On last Saturday evening passing
by the Nesbit school house, two or
three miles west of Nemaha City, our
ears were greeted with music, and we
were constrained to stop. On enter
ing the building we found Prof James
H Dye and his "Excelsior Band"
net for practice, and quite a crowd of
the neighboring citizeus bo'.h ladies
and gentlemen, assembled for the
pleasure of hearing the boys play,
Riid encouraging them in their lauda
ble work. This was the first time we
bid the pleasure of listening to the
Excelsiors play, and we candidly say
that we were surprised at the progress
they have made, knowing that the
organization had existed only about
one year. So far as? we are capable of
Jutlgiiig, the band is composed of ex
cellent musical talent, and it plays as
well now as any band we know of in
'he State. We heartily congratulate
Prof. Dye who has had charge of
the band since its organization and
every member of the band, upon the
remarkable progress they have made.
- We are taking special pains to
anake The Advertiser interesting,
nd to be desired and admired by
every family it visits, and all its read
ers. Our ambition is progress aud
improvement, and our motto is Vio

and the various other shorter articles
of careful selection and preparation,
with local and general reading, can
not fail to enlist the pleased attention
oi every reader in every family. IT
we do not over-estimate our paper,

Notions at L.. Lowraan's.
Hon. George S. Smith, District
Attorney elect, was down to Brown
ville on Saturday last, and was pres
ent when the vote of this county was
canvassed. WhenSmithsaw Broad3''s
large majority in the county he in
quired if there was a Republican par
ty in Nemaha county. Taking Broa
dy's vote as a criterion, the party is a
rather small affair in this county ; but
it is not proper to so estimate our Re
publican strength. In the important
campaign of next year the Republi
can part3T will unite without doubt,
aud roll up an old fashioned Nemaha
county majority 300 to 500 majority
for the Republican presidential candi
date, aud tho whole Republican tick

A friend, who votes in Bedford
pprecmct, tells of a low-down, dirt3'
trick, perpetrated b3 Church Howe at
the polls in that precinct, that being
also Mr. Howe's voting place. The
thing we allude to was like this:
When Howe would come across a man
who- was bound to vote for Mr. Gil
more for treasurer, or Mr. Majors for
clerk, Howe, who was officious in fill
ing out tickets, would erase the name
in opposition to Gill more, or Majors,
as the case might be, and instead of
substituting the proper name as an
honest man would have done, he
would substitute false initials. For
instance, he would write J. H. Gil
more instead of i. H. Gilmore, H. W.
Majors instead W. E. Majors. Peo
ple easily forget tha exact initials of
most names, and a rascal could in that
way cheat man3 an honest voter. Our
informant says there is do doubt but
that Howe was guilty of that kind of
scouudrelly work ; that he saw a
number of tickets bearing false ini
itials as indicated, and that they were
unmistakably Howe's hand writing.
If Howe, or 3n3 other man, did this,
he is not only guiity of an unmitiga
ted piece of ecoundrelism, and an out
rage on honest voters, but of a fla
grant violation of the law, punisha
ble by fine and imprisonment in the
penitentiary. To deceive a friend by
writirg a wrong name, when he was
trusted to write the real name of the
man the elector desired to vote for, is
about as mean as if he had offered to
sell his vote last winter to a Lincoln
banker on the oapital removal ques-
Hon.
SMITH OR BROADY.
We Guess It's the Little Giant after all.
The election is very close between
these two gentlemen for the office of
District Attorney, and it appears to be
difficult to determine who has it. Du
ring the pust week it lias been under
stood that the majorities were as fol
lows :
Smith, in Caes, ----- 417
Lancaster, -
806
Total, - - -
Broady, in Nemaha,
' Otoe,
- - - 1223
- - - 1027
- - - 190
Total, - - - -
- 1217
Giving smith the election by six ma
jority. These figures being derived
from authentic sources, apparently,
Mr. Broady had about come to the
conclusion that he was defeated and
that his only consolation was that he
had run his opponent a close race in a
district really very strongly Republi
can. But Mr. B. on Monday evening
again had bis hopes revived by receiv
ing a telegram from Nebraska City
that the chances were his battle was
not lost after all. The dispatch in
formed him that in adding up the
vote in Otoe it appeared that there
had been a mistake of ten against
him ; that the correct addition of the
figures gave him 200 majority in Otoe
instead of 190 as he had understood.
and as had been reported in the pa-
pers as
tho "official vote." So Mr.
Broady out with hia pencil, and his
arithmetic changes matters slightly,
as follows ;
Broady, in Nemaha, - - 1027
" Otoe, - - - 200
Total, - -
Smith in Cass - -"
' Lancaster,
- - 1227
- - 417
- - 806
Total, 1223
Giving the election to Broady by four
votes. This is our latest news regard
ing this close contest, and we are in
clined to think the figures correct,
and the question settled as to wiio is
to serve in the capacit3 of District
Attorney for the 2nd Judicial District.

The Democratic paper of tin's city
brings out its rooster and crows lustily
over the victory gained over the Re
publican party of this county by the
election of a part of the Independent
Democratic ticket. The crowing of
that concern ami the rejoicing of the
Democrac3 generally is not because
the best men have been elected, but
because the Republican partv has been
defeated. The great object being to
break down the Republican party
even a partial success is a cause of con
gratulation with them. The J03' of
our opponentw is just as great, and
their crowing jnsl as loud, when the
victor3' is achieved l3 voles from the
Republican ranks, as if it were by the
power and numbers of Democracy
alone. It is difficult for us to see how
t he crowing of a Democratic rooster
can be pleasant music to any Repub
lican who aided in the defeat of the
Republican ticket. They know they
can gain nothing 13 such a course,
and that while it strengthens the en
emy and causes more frequent exhi
bitions of the Democratic rooster, it
weakens the Republican party, caus
ing disastrous retaliations and disor
ganization. There is not a good reason
In existence why a Republican should
leave even temporarily his o.n part3T
to vote with his natural enem3. Even
iu a selfish point of view it does not
pay, for should such Republican run
for office as a nominee of the Renub
cau party, the Democracy would be
far from reciprocating his former favor
by the votes.
We will rejoice when the day comes
that the Republican party in this
county will again appreciate and ad
here to the good old-time motto that
"united, we stand ; divided, we fall."

Church Howe said in this city
the other day that he, in all probabili
ty, would be with the Republican
party next year. Our informaut made
a remark, which we fully endorse,
that the Republican part3 does not
want him, that being kicked out of
office in Wyoming and iguored l3 the
party for his political dishonesty and
treacher3, he has gravitated to politi
cal depths so low that it would be a
burning shame to the fair name of
Republicanism for him to even claim
a membership iu the party. His grip
on the throats of the Grangers of this
county is beginning to loosen they
are about to see what manner of man
( he is, and he knows it; hence he must
ere long take some other tack, aud
will do so the first wind that seems
favorable tohisaggrandizement.Noth
ing that Howe would do would sur

"A GOOD INVESTMENT."
We take pleasure in announcing
this week that we have secured, from
Harper Brothers, New York, the right
to publish one of the most interesting
serial stories that was ever written.
"A GOOD INVESTMENT,"
will be introduced to our readers the
first week in November, and will run
between four and five months. Those
who do not already take the Adver
tiser and desire to do so during the
continuation of this Bplendid story,
can have it for the reduced sum of
50 cents, only the price of the story as
published iu book form. We make
this offer in order that all may have a
chance to read the stor3'j and at the
same time, as an inducement to try
our paper. The 8tor3' needs no com
ment as to its fitness to be read by any
one further than to say it has been
deemed worth3'of a place in Harper's
Monthly, one of the most carefully
edited, most interesting and popular
magazines in the world; besides this
we, after a careful perusal, endorse it
as one of the most interesting and
least pernicious stories we ever read.
The plot is during the late rebellion.
and runs through Ohio, Kentuck3
and Louisiana; opening about the
time of Morgan's memorable raid in
to Ohio. The scenes through which
it passes cannot fail to be familiar to
rnan3 of our readers; and the inci
dents connecting it witli the war are
so correct and vividl3' described as
to give it a historical value.
Ati3 person sending us a tiial club
of ten or more, accompanied by the
cash, will receive the paper free to the
end of the stor3. Considering that
the offer is a great reduction for the
paper, with the Story as an induce
ment over and above our well filled
columns of home and foreign news,
&.G., &c. it will lie a comparatively
easy task for any canvasser to make
up a club in any neighborhood, as the
most astute cannot fail to see that
either the Advertiser b3 itself, or
the Story by Itself, (both for less than
the usual price of either.) Is
"A G001 INVESTMENT."
An Unanswerable"Argument,
Tiie strongest argument in hard
times is economy. Louis Lowman is
prepared to sell goods lower than ever.
His prices are below aii3'thing ever
reached in Brownville. Practice true
economy price his goods, and 3'ou
will be sure to bu3.

Remember the Dead.
There is no feeling more universal
among the human family than that of
respect for the sacred resting places of
the dead. It is not the civilized or
christian man that has this feeling
alone, but it is common to the heath
en and savage. Where refinement,
intelligence and culture most largely
exist, there will be found the resting
places of the dead beautified and
adorned the most. To bury our loved
dead is a sad and solemn net of re
spect ; to perpetuate their memory is
our priviledge-and dut3. Thiswecan
most effectual do 03 erecting tombs
or monuments, that succeeding gene
rations ma3 see, as they pass b3 that
there slumber those that were not neg
lected or forgotten b those who in
life claimed to love and esteem them.
Delay Is the reason why so man3
graves are neglected and unmarked.
We were impressed with such tho'ts
as these at the Brownville Marble
Works, which we visited one da3 last
week ; where we saw so man3 mag
nificent speciinensof Memorial Stones
that we cannot refrain a few special

Now the campaign is over, we can
look over the events of the last few
weeks with unprejudiced eyes, see
where we have been at fault, and if
we are wise remedy the defects before
the "big fight" next fall.
I will not, however, intrude upon
you a length3 article this time, as I
merely take 013 pen in hand, with
your permission, and through thecol
umnsof your valuable paper, to re
turn U13 sincere and grateful thanks
to the numerous friends who so kind
ly suppr rted me on the 12th inst ; and
should the3 on some future occasion
see fit to give me anotlleropportunity
"to fight the battle o'er again," they
will find me ready to take up arms
once more on the side of Liberty,
Equality, Progress and Reform, as I
am not the man to desert my flag on
account of one or a dozen reverses.
This0is a great county. we can
stand the drouth one year, grasshop
pers the next, nud it will go hard with
us indeed if we cannot stand Jarvis
S. Church two 3ears more, aud still
be happy.
In conclusion let me again express
m3 thanks to ni3friends, and with
out enmit3 to any one hot excepting
poor little Stephen Qilbert.) take 013
leave for the present.

There is to bean excursion from
Lincoln of three to five hundred per
sons, to visit the Normal School.
Called on Mood3 in his his new
store. He has everything arranged
with taste, and will sell as cheap ns
an3 one.
Wanted. A side-walk from the
Normal building to the depot. The
town hoard should take steps In that
direction.
Wanted. A printing press at
this place. Think some man would
do well by editing a paper here. The
town would help start a paper.
Tho county paper is the greatest
educator of tho country. Through
its columns wo exchange thoughts,
and b3' exchanging thoughts we be
come wiser. Let us contribute more

Taking into account the fact that
the C grade in the Normal School has
been dismissed, we havo more stu

one hundred and fifty eurolled
which shows an increase of interest
in the cause of education.

"Pietro" seems to be a bold and
fearless writer. Many would fear as
sassination, to speak of the oorrupt
ness of the politics and police of New
York Cit3 as be does ; but I presume
that "a good case makes a stout
heart."
The election passed off quietly ;
every aspirant in the precinct bub one
receiving an office of some kind. Iu
counting the votes the ticket allowed
the worst mixed vote that I ever saw
at an election in this precinct. At
least one-half of the number of can
didates on the Independent ticket
were exchanged for Republican can
didates, and the same course pursued
en the Republican ticket.
I would like to have seen the Re
publioan ticket elected throughout
the count3 offices ; but as it Is believe
we nave agood class of men elected.
The most interest taken here seemed
to bo in defeating Mr Plasters for
Sheriff, and 3et every one speaks of
him in terms of praise, both as a gen

has had the position longenough and
should not have asked for it again.

LONDON LISPJNGS.
As the riay wa3 closing, nncr th
shades of nlglrt were gathering Oct.
16th, H. P. Manning passed from
earth to spirit-life, at his residence In
London. He had suffered severe!
for a number of weeks, bnthenow
rests from a!! earthly suffering or sor
row. Funeral at the Melhodlat
Church, and Iargei; attended. Ser
vices conducted hy Rev. RIcharda, of
Brownville. assisted by Rev. Buruh,
of Peru. Judge Alex. McKInney ad
ded some sympathetic words. During"
the service, many heartfelt thoughts
were expressed in beautiful words.
The illustration of spiritual thihgs by
natural ones, b3 Rev. Richards, were
admirable. Mr Manning as active
and energetic, which made him a
prominent citizen ; and zealous for
the church of which he was an es-
teemed and active member for over
forty years. He was deeply religious
perhaps there Is not a person who
ever heard him converse, but can re
member of him saying something
about "spiritual things." My last
conversation with him was about the
"mansion on tho otherside,'' to which
he is now gone. His bereaved family
were almost inconsolable In their
grief. Human sympathy Is to be val
ued; but help must come from a
higher source to heal the broken hearti
Ma3 Heavenly consolation be richly
administered unto tbem ; and as they
pass under tho cloud, may they be en
a6led to see tho brightness "beyond,"
and walk in the "light of God" until
life's journey Is over, and they go to
dwell In the mansions of tho Father's"
house.
The Grangers conducted the buriali
with the ceremonies of their order,
which were beautiful, some church
rites connected, ranking the ceremo
nies ver3 impressive and instructive.
The shades of night were gathering
when (he friends left the body in its
long repose "beneath the clods of the -valley."
With the Grangers we sa,
Brother Manning, farewell.
