our contract. Trye to his hoggish nature, this gifted pat- ronage-grabber, instead of comply- ing with our request, determined to swindle us out of our legitimate contract. Thus it happened that two setts of tickets were printed for the third Judicial distsjet. Those forwarded by the Republican wers, however, not put into use, simply because the greedy manager had omitted the proper legislative and county offi- cers—while the tickets furnished by the BEE were correct in every par- ticular. ‘When the claims of the respective printers were brought before the committee, it was discovered that Balcombe had gobbled several hun- dred dollars for printing the celebra- ed Fyrnas-Lett c'reulars, without authonty from the committee, for which he had succeeded in drawing pay under misrepresentation. Fur- thermore, his bogus ticket bill for the third judleial district, was pro- nounced a traud—while the bill of the BEE was approved. And now comes the sequel of what Balcombe 1s pleased to term a double joke. Balcombe's flank movement on the committee fund forced the com- mittee to issue a due bill to the BEe which was held for over two years, and fipally redeemed by Mr. Grif- fin without jyterest. There are still some $80 due the B from the old committee, and we shall consider ourselves extremely lucky If we ever recover it. In conclusion, we would advise the mammoth missmanager to send his bill to Adams Yost & Co. They ordered the job, and they ought to pay for it. If they do, the ouble Joke will be complete. — TuE eyes of America, aye, even the eyes of the whole givilized world are just now rivited upon a single spot on the great American conti- nent; a spot that will henceforth become indissolubly linked in the world’s piogress. There near the limpid banks of the Ohio, in the city of Louisville are gathered the men of ranscend- ent genius who have determined to remove the National Capital from its unsightly and corruption breed- ing location on the Potomac, to the pure, grasshopper breeding atmos- phere of the great plains. Nebras- ka, weare pleased to note, is fitly represented by Moses Sydenham, who may be recognized even at this distance, head and shoulders sbove the other giants who have taken upon themselves that hercu- lean task. Moses has lived in the wilderness, if not forty years, at least long enough to know that Cen- toria, Nebraska, is just the place where the nation’s solons of the future will distill their wisdom. —— IF, as is slleged by the Oniaha Herald, Warden Woodhurst con- nived at the eseape of the pardoned conviet Webber, notwithstanding copies of pending indictments, and orders for his surrender to the Dodge county authorities had been left 1n his hands, the conduct of the War- den was bighly reprehensible,” NEBRASKA 5} TCHES. (Correspondenceiof the BxE.) PAWNEE CIzV, NEB. October 18, '74. } Pawnee City, with its quietsettled | air, and its substantial stone houses and pavements, bring to the mind the old New England towss, which although it has a population of near- 1y one thousand, there is not a sa- loon in the place, while on the other hand the churches and schools are the prideof the town. The surrounding country is very much like all the rest of southeast- ern Nebraska, gentle, undulating prairie, diversified with well-wood- ed valleys,through which flow rapid streams. The soll is of the richest deserip- tion, and although the grasshoppers and 'drouth have destroyed nearly all the farm products, excepting wheatand fruit, yet the farmers are by no means discouraged, for in past years vegetation has_ flourished here with an almost tropical luxuri- ance. In the old settled counties no one thinks of leaving. It is only the new comers in the border coun- ties who are growing faint-hearted over the warm reception the grass- hoppers have given them, but with the genercus assistance which their kind-hearted nelghbors of the river counties are now extending to them all will becared for this winter who will need it, and next year they may get as fine a crop as ever glad- dened the heart of the honest, hard- working farmer. Some of the best cultivated farms in Nebraska are in Pawnee eounty, of which Pawnee City is the county seat and business center. Nearly all branches of trade are represen- ted here, and the following business houses are worthy of special notice. Mr. G. A. J. Moss has a large stone bullding on the northwest corner of Washington street and Broadway. He keeps in stock dry goods, groceries, boots and shoes and everything else which is gene- rally needed. J. R. Ervin, north of public square, has an immense stock of all kinds of goods and does a propor- tlonate business, D. & J. Hazels, 55 Broadway, also keep a general store and havea large and increasing trade. Mr. James Parish does a thriving business in the grocery line. Mr. Wm. Jacobs also sells a large amount of groceries, besides attend- ing to his duties as postmaster. G. L. Nichols, M. D., keeps a first- class drug store and also practices his profession, The hardware business is repre- sented by the firm of E. and J. Deur. They also keep on hand an extensive assortment of stoves and tinware. All the latest “agonies” are fur- nished the ladies by Miss Lizzie B. Stewart, at her neat, well-stocked millinery sud fancy goods empori- um. Mr. Howard Ellis showed us some very good specimens of photog- raphy, and we can say that as & countenance eounterfeiter he is Mr. J. L. Turner is a watchmaker and jeweler, and enjoys the reputa- tion of being & first-class workman. His stock of goods is well assorted and includes everything imaginable in the way of fashionable orna- ments, clocks, watches, &e. Mrs. Plummer keeps a very neat little store, which is well stocked with groceries, confectionery, &e. Tart & Wills have the best stock of saddles, harness, &e., to be found in the country. Their work isgood, and speaks for itself. Mr. C. H. Curtis, opposite the post office, has the only bakery and restaurant in town, and will have a cozy little oyster parlor fixed up for lovers of bivalves. Mr. Jacob Weber has a first-class cigar manufactory, and is turning out large quantities of the fragrant weed in that shape which smokers like best. ‘We have on several occasions had our chin seraped by Wm. A. Miller, the tonsorial artist of Pawnee City. He does it skilfully and scientifi- cally. Mr. Jacob Fulton has a fine as- sortmen of furniture, and does busi- ness in accordance with the rule of quick sales and small profits. Mason & Goodale have two large well-fitted up shops, where they carry on the blacksmithing and wagon-making] business. We no- ticed 8 long legged mulein the shop which some sanguinary individual had brought there to be shod, We walted around that shop for an hour in hopes of getting a first-class sen- sational item. We have often read ot the graceful ease with which mules were wont to demolish fool- hardy blacksmiths, and as this one looked particularly vicious, we waited impatiently for the coming denouement, but the mule was shod and, alas for us, the man who done it never got a scratch. We have lost confidence in mules. The ani- mal looks ambitious. Had he one spark of the true Amerlcan spirit, he would never aliowed the time to pass {dly by when a reporter, pencil in nnnd’,' was standing- by ready to make him the immortal hero of a newspaper article. Mr. J. D. Galligher keeps a good blacksmith shop and turns off a large quantity of work. Mr. John Porter has a boot and shoe manufactory on the west side of the Public Square, and he knows how to build a leather cornerib. Mr. J. F. Kinney takes the front rank in bis profession (the law) and it 18 said that he thoroughly under- stands the whole ten points. Mr. J. R. Grice {5 also a rising young lawyer. Dr. P. is a physician and surgeon of long experience and acknowl- edged ability, but unfortunately for him the climate is too healthy, and it is only oceasionally that some lu- natic dreams he is sick. Pawnee City has a neat well edi- ted paper (the Republican) which recelves that appreciation and pat- ronage winch is only bestow live, spirited journals. Mr. A. E. Haasler, the editor, has our thanks for courteous favors. A kind word for our worthy land- Tord is particularly his due, for a more whole-souled, obliging gentle- man than Mr. sbbott is seldom found; and, gentle reaaer, if you should ever stray away off down to Pawnee City remember this, that the Farmers’ Home is a house where you will find a bounteous table, spacious rooms, luxurious beds and all the comforts of a well order- ed home; and then when you are ready to settle your Lill you will be astonished at the absolutely trifling amount which you are to pay. Pawnee City Is eight miles south of Table Rock, and is connected with it by a stage line, owned by Mr. Sullivan, who also has the best livery stable in town. To Messrs. Bullivan and C. C. Roberts our thanks are due for many kind fa- vors. Mr. James H. Bray isa grain dealer and general speculator, and asan energetic business man has few equals. Mr. Bray made a con- tract, a year or two ago, to deliver several thousand bushels of wheat in a given length of time (which has it resembles in many respeets; for | not yet expired.) The price to be paid for the wheat was one dollar r bushel. Mr. Bray is now filling Bt cantrast (Market price of wheat sixty cents per bushel.) The man whogetsthe wheat wantsa part- ner, and is willing to give a half in- ' terest, or even more, in the profits | to be derived from that wheat. Mr."D. C. Stratton keeps a large stock of groceries, queensware, &c., and is doing an_extensive business. M. Stratton hasbeen shipping every winter, large quantities of game to the Omaha market, but he has| found that it costs him just about as much to get the goods to Omaha as toChicago. The A. &N. R. R. dis- criminate against Omaha, and in favor of St. Joseph, and makes no direct connection with Omaha roads, and right here we will say a few words in regard_to that propos- ed branch of the Trunk railroad. Some of the advantages to be deriv- ed from it were mentioned in our Humboldt letter, but the printer who set up the type had probably been up late with his girl the night before, and consequently got the ar- ticle rather mixed up. That Hum- boldt letter bad, by actual count, just twenty-seven typographical errors. make mistakes enough without any assistance. The great trouble, how- ever, was that the propose1 railroad was made to run from Kansas City via Humboldt to Brownville or Ne~ braska City. Now, what will ple think of a proposition to build a road in the shape of a rainbow ? We will insist on having eithe~ an apol- ogy from that typo, or an increase in salary. A raliwad running from Pawnee City (not Kansas City) to Brown- ville, Nebraska City, or Platts- mouth is what Omaha needs. Take a glance at the map, and you will see the proposed line will run through a country which {s toa far from the trunk ronk to patronize it, and consequently it will jn future, as in the past, trasie with St. Joe, with which it has direct connection Pawnee City 13 just elghty mile from 8t, Joe, and when this feeder is bulltit will be not more than cighty miles to Omaha by rail. Somebody told e the distance that a man had to travel at present to reach Omaha by rail, but I forget what it was exactly—somewhere near three hundred or three thou- sandmiles. This country 1s thick- lysettled, and its trade is immense and steadily increasing. South- eastern: Nebraska Is the wealthiest portion of the State, and Omaha will belackingIn enterprise if she lets other towns, with inferior advan- tages, monopolize the patronage of this part of the country. Thirty-elght miles of railrcad will connect Pawnee City with Brown- ville and the trunk road, and not over sixty would be required if Plattsmouth were fixed upon for the Junction. Ample assistance will be given by townsand counties along the route; General Remick, of Paw- nee City, offers to build one mile of the road, and make a presentof it to any company that will build the rest. Omaha isjustly proud of her railroads, but if she would be a great cfty she must gxtend her arms stil] farther, and gather in commerge from every availablesourge, The election passed off very quiet- ly,and there was so little interest manifested that even the judgesand clerks of election had no idea the next morning what majorities were given for anybody, and'so we aver- aged the thing and called it in our dispatch one hundred majority for the Republican party. The flower fadeth and the grass withereth, but the glory of the Re- publican party endureth forever. RANGER. — HONEY FOR THE LADIES. Buff and gray boots made of lin- en are all the rage with the Paris Indies. The San Francisco Hoodlum says, “Oh, chaw me hair ! when he meetsa girl on the street with it frizzled. A Terro Haute, Indians, girl makes nine feet at a standing jump. She is to jump for a wager at the next State Fair. Why didshe turn_her back on you, young man? Innocent child ! She wished to make an exhibition of her new overskirt. When you see a lady_coming out of a shoe store with “picked nines” you needn’t suppose she has gone into the base-ball business, The daughter of General Sherman will begin her career asa housekeep- er with the outfit-of “twenty-three dozen of silver spoons,’” A young lady of Sedgwick coun- ty, Kansas, advertises that she will give $200 for a young man who will love her in a kind and gentle man- ner. A Muscatine lady, is out with a challenge of $30 to ride, in a saddie or hareback, against any of the young ladies who rode against her at the recent fair there. A soclety paper asserts that American ladies are getting in the habit of sleeping in their corsets to keep their figues good. Those American Iadies will soon sleep in the valley. An editorial notice of a woman's grocery store reads as follows: “Her tomatoesare as red as her own cheeks ; her indigo is as blue as her own eyes, and her pepper is as Lot as herown temper.” Upon the marriage of one of her companions, a littlegir] about elev- en years of age. of the same school, said to herpa: “Why, don’t you think Ameila ismarried, and hasn't gone through fractions yet.! It remained for a Navy-yard man to develop originality in & love af- fiir.
