i JLast Sunday afternoon we had a
very heavy rain and a spriukle of hail.
Morton, Saturday night, "repeated
the 'exploded lie that thecommittee
founded Garfield guilty.
'We regret.that "Clay's" article on
the Sheridan copperhead bow-wow,
reached us too late for this issue.
The Hancock boom in Xeraaha
county i3 provi:;; to le the flailest
thing out a dead Hash in the pari.
- Tipton goes to California to tell
the people therejwhat a great mistake
the;Republican party made in nominat.
ing-Garfield, and leaving Grant out in
the cold.
.Morton's" most intimate friends
and admirers say his speech in this
place Saturday evening was the poorest
they ever heard him make a com
plete failure.
Dr. A.. S. Holladay now, and al
ways as heretofore a dyed in the wool
Democrat, this year trains politically
with, and will vole with William A.
rolock.heretofore the blackest of black
Republicans. What strauge lmd-f el
lows politics do make. Eh?.
Peru HeraVI: There was a re
union of the family of S. P. Majors at
"VV. G. Glasgow's last Thursday. The
venerable S. P. Majors and wife, with
their sons, sons-in-law, daughters and
a. daughter-in-law, and grand-children
were present, numbering in all twenty
seven. They had a very pleasant time.
When CftiCigo was so terribly
scourged by the great fire, and other
wealthy men were subscribing their
6100, .",00, 81,000, and So.000, Eng
lish, the Democratic candidate for vice
President was called upon for a contri
bution, llagacejust one dollar. He
It estimated to be worth three millions
dollars.
Notwithstanding the advertise
ments, and hundreds of flaming post
ers, stuck on every tree, fence and pig
pen in the county, announcing the
Hancock ra'ly at Sheridan, there nev
er was a more ridiculous failure and
fizzle than that affair. By actual
count of men, women, children, Demo
crats and Republicans, there was less
than 300 people present to hear gran
ny Tipton squeal, 'and thatmagnificent
bag of wind flop and flounder through
an hour of lies about Republicans and
apologies for rebels. The Garfieldeijs
at several of their meetings here, with
out an effort for a big crowd, was far
ahead of that i5he?idancollapse.
The speech of 3. Sterling Morton
at the opera house in this city, on Sat
urday night last, was a rehash, simply,
of his agricultural speech at Hastings
last fall "The crop of taxes and who
planted them." He don't understand
how it costs more to run a State with
u half million of people, than with less
than sixty thousand, when we were ad
mitted a State, and in addition, grossly
misrepresents the fact He charges
all the railroad, school house, court
bouse and agricultural implement debt
of the State to the Republican party.
Matters no more chargeable to a polit-
ieal organization than the rain and hail
storm of Sunday last.
He also charged the public lands used
in building railroads inthisState to the
Republican party. Th.it was rather a
delicate subject to touch upon in this
county, as chargeable to Republicans.
It was something like Polock's refer
ence to the salary grab, while Tipton
.was on the platform near him some
IkkIv's toes some of the brethren
were stepped on. He dropped that fea
ture of his harangue rather suddenly,
doubtless rememberinghe was striking
at some of his own political family. He
made an unfortunate reference too, to
the matter of McBride and a National
Bank in Lincoln. The president, and
principal stockholder of that bank, is
-Mr. .John titzeeraldj an uncompro
mising Democrat, if we are correctly
' informed.
Morion still harps oil "Dave Butler"
i sndJthe admission of Nebraska ns a
State. He never will forget tfie politi-
cal drubbing David gave him in that
race.
Like all other Democratic spouters
. of to-day, Morton Js a great admirer of
Union generals who trounced the reb
els during the war. During the war
these same Union generals for the same
acts, were denounced as brutes, tramp
ling under foot, helpless American cit
izens. He thinks Washington, Jackson
and even the Savior were pigmies be
side Hancock.
He claimed the "solid South," with
about all the Northern States except
Nebraska, for Hancock.

Mrs. August was an excellent woman,
and in her death Mr. August has sus
tained an irreparable loss, lie has our
heartfelt sympathy.
The Democratic newspapers speak
ing of Gen. Garfield say of him deri
sively "The one-horse Camvbellite
preacher." There are many of the
Christian people in this county, who
knowing Gen. Garfield intimately, and
personally; will appieciate this left
hand compliment.
The honest and pious editor of the
Granger don't seem tolike my refer
ence to his famous gold pen transact
ion. Would he like to hear something
in relation to a certain Library and
Musical.'Organ transaction, when he
was principal of the Brownville High
School or rather when he left the
school? Would he? Zimki.
On the evening of Friday 13th
inst, the Republicans' will hold a rous
ing meeting at Sheridan. Col. Sam
Rich andT. L. Sch'ck, Esq., wi1l be the
speakers, and will be accompanied to
Sheridan by the Brownville Garfield
Guards, in force,-uniforms, flambeaus
and martial music. Let the Republi
cans of the county rally to Sheridan
on that occasion.
It began raining here Thursday
night last week and kept it up wth
only slight intermissions until noon
Friday. It rained very. hard much of
the time, nmi the ground was thoough
ly soaked. The benefits of this rani
was neailv incalculable, considering its
good effects on the late and.eavly corn,
potatoes, cabbage and hay fields. That
rain insures as good average corn crop
as was ever grown in the county. The
average cannot be less, with early con
than 70 bushels to the acre.
The Democrats claimed too that Col.
O. H. Irish, formeily of this State, now
of Washington City, had gone over to
Hancock. The Colonel publishes a
long strong letter of denial, closing by
saying: "I shall support General Gar
field, who in war and in the peace that
followed has served but one party, and
that the one which has always follow
ed the flag of the Union, rather than
Hancock, who has left the side of his
compatriots, and now seeks to lead
those who sought our flag's humilia
tion." -
' If there should be any laCk of
means on the part of the Democracy to
defray the expenses of Senator "Tipton
in canvassing this and other counties
in the State, we are authorized to say
the Garfield club will meet arty de
ficiency that may be found. Tipton is
doing magnificent work for us. Last
fall he did the same thing. "We hope
he will continue id preach State rights
;is interpreted by Bob Toombs and
Jeff. Davis. If Bro. Polock would
give us a few turns on "back pay"
pension back pay, as well as "salary
grab" "back pay," it would aid our
cause very materially. Come, gentle
men, tell the people all you know
about "the corrupt Republicari party."
You have nideo in running it so many
years you ought to know all about it.
The people would like to know how
you managed things, and just where
you cut loose from the corruption part
of the machine. Was it when Tipton's
son failed in appointment he desired
Grant to give him. or when Polock
failed to obtain the census position so
ably filled by Col. Rich ! Which ?
Gapt. J. Xi. Mitchell,
Of Nebraska City will address- the
Garfield and Arthur Club, this Thurs
day evening, in the opera house. Capt
Ml is one of the finest lawyers1 of the
State,1 and has few superiors "in the
west as a public speaker. Let every
body be on hand Thursdayevening.
The ladies areJumted.The7gnards
will be out. Let there be a rousing
meeting.
A week or two ago The Adver
tiser named, Judge Black, Don. Piatt,
Senator Sherman and other more prom
inent Democrats -as indorsing Gen.
Garfield as an honest man. The
Granger to rebut this named Gen.
Banks, Judge Poland, Judge McCrary
as Republican witnesses that Garfield
is a dishonest man. At the time we
did not know but these prominent Re
publicans were opposing Gen. Garfield,
but we have since learned, as all our
readers have, that tfrese-gentlemen are
warmly supporting Gen. Garfield, and
have, in letters or speeches, declared
their confidence in his purity, honesty
and integrity ; and thus conclusively
proving that the Granger vtiliu'ly lied.
The Republican witnesses it called to
sustain its falsehoods about Gar.ield,
instead of doing so unite with the
Democratic statesmen wo named in
vindicating our candidate. And we
may cite the -words of our Democratic
witnesses and those of the Granger's
Republican witnesses to prove that the
Granger's attacks on Gen. Garfield
were and are a garbled mass of miser
able lies. The mode of warfare adopt
ed by the Granger shows the straits
our enemy is in, and the contemptible
subterfuges that they are compelled to
resort to. We may add that there is not
a single change against Gen. Garfield's
purity of character, in any respect,
that is not as baseless as the Mobilier
charge, and there is not a single charge
in existence against Gen. Garfield that
is not a bare faced falsehood
tained by a single fact.

Wm. IT. mall has some good
pictures hanging on the outer wall
that is, they ate not good for Demo
crats. The large picture, or combina
tion of pictures showing some of the
horrible scenes of rebel cruelty at An
dersonville, filled some of the Demo-c-ats
with rage. They were not at a
loss to interpret the significance and
make the proper application, and some
of them from the fullness of their
hearts defended that hell by asserting
that there was "just as much suffering
in some of the Republican prisons."
Small has another picture showing
the figures of the public debt each year
riora 1S00 to 1SS0.
On the left stands some tax payers
who avclookingatthemonslrous sums
they are charged with by reason of the
Democratic rebellion. On the right
strnds fair Columbia who points to the
great debt and asks, "Whch w'll you
trust, those Who made the debt or those
who thus far have paid itV Another
picture is of a big bloat of asoldier with
a coffin on his back marked "Tilden
and Re-'orm." By the side-of the
soldier stands Henry Waterson of the
Courier-Journal, who whi'e buckling
the load securely on thesoldier's shoul
ders remarks, "You may ca.'ry this
now, I have carried it long enough."
The most interesting part of the pic
ture are the cipher dispatches and prop
ositions for bribery, upon which the
corpse reposes on the inside.

The g. e. of this place, with the Oma
ha Herald and other Hancock lights,
claim John I. Redickof Omaha as a re
cent convert to the rebel side of poli
tics, and have piomised li3 would be
out in a card, over his own signature
to that effect. Thus far John has not
given such public notice of his conver
sion. It is said fie has on file at Wash
ington fourteen applicatibns for Fed
eral positions. The insinuations of
John I. if he has made any, are sup
posed to be for the purpose of rushing
up action on some of his applications.
Should favorable consideration be se
cured, he will, most likely shout for
Gaifield. If not, then for the" "other
fellow." Redick was an original Dem
ocrat and remained with that organi
zation while it distributed patronage.

"WAP," whichheing interpreted,
means "W. A. Polock, writes the Oma
ha Herald July 20, telling Miller how
"we Democrats are going to carry Xe
maha this fall for Hancock and Eng
lish." There is a vast amount, of in
formation contained in this letter. He
says: "this county is the home of Col.
Tom. Majors and Church Howe!"
That's news! Further: "The Garfield
Guards, last Saturday, with their uni
forms anl ffagr could only muster
music and all 24 persons, 8 of whom
were boys." How do the boys like that ?
count again: "Fairbrother the foul
est fellow I know of in Nebraska." It
will be seen he don't like Fairbrother
much.
Onething wap fails to tell the read
ers of the Herald, that he, wap, who
has always been regarded one of the
most healthy and robust men in the
county, has recently, "through the
machinations of the corrupt Republi
can party," been placed on the pension
list, with several thousand dollars
"back pay !" can some one inform some
body when, how and where wap be

Darwinism,
For the Advertiser.
That the reader may understand
what Darwin's views are, we quote as
follows: He says "there is less differ
ence between the two (mart and ape)
than between" the higher and lower
forms of apes themselves." "That
there is less difference in intelligence
between man and the higher mamals
than there isbetween the intelligence
of the ant and that of the coccus in
sects of the same class." "If man were
reared under the same conditions as
hivedbces there cart hardly be a doubt
that our unmarried females would be
the worker-bees, think it a sacred duty
to kill all their brothers, and mothers
would strive to kill their fertile daugh
ters and no one would think of inter
fering." He says the grand conclusion
is "man is descended from a hairy
quadreped furnished with a tail and
pointed ears"
One of the greatest Writers ill writing
on "Christianity and science" says:
"Xow if Christianity is the foe of
science has she not taken a singular
method of demonstrating her emuity?
To-day iA ffeBly as ever, she W feeding
the fountains of scientific knowledge.
Her most devoted ministers crowned
with the finest culture of the time,
preside over the schools which educate
her enemies. Where is the signs of
her Jlliberality the evidence, of her
timidity, the show of a.lack of confi
dence in ultimate results in all this?
The easily demonstrable nay, the pat
ent truth is that Christianity was the
first as sheremains the fast 1rid fos
tering friend of science, and all attempts
to place her in a false position will be
sure to react, upon those who engage in
them." In closing the article he says:
"Simp'y to show that the Christian
idea of a personal God is one which
leads to the abnegation of sdlf in de
votion to the common good; simply to
show that there is something in the
Christian scheme which furnishes
motives for making mankind happier
and better, and happier and better
than any scientific affirmation or neg
ative can make them is scientifica-'y
to demonstrate that a personal God
lives, and that Christianity is a scheme
of truth. The strife between science
and Christianity is a strife between
those who do not be' -eve in a personal
God and those who do. That settled,
the scientific opponents of Christianity
would leave the field or occupy it. Un

A special from Omaha to the
State Journal of the 29th ult., says:
The decision of Judge McCrary re
ceived here to-day grants the motion of
the B. & M. to dissolve the injunction
obtained by the Union Pacific Railroiul
some time ago, which had prevented
the B. & M. from crossing the Union
Pacific tracks and joining the Omaha &
Xebraska road. This gives Lincoln
direct communication with St. Paul.

The Republican State Central
Committee met at Xincoln on the 28th
ult. Every district in the State was
represented. Lincoln was chosen as
the place and September 1st the time
for holding the State Convention. The
committee leaves the matter of sub
mitting the Senatorial question to a
popular vote, for the action of the con
vention. The executive committee
were instructed to procure suitable
rooms in Xincoln f orTlepublican head
quarters. State Journal 29th: A construc
tion train, loaded with men, tools, pile
driver, etc., left the city yesterday morn
ing for work on the road, between Bed
Cloud and Beatrice.
If a story in the Fremont Herald
is true, old Bender and his wife, the
Kansas murderers, were recently
picked up, traveling afoot, near Schuy
ler, Neb. This story has them in jail,
and a confession, and a conversation
"between the old man and womau, ob
tained by evesdropping, which leaves
no doubt they are the real Benders.
The following explains itself, and
Ave congratulate Omaha:
"Gen. Charles F. Manderson, Omaha:
"My recommendations in reference
to headquarters of the department of
the Platte and Fort Omaha, have been
approved by the secretary of war, and
headquarters will be returned to the
city of Omaha and a permanent post
will be constructed at Fort Omaha.
This change will save a great deal of
money and will, I think, be satisfactory
to all concerned. I would now be glad
if you would carry out the arrange
ment spoken of bv you when at Fort
Omaha."
(Signed) P. II. Sheridan,
"Lt. Gen."
The Lincoln Globe and a few oth
er papers of the State favor carrying
out the silly provision in the consti
tution regarding the submission of the
Senatorial question to a popular vote.
Dignified constitution makers and leg
islators never engaged in moro absurd
business than did Nebraska's when
they considered that impracticable
clause in our fundamental laws, and
the unenforcible Statutory provisions
concerning it. Yet wlp'Ie it was a
ridiculous piece of business, unworthy
of serious consideration, it may lead to
a complication that will lose the Re
publicans a Senator.
TheXincoln Globe, "with pleas
ure," announces the."IIon. Wm. Daily"
as a candidate for State Senator "from
the grand old county of Nemaha," etc.
It is possible from what We have heard
recently, that the Globe knows What it
is talking about, but should the Re
publicans of the "grand old county of
Nemaha" choose to run their own ma
chine and not nominate the Hon. "Wm.,
we hope the Globe fellows, who seem
to have a Nemaha county political
bureau, will be able to weather the
campaign through. The Republicans
of this county are of the stalwart
breed who will go right ahead and at
tend to their knitting in spite of out
side noses thrust into their business or
the terrible (?) pressure of unsavory
"tie ups."
Sutton Globe: 11. A. Hawley re
ceived a letter from Gen. Garfield this
week in reply to congratulations, etc.,
sent by him sometime ago. Mr. Haw
ley was the only original Garfield man
in Sutton before the nominations were
made, so that he naturally feels proud
of the success of his chief, and will
treasure this letter, with the genuine
signature of the next President, as a
valuable memento of the great cam
paign of 18S0.

It is announced that the Lincoln
World will hereafter be prohibition in
stead of greenback. John B. Finch
will be censor and L. C. Pace will con
tinue as editor. It will not be strange
at all if "inflation" should creep into
the prohibition editorials once in a
while. It is also announced that Mr.
Finch will make speeches for Hancock
and English. Seward Reporter.
Mr. Finch being salaried by the Good
Templars of Nebraska to preach prohi
bition and tetotalism will cut a sorry
figure advocating the election of a
winebibberand whisky.guzzler in oppo
sition to the prohibition candidate, Mr.
Neal Dow, and Gen. Garfield who is at
least a temperance mart" by example.
