We to-day hoist the name of lion.
O. P. Mason for Chief Justice. The
question has been raised whether the
Governor can fill a vacancy beyond a
general election; the Democracy have
nominated with-, a view to foisl a Den
ocratic Chief Justice upon the people
unawares, and try the question. Let
us forestall the cops and keep the
choice of the people where he now isr
Chief of Nebraska's Judiciary, We
can. thus endorse- him so completely as
to put his position beyond the reach of
rebel tricks.
"By letter from the Governor's pri
vate secretary we learn that Gov. But
ler and Sec. Kennard will not speak
here on their downward trip, as the
Governor has already spoken In this
place, and it will take their whole
time to get around. They will speak
at Peru on the 7th at 1 oclock p.m., at
Nemaha City same day at 7 o'clock
p.m., at St. Deroinon the 8th at lp.m.,
at Arago same day at 7 p.m. The
people should turn out en masse to
these meetings, and give them a hear
ing. It will pay to leave your work
and do so.
The Republican- nominees for Sena
tor and Representatives are holding a
series of meetings, throughout the
couriy. The people turn out well
and give them a very flattering reception-..
We publish the list of ap
pointments at the head of the editorial
column this week. We hope that
every man that can, will go and hear
them at their nearest pointof meeting.
The people and the Representative
should become acquainted. In this way
one may learn more of the wishes and
wants of the otherand thereby increase
his usefulness, as well as his chances
to better reflect the will of his constit
uency. We had a good time at the Republi
can Club rooms in Brownville on last
Thursday night. Congressman Taffe
and Gen. Strickland of Omaha, de
livered able and effective addresses
to a good audiance. The speakers
were among the best of the many, our
club has listened to during the present
campaign. Mr. Taffe Tead from, the
Congressional Globe a refutation. ef the
Poppleton charge that Taffe voted
against Government aidto.Rail Road
enterprises in Nebraska, andshoweda
clear record upon the subject, and
then very blandly submitted the ques-
tionasto which of two men would be
likely to serve our Interests best one
who is untrameled bv past and present
engagements to one of ,he most pow-
erful corporations of the State, or one
who is the paid attorney for an en
terprise which holds a jealous hand
upon all projected Rail Roads which
inevitably must come in competition
with it for the western freight Gen.
Strickland although once a " Demo
crat and always a Democrat " refused
at the breaking out of the Rebellion
to follow the party in Its search " after
strange gods."- He conclusively
proved irom tne record toat tne so
called Democracy of to-day had not
one principle in common with the
Democracy of years ago. That the
issue of to-day was that one-soforci-
tly and ttrickingly put by F. P. Blait
in his letter to CoL Morehead, that of
Revolution as opposed to peace, and
in such &n event h with Grant
and his followers as all trulv Union

Attention, lie publicans I
The Democracy are making every
efTort to get the Legislature In order to
elect a Democratic United States Sen
ator, which would be an everlasting
disgrace to our young Republican
State. We therefore urge upon you
the necessity of seeing that every Re
publican is registered, and that they
vote the straight ticket. Lay aside
your local jealousies and stand by the
ticket.
Richardson county is claimed by the
Democracy, bat we know that in such
an important election as the coming
one, the noble Republican patriots and
voters of that county will stand firmly
by their guns, and vote the straight
ticket. The Germans, under the lead
of such tried vetran Republicans as
Algewhar, Judge Walther, Summer
lad, Tatchen and others, have never
yet failed to drive the enemy from his
stronghold in that county, and will
again do so this fall.
On local issues the Republicans have
sometimes been divided, but they have
the interest of the party too much at
heart to permit the Democracy to di
vide them on this important election.
They will stand together as true Re
publicans and elect their ticket, al
though their majority may be small ;
yet the vetrans at Rulo under Scott,
at Salem under Rising and others, at
Falls City, Humbolt and other parts
of tbeacounty, will show you that they
are true to the party. So hang, up
your Democratic fiddle so far as Rich
ardson is concerned.
The Gathering at Hamburgh,
Last Tuesday, was certainly the lar
crest political assemblage held in this
recriou for several yeara. Tanners and
citizens from all the adjoining coun
ties and from Council Bluffs; Tan
ners to the right, Tanners to the left
Tanners in front, Tanners in the rear,
and Tanners in the center; forty fe
male Tanners were out in appropriat
uniform: youthful Tanners in fact
the whole turnout indicated a deter
mination to tan out the cops com
nletelr this fall. Several teams were
rigged out with appropriate mottou
and devices, ond carrying a tanner a
work with a lot of hides, and the
motto "I'll finish this job In Novem
It is estimated that there were 8,000
people out, of which over 1,000 were
tanners. The Brownville Brass Band
were in attendance and made music
for the occasion. Also the band from
! Council Bluffs, and the Rockport band
At night the tanners had a grand
parade, and were addressed by Hon
O. P. Mason and several other speak
ers whose names we did not learn.
It was a day long to be remembered
in Hamburg.
Iflarquette and Ilellman
Republican and Democratic nomi
nees for electors, had a joint debate at
McPherson's Hall in this city last
Saturday night. The. hall was
thronged, all eager to hear the debate
except several prominent Democrats
who anticipated the drubbing Hell
man would receive, and took back
seats or did not get farther than the
head of the stairs, where they could
run without attractingattention. To
those who knew what was going to
come Heilmas's volubility in his
opening argument was amusing. Hell
man made, perhaps, a good a talk as
his side of the question would admit
of ; that he is honest in his convic
tions no one can doubt, for he certainly
could not expect to gain anything for
his cause by telling of his rebel sym
pathies in the very commencement of
the war. He staggered through a long
and tedious hour, making many asser
tions, offering to prove them and yet
proving none; and misquoting and
garbling. He was offensively persona'
in his style of pointing at and com
menling on what his opponent would
say
When Marquett's time came he
arose, and with a calm deliberation
answered Hellman's many questions
so pointedly that each answer was an
argument in itself, especially the point
made by Hellman that McCulloch's
report would 6how the debt increased
since ho war. In this Hellman's own
notes were turned upon him with
such galling eflbet that the house rang
with cheer upon cheer, Democrats
even joining. He then gave his at
tention to. old Joe Brown, through
whom he having been an original
secessionist in Georgia, and now being
a Republican Ilellman tried to fasten
the responsibility of the war upon the
Republican, party. Marquette said
that Joe Brown, had repented, and as
repentant sinners go to the good place,
Joe Brown had got so far on the good
road as the Chicago Convention ; but
as unrepentant sinners go. to the bad
place,. Hellmans fricnd3 had got bo
far on the downward road as the New
York Convention, yet
44 While the lamp holds out to burtr
lue viiet sinner may return.'
It is impossible for us to give any-
thing like an idea of Marquett's speech.
It was grand, eloquent, and in some
portions sublime. It was pronounced
by many the best speech they ever
heard In Nebraska. His picturings of
the bouth as it was and is ; his appeal
for tne down-trodden of all races or
colors ; his eulogy upon Grant, were
such as would read well beside the
master efforts f ages, and such as
made- many a Democratic foot come
down with, cheers, showing that the
promptingof their hearts were right
despite party discipline. It did as
much execution assail other speeches
we have had combined.
Hellman then arose to-us up his
last half hour, and made us still more
friends by his bungling effort at de
fense. One of his strong points was
that Marquette reached with one hand
down South in sympathy with the
negro, and. the other over to Ireland,
forgetting his own icie$ right here
at home. He then read a stringent
clause from the Arkansas registration
act to condem it: the act was cheered,
but hi3 words fell like water upon
sand, eliciting no sound of applause.
During Marquett's speech our bcott
City friends the Tanner's Club
marched in, about fifty strong, crea
ting quite a sensation, and adding
mucKHto the Drestaire of the evening,
They have the thanks of the Repub-
HCans OI this Elflfi.

The Fair.
Last Friday we took an especial
promenade over the Fair Grounds, in
tendingto take notes upon whatseem
ed most noteworthy. This design was
completely upset by the immense num
ber of meritorious articles, each of
which would furnish food foraa eulo
gy upon our soil and climate, or
upon the skill of the husbandman,
the mechanic, or the deft matron or
maid. There were congregated, each
in its class, the fruits of farm, orchard
and garden, each bidding the tiller of
Nebraska's soil to till on, and by com
parison with last year's exhibit, saying
"verily, the half has not been told."
There were congregated the choice
stock of the country, fast horses and
fat hogs, blooded bulls and Cashmere
Goats, fine cows and calves, showing
plainly that Nemaha county, is wel
stocked with choice breeds of animals
and that her fanners and citizens are
alive to the importance of this branch
of wealth and comfort. The stock
especially is worthy of separate com
mendation, but as our stock of super
latives is but limited, we dare not un
dertake the task.
In Class 4, Horses, wereone hundred
and nine entrys, besides which many
were brought on for exhibition not
entered for premiums. Among the
exhibitors we may mention; as having
brought good stock upon the ground
Wallace Bush, W. F. Paris, Geo. G
Bryant. J W ArgabrighL Andrew
Tynan, Eli H Wilcox, John Allen
John Argabright, C C Hale, William
Hawxby, John Shuck, K W Furnas
Isaac Black, Wm. S.Clark, Thos
B
Edward3, Jas W Coleman , H B Strong
CE Phippcny, Charles Gaede, Geo
Ashley, Wm Linn, W N Richardson
Wm Daily, G J Dustin, WmBagley
Jacob Ettinger, Gee Enrpson, G. R
Davis. H Alderman, Julius Gilbert,
Dan'l Fraferr, J L Carson, J R Larkin
J P Crother, John Drain, Thos Beard
F E Allen, John Welch, T J Robbins
II L Mathews, B Chapman, J H Mil
ler, Ben Rogers, SBr'mble, P Stevens
and others,' who, although they did
not all take premiums, yet showed
good judgement in the kind of stock
they keep.
In Class 5. Sheep and Goats, there
were twelve entries, Messrs. Butler,
Furnas and Crispin taking the lead
in the exhibit. Col R W Scott, Frank
fort, Ky., exhibiting a very fine speci
men of Long Wool. This department
attracted a great deal of attention.
In Class 6, Swine, were eight entries
Messrs. W H Hawley, Isaac Black, J
Q A Smith and W R Leach being the
main competitors. Mr. Hawley had
the finest litter of six pigs on the
ground, and the next greatest object of
interest in this- group was a perfect
boar.
Class 8, Agricultural Products, Grain
and Seeds, was well filled, having
twenty-four entries. Here might have
been seen as fine specimens of Spring
Wheat as could be found anywhere
weighing as high as 67 pounds to the
bushel with a berry unsurpassed in
plumpness or beauty ; also, Com and
Oats as fine as any soil can produce
Competition was very close in this de
partment. Among the competitors
we notice the following named gentle
men, who rank as our first class farm
ers: John Argabright, Wm 8 Hughes
Thos B Edwards, Julius Gilbert, W J
Blair, John Shuck, John W Simmon,
W II Paris, F R Sykes, B F Mclninch
John Blacklaw, J Black and Geo J
Bryant.
In Class 9. Farm and Garden Pro
ducts, there were seventy entries
Here were grouped nearly all the edi
bles that the palate could desire from
m
the farm, the garden and the dairy
Nemaha county. The competition was
lively in this department, there being
such an excellent showing that the
judges had close work to decide which
should have premiums.
In Class 10, Fruits and Flowers, there
were thirty-two entries, making
splendid showing. The group of na
tive Seedling Fruit was sufficient to
demonstrate beyond a doubt the capa
bility of this soil and climate to pro
duce as fine fruit as can be raised any
where. Seedling Peaches- from 6 to 9
inches in circumference, lucious as the
lips of Venus and flavored as with the
nector of the gods ; seedling Apples,
comparatively large and well flavored ;
native; and imported grapes; Pears,
Flowersy etc.r made this one of the
most tempt ing. departments of the Fair.
Among the leading competitors we
notice Wm S Hughes, R W Furnas,
G R Davis, Geo W Bratton, Jane
Black, John Shuck, E M McComas, R
Gilmore, Mrs JQ A Smith, John C
Deuser, Mrs Jane Lovelace, Mis J L
Carson. Mrs D II McLaughlins J M
Zook and W G Glasgow.
In Class 11, Agricultural Imple
ments, etc, there were 31 entries. In
this deparment the principle competi
tors for premiums on Implements were
F ATisdel, Shellenberger Bro's and
J C Deuser, the former exhibiting the
greatest variety, yet all showing No 1
articles f their kiad. R A Hawley
entered in thi department Nash &
Cutt's Fanning Mill which beats any
thing everinvented forxleaning grain.
In this department Kilbornv Jenkins
& Co., from their yard in thiscity, ex
hibited very nice Doors, Sash and Pine
Lumber, as also did F A Tisdel & Co.
In Class 12, comprising nearly every
thing, there were seventeen entrys, of
buirtries. harness, tinware, cabinet
ware, wagons, etc. The principle com
petitors being McFall & Co, J Bauer,
J II Beason, R W Furnas, Shellenber
ger Bro's, H L Mathews and George
Turner. In this class A J McFall ex
hibited his model 6hip, the finest speci
men of workmanship in the western
country.
In Class 13 Fine Arts and Textile
Fabrics, there were seventy-six entrys
Here the ladies fairly surpassed them
selves. This department fairly glowed
witn tine quilts, coverlets, needlework
and fancy notions It would be-almost
impossible to enumerate either articles
or competitors in this department,
suffice it to say that this department
did more credit to the "Fair" than all
other departments combined.
The female riding and driving was
excellent and was one of the best fea
tures of the Fair. Everything passed-
off pleasantly and to general satis Cao
tion. There were many things which
we would like to have notieed in de
tail, yet found it impossible. One
thing, however, we noticed substanti
ally on the ground and cannot refrain
mentioning here, that was the excel
lent refreshment stand kept by Allen
& Hawley. Everything was kept tip
top and in good taste.
Altogether this, the Third Annual
Fair of the Nemaha County Agricul
tural and Mechanical Association was
such a success as will warrant us in
believeing that no better County Fair
will be held in the west this season."
- And, right here, we must say that
this success was' in a very great meas
ure due to the indefatiguable energy
and labors of Col Furnas, James Cole
man and F A Tisdel, and during a por
tion of the time the whole work of
keeping the Fair running devolved up
on Col Furnas. They are entitled to
the thanks of all interested.
Thanks to the Band and Gun
Squad.
I am directed by. the Board of Man
agers of the Nemaha County Agricul
tural and Mechanical Association, to
return thanks to Prof. Smith and the
Metropolitan Brass Band of Brown
villefor the excellent music furnished
daily and gratuitously on the Fair
ground; also to Capt. TuTTLE;and

closing ceremonies each day during

A Democratic Witness.
As Gov. Butler, Sec Kennard and
Auditor GHlispie are just now vehe
mently assailed . by the Democratic
press of this state as having swindled
the State in the .Lincoln Jot sales, it
may be well to bring A. F. Harvey,
editor of the Statesman, and clerk at
the sales, on the stand. Hear him
Democrat:
I said, in the last number of the
Statesman, thatl " know of no proper
ty in Lincoln neid by uov. Jiutler,
Mr. Gillespie, and Mr. Kennard,
which they have not acquired legiti
mately. " That
" they bid upon the lots marked down

Judge Hewett is now cavassing the
1st, judicial District as a candidate for
District Attorney, and from every
point where he has spoken, we have
the most flattering accounts of his re
ception, and of the able and interes
ting speaches which he delivers.
The Judge is doing a good work, and
from present indications we are war
ranted in making the assertion that
he will run ahead of his ticket. The
Hon. E. E. Cunningham, a member
of the Republican State central com
mittee from! Richardson County,
writes us that the Judges' speech at
Salem, was among the best he " ever
heard , and that he made lots of friends
for himself and the cause, and such
are the compliments coming from
Pawnee, Gage, Jefferson, Salem ' and
Johnson counties. Old Nemaha will
send him out with four hundred
majority and every county but one in
the district will make additions there
