Mr. Furnas. Mr. Furnas warmly fa
vors the appointment of Mr. Hitchcock
as secretary of the interior. Omaha

"The enemies of Senator Hitchcock"
have done no such thing.
The Fillmore paper doesn't know
what it is talking about.
Gov. Furnas' friends, who are also
Mr. Hitchcock's friends, were advocat
ing, and working, not tlirongh the ja
jers hoicerer, for the Governor before
they knew that Hitchcock was a candi
date. That some of the enemies of Mr.
Hitchcock are advocating Furnas for
the purpose of defeating him. may be
true; but they are not doing so with
the approbation of Furnas. Sufficient
evidence of this isfuruished by the
Furnas letter in the Chicago Inter
Ocean of the 4th insL, which conveys
no uncertain sound in its advocacy of
Mr. Hitchcock for a cabinet position.
Gov. Furnas has as much 1 jht to be
a candidate, and has, at the 'least, as
many claims upon the support of the
State, as Hitchcock or any other man,
hut he is unselfish, magnanimous, self
sacrificing too Tmuch so his friends
well know and he concedes the pref

which would crown his State with
greater honors. Gov. Furnas nearest

Oldest Paper in the State
Brownvllle Advertiser.
We are just now wondering how it
happens that all the lately appointed
deputy United States marshals in the
state are "working in the interest of
Judge Dundy's candidacy for the
United States senate. It surely can
not be possible that their appointments
were made for this consideration, but
now. come to think the matter over, it
occurs to us that we know of at least
some of them who were warm "advo
cates of Senator Paddock before they
received their appointments.
The above, a3 credited at the top, ap
pears in the Omaha Republican. That
is not an Adveutisek item nor senti
ment, and does us an injustice which
is provoking, for it represents us un
truly to the thousands jof readers of the
metropolitan daily, whom we cannot
hope tcTTeach with-jour disclaimer in
our country weekly. It may be of lit
tle consequencewhat we t,nmy think
or say on Senatorial questions, yet if
an attempt is made to quote the "bu
colic country pross," it should be done
fairly. The sentiment expressed in
the above, attributed to us, is at vari
ance with our way of thinking and
speaking. We -are not of the kind who
conjure a mare's nest out 'of material
so ilimsy and are everlastingly croak
ing over imaginary evils.
Church;IIowo is experiencing some
difficulty even in Nemaha county. He
is candidate for speaker, and all of a
sudden another member from his own
county rises up as candidate for the
same "office. Lincoln Globe.
In an interview with Mr. Schick by
the. editor of the Advertiser, that
gentleman said he had never thought
of being a candidate for Speaker; that
he lias not authorized any one to an
nounce that he is; that the article in
the Sheridan Post announcing him,
was unauthorized, that he had no idea
as to who was at the bottom of it, and
that he knew nothing of it had no hint
that such an article was going to ai--pear,
until some one called his atten
tion to it. Mr. Schick further said
that as he wa3 entirely without legis
lative experience he did not want to
be Speaker, even were such a thing
possible. We shall not this week go
into some certain details of this matter
that we may hereafter, ami have time
now only to say that Mr. Schick's an
nouneement'tmanate.s from Mr. Howe's
malicious enemies for the sole purpose
of using Schick as a tool to hurt or spite
Mr. Howe, but we do not believe Mr.
Schick will permit himsolf to be used
as a mere thing for any such purpose.
Ez-Gov. Purnas Will Pill the Bill.
CoLUMnus.fO., Dec. 10. The state

Xot far from Laukawaxon. Pais the
home of two young ladies, sisters, aged
respectively 18" and 20 years. They
were each receiving the addresses of
lovers, who were brothers, and both
couples were engaged to be married, It
was their intention to celebrate a
double wedding about the holidays, but
now masters have changed. A few
days ago the four were sitting together
in "the parlor at the girls' homo when
the elder lady expressed a desire to at
tend a political meeting then being
held in a near-by village. She asked
her lover to accompany her, but he re
fused point blank, giving as his reason
that he was not a Democrat. The
young lady insisted, but still he refus
ed. Finally she turned to his brother,
who, it seems, was a Democrat, and
asked him to accompany her. To the
surprise of all he at once consented
and they went to the meeting. The
two who remained at home were quite
indignant, the one at the conduct of
her lover, the other at the way his
sweetheart had acted. The more they
discussed it the angrier they became.
They discovered that they the ones at
home were both Republicans, while
the two who had gone were of Demo
cratic proclivities. They talked on,
discovering little by little similarities
of tastes and habits, and finally resolv
ed each to break the old love and form
a new alliance. Xo sooner resolved
than the compact was ratified by' a kiss,
when by chance the others entered.
The gentleman told his brother at once
what they had decided to do. To his
great surprise no sorrow was shown,
no anger manifested, and his wonder
was increased when he was informed
that the other couple, while on their
walk home, had resolved to do just the
same tiling. The hugging, therefore,
now goes on as usual, and the weddings
will take place about New Years.

A gang of car robbers, who for the
past five years have been robbing the
baggage ofj travelers who had val
uables in the baggage cars, were arrest
ed last week between Kansas City and
Omaha. It took one of Pinkerton's de
tectives many months to fix the locali
ty of the robberries, as those who were
robbed were through travelers, from
west to east or the reverse, and not ex
amining their baggage during transit,
of course did not know when or at
what point on the road they had been
robbed. And as the thieves were em
ployes of the road, it was nearly impos
sible to detect them in the act. But
the matter being finally worked up,
the arresting of well known and sup
posed honest men, in good standing, of
Kansas City, Council Bluffs and Oma
ha, has created quite a sensation in
those cities and along the line of the
road. The names given asparties ar
rested, so far, are George Johnson,

ing bottle containing milk, and a brick
was at its feet. Pinned to the child's
clothing was a card directing it to the

seems to fix the parentage of the child
upon Rev. John Daly, a priest, ano a

"What Temperance Did.

Ayear ago we hadn't flour to make a batch

And many a night these little ones went

And he didn't like to meet the folks he used

But now ho looks them In the face, and steps
off bold and free ;
Aud this Is what tho Temperance Cfiuso has

A year ago these llttle.boys went strolling

nothing on their feet;
But now they V3 bhoes and stocklugs and

And that Is what the Temperance Cause has

The children were afraid of him his coming

But now when upper tlmo Is o'er, and the

The boys all frolic around his chair, the ba

And this Is what the Temperanco Cause has
done for John and me.
Ah, tlioso sad days arc over ot sorrow and of

The children have their father back, and I

Each morning when he goes to work, I up

And every night before I sleep, thank God
on bended knee,
For what the Temperance Cause has done

The Demand For Grant.
There is a demand for Grant. What
can we do to honor Grant V is the prob
lem of tho day. On tho one hand there
is a fund raised to give him a hand
some pension; then a rival for the
world's commendation wants to make
him Senator-for-life. Then it is pro
posed to place him upon the retired list
of th urmy. so-ihut ho will have an in
come of $13,000 per annum, as long as
he lives.
Again, he is to be made Captain
General of the army a rank of honor.
In Europe capitalists ask him to bo pres
ident of a transcontinental canal com
pany; in Mexico he is wanted as man
ager of an international railway by
which it is proposed to traverse the
hemisphere. Xext it is suggested that
the great trunk lines of railroad in the
United States are to be consolidated
into a grand belt, encircling the conti
nent, with Grant in control.
He is demanded as a United States
Senator from the three greatest States
of the Union, Xew York, Pennsylva
nia, and Illinois. He is suggested for
a Cabinet position by more people than
any other man. He is wanted as Min
ister to the Court of St. James, and
one ardent admirer proposes to create
a new office, similar to that held by
Prince Bismarck in Germany, and have
General Grant act as a perpetual ad
viser to the future Presidents of the
United States.
Xo man living or dead, no hero in
tradition or history, has received the
honors that have been heaped upon
this simple-mannered, modest, silent
soldier, and yet a whole nation is puz
zling its brains to invent new honors
for him.
When he travels the populace rush
to the cars to got a sight of his face;
when he speaks tens of thousands of
anxious listeners bend their heads to
catch the tone of his voice, and the tel
egraph transmits every word as of the
most interest to the reading world;
when lie attends church the audiences
refuse to leave until he has passed out
