room and another in which :t square

and we wish the new proprietor suc
cess. We have heard a few persons
speuk contemptuously of the tem
nnriince organization in this place.
Such remarks arc made without duel
consideration we think ; for we sub
niit that it has done good to a number ;
! of gentleman of tho city who , have
j joined it. They have ceased to drink
j whisky and to indulge in even peri-
lodical drunks, and by so doing are,
and should be. more respecteJ by
I their friends. If you do not desire 10
unite with a temperance society do
innic ini c i....r
just as you wish nobody would or
enuld force you to the saving measure
unless the ligut 01 youruu icusuu,
or the moial force of the tears and
sorrows of your family might impel
you to be just to them and to
youself; but whatever .you uo, ior
the sake of the unfortunate, uo
not attempt to turn their feet'from the
paths of sobriety.
In the year 1S70 the people of this
city voted $00,000 in bond's to aid the
Quincy and Missouri River Railroad
company to construct said road from
the east bank of the Missouri river
eastward to a connection with the K.
C. St. Joe & C. B. road at Phelps. Of
this $00,003, nineteen thousand five
hundred have been delivered and the
interest has to bo paid, and is paid an
nually. To this our citizens would
not object had that company gone on
and finished the road to Phelps, as it
a-reed to; but thev now see they
were cheated out of $19,300 in bonds
upon which they are compelled to pay
interest, for the work stopped after the
bonds had passed out of their hands,
and the prospects of ever getting the
benefit of that for which they pay so
dearly is in no wise flattering. At
least this is the general belief of the
people, and' their temper towards
those gentlemen of Quincy who came
with smooth speech and made seduc
tive promises only to violate them, is
far from amiable. But we cannot see
any way of escape from the oppression
of the taxes' ami of paying extrava
gantly for something we never receive
any benefit of, unless they who re
ceived the bonds may sometime con
clude to finish the short piece of road
through selfish motives if not through
honest ones. . .
The lesson taught our city by pay
ing for a railroad before it is made has
been expensivonnd weliope it has
salutary.

WE TAKE A RIDE.
Xeraaha City Aspirnvall-HUlsdale
St. Deroin.
Last Thursday we concluded to ride
out and see the beauties of nature, and
visit some of our friends. We pro
cured one of Morrpyv & Sperry's com-
.w..w.0 iuiuuuih ana went delow,
visiting Nemaha City, Aspinwall and
St. Deroin. There appeared to be
very little business 'doing in any of
the towns, owing to the busy season of
the year. When there is any busi
ness any where these towns get their
share all on the river and backed by
agricultural regions unexcelled. At
Nemaha City we found Birl Hoover
engaged in what he seems to be al
ways doing men and teams hard at
work removing grain from his ware
house down to the river to be iu readi
ness for the next boat down. Birl
buys immense quantities of wheat and
corn.
At Aspinwall we remained over
night uud was hospitably entertained
at the house of Dr. Crim. We met
many old acquaintances'and spent an
agreeable evening. We called at the
business houses of Capt. Minick, Mr.
Weiseurider and Mr. Tidrow, The
mammoth stocks of Minick and Weis
eurider indicate that many goods are
sold in Aspinwall. We had the pleas
ure of an agreeable chat with Mr. G.
G. Start, He informed us that he
would be engaged during the season
iu purchasing grain at that point for
Birl Hoover.
Wo parsed through Hillsdale with
out stopping, but just below we dis
covered the hard-fisted Hon. G. R.
Shook in a field by the roadside
planting corn, and we interrupted his
work for about ten minutes in a pleas
ant chat about things in general.
George is one of our ipnst intelligen t
and substantial citizens, and the
trusts reposed in him from time to
time by the people have never been
betrayed by him.
At St. Deroin we spent several
hours very agreeably with Judge Rit
ter, generally thought to be one of the
best Commissi! ners that ever Nema
ha county ever had. Like the other
places, here we found business rather
dull, but Ritter has the goods to sup
ply the people, and his long establish
ed business and his well established
reputation a3 a business man and a
clever and accomodating gentle
inn, usvira to him the big end
of the business of that town. He has
a general assortment and variety of
all kinds and sorts of goods which a
country merchant must keep to sup
ply the needs of the peopiew His
warehouse is filled, besides his store
room, aud then in another building
he keepsa general assortment of ag
ricultural implements. .He exhibit
ed to us the photograph of a grange
plow and seeder which there is no
doubt excellsany machine of the kind
ever invented for the use intended.
We also called at tiie store of W. T.
Durret who has a good looking store
room and a large stock of gooos. Mr.
Durrelt was not in, anil we had not
the pleasure of meeting him, but his
accomodating clerk was agreeable,
and subscribed for his "county pa
per." At noon we took dinner at the
table of Dr. Rice or rather Mrs. Rice
as the Dr. was not at homo, he being
at Omaha on the jury and it was an
excellent dinner. We cannot repress
a compliment to that good old lady,
for we do believe she can tret un the
best "snuare meal" we ever attacked.
Persons going. to Deroin will have no
oeeasion to go away hungry if they
will call on Dr. Rice.
After smoking several scgars at
Judge Ritters expense, we started on
our return. The weather being de
lightful, the time of year cheering
the trees and shrubbery just dressing
in their ornaments of green leaves and
flowers, our trip was an exceedingly
pleasant one, and we felt better for
having indulged in it.

Farmers will do well to examine

than any other.
E. E. Savage has gone into the

He has several choice pieces of land
for sale, as well as some finely located

John Sage.John Dundas and John
Redfern have all gone to Nebraska
City to convey a lot of fat cattle thith

Wesley Dundas is selling goods
lively at present, his prioes are so low
that people come from all parts of the
county and go away satisfied that they
can do better here than they can by
sending to St. Jo or Chicago.
We had a friendly call from Mr.
A. W. Nickell, also from A. H. Gil
more, of Brownville, last week, they
were looking at their land adjoining
Sheridan ; both propose making ex
tensive improvements this summer.
The District Lodge of the I. O. of
G. T. has been divided. Nemaha co.,
is now constituted a district. District
Lodges are held once a quarter. Sher
idan being the centre of the county
will probably be chosen as the place
of meeting.
We noticed a load of goods for
Grain! Prairie Grange going through
town on Saturday, which were or
dered from St. Jo. When the coat of
ordering registering a letter ex
change on draft postal money order,
&c, is ndded, as well as the freight
and tho time of two men going to
Brownvilleafter them aud spending
a day, worth $4.00, including team
hire, we wonder how much better
they do in ordering goods from St. Jo
than they would to buy at home.
Mr. Sage has sold his fat cattle to a
dealer from NeUraska City and has to
deliver them there. It seems that the
effort made to break up all middle
men has succeeded so far as to drive
the last cattle and hog buyer out of
the county, now farmers have the
privilege of driving stock to Nebraska
City aud taking a less price than
would otherwise have been paid at
home. When they succeed in driving
all merchants and middlemen away
and push Browuville into the river
as we have heard many express a wish
to do, everything will be lovely, wont
it?
