Mr. Editor: I bco by last weck'a
Journal that Mr. Sherman still insists on
proving (wo suppose unconsciously, for
I havo great compassion fur that dull
intellect of his) tho claim of the f Mends
of American industry. That tho whole
free trade theory is founded upon false
assumptions, and false statements. Just
listen to what he says in his article Lead
ed, "The Homo Market a Humbug."
Tho attention of the farmers' alliances
in the country and of the farmers that
are invited to vote for the home market
is called to the following list, showing
that protected American manufacturers
Bell their goods cheaper abroad than
they do at home:

their agricultural
American manufacturers mane a prom,

clean gift to them by the tariff, which
robs the farmer to that extent. And
they are robbed to the same extent on
.every other thing they buy except their
diamonds and precious stones.
I have taken the trouble to enquire of
our local dealers the prices at which
they sell the above named articles, nnd
here is what they can be bought for in

If Mr. Sherman thinks that such mis
representations are going to fool the
people, he will wake up some day and
find out that he is sadly mistaken. The
fact3 are that our manufacturers do not
sell to foreign markets any cheaper than
they do to the home market, but for
eigners come here and pay the full
wholesale price?, ship the goods to their
country and sell them higher than they
are sold here.
Miss Bertha "Wise stopped yesterday in
the city with her mother returning to
Omaha this morning.
About COO undertakers will meet and
;alk over the secrets of the trade in
Omaha on the 1st of October.
Many readers of the Herald will be
sorry that Henry Stout, son of W. II. B.
Stout, has apparently lost his mind r nd
on yesterday was placed in charge of
officers at Lincoln, where he resides.
Los. Graves' little five year old boy
fell from a corn crib yesterday and
broke both bones in his arm. Dr.
.scjuldknecht set the broken members
and the little fellow is doing as well as
coilld be expected.
$fY v . , , . Tniinor business man
of this city with a dark mustache is re
ported to be arranging for a matrimoni
al alliance with a young lady residing
in Iowa. The happy event is said to be
billed for the 15th of next month.
The Supreme court handed down
quite a number of opinions yesterday,
but none affecting Cass county clients or
attorneys. Cur judicial district will not
be reached before some time next week,
so that no hearing will be had for a few
days on our court house matter.
The seventeen pound girl that recent
ly arrived at the handsome residence of
Dr. Siggins is pronounced by good
judgesto be the finest in the city. The
Herald was a little slow in tailing the
public about it, but the baby is a daisy
and no mistake.
Wm. A. Sayles one of the B. & M's
efficient engineers with head quarters at
Plattsmouth, was married to a Hastings
belle Tuesday evening. The Herald
extends congratulations and hopes the
new couple will make Plattsmouth their
future home. Mr. Sayles is the engineer
that pulls the flyer for Frank Hall.
T W. Lansins of this city has been
i designated to address a meeting tonight
" , -i . ;n :nllnlfTa
at Elmwoou, ana lumunuw n m. uu
in a joint discussion of campaign issues
at Exste with Mr.McKeigan,as the 'dem
opendent' candidate for congress from
the Second district has been dubbed by
the people who, in a misguided moment,
elected him county judge. Dealers in
hides and hair will do well to hover
around in that vicinity, as it is current
ly reported that the Second district ex
horUrhas been more successful as a
capillary agriculturalist than in agrarian
(puf suits.
Pick Dockets.
I nfr. BuzzelL mother of the manager
of the telephone exchange, had the mis-
t fortune this morning to have n er pocket
' book stolen by the light fingered gentry,
which contained $36. It occurred as
i she was getting on the 9:15 train at the
depot this morning; three well dressed
young fellows rudJy crowded them
1 selves on to the steps, apparently in a
!great;burry to get aboard the train, and
tha im was on at the steps the
pocket book was taken, Mrs. Buzzell
haying missed it immediately anerwaru.
The police were notified but no clue was
apparently discovered. The thieves
probably remained on the train.
Dick McNurlin and Fred Oorder, Jr.,
make up a pair of good naturcd Weeping
Waterites in attendance at the fair.
The Herald learns that there are ju6t
22 pile? bridges to be built between
Plattsmouth and Union on the new line
of the Missouri Pacific
C. C. Worrell the genial ticket agent
and George E. Sayles, the worthy Po :t
Master at Cedar Creek catuc down this
morning to attend the fair.
Col. Grcusel and, wife arrived in the
city laat evening, for a few weeks visit
with relatives, and to see their 2Sth
grand child. Miss Lillie Wortenburger.
A jolly surprise prty was given
Charley Cummins last evening in honor
of his 82nd birthday anniversary at their
pleasant home on Pearl street. Qu;te a
number of Plattsmouth's best young peo
ple were in attendance and assert that
a delightful evening was passed and a
a splendid supper was partaken of.
Of course every body is going to the
great Louisville bridge barbecue next
week, the 24th, and have a great time.
The train leaves here at eight o'clock and
will, returning, leave Louisville a little
after four. And in order to make a
creditable showing our people ought to
take the B. & M. band up with them, a
pmall subscription from each one going
would foot the bill.
Our old time friend, James Toman,
now of Utica, Seward county, but for
many years station agent at Louisville,
was recently remembered ' by the late
Chas. Dewey of Omaha, who willed Mr.
Toman and his wife a thousand dollars
each, Mrs. Toman being a distant relative
of Mr. Dewey's. The Herald extends
congratulations for so thoughtful a re
membrance. Johnny Fitzpatrick caught a suspicious
character about the depot this morning
and searched him, hoping to find Mrs.
Buzzle's pocket book, but failed. He
turned the fellow loose, as the train for
the east was pulling out at a lively gait,
and was almost paralyzed to see the
young fellow throw himself under the
rapidly moving train and crawl up on
to the truck. John said he would not
haye taken the chances the bum did for
the whole world.
Tom Wiles is disconsolate and refuses
to be comforted. He appeared in the
role of peace maker at the fair yesterday
and was trying to smoothe things over
when a policeman, whose acquaintance
he had not heretofore made, stepped up
and arrested him. Tom was never ar
rested before and he didn't like it, but
by the time the cop had walked hira a
few yards he took a tumble and Tom
was released, but at present writing he is
very warm.
The Hon. James E. Boyd was getting
his shoes blacked by tho colored porter
in the basement of the Hotel Riley yes
terday, and to pass the time struck up a
conversation with the porter on political
matters which drifted around to the
gubernatorial nomination, when he
asked, "what's the matter with Boyd,
can't you support him?'' "No sah,'
said the gentleman of color, "he's no
good at all." The Omaha statesman
went upstairs without disclosing his iden
tity, and had not a barber near by taken
in the whole situation, the storv would
never have got out.
- The Fair
What would have been the great day
of the fair has been hopelessly ruined by
the rain. There were no entries made
last night and no races today. Union
Medium yesterday won the 2:35 trotting
race in 2.31, making one heat in 2.27.
In the pacing race St. John won in 2.30.
The fair closes today.
There will be a "called meeting" of
the Women's Christian Temperance
Union, Friday afternoon at 3 o'clock at
Mrs. S. A. Davis between S and 9 on
Pearl street. All members are requested
to be in attendance a3 there i9 important
business before them.

The Switch Was too Snort
Gmaha Bee ;
Passenger train No. C on the Burling
ton due in Omaha at 9:10 p. m., met with
a very serious wreck last night at Chalco
a station about twenty miles down the
road towards Lincoln.
The west-bound freight meets the pas
senger at that place, and last night the
freight train was a very long one. It
pulled onto the switch to let the passen
ger pass, but the switch was not long
enough for the train. Seven cars and
the caboose stil) stood on the main track
when the passenger train came rolling
along. Engineer Lyman of the passen
ger train supposed that the freight train
was all on the switch and simply slow
ed up a little he InUnded pulling right
through, as he says there was no signal
for him to stop for passengers. When
within a few rods of the back end of the
freight train he noticed that the main
track was not clear and whistling down
brakes he and the fireman jumped for
their liyes.
The engine of the pai.v.ntr train
struck the seventh car from the caboose
and knorkad it into kindling wood. The
next five cars were smashed up nd
thrown into a promiscuous heap on the
depot platform and alniost,k hoc king the
little depot off its platform. The last
car hit the caboose and was pitched on
top of tho engine when the passenger
train came to a dead halt. The caboose
was not moved from the main track.
Fortunately no one was killed or fc
riously injured
The passengers were considerably
shaken up, but as none of the passenger
cars left the track a severe shock was the
eqtent of the damage to the passengers
and some splintering and jaraing was all
the damage done to the passenger coach
es. The engine was badly wrecked.
Engineer Lyman sustained a severe
wreenh in the neckand one of the brake
men who jumped received a bruise on
the leg.
An engine end two coaches were sent
out to transfer the passengers and return
ed to Omaha at 12:20.
The passengers improved the two hour
wait by helping themselves ta a car of
fruit that lay spread out over the ground
and dopot plattform as a result of the
collision.

Denver, Col.. Sept. 9, '90.
Postmaster, Plattsmouth. Neb , Dear
Sir: Will you please write me if an old
gentleman, Alfred L. Brown, is still
living in your city; or if you know that
any of his children are there, I would
esteem it a kindness.. Also the address
of any of them if they are 6till in Platts
mouth. Very Respectfully.

Cass County Cattle.
From Friday's Daily
E. E. Day certainly Las reason to feel
proud of his fine herd of cattle, and the
manner in which they are being no' iced
in journals devoted to live stock and
agriculture, since they were on exhibi
tion at the fall fairs.
At Creston, Iowa, these cattle received
three first premiums; e.t Des Moines,
four, and at Lincoln, five. "Mable," the
two-year old heifer belonging to this
herd,! is considered one of the very finest
female Herfords in the country. She
was awarded first honors at Lincoln, but
at Des Moines, owing to disreputable
methods of the judges, she was relegated
to third place.
In speaking of the abuse the Western
Resources has the following:
One of the rankest abuses in the show
yard at Des Moines was placing the mar
velously good heifer, Mable. third,
when we believe without exception that
there was not a cattleman present but
what declared Mable the premier Here
ford female of the exhibition. Even
those who were awarded first and second
honors over this marvelous beauty did
not value their prizes because they did
not think they earned them. W. W.

Jack Grace of South Bend was in the
city yesterday, taking in the fair.
Wm. Ossenkop of Louisville, and
Sile Peterson of South Bend were with
us yesterday .
O. B. Polk Esq. of Greenwood, return
ed home yesterday after a week's work
in the new office of C. S. Polk in this
city.
The Herald is in receipt of a neat in
vitation to attend the Louisville bridge
celebration. Thanks, we will be there
McClintic, the horse doctor from
Eagle, and democratic candidate for the
senate, looked after hi3 fences yesterday
in this city. Col. McClelland of the
Journal acted as pilot and helped him to
paint the town.
Brother Mayfield and Brother Keith
ley appear to be somewhat critical . The
Herald trusts that the argument will
not be carried too far, as tho auburn
haired editor of the Courier-Journal
sometimes becomes fractious, and noth
ing short of pistols and coffee will sat
isfy him. He is a dangerous man, as we
can prove by the editor of the Louisville
Advertiser, and we warn Keithley now
in good season, to keep out of range.
The Courier-Journal readers have evi
dent prDof each week that Mayfield don't
know a typographical error when he sees
one. This accounts for his ransacking
the dictionary, encyclopedia, bible, etc..
and calling on the saloon keepers to as
certain what the Republican meant by
thanking a friend for a toothsome water
melon, and the typo got an T in the
word where the 4t' belongs. Mayfield
concluded by asking, "What in horn
pipes did Keithley eat?" Well May field
it wasn't one of your sboats. Neither
was it what you say modern Americans
are full of, "Congenuity." W. W. Re
