THE ADVERTISER
THURSDAY, JAN. 4, 1877.
The latest European news Is that
Turkey 'has concluded to fight rather
than acquiesce Jn all the demands of
.-Russia. And Austria-is preparing to
help Turkey.
Tt is said that Mr. Tilden's health
is rapidly failing, and it in thought
that should the Democracy be count
ed in, Mr. Hendricks will he the Pres
ident before a-great while.
The Plattsmouth Herald saya that
twenty-three years ago the 22d of De
cember, Senator Dodge, of Iowa in
troduced a bill to organize the Terri
tory of Nebraska.
The probability is that a Democrat
will pucceed John A. Logan as U. S.
Senator from Illinois. The Demo
crats and Independents combined
have a small majority in the legisla
ture over the Republicans.
One of the most terrible railrond ao
'.cldeuts occurred at Ashtabula, Ohio,
sin the evening of the 29th ult. An
iron bridge over the Ashtabula river,
ell, precipitating eleven cars, six of
which were passenger cars crowded
with people, distance of 75 feet. About
200 people were aboard, 75 of whom,
it Is estimated, were killed being
-crushed, burned or-firowned. The ice
gave way beueath the fallen bridge
and cars, the wreck took fire Iuimedi
.ately after, the weather was cold and
.a heavy wind and snow storm pre
vailed to add misery and terror to the
Bcene. The elements combined in all
their fury in the destruction of hu
mau life.
A Singular case waB a few days ago
decided by the Supreme court of Iowa
It was a suit by a wife to recover dam
ages from a saloon keeper for selliug
Jiquor to her husband. The court de
pided that the verdict of $1,G25 against
the saloon keeper is invalid be
cause one of the jurors took a glass
-of liquor during ihe propiess of the
trial. The court consider them
selves bound to so decide because -of
decisions heretofore made. Ex
change. .Public opinion is so moulded -en
temperance reform, that the time is
not far in the future when laws will
fce enacted which will warrant judges
in inhibiting jurors from dram drink
ing while a part of the court. We
think that would bo a step forward in
true reform. Men would rather be
tried, or have their law cases tried, by
entirely sober jurors, than, when any
of them are in a"uy degree under the
influence of alcoholic liquor.
John M. Palmer, Lyman Trumbull,
William Bigler, Geo. B. Smith, Geo.
W. Juljan and P. H. Watson, are
men whhse statements will command
the confidence of the couutry, and
they declare, after a careful study of
the returns, that an honest counteven
under the laws of Louisiana, cannot
.defeat the Tllden electors in that state.
.Are the American people prepared to
-accept the results of a fraudulent
count and a disputed election ? Phil
adelphia Times.
The statements of such men as W.
D. Kelly, John Sherman, ex-Gov.
Noyes, and many other high minded
and honorable gentlemen, are to say
the least of it, just as worthy of cre
dence as are the statements of old
sorehead renegades from the Republi
can party named in the Demoaratic
list. And the former have the acts of
sworn officers to confirm their state
ments as well as the evidence of hun
dreds of witnesses from the bulldozed
-districts. Are the American people
prepared to set aside the verdict of the
returning board, with such eviden
ces before them ? Will they beoomo
Intimidated by the threats of war
aiow indulged in by many Democrats,
.andsee old Tilden bulldozed into the
Presidential chair regardless of law
und evidence ? We have an idea that
the Republican party doesn't intimi
date worth a cent, and if they find
Hayes has 185 electoral votes ho will
.be inaugurated, and Democratic at
tempts to scare somebody will be treat
ed with the supremest and ooolest
contempt.
Toe Beatrice Express of last week
ha9 a good article favoring a Senatori
al caucus. We have over and over
again expressed our opinion in har
mony with this view not in the In
terest of-any candidage tut solely for
the party's good. We declare, as we
have on other occasions, that we do
not know whether a caucus would
elect Mr. Hitchcock or defeat him.
nor do wo think we know. While we
aay oandidly that we are friendly to
ward his re-eleotlon, we also say that
party success, at this time especially,
is with us, and should be with every
Republican, above Hitchcook or any
other man. In this light should eve
ry Republican, of whatever faction,
view the matter.
The next United States Senate will
opntain the smallest majority, and on
Jy a bare majorit3, eveu if Nebraska
nnr) pverv other State that elects a
Senator do their whole duty, of any
since the Republicans have beeu in
power; and if NeJbpask&Aand a few
other Republican States, by foolish,
unpatriotic dissensions and quarrels,
and personal animosities, lose their
Senators, the Senate will pass, as has
the House, Into the bauds of the De
mocracy. This, it is feared, will be the upshot
of this-suJcldal business. What mat
ters.it then, in that case, whether our
President be Hayes or Tilden ? For
the sake of harmony -and a smoothly
running governmental machinery, it
had better be Tilden. To-day the Re
publican party in Nebraska is con
tending wittaan its power, and with
united voice, that Hayes is elected
and must be inaugurated, and each
one vies with his neighbor in loud
declarations of patriotism and loyal
fey, and In making dismal pictures of
the-condltlon of the country, the ne
groes, the Republicans of the bull-dozed-South,
etc., yet many of these
eame patriots, when ina --
mooted,
boldly declare
& wlrMUr .'n.TOWiwiM
beeleotedto the Senate than Hitch
cock; and some of them have prediot-ed-theipossibillty
of the election of a
Democrat, in case the other faction
does not desist from exercising its
rightof advocating the claims and vo
ting forthe man of their choice.
This is entirely inconsistent with
their professions on the Presidential
question. Were they consistent they
would determine at once swear "by
the eternal," or by anything else that
would make the oatli stick, that in no
case shall a Democrat be elected to
the U. S. Senate'from this State.

The following from the Fairbury
Gazette is the truth : "Taking a gen
eral view of'the Senatorial field, we
are satisfied -that Hitchcock's chances
are improving, and this Is to a great
extent owing to the development of
the weak points in the line of attack
that has been oonducted solely with a
view to defeating him by using every
instrumentality both fair and uniiair.
We do not believe that he is the best
man In the field, neither is fie worst ;
but we do believe that he is fully as
honest and oompent as those who are
arrayed against him, and oan say that
he has conducted his canvass with a
dignity and oonsiatency that has done
more than words could do to refute
the charges against him.
The Brown ville Advertiser favors

Well, we like to see people consist

have a legislature of 114 when our

for 1876 over 1872 it is 521,429:" The
trutli is that the Republican gam in
the Northern States from 1872-to 1876
is 422,395. Counting from 1868 to 1876,
the gain is over 900,000.
The New Orleans Times argues that
the South cannot afford to commit
self-destruction when tiiere Is no oc
casion for suicide, as in the present
political crisis. It holds that because
the Northern Democrats are in the

should be particularly miserable. It
wants the south to quit sentimental
ir.!ug and turn its attention to cotton,
tobacco.and rice.

lVIiat Ben. Hillof-tfeorgia Say abont
the Situation.
The following from Ben. Hill is the
most sensible of anything wo have
seen emanating from a Democratic
source.
Mr.S!U saya:
The.political situation was never so
critical as now. -Our -constitutional
system is on a magazine of powder
and ten thousand fools, and some
that are not fools, are striking matches
all round it. -
None but cool'men andpatridts who
love country more -than office cau
avert the most horriblelc1vil war that
ever disgraced and destroyed liberty
and humanity. And.yet there never
was less excuse 'for any war in tire
history of the world.
Such a war. if it come, will be the
culmination of human -crime in the
dastardly destruclion-of-human rights
bv a disgraceful scramble -for office.
In the late election both Mr. Tilden
and Mr. Hayes received some votes.
Will it not be better to have efther'for
President than to have a ruler who
received no votes ? He is too "Etupid
for argument who does not see that
the last alternative is possible. But
whoever may or may not be made
President by Returning Boards or
bayonets, one thing is certain: Mr.
Tilden cannot and will not be made
President unless he is made so by a
fair honest connt of the votes of tho
people.
That count can be neither fair nor
honest unless it be had under inter
pretations of the Constitution long
accepted and by methods of procedure
long established. The party that
now demands new interpretations, or
a new 'form or method of count will
be a party in rebellion and treason
against the Constitution, the Union,
and the "people.
I am therefore, in favor of afairand
honest constitutional count of the
votes of the people.
I am lanoring to secure that count,
and when secured, tBhall abide Its re
snlt, and so will every other man
North and Sodth. who is not willing to
destroy his country.
I am brave enough to want peace,
but not cowardly enough "to accept
dishonor.
I believe we can avert all the calami
ties I now so much dread, tf we can
peacefully inaugurate the man elected
by the people, we shall have ft new
and long lease of constitutional gov
ernment. Tf wo cannot, tfien our
beautiful, elorious. and constitutional
system will perish and my "friends
will find me on the front Hue b? the
fatal charge in its defense.
Smalt Pox.
The following paragraph Is going
the rounds of the press, aud it may
possibly be of value in some emotion
before the winter Is ovef:
"I am willing to lose my reputatibn
as a public man." wrote Edward
Hime to tho Liverpool Mercury, if
the worst case of Small pox cannot be
cured in three days, simply by the UBe
of cream of tarter. One ounce of
cream ef tartar dissolvedin a pint of
water, drank at intervals, when cold
is a certain neverfailing remedy. It
has cured thousands, never leaving a
a mark nor oauses blindness, and
avoids tedious lingering."

Hear Keenin : Speafting of the
moval of tho govenment arms at the
St. Louis Arsenal, he says :
Tho manner in which Floyd placed
the larger part of the military supplies
of the country within reach of tho Sou
thern rebels in 1860-61 is still renum
bered : but It is also uot forgotten thM
the advantage gained by his treason
was but momentary, aud counted for
nothing when the country was fuirly
aroused.
Of course. That is to eay, when
Keeuin and Storey and the other
patriots of the Chicago Times got fair
ly aroused, all these treasonable acts
of Floyd counted for naught, but rebel
lion was swept away before the Im
petuous charge of loyalty. Who
would suspect now, to hear Mr.
Keeniu's paper talk about the traitor
Floyd and the grand uprisiug of the
people, that this same Timcn had to be
suppressed during the war for its
traitorous utterances in favor of Floyd
and that there was serious talk of
hanging its editor from the lamp-post
in front of his office. Inter-Ocean.
General B. F. Butler publishes a
card to explain that his views on the
Presidential question have been in
correctly reported.- As to the inter
view about a new election, he sayes:
"I was speaking of a proposed com
promise of the question between Til
den and Hayesaud I said that there
was but one compromise possible.
Everything else was either an aban
donment of Hayes by the Republican
party, or an abandonment of Tilden
by the Democratio party, and that
compromise was that both their claims
might be submitted to a new election
under the law of 1792, if all the parties
agreed in not counting the votes on
account of their doubts of the fairness
of the election, or of the fairness of the
ascertainment of the election. I did
not and have not given any opinion
of my own of the feasibility or proprie
ty of taking that course". I simply
pofnted out a road which might be
taken if anybody chose to take it, no
more nor ho lese."
One democrat in Louislanais honest
enough to acknowledge that he is dis
gusted with the bulldozing business.
His name is James K. Julian, and
1)0 lives in East Baton Rouge parish.
He publishes his card as follows:
Hayes has- certainly carried the
State by 8,700'votes more than Tilden
although I voted for Tilden, of course
being a democrat. And I" will say
further,-that on a fair count the State
iff republican. I am an old citizen of
this place.- Many of us are sick of this
thing, and many of us hope Hayes
will be declared elected, because Gen
eral Grant wJ aevtfr" elected- more
clearly or honestly than Hayes is now.
The republicans have not had a fair
chance. We have gone as far as e
can with our plan. There is nothing
left for us after this contest, aud if
Hayes is declared elected this time.
thousands of us will fall in and go
with the loyal ourrent of the country
and slop, or help stop, this blood-let

The country has passed through a flercePrcsiden
