Undoubtedly the great wind storm
of Saturday and in fact the atmosphi
tic disturbance of several days, cor
responds with our spring snow storm,
that we frequently have in March and
even as late s April; only in this case
it was wind and dust, fiercely driven
instead of snow and sleet. In March,'
18G9 (about the 15th) we had a very
severe storm of wind and snow, and on
April of 1873 another, in which cattle
and men perished in the prairies.
Both the sons of Ex-Senator Chris-

ington and finding she could not, turn
ed on her husband and invented this
yarn together with the opium and

It may be semi-authoritatively stat
ed that Gov. Nance is not a candidate
for U. S. Senator to succeed Senator
Paddock. An Osceola paper, which,
being published at the home of of Gov.
Nance, may be looked upon as voicing
the sentiments of the Governor has
this to say: "The unfounded rumors
of an attempt to supersede Paddock,
place Gov. Nance in a very delicate
position. Say what ho will, or do what
he may, there are friend3 who insist
that he should bo a candidate, and
there are others not so friendly, who
insist that he is a candidate. Fortu
nately Senator Paddock is a man who
cannot be easily duped, and we do not
apprehend that he is at all disturbed
by the report. Paddock bus many
warm friends in Nebraska, and his
chances are good, but if he is defeated
it will not be the fault of Go v. Nance."

Stock Agents, Bn sin ess, &c , JLc.
We have been surprised to notice
the number of stock agents in here
lately to see what Cass County has to
sell. They all want to see the Her
ald, and about half a dozen have cop
ied our list of cattle feeders. It shows
what even a small newspaper can do
now and then on a subject that inter
ests the people and especially if it puts
money in their pockets. Now this is
all right, we like to see the stock com
mission men here, and we believe Cass
County and Eastern Nebraska is go
ing to feed more and more cattle, and
ship them to Chicago for you chaps to
sell, but now we want you to do some
thing for us, or one of these fine days
we'll hunt up another market. We
want you to raise thunder in Chicago,
about some of the rates for feeding,
&c, in those Union Stock Yards there.
If the railroads own the stock yards,
go for the railroads, and if the yards
own the roads go for both of them.
It now costs (81.00) one dollar per
bushel to feed stock in the Union Stock
Yards of Chicago, and (330) Thirty
Dollars per ton for hay. Now we can
raise hay and corn cheaper than that
in Nebraska. It won't do gentlemen,
whoever control those yards, we can
bale hay and ship corn by the car-load,
so much cheaper that you big gentle
men, you fellows of the Times and In
ter Ocean, Tribune and Stockman have
got to reduce this thing, or we'll ship
by boat to St. Louis. The "Joe Kin
ney" will be here soon and offers to
ship hogs to St. Louis for 70 cts per
head, and "haul" feed free. You see
stockshippers can't "stand that. The
Yardage in Chicago, outside of feed is
25 cts per head for cattle, and 5 cts to
7 cts for hogs, and then tho shippers
say they never get full weight for hay
or corn in Chicago. Gentlemen, Beus
ley, Wagner & Bensley, Bown, Price
& Co., please look after this, if you
want the trade of Nebraska. We are
friendly to Chicago, but you must go
to work on this or we shall ship else
where. Do you mind that.
The Judiciary committee of the
Senate reported against the confirma
tion of Major Balcombe for U. S. Mar
shal. It seems Mr. Paddock has some
friends in the Senate, if our handsome
Junior, (Elder) Senator does have the
"ear of the President."
Still Mr. Saunders proposes to have
Mr. Balcombe confirmed, we under
stand, and the other powers will buck
and then we have a pretty mess. Wo
are sorry for this "late unpleasantness"
of our delegation at Washington because-
it wi'.l if kept up, be brought
home here to curse us in our conven
tion and be dragged by the friends of
each party, through all next winter's
legislative session, to the hindrance of
wise law-making and attention to leg
itimate matters of importance to the
state.
It is already furnishing matter for
the sarcastic pen and wilty tongue .of
J. Sterling Morton, and the graver
censure of thinking men all over the
state.
A statement has been going the
rouuds that the opposition of the Chi
cago Tribune to Sherman, as x candi
date for tho Presidency, was because
Joseph Medill visited Sherman in the
winter of '77 or '78, and represented
that he was financially in distress, and
if Sherman insisted on resumption it
would greatly injure him. Mr. Sher
man said he could not modify a well
grounded public policy to aid private
interests, and Medill went away road.
A Reporter of the I-O waited n the
Secretary and he says among other
things:
"But," continued the Secretary with
emphasis, "there is one thing I will say,
and I will say it positively, and that
is that I believe Joseph Medill to be a
bad and corrupt man. The libels that
have been published against me in the
Tribune for the past - two years prow
out of the conversation referred to by
Mr. Bates man, which Mr. Medill sought
with me at the "Treasury Department
and which I may give to the public
seme time, but at present I do not de
sire to say anything further.
That's a pretty good campaign docu
ment, John ; and if you don't let Carl
Schurz get away with loo much bag
gage, we may vote for Sherman in Ne
braska yet.

A Greeubacker Talks out o' 5Ieetin'.
Liberty Prec't, Cass Co., Neb., )
March 17th, 1880. J
Mr. Editor: I see that the Cass
County Sentinel has again changed and
come out as the Cass County Demo
crat. I have often thought that there
was something peculiar about that
Press," though it may be in the type,
and it may be in the hands that set
them up. That press was set up in
Louisville, and run as a People's Jour
nal; then it came out a Greenback pa
per; then it was sold out, during the
campaign of '76, to the Republicans.
The next .we knew of it, it was run
ning in Plattsmouth, in the interest of
Temperance and Plattsmouth, and all
the institutions of Plattsmouth (sa
loons included), and fighting the Her
ald, because it saw fit to allow other
portions of tho County to be heard
from through its columns. The next
we knew of it, it became extremely
poor, and was for sale again to the
Greenback party; but this time the ed
itor did not p'ropose to sujJeithor him
self or his party. So it was finally
bought by Mr. Gregory, and i un by one
Thompson, supposed by some to be a
Greenbacker, by others to be a Demo
crat, and by some otheis to be a little
of both, and for sale. So, the first op
portunity that presented itself, he sold
out to this glorious old-timed Demo
cratic party of Cass County. Now I see
that one Jo Biles is running it. I was
aware some time ago that the Democ
racy of Cass County was seriously af
fected, but I did not suppose they
would L-ieak out with Bile.s; but now
that they have, and his Salutatory has
been published, I will endeavor to re
ply to it briefly.
The Democrat says that the patty
wants a more thorough organization,
and that this can only be accomplish
ed as a parly untrammeled bjt any
concessions to the Greenback party. I
would just say that the Greenback
party has never asked any of the Dem
ocrats to make any concessions, and it
has never asked any favors save one;
that was to let the Greenback party
alone.
The Democrat says it will use its
utmost endeavors to prevent fusion.
I think, by the aid of the Democrat
the Greenback party will be able to
get rid of the Democrats. If so, I am
sure the Democrat will prove a great
er blessing to the Greenback party
than it can to the Democrats. The
Democrat speaks of the fusion stand-
ng in the way of the success "of the
party, and that it cast a blot on the
name and honor f tho party. Judging
from the fraud practiced by the Dem
ocrats last Fall, in trying to secure a
fusion with the Greenback party, one
would suppose it would bo impossible
to blot the honor of the party. But,
perhaps, he is right; ho has been look
ing after the honor of the party, aud
found nothing but a blot.
The Democrat speaks of the over-J
throw of the corrupt Republican party.
As a Greenbacker I am just as anxious
to secure the overthrow of the corrupt
Democratic party, and I have seen the
time when I would have liked to see
their banner trail in the dust; that
was, when it had the bars and stripes
o:: it, instead of the stars and stripes.
I would like to know how old-timed
the Democrat is; whether it is Jack
son, Benton or Buchanan Democracy.
Feeling that I have already occupied
more of your space than I should have
done, I close.

'For God, and i oine, and Native Land."
Professor Foster's lectures on Tem
perance were marked by candor, clear
ness, simplicity and force. Without
undertaking an analysis we will pres
ent a few points made, omitting many
others as good and promising that a
skeleton cannot be expected to possess
tho glow and charm of life."
He maintained that intemperance
was the greatest of evils because of its
wide sweep. Pestilence, plague, fa
mine, war and other evils are only lo
cal, affecting limited portions of earth's
surface, and limited periods in the his
tory of its inhabitants. Intemperance
has ravaged the globe and wrought its
fearful destruction in all ages. It is
the greatest of evils because of the
ruin it causes. Other evils affect ma
terial prosperity, or physical health or
moral excellence.
Iutemperance causes dreadful havoc
a in one all these and brings ruin not
only upon its immediate victims but
also breaks the hearts and embitters
fi, i;..c p ...i !
tuu iiTva r x. in woo iu n uuiu nicy ttiric
lated. He summoned the business of
rum-selling Jinto court for trial, de
manded that it should establish its
claims to be legitimate, lespectable bu
siness. Every legitimate business
either benefits a community by adding
to its material resources, by increasing
its wage-fund, viz: the money expend
ed for labor, or by promoting the men
tal and njOLal Improvements of its ci
tizens. The liquor traffic destroys
material wealth by turning nu
tritious grains into u fiery intoxicant,
which burns up body and soul, charac
ter and reputation, genius and indus
try. It diminishes the wages of every
laborer and the income of every me
chanic and business man, because it
absorbs money which would otherwise
be expended upoa useful labor and be
employed in improving property and
purchasing the comforts and luxuries
of life. It wages direct war on men
tal and moral culture, favoring no
schools, but schools of vice and coun
teracting all religious influences. In
his closing lecture ho showed that
the life aud prosperity of a county
or state depend upon the character
of its citizens.
The best citizen is the one most in
dustrious, intelligent, energetic aud
possessed of the highest moral pur
pose. Intemperance destroys these
qu:ilitkjs-nd by debasing the citizen
produces the decay of the State.
In regard to prohibition he urged
that society exists for the protection
of its members and the promotion of
their best interests. It protects birds
aud fishes from the exterminating de
struction of sportsmen and fishermen,
much more ought it to protect the
weak and helpless from the destruc
tion caused by drink. . It endeavors to
protect from the ravages of Small-pox
or Yellow Fever, or from the explo
sive eltects or gunpowder, why not
protect from the more fearful results
of intemperance? A licensed saloon is
opened near the home of a widowed
mother with an only son. Its gilded
finery, brilliant array of decanters.
gay revels and other fascinating ac
companiments tempt that son. The
mother pleads with the saloon-keeper
to sell him no more stimulants. He
refuses and points to his license. She
appeals to the civil authorities asking
that the glittering temptation be re
moved from sight of her home, which
it is cursing. They can not interfere
because they have sold their authorilv
by granting a license. Thus society
fails to answer the very end and rea
son of its existence by failing to pro
tect those of its citizens who most need
itsprctectioa.beeauseof their weaknesi
and feebleness. Moral suasion is not
sufficient to protect society from other
crimes, as theft, murder, &c.. neither
is it sufficient to protect from the inju
ry caused by intoxicating beverages.
To attain its full, proper power, moral
sentiment must crystallize into moral
egislation. Hitherto the tempeiance
axe Las been only cutting away the
smaller roots and surface fibres of tho
poisonous upas tree of intemperance.
Prohibition will cut away its tap root
and level in the dust its mighty trunk
aud wide spread branches.
