Republican DIectliig.
Brownville, Aug. 5th 1S71.
This evening a large number of the
Republicans of Nemaha County as
sembled at the Council Chamber in
Brownville, to consult on measures
to bo adopted to secure harmony -of
action in the Republican Party of
Nemaha County at future elections.
Judge A.W.-Morgan was elected
to the chair and Smith P. Tuttle was
elected secretary.
Major Calfrey was called upon for a
speech and responded appropriately,
alluding to the condition of the Re
publican Prtrty in Nemaha CourftyV
the disaffection existing among the el
ements of the Party, tLe cause, &c,
&c, also, upon the method to be pur
sued to secure unitv of action. The
Major gave much satisfaction and
proved himself to be no novice in pol
itics. Speeches were also made by
Judge Bitter, Mr. Geo. P. Eaton,
Cols. Majors, Austin, Porter, and
Rich, H. M. Atkinson, Capts. Ber
ger and Pollock, O. B. Hewett Louis
Waldter, J. L. McGee and others.
Major Caffrey offered some resolu
tions which, after a. short discussion
and slight altering in the' first article,
were unanimously adopted.
The following are the resolutions
adopted, viz.
Pi. A Qounty Central Committee
shall be chosen in Mass Convention
consisting of two from each precinct,
which committee will be empowered
to divide and subdivide itself, as may
de deemed expedient. Said commit
tee shall serve until their successors
are elected as hereinafter provided.
2. Every candidate for office shall
bo required to announ'co his name
and stake , his candidacy upon the
expressed voiqe of the Republicans in
the several precincts and pledge his
support and influence to the nominees
of the party.
3. At least ten days notice shall be
given through the County Central
Committee or its chairman as to time
and place of holding primary elec
tisnsineach precinct, hour of open
ing and closing of polls.
4. The returns of each preeinct
shall be sent as soon as practicable
after election to the Chairman of the
County Central Committee, subscrib
ed to by the Judge and Clerks of elec
tion. 5. The candidate for any office
receiving the plurality of all the
vot.ps east in the several precincts,
shall be declared the nominee for
such office, and every member of the
party shall bo In honor bound to pro
mote, with vote and energy, the suc
cess of such candidate or candidates
'at the polls.
6. Primarv elections to select dele
gates to State or other Conventions
not puiely local, shall be held under
such regulations as shall emanate
from the County Central Committee
through the Chairman thereof.
7. A Mass Convention of tho
party in the County shall bo called at
an early day, which Convention shall
select the Comity Central Committee
and ratify tho programme of opera
tions. 8. At every annual primary elec
tion the Republican electors of each
precinct shall elect two members .of
the County Central Committee for
tho ensuing year, and when more
than two candidates are presented
the two receiving tho plurality of
votes shall be declared elected. Jj
There was much good feeling mani
ifestcd. Every one expressed him
self freely and everything worked
harmoniously.
The meeting adjourned subject to
tho call of tho County Central Com
mittee. A. W. MORGAN, Pres't.
Smith P. Tuttle, Scc'y.

On last Thursday forenoon tho fa
miliar form of the late G. M. Hen
derson was carried to Walnut Grove
Cemetery, and in the presence of a
large concourse of mourners deposit
ed in that beautiful resting place. Be
fore tho hour of burial the doors of
every place of business wcro closed,
and the procession seemed to move
through a community of mourners.
The body was escorted to the tomb by
the Masonic fraternity, and the burial
services were conducted under their
auspices. The sorrow evinced as the
clods rattled upon the coffin was not
confined to his heart-stricken family,
but was largely shared by all who
suspended business to pay the last sad
rites to him, who in life was the friend
of all and enemy of none.
On last Thursday we paid pur first
visit to Walnut Grove Cemetery, and
wa3 shocked to see the dilapidated
condition of several of the fences
which were erected to enclose the
hillocks under which were laid the
cherished forms cf loved ones. It is
but charity to suppose that those who
erected s:ich fences, have since died
or remoyed, but, in any event, those
unsightly palings sliould'be taken out
of sight, as they are offensive to the
eye and afford no protection to the
mounds they jvere built to enclose.
A cemetery, abovo all other places,
should not be interspersed with aught
save the evidences of reverence and
affection of carelessness or neglect
never.
We notico that the Pastor, the Rev.
Mr. Morgan, has infused new life in
to the Baptist'Church, since his oc
cupation of that pulpit. Within the
past few weeks the church grounds
have been graded down and fenced
in, the window blinds have been re
painted, the cupalo remodeled, and a
large bell is on the way. We are glad
to chronicle this evidence of the pros
perity of our church going friends.

Fun at Pawnee.
The entree of N. M. Graves, late cf
this citv, into the confines of Pawnee
City, has occasioned such a breeze in
that little burgh as never before agi
tated its people. His stock of liquors
arrived there on Tuesday afternoon
and Graves on Tuesday evening. Ev
erybody appeared to be opposed to the
establishing of a liquor store there,
and Graves insisted upon his 'rights.'
On Wednesday evening a mass meet
ing was hold, and speeches were made
against the introduction into Pawnee
of a saloon. The speakers wore H.
M. Giltncr, W. B. Raper, H. A.
Shellhorn, L. F. Britt, J. W. Hol
lingshead, Elder Duncan, Dr. Lind
say, Mr. Phelps, G. W. Collins, Jno.
Wiley, Mrs. Frey, Mrs. Lindsay and
F. F. Lemons, all of whom spoke in
unmeasured terms against the project.
Mr. Graves was called for, and
mounting the rostrum told the popu
lace that he was going to plant him
self upon tho laws and bo governed
thereby, and would not be intimidat
ed by lawless threats. And so the
matter rests. Meantime Gravoj is
busy putting up shelves, counter and
bar fixtures, and, when licensed, ex
pects to open out his liquors and sell
to those who thirst after spirits such
as he has on hand.
It is supposed that the end is not
yet, and we will keep our readers ad
vised as to the prdgress and issue of
the emeute.
We learn that Mr. Collins, in hi3
harranguc, took occasion to denounce
the people of Brownville in omnibus,
and Judge Thomas in particular,
characterizing that gentleman as a
cat of the pole species. If such de
nunciation will help the temperance
cause in Pawnee, of course Mr. Col
lins & Co. should use it, but intem
perate language rarely indicates the
possession of a soul swayed and gov
erned by temperate or moral influen
ces, but rather bj passion and preju
dice more deadly, and to be despised,
than the slave of appetite to tho dev
il's recruiting officer, Alcohol.
Siuco penning the above the Paw
nee Tribune has come to hand, which
alters tho complexion of the story
given by our informant. That paper
says that the meeting spoken of pass
ed the following resolution :
Jiesolvcd, That it is the sense of this
meeting that wo do not need whisky
in this community, that we don't
want it, and will not allow it.
Short and pointed as a cambric
needle, surely. Tho Tribune also says
that on the promise of the Pawneeites
to pay him for his trouble, Graves ac
cepted sixty day's notice in which to
empty the town of his presence and
the blight of h's stock.
Tho Tribune does not report the
speeches, but in its article on the'sub
ject says that Judge Thomas, of this
city, is Mr. Grave's lawyer, and adds:
"If this is the case let Judgo Thomas
be passed around and spotted with a
brand of infamy that can never be
obliterated. Does Judge Thomas
drink?" We are not the champion
of Judge Thomas, never having ex
changed words with the gentleman,
and holding adverse political views
from those entertained by him, but
we feel called upon to defend him up
on the same principle that we did
Pawnee City, a few weeks since, when
uuwarrantablv malicmcd. Because
Mr. Thomas is Mr. Grave's attorney
it does uot follow that he, with
Graves, should all under the ban of
the Pawneeites! "Does he drink?"
Does the attorney for a thief steal?
Does the legal defender of a murder
er kill? Shame on the Tribune for
its unwarrantable reflection on the
character of a gentleman, whose only
offense is that he prosecutes his pro
fession in the interests of his clients.

of the finest, most expressive and de

our good fortune to feast eyes upon.
It is a family record plate, in size 20
by 24 inches, intricately embellshed
with angelio designs. Scrolls are pro
vided in which to record births of
parents and children, as also their
marriages ana ueauis. ltccoruing
angels, with glowing countenances,
bear up the birth scrolls, and appear
eager to enroll the names of tho new
born. Cupids appear at tho side of
marriage scrolls, and angelic messen
gers, with wings set for flight, at the
edges of the death scrolls. It is de
signed for framing, and when filled
up and hung upon the family wall,
will excel in value and estimation
that of any picture possible to obtain.
This plate is sold only by subscription,
at $3 per copy. Mr. Bliss has secur

this county, and desires to 8ccurthe
services of soliciting agents to can
