Hi!
"REPEATING."
THURSDAY, MARCH 1, 1877.
Senator Saunders and Congressman
Welch are In Washington.
We notice that C. E. Yot has been
re-appointed and confirmed Poetmas
terof Omaha.
As the fourth of March comes on
'Sunday, the Inauguration of the new
'President will not take p!ace until the
fifth.
On Saturday night the deaf and
dumb inctitute situated at Council
Bluffs Iowa, was entirely destroyed
by fire. It is rumored that a number
of the mutes perished in the flames.
Iu sporting parlance: In arranging
the electoral commission Tilden, Pel
ton, XelH. Patrick, Geo. L. Miller &
Co., thought they had the cards
"stocked." But Rutherford played
""highjack game to Shammy's "low"
and the "eight-spot" took the "sev
en." So!
The Pawnee Rejmblican calls the
Nebraska Iagislature "public d?ad
beats "becaupe th-ey accepted the in
vitation of the Kansas legislature and
excursed to Topeka. Now, brother
HassleY, don't bo so cruel. We fear
your habit of prematurely slopping
over, is growing on you.
It is a noticeable fact that a large
majority of the Democrats in Congress
who have favored revolution and dis
obedience to constitution and law by
preventing the completion of the
electoral count until after the fourth
of March, are of the North, and that
Jaw and order have been maiutrined
by tk union of southern Democrats
with the Republican?.

Form of Government.
The telegraph announces our latest
and best news at this hour, that South
Carolina has been counted for Haj'es
and Wheeler. This being the last
State with double sets of certificates,
the work of the Electoral Commis
sion is finished. Florida, Xiouisiana,
Oregon and South Carolina, the con
tested "States, all being counted for
Hayes, gives him the electoral vote of
the nation by one majority. We felt
confident from the time it was an
nounced that the two great parlies
had agreed upon a plan to count the
electoral votes, that as we had won it
once, we would win it again; and for
the Fake of greater harmony, we fa
vored the electoral bill under which
this result has been wrought. We
believe the commission has arrived at
a final righteous decision that a good
man has been chosen, who will give
a name to history as one of the na
tions wisest and best Presidents.
The New York Times says J. N. H.
Patrick, who Dr. Miller sent to Ore

greatest scamp of the age !" Dr. Mill
er says, "Patrick is a better man than
I am !"' Ed. Towle eays, ' If I had
known Patrick as well two years ago
as I do now, I would have voted for
him for United States Senator from
Nebraska!" Church Howe knew
Patrick as well two years ago as he
does now, and he voted for him for
U. S. Senator. How is that for corol
lary as far as it goes? How these
formers" do "reform !"
If tiie Omaha Republican really de
sires to be just and truthful in its
course towards all men in Nebraska,
why does it continue to churge upon
Elder White the crime of proclaim
ing the State of Nebraska as being ir.
a State of beggary. Elder White has
never spoken a word or written a sen
tence touching this matter that could,
by aujT fair interpretation, be made to
mean anything of the kind. His mis
sion in the past was to the M: E.
church, in behalf of ministers of that
church iu the district over which he
presides. Fremont Tribune.

The Democratic whine now being
Indulged in, that they were deceived
by the Republicans fooled, hood
winked into favoring the electoral
commission, is very undignified to
to eay the least of it. Could they not
read and understand tiie electoral bill
-as well as anybody else? They had an
qual chance at auy rate. The bill
plainly left it discretionary with the
commission to go back of the certifi
cates or not. It turned out that it was
thought best and wisest not to inves
tigate the work upon which the certif
icates of States were based. Such be
ing the case the talk of Waterson and
Hewitt about being deceived or what
they expected Hoar or auyone else
would do, is the the sheerest clap-trap
snd'baby-pleadlng, never indulged in
by real statesmen. Every act and
point settled by the commission id
fully justfied by the law, and estops
all fair-minded men from find fault
with the commission. But suppose
the commission had gone behind the
.great seals of the States, and investi
gated those southern State elections
back to the very commencement, or
on back for years before, had the com
mission ever got through the reason
able supposition is that the result
would not nave been different from
what now is that the vote would
all the time been seven to eight. And
howling Democracy would have been
just as muoh dissatisfied as It now is,
and much more disgraced in the eyes
of the world, if that were possible, by
the further and better authenticated
developments of its atrocious frauds
and rascalities designed and practiced.
ably remembered in this part of Ne
braska. He used to preach here; and
was regarded by everybody, in the
church and outside of it, as a high
minded christian gentleman and min
ister. Those here now who knew him
then, still think of him as such, and
any statement made by him as against
any statement made against him by
an upstart suci as presides now.over
the Omaha Republican, will receive
implicit credence. We have noticed,
particularly, for some weeks past, that
the Republican was making desperate
and unreasonable efforts through its
daily columns to besmut the reputa-j
tion of Elder White. But its eflbrts
in that direotion will prove futile in
this part of the State. The Rejmblic
an pretends to have a reason but sub
stantiates no charge by any witness
entitled to credit, and we are led to
believe that the true reason for the
vulgar onslaught is that Elder White
is a good man, beloved by the laity of
the church in which lie labors, and is
not mutual with one Tibbies a bosom
friend of the Republican.
In addition to the facts stated in the
above extract from the Fremont Trib
une, wo reprint the following of ac
tion taken regarding the Republican's
unwarranted attacks, within the jur
isdiction of Elder White's present
district. This proceeding will show
Mr. White's friends here the wide dif
ference they place between his char
acter and that of his traducer :
The newspapers have been speculat
ing about the new Cabinet, and grave
ly informing the public as to its per
sonnel, all without a single reliable
fact to go upon. It is rather singular
that the name of the raau alone who
is almost certain to have a place at
the head of an important dppartment
has not been discussed at all. Sena
tor Sherman will undoubtedly be ten
dered the portfolio of the Treasury,
and will aocept. This will leave a va
cancy in the Senatorship from Ohio,
which will most probably be filled by
ex-Governor Noyes. Inter-Ocean.
Hon. Church Howe, of Nemaha
county made a capital speech on the
expunging resolution. Two years
ago Mr. H. voted against the meas

those of Otoe, Johnson and Pawnee,
and he was satisfied the people de
manded that this act of justice be ac-Z1-aa

therefore vote for the measure. Paw-

At the quarterly conference of Juu
iata circuit, held Feb. 17th, 1877, the
following were offered by .Mr, S. L.
lirasa, and unanimously odopted :
Whereas, The Omaha Republican of
the 16th inst., by an anonymous com
munication under the title of "Grass
hopper Solicitors," and by editorial
comments thereon, did grossly mis
represent the Interior of Nebraska and
its friends; and
Whereas, The said paper did basely
assail and falsely accuse the Rev. A.
G. White, our highly esteemed presi
ding elder, and slander the church of
which he is an honored minister;
therefore.
Resolved, That while the Omaha
Republican is used as a vehicle of pri
vate malignity, and, either through
ignorance or malice, or both, it mis
represents the condition of this partof
the State, we consider it unworthy of
the respect or patronage of the west
ern settlers. That while the Omaha
Republican thus endorses the spewed
outclergy of Methodism and publishes
their vile effusions to besmirch the
Methodist ohurch by vilifying our
ministers, said paper is only entitled
to the condemnation and contempt of
our people and friends. That we ten
der to A. G. White our hearty thanks
for his interest in the unfortunate
people of our Slate who are suffering
from the ravages of grasshoppers, and
for his efficient labor for their relief.

A Damocratic rough of Cincinnati,
Ohio, named Eph Holland, known as
a notorious leader of "repeaters," has
been arrested for fraudulent work
done in Cincinnati at the October
election. He "squeals," and his tes
timony is very interesting reading.
It gives an insight of how the De
raocraci" manage to get big majorities
in the cities. Holland s testimony
affects teriously Mr. Bannlng's seat
in Congress and may serve to oust
him and give his place to Stanley
Matthews who is contesting the seat
which Mr. Banning holds.
The man who gives this testimony
and who, as he says "always votes
the Democratic ticket," became angry
with the politicians because after he
was arrested they ignored him and
didn't care whether he got out of the
scrape or not, and he thought be
might make the penalty on himself
lighter by making a clean breast of it.
We extract a few specimen questions
and answers from Mr. Eph Holland's
testimony :
Mr. Banning said in his conversa
tion that he regretted I did not live
in his district.
Q. What money did Mr. Banning
furnish you to do this work in Mb dis
trict? A. Mr. Banning did not fur
nish money directly ; he furnished
money to the fund I drew money
from ; I was made to understand so.
Q. What promise did Mr. Banning
make in case you aided him mterial
ly? A. He promised me I should be
well looked after.
Q. Did this man whom you speak
of from 2ev York take any interest
in Mr. Banning's success other than
iu the rest of the Democratic ticket
here? A. He was interested in the
well-being of both Congressmen here,
but more in doubt as to Bannlng's
election ; he was overanxious on ac
count of thinking that it would be a
very close contest.
Q,. What money did that man paj'
you ? A. He paid no money direcftly
to me ; paid it to other parties for me.
Q. How much did you get through
him, then? A. About $1,000; I told
this party that any part I took in pol
itics was a money consideration, and
I expected to be well paid ; I was
promised to be well paid, and was not
paid a cent after the election was ov
er; they
PLAYED ME FOR A SUCKER.
the same as thej' did the balance.
4. J?rom wuora else did you receive
money besides the amount paid you
on account of the Ifew York party?
A. Well, I took money out of my
business. I took it with the under
standing that any money I raised was
to be paid back to me. I took $1,000.
Q,. How did you get your men ? A
I sent away from the city and got
them a portion of them from New
York.
Q. Whom did 3-011 get from New
York ? A. A man by the name of
Gleason fetched out eighteen men ; I
think it was eighteen.
Q,. Who else bame from New York
besides Gleason ? A. Nobody ; not to
me ; Michael Gleason is a New York
fighter who goes by the name of
"MIKE, THE BITER ;"
he is an emigrant runner.
Q,. Did any other city furni&h men
beside New York ? A. Yes, sir ; I
got some men from Chicago.
Q. Who brought them from Chica
go? A. A man by the name of
Burns.
Q,. Who did you communicate with
in Chicago relative to the matter. A.
Well, Burns came to me with a letter
from a man by the name of Barney
Aaron.
Q. How many men did Burns
bring with him? A. Twelve men.
Q. Any other city besides Chicago
and New York ? A. Yes, sir ; we had
Q. What report did they make to
you afterward!, if any? A. They re
ported that these men had been vot
ing through the city and hatl been
very successful. Those parties that
came here woiild-goany where to make
money.
Q.-What kind of men were those
that were sent to you ? A. Consider
ed as fighters and roughs men com
petent to do good work at election?.
Fairchild was a three-card t monte
man.. They were generully. sporting
men.
Q. You say there was an Indianap
olis party here. Did they report to
you? A. No sir.
Q. Do 3011 know how many were
in it? A. I don't know how many
there were. There were at least seven
under the leadership of an Indianap
olis detective. In fact, I saw around
here, I guess, eight or ten of them.
The' are men I had nothing to do
with ; it was understood that a gen
tleman on Third street attended to
them.
Q. Did you see them at your ward?
A. Yes, sir.
Q. Did an j' of the party vote there?
A. I think five of them voted there.
Q. For what ticket did the Indian
apolis part' work? A. The Demo
cratic ticket they voted over there. I
suppose they were doing the same
thing all over town.
Q,. Do 3'ou know anything about
the total number of votes that was
cast by the Indianapolis part'? A.
No, I don't.
Q. Do you know anything about
the total number of votes cast by
the Baltimore party. A. Well, I
don't recollect the number.
Q. Do you know anything about
the number of votes cast by the Mays
ville party? A. I don't know, but
what I heard them say there was a
deal of
BOUNCE AND HLUSTER IN THAT
PARTY ;
they didn't vote as often as they said
they did ; they said they voted fifty
or sixty times.
Q. How many men had Condon In
his gang? A. Well, I don't know
exactly. I think he had eight or ten.
He had men out of gangs of mine. I
believe he had eight.
Q. How often did you see the men
with Condon vote? A. Well, I saw
them vote about three different times
in the First Precinct, Foutli Ward.
Q. How many votes did they cast
in the First Precinct of the Fourth
Ward? A. I believe eight of them
voted the first time, and ail of five, I
know, the second time; two of them
were challenged.
Q. Can that be done? A.Such
things has been done.
(J. You report over 100 "votes being
cast in the Fourth Ward, nearly all
of them in one precinct ; how do you
account for the fact that the ward cast
a smaller vote on that occasion tbau
it did on elections previous to it? A.
That is very easily accounted for be
cause we oould not get at the
BALLOT-BOXES.
Q. In what way at the ballot-boxes?
A. They had sent over a judge
there that was not acquainted, ami
the Republican party also had a clerk
there of the name of Pierce. There
wes no chance to operate.
Q. Operate in what way? A. It
would be very easy to operate if we
had the consent of the clerk.
Q. How would you operate with
the consent of the clerk? A. Get
him to write down more names than
there were ballots in the box.
Q, Then ? A. Then, when the polls
clo.se at night, get interested aud hus
tle things arouud. Have a little dis
pute there. Cast all the votes right
into the box to correspond with the
tally, so the clerks would give the
amount of names they had written
on the tall'. That is the way the
Fourth Ward gave such a nice major
ity. Q. Was there any repeating done at
the November election? A. None
that I know of. I was not present
myself; I was sick the day of elec
tion. C How then was It that the No
vember eleotlon showed an increase
of votes In that ward ? A. I suppose
It was done in the way I speak of.
They didn't have no Republican
judges or clerks at that election ;
they were all Democrats. That was
fixed before the election came off.
And this Is the way the reformers
operated In Cincinnati. How was it,
think you, in New York and every
where where there were "no Repub
lican judges or clerks" of election.
Such Democratlo infamies are coming
to the broad light every day can we
imagine the vast frauds that will nev
er be discovered. O, Democracy, thy
very name is a stench in the nostrils
of honest men.
A Bill for the Relief of Settlers

Pre-emption Laws.

Be it enacted, etc.. That when any
person who has made a settlement on
