From Tluiri day's Extra
We learn by this morning's report
that Gen. Cuter and nearly all his
command have been massacred by the
Indians. The report says 323 men. IT
Commissioned Ollieers, den. Custer
and brothers.
This is an outrage on the Avestprn
people; Ave have stood this thing long
enough. Gen. Grant is a soldier; he
knows the duty and the responsibility
of Army Oiiicers ; avc say it is sheer
nonsense to order men into a liyht at
such odds.
Every sensible man.posled in Indian
affairs, knows that the Sioux, and
other Indians who can l e coaxed into
tic League, can number from 3,000, to
! o,0' 0 warriots.
To or !' r a few hundred American
troops to face this multitude is sheer
murder.
We object, Ave refuse, our men are
brave, our soldiers are brave, but at
sue'u o-.lds, it is nonsense to order

The government should either order
all Avhites out of that country; stop
railroads from taking people in, or else
send enough troops there to protect
white citizens and innocent settlers.
We want one thing or the other.
The Government must declare that no
citizen of the United States (with a
Avhite skin) can go into the Indian
country, and no railroad can carry
them thither, and no stage route sell
tickets to points Avithin the so called
"Indian hinds;" or lse the Govern

all pay taxes to support, must protect
such settlers, emigrants, pioneers, gold
seekers, or inhabitants, as the induce

hope and prospects of speculators,

OiiC or the other of these demands,

FEATURES OF THE PARADE.
Among the features of the parade

The members of the Japanese cen

SOUTH PLATTE.
Without making invidious compar
isons, we believe it to be the generally
received opinion of tho people of this
state that the portion of Nebraska
known as "South Platte", owing to
earlier and more numerous settlements,
cultivates more acres than any section
of similar size in the sUte, and neces
sarily produces more; but all the sur
plus products of this vast region are
forced into eastern markets, and utter
ly debarred from the .best market in
the Avest by the refusal of the Union
Pacific R. R. Co. to receive it in the
Cars of any other Railroad Co., unless
it pays the same rates which that Co.
charges at Omaha. This intolerable
discrimination against the products
and prosperity of one half the inhabi
tants f our stato is, in our opinion, a
matter of too great importance to bo
allowed to rest any longer. . We appea
to every newspaper in the region men
tioned to take up this subject, and bat
tle for the rights and best interests of
the people from whom they derive,
their support, and. if necessary force
the lighting into every avenue that will
lead to a removal of the incubus upon
the South Platte communities. Let
the people awaken to a full realization
of the injustice that is done them, and
then let their suffrages go only to such
as Avill rigorously aid in removing the
grip that is at tho throat of the South
Platte interests.
TUE TICKETS.
TWO VIET? S OF THE CANDIDATES.
TilJen and Hendricks.
their vieaa.
The St. Louis convention Thursday,
completed its good work by nominat
ing Gov. Hendricks for vice-president.
Tiie banner of Tilden and Hendricks
is nailed to the Democratic mast-head,
and under it the Democracy and all
friends of good government, Avhoso
love of country has not been chilled by
party prejudice, will rally for the great
light for reform. As gubernatorial
candidates, each of the nominees car
ried his State against great odds. Nei
ther of the nominees is a great or a
small unknown. Each has made a
capital governor, and has a record of
public services that gives every assur
ance of efficiency and a desire to im
prove the character of the public ser
vice. One is from the East, the other
is from the West, and the North and
the South can cordially unite on both.
There is no spot or blemish on the per
sonal reputation of either, and togeth
er they represent the embodiment of
that effort of the country toward ad
ministrative reform which showed it
self in the Cincinnati convention only
to be ignominiously ejected, but which,
from the first step to the last, Avas tho
controlling influence of the coiiA ention
at St. Louis. The platform on which
these nominations are presented is in
full accord Avith the lofty character of
the candidates. It is outspoken and
honest ; it means what it says and
says Avhat it means, and it full- re
sponds to the cry that conies up from
every part of the land for a return to
tho better and purer days of the repub
lic. The ticket must Avin. There is a
moral force in resolute earnestness
that can not be overcome by ordinary
obstacles, and nothing but ordinary ob
stacles now stand in the way of Tilden,
Hendricks and Reform. Louisville

II AYES & WHEELER.
R. B. Hayes, one of the purest men
in the country has been nominated as
the standard-bearer of the Republican
party. A man of ripe years, a scholar,
and a gentleman. A member of Con
gress, Governor of the State he is
nominated from, and having thrice
beaten the Democracy in said State,
we thinkjhc is the true standard bearer
of honest, earnest reform. A reform
that means something, that has the
will, and poAver, to do something tang
ible in the way of reform. No suspi
cious railroad suits hangover the head
of Rutherford B. Hayes. No millions
of ill-gotten gains, hardly to be ac
counted for by honest dealing, can be
charged against his character.
As to ability. the man who could
gain a General's position in the war,
and a Senator's and Governor's in time
of peace, has all the ability needed to
(ill the higher position of President,
Avhen backed by a soul of honor, a
character above reproach.
Wm. A. Wheeler, the author of tho
Louisiana Compromise, a member of
Congress at the time, of his nomina
tion, and considered by his comrades
there and his friends at home as one
of the best and brightest intellects in
the party.
No stain of dishonor attaches to his
fame, and no second rate power
either of brains or character are his.
With such a ticket Ave are bound to
win. Hayes and Wheeler are as sure to
be the next President ami Yice-Presi-dent,
as the election day in November
is to come around. Ex.
