Porte Welch, editor of the Progressive

to the democrat u-, candidates for State

dare to t-how their position on the pro

resolution in opposition to "aid amend
ment, thus cutting off all debate.
Of the seven Republican Senators
who voted against the impeachment of
Andrew Johnson, it is somewhat stranne
that but two remain unscathed by the
hand of death, or by political, or other
misfortune. These on; Trumbull and
llo:s.s, of Kansas. IIendor;on. of Mis
souri, and Van Winkle, c f Wc-t Virgin
ia, have been ueiceded; l'wler of Ten
nessee, will have to give place to some
other man; IY.ssenJe.ii, of Maine has
just die J; (J rimes is an invalid and has
resigned.
Under the proper heading
found the announcement of
Johnson as a candidate for the
wi
J. w.
office of
Sheriff, m'ject to the action of the Re
publican nominating convention. It is
of the utmost importance to even citizen
that we have a good Sheriff in this coun
ty, not only that we may save gre.it ex
pense, but that order and quiet may le
maintained. There never was a time
when there was more necessity for a
good Sheriff than at the present, and we
trust the profile cf Cass county will re
nominate and re-elect Mr. Johnson by
a majority that will f peak louder for hi
conduct heretofore than anything we
tould sav.
THE,DEHO( RUV
Of Cass county boasted last faring that
they would iswccp the country at the
October election, by reason of disaf
fection in the Republican .ranks. They
have been constantly at work f ince that
time endeavoring to create that disaffec
tion, but ha,vu succeeded very poorly
in fact, they have .succeeded a poorly in
that as they did in preventing the tri
umph of the War for theUnion. All
manner of reports have been taken to
prominent Republicans in the country as
to what was said and done in the town,
and rice versa ; all with the one object in
Tiew that of creating trouble in the
Republican ranks. How well they have
succeeded, a few days will tell. We
have only to say to all true Republicans,
do not believe a word of what comes to
-oa through such sources. Turn out
and see that go.! men of your own party
arc nominated and elected. The latest
dodge of the5e trouble breeders is to call
a ''People's Convention," and we look
for a call soon, s-igned by such "patriots"
asWhcatly Mickelwiit, R. G. Doom,
etc., aui probably one or two individuals
who formerly acted with the Republican
party. Will Republicans of glorious old
Cass be trapied with haiT? We think:
not. The enemies of freedom have
counted their chickens before th.v are
hatched.
Again it becomes a duty to urge a gen
eral attendance of Republicans at the
primary meetings throughout the coun
ty. It has to a certain extent become
chronic for Republicans to stay away from
their primary meeting, and then find
fault with the nominees. Is there not
as good men in the Republican party as
there is out of it? If there is, then why
pot tnrn ont and see that good men, and
none others, are selected as candidates
f r office. If you believe the L'enioeratic
pirty ii riphO'n their political vi.sws.and
ii oo!iijw-cd fif better men than the Re
publican party, then j'ou thould acy with
that pirty openh It is probably we'll
kt:7. n to rvcry voter in Ca? county that
rrif-ff'.rt is l-ln? made to distract the
R publican pfn t y in this county, and for

is; i h C' f M"? porpo o of M'cning a
i .'-. I"t cry f'eii-i.!?
man be his own nidge of ifhis matter.
l Do you suppose men who say in advance
that they "will not bupporl any man who
is nominated by the Republican' Conven
ts n" lias in view any other object than
that of irjurin.r the Rf:p ibiiean organi
zation and strengthening the Democratic
organization? Let the Republicans of
Cass county turn out to their primary
meetings, and select their very best men
to attend the county convention, and, if
nefds be, instruct them as to what their
wishes are, and. we will, guarantee that
none but good men will lw selected as
candidates men who will give satisfac
tion to all except such as specially desire
to see the Democratic party triumphant,
Let no Republican fail in his duty to
himself and his country, by staying away
from the primary meeting?, or by keep
ing silent if be tsees any di-poitioii to
"pack" a delegation.

The Democracy of Mine.iot are trying
to be progressive, for which effort the
whole civilized vorld should rejoice.
They are a littlo late about it, to be sure;
but nevertheless we should be thauklul.
They resolve that they are in fvor of
'broadening the basis of suffrage, and
extending the blessings of free institu
tions to all classes of people." To be
sure, the thing is already did, but then
it is some consolation, probably, for them
to endorse it and declare themselves in
favor of that which the great. Republican
party of the nation has already accom
plished. 1 1 might have looked bettor to
some uncharitable people if the democracy
had resolved in this style several years
ago, when the rest of mankind were
moving in that direction. 'Rut, then,
they did Hot object to slavery until after
it was done away with, neither did they
oppo.-e rebellion until it was enis.hed.and
it could not be expected that they would
favor an extension of the suffrage until
it was already extended. Rut there is
no denying that 'the democracy is a
progressive party, if their lino of progress
is several years behind the rest of the
world.
THE CESTRAIi 1'OIXT.
We have heretofore stated tliat an ef
fort was leing made to concentrate sev
eral railroads at this point, and make
the line from here west the great trans
continental route. The following, from
the Nebraska City 2Vw, is in confirma
tion of the report :
"J. II. Madison, Esq., of Glenwood,
Iowa, is in the city, and informs us that
having Wen recently in Council Bluffs,
he lcarn. d that it is reported there, and
understood to bo true, that Vanderlilt
lias obtained control of the Uuion Pa
cific Railroad, and the Rock Island Road,
and that he proposes to construct a line
from Home point on the; Rock Island
Road to the South Plattci either to Ne
braska City or Plattsracuth, and make it
the through connection from the Atlan
tic to the Pacific To this end he ha
cfopned work on the bridge at Council
Rio 111-, aii l i s removintr tlv; machinery
and material, and will construct ihe
bridge at the point south of the Platte.
'The effect of such a movement upon
the interests of the South Piatt -i and
also upon Omaha and Council Rluffs is
easily foreseen, and we call the attention
ef our railroad men and prominent citi
zens to the fact, with the hope that the
matter may be investigated and such
measures taken as will secure our inter
ests in the matter."
Of course the assertioii of the 7Vw
that Nebraska City is mentioned as a
possible point for this great concentra
tion, is all gratuitous on the part of that
journal ; yet it does no harm to any one,
and shows a just appreciation of the
benefits of the concentration and a belief
in its accomplishment. We shall give
such information as we may be able to
obtain upon this subject, -from time to
time.

great inducement for making this sale
was to interest other parties in the town,
to the end that improvements may be

may be built up. The proprietors were

Autumn winds are in high glee here

these plains. Well, Tnsser says ; 'vEx

an ill wind that turns noDC to good."

The Mlllford merchants are prepairing
for fall trade.' Mr. Davison has received
his new machinery and it is being rapidly
placed in position; having engaged two
first class millers (Messrs. Turner and
Cooper) for the faTl and winter, he will
soon be able to satisfy the crowd of
customers that siege the mill daily.
The R. R. meeting on Saturday was
largely attended, all seeming anxious to
hear the bond question ventilated. " Gov.
Butler first addressed the assemblage.
He spoke of the resources of the country
and urged the people to develope the
same and encourage all accessions of
wealth to the country, it was now within
the power of the citizens of Seward to
loan the credit of the Co. and thereby
secure a R. R. at an early day. As he
closed be called for a vote for and against
the bonds ; there were three negative
votes. '
Mr. Parker, of Camden, was then
called out and gave a mathematical cal
culation, showing that the tax on the
assessed value of the R R when the bonds
became due would more thau par off the
bonds.
President White, of the M. P. R. R.,
was next introduced ; and, in a very
tiandid manner, defined the agreement
between the Co. and R. R., and an
swered all questions propounded in a
satisfactory manner ; be was followed by
other, who spoke in favor of the bonds,
and at f p. m. the meeting adjourned,
anti-bond men had grown beautifully
less. We consider it quite a success and
hope to-day will decide in favor of the
$50,000, and thus show that Seward Co.
will favor the R. R. that means business.
We expect the i. & M. to make Drosrrcss

men to look to their own interest first,

Country Abu to Party.
The following thrilling account of the
manner in which onr deceased Secretary
of War rose above party and came for
ward as a true patriot only at the begin
ning of the war is related :
At the firing on Sumpter, April 12,
1S62, Rawlins, like others of his part',
was aroused, indignant, and anxious to
hear from their leader, Douglas, who had
not yet taken ground for coercion. On
the 15th. however, came the news of
the fail of the fortress, and John A.
Raw tins, then one of the most popular
men in his Congressional District, made
up his mind as to the course he would
pursue, whatever might befall Pouzlas.
On the afternoon of tbe ltith2 the Stars
and Striie3 were brought out m Galena,
and unfurled amidst the cheers of the
people. In the evening the town gath
ered in mass convention. On his way To"
the meeting, a Democratic friend said to
Rawlins:
"It is an Abolition fight ; do not mix
in ; u you do you will injure our party."
"I don't know anvthinz about party
now," hri replied. ""Alb I know is that
traitors have fired on the flag." Arrived
at the meeting, alter a weak-kneed
speech by the Mayor, Rawlins wa enthu
siatica!ly called ujxin, and made the
speech of the evening. Richardson, in
his admirable biography of Grant, thus
describes the siK-eeh :
Warming with his subject, he made a
most cogent and stirring argument. Fi
nally, his voice filling every corner of the
old Court House, and ringing out like a
trumpet over narrow winding streets and
sharp hills, he rose to his climax :
"I have been a Democrat all my life,
but this is no longer a question of pol
itics. It is simply country or my country.
1 have iUvoreJ every honorable compro
mise, but the day for compromise is
passed. Only one courso is left for us.
HV trill xtrind the fintj nfvur country

The t ficet was electric The audience
:p:ang t; their ii ct and gave cheer after
cheer for Major Anderson, and for the
maintenance of the Union at whatever
cost. Captain Grant was present.
Though he had known Rawlins as the
attorney for the leather house, he had
no intimate acquaintance with him, but
this speech so thoroughly expressed his
own feelings thac from that hour his
heart went out to the vounz orator.

r A good story is told of a late well known
New York politician and railroad mana

A few months ago. an engineer of an
express train on the Pennsylvania C-en-tral
railroad zointr west tliscovered an en
gine approaching him at such a rate of
speed that he was at once convinced that
it was without an engineer. He instantly
whistled his brakes down, at the same
time sendinz his fireman back to uncouple
his "tender1' from the train, while he at
the same moment uncoupled his hose
and engine, and opened his throttle wide,
with red flair inuiped back on his tender.
t Ilejut looked lack, and saw his train
nearly stopped, and on dashed the two en
ginestoward each other like very demons.
He broke up gently on h? tender, and
finally stopped it, and in breathless si
lence watched for the collision. The en
gines came together, throwing each other
dear off the track, and smashed all to
pieces. He left his tender, and with his
llag moved on to meet the express going
ca3t. It being two minute" behind time,
he bad just time to "flag it," nnd it was
brought to a stop within a few feet of the
wrecked engines, and one of those terri
lbe.accidents was avoided.
A physician zoinz down tbe street
with a friend of his, said to him: "Let
us avoid that pretty little woman you
sec there on the left. She knows me, and
ttvsts on me looks of indignation. I at-
tended her husband." "Ah ! I see vtm

It is our unpleasant dut' to again re
count the sickening details of another
Indian butchery of white men on the up
per Missouri. Some time since we made
( rief mention of an Indian attack near
Fort B jford. To-day we give the details
of tho affair related to us by au eye wit
ness, and a partial participant.
It is the usual custon for Indian traders
to give the heads of different tribes a
feast each year. On tbe occasion to
which we refery-Mr.- Carpenter, whose
trading post is at Port Buford, had given
a feast to a large number of Indians.
After their repast, they went to the offi
cers' quarters at Fort Buford, and amused
the laiter with, a war da no?. Of course
every one? in or about the Fort was pres
ent to witness this novel and amusing,
performance, little dreaming that while
they were standing as F.et:taiors to wit
ness the war dance of a lot of quaii
peaceable savages, their friends, only
one and a half miles from the Fort, were
being murdered. It appears that four
wood-choppers named Peter S. Dugan.
whose parents reside in Butler county,
Penn., Jas. H. McLain, from some part
of Illinois, J. Uraldie, an Italian, and an
old plainsman named Adam Jones, went
out the morning to which : we allude, to
cut wood, about, one mile and a half from
the fort. About noon, ami before the
wood -choppers were able to give the
alarm, they were surrounded by about
seventy-five Indian warriors belonging to
the Unkapapa tribe, j The Iu-isos
mediately surrounded ai-i couimcucid au
attack Ou the small band of white men.
Tlie latter being well armed, fought with
a heroism very seldom heard of. For
one hour the unequal contest raged, at
the end of which time the four white
men were killed, but cot before they had
killed ten and dangerously wounded thir
teen more of their enemies. After the
Indians had killed the four white men,
they proceeded to take their .wa!js.
Previous to this time, Mr. J. W. Cooper,
hearing shots, and suspecting that every
thing was not right, got on his horso and
rode in the direction from whence the
sounds of the shooting proceeded. ' .'A
he came in sight of the Indians they
started for the Missouri river. Mr. C,
learning the condition of affiiirs, returned
immediately to the Fort, and gave the
alarm. A large number of citizens and
soldiers went in pursuit, but before they
rcached the battle ground the Indians
had scalped the four white men, au l
wore in the act of carrying off their own
dead.. Ihe, white men giving pursuit, j

the opposite bank and gaining protection
from the underbrush on its bank before
their white pursuers came within rifle
range. Ten Indians were killed outright
and thirteen wounded. The latter made
their escape. The Indies of the ten
dead Indians were fastened to the horses
of the soldiers and citizens and dragged
to Fort Buford, where they were cut up
and quartered. It would appear that
the four white men fought until they
were each one killed. When found they
were clustered together, some of them
having fired from fitly to seventy rounds
of cartridges.
Our. informant states that a part' of
tbe same band of Indians, on the same
day, and at about the same time, at
tacked a train belonging to Captain
Payne's party. He had one man
wounded and one horse stolen.
Old Indian traders express great fears
of a general Indian outbreak. They say
that the Indians never showed as much
hostility as they do at the.prcsvut time,
and everything indicates ah Indian war.

"And it came to pass, when he had
made an end of speaking unto Saul, that
the soul of Jonathan was knit with the
soul of David, and Jonothan loved him
as his own soul.
"Then Jonathan and David made a
covenant, because ho loved him as his
own soul.
And Jonathan stripped himself of the
robe that was upon nuu, and his gar
ment, even to hi sword, and to his bow,
and to hia girdle."
Tlie love of David and Jonathan is
personified in our day, by the affection
manifested by the Nebraska City iVws
for the Omaha Ilerohl. One day -we
find the Herald saving how tlie S'ejrx
has labored and toiled and. worked for
the interests of the State south of the
Platte, and straightway this is modestly
copied into the News.. Then, in the
columns ofthe Aw;.Twe read wherein the
Herald has worked and toiled for the
development of the State . North of the
Platte and particularly for the interests
of the city of Oniaha and this, during
the absence of the responsible editor of
the Jlcrold, finds its way into the col
umns of that paper.
Such affection, yea love, in these days
of cold-hearted r.css is most touching and
tender, and teaches an important lesson
in advocating Christian (?) kindness.
We express the hope that the bowels of
compassion in this case, in their yearn
ing, may not be productive of disastrous
results. Chronicle.

more money by running th'eir distilleries

do the same, than by making illicit

of a vut rolling interest in the stock: of

Erie management, and also those con
cerning the transference of the Great

As reeards the Hannibal and St. Jo
seph, a large majority of the stock ncill
remains in original (Michigan Central
and Chicago, Burlington and Qiiiney
stockholders') hands, and there is jio
prospect of change. Even were such an
event to occur, however, it would not be
looked upon as injurious to the Missouri
interests of the Michigan Central and
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy. The
Burlington and Missouri road (whi-h
will be open by December to Platts
nioulh), would, in such an event, furnish
a link m 'a materially shorter line be
tween Chicago and Kansas City. This
would require the .construction pf a road
from Ottumwa to Cameron, connecting
with the Cameron and Kansas Lify,
which would be practically an extension
of the new road ' inJ the uirectiotr of art

compared with that via Quincy, would

the advantage of having the Kansas
City line identical f r so great a distance
with the Chicago, Burlington and Quin

superfluous to speak. '

would be. more annoying ,to himself, if
he possessed the ordinary 'sensibility of

IL1P0RTAN TO BOTH SEXES.
There e-xists a false delicacy ari'l pride
amounting almost to prudery, in regard to con
sulting a physician in certain maladies. The
medical faculty recognize it. and are dumb.
Those of the public, ufilicted, acknowledge the
truth of it, and suffer in silence. The province
of this circular is to present the subject in its
true light.
Hundreds of live are lost every year by dis
eases which have been neglected or improperly
treated. In the case of young men there seems
no uju logy, and yet in many cares they attempt
to cure themselves with vile nostrums, nnd in
consequence shorten their -lives, and pas the
miserable remnant of existence with their blood
filled with the poi.son of a stilled, hut not cured
disease,, which must inevitably be transmitted
to the third aud lpurth generations.
With younz wciucu there seciu.s some excuse,
and yet their utmost secrecy will not conceal the
facts. Any intelligent physician who walks
theso streets can recognize among tho ladies, by
certain infallible tokens known to him. and of
which the sufferers are often totally ignorant,
the ravages of that wide spread scourge, tho
whites. Any inUilligci.t ph)ichu can poiii'.oiit
in his daily walks scores of this and kindred
complaints, iu both sexef. the- existence ol which
they ci.utiot ignore. The educated sutlcreT
knows the physician call dt toi't tttit. The phy
sician knows that the sufi'i-rer know- it. and yet,
in nine cases out of t"ti, the aliliet'-d individual
itili to consult the inau whyot iu know is cog
nizant, both of thu complaint anl the rnouris of
cure. Knowing that hcaiih can be restored, nnd
who can r'st'ro i!, tbej deliberately allow them- f
selves to Lwcoitie i'.r.re wrecks of humanity, arid !
