THE HERA Ll.
i). A. MACMUIU'lir. ; . i . . : :Ei)ITOn.
PLATTSMOUTn. APRIL 20, 1873.
The State news column of the Oma
ha Republican was fearfully mixed up
on Saturday last.
Our experience with J. li. "Weston,
Auditor of State, is that he is if any
thins too scrupulous ttb'otft paying out
my money on contracts, and yet the
Omaha Herald lias the impudence to
designate him as a "nimble lingered ras
cal." It is curious to read the different ac
counts of the reiorters in the I'eecher
trial, one says he was nervous and tim
il, another bold and saucy, one thafc he
looked worried, another jolly and oily
andso-on. Queer eyes they have. We
guess the eyes are home in the editori
al rooms of the papers they represent.
WHAT SOME KEl'UBLICANS HAVE
DONE.
The franking privilege was supposed
to have been abolished and postage
made cheaper for the people. As a.
matter of fact, instead, franking is re
established and postage for the people
increased in price. Let us see ?
The Democracy of Louisiana don't
mean to live up to their bargain it
seems, as regards the "Wheeler award.
They are reported as unseating four
Republican members of the lower
House.
Evidently peace does not suit the fire
eating element south nor the rebel dis
contented north. There is no capital
t be made in a State of peace.much may
he manufactured at a time of unrest.
"But four months have elapsed since
we heard a great shout and cry for free
banking and wonderfully wise men
told us if we only would give every
body a chance and destroy the "ringed
monopoly" of bankers we should all
have glory and money galore we 7iace
free banking, not a new bank in the
State, very few anywhere else, and
$.,000,000 of capital returned to Uncle
Sam by the old bankers don't want it
can't loan it, no money in it.
THE JOHNSON OUU1N FACTORY.
During a short visit at the above es
tablishment last week, the Herald
saw many curious and wonderful
things: just how organs were made
and put together, we never understood
before. We stayed to see the finishing
touches to a new instrument just go
ing off on the wagon. After the last
ornament was placed on, Mr. Johnson
played us a tune, and away she went
to make some farmer's home glad.
Mr. John "Way man, Engine maker,
has quite an establishment in the same
buildings. The engine Mr. Johnson
uses was built by AVayman; he ha.s
also built a number for farm use and
for Mill3 out in the county. In fact
Mr. "W. may consider himself a success
:ls an engine builder. All who take an
interest in our manufacturing prosper
ity, should take a peep at these two
ithops.
ANNUAL SPKINOiiUNT' OF THE
FLATTSMOUTU SPORTING CLUB.
Our spoilsmen met at Hon. Sam
M. Chapman's office last AVednesday
:;ight and made arrangements for their
annual' spring hunt. Thirteen were
chosen on a side with Geo. S. Smith and
Capt. L. D. Bennett as captains, but
when the day for the hunt carao only
seven on a side went out. The sides
made the following score:
Smith 1,303
Average 199.
Bennett 1,430
Average 204.
The hunt was conducted on the count
tfiven by the American Sportsman of
February 2d, 1873, and is the one used
by the Xew York sportsmen in their
match hunts, and is as follows:

FROM AYEEPINU WATER.
A Little Girl Burned ti Death Grass
hoppersThe ATeather, ete.
AVeefing "Water, April 27.
Ei. IIekald: Seldom haour com
munity been more startled than by the
announcement last Friday morning
that a little daughter of T. E. Evans
had lieen burnt to death. Mr. Evans,
who lives several miles south of town,
was engaged in burning corn stalks or
stubble, his children being with him
in the field. One of the girls, aged
about nine years, in some way caught
her clothes on lire while she was at
quite a distance from her father.
Jieing of course frightened she scream
ed and ran with all might until the
last stitch of clothes was burned from
her body, her father being unable to
overtake her until after she had fallen
down. She lived for about six hours,
being conscious all the time. Com
plaining but little, and trying to com
fort her sorrow stricken parents by as
suring them that he was not afraid to
die. Dr.-Thouias, who waited on the
patient, says sho- was one of the most
terrible sights he has ever seen, the
Mesh being cooked to a crisp.
The young grasshoppers are much
mere numerous than last week, but
they are yet of too diminutive dimen
sions for us to hazard any prediction
. on their probable operations.
The weather for the past week has
been very favorable for farming oper
ations, and our farmers seem to have
improved it to the extent of their
ability. A good many people in
town are beginning to think the place
old enough to have shade trees aud so
are setting out elms and maples jut
outside of the sidewalks (or where
they ought to be.)
Iieed Bros, have received large addi
tions to their stock this week. The
good! which they offer are very attrac
tive. Their prices seem to give uni
versal satisfaction.
AVe call attention in another column
to all sportsmen to meet to-night
Hurry up boys the State Association
ill be formed next month.

A Prevalent Iiseae.
There is 110 disease so prevalent in America
as dyspepsia and f ci'talnly none which has so
generally baflled and defeated the skill of the
medical profession. The only remedy for this
distressing complaint is a pure medicated stini
ulnat. Hostetter's Stomach Rittors. whose es
sential principle is sound rye, is admitted by
medical practitioners to be the only alterative,
corrective and restorative on which they cau
rely. The Hitters are the best possible specific
for" flatulency, dizziness, watcrhrash, incgnlar
itv of the bowels, ami all indications of continu
ed dyspepsia. They do not excite, but soothe the
irritated stomach and bowels, and may be tak
en by persons of the most delicate and sensi
tive organization, who are unpleasantly affect
ed by the use of the ordinary stimulants of com
merce. Though their effect is most decisive,
yet they are so mild and beneficent it) opera
tion, as to be suitable to children as well as to
adults.
