If the Judge rrj ' resent his constituents then of course he's right. . - ACT UlOfS TItADE. A Mr. Kingsbury and. Mr. Bray, made a curious trade the other day; Kingsbury sells Bray 320 acres of land for 7,000 bushels of wheat, payable in annual payments of 1,000 bushels fcat-h, rtml interest annually, also in wheat; and if Bray fails t5 meet the payment at any time, he forfeits all previous payments. . The Anti-Teiiiperahce ticket was elected In Bronnville. In Nebraska City the temperance candidate got 50 votes. In Seward, an anti-temperance ticket was elected, and in Lincoln a temperance Mayor, and rather an anti temperance Council. Xu issue on that score, in our town. "The people" elected a Mayor here, so they said. CASS COUNTY COAI- Mr. Jones, living fourteen miles south of l'lattsmouth, brought into our office, on Friday, the largest chunk of genuine Xehraska (.Cass County) coal ive have seen yet. It came from his farm, and the rein is l'l to 20 inches thick, anil growing thicker and better 11 the time. Tl ey are down forty feet and still a going for coal. Hur rah! Ilip-IIip-IIurrah! That beats Xast. OBITUARY Pirn April 1st, 174, at Tremont. III., of Consumption, Frank Kipp, aged 80 years. Mr. Kipp was an old friend, and it is w ith re.il pain we announce his early death. Born in Tax. well Co., 111., he came to Nebraska in 1808, and settled near West Point, Cuming county. He was elected to the Legislature in '70, and served faithfully and true. At the time of his death he was a member if the Banking firm of Bruner & Kipp, West Point. We have sixteen different essays on the Temperance question, from as many different friends throughout the ounty; We desire to give all a chance that we can, and are as liberal as our columns will permit. We have pub lished notices of organizations and meetings this week, but long articles i-iust of necessity be crowded out. We can not publish all that are sent us; it would take several papers as large as the IIluald to do this, and to publish one and not all would seem unfair and partial. Be patient. The temperance cause is doing well enough, and ad vancing as fast as sound reason will admit. Mr. Thomas Kennard is out in a long letter on the .Swamp Land business. The Mter is lengthy, or we should pub lish it. "Tom." gives some good ideas on our right to obtain these lands and the senseless folly of the howl that has been made abont the business. The New York Tribune publishes a speech by Senator Sumner, which he proposed to deliver in '71, right after Mr. Motley was removed from the Ministry to England; but which he himself afterwards suppressed and never did deliver. Now, after Sumner is dead, the Tribune publishes this for gotten sjeech. Haw have the mighty fallen? In Greeley's day no such meanness would have been allowed. It it severe on the administration. A RELIABLE IIIVIOKY OF THE FARMERS' MOVEMENT. The Ground. swell. A History of the origin, aims, and progress of the Farmers' Movement. Embracing an authoritative account of the Farmers' Clubs, Oranges, etc.; a full discussion of the Transportation question and other grievances; and a history of Industrial Education in the United States, together with sketches of the lives of prominent leaders, etc., etc., etc. By Hon. Jonathan Periam, Editor Western Rural, Vice Presi dent 111. State Board of Agriculture, etc, etc. Published by Haunaford & Thompson, 13 E Washington St. Chi cago. Thia work giTes evidence of careful preparation, and is evidently a genuine affair, authentic and reliable. We no tice that Hon. W- C. Flagg, President of the Illinois State Farmers' Associa tion, furnishes a highly interesting chapter on the Transportation question. This is followed by a still longer and decidedly peppery contribution from the pen of J. W. Midgeley, Esq., Presi dent's Secretary of N. W. 11. 11., Chica go, presenting the railroad side. Mr. Periam then reviews the whole subject In four strong chapters, whick fairly bristle with facts and figures. The author is evidently master of the subject. He has also obtained in valuable assistance from prominent leaders in the movement, many of whom have endorsed the book in high ly commendatory letters, which, how ever, we have not space to copy from the publishers' circular. The Groundswell is a fairly printed and handsomely bound volume of 576 Crown Octaro pages. The illustra tions aro 107 in number, of which eight are original portraits. The pub lishers are well known for promptness and reliability, and have undonbtedly made a great hit. Thousands of peo ple will buy this book, who would not think of investing a cent in any other. It is sold bv Distributors, (sometimes t called agents) who oi.iam iuv uook ut rect from the publishers and bring it direct to the customer's very door. We see that the publishers are widely advertising for more "Agents," and for the benefit of such of our readers as may wish to correspond with them we prive their address in full: Hannaford & Thcrapsou, 193 East Washington JOURNALISTS AND GENTLEMEN. We clip the following very elegant reference to our citizens from the Plattsmoth Herald edited by Mr. J. A. MacMurphy: You oulit to have seen the gaze of astonish ment those Oinultogs bestowed on our people. It ought to be a matter of congratu lation to those who take pleasure in the advancement of civilization, to know that Mr. MacMurphy has at last had an opportunity to attend a liter ary entertainment, and it is to be hojed that he will continue this prac tice until he learns not to insult his readers with utterances so far beneath the dignity of an editor and a gentle m an. Hep ublica n. Well, Mr. Republican, we did not think you were so tender-footed, and you must surely have been taking les sons in good editorial manners of our namesake, over the way, to pen so un gentlemanlya criticism on so slight an occasion. Mr. MacMurphy takes pleas ure in informing the Republican that he has attended very many literary entertainments in these United States, before he ever had the pleasure of reading the Rejublican, when as a matter of fact, he could not have at tended such entertainments in Omaha. Plainly, Mr. Republican, no one not purposely inclined to find fault or con scious of deserving a left-handed com pliment would ever take offence at our language in that article, ami if you can only quote two or three lines "from a long article to our disadvantage we would thank you to let them alone en tirely. If you cannot remember the many kind words this editor has said for Omaha and the number of times he has helped fight your battles you need not insult the real friends we have in Omaha by misrepresenting us basely and falsely by giving three lines of a long humorous article plainly showing on its face that it was written in a joking manner, as if it were a sol emn and deliberate insult to the citi zens of Omaha. For Shame, Republican now pub lish the whole article and if any sen sible person in Omaha is offended, we will apologize, making this much of an explanation, now, that the word "O ma hogs" is not of our coinage at all, and is a word that has gone the rounds of the Press for some time, and was cer tainly used by us carelessly and good humoredly, and with no thought or in tent, but to joke our own people and the Omahaa' as well. This much to our friends in Omaha. To you, Mr. Republican, who are so touchy over a joke, w beg leave to speak more stern ly. You talk of insults. Will you turn back to your files and read an editorial you wrote at the time the Platte Biver Bridge was completed, and the B. & M. changed its base basely for us to Omaha. Without any provocation at all, aud for no earthly use, you taunted us with being "on a side track," gloried over our dis comfiture, and made sport of our feel ings about the change at Oreapolis. Now, Mr. Editor, this people had done you no harm, and the Platte bridge might have been of great benefit to Omaha in a pecuniary and mercantile point of view, had it not been for your editorial which turned numbers of our merchants from your doors, who swore they would trade in Afric;fr-before leaving a dollar in Omaha. ?c . Yon have seen fit to dragfyrefore the community, by name, (anopr un journalistic, and shall we "jjii un gentlemanly trick"), for the thoVitless use of an uncouth word, toiry the most of it, but one in every day ise as applied to Omahaiaus; aud we now arraign you. as an editor, for a and unbusiness-like editoji.i matter beyond our contfoi. which our people then feut and one which cost OmahV ; will and dollars and 'T mton i mt a lfcj on 1 1 good ii our joking remarks hurt no o t ver- sensitive, or mistaken as i itf; real motive and tenor.

THE CURRENCY 'l r t The Senate at last saw ti) tr . crease and fix the circulating mediu i this country at 8400,000,000. ()j i ,ifon is very much divided on the expediency of this move. No party division could be made on it and while the general vote shows that the South and West, by their 1 representatives at least, de manded an increase of the currency, the eastern and middle States thought they had enough; and just here the trouble lies. They have undoubtedly enough currency in New England and New York, and we have not. This pa per has been opposed to the issue of more currency for this very reason. We believe that the country has now enough for her wants could it be dif ferently distributed. We who are in debt, they say, and have to make bricks without straw every day, that is, im prove and build up our vast prairies, need and demand more currency, while they of the east who have farms opened, towns built, roads made, improvements furnished by former generations, for this present one to occupy, have a sur plus of this "fraud" and "lie" we out west call greenbacks. They forget that their farmers have houses, and barns, and granaries al ready built and paid for long ago; that they have schools, and oor houses, and jails, and county houses, and, in fact every kind of public and private edifice absolutely necessary to carry on the business of their country with, and that we must create them here. Either we must go in debt for them or we must stop our civilization and cease our improvements. These are facts, and they make a strong case for the south and west. The south had her industries destroyed by the war, and the west ha3 everything to build. Then all the factories are in the east; so far, tit least, for every dollar of im provements leyond sod-houses or adole barns, we send e;ist for the ma terials. All the Insurance companies are east, lxth Fire and Life. The headquarters of the railroads are east, and all their earnings, over and alove expenses, are sent cast From every ?ovr? and pwrtr f we drained. We have asserted before, and shall now, that if, the great States of New York or Pennsylvania were subjected to the same drain, pecuniarily, as Ne braska is, they would be bankrupt in a few years. Nothing but the influx of emigration and the vast productive ness of our soil has kept us above water in this west. Opposed, as we are, to any basis but gold and silver for our currency, at present, we yet see exactly how and why the west and south may demand more currency, and we propose to de mand laore, and that is civil treatment of our case, and a few less charges of theft and dishonesty from New York and New England gentlemen. CIVIL WAR. The New York Herald threatens us with civil war if we persist in a de mand for more currency. We" could afford to laugh at this threat, consid ering the source; but many of the ceived the approval of the Senate Ju eastern papers accuse us of dishonesty dietary Committee, with a good pros and a desire to repudiate our debts to pect of its passage at this session of the east. When they draw it exra i Congress. It wines out the. -nneeded simple act of justice to the brave de fenders of our country. "Aa Act, authorizing pre-emptors or settlers upon homesteads to alienate portions of their pre-emptions or home steads for certain public purjHjses, viz: for school and church purposes, and for right of way to railroad across the same." "An Act amendatory of the pre emption and homestead laws." This act authorizes the settler who has filed a homestead or pre-emption claim, and lost his or her right under the same, except it be by sale of such right, to file a new claim. "An Act, to sell a portion of the Otoe, Omaha and Pawnee Indian Res ervations." This act looks to the early removal of said Indians from tUe State, and the settlement of their lands. "An Act, to abrogate a portion of the treaty with the Sioux Indians, con cluded April 29th, 18G8." This bill is not yet a law, but has re- num tnej- say we want to "steal our way upward at their expense. Let us examine these points. This same N. Y. Herald says : "The West is not sensitive as to hon est'. Honesty is a dull virtue that will not thrive in the broad and breezy area of the prairies, to which nature has denied the glory of frees in order that the world might more readily ad mire the freemen of those plains. " Not sensitive to honesty? Have we ever bred a Tweed ? Did we ever raise a Fisk or a Gould on the treeless plains? In tbe breezy areas of the prairies a Tammany ring could not ex ist; but it did in New York city where "nature has denied the glory" of com mon honesty and good sense to public men, and her principal newspaper edit ors. Honesty was indeed a "dull vir tue" when the New York Herald re ceived abont TWO HUNDRED TnOL'SAXD DOLLARS of the corruption fund, from old Tam many, and tried to get a bill allowed for more. "Not sensitive to honesty" on the treeless praire! No, we are not sensitive to your kind of honesty. The prairies would indeed need trees and houses to cover its blushes after such an expose of its honesty. Again, this model paper says: "Least of all will the people of the thirteen States who gained their free dom from "England in their infancy consent to become a mere fringe on the garment of a semi-barbarous empire, occupying the Mississippi Valley. Yet that is what the Atlantic States titust become if the legislation now begun in Congress is followed to its legiti mate consequences." "Semi-barbarous!" that is good, in face of the Erie railroad farces for years; when armed bands of ruffians obstructed the road and seized the olli cers, and bought the courts, and acted in a highly civilized manner for New York until the semi-barbarous West and the united half civilized world ?) put in so strong a protest that New York was at last afraid and ashamed to let such high handed outlawly go on much longer, and then only when on ruffian, of civilization had shot Jus brother ruffian, who carried the brains of New York in his head, could they really conquer this virilization which had been growing on them for years. Semi-barbarous! Show us an other city in the Union that for three lays was under the control of the low est mob. and which allowed the blood of hundreds of innocent and utterly defenceless citizens to How in its streets and alleys, to this day unpunished and unavenged. Show us a treeless prairie State that has burned Orphan Asylums and clubbed working-men in peaceful assemblage to discuss their wrongs. Honesty and civilization! (lod (re serve us now and ever more from the honesty and civilization of New York City and the New York Herald. Ae accept our non-sensitiveness to honesty and our semi-barbarous record, Mr. Herald. Can you accept yours? Moreover, we accept the results of civil war; and if you force us to make you indeed the "fringe on the gar ment" of civilization please don't squeal for charity and the means of subsistence from these semi-barbarous farmers of th treeless prairies. A MOOD K ECO CD- Indian territory" in Nebraska. "An appropriation of fifty thousand dollars, to establish a Post on the Loup." passed the Senate, and will probably pass the House. This will give security to the northwest frontier. "An Act, to settle title to land be longing to old Ft. Kearnev, near Ne braska City." "An Act to provide a Court House and Postofhce at Lincoln, Nebraska, and to appropriate 81:30,000 therefor." "Appropriation to complete Court House and Postoffice at Omaha." We may safely add that no material interest in the State has been over looked or undervalued, and all this so quietly that the masses have scarcely realized all the changes effected in this short time. Verily, the workers are gaining on the speech-makers. GRAIN RAISED IN NEBRASKA IN THE YEAR 173. Wheat 3.2IS.OOO IluwheU, Corp 4.029.000 )atH---JH..730 -Karley 25,250 Kj-e 105.H50 1). II 1V1IT.KL.KR.

We take both pride and pleasure in calling attention to the splendid record made by Senator Hitchcock during his three years service in Congress. It is a record of faithful survive, of practi cal work, written in deeds rather than words, upon the pages of the Statute Last evening tne ladies in full force appeared in the Council Chamber, and argued their petition to rai.se the li cense to $1,000. A vote was taken to raise the same to 8500, and proved a tie. The Mayor having the casting vote, voted against interfering with the present rate. The Council Chamber was crowded, packed and reeking with people, tem perance and anti-temperance. FROM ASHLAND. AslILANT), NKH., ) .

H ebron Journal. LETTER FROM MT. PLEASANT. Mt. Pleasant, 'ass Co., Neb., k April 11, 1874. Editor Helald: The ladies of this neighborhood have organized a Woman's Temperance Prayer Meeting, lKoks. rather than those of the Con- anJ rel'tfully request that you will gressional Globe a record giving ; publish this notice of it, that our noble proofs of effort, crowned with success, j siste1" this county, and elsewhere, for the promotion of the best interests of the State. In addition to many local acts appli cable to Nebraska only, the Senator has secured the passage of a number of Acts of a general nature; all, however, upon subjects of special interest to the people of our State; nearly all, in fact, bearing upon the public land policy of the General Government. We doubt if any other member of Congress has ever, in the same time, made so great an impression upon the land laws of the country, effecting so many just and needed changes, and ad ding so many important provisions. We are not able to give a full list of Senator Hitchcock's bills, which have passed into laws; but the following partial list, given mostly from recol lection, speaks to his praise more ef fectually than any words we can write. wno espouse tne temperance cause, may know that we are co-laborers with them. Though there are no saloons in our midst, there are many in our coun ty, where our fathers and brothers are tempted and led astray. May the good work still increase. We meet on Thursday afternoon of each week, at Mrs. Stephen B. Hob son's house. Respectfully, Kate Wins low. STATE ITEMS. THS MARKETS. HOME makkets. Reported by White. & Darraii.
