Almost every city vnper has a picture of it at the head of the column. Is Xew York they have gained an rdciost clean Republican victory, and think it must be an off year; or else he "floating wote" did it. lion Ixgcrsoll is talked of for Min ister to Germany. The wise acre3 think he and old 13is would agree on relig ion or noiureligion rather. Scp't.

Sexatou Saunders is a member of three committees, in which we western people are largely interested, viz: In dian Affairs, Territories and Railroads. Congress at last takes up the Army BUI, one of the special things they were called together for. It looks prob able they will allow us a standard of 25,000. Saline County carried the Republi can ticket in tlic main, but Crete lost the County Seat. No great loss, eith er, as she escaped a 810,003 mortgage for county buildings. Can't some of those Red-Ribbon fel lows come around here, and wake us up a little. We are not entirely gone yet in Piaitsiuouth, and .there are lots of old seeds that need bracing up. The Supreme Court of Penns Ivania decided thai Gov. Hartianft and other state officials were not amenable to process to ompel iheir attendance as witnesses in the Pittsburg Riot i-a-se. Geo.

Orit new Club List rates for 1378 will be published next week; also Pre miums offered for Clubs, and extra Subscriptions to the Herald. We mean to make some grand offers and want yon .all to take hold and help. Mr. Doom writes us to say it was Salt Creek precinct and not Greenwood precinct that gave Chapman a major ity last year. Greenwood giving Liv ingston a majority as we all remember. The mistake grew out of the letter be ing dated at Greenwood, we suppose. It must be fun for three or four hun dred Republicans to vote the Demo cratic ticket. It shows their strength. The Republican party is the dominant party yet. I ( they don't choose to elect their friends they can pick out such of their opponents as they like best and elect them Glorious victory Happy party. "It's i light vote a!l over," so say the papers. The facts seem to be that while the preacher, the prayor, the good man stays home and tells the 'Lord what a wicked world this is, how the politicians lie and cheat and what a fraud free elections are, the bummer, the rowdy, the whisky man is working at the polls like a beaver, marching up his men, popping in the votes and in suring his side the victory. What is that about being as wise as serpents and as harmless as doves: Our good men are as harmless as doves (on election day.) The other fel lows wise as serpents. The Lord never helps those who do not help themselves. Pray less and vote more, if you want to be on the majority side. LETTER BOX. Rock Bluffs, Nov. 9th, 1877. Dear Herald: I see- that the young folks of Cass'county have ceas ed writing for the Herald, but, as this is rather a snowy day, 1 will try to write a short letter, hoping that there will be letters fr om ottier parts . of the county. 1 suppose a short sketch of Rock Blulf3 would he acceptable to the Herald, sol wi'.l try to write a little about thjs little town. Rock Bluffs is situated on the west bank of the Missouri 1 iver, about twenty miles above Nebraska City, and seven miles In-low Plattsmoulh. Rock Bluffs has about 200 inhabitants ;t has two stores, a post-oflice, two church buildings, a .school house, u blacksmith shop, a shoe shop, a mill, and a butcher shop. Rock Bluffs also has a -splendid base ball club, but base brill tinj?h:is passed, and dnow b illing ha? taken it3 ila?e. IIop- ins the young folks will waUi np and j - write fur the IIkk vr.ri, T vennin I . --Youis tin';', .'.('. ; Comniunle.iteil. GltEEVWOOD PllECIECT, CASS Co.. eb, Nov 12th, 1377. f Editor IIf.raed. In looking over j 3 011 last week's paper we had the pleas ure?) of reading the following words which were quoted from a correspon dent from Salt Creek: "This is the nreeinct that crave S:m Channian 16 majority last fall." Now wo would like tojsay a few words with regard to the author of this quotation. He went into the Cass County Republican con vention and asked for the nomination for County Clerk; failing in this the old story of tha Fox and the Grapes was pretty nearly re-enacted. The honorable gentleman, we have no doubt, thought hi wouM impress 011 the minds of the readers of the Herald the fact that he contributed largely to the par tial defeat of the Republican party, but there never was a greater mistake, indeed, we doubt if the gentleman can control his own vote. In conclusion we earnestly urge ou our Democratic friends to give this poor fellow some office. Do not allow this genius, tiiis occidental star to lose his lustre in the prime of his existence. Do please give him something, quick, before he can get back into the ranks which lie once pretended to revere. Yours truly, Xidas. The Herald did not know how this gentleman worked or voted. We gave the item as one of news, simply, showing what changes were going on in the county, presuming it was given to us as such, alone. Tiie ilERALD has never made a practice of harping over the results of an election, whether it has been one of defeat or victory to us. Telling what might have been done, who was to blame, &c, &c.,as many papers do. nev er helps the matter. We have always found that the reaon a man did not get elected was because he did not get votes enough, and that ends it. But there is one point in the late election where such glaring injustice has been done; such gross ignorance displayed, and in a way that so tends to vitiate public morals and degrades election day into a mere tournament for champion liars, we feel compelled to notice it. For the first time this week it readied our ears that current rumor at the polls in Plattsmoulh pre cinct, at W. W., and elsewhere, charg ing Mr. Johnson with signing a petition for the appointment of a delinquent tax collector, some even going so far as to say that he went to Lincoln and lobbied it through, leaving the impres sion that he did so in order to be ap pointed collector. It is a base unmitigated lie, made from whole cloth. There never was any petition of the kind sent. Joseph Johnson never signed any petition of any kind about it, and not only did not lobby for the bill, but was not at Lin coln during the session of '74 at which time this bill was passed. We know whereof we speak, having been at Lin coln ourself more or less of the time during the whole session. Without go ing into detail, we shall give ths LAW AND FACTS. In '73 the law (page 949, Stat. '7a) made it the duty of the Sheriff, on the order of the Treasurer, to levy and col lect delinquent taxes. Mr .Johnson was not the Sheriff under that law, and if he had been and performed his duly, any man who voted against him (or any other man) :or performing his sworn dutj-, should be disfranchis ed for three years. In '74 a law creating the oflice of de linquent tax collector was passed (page 99. laws 73). The first draft of the bill made it arbitrary on every count-, but it was finally left to the judgment of the County Commissioners in each county. The Commisioners in Cass, county deeming it inexpedient, never appointed any delinquent tix collect r uii'lerthit law. It was a bad law and was repealed Feb. 1S77, (page 69 laws of 1877.; . The bill did not originate from Cass county, and was not supported, especi ally from this county. It was a wes tern measure. Xo pactions were sent and Mr. Joh-ison never saw one, nor signed one, nor was he at Lincoln dur ing the passage or pending the passage of this bill. The taxes Mr. Johnson did collect in '74, or at any time, were made under the authority of the treasurer. J. C. Cummins, and he acting under a decis ion of the Supra me Court, which made it imperative to exhaust personal prop erty before im could sell va.il estate to collect any taxes. (That law has also bszii repealed or modified.) Mr. Cummins finding he could do nothing else but m ike the at tempt to collect first from personal property, beggfd Mr. Johnson -to ac cept the position of deputy collector for him and try and cll2C chess tax es so that he might go on with his sales in II10 fall. Mr. Cam.nins s.iys: "I coaxed and plead with Johnson to ac cept the position, because I thought he was the best m m I could find. We do not Hal fault with any man for voting for or against Mr. Johnson or any other candidate; that is every man's own business, and his reasons are his own. It is not for us to ques tion them.

Last Monday evening in company ; with a couple of friends the Herald visited the High School building and heard the profound and eloquent rc- ' marks of the assembled' wisdom of j vo'ing PJattFinouth. The exercises opened with music by Messrs. Petlee, Morrison and others Then a reading by Miss Sutton; an oration by Mr. Wooley, (Principle vs. Policy) very good too. After that the debate. The question was : ' Resolved, that the Pulpit has done more to ad vance civilization than the Press." Trof. Simons opened the debate. He overhauled the heathens, the ltomans, and several other folks. Mr. Druni mond followed and gaVe the Press u lift. J. F. Morrison followed him, paid the press a compliment and then told us that the pulpit did more to refine and civilize man than all other influ ences combined, but admitted that without the aid of the press the pulpit could not sustain itself. (Wc must laugh at friend Morrison a little - when he states there were 20, 000 people in one small church -Xow, we never saw one small church that would hold 20,000 people; nor did he, we opine.) Mr. Waterman made the most hu morous speech of the evening said there were only G3 out to church in rhitisinouth not long since, while hundreds were no doubt reading the p.tp-is. Mr. Waterman made some good points. Prank Morrison lit out like a house a ire, ta'.ked machinery, quoted Web ster to in and put tlie Press down sec ond best under the pulpit. Mr. Windham followed in a well considered and logical argument on the negative, saying the Press had made lhe civilization of the pulpit available. Mr. Simons closed the affirmative. A vote of the house decided that the negative had the best of the argument, and the Herald came home to reflect.
