Lincoln. June 2(i. 18S1.
The Herald has advices from the
bear I of managers whose duty it is to
locate the new Soldiers' Home in this
"Far West," that this board meet at
the Dayton, (Ohio) Home on the 18th
of September next, and that after con
cluding their quarterly inspection of
the Dayton Home, aud the one at Mil
waukee, Wis., they will then proceed
west on their tour, for the purpose of
making the selection of a site for the
new Horn. This board will meet at
some point in each state embraced
within the District in which this Home
is to be establiahed, when the claims of
competing localities will be received
and considered .
If the location is suitable, and meets
the approval oi this board there will
be no difficulty in procu ring a site, as
fie board are empowered to purchase
a "suitable site."
We notice by 'the Council Bluffs
Nonpareil that our Iowa neighbors
are moving on the board of managers
in favor of Council Bluffs, and that
Congressman Pu3ey, of the Ninth con
gressional district, is at work with the
board in favor of his home, "The
Bluffs.1' This information the Her
ald has received from an authentic
source.
Maj. J. K. Morlet deputy Com
missioner of Public Lauds and Build
ings, is very flatteringly mentioned in
seAeral of our exchanges for the shoes
of Mr. Glen Kendall. Major Morlay
has been deputy in this department
since the year 1S7T; bis duties during
the past two years being confined ex
clusively to drafting the deeds and
contracts of the Land Office. Major
Morlay is a competent, methodical,
painstaking ofScia!, and Lis long ex
peritnee in the commissioner's office
would undoubtedly add greatly to his
natural qualifications for the discharge
of the very important duties of that
very important office, and should it
turn out that Mr. Glen Kendall's ad
ministration of this department has
been all that it ought to be, we can see
many good rcufeous civil service as
well others why tho Major ouifht
to succeed hid chief.
STILL ANOTHER.
Mr. O'Oonahoe Gives His Reasons.
Editor Western Celt:
I have watched with much interest
the taeticd of both political parties
since tho nomination of Blaine and
CleTt'laiid. I have also glanced through
the pages of history since the days of
Washington, anil never has cither par
ty I care not what name they went
by appeared iu its true light till now.
At other times a cloud would appear to
impair the vision us to the ultimate de
sign of either party ; but now the mask
is thiown off, and we behold each par
ty in its true light. The issue now is,
what influence England can have in the
affairs of this great and glorious re
public.
The democratic party cf today
courts the friendship of England and
her free trade policy. The republican
party eaye, "Hands off, Johnny Bull,
we know how to regulate our wn af
fairs, without your intermeddling. If
in the course of events we think that
free trade will benefit us, we will have
it without your eay-so." This is the
right Bpirit, and the spirit that should
animate the breast of every American
citizen.
England interfered wiQ the regula
tion of our affairs in 1776, 1812, and in
1862, and every time she tried to make
us yield to the British yoke All her
leading journals of today are advocat
ing the election of Cleveland, and her
Cobden club will send thousands of
pounds to this country in order to se
cure bis election. Thece same journ

hound ready near the const of France,
to protect C 4 tain Seniu.e.- w.;n tin;

age.
Can any line American, :;u.i n.oie
especially an Itili-Aii.t-rU an, support
the English candidate? I emphatically
say, no unless he becomes recreant to
every principle of humanity and hon
esty. Vote, I say, for America's can
didate, James G. Blaine, and give him
such an overwhelming majority iu No vember
that the Cobden club and its
confederates will be buried out of sight
torever and ever. Then democracy
may be purified.

AN INDEPENDENT KID-
An Independent kid becoming wroth
because ha could not have all the Fie
he wanted one day, came to his Father
and said:
O father dear, behold me here,
I'll never more be good !
I'll go and be a bolter fierce,
And live in the drearv wood.
Accordingly he bolted and coming to
the Dreary Wood, fell in with the dem
ocratic Tiger.
"Are you iu favor of Free Trade
and of Civil Service Reform ?" said the
Kid.
"Jut look at my Platform aud See,"
said the Tiger.
While the Kid was looking at the
Platform the Tiger jumped upon him
and Swallowed him down in one Swal
low.
Soon after tha Father came out to
hunt the Kid, and seeing the Demo-
erttic Tiger, shot him in the Stomach.
The Kid being in the Stomach got per-
pered too.
This fable teaches us that the Indi
pendent Kids are not so wise as their

Price 25 cents. This fascinatiog story
one of tha best from the autbor.s prac
tised pen, will find a multitude ot
earnest and appreciative readers. It
draws a sharp contrast between genu
ine practical religioa and its fashion
ab'e substitute, and shows the hollow
ness of a life not based upon sound
principal. The character of Lois Glad
stone is clearly and effectively drawn,
and the story of her experance iu the
Hurd household with the changes
brought about in it through her quiet
but presisent icflacence, is told with
skill and feeling. There is hardly a
page without its suggestive passage

tain so much that is realy halpful to
young girls placed in position where
self-control, moral courage nd self
faeriflce are require:!
