We have received a copy of the ora
tion delivered at York on the 4th by
Hon. Champion S. Chase, of Omaha.
We have not yet had time to read it,
but in glancing over it we find a most
excellent review of Nebraska history
which we reserve for future reading,
and which will prove of value for re
ference. Eugene May field, is our only assist
ant. We find himgfntel, accommodat

clever young man. Next week wo

in giving him a complimentary para
graph. Harvard Echo.

try your hand next week, we want a

Dan. Wheeler is on his ear about
the letter to the Bee, "Not for Par"
and thinks Mat-Murphy wrote it. He
is worried about our republicanism,
too. We'll look cut for o;ir3, if he
will for his; and it's rather thin for a
man who has allowed his paper to be a
vehicle for any man's abuse, all sum
,aer, to complain of a little of the same
medicine.
The Slate Convention should see to
it that a thorough and able lawyer is
nominated for Attorney General.
There is no use of electing an Attor
ney General unless lie is a man whoso
"?iaion will be regarded as of some
value, and a man who ha3 skill enough
vo manage the States cases in a credit
:e manner. The plan of electing a
nan to fill this office w hose decisions
uld not be relieel upon to any degree
f certainty by the other State oiiicers
as been practiced too long already.

Such a man is Judge Kaley, of Bed

best sense of the word, whose private

tcl'.ect and undoubted honesty. If j

At the State convention this year it
is very important that all the counties
between the Elkhorn and the Missouri
or those counties included in the Sixth
Judicial District, should work unitedly.
It is not good taste for the newspapers
of our district to create ill will, and it
is to be hoped that our politicians will
keep cool-headed amid these attacks.
Northern Nebraska, through he r lack
of unity, has in the past been thrown
into fhe hands of its enemies. Tor the
welfare of our section of the state, it
is the duty, and ought to be the wish,
of our representative men to look a
little after public intere-st as well as
their own. ft i3 desirable that we
should this year be in harmony, and
we hape to see more cool-headedness
on both sides of the political field than
is customary, especially so with our
contemporaries. Pioneer.
MaeMurphy, of tho Plaitsmouth
Herald, and J. A. Connor, Esq., are en
gageel in a personal warfare through
the papers of that too much bull-dozed
city. Temperance i3 on the rampage
there and the town is cursed by the
same kiml of an outfit that Ashland
was several years ago. They trieel to
suppress the Herald because its editor
would not go out on the streets and
howl temperance as they did. They
withdrew patronage and started an
opposition paper. Dan. Wheeler, a
man never noted for his temperance
proclivities, headed the movement and
Connor acted as lieutenant. It turns
oat now that Daniel wants to be Sec
retary of State and his part of the
grand temperance farce was played
merely for political efiVct. Joseph A.
buys grain, and thinking as some of
our temperance apostles did, that the
crusade was goin to "carry everything
before it" jumped straddle of the im
aginary tidal wave with the expecta
tions of being carried on to glory and
success. We can see just how it was
and we admire the pluck of little Mac
for showing them up in their true light.
Such men -are warts upon the commu
nity in which they live and no country
is entirely free of then?. In the words
of tho truly wise "we had one onct."

Will answer some enquires through
the Herald. There are still several
good claims in this county. Timber is
more plenty and better distributed
than in Cass Co. Abundance of run
ning water. Best of range for stock;
buffalo grass retaining its nutritive
qualities all winter. No feeding, ex
cept in times of heavy storm of snow,
flood building rock. Texan cows with
or without calves, sell at 812, to 814 ;
2 year old heilTers ditto; yearlings $3.
Cwps best ever known here; never saw
better prospects: rye and millet mostly
cut, and some wheat and barley. Corn
promises heavy crops. First grass
hoppers yesterday, a few Hying north.
We have freo range in this county.
The county is out of debt; low taxes;
healthy locality.

Plattsmoutii, July ISth, 1S7S.
Jno. A. MacMuri'hy, Kq. Your
lecture on temperance in the Herald
of this date is very interesting, at the
same time you will excuse me for ven
turing to eliffer with you on that sub
ject. After being armed with Web
ster you proceed to inform your read
ers that temperance is not total absti
nence, but moderation In the indul
gence of thu appetites and passions, as
temperance in eating and drinking.ixc.
That question I don't deny, but sir, I
think you will agree with me on this,
that a man don't have to drink intoxi
cating drinks in any quantity to be
temperate, but to the contrary when
he is satisfied that they are no benefit
to him it then becomes his duty to ab
stain from them, for a man cannot eat
or drink anything temperately that is
injurious to him; temperance in eat
ing and drinking is .a proper use of
food which includes as truly abstinence
from bad or injurious as the use of
good, ami if alcoholic liquors are not
needed as a beverage, true temperance
teaches and demands entire abstinence
from them, for what is neither good in
motive, sound in sense nor useful in
result can have no title to the name of
temperance. There is nothing new in
that idea, for Socrates l.i' years before
Christ said : "Be who knows what is
good and chooses it, who knows what
is bad and avoids it is learned and
temperate." I therefore contend that
temperance consists in total abstinence
from everything that is injurious and
the moderate use of that which is good,
and Sir, if this is not the true doctrine
then I defy both you and Webster to
rectontile the word temierance with
common sense. One word more in the
favor of total abstinence from intoxi
cating drinks and then I am elone for
the present. I see from the St. Louis elis
patches of this morning the fatal cases
of sunstroke number one hundred and
forty-five, of those two-thirds or fouij
fifths were men or women who were
either drunkards or habitual drinkers
of strong liquors or beer, so much for
the use of liquors in hot weather, and
the great navigators of the polar re
gionsboth English ami American, Boss,
Parry, Fianklin, Hichardsou, Kennedy
and Kane have demonstrated the actu
al perniciousness of alchohols in high
latitudes where all the powers of life
are needed to resist the destructive en
ergies of physical natuie. Now all
this evidence goes to show that intoxi
cating drinks are not needed either in
hot or cold climates and I am led to
believe that when a man drinks them
he don't care a curse what Webster
says about them, but drinks them be
cause he likes them. I will now close
believing this dose of temperance
enough for onee Bespectfully,

The congressional cormorants are
soaring in great numbers over , Frank
Welch's seat in congress. Many of
hi3 former supporters arc now bitteily
opposed to. him for the succession,
very probably because they could not
make a pliant tool of Nebraska's rej
rescntative. Mr. Welch is a republican to be sure,
anel we have not the least admiration
for his party's politics; but, neverthe
less, we shall do him the justice to say
that he is the only member of congress
from this state who has ever done any
tiling beneficent for our people. His
skillful -management of the new tim
ber law renders him worthy not only
of every man's regaril in the state, but
entitles him to be renominated twenty
times as much as either Taffe or
Crounse. Mr. Welch, with the assist
ance of Senator Paddock, in the senate,
secured this everlasting boon for the
western people. Moreover, he voted
for the remonetizatiou of silver; and
if he would only pronounce himself an
out and out greenback proclivity man,
Mr. Welch would be our republican
choice for a seat from Nebraska in the
4Gth congress of the United States.

The Candidates.
It may seem a tritle strange that the
Kearney Press has'had nothing to say
concerning the different candidates for
office in this state. The reason is plain
when tlistinctly told: We have no ax
to grind, no political debts to pay and
no slim candidate to bolster up.
The people of this county, elistrict
and state are as thoroughly interested in
the nominations to be made as we can
possibly be and we shall not try to in
lluence their e'.ecision. If a candidate
appears concerning whom we know
something that should disqualify him
for the office to which he aspires, we
shall not hesitate to give it to the pub
lic. If we know anything favorable to
the candidacy of any man, that shall
also be given to our readers. We do
not and shall not attempt to guide or
control any man's actions in political
matters; but we shall in each and ev
ery instance publish wLat it concerns
our citizens to know and, and unless
we are badly mistaken, they are fully
competent to make tlrir own selec
tions. Kearney Press.

HENRY WAKD BEECHEIl.
He Will Deliver Five Lectures in Iowa.
The Ilev. Henry Ward Beecher has
been engaged to deliver ten lectures
in Callifornia, for which he receives
the handsome sum of $11,000. Messrs.
Hathaway & Fond, Boston, under
whose management Mr. Beecher lec
tures, have arranged for him to ele
liver live lectures in Iowa. It was
with difficulty that this arrangement
was made, as his time for entire lec
ture season is filled, ami ho has been
compelleel to lengthen his season,
which he most reluctantly did in order
to enable him to stop in this state at
all. To hear and see Mr. Beecher is a
privilage to be enjoyed seldom in life,
and no one should fail to hear the
most eloquent pulpit orator in the
country. Mr. Beecher is now in the
full Hood of his intellectual and orato
rical powers, and last season was the
most successful of his life. At Chica
go eight thousand people heard him,
and hundreds were turned away who
could not gain admittance to the great
tabernacle. Those who had heardhim
in the past were astonished to see how
he had eiutgrown even their recollec
tions of him. He was himself, inten
sified. This will probable be his last season
in the west, anel all thoso who wish to
hear him at his very best should avail
themselves of the present opportunity
which will undoubtely be the only one
they will ever have.
Messrs. Hathaway and Pond have
arranged with Mr. C. O. Perry, of Char
iton, Iowa, to manage Mr. Beecher's
le-ctures in this state, which is of it
self a sufficient guarantee of their suc
cess, and that the comfort and pleas
ure of all who attend will bo most ef
ficiently look after. Mr. Beecher will
reach Iowa about the first of August.

The very zealous and recently devel
oped temperance body known as the
Heel Ribbon organization, has just held
a large and harmonious state conven
tion at detroit, and one clause of the
address for publication, adopted on the
occasion without opposition, is worthy
of the especial atsention of the tem
perance people of Massachusetts. It
commences as follows We desire
also to say that we are opposed to the
experiment of making our faith and
creed a platform on which to rear a
new and distinct political party ; with
as much propriety might all the relig
ious elenominations of the land origin
ate and press upon the public their
several sectarian political parties. So
to do would at once tiisol ve and destroy
Red Ribbon-ism as an element of re
form, a wliolesom movement for the
elevation and improvement cf men."
The prohibitionists of New England
need not bo ashamed to take a lesson
from these devoted, stalwart wonder
fully efficient apostles of temperance.

Throe of a Kind Hronght Into Omaha
as Prisoners of War.
Emm the Dee.
Captain Bak.bridge, of tho Four
teenth Infantry, arrived here yester
day, from Fort Hall, Idaho, .having in
charce three notoriously bad and
treacherous Bannock Indians Bash
oho, and his two sons, Bawoh and Ber
nard. They were secured by ball and
chain and were guarded by Sergeant
Ferns, Corporal Usinger, and privates
Taylor and Prior. They were taken
to the Omaha Barracks, there to be
held as prisoners of war. The history
of this family, and the circumstances
which led to their capture will prove
of general interest. Tambiago, one of
the sons of Bashoho, it will be remem
bered, was hung on the 2Sth of Juno
last, for the murder of Aleck.' Rhoden
in November last, and another son,
Oneija by name, is now in Boise City
prison serving out a term of fifteen
year?, for the shooting and wounding
of two freighters, in August last.
It appears that Rhoden was the man
who butchered and supplied the beef
to the Bannocks, among whom he was
a general favorite, and they seemed to
feel quite badly over his death. Tam
biago killed Rhoden on the same day
that Oneijalvas arrested for the shoot
ing of the two freighters. He started
out to kill the first white man that he
should meet, and Rhoden happened to
be that man and fell a victim to the
Inelian's revenge. At first the. Indians
did not hunt Tambiago very well, but
when Captain Bainl ridge held back
the pay of the Bannock scouts, amount
ing to some six thousand dollars, t hey
exerteel themselves a great eleal more
actively at least they pretended to do
so. They compelled him to leave
their cs mp where he hid been hiding
On the day of the murder, old Bashoho
and his two sons, Bawoh and Bernard,
with their squaws left the camp, and
next day seventy-five Indians caught
up with them, and found Tambiago
with them. The fugitives kept their
pursurers at bay for a while, anel final
ly ere driven into the Snake rive
country, where they made their escape
Buffalo Horn, an Indian chief, with
ten other Indians, started out next
day to catch them, but as they were
out only a few days and did not suc
ceed in capturing Tambiago, Captain
Bainbridge made up his mind that
they were not working in good faith.
Tambiago, however, came very near
being taken by Big Horn's squad, but
made his escape by a scratch, and got
away only with his horse and gun,
leaving every thing else behind. A
few days afterwards he made his ap
pearance at the Snake river bridge in
a very destitute condition. As stated
above, he was afterwards captured by
Captain Bainluidge. His conviction
was a very difficult thing, as the only
witnesses for the prosecution was a
half-breed named Charley Rainey and
his wife.
There ought to be something elone
to stop cattle from running over the
sidewalks. In the morning when the
hearders are taking the cows out to
feed they are chased and run over
sidewalks, breaking tliem to pieces,

nuisance and ought ta be abated.
Side-walks are too expensive to be used
for any such purpose. People who
own cows ought to protest against
having them chased all over town

of dogs and boys. Blair Pilot.

What the Marshal of New York Says:
The following indorsement will be
of interest to many who have not yet
tested these essential aids to tho full
elevelopment of the speed of a trotter
Benton's Sreed Accelerators -the
price of which has been reduced to
3 per pair or $5 for two pairs:
Office of P. Daily, City Marshal,
New York, June 11, 1678.
Wilbur C. Benton, Esq., Browns
town, Indiana Dar Sir: I have
given your Steed Accelerators a
thorough test, singles double, attached
them to the reins, to the saddle, over
draw anel check-rein. In my judg
ment they are the most excellent
things ever invented to produce speed
anil comfort for horses.
Horsemen and humanitarians have
for years sought to invent attachments
for horses' mouths, the former looking
principally to speed, the latter seeking
relief for the horse from the strain of
checks and bits on the mouth. The
Accelerators accomplish both, for
they remove the permanent strain of
checks and bits from the mouth and
head of the horso by imparting the
proper elasticity, which the horse feels
immediately, and improves at emce in
style anel speed. Owners of horses,
whether trotters, roadsters, coach or
business horses, should use them.
Any horseman who gives your Accel
eratoirs a trial will not only indorse
what I say, but recommend them to
every one owning horses.
Hoping you .will succeed in estab
lishing what I firmly believe to be the
best tiling ever devised for horses, is
the wish of one thoroughly convinced
of their usefulness.
Yours truly,
Patrick Daily, City Marshal.
