"Wlio says the republican party is
not looking after the wants and the
righU of the poor man. The Bland
Silver bill passed the House on Monday
and the Antl-tlesumption bill was ta
ken from its dead lock and put upon
its passage by the aid of republican
tncrattfrs.
From the best computation to be
made at going to press Mr! Patterson,
tlemocrat, has 520. majority; Mr. Tutt,
democrat, 304; Ilyers, republican, 56;
Mr. Wise 63; Mr. Sullivan 80 to 100;
Mr. Crawford 50 to CO. It should be
stated that the democratic vote is most
ly in, while the precincts to be heard
from may fairly be expected to increase
the republican majorities.
Oliver Perrt Morton, U. S. Sen

November 1st, and was burried last
Monday. A full acouut of the death
and funeral services will be found in

times, is one of the last of the old lead

for which we are duly and truly thank

for rainy Sundays and like occasions,

Six months ago a party of young
men left Burlington for the Black Hills.
From time to tim3 they have proudly
written back that they were doing
well. But last week one of them wrote
to his father that ho would be home
on Wednesday evening, and added,
"Meet me on Agency road, at dark, just
out of town, and bring a blanket or a

Our gcod rooster being on a spree up
at Louisville, in pursuance of our firm
determination to make this a purely
agricultural paper, and nothing else,
we hoist a sheep at the head of our
Election column. AVe want to do
something to indicate there has been
an election, just a3 the fellows did
when they took up a collection totnake
it-seem like a prayer meeting! you re-
v--rr.ejrj3er.
TE vete in the county has been
light, you may call IT off year, yon may
call it general apathy, or what you like,
the Herald calls it criminal negli-,
gence of duty, and by the men who are
ordinarily called the best men we have;
the pious men, the christian men, the
business men of the community. The
scenes around the polls at their close,
on Tuesday, were a disgrace to any
community calling itself civilized,
christian, moral. Two or three drunk
en men brawling and cavorting around,
and others hauling and pulling half in
ebriated men to and from the polling
place. We don't know how these men
voted, we don't care, for this argument,
but we are sick of the cant and the
toin-foolery that keeps the so-called re
ligious citizen, the extra good moral
man away from the polls.
Whatever may be the reasons why
the Republicans of Cass County did
not choose to vote for J. W. Johnson
in this election, the Herald will al
ways feel more kindly towards Mr.
Johnson, and have a higher opinion of
him as a man, than heretofore; simply
and plainly because we have suen the
true, honest and faithful side of the
man tamed towards us. Mr. Johnson,
like many men of strong convictions
and earnest purpose, is not an easy man
to get acquainted with, he is not "hail
fellow well met with everyone, and
the Herald confesses that in all the
five years we have lived here we never
knew Mr. Johnson. Perhaps it was
our fault, perhaps it was his. We are
not of the kind of men who slobber and
gush round about what we have done
and whom we like or dislike, and it is
the misfortune of those in political
life that they almost always turn their
worst side outward, and often to the
very men who would like to help them,
and who are compelled by necessity to
work with them. Be that as it may,
wjs have seen enough of Joe Johnson
during this short contest to make our
heart warm towards him, to place him
forever higher in our estimation as a
man, a citizen, and a friend. Perhaps
it is the best thing that could happen
to him that he has not been elected.
Really honest and efficient men do not
seem to be needed just now in public
affairs.
We loaned our best Roojjter to the
Chronicle, you see! This one has his
spurs left though, and we'll put a head
on him after a while, and when his tail
grows out again, won't he crow!
This is purely an agricultural paper,
you understand! My stars what a rich
and handsome country Nebraska is?
What vegetables, Oh! Beats, Turn-ups,
Cabbage-heads, and Letus(alone), till
3'ou can't rest. The soil is rich and
productive, the mineral wealth is sunk
deep in the earth, and its fluids are the
most seductive known!
We have received from Senator
Saunders, the report of the Monetary
Committe who were appointed in "76
to inquire into the change which has
taken place in the relative value of
silver and gold, the causes thereof, the
effect upon trade, and the productive
interests of the county. Also, into the
policy of the restoration of the double
standard in this country, the legal re
lation between the gold and silver coin
and the exact standing and relation to
the business affairs of the country of
Legal Tender notes. Mr. Jones, of Ne
vada, was chairman, and the report is
supposed to be exhaustive. When we
have to some extent digested the volu
minous matter offered, we shall try and
sum up the conclusions of the com
mittee. Scenes and Incidents Attending the Fu
- ncral Ceremonies of Senator
Morton.
Indianapolis, Ind., Xov. 5. Rain
fell from daylight to noon. From noon
to dark it grew colder with considera
ble wind. The temperature had fallen
12 degrees up to sundown. From the
opening of the court hou doors this
morning until half past ten an unin
terrupted throng moved through, view
ing the honored remains. At that hour
the pall bearers took a last look when
the casket was taken to the hearse and
thence to the residence, escorted by the
military. The first room at the left
from the hall was gracefully draped
with flags and mourning emblems. In
front of the mirror, between the front
windows of this apartment, stood a
magnificent spray of white flowers. In
the centre of the room fronting the
entrance stood a floral pillow with a
ground of white and a secondary pur
ple border bearing upon the centre in
violets the word "Rest." Immediately
back of this beneath the mantel was a
floral medallion having inserted at its
top a sheaf of full ripe wheat. This
was bordered with white roses, having
opposite the sheaf and on the bottom
of the circle as it lay the letter "M" in
blue flowers, the whole bordered with
a wreath of smilax. In the second
room on the right, standing on the pi
ano, stood a floral harp bearing the
motto "Our Friend," and the initials
"O. P. M-," flanked on the right and
left by two broken floral shafts and in
the rear by a portion of the decorations
used at the court house. In this room
was also placed a loral pillow bearing
the legend "Indiana's Pride," from
Judge Martindale. In the third room
stood an easy chair, more eloquent in
it's vacancy than all the floral tributes;
4
Hi
mourning colors. In this room was al
so located a shaft of laurel and ivy
leaves, surmounted by a white dove,
from whose beak suspended a wreath
of smilax and the motto. "A slight tes
timonial of the gratitude we bear to
one who was the unswerving advocate
of woman suffrage, given, by Mrs.
Francis Minor and Phoebe Cozens of
St. Louis. In this room was also de
posited a floral pillow, composed prin
cipally of tuberoses, in the center of
which appeared the motto, "A nation
mourns." The casket was deposited in
the fourth or east room, against the
mantel of which rested an anchor of
tuberoses and carnations, with the mot
to "Rest" in purple immortelles from
president and Mrs. Hayes, brought by
Mr. Burchard Hayes. This was flank
ed on one side by a shield of white ros
es bearing in -the centre the initials "O.
P. M" in purple immortelles, and on
the other by an anchor from colored
citizens of Philadelphia. As soon" as
practicable after depositing of the re
mains for the last time in the room so
familiar to him in life, the house was
cleared and the family left for a brief
hour with their dead and their grief.
Upon opening of the doors the t'me
was occupied prior to the removal of
the remains to the hearse by the com
nrttees from the cabinet, senate and
house of representatives, distinguished
guests and letter carriers, in taking a
last look, after which the funeral cor
tege was formed according to pro
gramme. From the Globe-Democrat, St. Lonis.
We recived a few days since, from
an army officer, an advertisement of
an important sale of Government goods
to be inserted in the Globe-Democrat
six times, at rates established by an old
statute. On figuring the matter up, it
appeared that what the officer was au
thorized to pay for six insertions was
about what the Globe-Lemocrat would
charge for one insertion; hence the ad
vertisement wa3 returned. We cannot
allow the Government to occupy space
in our columns at lower rates than we
charge to private individuals. If the
Government can not afford to pay this
price, it must seek some other medium
for its advertising. The rates estab
lished by statute som3 twenty-five
years ago may have been liberal and
fair enough for that period, when it
cost yery little to print a newspaper,
and when no daily newspaper in the
West had one-tenth of the present cir
culation of the Globe-Democrat. Tha
Government, by our refusal to accept
the advertisement to which we refer,
must have lost a hunired times
what we would have charged for it.
The sale was of consequence, and it
was important to get together as many
bidders as possible. The great circula
tion of theGloba-D3inocrat throughout
the entire West would have a?com
plished this object, and would have
made competition, which without pub
licity there can not be. In the matter
of advertising we prop.).3 to da.il with
the Government on a businesi b.wis.
We do not seek its patronage, or as a
reward for party services. Our adver
tising columns are at the service of the
Government just as they are a', the ser
vice of the dry goo Is dealer or a real
estate agent, and on tin sv.nti terms.
ILCongress chooses to piss a law al
lowing reasonable compensation for
such service, we shall be happy to re
ceive the favors of Uncle Sam, but
while the law stands as at present we
shall have to refer that amiable indi
vidual to jourua's of smiller circula
tion and less expensive inake-up.
