THURSDAY MORNING, JUNE 15, 1S71.
jxmxgratiox.
"Oar exchanges seem to believe
that possibly the rumor is true
that the last session of the Legisla-
iura-has so amended a law of their
first session relative to Immigration
as to authorize the employment by
tha RtAtA "RoRrd of Immicration. of
'mir mnrp. scents. Bv the above we
can see how hopelessly in doubt the
people are placed by their lawmakers
relative to what they have done the
post six months. The Legislature
convenes, passes laws effecting the
Interests and rights of the people, ad
journ several weeks, re-conveue,
umend the law they first passed, and
adjourn again, and during all this
time.uone, but a few interested sharp
ers and public treasury sharks, have
any knowledge of what really has
"hoon rtnnn nmnt thev nick ud a bit
WW-. -, -Mr- "
hero and there in the newspapers, so
doubtfully put together that no reli
ance can be given it.
We suppose that the Immigration
law, whatever it was, has been amend
ed. Nemaha county has received no
benefit from the law as It was and we
have but little hope that she is to be
favored now. The Insane bill, the
Penitentiary bill, and the Emigration
bill carry with them large appropria
tions of the public funds. Richard
son, Otoe and Douglas counties are
the recipients of all the benefits flow
ing therefrom. Nemaha, Cas9 and
other populous counties, furnish the
eats-paws. We utterly condemn this
system of passing laws and making
large appropriations, at the dictation
of a few interested lobbies, and then
appointing these same men to execute
the laws at large salaries, before the
people of the State can know what
b& been done.

THE TABLES TURSED.
Within the memory of our young
men the Democracy were wont to
call all Republicans fanatics. Now
this word is freely used by the stifl'
need Democracy to designate the lim
ber jim portion of the same school.
That manly portion of our fellow-citizens
who believe deception is wrong,
vho hold to a govermental policy
which they sincerely, though ignor
antly believe to be just, right, and
eminently constitutional those who
courageously unfold their banner up
on the ground which they are willing
to maintain, defend, and ask for sup
portthese call the "new departure"
species fanatics. That outspoken and
truly Democratic sheet, tho Rulo
Jiegiaier, says of the Vallandigham
resolutions : "We do not fear the iu
sersion of such planks in our national
platform, for if we adopt measures
which are in opposition to our true
and inmost belief, how can we ever
dream of unity or success." The
above iB literaly true. The Democracy
don't believe that these issues, are
dead. They arc at heart opposed to the
"settlement." Their nominee for
Govarnor of Kentucky says that they
are preeminently live and real issues
In the coming campaign, and that
what has been done by Republicans
muBt be undone by Democrats. That
he does not believe that any true
Democrat of Ohio or elsewhere dart's
assert to the contrary. This Demo
cratic nominee here asserts what we
have alleged to be true, that at heart
and in sentiment the Democracy are
a unit, that their aims and objects
tend toward the Bame governmental
policy. The only difference is, the
limbor-jlm ring are deeply impressed
with the belief that to be victorious
they must deceive tho people as to
what they really Intend, and the stiff
need wing being too honest for such
wickedness, prefer to stand boldly
upon the real principles which are
bred in the bone and blood of all Dem
ocrats. Every true man must respect
mm wno lias the moral honesty to
stand in defence of a position which
tie firmly believes to be rfcht.
i
NEWSPAPER, CHAXGES.
The newspaper stock must just at
this present moment be appreciating
In value. Many changes in proprie
torship have taken place within the
past few weeks in this State. We
Lave now six standing offers for the
Advertiser, and some of the applicants
are pressing their propositions with
commendable skill and energy.
Threeof these would-be purchasers are
old newspaper men, and from their
experience and ability we doubt not
they would add much to tho Interest
of the paper if under their control.
We are not disposed to sell however,
unless a change would be tho means
of more firmly uniting the Republi
can party. To do this we will sacri
fice much for the public good.

A convention of the citizens of
the
various precincts in this county was
recently held to consider the re-location
of the county seat. It was de

this point and Ashland.
DODGE COUNTY.
The rain and hail storm at North
Bend was very severe. Hail stone
weighing two pounds of the size of
goose eggs fell plentifully. Many
houses were blown down and unroof
ed. Win. Maston has invented a ballot
box, so arranged that stuffing ballots
is out of the question. The commis
sioners of that county have ordered a
bupply for each precinct. Tho Dem
ocracy think the box is as bad as reg-
istery laws both alike being uncon
stitutional and infringements upon
estate rights. After the order has
been executed and before the polls
are open they (the Democracy) will
pass "dead iesue" and "finality" reso

white or black, to suit tho prejudices
of the voter.

Jefferson, April 24, 1S71.
Dear Sir: I received your kind
letter several days ago, and" have had
many others of like import from oth
er parts of the State, to some of
which I have replied that I could not
accept the nomination eveu if offered
me. In this emphatic manner I de
sired to have it understood that I was
not a candidate before the Conven
tidn, and did not aspire to that or any
other office. But on reflection, and
after considering the arguments of
my friends, I am convinced that this
wits stating it too strongly. When I
remember how firmly and genorously
the great Republican party of Ohio
stood by me for eighteen years, dur
ing the most turbulent and perilous
period of our history, should the Re
publican Convention consider that it
is essential to success to order me
again into the field, I could not diso
bey their mandate without base in
gratitude, if not dereliction of princi
ple. No one can be more profoundly
impressed with the Importance of the
ascendency of tho Republican party
during the nexl Presidential election
that I am, for should the Democratic
party by any means get possession of
the Government, all the might' sac
rifices of blood and treasure which
have been expended to maintain the
Union and the great principles of the
declaration of independence would
be set at naught, or greatly impaired,
for among all the government.
whether imperial, monarchial or aris
tocrtic, no combination of men can
be found more inveterately opposed
to the equal rights of all men than
the so-called Democratic party of the
United States. Undoubtedly there
are many eminent and honorable in
dividual exceptions to this rule
among those who still blindly co-operate
with it, but the constant and
uudeviating action of the party for
more than thirty years past renders
what Ib said above unquestionable,
and the speeches of their leading men
in the last Congress, as well as the
late address of the members of that
body to their constituents, show that
the party were never more resolved to
carry out these unjust and aristoorat
ic principles than at this time. Of
course, whether in office or out, In
the future as in the past, I shall op
pose such a party as long as life re
mains. Still, I cannot doubt that the
Convention will be able to find many
more able and efficient standard-bearers
than myself, and such iB ray mo.-t
sincere hope and desire, nor do I
doubt, with such a cause before the
enlighted people of this State, that,
whoever he may be, he cannot fail to
be trumphant. Yours truly,
B. F. Wade.
A HINT FORCIBLE.
Tho Mobile Register don't just like
the "advancing" Valandigham "de
parture." It contains the following :
"TheN. Y. Herald thinks that
everything looks coulcur de rose for
the Democracy since Dayton and
Harrisburge have come up to its quasi
Republican ground, and in the kind
ness of its heart towards the Democ
racy, it now favors them with a can
didate in Gen. Sherman. This is
coining it rather strong, and we cry a
halt. If we have to swallow the new
platform, we must not be expected to
swkikjw u xiupuuucan canauiate, 111
the bargain. "Poco-a-Pooo," or you
will make the dose too strong. If
there are mild Democrats who yearn
afterRepublican principles and candi
dates, they know where to find thern
on tho other side. True Democrats
have need to be fed on more congen
ial and wholesome food. If our
Northern friends won't even lot Jeff.
uavis talk, we of the South beg to he
excused from voting for the Devasta
tor who "marched to the sea," and
who "made a solitude, ami called it
peace."
We reckon that the timid policv
course will prevail, yet it is refreshi
ng and useful to see true men brave
ly breastiuc What it is imnrnnorK-
calleda "departure." It should be
called an "advance," for it advances
to a REPUBLICAN POSITION be
cauee it is believed that it is one nec
essary to command success. The out
look is not pleasant to men who be
1 eve in principle and the mighty
force and prevalence of truth."

Am Interesting Letter.
Correspondence of tho Chicago Son.
Brownville, Neb. June 6th, '71.
Dear Sun .'We left your orbit on
the evening of Tuesday, May 29th,
by the Road of all Roads, the Illinois
Central. It has been our fortune to
travel over this thoroughfare for
many years and have invariably ex
perienced the Bame feeling of security
against accident and failure to make
desired connections. The conductors,
too, never fail eliciting our commen
dation, for the reason that they never
assume egotistical importance, butan
swer all questions put to them with
seeming pleasure and volunteer in
formation which they may deem of
importance to travelers.
At 7:30 next morning we wero In
East St. Louis, where wt found the
Directors of the new Stock Yards bu
sily at work preparatory to putting
their grounds in shape. Crossing the
river wo found the St. Louis papers
growling that the Yards were to be lo
cated on the Illinois side of the Mis
sissippi, arguing that it gave to ship
Eers too convenient a choice of mar
ets as between the so-called St. Lou
is Yards and those of Chicago. A
j good time to grumble, surely, after
the land has been purchased and the
workmen engaged in shaping the
Yards. ' Butlt is characteristic of the
Rip Van Winkles of that sleepy city.
In an official chair of the North
Missouri Railroad we found our old
time Carlo friend, -J. W. Musson,
Esq., who chalked our hat to Macon,
Mo. Here we laid over until Friday
noon, when we boarded tho cars of
the Hannibal and St. Joseph Rail
road for St. Joe. Arrived at St. Joe
about 8 o'clock p. m. and put up at
the Pattie House, from whence the
spirit of our beloved brother took its
flight on tho 9th ult. Though a
stranger to the proprietor of the Pat
tie, our brother was faithfully attend
ed to by the host and his lady rela
tives, and when death laid its' cold
hand upon his pulse and stopped the
flow of life's current, the house was
thrown into mourning as for a rela
tive, and his remains were followed
to Mt. Morrow Cemetery, under di
rections of, and arrangements elabo
rately made by the proprietor of the
Pattie. None can wonder, therefore,
that we commend the Pattie to every
one visiting St. Joe.
At 3 o'clock on Saturday, the 3d
inst., we arrived at this city, which
is situated about 65 miles north of St.
Joe, and alike number of miles below
Omaha. It is iuvitlngly situated on
the banks of the Missouri river. The
population is about 3,500, with an al
most immediate prospective popula
tion of 10,000. ,
Brownville was laid out some lo
years ago, but until recently it has
had no outlet save by river. And ev
en now its nearest Railroad noint. is
Phelps City, Mo., four miles distant,
at which point the Council Bluffs
Railroad touches. But this Road has
been graded to the river bank oppo
site this point and is nqw ready for
the iron which will soon be laid.
Three roads are projected of which
Brownville will be the objective
point. Aud right here we must add
that the trade of Chicago will receive
a lively impetus when Brownville is
thus supplied with Railroad outlets,
as the people hereabouts chafe for the
privilege of shipping their surplus
grain and stock to your market. And
that surplus is no inconsiderable one.
Last year the surplus corn crop of this
county (Nemaha) was 1.000,000 bush
els, of wheat 250,000, and of oars 300,
000. These figures demonstrate that
unlike most western oitles the coun
try surrounding is ahead of the town.
Brownville has, for years, been, an
important livestock centre, and when
its Railroad connections are complet
ed, its character In the Union Stock
Yards, of Chicago, will be exceeding
prominent.
A railroad is now in course of con
struction, commencing at this poiut
aud running to Denver, Colorado, to
be known as the "Brownville, Fort
Kearney & Pacific Railroad." The
distance spanned by this thoroughfare
will be 500 miles, 260 of which will be
in Nebraska, and the other 150 in
Colorado. The line of this road will
run equl-dlstant between the Union
Pacific and Kansas Pacific Roads, at
an average distance from either of a
bout 75 miles, and will Intersect the
St. Joseph & Ft. Kearney Railroad nt
a point 96 miles west from Brownville.
The right of way has already been
obtained for one-third of tho distance
and It starts out with a capital of a
little over a million dollars stock. In
1869 the State Legislature passed an
Act granting to each Railroad Com
pany within the State 2,000 acres of
land per mile for fifty miles of com
pleted Road. The country through
which this Road will pass, is one of
unsurpassed fertility, and capable of
sustaining a dense population. It is
already thickly populated for a dis
tance of 150 miles, and is tolerably
well settled for 50 miles still furthe'r
west.
The construction of this Road will
shorten the distance from Denver to
Chicago over any other route 110
miles, and should the line be eventu
ally extended to the Pacific coast, as
it doubtless will it will bring San
Francisco nearer the eastern cities by
2G0 miles than it now is.
The people are unanimous in their
desire to have this road completed at
an early clay, it being a fact that in
some of the connections through
which the Road will noss ajrricultu-
ralists have seen their corn rot-in the
granaries for want of facilities to. get
it to market.
Every one hereabouts look to Chi
cago as their natural market. When
this Road is completed it will provide
nearly an air-line to Chicago, via B
& M. and C. B. & Q. R. R. By the
time this article greets the readers of
the Sun, the President of the Brown
ville, Ft. Kearney & Pacific Railroad
will visit Chicago, with the view of
enlisting an interest there in behalf of
this project aud we cordially com
mend him (Henry C. Lett, E?q..) to
the kind consideration of the live bus
iness men of Chicago, fei-ling asured
that any assistance they may render
the project will return to them an
hundred fold.
Crops in this section look well and
promising. Com is knee high and
wheat never looked better. A more
prolific soil for cereals does not lie out
of doors any wnere man mar 01 Ne
braska in this section of the State.
Land here sells for from $10 'to $30
per acre, according to its contiguity
to or distance from this, the county
seat.
The population of this county Is
about 14,000.
Weather here is beautiful and feel
ing more like enjoying it in open air
than confining ourself within doors,
we will subside for tho present, but
will write again.

LOOK BAD.
In glancing over the Brownville
papers this morning we notice a little
thing which needs some explanation,
to-wlt: That the Democrat is made
the oflicial organ of Col. Thomas J.
Majors, Assessor of Internal Revenue
for tho District of Nebraska, in which
paper appears his advertisement of
assessment rolls being .open for in
spection. This looks bad, to say the
least. The Democrats and always
has been, an ultra democratic sheet,
filled with abuse of Republicans, Re
publican doctrines and Republican
officials, the editor of which served In
the rebel army ; and it is an enigma
to us why Assessor Majors should
Bake this paper his olficial organ
over the head of as Btaunch and relia
ble a Republican journal as the Ad
vertiser. Will some one "riBO to ex
nlain ?" A few words from Bro. Ma
nors or Bro. Church would bo .i or
der. ftausmoutn ueraia.
We yield the floor to Bro. Majors
this week. He doubtless can give
the reason why he thus bestows his
patronage. We are as nnxious aB
friend Hathaway, and many Repub
licans of this county are more anx
ious than are we, to hear what exouse
the Colonel has to o2er for beBtowing
his patronage as ho has.
The county court will submit sev
eral railroad propositions to our peo
ple at an early day perhaps by the
middle of July proximo. One of
these will relate to changing tho sub
scription of $150,000 voted in Novem
ber, 1869, to the Q., M. & P. R. R., so
that work can commence on the
western end of the Hue and proceed
eastward at once. Another proposi
tion will be to vote $25,000 in the
bonds of the county to the Brownville
& Hamburg R. R. which i3 a- contin
uation of the Burlington & Missouri
River Rail Road. And another prop
osition will be submitted to the votes
of Clay township asking them to sub
scribe $30,000 in the bonds of the
township to the Q,., M. & P. R. R. on
condition that the road bo graded,
bridged, tied, ironned and the rolling
stock thereon, from Brownville to
Rockport by the 1st day of January
next. All three of the propositions
will be submitted to our citizens at
the same time the first two to the
voters of the county nud the latter to
the voters of Clay township. Rock

Kilpatrick delivered an oration, in
which ho strongly denounced Jeff.
Davis for his recent speeches in Geor
gia, tho remarks of the General be
ing vociferously applauded. He said:
"The papers of'yesterday are full of
shouts of approbation from the dis
loyal people of Augusta at tho words
pronounced by the traifor Davis. I
am willing, for one, to forget the past
when rebels cease to remiud rae of it
aud not before. Comrades, the time
may come when ungrateful people
may forget all these bloody facts of
war; when a traitor will be pardondd
and his crimes forgotten ; When Lib
by, and Belle Island, and Anderson
ville will be mentioned without a sin
gle passiug thought ; when no distinc
tion will bo made between the traitor
and tho patriot who fought to pre
serve ins country; when a towering
monument will rear aloft from Capi
tol Square at Washington, erected by
Southern pride, to perpetuate the
memory of her falsehearted sons:
when Breckenrldse. of Kv. the bit
terest rebel will be allowed to return
to the United States Capitol from
whence he was driven by the terrible
denunciations of Baker; when Da
visthe arch-traitor who long since
should have passed from the scaffold
to an uuhonored grave applause
may possibly pollute once again with
his foul presence tho halls of Con
gress, there to make laws for-you and
me, while Immortal Lincoln sleeps
in his tomb. Comrades of Massachu
setts, this may come with time; but
by the eternal God, not if we can pre
vent it." Great cheers.

THE ZiESBON OF THE SCAFFOLD.
ThecaseofRuloff, who died last
week on the scaffold, is one of the
most remarkable in criminal records.
The history or bis wickedness, so far
as it is known, is in itself most extra
ordinary. Some twenty-five years
ago this man was indicted for the
murder of his young wife and infant
child. The circumstantial evidence
aduced in the trial oreated a univer
sal conviction of his guilt. But as
no lifeless bodies could be found this
moral conviction could not issue a le
gal verdict. Subsequently Ruloff
was tried a second time on the same
indictment, and on the ground of
new evidence he was pronounced
guilty and was sentenced to death.
While laying in jail awaiting execu
tion he succeeded in corrupting
young Jarvis, the jailor's son, and
through him effected his escape.
Forming then a partnership of crime
with his deliverer, he perpetrated a
long series of burglaries and thefts.
It was in one of these inquitous oper
ations that the chap.terof his crimes
found its end. With this same Jar
vis and another confederate he broke
into.a store in Binghamton, N. Y.
The two clerks who slept in the
building were aroused. In the strug
gle which followed Ruloff drew a pis
tol and shot dead one of the brave
clerks. In the retreat which follow
ed, the two associates of Ruloff lost
their way in the darkness, and fall
ing into tho river, were drowned.
Ruloff was captured on the following
day. The evidence brought against
him in the trial which followed was
unanswerable. He was again con
demned to death. Last week he met
this sentence on the scaffold, in Bing
hamton. But extraordinary as is this career
of crime iu itself, it is even more ex
traordinary in view of the character
of the man. This Ruloff was among
the most intelligent and cultivated
men iu the land. According to his
own statement he entered school at
the age of five years, and soon became
proficient in all the English branch
es. When a young man he began
the study of law, and yet at the lame
time he pursued the study of botauy,
chemistry, Greek and Latin. After
ward he set himself to acquiring a
knowledge of medicine. While en
gaged in Borne of his most desperate
burglaries he was hard at work in
perfecting a science of language. In
1869 he appeared in the" Philological
Convention which sat at Poughkeep
sie, and astounded the learned savans
with his linguistic knowledge and
his acute reasonings. During these
months in which he has been await
ing in jail the day of his execution he
has been visited by many scholars
who have come away astonished at
his varied intollectual acquirements.
The man pursued his researches un
der the very shadow of his gallows.
It all seemes too strange for belief.
And yet the whole case as it stands
before us this bright intellect joined
to this career of crime is only an
affirmation of tho truth which the
Bible every way asserts. Education
is not redemption. Culture I3 .not
grace. Learning is no security
against temptation. JEsthetical ac
comphishment and fine literary taste
are not essential qualities of charac
ter, insuring to the possessor a pure
life and holy heart. This case of Ru
loff shows tho utter incorreotness of
the present thinking in regard to edu
cation. It is getting to be thought and as
serted that all that is needed to save
men is to fill them with school
knowledge. Paul, long ago, Bhowed
the unsoundness of this theory when
he said that the world through its
wisdom came ' to deny God. The
The world needs to be convinced that
scholarship is not going to redeem it ;
that for the world at large and for
each individual in it a Divino power
is necessary to restore and save them.
Even above the doors of our eohools
and colleges it needs to be written
that there is no other name under
heaven given among men whereby
they must be saved than the name of
Christ, neither is there salvation in
any other.
