If every Republican will da-his duty
.there need be no mistake? made:
Mr. T. C. Hacker, of The Ad
vertiser with his family and broth-er-in-law,
Mr. Ehos Johnson, on last
.o Monday morning started on a west
ern rustication trip. They drove a
. -pair of mules to a covered wagon, and
took along teut, bedding, shot gun,
pans kettles and all necessary
'equipments for"cam ping out." Their
destination Is Red Cloud in Webster
county. They will be absent about
.four weeks We hope and predict a
very pleasant time for Dory and his
fnUilly.
Mrs. Cook & Crater this week re
ceived a large addition to their Btock
of rnillinary goods, for the fall trade.
The ladies of Brownville and Nemaha
county are respectfully invited to call
and examine them. Prices to suit
the times.
We were shown this week an ap
pleQueen Pippin which we called
big. Its weight was ninteen ounces,
and was fourteen inches in circum
ference. It was grown in Mr. C. W.
Butler's orchard four miles west of
this city. The parent tree produced
two bushels, of which this apple was
one.
The Tilden Bourbons of Brown
ville have received their new flag and
suspended it across the etreet be
tween McPherson Hall and Steven
son & Cross' building, on' Tuesday.
It is a regular American flag nothing
rebel about it, except the lower end
which bears the names of Tilden and
Hendricks. We are exceedingly
gratified to record the faot that they
ignore the confederate flag entirely,
with the exceptions noted.
Every word said last week, by
that dilapidated thing across the
street, about a meeting of Republican
gentlemen at Mr. Savell's, Is a lie.
That article was gotten up out of
wholo cloth. Mr. Gilmore and Wils.
Majors went out to Mr. Savell's by in
vitation, to get some of his grapes and
pay him a visit. Mr. Gilmore gives
us this information and says politics,
if mentioned at all, was merely in
cidental. And that is all there was'
of that terrible gathering of political
tricksters.
Mr. B. Savell, the solid old gran
ger of London precinct, called last
week and subscribed for The Adver
tiser. He says the style of our pa
per suits him better than that unreli
able thing across the street. Mr. S.
left with us a sample of his grapes
which were very large and lucious.
He also, by Mr. Gilmore, presented
us with o specimen of apples grown
on I1I3 faim. They were the "Coop
ers White" variety, large and very
finely flavored. Mr. S. ha9 our
thanks.
The Democratic State convention
met at Omaha on Wednesday of this
week, to perform the farco of nomi
nating a State tioket. The following
were the delegates elect from this
county: H. C. Lett, W. T. Rogers,
J. H. Broady and D. Plasters, of
Brownville; J. H. Miller, of Peru,
and Chas. Campbell, of London. The
Brownville Democrats gobbled up
that corner caucus pretty well, but
did generously concede one to the
country. However, the delegation is
a very respectable one.
On Friday of last week, Septem
ber 1st, a north wind brought the
grasshoppers upon us. Duriug the
day countless millions flew over, and,
comparatively speaking, but few stop
ped writh us, but there were more
than we want. They are here yet,
and depositing their eggs. They are
doing, as yet, no damage, or at least
very light damage to crops. They
pasture new rye fields very closely,
but corn, all of which is about matur
ed, seems to be untouched by them.
The damage to our county is only, as
yet, In anticipation next spring
when tho young hopper aud vegeta
tion appear at the same time ; but we
think no serious damage, Jiko that of
the spring of 3S75, need be nppreheud
ed, from the fact that they are not
sufficiently numerous now, to fill the
soil with eggs as they then did.
The Republicans of Nemaha City
and vicinity had a rousing meeting
at the school house on Ia3t Friday
evening, and got a big "send off" in
the formation of a Hayes and Wheel
er Campaign club. Good Templar
Hall was filled with an enthusiastic
audience of gentlemen and ladies.
J. S. Stull and T. L. Schick of this
city delivered addresses which were
highly appreciated as tho frequent
applause attested. A large number of
the Brownville Haye3 and Wheeler
club wero in attendance, aud the
Brownville band was down, drawn
by four gray horses of the Transfer
company. The large number present,
the speeches, tho music, served to
provoke enthusiasm and make the oc
casion a success. Hayes and Wheel
er and the Republican ticket are all
right at Nemaha,
On Thursday evening of thi3 week
the club will meet to perfect its organ
ization. On last Saturday evening Hon.
J. L. Webester, of Omaha, delivered
a political address in McPherson hall,
this city. It was the grandest gather
ing of Republican gentleman and
ladies of the campaign in this county.
The hall was litteralty packed with
attentive and appreciative auditors,
aud every one, unless it was a few old
Democrats present, were delighted
with the speech. Wo heard gentle
men from live and six miles in the
country say they wero paid for being
present, beyond anything they had
anticipated. There never was o po
litical address delivered In Brownville
that gave more general satisfaction.
Mr. Webster compared the records of
the Democratic and Republican par
ties in the light of facts, figures, and
logical argument In a manner calcu
lated to convince the undecided as to-
thefr duty in the campaign, and to
make the strong still stronger.
Wo have not the time nor the space
to undertake a synopsis of Mr. Web
ster's address, and suffice it to say,
that it was able and did good for the
cause here. Mr. Webster understands
his subject well, is an easy pleasant
speaker, does not shoot away at ran
dom, but is prepared with "the docu
ments" to prove every assertion, and
every position he take?. Mr. Web
ster should be kept in the field until
the battle is over.
THE
REPUBLICAN CLUB
Of Brownville will be addressed In
tho Club Room, by
HON. O. B. HEWETT,
On next Saturday evening, 9th Inst.,
Let there be a full attendance of the

Our young friend, Charley Chat
fleld, went to Rock Port, Mo., last
week to take a situation as clerk in
a general merchandise store. Char
ley Is a' good boy, and we wish him
sucoess.
The farmers of Nemaha County
will be pleased to know that the
Flouring Mills of Peru will bo ready
for custom grinding on Tuesday. The

us they will give every man his own.

ing at the'H. O. Minick school house
on Friday evening of this week for
the purpose of organizing n Hayes

ery Republican, or other voter who

co-worker, should be there without
fail. Quite a number of the Brown
ville club will be there, and some from

I think that if every thinking man
would consider before they vote, they
would not vote for a Democrat, for we
know that every rebel was a Demo
crat. I do not say that every Demo
crat was a rebel, for there were a few
loyal Democrats in the war, and so
there is now, but it is not Tilden and
Co. It is tho hope of the rebels to
gain their President, and then it will
be as one of the rebels said the other
day in London, that in 1S77 they
would fight the war over again. .

plenty of hoppers next spring.
Some people are not well posted
in governmental affairs; but think
there is something wrong somewhere,
and when told all corruption Is with
the Republican party, and reform

would do well to see some facts and

Editor Nebraska Advertiser.
The Advertiser has been in my
family for many years. I came to
Brownville when your paper was
quite young; It was in the summer of
1S56; only one store at Brownville at
the time, this store is the one now oc
cupied by Mr. Ponn, then owned by
Capt. Whyte; Rufus Ralney was
clerking for Mr. Whyte. But few
families at Brownville at that time
Gov. Furnas then was editor of The
Advertiser. I have been acquaint
ed with your paper ever since, and to
day I am happy tosay it Is hailed with
happy welcomes every week at our
little camp, and is noticed by all,
every one that sees or reads in have
to acknowledge it to be the best coun
ty paper they ever saw. Many of the
little incidents written by R. W.Fur
nas and Dr. Holladay, and published
by The Advertiser since the 4th of
July, I was an eye witness to, and
seeing it published it all came fresh
to my memory, especially the sad fate
of poor old Billy Myers. Mr. George
Wheeler and myself dug his grave.
Mr. Wheelor now lives on the head
of Patrick's branch, eight or ten miles
south west of Brownville. Davidson
Plasters, now your Sheriff, was one of
the few that camo with the remains
of Mr. Myers to the grave yard. How
few were thespots then marked by the
little mounds of the dead; how few
at that early day could say "I, too,
have loved ones lying there;" but
draw the curtain aside to-day of twen
ty years standing, step into that
little cemetery, and how many little
mounds have been made to mark tho
spot where loved ones rest ; yes, many
hearts have been made sad in twenty
years on account of death entering
the family circle in twenty years;
many a tear has fallen on many a lit
tle mound in twenty years ; many of
those beautiful flowers, that kind and
loving hands have planted there, have
been watered by pearly tear drops,
that have rejoiced at the sight, and
have often, I have no doubt,
'Carried the news lo their beautiiul home.
And said, behold, thoy weep."
I, too, have a spot marked by a little
mound, a little Willie sleeps beneath
that spot. I want to visit that little
mound once more if God is willing, if
not I want to meet little Willie and
mauy of my Nemaha County friends
where congregations never break up
and Sabbaths never end.
I am very sorry to tell your readers
that the grasshoppers have been flying
east for some three or four weeks.
Such armies of grasshoppers I never
saw, some days they are just likesnow
storms as far as tho eye can penetrate
upward from four to six hours each
day. Wherever they stop everything
must be devoured by them. I earnest
ly hope Nebraska will escape their
ravages this season, at least.
The little park we are camped in is
about fifty to seventy-five acres in ex
tent and &!upea from the top of the
mountain to the west; it is about half
a mile long. On thesouthsideof this
park aro beautiTul springs of water,
cool aud clear. It runs by where we
are camped in a little stream two feet
wide by six to twelve inches deep. I
wish The Advertiser and my Ne
maha county fiieuds could see all the
wild flowers this little park contains,
they aro growing all over the moun
tains. Many varieties are very hand
some. Spruce trees under which we
are camped are ono hundred and
twenty-five feet high and three or
four feet through, theso grow along
this little stream of water, which runs
west a mile then empties into tho
middle fork of the Little Laramie
river, the middle fork then crooks
around and strikes the U. P. R. R. at
Wyoming City sixteen miles above
Laramie'city. We are eight or ten
miles south of the U. T. R. R., and
eighteen or twenty north of the Colo
rado line.
Our boys are all well except Paul,
who has been slightly ill for a couple
of da3Ts, but, I hope, will soon be bet
ter. The Centennial Mine still looks and
turns out well. Very lino free gold
specimens can be seon dally. But few
capitalists have taken hold at this
place as yet. This is what Is greatly
needed. Poor men aro not able to de
velop mines. We have favorable en
couragement from some parties which
we hope will become interested here.
Nothing more special at present.
Will close with kind regards to all my
Nemaha county friends ; should be
happy to see them all; best wishes
and good will to all.
Yours with respect,
Joseph Loveless.
P. S. The snow capped peaks of
the Snowy Range Is twelve or fifteen
mi lest west of our camp. We can see
it west of Central City, Col. It looks
to bo eighty or one hundred miles
southwest of here. On a clear day the
white peaks look beautifully grand in
the distance. I iutend going to the
snowy range this fall if I can.

Teachers' Xorinal Institute.
Editor Nebraska Advertiser:
Your readers generally are friends
of education, and a few items regard
ing theTeachers'Institute, which has
just finished its labors, majT be of some
value.
The object was the qualification of
teachers to more ably discharge their
duties as instructors of the youth of
our land. Ninety teachers were In at
tendance with this purpose in view.
Tho whole work was under the super
vision of State Superintendent Mc
Kenzie, assisted by such sound edu
cators as Profs. Thompson, Stone and
Nicholson.
The first two weeks were taken up
with tho review of the common Eng
lish branches. Especial stress was
laid upon the methods of presenting
subjects to scholars. Many theories
were given whioh have stood the test
of practice. Each teacher, benefiting
much by tho methods, can go forth
into the school-room, and wield great
er influence over his scholars. It is
worthy of note that all labored with
a zeal worthy the cause, for their own
advancement aud the advancement of
others. All acting at once In the ca
pacity of pupil and teacher, impart
ing and receiving instruction. Each
one benefiting by theexperlenceof the
other and profiting much thereby.
The last week was spent In the ex
amination of teachers for certificates.
The following received second grade
State certificates: John A. Gorhring,
Beatrice ; Chas. Letton.Fairbury ; L.
N. Mills, Flowerdale; R. N. Piper,
Sheridan ; Ed. Healey, Camden ; D.
C. Cole, Peru ; H. M. Dressier, Peru;
Frank Cooper, Craig, Mo. ; Lucius B.
Church, Brownville; Lou A. Piper,
Sheridan ; Marie Sawyer and Maggie
Lamb, Lincoln; Nellie Harmon and
Lizzie Rector, Nebraska City ; M. O.
Seal, Plattsmouth.
At the close of the Institute thefol
Iowlng resolutions wero adopted :
Whereas, We, the members of the
teachers'" Normal Institute held at
Peru, In view of the indefatigable

K0T CAUGHT.
A Democratic organ in Chicago has
been looking up Governor Hayes' re
turns of personal property at Fremont,
O., dislikiug to have all the expense of
such investigation for nothing, pub
lishes a roorback to the fo'lowing ef
fect; The uncle of Governor Hayes
left him a large fortune, but the latter,
in listing his personal estate, returned
it as follows: Under the head of en
umerated items $G,120 in one year,
and $3.2G0 in another. Under the
head of personal property, not includ
ed in the enumerated items, $5,000
in 1875, and $4,500 in 1876, making a
total, as last given, of $9,700, This is
pretty well. Even when the value of
property was estimated at double Its
price to-day "Uncle Birchord" retur
ned his estate at only $9,982. After
civing away to other relatives $40,000
the balance of the property went to
Governor Haj'es, and though, as usual,
much of the personnl estate was doubt
less disposed of, the Governor still
makas an honest return likean honest
man. Its no use. They can't catch
him. The more they Investigate his
character the brighteritshines. There
is noway but to turn round in despair,
nnd demand tho withdrawal of the
New York perjurer, putting up an
honest man. If "they can find ono in
the party, in his place. Unless they
do this the Democratic goosa is cooked.
Inter-Ocean.
Everywhere one can hear Tilden
pettifoggers declaring that Tilden
broke the Tammany ring aud punish
ed Tweed as a co-worker, &c. Now
when Now York Democratic papers
like the Albany Times, always ac
credited as reliable and good authority
says he was a "co-worker with Tweed
for years," we must believe that he
was. The Times says:
"There is great stress put upon the
services of Tilden in "breaking up
the Tweed Ring." Tilden was a co
worker with Tweed for years, and
did not open his mouth against him
until Jimmy O'Brien and the New
York Times hud furnished many of
the leading facts to the public. When
it was discovered that an outraged
community could no longer stand the
frauds of the Rings, but were deter
mined to break them up, then it oc
enred to our great railroad fiuancler
that the opportune moment had ar
rived for him to make capital out of
the facts of fraud with which for years
he had been familiar, nad the pub-
I lie remained indifferent to the frauds
of Tweed, there 13 no reason to doubt
that Mr. Tilden would havo been as
mum as a mouse up to his 'ery day.' '
Now is not this record written with
in Tildens own party, an exceedingly
obnoxious one for honest men to con
template. This record from a leading
Democratic paper in Tilden's own
state is a much better helper to a cor
rect conclusion, than any of tho bare
assertions of the half silly half drunk
en and totally unscrupulous Tilden
haranguers who whoop it up for
Shammy before small crowd3 -of old
rebels and rebel sympathizers In coun
try school houses.
Wa also vote to have ail the candi
dates brought out, and then we can

That is certainly a brilliant idea,
foruuless a candidate is "brought out"
hotf is one to know he is a candidate?
