SOT THAT HIM O I' 51 EX.
The Omaha Republican ex pi eces as
tonishment that Cass county went Re
publican after the doincr-s ut Weeping
Water. The Republican should bear in
mind that "there is a much difference
in people a3 in anybody," and that the
men who were so shamefully treated at
Weeping Water, and who refuse to n
ognize the proceeding. of that meeting
ad "Republican in form," arc not the
class of men to fly into a pet and cWl
Democrats to office when any kind of
proper men arc out as Republicans.
The shoe pinched on the other foot last
fall, and a ticket was got out with Yv'heat
ly Mickelwait on for Representative,
and everybody knows Mickelwait is one
of the most uncompromising Democrats
in the State ; yet we believe the Chair
man of the recent Weeping Water Con
vention and most of his political endors
ers voted and worked for Mickelwait as
against the lion. David McCaig, who
had served his party aud his country on
the tented field. The men whom Mr.
Clapp and Co. over-rode at Weeping
Water arc Republican, hence they vot
ed for Republicans for office. The Re
publican, needinevcr fear their giving
"aid and comfort to the enemy.

braska, and in Cass county, we Hhould
not forget that without good wagon
roads our Railroads arc of but little val
ue. What would a Railroad benefit
Plattsmouth if ehe were cut off from the
farming country if she had no wagon
roads over which to get the products of
our rich soiL Railroads carry these pro
ducts to foreign markets, but wagon
roads are an absolute necessity for col
lecting these products ready for thlp
ment As the railroad is soon to be in
operation to this city, both east and west,
it stands tho people in baud to look sharp
Ij after their wagon roads. We need a
great deal of work done, if the city and
country both would ' prosper. It is as
important to the one as the other. . Let
our County Commissioners look at this
matter at once,' and see that good thor
oughfares arccoustructed into every por
tion of the county. Liberty, Mt. Pleasant,
Avoca, the Weeping Water country, up
the Platte, all need good wagon roads,
and they need them now. .. It is the most
important thing the County Comniis--sioners
will have to attend to during the
pkjnjvn by J rosjHsrity of the en-
-tire county depend, in a great niwiir
ujon the thoroughfares to the different
sections of the country. We hope this
matter will receive not only the careful
consideration and action of the Couiuiis
fioncrs, but that the jieople of the differ
ent sections of country will a!.-o look after
and agitate this question of roads until
every locality is supplied.

On the Gth. of Septeuiljer last, Gen.
Duncan's cavalry captured a squaw, who
makes the following statement relative to
the killing of white men on the Beaver :
About the 20ja of August, 1S69,
whn cherries were first rip?, a band of
Indians, under, t Pawnee Killer' and
"Whistler,Ncros d the Republican to
move over toy.!eaver. Tlie crossing
was made between Freinchnian's Fork
and Red Willow river. Four young men
were far in advance. One of them came
back and reported the other three just
killed by some white men, and that
one white man had been killed by
them. These white men were not soldiers.
The squaws and children went at once
into the bushes, aud the men all went
on toward the Beaver, and did not couie
back until dusk. They said they had
killed five more white men and destroyed
two wagons, aud that the rest of the
white wen hid in some b'ashss. All the
animals the white men had were taken,
and their rations, of which they had
-very few. The Indians said no more of
this party.
This was about the time Mr. Buck
and party are supposed to have been in
that reion, and there is little doubt they
were the victims. The men who escaped
death at that time were probably picked
up by Indians afterward, as they would
certainly have been heard from ere this
had they escaped.

A iJidy WoTiaded ty an Arrs
The following particulars of an Indian
attack at Medicine Bow is from the Lara
ma Sentinel:
"Wd get the following particulars in
Bow, from Dr. Foos, who came down
from there this morning : The Indians
attacked the section men first, and after
a short skirmish they discovered Mr.
Crawford, his wife and two boys, aged
respectively fourteen and seventeen years
out about a half mile from the house'
looking for elfc. Thereupon the Indians
left the section men an I went for Mr. C.
and family. The Indians rode round
the party, discharging arrows and revol
ver shots at them for several minuites.
but as Mr. C. had a gun and showed
fight, thevsoon left and went to bis
house, which w as unprotected. They
took away and distroyod property to the
value of som. five hundred dollars
everything thj family had, leaving them
without bedding, clothing or provisions.
They emptied the feather leds and pack
ed clothin? and provisions in the tieks.
Mrs Crawford, a lady about fifty years
old, received a flesh wound in the arm,
after which fehc walked to Coma station,
three miles this side of the fight. The
Indians seemed to have no guns, but
had several revolvers and plenty of bows
and arrows. Mr. Crawford shot one of
their ponies. They numbered some
twenty-five in the baud.-'
m migration.
The extraordinary rush of immigrants
to this country daring the three months
ending June 30, of the present year, is
worth noting. The total number was
1 65.9S7 being a very large increase over
the same periods in X'revious years. The
class of immigrant, to.i, is unusually
pood. We find among them, for cram
j!e, i'iO clergymen, (15 physicians, art
ists, 5,559 mechanics, 333 bakers, 233
butchers, 74 seamstresses, 733 shoeutak
crs, 766 tailois, 1.05S uiasous, 1,518 of
miscellaneous trades, 560 clerks, 15.553
farmers, 4.225 laborers, 1.934 trader,
S, 103 mariners, 5.799 servants and 763
of other specified occupations. Again,
it is worthy of note that while Ireland
sends 2S.13S, "Great Britain" (mean
ing, we may suppose, England. Ireland
and Wales.) sends 33,574. Germany.
Austria and Prussia lead the list with
50,999. It is remarkable that the Scan
dinavian element is still strong, as, in
deed, it has now been for years, Norway,
Sweden and Denmark being credited for
the?c three month. with 20, 1 09. France
on the other hand, sends the strikingly
small number of 153, and Italy but 105.

The

ravages of these fires, and have n-t prop
erty to lose, these fire.; fecm pleasant,
but to the lonely settler in the vast un
bounded prairies there is something ter
rible in them. He knows that he is
liable to be surrounded at any moment
with the destroying element, and lo.-:e
not only his crops, farms and buildings,
but not utjf'requcnily do we hoar of lives
being lost, or persons crippled for life by
these uncivilized practices.
We hope that the good citizens of this,
and other prairie States, will discontinue
the practice of setting tire to tht prairies,
and that every one who is guilty of the
act be properly puni.-hed.
We are aware that many land owners
burn the prairies under the impression
that it will increase the next season's
crop of grass, and thus very frequently
are the cause of doing much damage to
their frien is and neighlors. frequently
destroying stacks of grain, fences, barns
and dv3l!iii&s. and fiequcntly the lives of
nn man 1 rings.
We are aware that iu many cases no
harm js meant by burning the prairies,
while in others it is the result of careless
ness, or a wilful and malicious determin
ation to destroy property. In some
caes prairies are set on lire by teamsters,
emigrants, etc. These persons .should
b warned of thi evil jr;.-u its' of these
"f.?JlliclS5, anT'if 'perSTsioJ" in', properly

We are folly convinced that there is

Another advantage to be gained bv

V
lVbat ire to lMi;.t Fruit Trees.
I am fast coming over to the opinion
acd practice of suoh men as Phuenix,
Qulnn, and other practical horticultur
ists, that "the younger our trees are at
the time of transplanting, the better
their 'health and growth, aud the better
will thoy. bear fruit. '
A great many think that a three or
four year old i:te will bear sooner than
one two years younger, and the nursery
man eaa testify well to the demand for
trees for "immediate fruiting ;" but I
con.-.ider it a costly, unsatisfactory prac
tice. Nearly every tree at that age
looses ly necessity a large portion of its
roots by transplanting from the nursery
tam a neaithy,-progressive growth, the
top must be shortened iu, in same pro
portion. sometime quite seveie'y, and
by the time this is completed, the tree is
really little or no better than one a
year or two younger. It happens, how
ever, in the majority of cases, that the
tipes are neither well planted nor well
pruned, and the first jears growth after
planting in its new home is weak, sickly,
stunted, with the least possible prospect
of fruit.
To remedy all this. I say choose
young trees, not over o;;e or two years
old. They are in the long run the be.-t
investment, and prove more remunera
tive. They cot less at the nursery ; the
freight is less than one-half; the trees
lose few or no roots ; they are more easily
set out, saving Ialor and expensive oper
ation on the ground, and then they com
mence continuous growth, whitli experi
ences few or none of the drawbacks in .-i-dent
to older trees, and at last award the
owner with "luxuricnt crops of really
choice fruit.
It may seem hard to any man to wait
five or six years before they can get re
turns from his investments ; but he will
lind at the end of that time that his one
3'ear old trees are better in every respect
than his four year old fancies. This
rule can be safely applied to all standard
trees apples, pears, plums, peaches,
apricots, etc. In no case would I rec
onisiicnd trees over two j'ears of age.

-Father Ily-
Nev York. October 19. Judge

found guilty of practicing extortion and
blackmail upon citizens who had cases
before his court, and was reman Jed for
sentence.
The Tribune learned yesterday, from
Father Hyacinthe, that ho desires it to
le understood that he is still a Roman
Catholic. He has never been, he says,
an ultra montane, is not now, -aud never
will be ; but h- denies that there is any
reason lor identifying ultra montane
with the Catholic church. He indulges
the firm hope that the council will not,
as is commonly anticipated, consolidate
the ultra montane theories, and consti

that on the contrary, it will have the
door made open for those who. like him
self, have been throughout life the de

In the same counties last year Grant

35 or S6,o.)o, that is if the unreported
counties have given majorities in pro
portion to the ones named in our e.sti
mates of yesterday of the next Legisla

Secretary of Wur.
The despatches announce the appoint
ment cf Maj. Gen. Belknap, of Iowa, to
the position of Secretary of War. Our
first knowledge of General Belknap was
as a Colonel of the 15th Iowa Infantry,
serving in the army of the Tennessee.
We presume we will hear some of our
Democratic exchansrs a4in? him. as they
did of Robeson, '"who is Belknap?" If
they had served in the Aruiy of the Ten
nessee they would have known him as an
officer who had the utmost confidence of
Grant, Sherman and McPherson in bis
capacity and integrity. Nebraska, City
Chronicle.
The London Times thus editorially re
fers to the recflit financial upheavel in
Wall street :
There may be circum?tauees in the
financial position of the United States
authorizing so glaring a departure from
sound rules of public economy ; but it is
difficult to deny that a mere struggle of
gamblers by an act of the government is
magnified into an event of national im
portance. If Mr. Bout-well had pre
served, more money would have changed
hands, more fortuues made or inarred,
other brokers gone mal abscouded or
committed suicide, the threat against
Fisk might have been executed. It is
not easy to decide whether this will lc
for good or evil. It might have allayed
speculative excitement, sobered gamb
ling madness, or weaned some helpless
dupea from the Exchange. The lesson
will not be altogether lot-t. But had the
lesson gone to the end it might have
been more imprc ive, and its precepts
enhanced by a higher cost.
At Reno. Mon. Frederick Sehmadeke

graps and all their courting was done
by letter. Finally it was arranged j
that that the' should marry, and the
woman was sent fjr, and went ail the
way out there to mnrry 3 man she had
never seen, and both were exceedingly
well pieced, fhe woman thinks her
husband much handsomer than would
appear from his photograph, and the
man swears that his wife is twice as hand
some as her picture.
