may pay our respects to this matter in
lot urc. and in the mcan.ime we again
advise citizens to look carefully into the
object of an organization that proposes
io ei.iuroi iuo commercial aj proaehe.s to
(ur city. It may lay in the hands of a
few men to ruin the commerce of the
p.aee. Oar po-itl u on this question i:
that id such power should be placed in
the hands of three individual-tcorrtfm.-i.
fur the purpose of building aroad from
Plattsnionth-jLA the Initial jxtnt. Now,
if ''Nebraska City was mentioned be
cause it was the initial point of the M. P.
Itailway,"' is that any reason why
riatt.-mouth should not be mentioned
'because it was the initial point" of the
Ii. & M. 11- Ilailv.ay ii, Nebra.-ka. The
author of the above says : '-if that line
had commenced," etc.. "its point of
crossing would doubtless not Iiave
been named." Wo acknowledge that
we are unable to i-ee the force of audi
hair-splitting theories, especially when
they are l.-uod on a "'doubtless" only.
If the commissioners can afford to let
the above go as their rca-nns for getting
the advtrtismcnt in the shape it is the
UkraI-U can certainly afford to. It is
all xcry fine, probably to talk aliut
"way stations'' and "initial points," etc.,
but there is such a thing as f ilrness, al
though it may not be generally known.
Good .c lor Xebriisl:.
Heretofore the tariff of rates from Ne
braska to Chicago has been so exborbit
ant that Nebraska fanners virtually had
no market for their surplus products.
We now have the pleasure of stating
that the I irectory of the Northwestern
Kailway Company have, in conjunction
with the Sioux City& Pacific Company,
so materially lowered their rates tis to
give Nebraska fanners an outlet for
their surplus wheat, vhile at the same
time the Chicago merchants pay them in
cash a handsome price. Farmers of
Platte, l"odare, Cuming, Washington.
Burt, I 'oughts, Sarpy, etc., will now
have oceaio!i to rejoice in the possession
of" a market at their doors. Orders have
been received this week for the purchase
of 250. UM bushels of wheat, which rates
in the Chicago market as No. , and
was worth yesterday $1.20 per bush .l.
Oiwilirt llcr'dd.
That is all first rate for the "farmers
of Platte, Dodge, Cumming, Washing

the farmers of -Cass, Otoe, Saunders,

York, Hamilton, and the fertile coun

The consequence of such competition
here will be the same. The color of the

the man who works against him. Nor

The subjeet of emi-l.,ylng laborers
from China is in agitation in many parts
of the country, and is likely to create
considerable sen.-ation and probably j-o-litical
action at no distant time.
At a Cliinese Lal.-or Convention held
a short time since at the south, it was
stated that laborers on farms in Chii.a
work f ir from to .-?( per year, it: d
that those imported into Cuba are Woil;
ing at k- per m-ntn. Ana m aaaitim
to the low wngT"the convention spoke
of them as easily inannged, industrious,
jiatienf, docile, tractable and obedient.
and moreover that they were in part
qnaunea for southern labor, inasmuch
as the products of their native countiy
arc in many respects similar to those of
our southern Suites.
The convention organized an emigra
tion eonipany, and subscribed forty thou
sand douars there. The capital sto.-k of
the company is to be one million.
jne convention was aadressctl ;v a
Chinaman, resident in Louisiana by the
name of Tyekem-on (we think his name
should be Tyek.em-off) who stated, in ad
dition to the facts above in relation to
wages, that there were now 70.000 Chi
nese laborers in the West India:. In
the same paper, the N. Y. Tri'iivc, a
correspondent says that on the l'.u.-iHe
11. II., the California end, we suppose is
meant, there are now employed 4,X)
Chinese, and further that the Union Pa
cific, or thc eastern part of the road, is
about to employ .siu-h laborers on its en
tire line, lie says thev work for S35
(gold) per mouth and board themselves.
while our citizens have been receivinc for
similar services $2 (currency) per day.
And that thi Chinese save from $2iJ to
$23 per month of their wages.
I has we see they are coming, and
now as it is a blessing, or a curse, that
will be of overwhelming magnitude, for
China can furnish them by millions, it
uehoves the people to consider the sub
ject well, and act before they come upon
us in multitudes, if it is desirable to pre
vent it.
In the firming districts ofNebniska,
and oi such districts generally in the
west, where land is cheap and there are
but few who earn their bread bv farm la
or for others, it would not operate so
injuriously, or rather would injure com
paratively few; but in towns and citie -,
en railroads and wharves, ia factories
and shops, in short wherever a service is
performed by a citizen that a Chine e
can do, they come immediately in com
petition, and the citizen will be the suf
ferer by it. The advocate of Chinese Ia.-
or will say, "let the citizen work as
cheap as the Chinese." .Why. such a
thins is utterly impossible. Take a la-
loringman in Omaha, and his wages are
not one cent too much to enable him to
upport his family. True there is not
much diiference between $Z per month
itude. They may yield us cheap labor,
and may also satisfy the ex-slave owner,
and some arrogant capitalists by their
docility, and humble submission, but
they will come as an unmittigated curse
on the productive laborers of ourcountry.
They will drag these down to their own
level, or drive them from the field en
tirely. They may build up the wealth of
one class into permanent, princely pos
sessions:, but they will reduce the other
class to suffering.
The tendency of the system is to divide
the people into two widely separate
classes the one the poor, ignorant, sc rv
ile, toiling multitude, the other the rich,
and arrogant few to feoil, fatten and
flourish on the unrequited toil of the
suffering millions.
Such being the tendency of the system,
we may expect the jiower of the entire
ouee-pro-slavery clement of the country,
together with much of the rail road in
terest of the North, and a large portion of
other incorporated capital, working in fa
vor of the scheme ; and we can reason
ably expect that every working man will
raise his voice against the ruinous inno
vation, -j-
"In one year from to-dav." sars the
H.UAl.D. "Piatt-mouth will have twenty
thousanl inhabitants." We presume
this means inhabitants of all kin-Is such
as M akes, lizards, bed buss, ileas and
ail these classes of small inhabitants.

Stocking, Esq., j juy from Jlr. Biadbume, Esq., dated

Col. M. t. Patiuck :
Dear Sir As I stated in this morn
ing's letter, I went in search of the mule
an-! saw him between O' Fallon's and
Alkali, I walked back and tried to catch
him but could not. I then attempted to
drive him to Alkali," but was unsuccess
ful, the mule was determined to go to
North Platte via O'Fallon's. Two miles
and a half west of O'Fallon's I met a
set of section men, and they tried to
stop The mule but could not. I had not
proceeded more than a mile before I saw
what I at first took to lc some stray cat
tle picketed around O'Fallon's, but I
found to nry sorrow when they were
about one huudred an I fifty yards dis
tant that they were Sioux Indians. I
only had a small Sharp's revolver with
two charges in it. I gave leg ball and
three condescended to follow me, sec
onded by six others near by I ran for
my life, and as the foremost Sioux had
reached within twenty yards of me, I
threw the lariat roue down. As I hoped.
he stopped and picked it up. I put on all
steam and got a good lift ahead of.him,
but the cuss soon came along side of me,
t taking my revolver from mycoat pockt)
dropped mv coat, he stopnea and
picked it up. He soon came along side
of me; and as I had nothing handy but
my hr.t 1 slims that on; that he cobbled.
then he came for me and as I did not
care to be shot in the back, I turned,
took aim, fired and hit him in the right
shoulder. He fired a shot from a Spen
cer carbine, and drew away ; about five
3'ards. behind him, a young one took aim
and sent an arrow whizzing past my ear.
I pulled tho trigger, it snapped and
missed fire; then another came riding
up to me and fired a shot at me. I made
pretense of firing my revolver. The sec
tion boss opened a fire on them for me
to retreat under. We got the hand-car
under way when over titty Indians ap
peared on the bluffs, then we had a race
for life, but got in all safe in O'Fallon's.
It was impossible for me to save the
mule, being without arms and the sec
tion men were short of ammunition.
This little scare has caused a great ex-
