STATE OF NEDUASKA.
Mr. Geo. Thrall, present lessee has
re-Ietised the Grand Central, Omaha,
for a term of live years. It is one of
the lt .st first class Hotels in the United
.States.
The Uiii'in had ;i very ple;is:tnt des
cription of the trip to Lincoln during
the State Convention. Its comments
on Patrick OMJannon and Iiosey were
decidedly race-'.
George Francis can't understand
how he came to he put in the Tomhs,
for puMishing the l'eecher scandal and
now when every hotly is publishing
the same thing nobody gets shut up?
The Ii.'publiean Central Committee
at Omaha refuse Gen. Livingston's
ch tllenge for debate, on the ground
that the I).m c"iMts are the only op
ponents t!py recognize in the fight.
Only HO delegates to the United
Peoples and Independent Conventions
at Lincoln, and remember, their call
was based on the Ilepublican call w hich
if fully attended should have given the
two conventions HIS members.
Mr. I5i530ll says he used to take tho
IIkuald, find was then a Ilepublican.
Here's the trouble; he juit the IIek
a Li), and has been lost ever since. Take
the IIi:i:At.i) again friend Uissell, and
you'll get over this spell.
Mr. Henry Dtiliuis, our well known
Cass County horse man has sold his
famous Stallion Harry Clay to a Mr.
Dender of Lincoln. Mr. DuDois will
make some line entries of horses at
Lincoln, and at the Omaha State Fair.
Look at the roll of Counties unrepre
sented in the Independent and Demo
cratic Conventions, that tells the story
of how the Ilepublican party stands.
The excuse is their men are too poor
to come, but when a man's heart is in
a matter we never saw him too poor to
attend a convention.
If the Omaha Utnd l thinks Gov.
Furnas was "slaughtered" because he
received no votes in the last State Con
vention it is greatly mistaken. It was
well known that the Governor had
positively refused t ) let his name be
used in that collection. This and this
only accounts for his not receiving any
votes there.

Lincoln, Skit. fth. PTI.
As tlovonior of the State. t:o jiower is i:i me
Tested to provide for the relief of those among
our cilicn w ho haxe lost tiieir crops this sea
son. The money in-ihe Treasury cannot 1 e ap
plied to the putpo-c. however urgent the need.
JStit 1 h nv taken a deep interest in the matter,
and have ndeavoied to learn all the facts. It
is a subject for grat ilude l hat. now ii hstanding
the unfavorable c.gricu'i urul year, the State, as
a whole, has reaH'd a fair harvest. Though our
orn crop Ills been greatly damaged by grass
hoppers, and also the drouth, which has ;.!U"'t
ed the whole country, we have saved our w heat.
ii. ! generally, other crops ; :.ml there is noth
ing in t lie event of the year to retard the pro
gress of the Stale.
Cat the p '.Mirer immigrants push west. They
scale on t i;e frontier ; and, by the necessities
f the case, several years must elapse before
t hey can cease their dependence uimiii cor i as
the staple crop. This ear's visitation, there
lo.e. falls i'ii ihe fiouticr count if s with particu
lar force. Numbers of our citizens there resi
itb nt. in losing the bulk of their corn, lose their
v ear's labor ; and Lliey have not the means to
maintain themselves and their families during
tin-coming winter without outside he:p. They
inns; le aided, or they must piit the country.
Older these circumstances it is the duty, and
I eelieve the tlesiie, id the people of the older
;,n.l richre,' portions of the State, to contribute
lroiu their abundance towards supplying the
Mrants of the pioneers on the frontier. This
duty is pressing, for the need is now piesent and
M vi vo. andliy private benevolence it can most
)T iniptiy lie met. I therefore invite all the cit
izens 'of 'Nebraska, who may bs so disposed, to
liive liberally to tneir suitering fellow citizens
on tl'.e wC'stiYii border. Money, food anil cloth
ing, and seed for next year's crops, will be need
ed ; aivti nothing but" prompt help will place
Uio.se. who v-ill otherwise be obliged to leave
their homesteads and tiie Slate, above absolute
want, and enable them to stay hi their farms.
In older that all who give may feel assured of
the proper mid wise application of whatever is
donaUii, I -hereby ask the follwing well-known
citizens of the State to act as a t.eneral Com
liiittee for the receipt au.l distribution of all
coiitiii iitions, i;atl reijiiestthm to meet at Lin

At Lincoln Dr. Livingston said he
sowed some seed two years ago. It
must have been destroyed by drouth
and grasshoppers, in the "Western
Counties at any rate, judging by the
way they rushed up to the Ilepublican
Convention. The only place his seed
seems to have sprouted is in .Saunders
County, producing .a plentiful crop of
confusion.
The Democrats in this County
have taken very good care to place
their convention so late that they can
pick and juggle and trade for eandida
dates; or pat up any set of men that
will serve tlu-ir en Is, without a chance
for any body to show up their true
character before election. The 2'.Uh
just Vi days to think on it, even
if every 0:13 could know
immediately who they nominate,
and you can take what we
give you or none.
Doctor Livingston must have felt in
funny company at his independent con
vention in Lincoln the other day.
Only a few years ago he wanted to
tight a dtul with one of them, and has
been at lifelong variance with the
present principles and feelings of
many more of them. And then,
that vote for Governor, Doctor,
why old Cass alone, would have
done "a heap" better than that for you
any time the past two years, if you had
stayed in the Ilepublican part, and
borne your luck like a little man.
A funny thing happened at Lincoln
the other day at the Democratic Con
vention. Prof. Miller (Ashland)
thought he would drop in and see what
the Denis, were doing. Dilley Edger
ton of our town happened in about the
same time and dropped down on the
same seat with the Professor. They
soon became very much inter rested
talking temperance &c, of course
Dilly's face got very red, you know, as
he was very much in earnest. "When
they had gone out several delegates
inquired if that red-faced man was
Prof. Millers, brother.
Query "Who's the joke on?
OPE.MMJ OF THE CAMPAIGN'.
During our short Campaigns of late
the good old fashion of stump speaking
has almost died out. The Ilepublican
Central Committee are bound we shall
have some fun for our money though
and among the other arrangements Mi:.
Paul Vaxif.iivookt, now of Oma
ha.will open the Campaign at Kearney
Junction, on the 21st., filling nu
merous other engagements and speak
ing at Plattsmouth on
"Wkdnksday, Sept. 23
Mr. Vandervoort is one of the most
eloquent and earnest speakers in' the
west, he is an old hand at the business
and we are sure our folks will give him
a rousing welcome. Ample arrange-
i meats will lie made by tho County
Com. for the accommodation of all de
sirous to hear a good speaker on the
issues "f the day.
.MLLliMJ AT THE COUKT HOUSE
On Friuiiy evening for the purpose
of organizing a permanent aid Society
for suffering settlers West.- , '
HE VOLI TIOM X TH E SOUTH.
At hist the war of races h:u culmi
nated in Louisiana. The Lieut. Gov
ernor one D. D. I'enn, assumes com
plete control, drives Kellogg to the
Custom House and now proclaims him
self acting Governor. He congratu
late Gen. Grant and seems to think
that the Federal Government can rec
ogiiizesueh high handed outrages such
destruction of properly and loss of
lift--. .
If Gen Grant does not order enough
17. S. troops to Louisiana to protect all
persons white and black and insist on
the forms of law being obeyed, we
shall think the Ceasar has all died out
of him tin I all other attributes of cour
age, patriotism and ambition.
The relief committee appointed to
collect aid for western settlers, did
very well and we are prowl of our peo
ple and their generosity. "We do not
propose that our settlers shall go back
east begging and cursing the country
for want of help from home. When wc
saw the lists, Gon Cunningham had
1000 lbs Hour, 50 lbs Daeon and Slo,.0
in cash, 1. U. Murphy had 8 "2 7 in mon
ey; COO lbs of Hour and Q2 worth of
Bacon (mostly from Mr. Dovey) and
Henry Iloeck had on his list )?37 in
money, 22h) lbs of Hour, $10 in grocer
ies and !?t in corn besides some powder
and shot. We are told the lists are
still growing, a full report will be made
next week.
CALLING THE INDEPENDENT CONVENTION.
i'LKSONALS.
When the immense, 3fass meeting of
political independents met at the Court
House, they decided to hold their coun
ty nominating convention at Weeping
Water, on the 24th in;;t. Plain, square,
in the presence of such delegates as
they had, and when a certain person
suggested that they wait until after
the Ilepublican Convention on the2Uth,
Mr. L. G. Todd squarely said "no." He
was independent, and proposed to put
up good men, and vote for them regard
less of Ilepublican or Democratic nom
inations. And now comes in one Mac
Donagh, and announces in a circular
that iiK,on consultation with a few farm
ers d&-ltles-( tohold a convention for
independentf?) folks, on the 28th, in
stead of the 24t!i, (two days after the
regular Ilepublican convention.)
'Faith" and this is Independence; how
do you like it farmers delegates? you
gentlemen who. decided on the 24th as
jour day. He, (McD.) consults a few
farmers, say a doc tor and groceryman
or two, and you hit it better. Hah!
What juggling; how would the great
Ilepublican part' look appointing and
fixing conventions at other times than
its regular authorized agents designat
ed? And still they are the folks who
are goir.g to help the people; give them
more rights, &e. Selah!
S. A. Taylor, the Insurance man,
slept out doors and left the door open
thus catching a huge cold. He has
ne to Qmaha for a season to recuper
ate. Our old Washington County friend
Hon. Flam Clark was down at the
State Convention making things red
hot, as usual.
We are glad to see that Mr. Thrall
has re-leased tho Grand Central Hotel
at Omaha for Five years, and a better
Landlord couldn't be found.
James W. Jerger,one of the Herald's
friends, made us glad by hiaj presence
last week.
Four Freight cars on the Ii. & M.
Transfer were dumped in the Iliver by
a inissplaced switch last week.
D. C. Fleming of the new firm of
Fleming & Race, Weeping Water, goes
Fast this week to purchase stock for
the fall trade. Mr. Fleming has be
come one of our best known Merch
ants and we know he will bring on.a
good stock of goods.
Doc. liutler, of Weeping Water, lie
that was lately taken with a Paine. on

he reports every thing lovely and no
more tape-worm any where around

L;ust week the Hfkald had the
pleasure of an introduction to Mr.
Thompson liissell, of Saunders County
and candidate for Treasurer on the
People's Independent ticket. He is
said to be a good man and neighbor and
stock grower, and wejpresuine he is, but
that don't 'help his being totally at sea
on politics and finance.
John W. Dorrington, a brother of
Fred Dorrington and a former resident
of this place has just returned on a
visit to his old home in llichardson
County after a four years" residence in
the Territory of Arizona. Mr. D. is
Clerk of the U. S. Court there and has
been one of the successful young men
who Lave "gone west" from here.

OUR COUNTY FA lit.
The Eighth annual Fair of Cass
County Commenced on Tuesday. The
previous wet weather and the slow
maturity of fruit caused somewhat
less of a display than Cass County
usually turns out. The grounds were
well attended on Wednesday however.
The great feature of the day of course
was the speech of
g o v i : it no ii. rntXA s,
delivered in the afternoon. It was
an able intelligent talk; on Agricul
tural matters, we give a synopsis
of the main points: he traced the hist
ory of Agriculture in this State from
the time when not an aero was in cul
tivation, until in lS7:i the crops of
Nebraska in round numbers were
Million bushels of wheat. 5 Millions of
corn, .500,00:) of oats, 130,001) rye, 300,000
barley. He dwelt much on the fact of
our loss from shipping raw material,
stating that 12 cars are required to
transport the raw material, while one
car brings back the results in a con
densed and manufactured form.
He insisted that the producer and
consumer should be brought closer to
gether. Thought we raised to much
corn, and that we must put the corn
into beef and hogs.
Thought Manufactories were the
principal remedy for low prices, and
the ills the farmer complains of, to
gether with diversity of products.
More reliance upon natures transpor
tation line, the great Itivcrs of the
West would produce more wonderful
and stupenduous results. One mill
per. ton per. mile and 2Z cts. is
about the difference in freights by
wttter and by rail. Said one manufac
tory employing 100 hands will support
500 additional people, 100 families dis
bursing 6250 annually aggregate $25,
000 a year, &c.
Thought we ought to grow more wood
and also do more in the dairy business.
Xew York has 250,000 cows sending
out SO Million lbs. of cheese each year;
Ohio in about the same proportion,
Wisconsin is solving the transporta
tion question this way. Green County
in '73 sent out 1,930,000 lbs. of cheese.
We can and ought to do the same, we
have as good climate, and grass and
w;iter in abundance.
Sugar Beets can be grown to great ad
vantage, and by analysis will yield over
12 per cent, of sugar. In France and
Germany they only get 14 per cent,
but our soil will raise more beets to
the acre. Azro Smith raised 40 tons to
the acre, and it is worth .54.30 per ton.
The average yield is 20 tons. A few
beet manufactories would leave more
clear money in the State than all the
surplus raw corn raised. Also advised
flax culture, explained the relations of
labor and capital, and told us farming

Nkw Orlkans, September 11.
In response to a call for a mass meet
ing on Canal street this morning, to
protest against the seizure of arms be
longing to private citizens, a large
number collected. Men began to as
semble about ten o'clock, and by eleven,
the broad sidewalks of the great
through fare were tilled for several
squares. No disturbance of any kind
has occurred. Two companies of IT. S.
troops arrived this morning, en route
from Holly Springs, Miss., for this city.
The meeting adopted a resolution re
questing the immediate abdication of
Governor Kellogg, and a committee
consisting of B. II. Marr, chairman;
Jules Tuyes, S. E. Chapin, Samuel Bell
and J. M. Seixas, were appointed to
wait on the Governor, and the meet
ing is awaiting the report of the com
mittee. An extra of the Bulletin's at 4 p. m.
contains proclamation to the People of
Louisiana signed by I). B. I'enn, Lieut.
Governor in the absence of Governor
McEvay, calling upon the militia of
the State, embracing all persons be
tween the ages of 18 and 40 years. with
out regard to color, or previous condit
ion, to arm and assemble under their
respective ofl'iecrs for the purpose of
driving the usurpers from power.
At 3 p, m., armed men were station
ed at the intersections of all the streets
on the south side of Canal street, from
the river to Claiborne street. About
4 p. in., a body of Metropolitans, about
400, with cavalry and artillery, appear
ed at the head of Canal street, and
took position, Gen Longstrect com
manding, accompanied by orderly.
They then rode up and down Canal
street, ordering the armed citizens to
disperse. Some desultory firing soon
after occurred along Canal street, and
some few casualties are reported on
both sides. The Metropolitans are re
ported to have broken at the lirst fire.
There is one company of U. S. troops
here, but they remain at the custom
house, spectators.
There was quite- a large fight at the
river end of canal street about 4 o'clock
the number of killed is estimated
to be as high as 50, and many wounded.
Capt. J. M. West, a printer, and well
known newspaper corresdondent and
F. A. Tulledano, were killed on the cit
izen's si-le.
LATER.
Nr:w Orleans, La Sept. 15.
At 3 p. m., in response to a notice
signed by the com. of the Canal street
meeting, a large number of unarmed
citizens assembled on Sr. Charles street
and, preceded by a band of music, es
corted Lieutenant Governor I'enn from
his resilience to the State House, where
he took posession of the executive de
partment, which was unoccupied.
Governor Kellogg and Marshal Packard
are in the Custom House, which is
guarded by four companies of United
States troops under the command of
Gen. Brooks. Gov. Kellogg has made
a requisition upon the President for
troops under the constitutional pro
vision guaranteeing safety to State
governments.
A dispatch has been sent to Presi
dent Grant, requesting him to recog
nize the McEnery and Peun goverment
which is in quiet and peaceable posses
sion of the city and State.
Washington; Sept. 13.
The President hits just issued the
following proclamation :
Now, therefore, I, V. S. Grant, Presi
dent of the United States,
do hereby make proclamation
and command said turbulent
and disorderly persons to disperse
and retire peaceably to their respec
tive abodes, within live days from this
date, and herafter to submit them
selves to the laws and constituted au
thorities of said State. I invoke the
aid and co-operation of all good citi
zens therof to uphold the law and pre
serve the public peace.
