A gentleman from Utah writes to the Nebraska Farmer that lie has “sixteen pigs to one old sow.” A large wheat field near Sutton, Nebraska is reported to be greally damaged by grasshoppers, which came along in a cloud and settlad in the field. Secretary Piper, Land Commis sioner Russell, Superintendent Cor bett and Attorney-general Cbtirbilfs past official records were heartily endorsed and they were renominated by a large vote. They are bright, honorable and capable men and will be elected by an overwhelming majority next November. “We would like to know how much of the state school fund that the republican board refuses to disgorge, is used as a Campaign fund, paid out to party newspapers, speakers, eta. Perhaps the ••North western and “Monitor" will deign to throw a little light on this sub ject to an anxious and interested public. Times Independent. The alsive is a base slander and relief's no credit on its author. W# defy editor Brown to prove that a pennv has been or will In* used that way.

H. King, in a letter to the Times Iiulependeut comes ut the republl oan editors because they denounce 0. M. Kem for his miserable record made in congress. Why, King says, “when Kem and MuKegan attempted to move that body to make an approprialion*for the des titute people of this state they met with no better reception from the leading papers of Nebraska.” This is a very poor argument Mr. King, especially when you consider that your own dear governor Holcomb refused the aid tendered to us by neighboring states. On more than on# occasion tho legislature of other states then in session, offered to make sn appropriation for the relief for the people of this state aDd while Kem (pop) was howling starv ation at Washington Holcomb (pop) was refusing aid and saying that Nebraska couid take care of her self. The Independent papers over the state are sending np great and pro longed yelps because the legislature last year took the power to desig nate what papers the Constitution amendments should lie printed in, out of the hands of the goveVuor and placed it with the Secretary of State. They are saying thut many thousands of dollars have gone into tiie republican campaign fund. Where woald it have gone to if governor Holeomb had had the power? The fact is that not a dol lar of this money will he paid out until long after the campaign Is over and then it will be paid to the pa pers who have honestly done the work and are justly entitled to it. In the eyes of the pop editors it is a sin for a republican legislature to see that the republican organs re ceive tbe patronage, but if the In dependent officers capture every thing by way of publiu patronage for their own party paper (and they never fail when they have the power) why that is all right. These re formers should never forget the old maxim that ‘-it is a poor rale that won’t work both ways.” Don’t get so infernal blind that you eant see only when looking at yourself.
