E. A. Allkx. Chairman. TO THE DEMOCRACY OF NEBRASKA. Omaha, Xeb., Aug 20, 1874. Wiikkkas, By reason of the coali tion of parties two year ago, or other possible cause, some counties in the State may be without proper authority to call a "convention to elect delegates to the Democratic Convention at Lin coln. Therefore, the State Central Com mittee, in such cases, desire to suggest tither one or two modes of proeeedure as may be most convenient : First. A call signed "Many Democrats" for a mass meeting of the Democrats of the county to elect a county committee. Second. Apply to the member of the Democratic State Central Committee, representing the district in which sach oountv is situated, who is in such case empowered to call a county convention to elect' felegates to the Democratic StatA Convention whiehlatter conven tion should be composed of the best and raost capable advisers from all parts of the- State, and to the end of 1 i nttcrMTinre uiniia.llV securing -'-rrv:,v from the cotmiu lluf ben 3wtf biefer 93erufung auS jufiiljrcii, luctbcn bie f?oimh)-(?pmite3 erfucht, (5cuntt) GonDentioncn auf obcr uor Sonnabcnb, ben September, ju bcriifen jum 3wffe. ber CSriuablitiig Hon elrgatcn jitr StaatGon&er.tion.

Jacor Vallekv Sr.. Chairman. BUSINESS NOT AFFECTED. The recent depression in business has not affected the passenger traffic, of the St. Louis. Kansas City & Northern Short Line, as they continue to run six fast express trains, two more than any other line between the Missouri and Mississippi Ilivers. This road enjoys great immunity from accidents, by reason of immense expenditures, in the last two years, of over two million dol lars, besides earnings in wonderful im provements, in re'aying their line with new steel and iron rails, on broad, new ties, in new rolling stock supplied with all modern appliances for comfort and safety, and as another safeguard, em ploy night and day watchmen to in spect the road before and after the passage of each train, to see that every thing is in order. Conspicuous among new improvements is the substitution for ordinary cars, of new reclining chair coaches, elegantly carpeted anil fitted with dressing rooms for ladies, gentlemen and families, without any ejrtra charge. The St. Louis, Kansas City & Northern and the Kansas Citj St. Joseph & Council Bluffs Railroad, form the only line running through Pullman Palace Sleepers between Omaha and St Louis. The shortest line between the West and the East is over the St. Louis, Kansas City & Northern Short Line, either through St. Louis, the great metropolis of over 430,000 inhabitants, or through Chica go, via the Chicago & Alton Short Line, over the Louisiana Bridge now open for passage of through trains. Ticket Agents of connecting roads sel ling through tickets to the East, North or South, will furnish tickets by this excellent line. For map, circulars, time cards and information relative to rates, &c apply to or address Ly man McCarty, Kansas City, Mo B. Groat, St. Louis, Mo. TlTn nnlrnntcliwlra TVltfl 4 llir.tr Q tlin receipt of some Salt Lake paper from our friend, W. F. Bennett. Wo call attention to our large sup plement this week, which is filled to overflowing with interesting matter. The two "Little Mac's.." be of the St. Louis Ulobe, and ours of the Watch man agree very nicely in the Beecher business. . Quite a row is reported at Louisviile last week, in Livingston's saloon there. Somebody got a mansard roof ever the eye, and the old gentleman was hauled up for selling liqnor without a license. Better as you go a little slow in L. We publish this week the Democrat ic "call in t'otli (.erniaii and English. We feel so strong, and so good, that we can give our Dutch friends a benefit and also give our first installment of the German American Republican Newspaper we intend to publish. The Papillion Stntiiul wants anoth er railroad from the U. P., near Pa pillion, south to a junction with the B. & M. near the old Cedar Island crossing. All right, go ahead and and get it, or coax the Trunk road to build down this way. The IIkuald would thank the Sec retaries of Primary meetings through out the County, or those interested in Public affairs to send us a list of the delegates to the County Convention at Weeping Water, at once, that wo may publish them by next week. Please don't fail in this, friends. We have been told that Pieper says he can blackguard "Little Mac" and the Hekald all he likes, we can't read the paper and won't know it. Avast there, my boy! It'll be read; you just go ahead if you think there is no hereafter. During the pressure of these hard times, will you please remember that the printer must live, as well as the rest. We do dislike to dun our custo mers, but we must have some money to run a newspaper. It cannot live on air. Please to help us out all you can. The Grand Central at Omaha must be a good hotel, by the number of namesakes it is getting, all over the country. Hardly a town in Nebraska now but that has a Grand Central. Well it is a good hotel, and if Mr. Thrall with Andy Borden to help him, does not know how to keep a good one, no one else need try. Another man, Levy by name, has confessed to having murdered Nathan. The New York Police authorities think he lies, and the question is: What shall we do with a man that con fesses he dul murder some one, when a police officer says he didn't? One thing we know, if he was hung, dead-sure, he couldn't possibly either murder or lie aii3r more. BEECH Ell liO WEN POLITICS. What is this "Iiowpn of contention." The-wlure whereof is so rank.

Bah! that's nothing, we have contract ed for a German Republican power press, and sixteen patent German Re publican type-setters, and expect to run a Republican German-go-ahead-daily, 16 columns wide and 48 long, for the next six months. Dr. Renner will write the editorials, and telegraph them up hy pony express. GOV. FUU XAS- FO iTcO MM I SSI ONE It OF AGRICULTURE. We understand that a strong move is being made in behalf of Gov. Furnas, for Commissioner of Agriculture. We need a Western man there, and above all, a practical man; just such a man the Governor would make, and we most sincerely hope that if a change is made, and our Governor desires the position at all, the powers that be will take his fitness for the position Into consideration, and grant Nebraska the next Commissioner of Agriculture. ., or P-44tf Thr Fnnrie r the Sick.

( Dear Hkbalik Since you kindly extended an invitation to send in "our side of the question" of base ball matches, we send you for this week's publication, a rej.ort of the "Social Match," played at Weeping Water, Neb., Saturday, Aug. loth, by the "Tem perance Nine" of Rock Bluffs, and the "Weeping Waters" of Weeping Water. The game was one of interest, to both sides, and passed oil smoothly and quietly, under the government of Mr. Bellows, who was chosen Umpire, and Shered Graves, who was chosen Scorer. Through the hospitalities of the Weeping Water boys, we were made perfectly comfortable during our whole stay with them; and, fortunate ly for us, there were no "men of mili tary renown" in attendance, to make "dollar bets" on us, and then go back on, and discourage us in the game. Drunkenness was entirely absent from our game; a thing which is too often attendant upon such occasions. The score was, Rock Bluffs 34; and Weeping Water 18. Cap. Jack, Reporter. CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION. Temperance. Many anxious persons are desirous that the Temperance question should be made an issue this fall. In view of the fact that a Constitutional Conven tion is to be voted on this fall and will undoubtedly carry, thus obliging the next Legislature to call said conven tion together, it will probably be in session by February next. That con vention can, and will, no doubt, intro duce a plank asking for "Prohibition" or "No Prohibition" or"Local Option" or "No L,ocal Option", and the whole people of Nebraska can then vote on the square principle at issue without any political complications or personal likes or dislikes for men. In our opin ion that is the time and the place to test the temperance question in Ne braska. MEETING OF THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

Carried. G. II. BLACK, R. Kxowlks, Ties. Secretary. Communicated.) THE THIRD PARTY. The recent convention of the Tem perance, or third party, at Lincoln, in dicates their desire to place a third ticket in the field. To one looking fairly at this question, it appears only as a detriment to the Republican part', and against the interests of the State. It is obvious that this third party is composed, in the main, of men from the Republican ranks, men, no doubt honest in their convictions, but who, we believe, have let this one question blind their interest in others of more importance. Not that intemperance is not an evil, or that temperance is not a great moral reform ; but it is a question that can not effect the gener al interest of the Government. Political parties are founded for cer tain purposes, and for the advance ment of certain principles; and they are supposed to, and do legislate for the interest of those principles to the sacrifice of all others. The issue of the third party is Pro hibition, and in legislating and making prohibition laws, what will become of the questions of finance, commerce, tariff, Railroads, juid other question of vital interest to our nation? The Republican party was founded upon the fundamental principles of Liberty and Prosperity; and to the ad vancement of these questions, in all their intricate leanings it bends its powers; and with what success, is a matter of history. This party, then, being of Republi can extraction will not effect the Dem ocratic vote, and the Bourbons instead of being apprehensive of this new movement, are doing all in their pow er, to complete its organization, show ing conclusively that they look upon it as a God-send a manna in the desert to their political aspirations. It is evident that this premature and imierfect organization, can not be the dominant party; then, since they can hope to attain nothing by independ ent effort, will they suffer themselves to be a cat's paw in the slimy hands of Democracy? would they have this platform of a single idea, be the "hang man's whip" to the Republican party. The quiet chuckle of the Omaha Herald, the professed brain pabulum of the mongrel "Outs" ought to answer the question. For shame Republicans! Where's your loyalty to the old party that brought you through the black valley of slavery, bridged the gory streams of the Rebellion? weathered safely the financial crisis? and loves you as she does her principles! Work your reforms by mild entreaty, exam ples and leniencf. The Government can not help you, for the question of a moral reform is also a question of mor al responsibility, that politics can not answer. The Campaign this fall will be typi cal of the past, if the party remains united. And with a declaration of a desirable public policy, the nomination of honest, practical, experienced men. we believe the Republicans will march in social phalanx to the Polls, and raise for themselves the victory that their wisdom and heroism deserves.

Chicanery To paim off old hen as fricasseed chicken At a special meeting of the board of education it was resolved to introduce the study of German in the seventh and eighth gradesof the public schools, and the salary of Prof. Decker, who is to teach that language, was fixed at $800 per year. The following teachers were elec ted as second assistants, viz: Miss Cush man and Miss Fawcett of Blair, Miss Houghton of this city and Miss Morse, of Plattsmouth. Omaha Herald. We are very glad to learn that Miss Morse has been selected as one of four from a numerous list of applicants, and also to hear that she passed one of the best examinations among 10 different teachers examined for those grades, and Omaha has received a faithful and competent teacher in Miss Morse. Miss Fawcett too, of Blair, is an old friend of the Herald's, and a most es timable young lady, and we most heartiy and sincerely congratulate her on her good luck and bright prospects. The Republic magazine, published at Washington, D. C, maintains its high standard as an exponent of the leading political questions of the day. Among some twenty articles in the number for August the one entitled "Republican Party," in which is shown its relations to the welfare of the coun try, is deserving of a careful perusal at the present time. So, also, the ar ticles on "The Republican Party and Reconstruction," "Transportation Cor porations vs. Congress and the supreme Court," "The National Finances," and others.

Whenever you find a stout, healthy minister hanging around your wife, with a "holy and a sincere admiration and affection," which sentiment is reciprocated by your wife, having a "lofty, spiritual, religious yearning and pure platonic love for that priest," that attracts her frequently to his side, do you, unsophisticated young husband, just go right out to the nearest cobbler, and buy a heavy pair of pegged stogy boots. Put those stogy boots right on. and the next time that minister calls at your house to peddle his "spir itual essence," tak him gently by the coat col'ar, make a short oration, whereof the peroration shall be "(Jet out!" and then clinch the argument a posteriori with them stogys. It's the best way to get along with an intimacy, innocent though it may be, that some times brings a "heap of trouble" in its train. Remember the Friday evening-. Concert on ADVANCE VOL R STATE.
