If the bill for a geological survey
should pass we hope that a thorough
examination will be made for coal on
t:ie lands of Jos. Shera, at ltock Bluffs,
as Mr. Shera has spent over $2,003 of
his own money in the attempt to settle
th? fact whether there is coal on the
4ibSouri or not, and it would seem but
fair that he should receive some recota
f.iise. The best and cheapest plan yet tried
to induce immigration is to allow a
Siiiall fund to be distributed among the
newspapers of the Svate, to allow them
funds to mail papers and answer ques
tions. We do not say this becauso we
happen to edit a newspaper just now,
i:ut because it is the fact. It has been
triad in other States, and we know it
has done good here.
The bill about Halls is of no use un
less it provides for more than one exit,
T-s well as that all doors shall open out
side. We know of plenty of halls with
it id?, good staircases and doors open
ing outside that are yet unsafe because
there is but one mode of egress, and
should a fire from below destroy that
cue etnirway suddenly, as might often
happen, -there would be no earthly
mode of escape for the poor inmates.
Jt is not true, as charged, that Ne
braska did not make a decent showing
ui the Ceiitennial. hc did better
than, many elder Slates. We have ex
plained before how the first imprcs
sio:n were made that tlrt went abroad.
Nebraska wa3 late in getting anything
there. We touk action late. The first
chcioe of managers was not happy,
but before tho Centennial closed and
doling the time of the greatest num
ber of visitors we had a very fair and
i: ritoriou3 display of grains, fruits,
giruses and other productions.
A bill bas been introduced to carry
ut the provision.? of the Constitution
in regard to the selection of a United
Slates Senator by the people. We hope
every member from Cass will help
urgo the passage of this bill and every
other person over whom the opinion
of this paper may have any influence
speak a oort word for its passage. As
.;i:l elpvhera v? never want to s ;-:
-ther election of Senator by the
ir.ore will of tho Legislature. We
; uld . think members themselves
v.ijwltl desire to be relieved of the bul'-
i.-si'jg ar.-l the bird feelings engender-
! d iri'ig such a bout, to say nothing
c-Mhc loss of lime, expense, and of tea
jrp-:tution. Let the people pYmt out
tl.-ar!y who they wan", and the Legis
l.ttt re. will h:ivo their duty before
th'-rn. It will not be lorg after the
Presidential" mat'er is settled before
fVrlgress vjii place a bona ride amend
ment to the Constitution of the U. S.

bodying this principle and we think
that two-thirds of the States would

COLLECTION LA ITS.
Our collection laws need attending
to, and we hope they will be so amend
ed that money can be loaned with safe
ty in this State and at reasonable rates
of inteiest. We are satisfied that bet
ter collection laws would help us great
ly and prevent sharps from loaning
money to poor farmers at exorbitant
rates.
THE ILLINOIS SENATORIAL
CON
TEST.
After the "ith ballot Gen. Logan
peremptorily declined to permit the
further U3e of his name. The Hon.
Charles B. Lawrence was unanimously
nominated by the Republican caucus
for U. S. Senator and still they ballot
away.
We have received the first copy of
the Educational Weekly, published in
Chicago. It is a consolidation of edu
cational papers of Wisconsin, Michi
gan, Illinois, Nebraska, Kentucky and
Indiana, comprising seven, one of
which is the Ntbraslia Teacher, form
erly published at Beatrice, Prof. C. P.
Palmer, editor. Each publication has
a portion assigned to it, which it is to
fill, and altogether they make a most ex
cellent periodical. Prof. Palmer still
edits the Nebraska portion. We rec
ommend it to those of our readers de
siring a paper of that kind.
As our dispatches showed last week,
Gov. Alvin Saunders was elected U. S.
Senator from Nebraska, to serve six
years from the 4th of next Marojj, and
we believe the people are better satis
fied than they have been in some time
with the selection. While the Herald
felt, personally, very friendly to Mr.
Hitchcock, and has always deprecated
the abuse heaped upon his head, believ
it unjust and unmerited in great mea
sure, yet we feel satisfied that the
breach had grown so wide between the
two wings of the party, that the re
election of our present Senator would
have burst the party up and turned the
State over to the Democrats or Inde
pendents. Gov. Saunders, by his known
character, the belief that he will act
fairly towards both great railroads and
the people, giving each their due, and
the fact that he has the confidence of
all parties can do much, in fact all, to
ward healing the wounds of party
strife. We shall also have a united
and strong working delegation in Con
gress. Gov. Saunders has been in public life
more or less for many yeare. He wa3
a member of the Constitutional Con
vention of Iowa, that formed the Con
stitution under which Iowa became a
State, he was also a member of the Iijwa
Legislature, and in 'CI was appointed
by President Lincoln, Territorial Gov
ernor of Nebraska, which position he
held until we became a State. His
years, his experience in public affairs,
and his standing with our paoplemake
his selection as Senator one of the most
suitable that could have been made.
For once we have a Senator elected
by a United Republican vote. Gov.
Saunders received the entire Republi
can vote of the Legislature, 83; and
more wondrous still, we beheld the
spectacle of 23 democrats voting solid
for an upright democrat, Jadge Savage.
We have faith in everything once more.
We fear not the hopper. We care not
for hard times, poverty cannot over
whelm us. Nebraska is free, pure,
wholesome once more. No charge of
corruption, no stain of bribery, no
chance for a sell out in this election.
What will some newspapers do now
for news and Hying?
The legislature met again on Tues
day after a short adjournment. Hav
ing disposed of the Senator business
they can now turn their attention to
law-making. They have biil3 enough
to consider, it would seem.

mouth, and Jirownvilie, Nebraska,
and Sioux City ami Council JUliili's,

That the Secretary of War be, and

Sioux City and Couucil UlalL;, Iowa;
and the Bum of one hundred and twenty-fire
thousand dollars is hereby ap
propriated foruch purposes.
Sleighing is nearly over.
THE COMPROMISE.
The bill providing for a new man
ner of counting the electoral vote, a
synopsis of which we give elsewhere, is
creating great excitement all over the
country. Senators Sherman and Mor
ton have both made strong speeches
against its adoption. It is looked up
on with suspicion by many of the lead
ing Republican papers, and is almost
universally dubbed "a compromise."
The best thinkers deem it unconstitu
tional. . It seems to us that there is but one
plain duty for the government and the
people, and that li for the President of
the Senate to announce the vote as he
counts it, and declare one party or the
other elected. Whichever man is de
feated should have and undoubtedly
has a remedy in the Supreme Court,
and there it should be tried. They have
a right to pronounce and define what
is law, and see tt at the true meaning
and intent of the constitution is car
ried out, but not to improvise laws for
a special occasion. It will depend
largely on public sentiment whether
the bill passes cr not.

torial Assosiation because some one

THE
ANTHRACITE COAL COMPANY
OF BUFFALO, N. Y.
We received from Mr. Geo. Dakin, of
Buffalo, the other day, an account of
the Anthracite Coal Company of that
place. As our people are beginning to
use a great deal of hard coal, perhaps
a few statements of the trade would
not be amiss.
About eighteen years ago the Dela
ware. Lackawana & Western Railroad
Company, J. Langdon, and the Pittson
& Eimira Coal Company united in
forming the Anthracite Coal Associa
tion, and appointed Mr. Geo. Dakin as
their repress ntative.
Eighteen years ago the shipments of
anthracite coal to the association's rep
resentative here aggregated about ten
thousand tons. Perhaps one-half of
that amount was sent to Chicago.
There was no established anthracite
coal trade in that city at that time, and
and the Association b?gan its business
there by sending canvassers from house
to house and store to store, seeking
rders.
The central office of the Association
is at No. 221 Main street. At the foot
of Genesee street there is another office
and yard, and on Exchange street, be
yond the Erie Railway, is the most ex
tensive as well as most complete and
expensive coal yard in the country. It
includes an entire block, and, with the
improvements, has cost the Associa
tion about seventy-live" thousand dol
lars. At the Erie Basin the " Associa
tion owns extensive decks, and'at the
foot of Genesee street it has created
for itself dock facilities at an outlay
of a quarter of a million of dollars.
At the foot of Ohio street are other
large docks, the building of which was
a great expense, calling for the invest
ment of not less than three hundred
thousand dollars, and from these sim
ple statements of fact the people may
form something of an idea of tho re
sources of the Anthracite Coal Asso
ciation, and of the immense Minn of
money it has invested in Buffalo.
In Chicago Mr. Robert Law is the
agent, and lie ships to points as far
west as the Rocky Mountains.
Mr. Dakin has remained connected
with the association ever since i.s for
mation, and now lias charge of the re
tail and shipping bu3ines3 in Buifalo.
THE PRESIDENTIAL C3UNT.
The Joint Committee, "on counting
the electoral votes has at hiit reported,
throwing all unnecessary verbiage
asid?, the reported bill proposes this;
On the 1st Thursday in February the
Senate and House ef Representatives
shall rnet and the President of the
Senate shall be the presiding officer.
Two tellers from each house shall be
appointed to whom the President of
the Senate shall hand all certificates as
oponad, taking the states in alphabeti
cal order. The tellers shall read the
votes of each state, and the President
of Senate announce said vote, asking
for objections if any are to be made,
and said objections must be in writing.
At tho close all objections and papers
are subjected' to an affirmative vote of
bcth houses, and if they do noj; acree,
a tribunal to decide what shall be
counted and what not shall be appoint
ed as follows:
Five members from the House elect
ed by a majority; five from the Senate;
four Justices of the Supreme Court
from the 1st, 3d. 8th and !)th districts,
who shall then by ballot elect a fifth
Justice, and to this commission all pa
pers and documents shall be sabmitWl,
and by their cleoiston Congress and tho
Nation shall abide.
Minute provisions about the time,
manner, nature axd limit of debates,
&c, are included, but ths above is lhe
substance of the proposed bill.
It meets with approval and disap
proval from tho press, about equally
divided. Senator Morton would not
sign t lie report, and Congress is very
much divided on the question of the
propriety of its passage.

THE GREAT B. & SI. R. R. CASE.
The B.t M. R.R. Co put in t heir de

swore that the letters purporting to bo
from Perkins and the endorsments T.
M. M. &?. were forgeries. We append
a portion of their affidavits. Judgo
Briggs and (Jov, Saunders also swore
that they had never received any mon

TIic Quickest. Surest, and
Cheapest Remedies.
Tiiysicians recommend, and Farriers declare
that no such remedies have ever before been in
use. Words are cheap, but th ? proprietor" of
these :;rtic!es w ill present a trial bottle to medi
cal men. gratis, and ill ruarant'e,,iiore rapid
and satisiactory results than Have ever beiore
been, obtained.
The Centaur Llalment.AVIilteW rapper
will cure UheuuiatNin, NeuraltrU. Lumbago.
MWatica. Caked Hretwts, Sore Nippies. Frosted
Feet, CliitblaiuS, Swellings, -prams, and any
ordinary
FLESH, BONE OR MUSCLE AILMF.M.
It will extract the ;oison of bites and stings,
and henl burns or scalds without a soar. Lock
jaw, Palsy, Weak ISack, Caked Breasts, Ear
ache, Tooth-ache. Itch and Cutaneous Erup
tions readily yield to its treatment.
Henry lliack, of Ada, Hardin Co., Ohio, says :.
"My wife has had Itheumat ism for five years.
no rest, no sleep could scarcely walk acroHS
the floor. She is now completely cured by the
use of Centaur Liniment. We ail feel thankful
to you. and recommend your wonderful medi
cine to a!l o;ir friends."
James Hard, of Zanesville. Ohio, says : '-Tho
Centaur Liniment cured my Neuralgia."
Alfred Tush, of Newai k. Writes : "Send me
one dozen bottles by express. The Liniment
has saved my leg. I want to distribute? it.
The sale of thin Liniment is increasing rapidly.
The Centaur Liniment, Yellow Wrapper
is for the tough skin, flesh and muscles of
HOKSE3, MULES AND ANIMALS.
We have never seen a case of Spavin. Sweeny,
Itinc-bone. Wind-sail, Scratches or I'oH-Evfl.
which this Liniment would not cure. It will
cure when anything can. It is folly to spend
f20. for a Farrier, when one dollar's worth of
Centaur Liniment will do better. The follow
ing is a sample of the testimony produced :
Jefferson, Mo.. Nov. 10, 1873.
"Snme time ago I was shipping horses to 6"t.
Louis. 1 got one badlv crippled in the car.
With.greai difficulty 1 got him to the stable.
The stable-keeper gave me a bottle of your Cen
taur Liuiment, which I used wUh such success
that in two days the Korse was active and near
ly well. 1 have been a veterinary surgeon for
thirty yearn, but your Liniment beats anything
I ever used. A. J. M'Cakty,
Veterinary Surgeon.
