The Omaha Herald has a long and
spiteful editorial calling Hitchcock and
Cunningham hard names, and again re
iterating his "belief" that Cunningham
is a bad, corrupt man. This means that
.the Herald is driven to the wall. The
raking fire of the Nebraska Herald,
has driven it to abandon squibs and
quirks and "perpendiculars," and come
down on a column and a half editorial.

Our Saunders Co. Letter.
Eldred, August IS, 1S72.
Editor Herald : During the thun
der storm of Friday morning. lGth inst.
a stack of oats, belonging to Mr. Otto
Ostenberaj, residing upon section two,
Stocking Precinct, was struck by light
ning and totally consumed. Fortunately
for Mr. Ostenberg, he succeeded in
saving three wheat stacks, standing in
close proximity to the fire. Loss, some
300 bushels of o&ts.
The Wahoo 3Iills, owned by Messrs.
Ray & Flor, which were destroyed last
spring by high water, are being rebuilt,
on a safer basis, and will be completed
and ready for business in a few days.
Mr. R?y deserves much praise, for the
energy and perseverance displayed, in
getting these much needed mills ready
for the large crop of wheat which the
country has this year produced. Suc
cess toJiim.
The new mill of J. F. Roll & Co. is
now completed, and turning out an ex
cellent article of flour. Mr. Roll has
been quite unfortunate in losing two par
tially completed dams by high waters.
But, as usual, perseverance has won.
Our farmers are rejoicing over a boun
tiful linrvptit nf small trains, the most
, , ij.
of which has been secured, in exceilcnfc
condition, and for which they have a fair
prospect of obtaining reinueerative pri
ces. Corn, although re2rally late
planted, looks well. The la'te hot, dry
weather, had begun toiell upon some
field?, but the late rains have stopped
all of that, and now the prospect of a
bountiful crop is excellent.
Some few "carpet-baggers," not hav
ing the fear of defeat before their eyes,
and caring less for the interests of the
country than the gratification of their
cupidity, are quietly circulating Petitions,
asking for a re-location of the seat.
Verily ! verily 1 the end is not yet.
Our peeple are watching with deep in
terest, tho various moves upon the Rail
road checker-board of the State, and
earnestly hoping that some of them may
inure to our benefit.
Saunders must have more railroad fa
cilities, to enable her to move her im
mense surplus crop. Shall her farmers
be longer compelled to cross the Platte
river in search of a market? Railroad
men, we pause for a reply.
In political matters there is as yet but
little excitement. The Grant and Wil
son current, like our own Wahoo, runs
clear, deep and strong, sleeping before
it the thin film of "Greeleyism," which
whilom appeard on the surface. The
noble, manly and able letter of that
6tardy old "Democrat," George Becker,
of Binghampton, N. Y., is a squelcher
on Greeleyism. No honest Democrat,
after reading it, could vote for Mr. Gree
ley. Of more local interest is the question
of a County Commissioner, in the Third
District. Mr. A. Johnson, II., the pres
ent incumbent, like his great prototype,
A. Johnson, I.cf Presidential fame,
having been peculiarly successful in ren
dering himself unpopular. Few men
could be more successful in ignoring all
law, and crockodile like, taking the bit
in his teeth, nd running a fine county
to tho verge or bankruptcy, in twelve
short months, than he. MeDe ! mcne !
Tekell upharism ! appears to be written

THE UCEKSS SYSTELI.
We have a law prohibiting the sale o
liquor on Sunday yet, do these men
who have proved their good moral char
acter refrain from selling intoxicating
liduors on Sunday? According to the
best evidence wo ha,ve, liquor was sold
in more places than one on Sunday, the
10th day cf August, A. D. 1872, and m
one place they were gambling for the
drinks. Shall we vindicate the law, aid
punish those who willfully and obstinate
ly set at defian:c the law after proving
their good moral character. It is pre
sumed, at least, that men after they
have established their character accord
ing to law would not violate tho law by
selling or giving liquor to minors, but,
is not this done every day?
The man who has to prove his good
moral character before he can engage in
a lawful business, ought to be willing to
abide by the law, and not take advan
tage of the ten free holders who have
shown him great kindness in stepping
forward to vindicate his good moral
character.
We are opposed to the license law.
The object of good government is de
feated, the intelligence of the people in
suited, and the nchts of every cit zon
violated.
What do we understand by the license
law? 1st, it is wrong to sell without
license, 2d, governments have a right to
prohibit it entirely. Is it not an out
rage upon common sense that vice and
crime can be restrained by making them
the subjects of protection ? But say one
of the enthusiastic admirers, there is the
revenue. The revenuo from what ?
widow's tears, and orphan's groans, and
drunkard's blood. To make a revenue
out of these is a dreadful commentary
upon a christian and civilized country.
That which poisons the fountains of
all purity, the iniquities which time can
not repair. Fresh criminals come forth
every day to mourn . over, and punisli,
and pray for. Yet, we elevate this
prince to the rank of a civil functionary
of places of honor, trust, and profit.
Our legislators are often the "body
guard" of the demon intemperance
commissioning him for the publio good
to pour the stream of burning lava into
society. Against the demon oi intem
perance, tliat which is opposed to the
best interests of man for time and eter
nity, we wage an unceasing warfare.

LYON'S KATHA1R0N,
For Pref erving'and Beautifying the Human Hair
To Prevent its Falling Ct and Turning Gray.
A well-preserved Head bf Hair, in a person of
middle age, at once bespeaks refinement, elo
eance, health and beauty. It may truly be
called Woman's Crowning Glory, while men
are not insensible to its advantages and charms.
Few things are more disgusting than thin,
frizzly, harsh, untamed Hair, with head and
coat cevered with Dandruff. Visit a barber
and you feel and look like a new man. "This is
what LYON'S KATIIAIRON will do all the
time. Tho charm which lies in well placed
Hair, Glossy Curls, Luxuriant Tresses, and a
Clean Head, is noticeable and irresistable.
Sold by all Druggists and Country Stores.
