i 1114 loci ' as it is familiarly called
rrr.vs throuiihout the length an.
breadth of the bud, and can be had for

abundant fur all the grains, :.nd it is a
i..--.st noticeable fact that every farmer in
Nebraska, has grown wealthy by tilling
t!.e rieh and most prolific prairies of thi
garden State.
The climate of Nebraska is so lit tl
understood among our eastern readers
that we will lie pardoned for saying
word in reference to it. Statistical tables
tarefully compiled from a scries of ob
fervations through ruany years, show the
following mean temperatures : Spring
4K3: summer, autumn, il .4;
wit.ter, o0".l, giving an average mean
fr the year of 5l'.C. This range of
temperature will compare very favorably
with the finest climes of the teiaperate
latitudes, and accounts to a great extent
for the remarkably salubrious character
of our climate, and, in fact, is the same
u. the aTiuual mean of Santa Ye, New
Mexico, in latitude 3: The mean
annual ruin fall is HT-i'S inches, and is
distributed as follows: Spring, 10-SO
sunnr.er, autumn. ?-2 ; winter,
1-31, the largest fill bi'.ng in A ril,
averaging G-."7; May, -!-3"i, and June
5-07 none of the other months reach
ing 3-0i, oidy two of them 12-"io three
of them l-tx, and the rest being
fractional portions of "one." Thi
approximates very closely to the average
fall in many portions of the State of
New York.
There is a belief extant that Nebraska
is very arid. That is a fallacy. There
is no finer country in the world, and the
abundance and nutritious character of
i:s grasses prove conclusively how errone
ou is any such impression. Most of the
writers on Nebraska have never put
their feet outside the wagon routes
"a-eroas the plains," and know compara
tively little about it. As the country
settles up we find the "American desert"
always receding to the west Our set
tlers have not yet found it, and we be
lieve they naver will in Xelraslia.
The entire State is well watered by
numerous small rivers and their tributa
ries, the Platte reaching across the
hr!e Stato, from cast to west. Innu
merable springs, of the clearest and cool
est water, bubble out of the banks and
valleys throughout the land, and afford
"plendid water for all ordinary purposes,
The cry against the scarcity of fuel is
sharing the fte of the old myth about
"the Great American Desert." No one
in Nebraska has suffered yet for want of
fuel. There is more timber in Nebraska
to-day than there was fifteen years aro,
Many will be surprised to hear such an
amnion: but it is nevcrthok?? true.

Not a year pas?es without hundreds of
thousands of young trees being pet out
by our settlers ; and we know of large
groves of trees to-day which were planted
within our own recollection, and which
now afford fuel and fencing posts to the
owners. Coal, too, is being found in
abundance in various portions of the
State, and the inexhaustible supply of
this article immediately west of us can
lie easily procured through our rapidly
extending system of railways.
Fiuit of all kinds can be cultivated
successfully in Nebraska, and we claim
with pride the fact that the largest apple
grown in the United States was grown
by our friend Mr. Perry Walker, of this
county last season.
ljct candid men in the eastern States
shake off the incubus of old school tra-
litions about "Indians," and '"the
American desert let them cross the
Missouri and they will behold the "gar
den of America" right here in Nebraska,
with a soil that withstands all drouth
and all rainy seasons alike that is
deeper and richer than in any other
State in the Union, and which is des
tined soon to make those men who avail
themselves of its richness, happier and
wealthier than they can ever hope to be
among the stumps, stones and worn out
forty acre lots of the cast. Come to the
west, if you would be happy, wealthy,
healthy and wise.

THE 14 WAR.
Tbe I'eare Policy Abandoned.
We published a dispatch Saturday
which indicated very plainly what Gene
ral Sherman thinks is necessary to be
done to iniure safety and peace on the
frontier. Ho orders Red Cloud and bis
murdering companions back onto the
reservation, and does it in a manner
that says plainly that he means business.
Sheridan has all along declared that
nothing but stern war would do these red
scoundrels an' good. The following
semi-official announcement, made in the
Washington Chronicle if the 20th, looks
r.n though the "fresh paint" and the
"war danee" of the noble red men had
finally penetrated the Departments at
Washington, and that measures for the
protection of the i-ioneer settlers had
been determined upon :
"Dispatches were received here on
Saturday confirming advices heretofore
liAd, which indicate that Indians in Da
kota are on the warpath in good earnest.
A telegram says that they have appeared
near some of the forts in that lerritory
with fresh paint on and dancing the war
dance. At one point they were estima
ted at two or three thousand, and were
bent on hostilities. In view of a threatened
general Indian war, General Sherman
has ordered all the available military
forces to the frontier to protect th
white vettlers. Orders were sent to all
the troops in Kentucky to move to the
Western front without de'ay, and regi
ments will be sent from other places
from which they can be spared. The
military authoritie here fear that an In
dian war is near at hand."

A nomrl leafed Otter.
The Detroit I'vat says a resident of
that city lias lately become the possesor
of a vonnz male otter, that, from its
thoroughly domesticated habits, is a
great curiosity. This one was captured
at Crvstal Late. Gratiot Co., on the first
of April, by the Chippewa Indians, who
killed its mother. A few 4lays later it was
nurehased by Justin Stewart, of Crystal
Lake, for one dollar, and when four and
a ha.f months old was bought hy .Mr
Smith. The animal is now about two
feet in length, arid having been thor
oughly domesticated, is not only perfectly
harmless, but appears to have the great
est affection for children, and lies motion
less tor hours if permitted to lie by a
child's side.
Its food consists of bread and milk,
fresh meat and fish, all of which it eats
with avidity, but does not care for water
unless the weather is hot It follows its
owner to the river nearly every da', and
will swim off a few yards from the shore
and watch until a fish comes swimming
past, when it will dart for its prey so
rapidly that the eye can scarcely follow it
It makes but two kindsof noise; the first
like that of a piping chic ken, only more
shrill, and the second that of grief, re
sembling, more than anything else, the
crying of a child. It is very playful, and,
lying on its back, will play with a string
or stick for hours.

1VLATTSMOUTII, NEBRASKA, THURSDAY, MAY
The Plattsmouth llerald takes excep
tions to our mention of the election of
the peoples ticket in that city, and wants
to know where we get our information.
We do not remember, and so withdraw
the expression and give the Democracy
the credit of the victory. Liucohi Jour
nal. The IltralJ did take exceptions, and
for reasons that are obvious to every Re
publican in this locality. The facts are
as we stated before, that no "peoples"
ticket was run, or even taVced of at the
recent city election. It is also pretty gen
erally conceded, by both democrats and
republicans, that the Democratic ticket
could not have beea successful without
the help of some voters classed as Re
publicans. Had the statement in the
Journal been the only one in relation to a
"jKoples" ticket having carried the day
over the regular Republican ticket, we
should not, probably, have given it a
second thought ; but the same story ap
pears to have found expression simulta
neously in various parts of the State, and
it looked to us very much as though some
effort was being made to circulate the re
port that general dissatisfaction existed
in the Republican ranks at Plattsmouth,
and that the nominations made at the
convention were so distasteful as to call
forth a peoples nomination. We did,
therefore, desire to ascertain where and
from whom this information was obtained,
in order that Republicans might know to
whom they were indebted for it. We
are disappointed that the JoMmoi-hould
publish a statement of such importance
to Republicans in this locality without
remembering where it obtained the infor
mation. As we said before, it uu t
have got it from sou.e other source than
the llerald, for we stated, emphatically,
the next day after the election, that we
were beaten in a square stand-up fight
with the democracy, and the Journal
must have seen this statement for we
send our daily edition to it every morn
ing. Hie wording of the paragraph
above would indicate that the
Journal is in some way interested in cre
ating the impression that it was a "peo
ples" ticket that was elected. It is not
difficult to distinguish between an honest
desire to be just and an attempt at coy
eringupthe truth and a promulgation
of false idas. The Republican of this
locality have sufficient discernment to un
derstr.nl the difference between tbe two
courses.
Some time since the Omaha Herald
tame out in an article stating that the pro
posed ehange of line asked by the B. &
M. 11. 11. Company in Nebraska, involved
the granting to the company of another
large tract of government land, and that
it contemplated abandoning its route and
bearing off south west In answer to
that we said we only hoped the latter
statement might prove true in the future,
but at the same time we informed the
ll'rahl that the bill under considera
tion in Congress, contemplated no such
action, but only granted thi peivilege
to the company of varying from their
established line sufficiently to obtain
easier grade and lighter work.
The llercill, however, adheres to its
origional statement, regardless of facts to
the contrary staring it in the face. We
now reiterate our former statement that
all that is asked by the bill introduced
by Mr. Tipton in the Senate, and that
all that is desired under it Ly the Com
pany, is the simple privilege of varying
from the line filed in tbe Interior De
partuicnt sufficiently to obtain the best
grades and easiest line for construction
within their land grant, and that they do
not sak for a single fot more of land,
nor a single change in the grant as it now
stands. We ha-e it direct that over
$200,000 can be saved to the Company
if they can have the privilege of thus
changing the line at some points? The
terminal point will be the same whether
the bill passes or not, and the general
line of the road will be the same. Will
the Herald correct its statement in re
gard to this matter? It is but justice to
the Company that it should do so, and
it is but justice to Mr. Tipton and the
other supporters of the bill, that
it should do so. Will it?

Frontier Jnstlee-Two Men Hang by

Helena, Montana April 3.
This morning a meeting was called to
decide what should be done with the
prisoners, Lecompton and Joseph Wil
son, who had been identified by Lenhart,
the man they robbed and attempted
to kill on the night of the 27th in'st.
District Judge Lymmes first addressed
the meeting, and strongly protested
against any interference with the civil
law, stating that the time for the vigil
ance committees had passed, and ad-
nsed the peop'e to disperse. J he meet
ing was then addressetl by some of the
leading citizens, statins it was necessary
to strike terror to the rest of the band
known to exist at this time, and that im
mediate action should be taken in the
case. A committee of twenty-four was
selected to try the cae. The prisoners
came before the committee and confessed
their crime. A more cool arid premedi
tated robbery and murder could not have
been planned. At 2 o'clock p. m. the
committee reported both guilty, and they
were sentenced to be hung at 44 p. m.
Over three thousand people were con
gregated at the hangman tree. At 5 p.
m. a wagon on which the prisoners stood
with a rope about their necks, was driven
from under them, and frontier justice
was satisfied.
The citizens meeting was not a vigil
ance committee, but composed of the
best citizens of the county. The whole
affair was conducted in a most quiet but
determined manner, and no one ques
tions the justness, both of the trial and
the verdict.

Ftrago says the man who was arrested
at the race course yesterday where the
Emperor wax expected on examination
was found to have a loaded revolver and
a forminable dagger. Subsequently his
house was searched a large quantity of
bombs was found. Hie ramifications of
the plot against the emperor seem much
more wide spread than first supposed.
