Dr Blue, of the Nebraska City Neien,
is not of the Dr. Miller utripe of politi
cians who think it a religious duty they
'owe their party to abuse every Republi
can official in the country, and charge
corruption upon them without regard to
facts. It docs not endorse the whole
sale charges of the Omaha Herald
'against Dr. Larsh, and docs not credit
'the report that he is cruel to his patients

'Pr. Larsh is known auieng his old

'most humane and successful physicians."
The Omaha Herald is just as likely to
become Republican as we are to turn
Democratic; whilo it makes not the
least difference on which side of politics
auch a paper as the Plattsmouth Herald
array itself.
And, moreover, in spite of the feeble
and chronic yelping of- puch curs, we
propose to recognize politiral integrity,
and to excoriate political corruption
wherever we find it, though our dctmn
ciation of wrong shall offend it and its
master at Lincoln. Omaha Triblican.
It may "make not the least differ
ence" to the Republican, under Mr.
Thomas' management, "on which fide
of politics such a paper as the Platts
mouth Herald arrays itself," neither
does it make much difference to Mr.
Thomaa as to "which fide of politics" he
arrays his own paper, if we may judge
from the course he has pursued since
his ddrcnt in our State. There was
: a time when it was different with
' the Repukhcan, and when it wai looked
upon as the exponent of the principles
of the Republican pa.ty. But under its
present editorial management it has be
come a weakness to the party which it
pretends to champion ; and Mr. Thomas
has doDO more, perhaps, than any other
ono man in the State, in the same length
of time, to disorganize the Republican
party. Ia fact it is currently reported
in this vicinity, and generally belie ed,
that his weak-kneed and vasciluting cause
as a Republican, an J the damage he has
caused the Republican party in the
State, has become so distasteful to
the loyal stockholders of t he
journal that they have decided
to dipenc with his services so soon as
they can legally do so. We know
nothing as to the truth of this report,
but we do know that if they have not
"decided upon this course it is high time
they had. Whether or not it makes
any difference which side of politics the
Herald arrays itself, we do know the
Herald, unlike the editor of the Re
publican (we do not say the Republican,
for that paper under the editorial man
agement of Mr. Balcomb, and other
editors prior to Mr. Thomas, was a gen
uine Republican ehcet) never was array
ed on any other thin the
i i "' ' j : i
pokert and fearless in its denunciation
of "shysters" and political demagogues,
hence it offends all that class of men,
and docs not seek their good will.
There is one very significant fact, which
we mention for the benefit of thoe who
may wish to know it, that Cass is the
only river county in Nebraska that ilect
ed a straight Republican ticket at the
recent October election. We do not
claim that the Herald wan the cause of
this, but if the paper has any influence
in politics it is evidently on the light
side It has been iutiinated to us, by a
very tto-irid Republican who ought to
know, that the secret of Mr. Thomas'
hostility to the Herald was because of
this very result. Perhaps it is so we
hall not pretend to say.

Now, 'we submit to all candid and
fair minded men if the above is the
proper way for a newspaper to treat men
of any kind, either as individuals or as
servants of the people. It matters not
who aro the contractors for either of
these buildings. The only question is
whether or not the State is being wroDged,
or whether ' Acting Governor James is
guilty of any misdemeanor in conse
quence of these contracts. . If the Her
nld knows of any "wrong in this matter
it is iu duty as a public journal to state
tchat that icrong in; but it is not manly
to insinuate that some one is guilty of
wrong doing unless there is actual
grounds therefor; and if there are
grounds sufficient to warrant any men
tion at all theafc shouM be given, and
not a mean insinuation thrown out, cal
culated to' injure the parties concerned
without giving them any chance for de
fense, because there is no accusation
made. If the Herald knows of any
thing out of the way in the contracts
above mentioned, let it speak out inan
fully and it shall have our support and
assistance in proclaiming and exposing
the wrong, regardless of who it hurts ;
but we cannot look on in silence at such
underhanded thrusts as the above.

The November issue of Tiltton's Jour

giving an account of the proceedings of
the American Pomological Society, at
Richmond, Va., says:
"As was well remarked by the presi
dent in his address, in speaking of the
changes which have taken place during
the existence of this society, 'States and
sections of the Union which were scarce
ly known by name, now confribute noble
fruits to grace our exhibitions, and noble
men to join us in efforts for the pro
motion of the public good;' and it was
gratifying to know that the highest pre
niiuru for the best collection of fruits,
which two years ago was awarded to
Kansas one of these youthful States
was this year carried off by her still more
youthful sister, Nebraska ; and this
pr ze of one hundred dollars, generously
offered by the Virginia State Agricultur
al Society, with equal generosity donated
by the Nebraska delegation to the Ameri
can Poiiiological Society. Besides this
collection from Nebraska, where fourteen
years ago, not a single fruit tree of any

We have reliable information from
Omaha that the various express com

charges to that point from this city and

Discrimination in favor of Chicngo ....SI 25
The distance from this city to Omaha
by rail is something less than from Chi
cago by rail, and the discrimination
thereby becomes more marked. Some
standaid which will guarantee a unifor
mity in freight, express and passenger
tariffs should be adopted by carriers and
adhered to, that the entire population
which such carriers serve may be equally
advantaged. The discrimination, as
shown above, is a fatal one to our busi
ness with Nebraska, and the express
companies, in maintaining it, proclaim
themselves to be enemies of St. Louis.

The way to remedy this is for St. Lou
is to show herself a friend to her own
interests, and to push through the Ne:
braska Trunk Railroad to Plattstnoutb.
The building of only 75 miles of railroad
on this line will give St. Louis direct
connection with all points in Nebraska,
and render her freights and express
cheaper than that of Chicago.

any move that would give you public

Friend Hatha way, Editor Herald:
Dear Sir: Oa leaving Plattsmouth,
about a ear and a half since, I be
lieve I paid you a little on subscription
for that welcome guest of mine the Her
ald, but not enough to insure its com
ing anything like the time it has already
come. For past favors I enclose you
the subscription price for one year, and
shall be glad to receive the Herald as
long as I shall feel able to pay for it ; and
when I don't feel so disposed I shall
drop you a note and say stop. I have
several papers about me, but none that
1 pick up with more interest than I do
the Herald. I am pleased to learn
from it- columns that your Fitz. is still
progressing with building railroads ; but
I am very sorry to learn from the last
number that my friend R. C. Cushing is
in suth delicate health. But before this
comes to hand I hope you will be able
to report that the Lord will have restored
him to health again, so that in the next
I shall hear that "Richard is himsrlf
affain.'' I also see by your reports that
the B. & M. is progressing rapidly.
Well, you have all of you my best wish
es, even the" Herald, Republican as it
i.. I b'ke to read it, but it couldn't
save the Governor. Don't let up on
those Salt Land Thieves ! Show up cor
ruption everywhere in every ring and
every corner, and -you will have lots of

It has recently been stated in a public
lecture, that no man ever raised himself
to eminence who was not willing to give
more than an equivalent for his wage or
who stopped to eouut the hours. The
careers of James Watt, if cwsre Stephen
son, and other eminent mechanics, fully
support ilia accuracy of the above state
ment, and at the preseut time there are
in Philadelphia many engineers, ma
chinists and manufacturers, possessing
handsome fortunes, who commenced life
as industrious work men in what the world
would consider an humble position, and
who have attained their well-known dis

their efforts to labor conscientiously.
A Chicago letter contains this interest

Rev. Robert Collyer, of the Church
of the Unity, Unitarian called his peo
ple together last Sunday, and preached
over the ruins of his noble house. He
expressed the hope that the same tender
ties of love which had bound them to
gether would not now be broken. He
knew that there would be nn utter im
possibility to rebui'd the church in the
same magnificent style as the one jut
destroyed, but he urged that some p ace
might be secured, no matter how hum
ble, where they could all gal her together
as of old, and together send upward to
heaven prayers and songs of praise and
thauksgjving. He hoped that he m'cht
be retained as pastor, and he thought
that he would be as cheap a man as
they eeuld find. lie had once preached
for 75 cents a year, and he could do f o
again. He could stil! make as good nails
and horc shoes as any man that stood
before an anvil, and he was willing to do
so again if nececssary.
One of our exchinges is accountable
for the following highly amusing state
ment. Gray hairs in Wilmington, must
be exceedingly troublesc uie at this time:
Down ia Wilmington some time aso
an um man wno was very leeu.e was
helped across a crowded street by a youth
of tweuiy. A month after the old man
died, and as an expression of gratitude
he left the youth $40,000. And now no
old mans life is sal'a in AVil nington.
All the young men have their ambition
excited, and as soon as any venerable man
appears on the side walk, a dozi-n chaps
rush at him grab him by the trowsers
and the collar and the back of the hair,
and try to carry him across the street
whether he wants to go or not. When
he gets there a lot more fasten on him
"and send him back again, aud then pre
sent their cards. So the old men in
Wilmington are having a livejy time now,
and chey have got to tack up the street
whenever they go qpt for a walk.
We have heard of many amusing in
stances of the impudence and wit of the
legal profession, but nothing lately more
amusing than the following from Cedar
Rapids Times:
A few days since, an important case
came up for adjudication in Mt. Vernon,
in which a leading leal light from the
county seat end one from an adjoining
county were Attorneys in Chief. Much
difficulty was had in securing a jury,
owing to the rejection of most every ouo
called by the Attorneys. Finally, one of
Mt. Vcruon's best und most substantial
citizens was called, when the county seat
Attorney asked. "Do yau find any fault
with him sir?" "No," replied his an
tagonist, "I guess he'll do, I don't
think yon can buy him." Jumpins to
his feet like a i.itch ball tov man with n
bullet for ballast and looking his com
petitorin the eye most ferociously, the
county seat lawyer indignantly asked,
"Do you think vou eau buv rue sir?"
The other deliberately took out his wal
let, hunted through it carefully, then
searched leisurely through his pockets,
then straightening himself up, with a
look of ming'ed disappointment and dis
gust, "No sir, I don't think I can to day,
a I have nothing smaller than a five cent
nicklewiili me." The effect upon the
audience and the man from the county
seat, we leave our readers to imagine.

Place a man in a position that will
fearfully taxiiim and try him a position
that will often bring the blush to his
cheek and the sweat to his brow, a peti
tion that will overmaster him at times,
and cause him to rack his brain for re
sources. Place him in a position like
this; but every time he trips go to his
rescue ; go not with word of blame or
censure, out go with manful words of en
couragement; look him boldly in the eye,
and speak them with soul and emphasis.
This is the way to make a man of a boy,
and a giant of a man. If a man has
pluck and talent, no matter whether he
ever filled a given position or not, put
him in it, if worthy, and he will soon
not only fill it, but outgrow it. But put
one in a position with a faint heart this
is the way to kill him. Put him in grand
lv, with most unmistakable confidence.
Drop no caveats but boldly point the way,
and then stand by with a will and coun
tenance of a true friend. Thus try twen
ty men, such as have been named, and
nineteen will succeed.

A writer in the American edition of
Chambers' Edinburg Journal, published
before the fire, stated that in the neigh
borhood of Chicago are enormous de
posits of "oil-bearing limestone," ef
which many houses are built. Inspired
by this suggestion numerous papers are
discussing at the cast whether the an
controlable fury of the fire, and the rapid
demolition of all our stone structures,
were not owing to the use of this bitu
minous stone. Various buildings are
cited, and their speedy destruction
lool-cd upon as proof that the intense
boat under which they yielded, was due
to the presence of the oil in the stone.
To all of which it is only necessary to
state that the supposed oil bearing stone
was not used ia this city, except in some
cases for found a ions, which are all intact,
and that the only structure of any size
built of that material was the Second
Presbyterian Church, the walls of whioh
are all standing and did not crumble or
melt under the heat. The stono mainly
used was the Athens marble, a limestone
formation, handsome, easily worked
which had becomtj a favorite with build
ers. Until this fire it had exhibited no
special incapacity to resist heat. Chi

them every sign of your professional oc
cupation, so that your patients may en

with actual elevation of heart." If there
is any place which should be made bright
and cheerful, and contain something in
teresting and amusing to tbe mind, it is
the rooui where patients are td:en com
pelled to wait an hour. We have often
seen them, weary and restless, with
nothing to do but to gloomily reflect on
the ills their flesh is heir to, growing
each moment more impatient, and feel
