Ttie Omaha Bse endorses our view
of the taxatiou business and says we
mast assess at true value of the prop
erty. A Mr. Durell of this County went
prazy over his losses on hogs by chole
ra and had to be taken to the State
Asylum by Sheriff Cutler.
Ttie President having appointed Mr.
C. I. Filley to continue as Postmaster
at St. Louis, and this without the con
sent of the Globe-Democrat, there is
likely to be more of implacability than
ever in the editorial columns of the
G-D.
Chicago had a big Silver meeting
on the 13th, 5,000 people present and
they wanted the dollar of our daddies
right away. Omaha is agitating the
same thing and the silver dollar is roll
ing along.
"We have had letters from several
gentlemen interested in the sheep bu
siness of the State and Mr. Core near
Iiouisviile, came te see us on the mat
ter. We hepe all these gentlemen will
find time to attend tb wool growers
meeting at Lincoln on the I5th.
There ha3 been a recent decision in
the English courts which is at once
anti-Democratic, and, if put into prac
tice in this country, would disfigure
Cronin's nose. It was the case of a
large stockholder of an English com
pany who met all by himself and unan
imously passed some extraordinary
resolutions. The case was referred to
the courts, and the decision of the
court is that a single stockholder of a
joint stock company cannot "meet"and
transact business. This will be a squel
cher onCronin and his little joint
stock company, and his case, as it will
be observed that both Cronin and the
English stockholder were "unani
mous." I. O
It is reported ex-Senator Hitch
cock, of Nebraska, is to- be appointed
consul general at Pari, vice General
Torbert, whose commission expires
January next.
This is olr last issue before Christ
mas tlt Holiday which all regard,
from the balls ef Congress down
through the courts, the legislatures,
the schools, the business houses, to
each little individual child who thinks
Christmas the happiest day in the
year. "We send a Christmas greeting
to all our patrons, and may the roses
and blossoms of love and joy and hap
piness cluster as thickly round each
fireside and make happy the hearts of
all from the least to the greatest and
we wish you a Merry Christmas and a
Happy New Year.
The Flattsmouth Herald has
changed his tune in reference to the
Indians since a resident of Cass Coun
ty was killed by the "cowardly wretch
es." Now it wants more soldiers and
better rifles. News.
That shows just about how much in
telligence you use in reading your ex
changes. The editor of this paper hav
ing spent a fair portion of his life on
the frontier, with a practical knowl
edge of Indian ways and habits has
never had but one opinion about it
and has advocated it for vears. It cor
responds with the few remarks made
on Mr. Rhoden'a murder.
Editorial Association.
The Editorial Association of Nebras
ka, will meet at the rooms of the Com
mercial Hotel, in Lincoln, on January
15th. 1878. It is desired there be a full
attendance of bona fide members, and
we hope several days session will be
devoted to the business interests of the
fraternity in the State.

Nebraska, and all those interested in
the progress and success of sheep-raising
in the State are invited to be pres
ent at a meeting called in Lincoln, on
January loth. 1878. One of the princi
pal objects of the meeting will be to
firm a State Wool Growers' Associ;-
tion, and to take such steps as will
unite the interest of breeders and sheep
men generally in the State. The Com

Prof. Thompson writes us that the
Horticultural Society of the state de
sires all the information about fruit
growing in Cass Co., that can be ob
tained. Number of orchards, number
of bushels fruit raised, kind of trees,
price per bushel, &c. We would be
thankful for all statistics of this kind
that can be sent to this office.
We also call attention to the wool
grower's meeting at Lincoln on the fif
teenth. In view of the serious loss of
the hog crop by cholera, it behooves
the farmers of Nebraska to turn their
attention earnestly and intelligently
towards a more diversified industry.
Wisconsin found out she could not live
by hops alone. Nebraska learned her
wheat lesson at a very high price for
tuition; let us not be left helpless and
stranded with only the hog to help us
out in the future. Sheep raising, wool
growing, cheese making and dairying
are the next sources of profit in store
for the farmer in Nebraska. We are
happy to see that our western ex
changes at North Platte and Sidney
are waking up to the importance of the
woolen interests of the state, and are
shouting for sheep and woolen mills.
I Let ua have a glorious turn out.
We have made a notice of the meet
ing of the editorial association at Lin
coln on the 15th of Jan. We are very
glad to see that many of our exchang
es are backing us up in our long three
three years struggle that the associa
tion should be put on a square business
footing; that the sessions we hold at
our annual reunion shall be devoted
to the material affairs of the newspa
per business; that none but bone Ida
publishers of newspapers shall be vot
ing members and that the aim and ob
ject of the association shall be the
same as that of the Bar Association,
or the Medical Association of Jie state,
namely, the protection of the business
interests of the fraternity, the gather
ing of statistics useful and necessary
in bettering our condition and to add
the strength of union to our personal
endeavors for success.
Three subjects of very great impor
tance suggest themselves to us as part
of the business of this meeting. A
strong and united effoit should be
made to pledge the conductors of news
papers in this state to the pay in ad
vance system, if we have to put the
price at $1.50 per year. Itjcaujhardly be
done, singly, but by the united action
of the association it may be. The loss
by the present system is immense and
greatly weakens the strength and use
fulness of our county press.
The advertising agency business
must be corrected and the system
changed in favor of the publisher; as
before only a strong and united action
can do this.
Thirdly, there should be some adjust
ment between the legal fraternity and
publisher regarding the securing of
payment of legal advertising, which, is
an absolute loss to most newspapers."
The publishing of the laws of the
state and many other matters should
bo fairly and fully treated of and ar
ranged for in the future and we hope
there will be a full attendance.
State papers please copy.
We are very much disappointed in
not receiving in time for this issue
some Christmas cards, by which we in
tended expressing our good wishes to
our patrons. Look out for them next
week.

Dead wood Items.
The Commissioner General to the Tarls
Exposition
London, December 17. A dispatch
from Constantinople Sunday says the
death of Osman Pasha, while en route
for Bucharest, is announced. Official
advices from Bucharest are awaited
with interest, that the doubt of his
death may bo removed, A telegram
from Bucharest this afternoon an
nounces the arrival of the czar at that
place, but does not mention the death
of Osman Pasha.
BccnAREST, December 17. The re
port of the suicide of Osman Pasha is
false. There is no foundation for the
rumor of his death from any cause.
Bucharest, December 17. Colonel
Wellely, British military attache, says
Osman Pasha had less than 80,000 men
at Plevna, and in his sortie lost 6.000
killed alone. The wounded must have
been 6,000 more.
Deadwood, D. T December 17. A
bottle of petroleum was brought into
this city to-day from an oil well that
was discovered a few weeks ago eight
miles from Jenny's stockade and one
hundred miles south of Deadwood. The
petroleum, is pronounced by experts to
be superior to that of West Virginia.
No Indian depredations have been
committed in this vicinity or on any
of the routes leading to the Hills for
some time.
Davenport. December 17. The
damage sustained by the last span of
the Rock Island bridge Saturday last.
has been substantially repaired. Pas
senger and freight trains commenced
running as usual this morning.
Washington, Dec 16. The Paris
Exposition bill became a law Saturday,
and immediately the name of ex-Assistant
Secretary McCdrmick wtjs sent
into the Senate as Commissioner Gen
eral. At the brief executive sesssion
the nomination was confirmed. The
Senate waived its order of yesterday
not to do any business to day, in order
to accomplish this, as it was necessary
that the Commissioner General should
be able to assume his duties at once.
Funds are very much needed, and
could not be drawn except on the
requisition of the Commissioner Gen
eral.
Nebraska.
Many letters are daily received in
quiring about this State, its soil, cli
mate, and desirability as a f armingcoun
try. In a journey across the State, a
few years ago, we formed a much more
favorable opinion of its sou than we
had previously possessed. During the
past summer, one of our associates
spent seyeral weeks there, visiting a
majority of the counties, and was
very favorably impressed. From al
he could gather, and from other sour
ces of information, we judge that any
farmer going there,with sufficient
means to maintain himself and family
temporarily, until he gets a start
that is, until he can get a first crop
harvested can hardly fail to do well
This year, a large number have made
enough from a single harvest to pay
all expenses of the crop, and the or
iginal cost of the land, with a sur
plus over. Those desiring information
as to localities, prices of land in mar
ket, etc.. would do well to write to
Hon. O. F. Davis, at Omaha; or, A . E
Touzalin, at Lincoln, Nebraska.
American Agriculturist.
It may be difficult to classify dys
pepsias, but it is easy to state the gen
eral conditions on which good digestion
depends. Who are the people that are
always talking about their digestion
and their dyspepsia? Not sailors, nor
agricultural laborers, nor mechanics,
nor boys and girls, nor, for the most
part, men; in other words, not those
who live much in open air and use
their limbs afld muscles. But who are
the people that are afraid of. their
meals, and have miserably to consider
what we shall not eat and what we
shall not drink. They are in-door sort
of people tailors and shoe-makers,
milliner?, clergymen, literary men and
nervous, fidgety people, who are always
worrying themselves. They are peo
ple that weaicen their stomachs by
thiugs which they take not only by
too much beer and spirituous drinks,
but by living too much on tea and
smoking too much tobacco.
TABLE TALK.
"In all attempts at refinement, one
cardinal point should be kept in view,
that manners were made for mer,
not men tor manners. Nice custom?,
courtesy to great kings, and the great
est of these is convenience. Most rules
will be found to serve convenience, and
there is no good breeding where eti
quette is not observed for this end, the
order and comfort of all concerned,
not for the sake of defining one's social
position. When any one begins to
study maaners as a set of arbitrary
rules, followed because every other de
sirable acquaintance does the same,
politeness breeds a sort of pharisaism
that the best bred persons look down
on as supremely vulgar. If any mis
tress of a house looks here for rules
that will aid her to affect a trifle more
of style than her neighbors, she will
only be disappointed. If any woman
wishes hints how to reduce her house
hold to regularity and make her child
ren neat and gentle in habits, it may
be that she will not find this chapter
in vain." Extract from the Home
Cook Book.
St Paciflco.
A peasant coming to a wholesale
seed dealer buying seed was asked for
the terms of payment, he gave the day
as St Pacifico, as ft is the use in
Lombard y where the affair happened
to make notes payable on certain saint
days. The seller looking over his notes
could not find St Pacifico in the almanac
The year passed, Also the note but
when All Saints day came he went
to present his note, saying to-day is all
Saints day, and St Pacifico must
be under that. All right the buyer said
here are your stamps. -
President and Mrs.'IIayes will cel
ebrate their silver wedding next week.

Rodgcrs, the President's Private Secretary.
