TO THE PUBLI0.
Insinuations have been thrown out
by parties In the employ of A. S.
Barnes & Co., that I am paid by Har
per & Bros, for recommending their
text-books to the school boards of Ne
maha county. Such Insinuations ale
false. 1 have never received any com
pensation of any kind from Harper &
Bros., nor havo I received promise of
compensation of any kind. The peo
ple of Nemaha county have often
spoken to me of tho very high prices
charged for text-bonks moro especial
ly tho National and Independent series
uitbllahed bv A. S. & Co. and when
examining dlfTeient series with refer
once to recommending ono for county
adoption, I was pleased to find In Har
per's series, books fully equal to any as
regards merit and only about half as
expensive. My enly object in favoring
Harper's books, was to glvo the patrons
of the schools under my supervision,
the best books at tho lowest prices.
Harper's house is tho only one, I bo
Hove, that regulates tho prices of their
books in tho hands of the bookdealors,
thus preventing tho dealers charging
unreasonable prices.

Finest line of pocket books memo
randums, perfumery and toilet articles
in the county at Nickell's in Brown
vlllo. On Monday morning, a man named
Waters in trying to lead and handle a
wild puny one our streets treated it in
amoHtcruel and inhuman manner. The
horso was tied behind Billy Watkins'
wagon, and when he would start his
team the horso would pull back and
dually fall broadsldo in the mud, then
after dragging it by the neck a few
rods tho team would bo stepped and
Waters would pound, and kick it, and
punch a stick Into its nose and up its
nostrils. After this thing had gone on
some time to the disgust of every one,
Col. Hutchins interfered, and threat
ened Waters with arrest if ho did not
desist In Ills cruelty. Waters got
wrathy and did some blowing, but he
changed his brutal treatment of the
dumb animal all tho same, and when
he did so the pony was led away with
out further trouble. Then Waters not
satisfied with the interference that
saved him further trouble and most
likely tho life of his animal, insulted
Col. Hutchins, and threatened him
with violenco if he would come over
to North Auburn. Col. Hutchins had
accomplished all he wished to by his
interference, but when Waters yelled
his threats and Insults at him, he shot
his mouth off once teo often, for the
Col. at once had him arrested. But
Waters was Anally discharged by him
paying the costs which amounted to
$10.(16. Col. Hutchins deserves tho ap
probation of everybody for the part he
took in the matter.

THAT DIRECTORY.
The Business Directory of South
Auburn, printed by Swigart & Son, of
Maquoketa, Iowa, was delivered last
Monday, and as a piece of "betch
work" excels anything of the kind we
have seen for some time, although
their agent says it is the best
directory the firm lias gotten out. A
person who has any knowledge of how
a directory should bo gotten up, knows
that it was a disgrace to the estab
lishment getting out suclr a job as it
was. In thOf first placo it spells the
name of our popular blacksmith, Wm.
Matthisen, with two I's instead of
two T's, and the agent goes so far as to
tako his lead pencil and try to make
it look like two T's. The agent said
that no one but a printer would notice
I such mistakes. But we think that our
business men who honored that firm
with an "ad." will see if they havo
half an eye that it is a miserable
"botch."
In tho second place they did not use
the Chicago Lumber Co.'s cut, which
they agreed to do, but used a difieront
one. In the third place, taking the
wholo thing into consideration, anv
second rato country ofllcecan do better
work. It lias not been very
long slnco ono of the Advertiser
firm went among tho business men to
solicit advertisements for a directory
and hardly any of them would consent
to patronize their home ofllco, but
would send tholr money away and bo
compelled to take any sort of a job,
whether bad or good, and ask no ques
tions. Is this treating your home of
fice with any degree of respect? If so,
how do you expoct It to live among you
and to help build up the town ? '
Moral Patronize home Institutions

Tom Majors was down here Friday
night tia said, in the business of
working up a mongrel ticket. Tons,
with his present cloudy record is strict
ly a malcontent of the Republican
party. Since it has been demonstrated
to him that he is away below par in a
square open issue, he is taxing his low,
tricky nature to circumvent the de
clared will of the party. To do this
he is now a self-constituted wirepuller
for old Democrats, and is busy in ag
gravating the imaginary afilictions and
miseries of soreheads. The Republi
cans of Nemaha will vote the ticket,
and when Tom comes in any other in
