THE Chicago Zribune says Mr. Pinchback bas gone over to the Democracy to secure the Unmited States senatorship, supposed to have been pledged bim 1t he would lend bis talents to the reorganiza- tion of that disrupted party. —_— KveRY vote, whether by Demo crat or Republican, for Senator Hiteheock, is an endorsement of official bribery, back pay thelt and “West Point cadetship sales. Every legislator should therefore consider, before casting his vote for Senator, whether be wishes to be placed upon record as an endorser of these rimes and official misdemeanors. ——— Tar wheresboutsof Bennett sceme to be enshrouded 1n mystery.

He is reported as reti- cent on the subjeet, fu.l considera- tion of which was postponed be- cavse of the absence of Mr. Smith, has & proposition leading t.ward the urming of the delegates with prip-guns, Hox. THoMAS WOLFE, the pres- ent member of the Nebraska Legis- Iature from Seward coucty, is re- celving commendable notices from the State press. Mr. Wolfe was one of Omaba's early residents. He learned the printer's trade in this city, and served as foreman in sev- eral of the offices at various times. He was superintendent of the Ber printing establishment for several years, and was one of the most effi- cient and ‘thorongh mechanics n our employ. Mr. Wolfe wus an ac- tive member of the Omaha Literary and Debating Boclety in 1670; his practice and application will now become utilized, As Reform Schools are just now being agitated in Nebraska, the fol- lowing sceount of a riot last Friday in Woreester, Mass., will illustrate MOODY'S ADVICE TO UNE PLOYED WORKINGMEN. Puvlic opinion may differ, ard and does in fact, upon the merits of spasmodic reform brought about by the exciting appeals of religiovs revivalists The effect of such ap- penls like the appeal itself is merely temporary. There is a peculiar de- gree of mesmeric power in the im- passioned and studied elequence of these trained speakers that like the whirlwind carries the will of the hearer with itself, but when the storm ceases theonly propelling pow- er remaining is its momentum and when that ceases the effect is once more lost. Occasionally, however, when, with impsssioned eloquence, {he speaker appeals direct upon the reason rather than the weakness of his audience, the result has a bene- fieisl and lasting effect. Mr, Moody’s sermon last Friday at Chi- eago as reported in the Chicago 7rt hune is one of these seneible efforis. His adviee to workingmen Is so full of good sense that we reproduce it, as it is for the consideration espe cially of those who are out of work . And now a word about work. Tarn the bread you eat. I would rather earn five centsthan someone give me fiye dollars. There 1s no bope of & man’s reformation who does not go to work. Laziness be Inngs to the old creation. 1 don’t know what to do, and I don’t see what God can do, with & lazy man. 17 you can get only 25 cents a day o to weork for that. Some one once tried to abuse a Benator by saving that he used to black boots. “Didn’t I plack them well?” he answered. Work s honorable. Any honest work is better than idleness, Black boots, or carry a hot, or carry in coal; and if you ean only earn five cents a day, live on five cents a day. Don’t go in debt. Some of you think it is hard tha{ re is no work to be found; that le are £0 buspicions of you. Ws , they have reason for it; you ars only just out of the rum-shop; you are just getting up to the rrst round of the ladder; but if they find that you are realiy a true man, ihen there will ‘be people to trust you and give you employment. It 1= because thers are £0o many hypc- critesin the world that people are iraid to put confidence in you, ant predict that you will not hold out. Don’t think you are stooping be- cause you have to work for less than you got before. Do your poor rough work well, and you will find better work to do. Avother v.hmf Home of you are in the babitof lying. [ have heard of one Who professes to be a reform- e man who has been lying; and what a disgrace that is to a good canse, Now, let me say to you, be trathful If you have to teil the worst about yourself, don't lie. Own up to the truth, for it i= better and «a’er that the worst should be known. Here is a mau just out of the Peni tentiary, who gets a place of trust, and one of his old paiscomesin and threstens to blow cn him unless he puts up §25. But if he can answer, “My master knows all about me,” he is & free man, in epiteof his past disgrace. 1 waut you to tske this advioe uuau ; 1 give it from my heart. vou'don’t get ou us well as you don’t go back into sin. Une of the young converts was tempted 12 go to selling liquor again ; but tet your motto be. “Trust in God,” and Jou ean resist temptation, and come “ft victorious over the world, the fles: end the devil. THE Republicon’s hints at the pos- sivility of the BEE's daily demise, are of the wolfish order of erizs. In ite six years jof existence the BEE never has had a strike of 1ts print- ers for back pay. The Republican, on thecontrary, has had onenearlv every week in the past two months. They bavekept their employes liv- ing jon promises uutil the best of taem have thiown up their situa- tlons in order to get their pay. The Republican owed all their printers sowe of the difficulties encountered in reforming little urchins : A serious riot took place at the Westloro dtate Reform School Fri- dav, the 12th inst. About 100 bovs were in the uprising, snd the sig- nal was given by shutting off the gas in the school-room. The fght was a deeperate one for a_few minutes, every article of furniture in twoof the rooms being completely demolished. The officers suocesded iu keeping the rioters in the rooms untll belp was summoned, and then subdued them by the free use of water from a hydrant. None of the ofticers or men were seriously hurt, nd none of the boys escaped. — +“ THE BEE does not not ask Demo- crats to support any particular can- didate, but, in common with the masses of honest tax paying Repub- licans and Democrats, its editor claims the right to demand of them opposition to rascality and cor- ruption wherever it exists. In doing this, the BEE claims to be consistent. It has atall times con- demned misdemeanore of officialsin the Republican as well as the Dem. ocratic party, and 1ts columns bear evidence also to the fact that it bas given credit to all officers alike, regardless of their partizan views In asking Demoerats to oppose the re-election of Senator Hitcheock the Bee only asks of them to do the P'ain dutyof honest citizens. What- ever opinion they may entertain of other candidates, they must admit that Hiteboock’s record has been anything but that of an honorable or honest character. S—— Hos. Wl. NEVILLE, of Douglas ~Sounty, Is put down by the federal ring as sure to vote for Hiteheock. Now we heppen to know from a personal interview that he never will vote for the back-pay Senator. Mr. Neville personaily assured us and others, on his bonor, before and af- ter election, that his friends could rely uporn one thing, that Le was hus own master, and the fact that Mr. James Neville, his brother, was U 8. District Attorney, would have no influence over him: Further than this, Mr. Neville assured us that he beld in contempt the course of the Federal ring, who were doing | all sorts of dirty work to further their corrupt ends.

We are pot in the hsbit of noticing such litile busi ness matters in our nelghbor's af- fairs, but the hints of the Republican in ita Sunday issue certainly invite comment, and we make these few remarks as a reminder of Messrs. Brooks& Co. to attend to their own little affairs. ——— THE Lincoln Journal says that tue two day’s legislative adjourn- ment will operate favorably for Hitcheock. That journal fails, how. ever, {o illustrate how and in what manner such an effect can be brought about. Does theeditor pre- sume to say it will take two days for members to trace out of the six years musty records of the Senator’s time some commendable act of his t> hang upon as an excuse for their support, or does it mean what every one who knows the modus operandi of this back-pay grabber and his lobbyists, that it will give time to invent some new offices to be prom- ised, or get up some side bet for a few week-kneed legislators to take an interest in? The ways of poili ticians are certainly mysterious ? THE extraordinary developments iu the Black Hills mines are grad. ually exciting universal attention. All the leading papers in the coun- try, following in the wake of the BEE, now maintain a regular sal- aried correspondent in the new gold districts.

Telp- | graph, VOICE OF THE STATE PRESS. A SOMMERSAULT ¥ DITOR. The following extract from tbe Ashland 7imes illustrates the pecu- liar position of sold-out editors of the small brand who have so sud- denly taken a sommersault in the political fleld. New Ulster over- «coats, new suits and hmitless prom- ises are the magicians which bring about this metamorphosis : D.C. Broon,edlwr of the Oma ba Republican, the most egotistical iguoramus that ever crossed the Missouri river, is engaged throwing mud at prominent Republicans of this State because they refuse to as sist in bolstering up the most cor- rupt federal nng that ever cursed auy community. It is a notorious tact that Hitchcock’s appointees, almost without exception, have been dead beats, men who were un- able to succeed 1n any legitimate business, and unless Hitchcuck 18 returned to the U. 8. Senate, there is no possible chance for them to re- tain their positions. This fact they well understand, hence their great hue and oty of opposition Republi- s, Rosewn er men, &o.— [Saun- ders County Republican, June 2, 1876, As far as our own views are con- cerned we had no particular choice in the matter at the outset, with the tmlance in favor of Mr. Crounze.— [Republican, Dec. 26, 1876, Mr. Hitcheock has the eleanest record of the most prominent can- didates now in the field for senatorjal honors. Scarcely one of the numer- ous. nfilnnm other than Mr Hiten- cock, but what bas cut up some dido durivg bis political career that does not settle his bash with our man. Truth is migh!y and will prevail.— [Republican, Jan 4, 1877. 1t will be understood and remem- ered that the same men have had control of that ehept diring all this time, and we would like for them to show {9 tnls people tue cause for this change of opinion. The people wiil have to believe that they were bought like eattle, o they will bave to explaii. They can never explein, because fhey have no explanation that will hoid water. The people of this county read tvo much ior those editors to ¢tuff anything down them i favor of Hitchcock. Maunders county knows from experience that be is a disreputable bummer, and nothing can be said in his favor that the pecple of this county will aecept. Hitchcock has boughi the whole outfit, and they might just as well own up. Canningham is1n a little better shape financially now than be was at the close of the Senatorial elec- tion six years ago, when Dave But- ler and Bill Stout furaished him the money to go to Washinglon, to (as Btout and Butler both structed him to do) force Hitcheock to give him the place which he traded his vozs for, before he (sitcheock) had time to devise & plan by which he could repudiate the claim and deny tbe burgam.—[Blair Pilot, Jsn. 11 “I cannot honorably discharge my obligations to my constituents and vote for Mr. Hitcheock,” are said to be the words uttered by Mr. Jianchard, a member of the present Leislature, 1 reply to_the_ques- tion, “ Will you support Mr. Hitch- cock?” If every member from Western Nebraska would regard the known wishes of his constituents end live up (o those wishes in his vote for United States Senator, Hitcheoek would not receive a soli- tury vote from this end of the State. An overwhelming majority of the West have pronounced agalnst him and if our representatlves honor the wishes of the people above political combivations and trickery, Hitch- cock will not receive the support of & ingle member from Western Ne- brasks.—[ North Platte Republican. The disposition manifested by the auti Hiteheoek force at Lincoln to #ink all personal ambitions and cluims and form a union of foreesin the common cause to defeat the Hitehooek dynas'y cannot be com mended too highly. So long ag this spirit is obeyed defeat is impossible and victory will surely abide with them and the people. The cause of the anties is the cause of Republi canism, of an unbiased press and of the people 'They represent a prin- cipls which destroys the gopher clan effectually, breaks up the wickedest plitical combination of office-seek- ers and political tricksters thatever cursed a young state, strikes the po- litical s*ackles from tne party, n=u tralizes the moncpoly element which at present enters so largely into the politics of Nebraska, and will leave the people and the party free and untramelled to work for the greatest good to the greatest number. Every member with his ear at- tuned to catch the vor populi, and with conscience and heart earnest to catch the inspiration from the honest masses, will array himselt cn the side of the anti-Hitches as surely as duty points unerringly to truth and virtue leads the feet in paths of bonor.—[North Piatte Re- publican. Hitchcock and two thirds of his appointees are at Lincoln working to secure his re-clection, when they ought to be at theirjpoets of duty.— [Hastings Journs!. 1t is currently reported that en- ator Hitchoock has very generously offered Senator Paddock’s position, four years hence, for votes enough to elect him this time. How kind beis, to be sure.—[Lincoln Globe. As we go to press the line of bat- tle is forming at Lincoln for the grest fight on Tuesday ‘next. The result cannot be p‘edlctcd with safety, Hitcheock is clearly in the minority, and can only win by ihe division of bis own party, or fusion with the Democrats and Indepen- dents. -The Republicans should lay aside ali personal preferences and unite on the best man.—[8aline Co. News. Hix years ago Hitchcock went into the Démocratic caucus and pledged an “equitable division of patronage,” In case the Democrats would vote for and elect him as U. 8. Senator. He had seven Republi- can friends out of thirty-two in the Legwlature, and with these, together with twelve Democrats and seven bolters, he secured his election, against the wish of & very large majority of the repullican members. He used the democrats catspaw and then broke his faith with them, us he has ever done with members of all parties. Never, atany election in this State, has Le supported a straight republican ticket, and yet he insists thathe should be chosen by republicans as U S. Senstor. Unexampled im- pudenol.—[uneoln Globe.

It is well known, of : course, that the offices are all filled now by Hitcheock’s friends, but he is ready to promise them ten deep 1if votes can be secured thereby. —(Lowell Register. The Hitehcock dynasty is dooms ed as it ought to be, yet our advices from Lincoln are to the effect that any measure calculated to carry Hitcheock back to the U. 8 denate, no matier how dishonorable or tricky, will be resorted to.

Our preference is for the very best man who is proposed. Briggs would suit us, but Hitchcock never.—[Hast- ings Journal. Hitcheoek’s answer to the BEE'S charges, is that thess crimes of bribery and barter in appointwents are out/awed, and ought not to be brought agaiust him now. His guilt 1s proved by official records, and althougi he cannot be sent to the penitentiary, he ought certainly to be sent into private life.—[Clay County Globe, The senatotal pol pot is boiling and Hitcheock stock is now below par, and falling rapidly.

A Fire Consumes the Residence of Mr, Talbott, near Firth. Another Fire Near that Town Con- sumes a Bul'ding In Which a Child is Burned to Death---A Lively Hunt After Rab- bits and Owls. Correspondence of The Bee. FIrrn, January 13. Grain moving lively. Law suitio town to-day. Greorge Talbstt’s mge residence, five miles south of t)wn, was burn- ed to the ground early this morn- ing. The buildiug caught fire ron. a defective flue, up stairs, and while the family were at breakfast. It burped so rapidly that the family only succ:eded in saving a small amount of bedding. everything else being consumed by the fames ere the neighbors reached the scene or could render any assistance. Mr. Talbott’s loss is quite heavy, as there was but two bundred dollars insur- ance on the building. During the week there was also another dwelling burned down about ten miles southwest of us. A little child was burned to death in the building. It<eemsthe mother went out to milk, ana when she came back and opened the door the flames burst out 8o furiously that she could not possib'y enter the building to save her child. A grand hunt came oft last Wed- nesday between the ‘Nemaha Ran- gers” and the “Raspers.” They were restricted to the killing of rabbits, hawks and owls, as they are con- sidered nuisance, at night the count showed the Rangers had rasped 1t to the Raspers by about 108 rabbits 2 owls and 3 hawks.

Oorrespondanca of the Bee, North Platte, January, 18.—Bus- iness in the ‘‘Qneen” city is dull just at present, but the iuiications are that there will be s general revival in a short time. The weather for the past few days has been very cold for this locality, and the fall of snow this winter bas exceeded that of any other in the remembrance of the old-timers. Stock are doing better than can be expected un- der the above circumstances, very few it any having died. Sheep are doing finely on the ranches north of the city; they are in good, careful hands, and promise to come out all right in thespring. W think from what we have seen of this business that it would prove the most profit- able inyestment any capitalist could make with his money. The increase is fast, the pricé of wool good, and everything tends to make this the most lucrative branch of stock rais- ing in our imagimation, and we think that all who bave engaged in it haye found it to be so. Politics do not seem to disturb our citizens much, as long as the ull officers have their little for ces. They do not grumble, and !hey are the only class that ever do in this community excepting a few. J. C. Walker, Esq., for six years resident of Reatrice and cluhler of the bank of H P. Webb, has resigned his_position, and in company with his brother, Hon. Geo. Walker, a promirent Iswyer and politician of Ohio, contem- plate starting; a bauk in our city. This is 8 want longyfelt by our busi- ness men, and we think that the en ise will receive the hearty support of our citizens. For some time back there has been very strong talk of building a road to the Black Hills.

Let me see the law abeut it”” He wasshown the law, and laconically added, “Then he pulled out his wallet and reiterated the question propounded on enteri..g the room. Upon being told that all that w.uld be required of him for settiement, to avoid pro- secution, would be a wiitten apology and payment of his shafe of the osts of proceedings, he put down the required docuwent snd three dollars and went outgrumbling that it was ‘“d——d dear salvation.” By yesterdsy morning twenty- four from among those whose names had been taken on New Yea’s eve had followed this ex ample. Bome did it m the bloff manner of the young man noted above, while others sneaked up and madae their peace. Of the twelve young women whose names are on the black list, all have been atoned for either by personal appearance at the lawyer's office with the necessary apology fee, or by send 1ng these essentials at the hands of an anxlous father or brother. The amount accepted in settlement varied in individual cases, and Mr Platt, while declining to tell what were the figures either separately or in the aggregate, says that the sum fixed was influenced by the circumstances of the offender. The young men say that one of their number—the youngest of them—was absolved on wyment of fifty eents; but Mr Jatt denies that amnesty even in a quantity sufficlent for the smallest boy was sold for that amount. Oth- ers suy that the lowest quotation for the commodity was three dollars, the price bewg kept up by the firm deniand, ond the fact that the sup ply was at the merey of t':e church pnny, who had a corner in the ar ticle. These twenty-four repentanis do not include all the disturbers, as the surreplitious pencil of the good brother who plauned their day of reckoning and discomfiture recorded the names of thirty of the scions of the first families of Huntmgton There are six, all ycung men, wl are stili stiff-necked and rebe These young men have not v Lawyer Platt, nor have they perined words of contrition, and, moreover, they declare that msy will not They further say that the church has no right to compromise witn them ii they have done wrong, and is itself doing & wrong by offering such a compromise. They farthe: explain that the ciiurch exercises are always 8o Judicrous that ther merriment is aroused, sund once aroused they plead the aifficulty of allaylng it. This, they eay, has been true of the devoticns of this congr. gation since the conversion of am:r: usmned Weeden. Mr. Weeden, when spired by the spicit of an exciicd meeting, dropped on his hands aund knees and crept on all fours to illustrate how the sinnvers groped in darkness. Equally effec- tive in provoking laughter of the young visitors was Mr. Weeden's delineation of the distress of the un- regenerate, when overwhelmed by the waters of affliction, znd with- out the coasolations of religion; Thia was pletured by Mr. Weeden, by falling flat upon his face on the floor, and kickinz and swrawling iu imitation of t: motions of swim- ming. Mr. Weeden is no longer conspicuous in the meetings, but hi= place is supplied by a Mr. Harry Bammis, who is distinguished from him only as meutal gyianas- tics are distinguished from phy- sical ones, It was Mr. Samms, the younr man say, who innocently started the merrimeat that after- ward assumed disgraceful _propor- tious on New year's eye. He did it by a description of his fight with the devil. He was grapbic, and told how he had grasped the evil one in bis hand, and wrestled with “ters, and overcame him; and how he had at lengh driven bis irfernal majesty into the leg of a boot and closing the top with his_hand, bad held him prisoner. This started the hilarity that even the actors themselves admit was uproarious. Much misehief was done by & young man with a spool attached toa string. By rolling the spool under-the seats and carefully pull- ing it back he created the impression that a mouse was running about the floor, and great commotion was ex- cited among the women. Coughing and laughing were prolific sources of annovance, and the young man with the ciay pipe, already men- tioned, was abetted by companions with cuna@, who pushed the bats over the eyes of the ladies in front of them and pulled down their back hair. As the faithful were called cloger to the aitar, three of the sis ters innocently ldded to the mirth by bearing plicards inscribed “Real Estate for Sale,” “C. O. D.,” and “No Trust.” + GAL NOTICE.
