THE FARCE IX OMAHA.
From the Republican we Iea-n that
the ring' Democracy made a desper
ate attempt to keep in power, and went
o far as to open a separate poll, where
rotes were received without any regard
to registry the so called judges having
nolijtof the registered voters. But
they were completely "scooped;" frr
even counting all the votes cast at this
bogus poll the Republican ticket is
about 230 ahead. Tho Republican
claims that not less than 200 of the
voters at this democratic poll were not
registered, and that no questions were
asked those who voted. The vote cast
at this poll foots up 6s0 Democrats and
13 R-publican,ihe latter voting through
mi.-take. The vote at the enly legal
poll opened stands 75 Democrats to 925
Republican.

KAIL.RO AO COXVEXTIOX'.
At the present writing we cannot
tell what the verdict of the peop'e of
this county has been upon the question
of issuidg R. R. bonds; but let it be
what it will, we'have another project
to lay before them. The question of
building a road from Atchison to Oma
ha, along the west bank of the Missouri
river has been talked of considerably,
but as yet no formal action has been
taken by the counties through which it
would pass in Nebraska. The propo
sition to take S400.000 in stock has
been submitted to the people of Doni
phan county, Kansas, and we presume
has carried. Now, what can be done
in Nebraska to aid the enterprise.
Se"enty-eight miles of road from the
Kansas line north would bring it to
the Union Pacific road. The line would
be through four of the wealthiest agri
cultural counties in the State, and thro'
all the river town? in Nebraska. There
should be no conflicting interests in
ibis matter, and every town and county
should enter into the work of securing
this line of road with all the zeal they
can command. The following proposi
lion to have a R. R. Convention we
clip from the Press, of Nebraska City
and we fully endorse it:
"We invite the attention cf cur ex
changes oi Nebraska, to the discussion
of the propriety of holdicg a Convert-on
of Delegates from the River coun
ties of, say, th County Cimmissioner.-
of each county and a certain number of
the citizens of each to meet at, say.
Nebraska City, in November next, to
devise ways and means to secure tht
building of a Railroad through the
counties of Richardson, Nemaha, Cass
ana Sarpy, to Omaha, and then North
ward as soon as possible. Now is thp
time to act. We may lay such a foun
dation as to secure government aid and
enlist the capital and enterprise of our
respective counties. The plan is feas
ible. What we want is co-operation,
Tnd this, a convention as suggested,
will probably secure."
,IVE IT TO THE.tt.
The Democratic journals of the
country are constantly on the alert to
catch a Republican doing something
that is net exactly proper, and then
they ' come down'" on him the best they
know how. That's right. We say,
"give it to them." The Republican
party are in favor cf rooting out nil
corruption, and we are glad to s.?e even
Cc pprheiid journals aiding us, although
they ore not laboring for the same pur
pose that Republicans are. It might
look to the public as though th?y were
opposed to rascality from principle if
they ever found a Copperhead or rebl
who does anything wrong but they do
not. Articles from Republican papers,
wherein corrupt Republican officials
are exposed, are often quoted in Cop
perhad journals, but you never see
anything in them against the men who
stole the government poor about six
years ago and then tried for four years
to strangle it.

PRESIDENTIAL. THREATS.
The Burlington Uawk-Hye &ays:
"The following Is from the Union, one
of Johnson's Washington pets, ot Sep
tember 20th. It supplies anoiber him
of what the usurper is now meditating
in view of that wonderful "reactiou "
his fl.ttterers tell him is going on
among the people. If Congress has
the temerity to attempt his impeach
ment "1 will go out of sight tn ihe
twinkling of an eye!'' Tnat is the
threat. We have no doubt that Andy
will make it good if he husjhe power.
v hether he will have it or not depends
upon the people. If we let him know
that we pr pose to execute our purpose
and not his, probably lie will think dis
cretion the bttter pari of valor."
CONGRESS IN AN ATTITUDE OF REVO
LUTION.
It seems to be a pretty well settled
conviciiun in political curies that imme
diately on the reassembling ot Con
gress, it will attempt to proceed with
the tertih'j work of the impeachment
o: the President. When there exists a
just and proper four.datiou for such a
metsure, no gi oil objection can be 111
teraosed. The President can be re
moved on "conviction of treason, bri
bery, and other high crimes and mis
demtanors." but he cannot be suspen
ded irom ihe exrcise of the functions
of his ofiice during trial, nor can he be
removed for the purpose of placing a
man in the executive chair who will
obey the behests of a Congressional
majority.
It is not treasonable to entertain dif
rerent poliicnl opinions. It is not a
"high crime and misdemeanor" to be a
patriot, and to attempt to preserve the
country from the inflictto'i of unjust,
illegal, and 'incon-iituiiunal laws. An
drew Johnson is not on'y called upon
to protect the Courts of tlie United
states tne rigMs and liberties or the
people but he has got to fonify and
en'rench ihe Presidential office. Con
gress wiil seek to u-urp Executive
owcr. The President has his remedy.
and he will b false to his great oat!
to defend the Constitution if he per
mits Congress thus to act. The peopl
have saved the country once. He can
call on them again. He is sure of such
a response as will be cure 'o make
usurpation and treason tremble.
The republic is not to be utterly de
s'royed while Andrew Johnson is Pres
ident. The "smoking flax and bruised
reeds" of Rndicali-m will be a tnemori
al and a warning to all who seek the
destruction of their country for the sake
of retaining politn al power. It is more
than probable that the issue will be made
Congress will go out of iht in the
twinkling cf an eye. It will find its
self calling in vain upon anything else
but infamy to hide it from indignati in.
The Constitution is to be preserved, end
Senators who have declared their con
victions beforehand will not sit in judg
ment upon Andrew Johnson! If it i
even niieninu-d the country r.tid
p-rp!e. mark our solemn warning and
word for it, will severely inquire and
know the reason v.li)!
i;i:eM5Iatiox.
There should be no dreaming ever
the impossibility of repudiation. North
ern copperheads nud "re constructed'
rebels will vote fur repudiation as soon
as there is an crportunny to make such
a vote efieciivt and they have the pow
er la cast it. There is hardly an intel
ligent southerner who actively partici
pated in cr sympathized with tlie
rebellion, but is waiting to dishonor our
national credit by such a vcte, or com
pel ihe assumption of lh confederate
drbt as an aiiermnive. The south and
its sy mpathuers at home and Europe
r re at work with tt is aim. At home,
in social intercourse, it is declared to
be their policy as frankly as were the
doctrine cf set-ession proclaimed and
enforced in 16G0. 'ihe loyal people
of the north shuold neither forget nor
ignore this fact It is loo significant to
be misinterpreted. Andrew Johnson
understands this purpose of the south,
and we fear, symp uhizes w;ih it If
not, the man'puU ious to which he
seems to submit at the hands of south
era men indicate whithi-r he is tending.
Whether he sympathizes with their
purpose or not may be immaterial ?o
long as he permits himself to be the
tool of those who do. Executive influ
ence is not small, and while Congress
may remain loyal to the country's lib
erties and honor, Andrew Johnson
may drive wedges that will split and
de-troy its power to resist the efforts of
the country's enemies in this direction.
We confess to some alarm for the
future of the credit of chts country.
The assaults of free traders at home
and abroad, the efforts of our enemies
abroad to drive as into the position of
serfs, and p'ace us on a level wiih their
slaves in India, by compelling us to
purchase their goods at iheir own price
and sell our grain to ihern for what
they choose to give, combined with tht
rankling hate of defeated rebels, and
the restiveness under taxation of cop
perheads. give double carte for vigi
lance. And this alarm is not based
upon mere surmises. It is an oofgrnwih
of facts that have logical s-cquence.
And we warn those of our readers
who have any regard for ourcredit and
enduring prosperity, that only by the
wisest counsel and most vigilant action
can the schemes of the repudiators be
thwarted, and the country saved from
dishonor, and our business prosperity
from prostration. Chicago Republican.
