Us Hurts lo ooiaiu ior ncnnwuii me same

b rs, Iowa. Minnesota and Dakota, with its
3 WOO miles of easily constructed and cheaply

We reallirin our ai Iterance to the American
tvatem of tariff, under which, with its broad
protection of American labor, our country has
prospered beyond any other, ah the business
f th cou-.itry now demands revision, the re
publican, alive to the demands of every mate
rial interest, will see to it that .such revision
hall be made at the earlie.-t practical day.
We condemn the action of the democratic ma
jority in congress in that after repeated
pledges of tarilfreform.it liss utterly failed,
whiio h-iyini? a larue majority in the house of
representatives, where tariff bills must irigi
liale, to brii:) about Mich reform, which must
euine freiu the party that lias ever been the
friend of the American laborer and producer.
The grateful tha.iks of the American people
are due te those who defended the union in the
itewar aui we are in favor of providing
suitable pensions for soldiers and nailors who
were disabled in its service or who have since,
without taeirfault or vice, become objects of
public er private charity and to the wHows
and orphan of llme who fell in its defense.
We keartily sympathize with the ambition
and elloru of the patriots of Ireland in their
euueivor to obtain for their country the
!-siii)i of free institutions and local self
government. We recognize in Charles Stew

atone worthy champions of the fundamental
principal of the Declaration of Indepen
dence. We condemn the action of the president in
U attempt to return the trophies won by
ravery on the field of battle.
We condemn the narrow, intolerant and par
tisaa action of the democratic party in exclud

aalf miliioa people of Dakota, solely on the un

reason being given for withholding its ap

Tufl'day walk up to the polls and vote for

question.
Whim-: all the mugwumps and dis
gruntled oflice seekers in the republican
patty are fighting Mr. Eiktnbary yet his
record is so crcditiblo and his ability as
sheriff so well known, that it is the can
did opinion of The IIkr.au that the
people, tomorrow will reelect Mr.
Eiktnbary to succeed hinself.
Maynari Spink will succeed himself
m county superintendent; he has jfivcu
good satisfaction; the people have ex
amined his record and to say it is beyond
criticism is hut telling the truth. Rev.
Burgess, his opponent is a very pleasant
old gentleman; yet republicans cannot
afford to vote for Mr. Burtress for that
ollice, us against Mr. Spink.
Political indications: The political
weather indications are that Higgins and
Wiggins will experience a tidal wave to
morrow, the temperature will be de
cidelv lower. There will be no flies to
roost on Uiins that Mr. Wiggins can
not disperse with the cold breeze that
will sweep over Cass county after the
polls close.
Tin-: Hekai.d will still insist, while Mr.
Campbell is discharging his duties as
county treasurer, that our esteemed
brother of the Journal will inform the
public which is the more pleasurable sen
sation that or reeciyinir a lriie, or ac
cepting a bribe; ccrtaiuly there can be no
good reason why our neighbor cau not
answer this conundrum.
Mi:. CitiTCHKiKf.D, our nominee for
county clerk, being in every way well
qualified for that ollice, should receive
the full party vote in this city. It would
certainly be a reflection upon the intel
Iigence and integrity of the republicans
of Plattsmouth if they allowed Mr.
Critch field's name to be scratched from
the ticket, to even a limited extent.
C- Wnooi'Ku's bank article, in Satur
day night's Journal, is on a par with the
man. The theory that Campbell could
deposit the county funds in one bank in
his own name, then draw a check against
the deposit and thus get the money into
another bank without its coming from
C impbell, or being in Campbell's name
is certainly very, very brilliant. Mr.
Sehrrnan's experience in bank manage
ment is evidently very limited.
It is very interesting, and amusing as
well to see brother Sherman slop over in
behalf of the Knight's of Labor. During
all these years not a word of commenda
tion of the K. of L. organization has been
seen in the columns of the Journal until
since the convention; since then, however,
we are informed that the K. of L. organ
ization is a yc:y important one; that it is
deeply interested in the welfare of the
country; that it is nou-partis::n, with a
slight intimation, however, that it votes
the democratic ticket straight, with the
exception of Judge Maxwell of supreme
judge. The last sentence proves the key
to the whole situation. . If it votes the
democratic ticket, then it is a daisy or
ganization if, however, some of its mem
bers should see fit to vote the repnblican
ticket then, according to Sherman, it
would be a vile compact that meant no
gocd to the public, and would receive
the same abuse that the Hon. Patrick
Eagen received for voting the republican
ticket and earnestly working in its be
half. Henry J. Stkeight is a liberal mind
ed, honest, conscientious, careful man,
well qualified, in every particular, for the
office to which he aspires. Mr. Streight
cannot be, in any sense, considered as one
of the papsuckcrs he has always mind
ed his own business; and although an
old citizen of Cass county has never be
fore, been a candidate for office. Op
posed to Mr. Streight is Mr. Suowaltcr, a
hide bound partisan, whom intelligent
republican voters cannot afford to sup
port, although Mr. C. has held public
office in this county for eight years,
which is longer than any other man has
ever held a county office in this county.
Yet, Mr. Showalter is not satisfied but
wants four years more, which, (if elected),
would make him twelve years in office in
this county, which is really almost one
half of a business man's business life.
To all fairmidded people this is asking
too much and, it is the candid opinion
of the. Herald that Mr. Showalter will
be allowed, for the next four years to
take a re?t from the laborious duties of
the clerks office.
OH! HA WYER.
What do our German friends think of
the German circular published at the. in
stigation of A. J. Sawyer, and paid for
by Mr. Sawyer, wherein he charges Al
len Field as a prohibitionist? Especially
what do you think of the circuiar in
view of the fact, that, Mr. Sawyer's or
gan which he controls in Lincoln, The
Ntin ipublii charges Mr. Field with
being an opponent of the temperance
movement and an enemy to prohibition f
Mre especially, what do you think of
this German reading dodger, in view of
the further fact, that, Mr. Sawyer on Sat
urday last swapped horses with the pro
hibitionist ticket of Lancaster county,
Mr. Sawyer's name bciiH' placed on the
prohibition ticket for district judge in
place of Mr. Humphry, pulled down,
and .Mr. Helmer the prohibition candi
date for county treasurer of Lancaster
county, being placed on the democratic
ticket in place of the democratic candi
date, deposed. This trade was openly
made in Lancaster county last Saturday,
Nov. 5th, and Andrew Jackson Sawyer
is now running on the prohibitionist
ticket for district judge, with German
circulars sticking out of his coat-tail
pocket in which he denounces Allen
Field as a prohibitionist.
If the republican .-party of Nebraska
has nominated as contemptablu a ward
polititian for judge of our courts, in any
district in this state, we would like the
democratic press to trot him out.
ATTEND TO THIS.

publicans should get out and vote to

says:
They the campaign aessmentel are levied
under the guise of printing ana distributing
bailor and providing the other necessary ma
ehineiy of elections. jS'ow, if the state per-
f.-.rnie this work and paid thee expenses, it

cu-e for waking assessment? would be re

question iu politics only (shows still clearer the
desirability of having state-printed billots
distributed to the voters only by regular pull
ing officers paid by the state.
To-pay closes the campaign in Cass
couuty. The prospects and indications
are that the entire republican ticked will
be elected. One veryJcl'lensant feature
of the campaign has In en the disposition
of republicans, in all sections of the
count-, to support the nominees of the
convention. The ticket is an especially
good one from Mr. Campbell at the head
to Henry Boeck at the foot. The candi
dates are all old, well established, well
known citizens of the county, and cer
tainly our opponents have given no good
reason why a single man upon the repub
lican ticket should not receive the cordial
support of all true republicans. The re
publican press of the county, with one
or two unfortunate exceptions, have given
the ticket its undivided support; and in
deed the exceptions, which we will not
particularly mention, haye tended rather
to strengthen the ticket than to weaken
it. The last duty for republicans to per- i
form is to be at the polls to-morrow
morning or a. see that that their vote is
polled iu th"i3 citj Let the work be
done orderly, decently and quietly; but
let the committees in each ward see to it
that their voters are brought to the polls,
and that their votes are cast; this is all
that is necessary to ensure a sweeping
victory in Cass county. After the votes
are polled, if republicans pursue this
course, they will have great cause for
congratulation. There is no question
about the republicanism of Cass county,
or of Plattsmouth city if the rank and
file of the party will simply bury their
trivial differences aud allow the princi
ples of republicanism, that each .and
every one of them believes in, to control
them in casting their ballots. Then the
Herald says to its republican patrons in
Plattsmouth city: close the work of this
campaign to-morrow by showing a united
front, singleness of purpose and a deter
mination to so yote that you'will have no
cause for regret during the next two
years.
