GOOD HTOC U.
We tire very much pleaded with Cass
county in respct to stock matters. So
far at least we have seen better blooded
stock and wore of it in this county than
anywhere ebe iu the State, aud hopu by
a visit to our breeder's farm.", aud from
their statistics to be able to prove that
raising good stock does pay. We never
had much opinion of Texas and other
breeds of that kind of ctttle for a farmer
to keep permanently on hid farm or to
help multiply. Used merely as con
sumers for corn and hay, they Ujay d ,

- On Monday evening the Court ITousa
was packed fall of enthu-Utic peop'e
all bent on havirg a Grand Trunk Rail
road built in the State of Nebraska. It
was the liveliest turn out we have yet
s-en in Plattj-mouth
Captain Miir.-h.iii was called to the
chair, and Fred. Dorriugton appointed
Secretary. .
Col. Furnas and Mr. Hoi bach stated
the objects of the un-etinti, and informed
the people what had been accomplished
in the counties below.
Doctor Living-ton advocated county
bands being voted for two routes; one
up the Weeping Water and the other up
the Missouri Valley. Said the people of
Piattsmouth must not be selli-h, that
the arguments he had used to induce
people in the souihei part of the county
to vote bonds, were good words and
good s nse then; "and he had promised
to aid them whenever the time came
j.t they could get a road, and he now
proposed to do so.
D- II. Wheeler said we must have
the road, it must be built.
Mr. Reese inquired who the Company
were, and what guarantee the people
had that the road would be built even
after the bonds weie voted?
Mr. Ilorbach explained, and stated
that the Company was'a ho.ta vie Com
pany, calltd the Nebraska, and St.
Louisi Trunk R. it. Co , and that ii
was composed of citizens of Nebraska
St. Louis, New York and lio.-tun ; a
g o 1 ctroug Company, th:U ouly wanted
to know that they could have some a d
from the counties that would be benefit
ted by the road they woul i go ahead
and build it.
Povey told the Quaker Story aud
made a good speech for bonds.
Mr. Miekelwait thought we could carry
precinct bond.- easily, was doubtful about
county bnds though.
A re.-olution was then offered by Dr.
Livingston, the substance of which wa
to submit a proposition to tho County
CommisMoners to be put before the
people a-king for 6,000 a utile, not to
exceed $135,000, however ; the bouds to
he placed in the hands of trustees, and
delivered, one-half on grading and tie
inc t he road, and the other ha'f on it
completion. The proposition, if su
Viiue 1 by the County Commissioner,
wi;l L.i pu'4ished in fail to morrow.
lhe following named gentlemen were
appointed on that Committee: M. L.
White, R. R. Livingston. K. G. Dovey,
C. Heisel, G. II. Black. D. H. Wheeler.
J It. Clark, M. R Reese, F. M. Dor
rington, W. Miekelwait. J. C. Fox, and
A. V. Matthews
This Committee, and the gentlemen
of the road present, will wait on our
Count Commissioners this afternoon.
FItriT ITEMS.
The first apples of the sea-oa were fir
sale on our streets yesterday.
Mr. Lees!ey showed us an apple
branch 2 feet 1 inch iu length, which had
C3 young apples on it. They were from
the size of a walnut to that of a Ftiia'l
epg; just one cluster in fact, and tho tree
is, loaded all over the same way.
44 Pot," of Cass, a centlemin lately ar
rived here, has a yaid "plum" full of
peaches. The little boys hook 'em
through the fence so fast that it keeps
two doctors on the run to stop the cho
lic tc., but that does not militate again t
the fact that Mr. Pottenger's thow of
peaches is very fine, though his show fur
peaches to eat this fall looks slim owing
to the boys.
Dr. Wiley, of Three Groves, sends ra
a basket of fine apples large enough to
use in cooking, and from evry quarter
good accounts reach us of an abundant
yie;d of everything green and growable.

what to suy, unless the oft repeated re

to old ru?, any more in politics than in
m "dicinv. Not long -mee an old ac-q-nin

experiment too well to suit an." May
it not le that in this case, it is aa ex

'lhe Standard thinks GrcHey would
not be an eligible- candidate were it not
for bis electioneering strength. He is
not hs honest as a partisan can be, and
si ows occasional glimpses of rouh good
Pens; but he is violent in desperation,
without regular education and devoid
of experience in the administration of
public KfTair. In fact, he is a respectable
yeornan of tho last generation. Alto
