The fact ib Jlr llorrisey hates the badge more than he does the man Seavey. The Beatrice Express and another state exchange came to us with the grat ifying news that "Plattsmouth is soon to have an electric light plant." Thanks for the information. Thk Cass county fair opens .Tuesday, Sept. 20th, and holda for four days. The prospects are yery promising and special efforts are being made to have it surpass any former fair held in the county. Kansas Citv has a new temporary daily paper known as the &un which is run for the express purpose of express ing to the pcoplo expressions of praise and prophecy made by the press and the people in regard to tho national agricul tural exhibition whicli opens there Sept. 15th and closes Nov. igt 1887. Spaik is making arrangement to cel ebrate, in 1893 tho 400th anniversary of the discovery of America. For this pur pose she will invite all nations who people the territory diacovdred by Columbus to take part in the celebration. She also signifies her willingness to take part in any other celebration which may be un dertaken on the American continent to commemorate the great event. Hastings is boomed with another busy buzzing daily. It is the N't IrasTca Daily News and the issue of Sunday last comes to us full to overflowing, with nineteen columns of reading matter and not a solitary plate. The testes is a morning paper, receiving telegraphic dis patches and was started last "Wednesday. So much more for Hastings and the news paper corps of Nebraska. If Jlr. Morrisey, of the Omaha Herald, should hang Grover's picture on his clothes-line during the reunion and Gro- rcr should find it out, wo hope there will be no unpleasantness over it; although, they do say, Grovcr is particular as to who, places his excellency on exhibition nowadays and does not encourage com mon plugs who seek to advertise them selves in that way. If Jlr. Jlorrisey wish es to show his colors this week at Omaha, we guarantee no one will take olfese at it. Tite Texas ex-confederates held a re union at Dallas Texas last week, in which one Gen. Stanley spoke of the siguificence of "these re-unions" saying in that con nection "The principals we establish we hand down to our children." and then the General proceeded to retail a very cheap lie about Gen. Tuttle and his reg iment calling the Department Commander of Iewa a' cattle thief etc. The sentiments these brigadiers hand down to their children are about on a par with those of Yancey, Lamar and Davis &Co hand ed down in 1861. The fact has come to light that dem ocratic officials in the general land office have certefied the accounts of certain government surveyors, duplicating pay ments ammounting to several thousands of dollars. The 6um of $70,000 haying been erroneously paid on California ac counts alone. There appears to be con siderable loosness in the manner in which business is transacted in certain bureas of the treasury department under the pres ent administration, notwithstanding the extravagant promises ot "reform" which were made by the democrats in 1884, if they were only placed in power. Dem ocrats are unexcelled in the matter of making promises, but when it comes to performing them well, that is altogether different, they don.t do it. The republican county convention of Lancaster county, meets the railroad rate issue squarely and endorses the state com missioners in their efforts to procuro rea sonable rates from the R. R. Co's. of the state for the producer and trader. It has often occurred to ub, that certain railroad magnates create great reputations for themselves, as brainey fellows and mana gers, in making their roads pay large net earnings by straight out robbery of the public. If this constitutes greatness as a railroad official, we have about enough great men of that class already. If any one can meet and explain away the "cold figures" contained in Judge Mason's last open latter to 3Ianager LToldrege, we would like to see it done. Judge Mason and the commission haye opened up the railroad controversey upon a basis and in a manner tho common herd can under stand and it is growing interesting. We rejoice at the era of figures in this con troversey. The anarchist circles of Chicago are said to be considerably stirred up over the prospect of an early decision from the supreme court refusing their con demned brethern a new trial. The pub lic press is quite strung in its hope that the court will find no ground on which to grant a new trial, and if a new trial shonld be granted, nine chances out of ten they would never travel the gibbet rout. Such an escape would be considered a great victory by the anarchists of America, even though the condemned men bo imprisoned for lifr, and the revolution workers woul swarm irom ineir noies to organize ana criate a national disturbance. But if the leaders bo hung as per their sentence it will bo a blow to anarchy in America from which it will never recover. There fore, since the future welfare of theJU. S. so mnch depends on this one case let i be made a powerful example in her favor. Our Candidates. Politically speaking, the Republican pot is beginning to boil in numerous places. We hoar of a number of candi dates for the various county offices. For 6ome of the offices there Bcems to be dearth of candidates, while for others thero seems to be nuito scramble. For County Treasurer no one as yet has been spoken of except D. A Campbell, the present incumbent, and as he is now only in his first term, and as it it the unwritten law of politics to give a good officer a second term, in all pro bability he will be renominated. For County Clerk we hear of only two aspirants: Bird Critchfield and Bob Wilkeson, both of Weeping Water. For Registrar of Deeds, no one has been named except Wm. II. Pool, who was elected to the office two years ago, but on account of a technicality in the lawf did not hold the office. The feeling seems to be pretty general in favor Jlr. Pool's unanimous nomination. For Sheriff there are quite a number who are ready to lay themselves U)on the altar, among whom, as we learn, are J. C. Eikenbary, the present incumbent; B. C. Yeomans and Dave Woodward, of Weeping Water ; Wm. Dallas, of Stove Creek ; Cooley, of Tipton, and possibly some others. For County Superintend ent of Instruction no one as yet has been named except the present incumbent, JIaynard Spink, who is now serving his first term. Willett Pottenger and C. A. Woosley will contest with Judge Russell for the office of County Judge. For County Commissioner we haye Walter Cutforth's name presented, of Louis ville, and Jlr. Young, we believe, of centre precinct. For Clerk of Dist. Court, Jlr. Win. Hays is before the people. This list comprises some of the best men in Cass County, and the republicans can make judicious nominations and place before the people of Cas3 jCounty, a clean, clear ticket that will sweep the county. Bishop Harris Dead. The daily papers of last Saturday, an nounced the sad intelligence that Bishop William L. Harris D. D., L. L. D. of the Methodist Episcopal church died at his home in New York City on Friday even ing, f heart disease. Deceased was born near JIansfield, O., Nov. 14, 1887, and at his death was near ing his seventieth birthday, lie was converted and joined the church when in hia seventeenth year, and in the service of the same he spent his entire life, ne became a preacher in 188G, and joined the Michigan Conference in 1837. He served in the pastorate until 1840 whem he became connected with the education al work of the church. In th is relation, he spent four years as tutor in the Ohio Wesleyan University. In 1848, by the unanimous request of his conference he became principal of Baldwin Institute, now Baldwin University; from there he returned in 1851 to the university atDel eware and took charge of the Academical department, and in 1852 was elected to the chiar of chemistry and natural history in the same institution, wich place he held for eight years. From this position he wa3 elected assistant corresponding secre tary of the Jlissionary society where he served, kaving been twice re-elected, un til 1872, when he was elected bishop. Whilo occupying this office he traveled extensively, in this country, and also cir cumnavigated the globe in the interests of the missionary work of the church. He wa3 a member of every general con ference of his church from 1856 to 1872 and was elected secretary of every session during that period without opposition In 1874, ho was sent by his church as a representative to the British Wesleyan conference, and at the same time was commissioned by the American Bible so ciety as its representation at the session of the British and Foreign Bible Society, in London. These facts indicate the honor injwhich he was held, not only by his own. church but by the christain church and the christian warld. He was a man of strong convictions, strong will, and great determination. He despised any thing like self seeking and political trickery in the conferences over which he presided, and many times used his authority as a bishop to break rings and destroy plans laid by scheming men in official places. lie was a clear and forcible preacher, nis sermons were eminently bibical. The writer beard it remarked of one of his conference ser mons that "it contained more scripture to the squre inch than was ever preached at this conference." He had a peculiar power in reading the scriptures before an audience, of bringing out and impressing the real meaning. - In Bishop Harris' death the church has lost a leader and the world a champion of every good cause. Truly, "A Prince has fallen." Local option as a Moans. Not an End. Toledo Blade. oviarkeu as lias been the growth o public sentiment in favor of prohibition there is a very large portion of the fifty odd millions of people in the United States who have not had tho matter so forcibly presented to their minds as to make them the active, relentless, untire ing ioe or the rum power. I hero arc many thousand persons, in the aggregate. interested directly or iudirectly in the rum traffic, who fatten upon the spoils it levies from the drinking element, or cam their daily bread in some oecupa tion connected with the manufacture and salo of some one or other of tho numer ous forms in which rum is presented to its patrons. They are, of course, bitterly opposed to any interference with the un holy traffic. So also aro the additional tens of thousands nay. hundreds of thousands of weak and vicious men around whom the infernal rum thirst has woven a spell as potent and as ovil as that of the fabled CincE, the enchantress whose maeric turned her admirers into grunting swine, wallowing in their own filth. These two classes are, from the very nature of things, tho uncompromis ing enemies of those who are working to destroy tho traffic, banish the saloon and pulverize the rum power To these are opposed those who have carefully considered the creat drink problem in all its bearings, and have ar- ived at the conclusion that there is but ono thinjr to be done to stop the swell ing stream of poverty and degredation, vice and crime, that is the result of rum and that one thing is, to destroy the traf fic by the prohibition of the manufacture and sale of the infernal poison. They see that there has grown up, through the enormous profits ot this unholy minister ing to the appetites of weak and depra ved humanity, a formidable array of men banded together by the strongest of pure- ily human motives, self-interest, to not only perpetuate the damnable traffic, but to battle for its extension, until the great mas of fallen humanity shall have bowed beneath the sway of rum, in order that their ill-gotten gains sua 11 be still farth er increased. This phalanx of interested manufacturers and dealers, both whole sale and retail, is conveniently described by the one phrase, "the rum power." Besides these two classes of the com munity the mends ot prohibition on the one side, and the rum power en th e other there remains a great mass of people, who stand as regards tho matter of prohibition, upon what may be called neutral cround. JIany of them have never considered tho matter sufficiently to have an intelligent opinion upon the suhiect one way or another, home, as the result of an insufficient examination, believe that temperance is a matter for the individual, and so long as they each ive temperately they have discharged their duty to the state. Their attitude is like that of Cain when he answered, "Am I my brother's keeper?" Then there are those who have a misty idea that the making and selling of rum is "business," and that business ia always a benefit to the community; hence that to put a stop to this damnable traffic is to injure "business." and therefore are in clined to look askause at the prohibition movement. This class looks at it in a hundred different ways; but none of them have so studied the question in all its bearings that they are able to discuss it reasonably, or have any intelligent opinion upon it. This great neutral class of the com munity should be the first objective point of prohibition effort. It is a ead fact that the friends of prohibition are divided among themselves as to tho best method of reaching the desired end. They all agree that state and national prohibition is the ultimate aim, but they cannot be come united upon one line of effort. Their strength is frittered away in di vided work. There are those who are laboriog earnestly to build up a separate political party on this one issue; they are working for a party first, to the end that, when that party becomes a majority in the state, prohibition can then be reached through its means. We have frequently discussed the practical objec tions to this plan, and need not recapitu- ate them here. There are also those who are laboring to convert each individual member of tho community nto a total abstainer, so that the rum traffic may die a natural death through ack of patronage. And there are those who, like the Blade, feel that any step which harasses and injures the rum power any law or statute which curbs its power, any effort which increases the number of those who believe in the extinction of tho rum power, is to be commended and supported, as a moye in the right direc tion. The real thing to do is to convince all then, not already committed to one side I or the other not slaves or adherents of the rum power, nor prohibitionists that prohibition is a wise, a just, and a a proper thins. It is sometimes difficult tr. rnmnl.nil thp trfm1nna inprfk r,f the public. Men who have been roused to a full comprehension of the magnitude of this giant evil of rum become weary I and impatient over the slow progress the ' great reform seems to make. They .fail to remember that time is a vital clement in any such mevoiuent. It is useless to lorco it upon a state where the public is not educated up to its support. The recent campaign in Texas affords a lino illustration of this. From a strategic point of view, the forcing of the voto upon constitutional prohibition at this time was a mistake. We believe that work upon the local option plan is at present the most advis able. Prohibition by this method be comes effective in all parts of the 6tato which are educated up to it. And each town or village or county whicli votes prohibition becomes a potent educator to the people of all tho surrounding country. The leaven spreads faster, and the work is facilitated. The tiino comes much sooner at which a majority of the people of the entire state favor prohibit tion, and will vote for its engrafting on the state constitution. Local option is not the end in itself, but a means to that end. It is a most potent means where by to Pulverize the Rum Power. They Extinguished the Post. Kansas City Sun.
