they first met in Lincoln. Rosier bad
a team ami some money, AVhite had
neither. They lived and. farmed togeth
er. The old man recently was sudden
ly missing, the Whites saying be had
gone east The latter aftar disposing
of their stock and such goods as they
could not haul last week started back
with the Rosier team, for Pennsylva
nia. Parties to whom they were in
debted and had mortgaged the team,
stopped-them. 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. The circum
stances seem to lead directly to the con
clusion that the Whites murdered him
to get his team and his share of other
property on the farm.

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.

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.

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.

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."

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. Noth-
imr but tannine viluck nntl Tvr;vfir -

must be counted one of the successes of
the season.

the convention and audience, near the
close of the concert, he said: It ia?

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.
