Never wire truer words uttered by any
man than are contained in the following
brief sentence, which we clip from an
'editoriabarticle in the Omaha Republi
can. We make no application of the
truths, but leave that for each individual
to do as seems to him most proper :
"The Republican party is no appan
age to any individual, and the attempt
of mine few persons in this State to ar
ray it into personal factions is at variance
with its spirit and all its principles.
Troubl comes wherever the personal
policy is attempted."
WHOLESALE HOLMES.
There is demand in I'lattsmouth for at
lat a half dozen large wholesale estab
lishments, besides a large increase in
the retail establishments. J here is a
scope of country two hundred railes in
length and not less than fifty to seventy
five miles in width that would to-day
bein? drawing every dollar of its supplies
from I'lattsmouth if we only had the
capital to supply it. We venture to -Bay
that no point in the West offers the same
i nducemcnts for the establishment of a
fnw heavy wholesale houses as does our
own city. Whea we say wholesale we
do not mean simply a house where a box
of aoap and a bolt of domestic may be
purchased at a trifle less than retail
price, but on establishment where
country merchant can come and purchase
bis tntire f-tock of goods at eastern pri
ce with freight only added. It require
capital for an establishment of this kind,
but it will pay; and we cannot see why
it will not pay even better than the same
investment would in a city like Chicago,
where rents, fuel, etc. arc much more
tzpeosive than in I'lattsmouth.
IMMIGRATION.
Fillmore Co , Dec. 18, lsTO.
Editor-Herald : There appears to
exist, at the present time, a strong de
sire, in this State to aid the homesteader.
Various methods have been proposed to
accomplish the desired object. It is
thought by many that if present mate
rial aid is offered the homesteader it will
inuduce an increase of immigration, and
the State will thereby gain an extensive
producing population. Thi, doubtless,
is a fixed fact. The question necessarily
arises, what shall be done, and how shall
we do it? We would suggest, first, what
are the wants and indispensable necessi
ties of the parties whom we propose to
assist? Inquire of those in our midst
who for th. past three years have worked
early and late who have been driven to
the verce of despair ! Those who have
endured nr.told pangs of grief, hunger
and cold, and from whose heart the last
ray of hope had almost died out, yet
w bo ding to their homesteads with the
faint hope that one year more will drive
gaunt want from their door. Ak the
homsteaders what help they would like,
and listen to their answer. First, we
want mime place where we can procure
provisions, farming implements and a
small bill of furniture (say stove, table,
chairs, Ac), with the privilege of paying
for the same from the products of our
farms in three, four and five years. No
independent, industrious man with a
team would ask more. If there comes
one that has no team, arrangements
could be made to obtain one for him on
time. Second, let those interested in
the development and settlement of our
State, firm an immigrant aid society;
let each member pay in say $50 to $100.
The amount thus raised should be placed
at interest, to be drawn. ay quarterly,
or monthly as needed. Or, better still,
let each township or county invest their
proportion of the sum thus raised in
such goods as the homesteader mav need
a clerk be appointed by the stockhold
ers, with instruction to do a general
mercantile business, receiving nay in
cash and produce, where the purchaser
can pay. When he cannot let the clerk
rive credit to a ccnain exteut, to be
paid as above specified. The goods
should be sold at prices that will cover
costs, losses, Sec Let the shares be a?
low as $10, if you please. At ten dol
Lrs every man in the State would be
come a stockholder in "The Union
Store." If the capital is found to be
insufficient, let the State loan, for ten
years, with or without interest, say $25,
OoO or more, to be delivered to the seve
ral counties, and by them expe: ded. It
should be the duty of the clerk to keep
Coated and not let iwrsons run up large
ills that there would be no probability
of their paying at a specified time. You
see, sir, that all that would be lost in
this process would be the iuterest on the
principal, and that would more than be
made up in the advantages derived from
the extra imigration it would induce.-
The railroads in this and neighboring
States, ia consideration of the princely
donations they have received in lands
" and bonds, and the advantages desived
from an increase of population and local
business, would doubtless cooperate with
us in this plan, in a reduction of fare
and freights. A plan similar to the
y above has been adopted in other States
and has worked admirahly. Why not in
Nebraska? ffe see but one objection.
It would materially effect existing busi
ness houses in our lirge towns for a time.
If any person in the State can propose
a better plan, we are ready f receive it,
and xritndraw. We would like to hear
from others. L am sanguine if some
- such plan as the one suggested be per
' fected and carried out, we would not
have to depend on Europe for our set
tlers, but that thousands of men, now
' struggling to earn the daily bread their
children need, living in the grert cities
of the East, would be glad to avail theui
wlves of the advantages thus offered,
"and in securing homes which persever
ance and energy would soon make com
fortablefind for themselves and child-
ren that health and strength which they
never would live fo enjoy in their con
tracted tenements." Ij.1L Warner.

For
Front the Lincoln Journal CCtb.
On SatunJuy eveninjthe Journal con
tained the following news item :
"Lincoln has a new citizen. Hon- J
Sterling Morton found the door of a
building at the Salt works open and took
possession, carried in his bed, and has
nt fnr bis fainilv. He will await an
action of ejectment to test the right of

We little thought when we inserted
the above unsuspecting and un-sensation-al
paragraph, that it chronicled the in
ception of a conflict that should shake
the Commonwealth of Nebraska from
center to circumferanee
Yet history or somebody else has re
corded the fact that "Largo streams
from little fountains How."
It appears that the first intimation
the public had of this transfer
ofthe salt basin to the noted Sterling,
was the Journal item, though Messrs,
Green & Hebard, who supposed they
were in peaceful possession of the pro
perty, heard early in the afterr.oon that
Morton had gone upon the pr.-mi.-Ci
which were in the temporary custody of
Mr. Donovan, who had left the key in
the door while superintending the re
moval of a stove and other furniture into
the building. It doth pretty strongly
appear that Mr. I), was in secret "ca
hoots" with his fiiend Morton, having
agreed to take care of the premises for
the privilege of occupying the dwelling
house until sprine. At any rate in a few
hours after the ley had been given to
him, he reported tnat Morton had ousted
him and was running the ranche.
About 9 or 10 o'clock in toe evening a
complaint was made charging Mr. Mor

EXITED M ATHS KKMATOR.
For the past four months the proprie
tors of the Omaha 7Vi7'ie have allowed
a few old politicians to use its columns
almost to tho exclusion of everything
else, to the vilification of the Hon. John
M. Thayer. They have acted on the as
sumption that their daily issue would be
entirely useless in this community if it
did not contain dirty and low-flung de
nunciations of this gentleman. In all
that time they have sounded the depths
of mean and disgusting personalities.
They have imagined that this kind of
journalistic tactics would annihilate Sena
tor Thavcr and kill him off fur all time to
come.
Hut it has become generally under
stood throughout the State that they
have entirely overshot the mark, and
their shafts of malice, so far from in
juring Senator Thayer, have only re
coiled upon those who have induced this
little sheet to be used for such vile pur-
)0ses; and the latter will discover, if it
i.-ts not already, that a newspaper which
allows itself to be used thus as a foot
ball of designing politicians for the abuse
of honored members of the same party
loses all influence and respect in this tree
West. Not one of those who have
penned editorials for this sheet and in
duced the known editor to father them,
would have siened their own signatures
to them and let all the world know who
actually did write them for any considera
tion whatever ; still, if the real editor
wan foolish enough to rather them they
were willing to use him for baac pur
poses.
Alter ail these futile enoris whicu tr.e
Tribune has thus far made to "run" the
Senatorial election, we would advise the
little sheet to turn its attention to some
thing else, and begin immediate'y to
look elsewhere for little crumbs. It
need not flatter itself that anything it
may say or do will have one particle of
influence one way or the other.
The Republic n members of the leg
islature are nearly all old settlers of t hi
State, and have known Senator lhayer
through a long military and senatorial
career, and feel competent to the task of
deciding tor themselves who shall and
who shall not be our next United States
Senator, and will not delegate the matter
or transfer the job to a little newspaper
which is a stranger among us, and knows
nothing of the wants or desires of this
people or the character and ability of
the candidates
After all that has been published by
that little sheet, St nator Thayer to day
stands higher in the esteem and confi
dence of the Republican party than ever
before, and although in the eyes ot a few
ho may not be just what the.v would
desire in all respects, still, taking all
things into consideration, it is generally
believed that he would serve its material
interests and represent the political ma
jority of this State in the Senate as well
(it not more tmcicutly) as any other
man from this State, and we believe he
will be re-elected. Omaha Republican.
The Omaha Tribune wants to know if
we, among others, are in favor of a man
for United States Seuator who has con
nived at fraud Ac. After deliberation
we arrive at the conclusion that a party
asking such a question, who have them
selves connived at frand and "owned the
corn," has, to say the least, enough
brass to do, under ordinary circumstances
enough to supply Morton for a whole
lecture. Tecumseh Chieftain.

PLATTSMOUTII, NEBRASKA, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 29, IS70
Our neighbor of the Ashland Times
seems to think that the building of a
railroad up the Wahoo by the B. & M.
Co. would not be of any particular bene
fit to the people of Saunders county,
and he further indicates that the H. &
M. folks have no intention of building
such line of road. Well, that all may
he so, but we would be pleased to have
the Times cite a single instance where
the B. & M. folks have spoken officially
in relation to any matter for a sinister
pnrposc. We have always supposed
this company stood first-class, not only
with western rncn, but with capitalists of
the eastern States and Europe. We
think the Times is piling it on a little
steep when it insinuates that the B. &
M. folks have no higher ambition than
to attempt a deception on the people of
Saunders county. They have a reputa
tion that is worth more than all Saun
ders county could ai l any road ; and
then, we don't think the B. & M. folks
have ever asked Saunders county to aid
them a cent in the construction of said
road, and probably they do not intend to.
Will the Times please let them build a
road if they deire so to do ?

The debt of Nebraska is comparatively
light, but a portiou of it in the form of
State Warrants are floating around and

There is no good reason for this condi

credit of the State without any benefit
srisine. it seems' clear that measures
should be adopted to relieve us of this
drawback. . Let there be a bill passed by
the next Legislature funding all the war
rants now out, after which the present
rate of taxation will be ample to pay, on
demand, all expenses of the State. Ten
per cent, bonds equal to the present war

BY TELEGRAPH.
Bordfaux, December 24.
In an official dispatch from Lille, on
the night of the 2'ii Gen. Faidherbe
announces to the Minister of War that
his army engaged the enemy at Font
Noyellc that da'. The battle lasted
from 11 a. m. until 6 p. m. For the
greater portion of the time it was an ar
tillery duel, whi'di finally terminated by
a charge from the French infantry along
the whole line. The enemy were driven
back, and the Freuch remained masters
of the field.
Advices from Paris to the evening of
the 2-d, received by balloon, which land
ed near Nuita, say there was no engage
ment that day, but ft general battle was
regarded as imminent.
The journals estimate the losses of the
French in onuhats on the 21st to be
about S00 killed and wounded, and speak
in glowing terms of the great co ifidenco
displayed by the national guard.
A cable dispatch from a private source
in London of the 24th. is a confirmation
of the iccent succe-tful sortie from Pa

the capture of several strong posit'.-ns ;
but yesterday's announcement, from
French sources, that two divisions of the
armv of the Loire had effected a junction,
appears to be without foundation. In
fact, the general situation is encouraging
for the trench.
