than are the former. In 18G0, when
such papers as the States said, if you
elect Lincoln we will dissolve the
Union, there existed such papers as
the Qlobe, who called for the fool
killer, but the sequeal demonstrated
that these southern braggarts, as it
seemed, represented the popular
Southern sentiment, and were in ter
rible earnest. We can see that the
Stales fairly represents the general
Southern idea aud detnaud, and that
it is legitimate to hold the Democrat
ic party responsible for its declara

ignore their threats as meaningless.

an invasion of their country, aud

Cincinnati Commercial'. Congress
possesses the constitutional power,
and it is the duty of that body, to
make and enforce laws, guaranteeing
to every legal voter in the United
States the rieht to cast his ballot for
members of Congress without any in
terference by State Authority. The
Constitution provides that "The
times, places and manner of holding
elections for Senators and Represen
tatives shall be prescribed In each
Stato by the Legislature thereof; but
Congress may at any time by law make
or alter such regulations.1'
(Art. 1, Sec. 4.) That gives Congress
the power to make theneoessary laws.
The Constitution further provides
that "This Constitution and the laivs
of tho United Slates, which shall be
made in pursurance thereof,
shall be the supreme latv of the la2id ;
and the Judges in every State shnll be
bound thereby, anythiug in the.Cou
etitution or laws of any State to the
contrary notwithstanding." (Art. 6,
par. 2.) That gives "State rights" a
back seat on a sharp rail, and author
izes the spelling of Nation with a big
As it has been believed that the
law for the protection and preserva
tion of fish has beeu violated, on the
Nemaha, -this spring, wo have been
requested to publish the law, so that
peibons who have ignorantly, and
unintentionally transgressed the law,
may be advised and do'so no more.
The following is the law now in force,
passed by the legislature last wiuter:
Section 1. Itsiiall be unlawful for
any person or persons to catch, kill,
injure or destroy auy fish in any river,
creek, brook, stream, lake, pond, ba
you, or other bodj bf water in this
State, with a seine, trammel net, gill
net, pound net, basket, or weir, or in
any other manner whatever, except
with a hook and line, spear aud fork.
It shall be unlawful for any person to
set, place, deposit, or drag a seine or
net of any description, or basket or
weir In any of tho above named wa
ters of this State, aud every seine, net,
basket, or weir, found in any of the
wuters of this State, the same may be
taken up by any oue ;
Provided, This act shall not bo con
struedto prohibit the owners of pri
vate ponds or streams from taking
fish therein at any time or in auy
manner. Every person vlolaticg auy
provision of this section shall be
deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and
punished by a Cine of not less than
five dollars, or be imprisoned in the
county jail not less than ten days, or
both lined and imprisoned in the dis
cretion of the court.
This is a good law, made for the
benefit of all, and should be rigidly
enforced. After people have learned
what the law requires, wo would not
hesitate to have arrested any one we
should find violating it. There are
several splendid varieties of fish com
ing into the Nemaha of late years,
whioh, If protected, would multiply
so" rapidly as to soon make abundance
for everybody, but two or three teines
and trammel nets will prevent this
and continue our waters barren of a
variety of game and other good fish.
Now let violators of the fish law de
sist or take the consequences.
The political rider to the new urmy
bill Is as follows :
''That no money appropriated in
this act Is appropriated or bhall be paid
for the subsistence, equipment, trans
portation, orcompensatiou ofany por
tion of the army of the United States,
to be used as a police force to keep
peace at the polls at any election held
within any State."
Mr. Garfield and a majority of the
Republicans in Congreas.acoepted this
nullification clause as "meaningless
garbiage' voted for the bill on its pas
sage. Rut Mr. Garfield and those
who went with him are wrong, and
have made a provoking mistake.
The country had heard a great deal
about the Democratic "backdown,"'
aud tho above shows tho style of that
backdown. There is no backdown
about it, and the crawfish movement
in this matter is altogether with the
Republicans. The Republicans
fought for a.'month or two tho "rider"
which prevented the President from
using the army to quell riots on elec
tion day ; the Democrats forced it
through however, and the President
vetoed it. Now wo find the Republi
cans meekly acquiescing in a measure
nullifying that law, a for worse,
more obnoxious and.stultifying meas
ure than the proposition to repeal.
Laws should bo enforced, or repealed,
but nullified never. The bill is now
before the Senate, and we are glad it
will meet with a different handling
by the Republican Senators. And if
tho bill passes with this nullification
section injected, the President for con
sistency sake, if for no other reason,
must veto It.
A Good Letter From Gonernl T. J.
Morgan.
Tho fool killer couldn't find a more
appropriate victim than the editor of
the Okolona States. Lincoln Globe.
A week or two ago we published
quotations from about fifty leading
Southern papers especially indorsing
the Slates as Democratic organ, and
for its bold aud fearless style of advo
cacy of states rights. Why then is
that editor more fit for the fool-killer
than those who indorse and applaud
him? Is it because he Is more hou
est less hj'pooritical than the others?
That could be the only reason; for
that they are all alike in seutiment,
and that tho Stales is the bold leader
among them, the general indorse
ment that paper receives by them, is
sufficient evidenoe.
The States coutends for nothing
more than the Demooracy in Congress
contended for the wiping out of the
reconstruction laws, State rights, the
right of states to secede at will, the
supremaoy of modern Democracy and
the supremaoy of State over the gen
eral government. Blackburn, La
mar, Eaton, Thurman, Cooke, and all
the leading speakers of that party
have as clearly advocated treason as I
James S. Acherson, Red Willow
county, was tried last week for the
murder of Robert Soott, who years
ago resided in this vicinity, aud whose
mother aud other relatives still reside
here. It appears from tho reported
testimony that Scott took possession
of a piece of laud claimed by Acher
sou, that A. ordered him off, that he
told his neighbors if lie did not re
move ho would shoot him; that on
the 2Dth day of last January while
Scott was on a loadof hay unloading
it, near his own door, an assassin from
tho woods or brush close by, shot him
through the body, tho ball passing in
on one side aud out at the other ; that
he fell oil' the load of liny, andnlied
within an hour afterward. His wife
being present, he said to her "I am
shot and cannot live ; Achejson did
it." J. N. Lucas prosecuted the case
and is said to have done it woil, and
the circumstances leaves a strong im
pression that Acherson was the assas
sin, yet the jury acquitted him.

V. II. McCreery:
Deah Fkiend : I have not forgot
ten my promise to write you. In
deed I have thoughtof it almost dai
ly, but there has been so much to see
that every day has been full to over
flowing. I have looked forward for
years to the time when I could visit
Europe, aud my imagination pictured
in bright colors the pleasures of the
trip. But I think I can say that my
enjoyment has been far greater than
I anticipated. The experience is so
new, and the objects of interest so
varied and exhaustless that all one's
powers are called into exercise. To
be sure.there are many discomforts
and annoyances and.preplexities and
disappointments too, but one learns
to look upon these as incidental and
transient, soon to be forgotten whilo
the memory stores up couutless prec
ious recollections which will abide.
"A thing of beauty is a joy forever."
Longfellow speaks of staying by his
own cozy fireside and reading books
of travel. He says:
"From them I learn whatever lies
Beneatli each chunking zjiue,
Amlee when looking with their eyes,
Better than with my own."
But itstill remains true, as Tenny
son says, that "Things seen are might
ier than things heard." It is impos
sible, for instance, forany description
in prose or poetry, to give one any
truo idea of the grandeur of an ocean
voyage. The very capacity to enjoy
the oceaujhas to bo created or at least
developed and educated by the exper
ience itself. And so is it with the en
joyment of places of historic interest
aud works of art. One who goes to
Scotland, to Glasgow, to Ayr, to
Stirling, Edinburg, audtfAbbotBford,
finds a new interest awakened in
Burns, Scott, Knox, Bruce, Wallace,
aud other great souls whose monu
ments are all about him and whose
glory sheds a sort of hallow over the
places associated with these names.
Burns' poem, Tam O'Shanter, never
seemed so full of interesting after, hav
ing seen the tavern where Tam "got
fou and unco happy"eaud the.quaint
little old "Kirk Alloway," where
the witches danced, we stood on the
"keyslane o' the brig" "O Bonny
Doon," across which Tarn's mare got,
"But left behind her ain gray tail."
The splendid monument of Knox
that looks so grandly down from the
height of Necropolis over the magnili
ceu cathedral which he rescued from
destruction, and over the great city of
Glasgow, kindles anew the desire to
know of tho mighty reformer and of
his matchless work. We were deep
ly Interested in Scotland and only re
gretted that our stay was so short.
On our way to Loudon we stopped at
York to see the Minster. And nothing
perhaps- that we have seeu haB Inter
ested us more. We were fortunate
enough to be there during Lent when
the English daily church service was
performed. There was a splendid or
gan, the reader had a very sweet
voice and the large choir sang as only
a trained companj of boys can. As
the music rose and swelled and re
sounded through the aisles of that
grand old church, it seemed that so
far as art is concerned worship had
attained perfection.
Wo spent teujmost busy days in
London and then left with tho feeling
that we had just begun to see that
vast city. And yet we saw so much,
Cheap Side, Fleet Street, The Strand,
St. Paul, Westminster, iBritish Muse
um, The Tower, London Bridge,
Lambeth Palace, Windsor Castle,
South Kensington, Crystal Palace,
Art Galleries, not forgettiBg Madam
Tusseau's Wax Works, &c, &c, &c,
that if I should attempt to tell you
about it, it would take more time
than it did to see it.
From London we went directly to
Paris, crossing the dreaded channel
when there was scarce a ripple, and
greatly enjoyed our ride through Nor
mandy. We spent nearly a week in
Paris, making the best use of our time
we knew how. The day we spent at
the Palace of Versailles where Louis
IV spent $200,000,000 on the build
ings and grounds, will livo in our
memory as long as life lasts. Of
course we visited the Louvre and the
great churches and many other plac
es. Paris did not impress us as did
London.
From Paris we went to Cologne,
where we spent about'two days. The
great attraction there is the magnifi
centcathedral, oueof the fineststruct
ures in the world. Although it was
begun 700 years ago it is not yet com
pleted. Five hundred men are now
employed upon it. The tower is to be
500 feet high. It is now 400.
There is also a ourious old
church of St. Ursulu where the
bones, in glass cases, of the eleven
thousand virgins are kept.
From Cologne we came direct to
Leipzig aud have now been here
nearly four weeks. I am listening to
lectures by Drs. Debltzsch, Kahreis,
and Luthardt, three of the most cele
brated teachers in Europe. Of course
the lectures are all in German. I
found it very difficult at first to un
derstand them, but itbecomea easier
every day. Willi less than three
weeks experience I now understand
almost everj' sentence of Dr. Kahreis
who lectures on church history every
day, except Sunday.
I am very glad to have such an op
portunity of atudy, and hope to re
turn to Chicago much better prepared
to do my work.
Fritz is making splendid progress
in Germau. He goes three hours in
the morning to a German school
where nothing but Gerrnnn.is spoken.
In the afternoon he has a Kinder-
gartnerin spend three hours with him
walking in tho parks, playing with
his toys, talking, reading &o. She
Is very competent and does not un
derstand a word of English. We are
surprised and gratified with the rap
id progress he is making in learning
to understand and to speak Germau.
He is very well, grows rapidly is al
ways hungry, and sleeps over ten
hours In twenty four.
The term of study closes here about
loth of August. Iexpect'thentoreturn
to Chicago to my work. Mrs. M. and
Fritz will remain in Germany a year.
Mrs. M. Is very much interested In
studying the language, and is mak
ing goodjprogress in it.
The weeks pass very swiftly with
us and seem all too short. We have
enjoyed every hour of our visit, but
no place seems quite so pleasant to us
as our dear little home at Morgan
Park, to which I'm sure wo shall re
turn gladly.
With kindest regards,
Yours Sincerely,
T. J. Morgan.

same kind of ores found at Leadviilo,

As we wero taking a pleasure trip
through tho country not long since,
one of the best improved farms that
we met in our travels was the farm
and orchards of our esteemed friend
John Maley, who resides about two
and n half miles northwest of the
town of Sheridan. To my Ideas and
to those of many others also, it is one
of the most admirable places in the
county. When wo came in view of
his farm and residence, we were sur
prised at the many improvements ho
had made since our last visit.
When we arrived there we were
cordially welcomed by Mr. Maley and
his oheerful family. After a hearty
shake hands and a lively chat, our
friend accompanied us out into his
orchards and vineyards, in which he
has every kind and variety of fruit,
from the apples to the quinces. Ho
has three apple orchards or about
fifteen aores of the most beautiful
trees I have seen for many years.
Many of the trees are bearing now,
but Mr. Maley informed us they are
rather young to bear a heavy crop yet.
His young peach orchard of ten acres
is in splendid condition and most
beautiful to look upon, loaded with
abundant fruit. His old peach orch
ard is decaying, but he has young
trees set in between and are looking
nicely. Wo walked through the sha
dy groves and by the green hedges
and from orchard to orchard chatting
as we went. I was fully delighted at
the appearance of everything around
me, and at the happy mode that pos
sessed our friend. Mr. Maley Is a
genuine man and Indulges in keeping
everything well arranged about his
farm, has a place for everything and
everything in its place.
When we returned to tho house It
was after noon and dinner awaiting
us, and we eagerly partook of the lux
uries spread before us, for the pure
morning air and the ramble through
orchards gave us our appetite. Mr.
Male3' has asmart, intelligent family,
all attending school with the except
ion of the oldest girl, an amiable
young lady of winning disposition.
Both she and her mother made every
thing as pleasant as they could enter
taining their guests. Everything neat
and cheerful within their house; ger
aniums and house plants of all kinds
are there. The blooming rose bush
that entwines Ttbe porch and the
blooming geraniums- beneath it all are
attracting. We only wished that we
could remain longer, but It was get
ting late and we had to start on our
journey, air. ana aire, jiaiey aimosi
persuaded us to stay. We gave them
We had a conversation: the other
day with a Republican who was a red
hot greeubaoker last fall, and in the
course of his remarks he said : "I was
a Greeubaoker last fall, but I am uot
now. The action of the Democrats
andGreeubackers iu Congress has dis
gusted me. Their silly howl about no
troops at the polls is enough to disgust
anybody. The federal troops have
never yet prevented any man from
voting as he pleased, and the course
pursued by the majority leads me to
believe that their object Is to carry the
next Presidential election by fraud
and intimidation." Palls City Journ
al. There isn't a sensible man In the
United States that does not believe
the same thing. Privates in the ranks
of Democracy partisan lickspittles
who bawl about "bayonet rule,"
know this to be so as well as if they
were honest men instead of political
catpaws.

The Lincoln Democrat, starting
out "fresh and green, '' saysjthe editor
of the Okolona States is a "Yankee
carpet bagger." That's pretty thin
in consideration of the fact that if the
editor of the Democrat would speak
with as much honesty as does the
States, ho would oconpy precisely the
fiame ground. The difference between
tho Males aud the Democrat is just
the difference there Is between a hy
pocrite aud the fellow who "speaks
out In meetin'."
