the Democratic Central Committee

and made a little speech, and said that
the people didn't care anything about
"names" any more, &c. If the Dr. did
utter any .such foolishness, then he
simply tells two different stories in
two different places; but then a Dem

been playing a black-mailing game and
that Tilton, at least, was bound to ruin

THE DEMOCRAT'S CONVENTION'.
The State of Nebraska is to be afflic
ted this year with a prolific crop of po
litical conventions.
Already calls have issued from four
different sources for as many distinct
i arty conventions, viz; the Republican
Sept 2, the Prohibitionist .Sept 8th, the
Independent Sept. Oth and the Demo
' . '-atic Sept. 19th 1874 all to be held sit
Lincoln.
The Republican party has as usual
t tken the initiative fixing the time,
-".lace and basis of representation, not
: nly for its own convention, but silso
Mr ht? other three factions which
:::ve thus far entered the field.
It is doubtless the right, proper and
correct thing that the fragmentary

POOR IJEKCIIES!
The great divine at Last speaks, and
gives a heart-rending siccount of sill
Ids trouble?; tie- accuses Tilton of
trying to ruin him, because he was
obliged to advise: Rowen to discard him
from the Independent and Union. In
regard to the main charge, he uses the
following language:
It is sufficient to say that at no in
interview which took place between
Mrs. Tilton and myself did anything
occur which might not have occurred
with perfect propriety between brother
and sister, between father and child,
between m;m of honor and wife, his
dearest friend, nor did anything ever
happen which I sought to conceal from
her husband."
lie denies writing the letters attrib
uted to him by Moulton, saying Moul
ton wrote them from conversa
tions sibout this matter, and he signed
them supposing that they were si syn
opsis of their talk, &c. which they sire
not. In short he says Jhe is innocent,
but has no means of proving it.
Moul ton's refusal to testify looks as
if he were sifraid to tell the truth
sibout his friend Tilton, although by so
doing he might further injure Beech
er. Reecher's great, grand mistake has
been in not denying the whole story in
the beginning. The confidence in Beech
cr was so great that the world would
then have taken his unsupported word
against sill the oaths of both Tilton
and Woodhull. Now it is doubtful if
any statement of his, will be accepted
as complete proof of his innocence.
(iRASSIIOl'PER.S. I
The reports from the west are dis
couraging enough, but judging by what
we hesird of Cass county and what we
afterwards saw with our own eyes, we
stiU cling to the opinion that the State
as a whole is more scared than hurt.
The damage is in spots, it is over
estimated, and our people sire creating
needljy 'md useless alarm by long
winded letters to the newspapers, de
scribing their forlorn condition and
making frantic appeals for aid. This
is all wrong, if any portion of the
country needs siid, really needs it, we
are rich enough and strong enough
and willing enough to aid it and the
proper application and representsitions
can be made through the State oflleers
and through the State Orange, and the
county officials or county Granges
can quietly tsike steps to secure such
siid and forward it to the needy ones.
This howl of ruiimtion is ruination
to all our Western counties if the' did
but know it. Some few men and fam
ilies are leaving and going back east,
and more will leave if we keep up this
clamor. Look the matter squarely in i
the face. Every country and State has j
some plague periodicsilly, Nebraska, as !
a State, has been remarkably free from j
them for many years.
To-day the northern counties of
Iowa are perishing with drouth, and
run over with grasshoppers. In Min
nesota the situation is still worse.
Parts of Wisconsin has nothing to brag
of. In Illinois the chinch-bug has de
stroyed the wheat, and many other por
tions of the country has suffered from
drouth to the extent of ruining sill the
small grain crops. We have a good
bighsilfofa corn crop in all eastern
Nebrsisksi, and maybe more; and a fair
crop of small grain throughout the
cultivated and settled part of the
State. We are riot starved out. burnt
out. nor need anybody get up and leave
yet a spell for fear of starvation or
lack of help from more fortunate
neighbors.
In our native Slate on the sea-board,
we have seen the grass dried up in Au
gust, and cows fed from thsit time on;
we have known blight to the peach
crop; bugs in the wheat, and murrain
in the cattle; cholera in the hogs, smd
distemper sweep the country of horses,
sdmost, smd yet no one thought of leav
ing there, because their f.xed hsib
lts, the gresit cost of their land and
habitations, and the utter want of
knowledge of any better place to go to,
at that time, anchored them down.
The loss of home, the surroundings of
a life time sill held them to the old fa
miliar spots.and the farmers bowed their
heads to the storm and worked on.
Here where the normsil condition is un
rest, whore few have expensive dwell
ings, where the land costs (as a rule)
si mere song, where no home ties arrest
and chain the wanderer, the very first
note of warning of evil, starts many
on the "pilgrim" track, in search of
some imsigined Utopia, where blight,
drouth, and grasshop; ers never come.
No such country can be found.
It would be idle to judge our fine
State by the reports of these unsettled
Bohemians of the soil. We defy the
record to show that eastern Nebraska
has ever had any thing like a complete
failure of crops since she was settled.
We can stand more rain, more
drouth, more grasshoppers and more
false and absurd rumors than any oth
er State on earth. Hurrah for Ne
braska! Hoppers or not.
A camp meeting of the Council
Bluffs district will be held at Glen wood

The attendance at the camp-ground
was fm;ill .Friday afternoon, , on ac
count of the inclemency of the weath

were very sibly entertsiined by the Rev.
Mr. Colt.
In the evening the crowd wan much
lsirger, although the weather was very
threatening. Elder Davis deliver a
very sible sermon on Holiness and
Sanctiiication. After the preaching
there w;is singing and exhortation by
the members uf the Church, during
which many persons went to the
"Mourner's Bench," and some of them
professed to h.ave found pardon for

OUR FAIR.
TO THE CITIZENS OF CASS COUNTY.
In behalf of the interests of a lauda
ble enterprise which demands the
attention and csireful consideration of
the people whose interest are effected.
I beg the privilege of submitting a
few earnest remarks ; which I hope
may prove of practical importance.
The approstching eighth smnual fair
of our county, which is to be held on the
15, Iff & 17 of September, is an object
of permanent importance to you all,
and should create a general interest
throughout every community in the
county.
In point of sigricultual productions
and mechanical skill we occupy a
promir.ent position with the foremest
counties of the state ; smd if a true
statement of fsicts could be arrived at,
I would probably be warranted in say
ing that we excel in many particulars"
Now our standing and reputation
must be sustained ; the future develop
ment of our resources must be looked
after if we expect to keep psice with
our sister counties in their onward
march of progress.
The developments of the day demand
immedisite attention and effort on the
part of every person owning a foot of
soil in Csiss county or who manufac
ture an article within its borders.
The question as to whether our
county fair shsill be the grandest suc
cess of the season or merely a nominal
concern, is left with the farmers sind
mechsmics of Cass county to decide.
See to it, that si decision is mside favora
ble to your Iwst interest.
We have the resources, we hsrVe the
facilities, we have the genuine pluck
and energy to eclipse any county fair
in the state, if we lay siside our per
sonal smd sellish desires and make one
grand united effort.
This is no locsil affair ; it is not for
the benefit of any one man, or for any
particular clsiss of people ; but it is for
all ; the farmer, the mechanic, the sir
tist, the merchant, it is open to the
world, every one has sin equal privilige
and is invited to psuticipsiie. Then let
us arouse to si sense of our importance
and come to a resilization of the
resjionsibilities involved. We wsvnt
the farmer to exhibit his fine blooded
stock and the products of his farm ;
the mechanic his carriages, wagons,
iigricultural impliments and the many
specimens of machinery, the artist his
magnificent paintings ; we want a
liberal display of domestic manufac
ture ; and especisilly do we want the
fruit productions of our county shown
up to the best advantsige ; we wsmt
every one who manufsictures or pro
duces an article to exhibit ; if you
have nothing to place on exhibition
yourself come and see whsit others
sire doing.
A splendid opportunity is given the
granges ofCsiss county to compeete for
si liberal premium sis will be seen by
refering to the csitalouge.
Special attention be given to this
by the respective granges, smd let none
fsiil to exhibit.
Not withstanding the effects of the
drouth and visitation of the grass
hoppers I think Cass county can msike
si fine exposition ; and for this reason
if for no other, the farmers should
make an extra effort to show what our
resources sire, even under depressing
circumstances.
No entrance fee will be charged for
stock of smy kind ; instead thereof a
deduction of 25 per cent will be made
from the premiums awarded.
Economy has prompted the as
socisition this sesison to raise the price
of family tickets to S2.00 ; they have
deemed it expedient in order to
liquidate sill demands against the
society and place it on a good financhtl
bstsis at the close of the present yesir;
we hope no one will take exceptions
to this, sis it is of minor importance to
sill interested when the ultimate result
is considered.
Goe. R. W. Furnas will deliver an
oration upon the fair grounds on the
2nd dsiy of the exhibition.
Any one desiring a premium list can
procure it by calling at my office up
stairs over the post office.
Most Respectfully Submitted,
R. W. WINDHAM,
Sec. Cass County Agr. Ass'n.
We acknowledge from Tip-Top
a copy of the premium list of the Cass
County Agricultural Fair, to be held
sit Piattsmouth, Sept. 15, 16 and 17th
next. Its general style and rosike-up
is as far ahead of the dirty, smutty and
miserable lotch issued by the Omaha
Herald for the State Fait, this year, as
the latter is below a third rate office be

A Stock Man Murdered.
SnNKV, Neb.. August 14.
W. II. Taylor yesterday discovered
the body of a man, wrapped in blan
kets, in some brush on Lodge Pole
Creek, near Bushnell. shot through the
hesid, his boots off, and pockets rilled
of their contents. Suspicion was sit
tached to a party who went through
with horses the day previous. Before
reaching Bushnell, the party contained
three men. seventy horses and one
wagon. When next seen there were
but two men, six horses and no wagon.
Citizens Axe and Smith of Sidney, cap
tured one of the party last night at
Lodge Pole Stsition, while he was
boarding a train. He gave, his name
as Gsiston, sicknowleged his participa
tion in the murder smd stated that his
companion Crawford, lisid abandoned
the stock, except one horse, smd star
ted for New Mexico.
Mounted citizens, headed by Acting
Sheriff Smith, are on his trail and will
doubtless capture him ere sunset.
Gaston says the murdered man's
name is John Crissman .sind that Criss
man & Worth owned the stock.
Great excitement prevails.

A great many ultra-virtuous people,
as well sis some whose virtue cannot
be put down at quite so high a figure,
are continusilly exclaiming, sis they put
on an expression of the most intense
disgust and impatience, "1 do wish the
papers would quit talking about this
wretched scandsil I am so tired of
reading sibout it it makes me sick to
see anything sibout Beecher and Til
ton." It is possible thsit we do not
have as good an opinion of human na
ture as we ought to have, but Ave can
not help saying to ourselves, mentally,
whenever we hear expressions such as
the above, "There's another lie, to be
charged to the account of the Plymouth
Church. We can't help thinking so,
for we have noticed, ever since the
j scsuidal ciune first before the public,
j that whatever the papers print about

read the news from Europe who don't

and hsive no idesi of the political situa

who is not able to tell us the "very Li

don't believe that people read things

good people who are "sick and tired"
of this thing, and yet devour with a

It beleived that Theodore Tilton
! will never hold' up his head again.
j The Count Johannes ha.- espoused
Jhis cause.
The following hits the nail on the
head, sts far as Tilton is concerned:
Theodore. Tilton, in allowing
dear and sacred letters which psiss
tween man and wife, to become
property of the ink fiend, loses what
ever of personal sympathy the world
held for him. Let all the specious and
true arguments in fovorof this step be
granted ; let the right to bring them
forward sis evidence be granted; grant
that bis wife hsis unnaturally turned
against him in the hour of trouble;
and thus giving him the benefit of ev
ery doubt, there still remains his overt
sict that outrages decency and could
hsive originated only in the mind of an
insane man or adsistard of the lowest
type. There are certsiin boundaries of
tilth even in the loathesome and stink
ing evidence of the witness on the pub
lic stand, and beyond this the lsuv does
not seek to penetrate. But this man
descends lower than the commonest va
grant court when he voluntarily gives
to the press, years of corespondence
from his wife to himself. Bead the
letters, filled with the most lavish sind
extra vsigant expressions of endearment
that a loving woman could shower up
on her idol, smd than picture to your
self the msike-up of amsm who etuld
give these tender heart-messages to
the world with the remark, that he
"doubted the good taste of the move."
As against the .assertion of Morris
and Tilton, et ., of Mrs. Tilton's at
tempt to ruin her husbsind, we have
her sworn stsitement, and this is the
very document that is given in apology
for the publishment of the letters.
Judge Morris's excuse is "that these
letters cover the very period in which
Mrs. Tilton claims thsit she wsis subjec
ted to ill treatment at the hands of her
husband." It is true, sind in her stsite
ment she does not hesitate to say she
loved him even when she wsis so hard
ly desilt with. Her evidence is clear
and explicit on this point.
But leaving the question of guilt
out of the case altogether, and sisserting
the innocence of neither accuser or sic
cused, the first sentiment is that of su
preme contempt for Tilton's course.
If he is strong in his csise, there were
other weapons to use better thsvn
these. Twelve columns of a great pa
per tilled with these inner thoughts
which belong only toman smd wife
and God overhead! It is psiralled with
si csise wherein a man is called upon to
sacrifice his wife's honor to save his
life and hers, and some men there are
who would do it. The man who rends
asunder the veil that sepersites the
Hearthstone from the World, csm
consort with harlots and still glory in
an "ideal home." Omaha licjmblican.
The Fanole or the !Sick.
A diseased imagination is the usual concom
itant of a torpid stomach. There is no com
plaint to which humanity is subject which the
dvspeptie does not at different times suppose
that he has. or is about to have. The only way
to disabuse the sufferer's mind of these fancies,
which sire tealities to him, is to infuse life and
vijror into his digestive organs, and the most
potent preparation for this purpose is llostet
ter's Stomach liitters. There is no affection of
the stomach, no irregularity of the liver or dis
order of the bowels, consequent upon indiges
tion, for which it is not an absolute specific.
Our'uiK the twenty-five years that it has been
the standard tonic and alterative of America,
millions of dvspeptics have recovered their
health and the capacity to en joy life by the sole
aid of this wholesome and searching vegetable
preparation. As an assimilant and anti-bilious
auent, a remedy for lassitude, debility, nervous
ness and morbid fancies, there has never been
anything comparable to it iu any age or coun
try. ia-4t
