the State excepting the Courier man,
who does not know Howe's political
record in this county. He did not go
"over from the Republicans to the
greenbackers." If there wa9any go
ing over, it was from the Independ
ents, where he went, from the Repub
licans, in 1874. We do not under
stand that he is opposing prohibition,
for he is counted for the prohibition
hill by temperanoe men at Lincoln,
nud when at home last Saturday he
said to us during a Bhort talk on the
prospects of the success of the meas

We believe, therefore, that Mr. Howe

Stout's offer looks very nice at first

is the best thing the state could do if

however, that the laws should be re

Honest labor, or mechanics, cannot
compete with the cheap wares placed
upon the market by convict labor,
and we have too many honest me
chanics out of employment now, to
foster a system that will make more
sufferers and shut up shops and factor

this to be a true statement of the case
we would not look further for a good
reason to use our utmost effort to abol

Quincy. III., Jan. 29. The Whiff ot
to-night contains a special from Sub
lette, a station on the Illinois Central
Railroad, in Lee county, giving an ao
count of the bad aota of tho Rev. H.
C. Yates, a Baptist minister, it being
asserted that he endeavored to be
baoome too intimate with a handsome
young lady attending his church, the
daughter of a deaoon, whioh caused a
great scandal in the congregation,
aud resulted in the pastor getting a
sound beating at the hands of the
young lady's brother. Yates, about a
year ago, presided over a Baptist
Church atPai'sen, this county, where
he got into a similar difficulty and
had to leave the place very suddenly.
It appears that while at Paysen he
made desperate love to a young mar
ried woman, the wife of a well-known
business man of Paysen, and that she
returned his affection In full measure.
The husband found it out, and thrash

Yates thereupon left Paysen. His op

Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 1, 1879.
Editor Nebraska Advertiser.
But little of interest to write you
this week. Nothing particularly new
has transpired. The Legislature has
been grinding on old grists Capitol
Bill, Appropriation, Prohibition Bill,
Investigation, etc., etc. Van Wyck
has introduced a bill regulating pas
senger tariff on railroads, fixing rates
on regular passenger trains, at three
cents per mile, and on mixed trains
at two cents. This Is nothing more
than justice to the public. But for
reasons heretofore given, the bill will
not become a law.
The bill appropriating $100,000 more
or less for capitol building improve
ment, seems to have sufficient
strength to secure final passage. The
same can be said of the prohibitory
measure. It is feared by some who
are close observers, however, that
these two are portions of a kind of
general omnibus agreement, by which
are yet to come, three or four addi
tional Normal Schools, and other ex
penditures not now needed, only for
the special location to be named, and
for their local benefit more than the
common welfare.
Special committees are still engaged
"investigating" ex-State Treasurer
McBride and Chaucellor Fairfield of
the State University. As to the ex
Treasurer, there is nothing more In
his case made out, than was known
by every intelligent business man in
the State before. The State Funds
have always been distributed with
various banks in the State, for which
all Treasurers have, doubtless, re
ceived interest. This has been the
custom, and while bondsmen were
good, and the money forthcoming
when needed, no one seemed to care.
The difficulty is more with the law
than with State Treasurers. Not a
man in Nebraska could give tbe-bond
required of State Treasurers, were not
such custom practiced'. If the people
wish a different condition of affairs
and they should, and do let their
representatives In legislature assem
bled, enact providing for different
mode. Representative Bennett from
Douglas, has introduced a bill, now
pending, to such effect. It will
doubtless become a law.
Brooks in matter of Chancellor
Fairfield, like Dr. Miller In the But
ler case, after throwing column after
oolumn of "rocks," aud claiming to
"know enough to convict before any
jury in five minutes," when the pinch
oomes, "indeed I don't know a thing,
or I would come and tell!" Miller
went to Salt Lake when investigation
wa going on, anu iirooKs went to
Chicago. The Investigation concern
ing Chancellor Fairfield is proceeding
at his own solicitation.
Both branohes of the Legislature
have adjourned over until Tuesday
next, and things are "as quiet'" to-day
"as a Quaker meeting.'" Members
are somewhat nervous, on botii the
capitol appropriation, and prohibito
ry bill. They desire to consult with
their constituents before final action.
After their return it need not be sur
prising if "tilings take a different
schute." The antl-prohibitionSstsare
pulling party strings, expressing fears
that if a Republican Legislature shall
pass a prohibitory law, it will drive
many of the foreign element, espec
ially Germans, into the Democratic
party. This Is being used with effect,
and while test-votes thus far, show
strength enough to pass the measure,
there is no telling accurately, as to
the final result.
Opposition to the capitol measure
has increased the past week. Tho
public pulse outside the Legislature,
seems to beat somewhat "fornenst,"
and members are inolined to "look a
little out." Hence the desire, as said,
to talk over the matter with people at
home. SiijAs.
As it may be of interest to our read
ers, we publish the following:
Humboldt Sentinel: Hon. Church
Howe is the most conspicious man
in Nebraska to-day aud is reoeiving
more attention from the press and
people outside than any other man.
He is a weighty man in the Senate,
and his -acrobatic feat of turning a
double summersault out of the Green
back party over the backs of a score
of Democratic nags and lighting up
right in the Republican ranks, is
commented upon as one of the suc
cessful acts that only Churoh Howe is
capable of performing.
Seward Reporter: It is reported
from Lincoln that when Church
Howe was approached by a prominent
member of the Greenback State Cen
tral Committee to attend a greenbaok
democratic legislative caucus at the
commencement of the session, he re
plied : "John Sherman killed the
greenback party by resumption on
Jan. 1st. Do you suppose I have come
from Nemaha County to Lincoln for
the special purpose of sitting up with
the corpse? Not much !" Senator
Howe didn't-attend the "wake," but
slid into the republican caucus.
Beatrice Express: It, makes little
difference whether Church Howe was
invited into or asked admission to the
republican oaucus. Hegot-there, and
thruth compels us to say. that the re
publicans have drawn an elephant.
Omaha Herald: Senator Howe is
aRepublican Granger and, politically,
can jump higher and tumble heavier
in certain ways than any, other Re
publican iu the State. But it might
as well be admitted that this man
Howe manages a good deal: of sense
and us much sbarpnedB as falls to the
lot of any part of tho-Republican
leadership in this State. The letter
of Mr. Howe to the Grangers on rail
roads which we print to-day is cited
in proof of the sense of that gen-,
tleman on the whole question. We
are perfectly free to say so because his
views are iu a large degree in aocord
with our own. A better statement of
the case of our State and its true rail
road policy could not be made in the
same space by anybody, and we are
much gratified to be able to believe
that it is approved by nine-tenths of
the best minds among the farmers
themselves.

The Balance of Trade.
Washington, Jan. 29. The com
pilation by the Bureau of Statistics
of reports of exports from and im
ports into the United States for the
calendar year 187S shows that the bal
ance of trade was $304,542,571 in fa
vor of this country, as against a bal
ance of $140,056,112 for the calendar
year JS77- This is" the largest balance
in our fayor that has ever been known
and the Increase from 1S77 was muoh
greater than the inorease from 1876.
The balance iq oar favor for the first
six months oyer the currant fiscal
year from July to December is $148,
8SS.036, as against a balance of $102,r
159,699 for the corresponding months
of 1877. This indicates the rapidity
jvith which the commerce of the
pountry is, growing.

A Washington dispatch says :. Sen
ator Wiudom's proposition looking
to assisting the colored population oi
the South to emigrate to new homes
in the West is fuvorably received by
representative colored men. A del
egation from sis Southern States call
ed on the Senator yesterday, inclu
ding Senator Bruce and Representa
tives Cain, Smalls, aud JRainey. They
told him the colored people are not
satisfied with their condition ; that
thoy would be willing to move, and
that local clubs have already begun to
agitate the question. The delegation
thought that 100,000 ablebodied col
ored laborers could bp induced -to
leave their homes if they should have
even moderate assurance that tbey
would improve their condition. Mr.
WIndom assured the delegation that
be was thoroughly in earnest and had
no political purpose to accomplish by
his resolution.
Senator-elect, Matt. H. Carpen
ter, iu a card published, thanking his
friends, says: From letters received
there seems'to be a widespread feeling
that I will make war on office-holders
appointed on the recommendation of
Senator Howe. I wish to correct this
impression. Whatever control over
appointments is given to a United
States Senator should be exercised for
the benefit of the publio service aud not
personal advantagB. Tenure of office
should depend upon the efficiency
with whioh the official fills his posi
tion. No office-holder appointed at
the instance of Senator Howe need
fearanj'tbing from me so long as he
discharges the duties of the office
to the satisfaction of the people.
There are two theories advanced as
to the plague now raging In South
eastern Russia, Some papers assume
that the disease is a violent form of
the true Asiatic oholera ; others that
it is the blaok death which desolated
Europe In the fourteenth century and
at a later date. It was first heard of
in China, where it raged for fifteen
years before it appeared In Europe.
In this time 13,000,000 people of that

other parts of the East 24,000,000.
