One half of theBepubllcsne of Om
aha now rejoice that Hall has been ap
pointed postmaster, while the other
half are uttering bitter curses nn Sen
ators Saunders and Paddock for turn
ing Yost out of the post office. The
Republican howla about disrupting
the Republican party of the state, be
cause Its side is out and Rosewater's
-side Is in. Down this way the i?e-
publican Is not deemed good authori
ty an to what is -best fer the party.
Rosewater Ib ahead that's all he
won a victory recently and some of
Its fruits are becoming apparent. Sen
ator Saunders has -done just right in
removing Mr. Yost, about whom
there has been bo much quarreling
among the Omaha Repupllcans for
the last two yeurs, andgalnst whom
many charges have been made but
whether true or not we do not pretend
to say. As to the appointment of Mr
Hall, we iiave no personal acquain
tance with the gentleman, but have
no doubt that he is an honest and ca
pable Republican, "because Senator
Saunders knos him well and would
not knowingly connive at the appoint
ment of an unworthy man.
TOWXSfilP ORGANIZATION.
(Concluded from fourth 2age.)
Rev. Thomas O'Gara, for twenty
three years a priest in the diocese of
Chicago, died at St. Joseph's hospital

Hon. Stanley Matthews, of Cincin
nati, was last week eleoted by the Re
publicans, U. S. Senator to take the
place of John Sherman.
The New York Tribune remarks
that "almost for a generation the
Democratic party has laoked nothing
but votes and common sense."
A TOn named Pike one' day last
week assassinated Dr. S. S. Jones ed
itor of the IieligO'Philosophical Jour'
nal, Chicago. Pike shot Jonea while
they were alone in Jones' office, and
It is supposed without any warning
to his victim, as he shot him from be
hind putting two pistol balls into the
back of his head. The coroner's jury
has found the crime to be murder in
the first degree, and Pike, and his
wife as accessory, are imprisoned.
Jones was an old prominentand high
ly esteemed citizen of Chicago. Was
65 years old.
Reformers will be pleased with the
following news from the Burlington
Hawkcye: "Hamburg, Fremont Co.,
ib convulsed with a temperance revi
val. Over 700 people who never drank
a drop in their lives have signed the
pledge, and men who used to stand
up before the bar and tako their pois
on go behind the office door when
thev want to take something, and
carry their coffee grains in their vest
pockets."
The following confirmations were
made last week by the U. S. Senate :
Frederick W. Seward, of New York,
to be assistant secretary of state; J.
N. Tyner, of Indiana, to be first as
sistant postmaster; Henry King,
postmaster, Topeka; Thomas Jerne
gan, surveyor of customs, Michigan
City, Indiana; Peter Sch wen k, regis
ter land office, Norfolk, Nebraska;
Thomas F. Hall, postmaster, Omaha.
There are 74 Methodist churches in
the city of Baltimore. It is the great
Methodist city of the continent.
Philadelphia is the great Baptist city.
A condition of anarchy is reported
of the Indian Territory, and that half
breed desperadoes have possession of
the country, defying all law and order.
Peter B. Sweeney, connected with
Tweed in the New York swindles,
and who also ran away, has returned.
There was a verdict rendered against
him for $G,000,000.
On the 16th Inst., at Aiken, S. C,
j four negroeB were hanged under the
sentence of a court for the murder of
two white men. We do not know
but this was all as it should have
been, but who ever hears of white
men down there being hung for mur
dering negroes? Negro killing al
ways seems to be "justifiable homi
cide."
A traveler at the Barnum House,
Nebraska City, a few nights ago blew
the gas light out and went to bed.
The clerk found him just in time to
restore him to life.
An old man went to the White
House the other day and demanded to
be immediately inaugurated presi
dent. He insisted that he had been
honestly elected. He was sent away
to the insane asylum. This is the
fourth old crazy man who has acted
similarly. It is not known whether
Mr. TildeD was one of them or not.
Waterson said "there Is not so
much as a single unarmed Kentuok
dan here to resist." It strikes us that
that Kentuckian would have been
fearfully out of luck had he been there
to resist.
Waterson deolared, "It chokes me
to think about It." Pity It did not
choke him to death as every man who
teaobes treason and Incites rebellion
ought to be choked and by a rope to
make sure work of it.
Thev eternal fitness of things is
ognin demonstrated in Piuchbackand
Tipton gravitating together and be
comiug brothers of reform. Tho
Republican party was never so deep
ly indebted to them as it now is for
leaving it, showing that healthy re
form is going on in the party.
The Pawnee Republican appears to
be down on President Hayes for not
appointing ex-Senator Hitcbcook as
a member of his cabinet. Reforma
tion appears to be going on where it
will do the most good.
Maj. Reno, of the 7th cavalry is be
ing tried at St. Paul by a military
oourt martial, for making a bad pro
posal to the wife of Capt. J. M. Bell,
of the sume service, and making dis
reputable statements about.her. It is
believed that he will be dismissed
from the army.
A lodge of tho "Temple of Honor"
a noble temperance organization
was organized in Lincoln last week.
Amongst the prominent gentlemen
who belong to it we are gratified in
notioing the name of Attorney Gen
eral Roberts.
On the 18th ult., at Loup City
Sherman county, Neb. George Mo
Ivellar shot and killed Edward Chap
man. They had been partners In a
threshing maohine, and quarreled
over a settlement of accounts. The
murderer has been captured.
A Frontier county (Neb.,) letter In
the Plattsmouth Herald says, "Since
Feb. 10th we have have been engaged
more or less of the time In making
syrup and sugar from bos-elder tree
juice. I never knew so long a sap
season, but this freezing and thawing
Is very favorable for the business.
We consider the sprup equal to maple
and the sugar is even nicer, as it Je
lighter colored, though of course the
maple juice Is the sweetest.'
Hon. Thomas F. Hall has been ap
pointed and confirmed Post Master of
Omaha; and now while the Omaha
Republican gnashes its teeth in the
back room, It will not write Mr. Hall's
name any more with a"Binall t, f, and

will appear in small caps in that pa

There is considerable complaintand
criticism over the act of the late Leg

Frauds.
No matter bow sharp an outlook
newspaper publishers keep, they oc
casionally get Imposed upon. While
warning others of frauds, they are not
always sharp enough to escape them
selves. For several months, we have been
publishing the advertisements of Hoi
loway's Ointment and Pills. A letter
just received from Mr. Holloway, at
Loudon, informs us that he has no
agent in this country, and that those
advertisements ure sent out by one
Joseph Haydock.ofNew York, whom
he has several times been compelled
to expose as a swindler. He says
Haydock is palming off worthless
preparations of his own manufacture,
a8 Holloway's medicines, we also
learn fhat he does not pay his bills,
according to contract. As we have
had experience with this Haydock
heretofore, we jerk out hia advertise
ment, and make this statement for
the benefit of publishers and medi
cine dealers. Kansas Cliief.
And we, too, are victimized. No
one, of course, should touch any of
the Halloway medicines for they are
outrageous awindles.
