Meantime near neigh bors of the Whites suspecting that matters about the White premises were not what -they had been repre sented, instituted a search, and there behold, near the stable in a shallow grave, they found the-decomposing re mains of poor old Rozier.

LOUIS LOWMAN. At HoK-ard 11 th inst. Howard, Sept 7th, 1SS0. Editor Advertiser. Please make room to say in this week's issue of your paper, (as it has a large circulation in the west part of the county) that the Republicans of Iafayette precinct expect to have a rousing meeting at Howard, Saturday evening, September lltli, at which-time Hon. L. M. Hay ward, of Nebraska City will address the Garfield club, also Gapt. Mitchell will betherejf the health of Ids family will permit. Everybody invited to come. -Republicans of Wash ington and Glen Rock, come over and help us. Let us say a word as regards the "Great Democratic Barbecue" at How ard September 4th. There was per haps nearly one thousand people pres ent, of which one-half "were Republi cans. But we do not think the local committees done their duty very well, considering the weather. The first speaker was Senator Tipton. He mere ly recited to us what he said to us here a few weeks ago State rights doctrine of course. Well who says that tlie States have no rights; Republicans say their rights are limited by the constitution of the United States. Only, he added that while the Re publicans were so down on Southern -Brigadiers holding ofiiee, why it was. that Gens. Longstreet and Mosby were ministers to foreign country's they were Southern Brigadiers said he in his funny way "to himself." He didn't tell us that they were among the first rebels to be reconstructed and the;r speeches at that time had a differ ent ring to that q Wade Hampton at Staunton a short time ago, Republicans knew the reason. Baker from Penn sylvania, next spoke, he wanted us im pressed with the idea that he wjis from Pennsylvania. Well if he was, we failed to see anything uncommon about him. He was sure Hancock . would be elected because lie was from Pennsylvania, and proud of him he was too. He didn't say how proud he was of Buchanan, alsoaPennsylvanian. How he did eulogize Lincoln, Sumner, Chase, Staunton, Greeley and other founders of the Republican party, we thought of viiat Democrats said of these men in 1S03-C-L What did the Democrats sayjn their platform dur ing the darkest days of the war. "We declare the war a failure, etc." This eulogy business is a trick to catch weak kneed Republicans. As to Broady "s speech, we're tired of such, and didn't hear it. Respectfully, Nostrebor.

JL j-sj bahga: I vrill close out We do not often get so far away from home that we cannot return the same day; but last week, our county convention having kindly appointed us a delegate to the State convention, we went up to Lincoln, the live and grow ing capital of Nebraska. The improve ments in the way of magnificent edi- .fices, railroad depots, tracks, switches,: etc, since our previous visit were very marked and far greater than we had imagined. And the piles of briek.. stone, sand, and partly finished build ings upon every street left no doubt in our miad that Lincoln was booming I and. that there need be no idle laborers. or mechanics In the Magic City." The week of rain preceding our ad vent into the city made the streets abominable, detracting much from its usual good appearances; but we must be patient and in due time the streets will be macadamized, stone sidewalks will take the place of the present plank footways; gas jets will illuminate the whole city, and she will be, out of the mud and the dark, truly a gem. The convention was harmony itself. The people have heard of the existence of political rings, railroad rings and other scarey combinations, but noth ing of the kind appeared at the conven tion. And when we saw the alleged leaders of various rings and factions there working and voting all for the sameiersons and purposes, we con cluded the cry of -rings' was only the croaking of a few who are not worthy of the confidence of the masses of the party. Every candidate on the State ticket was nominated by acclamation. The nominees for Governor, Lieut. Govern or, Secretary of State and Treasurer had no opposition. For Auditor, Land Commissioner and Superintendent, oth er names than the nominees were pro posed, but after a ballot had indicated apparently the strongest man, some one would move to make him the unanimous choice of the convention. and in no instance was an objection raised. We regarded this peculiar fea ture of a State convention, usually composing a n amber of politicians hav ing very dull axes to grind, as a good omen, and strengthened the opinion that we have long entertained, that a politician may be a patriot. The unanimity with which the gen tlemen on the ticket were chosen as Republican standard bearers is the best of evidence to the voters of the State that they are good, true and competent men, deservingthe undivided support of the Republican party. Mr. Nance, Mr. Cams, Mr. Alexan der and Mr. Bartlett, are the present incumbents and were nominated for re-election, they by their honesty, effi ciency, and unblemished records merit ing this indorsement. Mr. Leidtke, Auditor having the present excellent unfortunately gotten himself into trouble regarding those . insurance fees, could not be indorsed by the party, and Mr. Waliiehe. a Ger man of Hall county was nominated for Auditor. Mr. Wallichs brought be fore the convention every desirable recommendation, and we feel assured that socially, politically and education ally be is fitted for the office. He has been county elerk of Hall county for twelve consecutive years, and has served his people in the legislators evidence that be has the confidence, friendship and support of his neigh bors, which is the best of recommenda tions. Mr. Jones will succeed the present Superintendent of Public Instruction, and. judging by his appearance and reputation, the change wiH be an agreeable and beneficial one for the school interests of the State. Mr. Kendall, for Commissioner of Public Lands and Buildings, is the clerk now of Howard county, and tliose best acquainted with him say he is especially well fitted and qualified for the oSice. He is a young man in years, full of business energy, and a stalwart Republican. It would be impossible to gat better tickets in the field Presidential, State and County than the Republicans of Nemaha have. And now boys, three cheers for the old flag that proudly waves over us, and then to work for i harmony, union, and.victory. 50 Empty harrels for sor ghum at McGee & Moore's, HUSI0AL C0H7EHTI05 AT SAEE3L AncrtfreT Success.

Notwithstanding the- driving rain, our convention commenced on Tues- f day. the day announced in our circu lars. Of coarse no one could even hope for a large attendance on account of jthe rain, but the directors and others from five, ten, fifteen and twenty miles I away were here, making a very pleas ant and effective chorus. Each session brought accessions to our numbers, and the time passed happily and profitably by until the evening of the concert at last arrived, heralded in as nearly ev ery session of the concert had. been, by thunder, lightning and rain. There was mud in front of us, mud in the rear of ns, mud at the right of us, mud at the left of us, mud down under us; yes, and mud all over its. But the managers conceived a happy thought and chartered the city luis, and drove it to everv door in the vil- lag and the result was a splendid audienceatthe concert, the programme of which was as follows: PART FIRST. 1. Glee, "Our Western Home." 2. Cantata, "Life, in the Scenes." 3. Song, "Friars of Orders Grey." W. H. Harrington. 4. Alto Solo and Chorus, "One by One." 5. Song, "Day is Done." Miss Lou Rich. 6. Glee, "Morning, Noon, Evening.' T. Quartette, "In the old Church Tower." Misses Dillon and Croueh4 Messrs. Hfc and Hall s. Anthem, "They wh wait upon the Lord " 9. "Violin solo, "Miss Eva Ransom." 10. Opera Chorus, "Wake from Slum- fber." Miss DHIon in solo. PART SHCOXD. 1. Qbra Chdnts. "Now the roll of the Drum." 2. Ballad and Refrain, "Miss. Grouch in Solo." 3. Four part song in Chorus. 4. Quartette, "Vesper Bell." Misses Dillou and Margrave, Messrs. Hifct and Harrington. 5. Hymn. "Praise to Thee." . Song, "Let me likeaSoklier F." L. Foster Hitt. T. Song, "Three Fishers." Miss Aggie Abbey. S. Dnafct, "When life is brightest." Misses Dillon and Crouch. 8. Glee, -Tliexe's a good time com ing." 10. Cantata, "Daughter of Error." Mise Ina Dillon in solo. This programme was performed to tlie perfect delight of all present, and the audience was large and appreciat ive. I must be allowed to ptirticuiar ise a little just here. Mr. W. H. Har rington as principal basso rendered ef fective service, and in his song, "Friars of Orders Grey," was very" acceptable. He has a fine voice. Miss Lou Rich, in "Day is Done," was well received. MLss Rich lias a very pure and musical voice. The first quartette of the evening by Misses Dillon and Crouch, Messrs. Hitt and Hail, is a pleasant and somewhat pathetic piece of music. It was very acceptable as they gave it, the harmo ny of voices and sentiment being near ly perfect. Next we make mention of Miss Eva Ransom, who instead of a violin solo, sang a ballad, in which she displayed great jwwer of voice, and was loudly applauded by the audience. The opera chorus, with Miss Dillon as obiigato solist, was a gem. In the first place, the music is so bright and the singing so cheerful, and "solo so sparkling, that it is almost dazzling in its effect. Part second opened with a stirring opera chorus, after which Miss Ella Crouch gave us a ballad, "Old Friends are gone. Miss Crouch has a pure con tralto voiee of rare sweetness, and sang with an intensity of feeling that reached every one in the honse. She was ably assisted in the refrain which followed each verse, by Miss Elia Mar grave and Messrs. Hitt and Harring ton. "Let me like a Soldier Fall" was a tenor solo sung by L. F. Hitt Mr. Hitt in this showed bis great voice to good effect All in alL Mr. Hitt is an enjoyable singer. "The Three Fishers by Miss Abbey was well handled. Miss Abbey, in the bands of an able teacher, could la time be a ime singer. " be Life is Brightest" was finely handled by Misses' Dillon and Crouch; and now last but certainly not least, "Daughter of Errors" appears with Miss Ina Dillon as Daughter of Errors. In this ae in every other effort of hers, Miss Dillon is more than equal to the demand. She delights us with her pore and perfect singing; her tones so even and pore; her words so distinct; her manners so unassuming; every thing so free from that languishing, sentiinentalism so often indulged in by singers of greater pretensions, that we feel elevated and bettered by every song we heard her sing. The chereses were all excellent, and scarcely a piece was performed during the evening, from the songs, to the heaviest chorus, bet was the recipient of vociferous applause. Through the efficient exertions of the executive committee, free houses of the highest order were furnished to all from adjoining towns. The executive committee left no stone unturned that would contribute to the success of the convention.

"Would there were more ministers like him. In his remarks to the convention and audience, near the close of the concert, he said: It ia? very rare that wo see so much of devo tion, so much enthusiasm so. much ability to bring great results from little means as we find in Prof. Worley, our successful director; andmayGohIess him in this fiekl of labor, for which he is by nature, and acquirement, so pecu liarly qualified. Attendant. It will be seen by reading the State ticket that our stalwart fellow-citizen, Col. Tom. Majors, again received the nomination for Contingent Congress man. Mr. Lambertson in placing the I name of CoL Majors before the conven tion vsanl; I think it is desirable to put in nom ination by the convention a contingent congressmen. Under the census of lSrO the state has been entitled to an additional member of eongreas, but the right has been denied by a democratia congress. I trust the next congress will be republican; and in that casa the just claim of the state under the census of 1ST0 and the census of 1SSO will be-recognized. It is wise, there fore, to be prepared; and the man whom we ought to nominate is the man who has spent time and his money more than anv other man In the state to secure the state. I nominate the Hon. Thos. Majors, of Nemaha, aa a candidate for contingent congress man. Mr. Jim Laird, of Junieta, seconded the nomination, and said: Whatever may have been the politi cal differences in this state, there is no man but will bear cheerful testimony to the fact that at all times,, sacrificing business and personal interests, Mr. . Majors lias been ready to go wherever his party summoned him. and in his whole eourse of action he has never leen found lacking (h4 and prolong ed cheering.) We have come to know him some of us in the occasional wholesome knock-downs which come to men who engage in the political are- l na (laughter.) We hnve met him, and sometimes we have been his. He has mat us, and sometimes he has been ours. It is the fortune of our warfare; but we have all eome to respect Tom Majors, and therefore I cheerfully and heartily second his nomination. The motion to nominate CoL Majors by acclamation wus carried unanimous ly; and the nominee being called, stood np in the aisle and said: Jfr. Chairman,ttd Gentlemen efthz Contention: I remember two years ago perhaps for years ago it was. when I first received, the nomination for contingent, or additional congress man for the state of Nebraska. I re member that at that time, or shortly afterward, I happened to be in Lincoln, ami I was introduced by a frieud of mine to a German friend in my official style. The German friend did not get it exactly, and pondered for a moment, then he sab!: "Ah! Tom Majors dot is our delinquent congressman." Laughter and cheers. Gentlemen of tlie convention. I am thankful indeed of this delinquency. Cheers. All hinds of flannels at J, L. McGee' s. Fruit Trees and Vises.
