"What made Commissioner "Wolfe

The Marquis of Lome, Queen Vic
toria's son-in-law, is to bo Governor
General of Canada.
The Greenback boys meet at Louis
ville on the 10th of August to select
delegates to the state convention on
the 14tli.
By a recent decision of the Supreme
Court, the late game law was declared
unconstitutional, and the old law is
now in force. After the 1st of August
the bovs can shoot chickens, and they
are happy. Quail may be killed alter
October 1st. until January.
Father Martin's story has struck
Rob Ingerso'.l at l;tst. The Ponca
Journal says: "It is instructive, inter
esting and of exalted morality."
We received from J. P. Young a
complimentary to the Cass County
Fair, commencing Sep. 17th and con
tinuing four days. Thanks, Mr. Young,
will try to be thar or tharabouts.
F;:ed Nye is making a very newsy
" News" of his newspaper, new's it is.
If he only knew more news, there'd
be more " News to know, for those
who read the News.
Tin: members of the Judicial dis
trict Central Committee are M. R. Cut
Cass; J. G. Watson, Otoe; C. O. Whee
den, Lancaster; and J. S. Stull, Xema
ha, Chairman. We would like to hear
when they meet and also to know who
is our member of the 50th Representa
tive district.
Rei Ci-oi'D, Webster county is said
to be one of the prettiest little places in
the Republican Valley. In a conver
sation with Gov. Garber the other day
we learn that Red Cloud is going a
head very rapidly. The road will be
completed there tin's summer and all
the citizens are feeling proud and hap
py over their good future.
Tin: first engine ever wholly built
in Nebraska was finished at the 13. &
M. shops in riattsmouth lately, under
the directions of Master-Mechanic
Hawksworth. She is called "The
Plattsmouth" and handles a heavy
freight train like an old stager. Hur
rah for the trans Missouri Manufac
tories. Daniel's paper as was comes out
for Mr. Blanchard of Dodge for Con
gressman. That's cute, now as a citi
zen here, if we wanted to support any
one except Mr. Welch who may be
said to have some claims to re-election
from lltpuhlicnns we should have
thought it would have been the hand
some thing to suggest Hon. Sam M.
Chapman, a Cass County man, and a
man good for something as a Congress
man, that's what we would do under
like circumstances.
We believe the State Central Com
mittee made a mistake in setting the
Convention so late; if the plea of a
short canvass, less expense to men and
newspapers is the theory on which
they acted.
The friends, of many candidates have
trotted them out already, they are
practically before the people now, and
individuals will have all the long
months of August and September to
prod and poke and plan and talk. Every
local quarrel will be intensified. When
the candidates are nominated they be
come, as we may say. the property of
the party, and opposition to a great ex
tent ceases. Refore that time they are
public property. Few of the candi
dates now in the field will survive un
til Convention time, or we miss our
guess.
"Smooth talk butters no parsnips,"
and all the promises of wouldl e candi
dates and aspiring politicians in this
county cannot alter the fact ths.t un
less the right kind of candidates are
nominated at the convei.tlon on Sept.
14th, and nominated by the people, in
stead of being "set up" by a ring, over
board goes the Republican ticket. If
"conciliation," means simply giving up
our rights and letting a few men run
the county, there's no conciliation here.
Of course we can have peace, they say.
Yes, the peace of death, the victory of
thegiave. The people mean to make
this ticket, and if thej- are balked, look
out for defeat, that's all there is about
it. We are tired of chatter and smooth
words, contradicted by every act after
wards. The Herald for itself, and
for the people of the county, whom it
represents, gives fair warning, here
and now, that no scullduggery, no un
derhanded work will be tolerated. Fair
and square nominations of the right
men or no play.
Col. Chase, in his closing address at
York, alludes to the ilag raised at Ren
ick, Mo., by the 1st Iowa regiment,
who, having possession of the town,
and, seeing no stars and stripes lloat
ing, asked if they had no Union flag in
town :
" They were told the ladies had one,
and i roug'it forth this one. It is, as
what rude. It has, however, the eagle
the stars aud stripes, though tattered.
soneu ana lernoiy lorn. uer me
capture of the town, the rebels return
ed, and with most wrathful demonstra
tions, undertook to take down the flag.
It was securely fastened, however, and
then they tore it and riddled it with
over one hundred bullet holes, and
here they are count them if you will."
Hon. Sam. Chapman, of this place,
was also a member of the Iowa 1st,
and helped to raise that same old ilag.
The eclipse on Monday was witness
ed from High School Hill, by the great
body of Plattsmouth scientists. Prof.
MacDonagh was there and Prof. Drum-
Imondtosay nothing of lesser lights
such as Dr. Editor Lawyer. The
first contact was at 13 minutes past S,
local time and the greatest obscura
tion at 5 minutes past four. The fol
lowing is one of the briefest descrip
tions of the track of the eclipse and we
republish. "This cone of shadow
whlch caused the total part of the
eclipse strikes horizontally upon the
earth's surface at a point in Siberia
at sunrise on July 20, local date. It
travels northeasterly to about the
180th degree of longitude, where the
date suddenly changes to- July 29,
crossing Rehnng Straits on a due east
course, is in southeastern Alaska at
noon, local time, follows the sum
mit of the Rocky Mountains over the
National Paik to Central City, Col.
passes out of Colorado at the south
east corner of the State, arriving at
the Gulf ot Mexico between Galveston
and leaves the earth at sundown in
the Carribean Sea."
The late decision of Sec'y Sehurz in
regard to railroad lands, is creating
considerable excitement. He holds
that such lands as have not been sold,
or disposed of within three years after
the roads were completed, revert to the
actual homesteader, or settler at $1.35
per acre.
It raises many nice questions of law,
however. In the first place, in the
case of the U.P., the Government took
a mortgage on the lands to secure its
debt, then released that mortgage, that
the company might raise money to
build the road, and again took a second
mortgage bond, the railroad companies
backed b' no less an authority than
Jere Black claim that this "disposed" of
them within the meaning of the law.
Again, some of those lands have never
been surveyed by the Government, and
could not be occupied by the road be
fore; taxes have been paid by the road
and received by the government during
the three years since completion of the
road, and patents granted during that
time and up to this holding of the Sec
retary. In the case of the B. & M., in this
state, Judge Dillon decided it was not
one of the original land grant roads,
ar.d was chartered under an independ
ent act not subject to the provisions of
the act of '03.
At all events it must make a com
plication injurious to the sale of the
lands and the settlement of the coun
try, as no one wants to buy knowingly
into a long and onerous contest.
Sleeting of County Central Committee.
The Republican County Central
Committe of this county met at Eight
Mile Grove, Saturday, July 27th, pur
suant to call of J. A. MacMurphy, Pres
ident. On motion, James Hall was elected
Secretary. The following members
were present:
Plattsmouth I). II. Wheeler, E. G.
Dovey, P. P. Gass, proxy for Sam. M.
Chapman, John Jennings, appointed
by the Republicans of the 4th Ward in
place of M. B. Cutler, now of Elmwood ;
Rock Blufis, Geo. Berger; Liberty, S.
B Hobson; Mt. Pleasant, Jas. Hall;
Weeping Water, T. Clark; Salt Creek,
II. D. Root, Avoca, J. W. Cox.
The Chairman stated that he had
hoped to have had a full representa
tion from every precinct, and that had
it been known that the State Conven
tion would not meet until October 1st,
or how the weather would delay the
harvest, the Committe would not have
been called until a week later, although
he had taken the precaution to ask the
members throughout the county at
what time it would be most convenient
for them to come, and the majority of
those answering designated the last of
July. He also called attention to the
fact that dissatisfaction existed in the
party, and invited a free and full con
ference on the same. A discussion
followed ; entered into by Jas. Hall, J.
W. Cox, T. Clark, Mr. Glover, Dr. Root,
P. P. Gass, D. II. Wheeler, and others,
the result of which seemed to be that
the party could meet and work harmo
niously, provided each portion of the
county would unite, put sectional feel
ings aside, let bygones be bygones, and
work honestly and heartily for the
ticket when nominated.
A discussion followed on the propri
ety of "Mass Primaries;" a question
brought up last year, and left standing.
The members of the committee present
not feeling willing to take the respon
sibility of a change, the matter was
laid over.
Mr. Wheeler moved that the time for
holding the County Convention bo fix
ed on Saturday, Sept. 14th, 1878, and
that but one convention be held, at
which all delegates to be selected, and
also county representatives, including
one commissioner, should be nominat
ed. Considerable debate followed in re
gard to holding one or two conventions.
Mr. Wheeler's motion finally prevailed
and the time was fixed .as above.
Mr. Cox moved that the convention
be held at Weeping AVater. Mr. Dovey
substituted Louisville. On these prop
ositions nearly every member spoke
one way or the other. The question
was put on the substitute (for Louis
ville) first, and the chair declared it
lost. A division was called for and
the chair asked for a rising vote. It
stood five for Louisville and six for
AVeeping AVater. The chair then put
the original motion, in favor of AV. Ar.
and it was carried, and AVeeping AVater
declared as the place of meeting and
1 o'clock, i m., the time. The time of
holding primaries was then fixed for
Saturday, Sept. 7th, at the times and
places indicated in the call. The com
mittee then adjourned.

Proceedings of the Cass County Normal
Institute.
The Cass County Normal Institute
met- according to previous notice, in
AVeeping AVater on Monday, July 22J.
There being only a few teachers pres
ent, partly owing to unfavorable weath
er, the real work of the Institute was
not begun until the next day.
On Tuesday, after the necessary pre
liminaries of arrangement had been
attended to, Supt. Martindale stated
the object of the Institute to be. to go
over all the branches necessary for ex
amination for a Second Grade Certifi
cate. The first thing taken up was
reading, in which all participated, fol
lowed by arithmetic, going over the
ground as far as addition. In the af
ternoon the first exercise was drawing,
conducted by Mr. Loof bourrow follow
ed by some good instruction by Supt.
Martindale. after which the programme
to be followed during the Institute
was announced. The usual order be
ing: A. M., reading, arithmetic, recess,
physiology, spelling; P. M., grammar,
history, geography ; lessons being giv
en out each day to bo prepared for the
next. On Wednesday and Thursday
in reading special attention was paid
to articulation and pronunciation.
Penmanship took the place of reading
on Friday, conducted by Mr. Loofbour
row. Supt. Martiudale conducted the
arithmetic and during the week passed
over the fundamental principles with
the least common multiple, and great
est common divisor. In physiology
the course marked out by the State
Supetintendent was taken up. The
circulatory organs, their anatomy,
physiology, and hygiene constituted
the first week's work.
In grammar, the first lesson or two
was spent in analyzing the different
parts of speech, passing over only the
noun the first week. The history has
been conducted by Mr. Lool'bourrow,
and he lias passed over during the week
the explorations and first settlements
made by the different nations in the
New AVorld.

ton, U. Bruner, E. Rosewater and S. V.
Davidson.
On motion of Mr. Michael the com
mittee was instructed to make the ap

counties upon the basis of their high
est republican vote for the years 18TG
and 1877.
The meeting then adjourned for one
half hour.
On reassembling the committee on
apportionment made their report,
w hich w;fs received, amended so as to
include Seward county, and approved.
(See report in the call.)
On motion the convention was fixed
at Lincoln Tuesday October 1st, at 2
p. m.
Mr. Snvder of Sidnev, presented a
petition in behalf of the republican
voters of Lincoln county, asking tl.e
state central committee to designate a
day for the holding of primaries in
that county, for the purpose of electing
a county central committee, and there
by harmonize the conflict that now
exists on account of thero being two
central committees. A healthy discus
sion ensued on the part of Messrs.
Rosewater, Michael, Reavis, Davidson,
Stevenson, Tzschuck, Abbott and Clark.
Ti e general tenor of the argument
seemed to be an ardent desire on the
part of every member of the commit
tee to have the republicans of Lincoln
county settle their difference amicably,
honorably, and manfully and to unite
their efforts in working for the com
mon interebt and good of the party.
It wa3 the general impression that the
settlement of the question was not
within the jurisdiction of the central
Commitee. Upon motion of G. L.
Brown the subject was indefinitely
postponed.
Mr. AVheeler introduced the follow
ing recommendation which was read
and adopted: "That no proxies be ad
mitted to the convention except such
as are held by persons residing in the
counties from which the proxies are
given." Mr AVells introduced the fol
lowing additional recomendation
which was read and adopted. That no
delegate shall represent an absent
member of his delegation, unless he be
clothed with authority from the coun
ty convention, or is in possession of
proxies from regular elected delegates
thereof.
On motion, H. M. AVells was elect
ed permanent secretury of the com
mittee. THE MARKETS.
