Wiis be soon issued irom the Re- publican press: “Purchased roxies, or How we Attempted to Parify the Primaries”’; by Jobn M. Thurston | e ursa, THF BATTLY FOR REFORM. It is impossible to please those who will not be pleased. It is useless to hope by cencessions to appease a_ fac- tion who are opposed to anything short of complete and unconditional surrender. The republican cen- tral committee at its meeting, Monday afternocn, proved clearly enough that nothing but complete surrender of principle could satisfy the hireling cormorants, who there sought to purchase the opportunity to capture the committee, and undo the work of reform, which is being applauded by all good republi- cans throughout the state. Although o protest agaivst the rules adopted for the regulation of primsries had ever been presented to the committee, although they had no other knowledge of the existence f such a protest ex- cepting threugh the unbacked asser- tions of the Omaha Republican, al- though noremonstrance from members of the party had been made to it, the central committee, for the sake of harmony,and in the vain endeavor to remove party disaffsction, voluntarily, abandoned every porticn of their pro- jeet which could be distorted to indi- cate partisanship and retained ouly the casence of & system whose cbject s to purge the party primaries of fraud and corruption. Of w hat, now, can sny honest re publican complain, however bitter his perscnal enmity or factional pattisan- ship! No republican, known as such, will bo disenfranchised. Registration will be completed, but completed s0 as to leave no shade of excuse tor any hint of unfairness. The judges and clerks of election will be appointsd by the whole com- wmitte; the judges and clerks of elec- tions will issue the credentials of the elected candidates which will be pre- sented to the county convention. That convention will nominate its own temporary chairman, It will decide all contests, but will not, of recognize any contestants outside of its own regulations. Can anything be freer from taint of suspi- cion of personal sggrandizement. No Jnown republican will offer his vote st the polls in the city and be rejected. The unknown re- publicans have no right to gramble if they have not identified themselves with the party by applying for regis- tration or by joining a republican club. They cannot complain at their own voluntary disicanchisement, Under the provisions of the central committee the rights of all republi- cins are eacredly guarded. In the coming primary elections the majority of the party will, for the first time in Douglas county, have the right to voice their wishes. The rabble, repeaters and imported voters will be rigidly excluded. No decent man can possibly object to that. No reasonable man, no honor- able man can object to the restric- tions imposed. Ouly a corporate monopoly that hss ruled the party by fraud and corruption,—a faction ready to desert the party whenever it findsfit cannot rule it—stands to-day a3 an objector and tries to sow dissen- sion in the ranks of those who are bittling for primary reform. Repub- Jisans all over Nebraska have en- dorscd the movement for party purifi- cation. Men, to whom the success of the party is of far higher import than the success of any faction, men who caunot be bribed by money or bought by salaried offices, have come forward in hearty praise of the move- ment. Carried out with the co-opera- tion of honest and loyal republicans, the primaries will no longer be a stench in the nostrils of the city. The reform inaugurated in Omaha will be emulated in every county in the state by all parties before another yesrs ex- ires. Pablic sentiment, once aroused, will demand the enactment of laws to protect the ballot at the primarles. (iuarded by the mantle of and Casper E.

Tag republican central committee of Alabama have published an address 1o the country protectingin bitter lan- guage sgainst the outrageous fraud which robbad the party of 20,006 ms- jority in tLat state and returned 70,- 000 majority for the democrats. The showing is a most damning one as an exhibit of southern political methods. ACCORDING to the Republican a mae jority of the county committee with- drew from the room and left the mi- mority to conduct the business of the committee. This is the first instance we over heard of a majority running away from s minority when they hsd the power at any time to assert them- ves by voting the minority dowr. TIx view of thesn two facts the pro- testing republicans decided to avail themselves of such representation in the county comuittee as they could properly secure.—[Republican, What brazen hyposrisy! The names of the U. P. minority show on their face what were the proper means used to secure what the brass collared bri- g:de thought wero & majority of the committse. Their plot, which they "0aght had been kept secret, was ex- posed early in the day by & member wf the committee, who was offered §75 or his vote or proxy in the meeting. Bavs the Boston Advertiser: The objscts of the republican party are mvowable and worthy. They might well enlist the sympithy f the best civizens of thesouh.

Z:slong as the south is solid for a poty that dares not allow equal . 7hts, it must be opposed as a whole. E 3¢t is 1ot a situation which repub- 1i>uns desire, aud they hops by wise 2.4 impartial admiaistration 1o con- wvincs the south that they denounce law, and shielded from the assaults of muscle and pocket book, the prima- ries will then at length be the free and unrestricted expression of party sentiment, and the nominees of the republican party will be those which the people, who have dictated them, will support.

Corraspondence of the WestrRy, Avgust 23, 1880.—Thisis the garden spot of South Fork pre- cint. Ten years sgo a few eastern men of pluck and work settled here. Unlike too many Nebraskans they first and foremost et out trees, hedges and orchards. Their wisdom is justified to-day by the magnificent breadth of groves and lines of trees that beautify the whole neighborhood. Among these foremost in this work, and who also are becoming proeperous and rich, are H. H. Steveus, E. Bronson, T. M. Wheeler, County Commissioner Wm. Mautton, and Kelly. There are others whose names I cannot recali, Mr. Wheeler was too modest to claim all the superiority of this section as due to extra work, he aflirms that no better lay of Jand can be found in Nebraska. Four years ago I visited this same spot, and could not but be surprised at the wonderful growth of trees and hedges. There is much fruit planted. 1-witneesed hera the rare sight in central Nebraska, loaded apple trees. Last year peaches were plenty. Western is becoming quite a centre of trade for the surrounding country. W, Kaup, former clerk with Hon. J. W. Dawes, Crete, is postmaster, and started a etore some years agoin which he did so well that C. H. Perry has lately built and opened another store, which seemed to be doing & good business. A church also adorns the centre, and severai cther new buildings. Western shows what can be dore ina very short time to develop into wealth ‘and beauty the soil of Ne- braska. Ten yeaas ago bare prairie without a solifary bush or tree, lay spread out where now all these great improvements meet the eye. Dr. Bowman, driven out of Kansas he severs Grouth, is the welcome physician at Western, and is full of business. My trip to Western began at Man- dana, the new postcfiice in Lincoln precinct, next to Seward county, and 00k me through the centre of Monroe, North Fork aud South Fork precincts, uting up nearly two days. There was a marked variety of country, but no waste or poor land; and the bottom lands of Tarkeyand Swan creeks were exceptionally rich, while the ap. proaches to the winding streams were covered with beavtiful natural groves of various kinds of timber. Josept Wideck has a choice farm at the torde of Turkey creck (the bridge beiag below the regalar rosd.) Mr. W. 12 a democrat straight, and claims that his wite is more so, too. So when I talked BeE to him aud he said to his boy, ““go ask your mother whether ehe will take THE BEE that has a ‘sliver,”” T togjs the hint and begged to plead my own cause. They took TaeBee. Not sure but they lked the sliver. Mr. Wideck bas in this year 140 acres of corn, 100 acres of wheat and foeds 100 hogs. Over the Turkey I found the Gil- berts, father and son, the latter rep- resenting the county in the legisla- They homesteaded this beau- mber land when there was not aresident in any direction. In the center of the countyythe lands, although ail sold, railroacsand and all, are for miles still larcely in prairie, but will not remain so long. Grass on the prairies is mnot as abundant as usual, and the farmers are feeling alitile anxious about corn The fields stand rank and promising, but rain is needed for the filling out of late plantings. A good shower now would do a world of good. McCreedy bas a choice farm in Atlantaprecinct. Mr. McCrecdy has had a shaping haud in Saline county matters,and is now a prominent green- backer. He admitted, however, that the finances were in a good condition The tamily are in decp mourning for a favorite son who was lately killed in a flouriog mill at Wilbur, baving a wife and four children. At Friendille, good reader, if you want a nico room avd a seat at one of the beet tables west of Omaha, go to the Sanders. John Sandera is a house- hold word to all travellers of the B. & M. The Commercial, after several changes, seems to have closed its doors, If tne BRE desires to know the special business of this correspond- entin Saline county see the last Crete Standard. What that paper don't know of other people’s matters who does? Much interest is taken in the presi- dential contest and the confidence is daily growing that the next president will not be Hancock. The longer men “look on this picture, then on that,” the worse for the man whose statesmanship is all in the thimble of ‘West Point tactics. There is lots of common sense among the energetic pioneers of Nebraska; there is also in the precincts more political fairness aud freedom than in the cities. They are more anxious to hear beth sides. Machine politics is less in favor, and double-headers stand little chauce. Unfortunately the wire pullers and grabbers are more numercus as you get away from the interlor districts towards the final county comuittees, and there their plans are so well laid in advance, as often to forestall the real wishes of the poople. But “this offense is rank and smells to heaven,” and I confidently predict the begin- ning of the end of these snap elec- tions, CRETE STANDAED. The departure of this paper in its sudden turn ngainst Paddock, and equally against Dawes and Wells is much surmised upon, what does it mean, inasmuch as The Standard was onderstood to be and gave every evidence of being a sort of Dawey organ. Many suspect the movement tobe a trick, but it is being con- cluded generally to be sincere,and the legitimate outcome of the situation In the severo strugele of 1876 which brought Mr. Dawes up into the line of victory, no man worked harcer than M. A. 'Daugherty, pres- ent editor of the Standard. A young lawyer then #s now, he pulled off his coat and worked here, there and everywhere, night and day, not only with zeal, but ability. Your corres- pondent epeaks from the book, and knows sll he afirms. In that bard fight, made clcse and bitter by the faction of anti-Dawes men, Wells and Morris were on the other side. It is natural then that Daugh- erty, spparently uorecognized for past sorvices, and seeing the very ones put forward against whom the Sight was and over whom the victory Was won skould rebel; if confederates are recognized and welcomed to a fair field, it " would seem tke gray ought nct o be sdvanced over 1hs blge. Be- eides Mr. Davgherty is independent, sticks to pnnciils, and may be look. ing a Little farther shead in this mat. ter. The goddess of politics is not 4 blind goddees, though she may some: times be hoodwinked by her Votsries, her mills may be slow, but they grind. J.W. A, POLITICAL NOTES: Robert Toombs supports the anti- Colquitt democratic minority in Geor- gla. One of the big traes in the Caleve— ras Grove has been named for General Garfield. The republicans of Charleston, S. C., intend to hold a ratification meet- ing on Monday, 23d Inst. The republicans of the seventh dis- trict of North Caro'ioa have nomina- ted David M. Furches for representa- tive in congrees. The democrafs of the sixth distri of Towa (Weaver's district) have i dorsed Judge John C. Cook, the Greenback nominee. Congressman R. F. Armfeld has been renominated on the seventh bal- Iot by the democratic convention in the seventh district of North Caro- lina, The greenbackers of the Fifth dis- trict of Iudiava have nominated Dr, Jonah H. Robinson for representa- tive in congre:s in place of Prof, John C. Redpath, declined. The Hon. Edward J. Phelpe, the demccratic candidate for governor of Vermont, says that he will not make any speeches in the coming campaign, because he does not think it proper for a candidate to advocate his own election. The democrats of the First district of Kansss have nominated Mayor John C. Tomilson, of Atchison, for representative in congress. In the Third district of Kansas the demo- ¢rats have nomivated J. Wade Mc- Donald. Ex-Gov. Hendricks, last week, pub- licly expressed approval of the parti- ssn decision of the supreme court of Tndiana annulling the constitutional amendments which the peaple had r ified. If he lives long enough he may Tegret it. There being some doubt about the eligibility of the Hon. Jeremiah H. Boone, the republican candidate for elector for the Eighth district of Penn- sylvania, the question has been sub- mitted to Chairman Cessna, of the stale committee, Capt. Lewis F. Green has been nominated for representative in con- gress by the greenbackers of the Sec- ond district of Kansas. He ran asa fusion candidate for county clerk four yesrs ago, and received 821 votes to 2,896 for the republican candidate. Leading republicans of San Francis- co have organized a vew club to be known as the republican league of California. ~The initiation feo is $50, and already the club has nearly 200 membera. The president is F. F. Low, and_the secretary George C. Bickox. Rooms are being fitted up on California street, and they will be supplied with everything that makes club rooms attractive, as it is the in- tention to make them a pleasant re- sort for che members and a place wherein distinguished guests from abroad may be properly entertained. Representative M. P. 0'Connor, of South Carolina, told the democratic district convention, which renominated him for congress, that the southern pecple “have toolong clung to their 1dols of political faith, and rejected the fostering hand of a paternal government,” and that they ought now to look to their material interests and “‘ipsist upon their proper tributive share of the public revenue for the building up of their commerce aud the development of their still hidden and maaifold resources.” Robert Toombs is not favorably im- pressed by Gen. Gordon’s assertion that he could not live in Washington on senator’s salary of $6000 a year. Toombs says that he could live on §1500, that he !as boarded in Wash- ington at §10 a week with such men as Clay and Crittenden for fellow- boarders, and that any man ought to be proud to represent Georgia in the scnate, and to win and wear so high an honor he cught to be willing to live on potatoes, if necessary. Railroad Taxation. Satton Razister. Associated capital has many advant- over the individual and particu- tly of *he individual of small means. ially is this so with respect to faverable legislation. Railrozd com- panies enjoy, perhaps, the greatest fa- cilities in this respect, and have gen- erally met with the greatest success of any class of associated capital: Pass- ing through a largo extent of country whose local interests are, in a great measure, dependent upon the policy and action of the corporation it is but natural for communities to make con- cessions, even, in excess of the benefits received. But it is with legislative bodies that these corporations are most suc- cessful. There arcso many ways by which members are placed in friendly relations with the company; s0 many courtesics extended which cost the company nothing bat which are valu- able to the receiver, that at the end of a session it gencrally turns out that the railroads have fared better than the people at the hands of the latter’s servants. The last Nebraska legislature was no exception to the general rule in this respsct. Not only was all logis: lation looking to the protection of the people from excessive charges by the railroads defeated under the lead of farmer Howe, of Nemaha, but a law was passed which virtually exempts a lerge amount of railroad property from taxation. This law provides that all depots, round houses, machine shops, ctc., shall be included in the general assessment of the road at so much per mile, tho value boing fixed by tho state board of equalization. Formerly this local property was aesessed by the precinct asseesor the same 23 other property found in the precinct, and was in ad. dition to the general assessment of the road and roiling sock. That the rate per miie is any greater :han it would have been under the old law is, we think, very unlikely. Tho assess. ment of the St. Joe & Western road in this county at less than £4000 per mwile strengthensthis view. But even it this_property wero assessed as high as it ought to be, and as high as it would be under the old law, it is unjust in anotner respect. Instance the town of Grand Island, which voted $50,000 in consideration of having machive shops erected there. Instead of being added to the assess. ment roll of that precinct and city to help sustain the local government, it is distributed all along the line of the road. North Platte, by the same act, is deprived of a, large revenue which justly belongs to her. Likewise Oms. ka, which also made large donations for everything it got and many things it didn’t get. _ It may be said thet the benefits de. rived from the presence of the shops, etc., are 80 great that the towns have no right to complain. The same plea would exempt factories, machine shops, mills, ete., from taxation alto- gether. Property should be faxed where found. The duty of protecting the property devolves on the local suthoritiee, and the property within their jurisdiction should ~ contrib- uie towsrd the expense of 8o doing. The shops are located at par. ticular points not for the benefit of those towns, but for the convenience of the company, ard thould be sub- ject to the same rules as to taxation that apply toother property. 4nd again, whyhdid the railroad companies secure the passage of this law if they did not taeseby sovure ag spe me exemption from taxation no corded to the property of individuals? The legislature of this state should enact laws for the benefit of the peo- plo of Nebraska a8 well a8 for the benefit of her corporations. Aspects of the Iron Trade. Bradstreet’s Moatbly. Among the encouraging features of the iron trade, which have been re- counted in this joural recently, the improvement of the demand for iron in Great Britain from other sources than this country is now growing in importance. The Increase of the ship- ments of rails from Great Britain affords an illustration of this fact. While the statistics show that the in- crease in (he shipments to the United States for June was only one-sixth as compared with those for May, those to British North America and India were nearly three times as great, snd to_Australia nearly twice as great. Add to this the statement of the Lon- don correspondent of Bradstreet's that for a single week in July 24,000 tons of Middlesbrough iron were ex- ported, and none of it for American account, and the force of the stat ment that the foreign iron market assuming a firmer tone, independent of the United States, be compte- hended. The necessity of payingastrict attontion to the condition of the Eog- lish iron trade has been sharply Im- pressed upon the American iron in- terest by its experiencs of the past s monthe. Tt is, therefore, pleasant to learn from high English authority, corroberaied'by such facts as those adduced above, that while England is now sending comparatively little iron to the United States she is maintain- ing the volume of her export other parts of the world ars more of the British iron, and that this iz bona fide business, while tha American shipments were largely speculative, and that, sl things con- siderad, a healihy development of the English iron trade may be expected, the turning point of the depression having been reached. It is not less comfortable to know that, while the prospects are favorable for a steady prosperity to the {ron trade, the indications are that the governing influences of the market will prevent any epecu ative inflation of values to a point likely to be burden- some to the consumers of iron. The capacity of Euglish production now standing idle, and ready to blow-in upon amoderate sppreciation of prices there, is _practically unlimited, inas- much as it is in excess of any probable demands. Here, whils the supply of production availsble for increate is 1ot 80 vast, it is still sufficient to exer- cise wholesome check upon specula- tion or excezsive advanc 1t will be easy tor the o States to_increase its production at very short notice, considering the ~ number of furnaces now idle, some of which were in_operation six months ago, while others were just getting ready to go inwhen the reaction came. Any attempt to put up the market to unreasonable prices willbe met by in- creased supplies, both at home and abroad. and in the light of recent ex- periments, the general sense of the trade is very strongly opposed to such a policy. 1t is, therefore, in our view, a very satisfuctory and encouraging aspect of the iron trads when all the indica- tions point to a large and active de- mand for theproducts of the domestic mills and furnaces, and an_improving and hopeful outlook for the English ironmasters, independent of theircon- nection with this market; when the mills aro assured of a steady and per- manent business on a conservative basis and moderate prefits, and when it not only appears that there is an ac- tive demand for iton, but that there is also an adequate supply which will furnish consumers with all they want at moderate and reasonsble prices,and exercito a wholesale check upon ex- citement, speculation and inflation. All these things point to the conclus- ion that the iron trade is now upona sounder, more legivimate and perma- nent basis of prosperity than it has been for years past. The nomination of Congressman Omar D. Conger, of Michigan, is for his seventh consecutive term.
