The past record of Burch, the new
democratic secretary of the senate, and
Bright, the serg't at arms, is causing
much comment.
I their cases been
known before the nomisation even
democrats would have refused to sup
port them. A prominent democrat in
Washington is reported to have said
"he did think the p-rty had at least
live men whose hands were clean that
they could appoinc to o!nces in the sen
ate." But it seems they had them not.
In the division of Congressional
spoils the Con fids have been decided
ly .successful. Among, thsa the big
gest sugar plum is the Secretaryship of
the .Senate -0,100 a year, or only 31,
000 less than a cabinet position, and
nodediutions fur the time between

Tun Cincinnati Commercial is afraid
of the boys wh o were over 8 years old
when Lee surrendered. These boys
are now voters and enjoying the .first
enthusiasm of citizenship. Against
these fellows the Commercial tiles the
following bill of particulars: "About
all they know as a mass, or care to
know about General Grant is that he
emerged from the war the most con
rpicuous and victorious of the milita
ry chieftains. It is in the heart of
youth to love fame and rejoice in fa
mous men. Tho voung men are a
formidable accession to the Grant
movement." This is certainly very
alarming to a journalist of the army
mule type, but tho countrv can stand
it.
The Chicago Timos in another sound
and teliing article of the series which
we have been quoting, gives the follow
ing as the summary of the ultimatum
cf Confederate King Caucus:
1. Repeal of the i roc-clad oath f6r
jurors.
3. Repeal of this authorization of the
employment of soldiers in suppressing
violence at the elections.
y. Repeal of so much of the election
lavr as authorizes the appointment of
deputy marshals to perform police ser
vice at elections.
4. Abolition of the fibre of chief su
pervisor. 5. Abolition of all supervisory pow
ers of assistant supervisors, reducing
them to the status of mere spectators,
to be paid out of the national treasury
for looking on.

do well to ponJor on and get ready to
act.
llMK.Banaparte died on Friday last
:;t Baltimore, at the age of ninety-four.
Her maiden name was Patterson, her
family a wealthy and aristocratic one

commander of a French frigate, by
her beauty and accomplishments and
they were finally married. Napolec'n

The Olive Trial . "
Is progressing very 6lowly. The pro
secution is delayod by dilatory motions
from the defense, and although Jude
Gaslin declared lhey mast go to trial
Monday or Tuesday, they had not em
panelled a jury yet. On Tuesday even
ing they had got eleven men in the Ju
jy box and court adjourned, the whole
day being consumed in this business.
It seeai3 now that Olive and Fisher
will be tried together and Gillen, l)o
miaicus, Green, Baldwin and Broom
separately.
The excitement at Hasting's is im
mense and tho streets are crowded with
broad-brimmed slouch hats and fel
lows with pants in boots and jingling
spurs. A young son of J. P. Olive is
creating quite a sensation. He is about
ten years old and a brick; can ride
anything that wears hair and has four
legs smokes cigarettes, and squirts
tobacco juice through his teeth like a
Major. Before three days he hd won
one hundred marbles from tho Hast
ing's urchins, and is considered a Lion
in consequence.
Judge Gaslin is very determined the
trial shall go on but it would seem as
if the persistence of the lawyer for
the defence would wear out his pa
tience and frce a delay. At this
writing no evidence has been taken, if
we can get any before going to press,
we shall give it to our readers.
Thirty Days.
Remember those thirty days are al
most up, and we mean business. It is
no use t put notice after notice in the
paper. "When the time is up we pur
pose to collect our accounts just as we
said. Of course, we do not mean to
put accounts of those who have writ

but all others we certainly shall. The

A cunioua Indian problem is abeut
to be solved. Some twenty-five Pouca
Indians came from the Indian Terri
tory (where they had been transferred)
to the Omaha agency and there settled
and began to plant and prepare to raise
crops. The Department of the Inter
ior ordered Gen. Crook to remove them
to their reservation in the Indian ter
ritory which he was about to do when
friends of the Indians sued out a writ
of Habeas Corpus claiming that the
Indians were citizens of the U. S. pro
tected in their rights, and from unlaw
ful arrest, without due process of law.
while engaged in peaceful avocations.
Messrs. IppIeton and Webster, of
Omaha, have been retained for the
Poncas and the case will be tried bo
fore Judge Dundy in U. S. Court about
the Cuth of the month. It is to be
hoped the matter will be fully tested
and if the writ holds good it may
change the whole policy of the Gov
ernment towards the Indians.
The Fairmont Bulletin says: W II.
Michael, through his two papers, the
Sidney Plaindealer and the Fremont
Tribune, has been urging better pro
tection for the people in the north
western portion of the State, and has
succeeded in awakening quite an in
terest in the proposed measure to this
end." Governor Nance has given as
surance that nothing shall bo left un
done to protect the north-western bor
der against Indian raids and depreda
tions from whatever source. His first
measure towards this consummation
was the organization of a battalion of
mounted Infantry. This force under
the command of such men as Major

and interests of Western Nebraska the

Dr. Miller will have to face the mu

to be the Republican nominee for may

to New York. And now he has got to

For some months tho colored people
of Louisiana, principally, and other
southern states have been emigrating
north into Kansas:
Writing of this colored exodus frcra
Louisiana, ex-governor Pinchback says,
"there is no doubt in my mind that
this movement has assumed foi mid
able shape, and unless some means are
devised to arrest it, this portion of the
s'.ate will soon be entirely depopulated
of its laboring classes. The entire con
gregations of two of the leading Bap
tist churches of this parish have al
ready gone, and the estimate of the
number that has left since the move
ment began is placed by the white
planters as high as 1,500. While I
deeply deplore the condition of things
up here, 1 am not certain but that it
will be productive of more good than
harm in tho end, in that it has taught
the people of Louisiana that there is a
point beyond which even negro endur
ance cannot last."

T'ie Car il i. to remain at Lincoln.
If liio Appropriation Bill had failed,
thousands of dollars would have been
squandered by sectionalists, in pulling
hauling bribing and fighting for Fre
mont, Columbus, Central City, Grand

obscure towns. And the result would
have been that Lincoln would have
still remained the seat of Government

"After a struggle of eighteen years

"Yes, thank God, we have captured

Then will our glorious triumph be com

then will we break the shackle you

right of secession, a right that is not
dead, but Sleeping. "Then will we dec

we have captured the capitol, and from

Too Much Legislation.
Tho new States are avoiding one of
the evils which has borne heavily np
on the majority of tho older States; I
allude to too much Legislation. In
Nebraska and Colorado, the Legisla
tive I o lies convene only once in two
years, and the Legislatures of Minne
sota and Wisconsin have now voted,
almost unanimously, to substitute the
biennial for the annual sessions. "Th
least governed the best governed;"
"the fewer and simpler the laws the
better;" are old maxims, and it is gra
tifying to observe that Maine and Con
necticut are following the example of
the Western States in this matter.
American Ag.
The following from the old and well
established American Agriculturist
touches two points on which we have
considerable talk the past wintei :
Nebraska contracts with Mr. Stout
to maintain the inmates of the State
prison, near Lincoln, i'sr CO cents a,
head, and Mr. S. in turn, employs the
convicts at a variety of labor, due of
these, a murderer, sentenced for life,
herds a drove of cattle on tho prison
farm, and can be seen any day on horse
back, flourishing his long whip, nnd
keeping the cattl-J in line. He leaves
his cell early in the morning to join
his herd, and returns at night to his
secure quarters. The explanation of
the freedom allowed this convict, is
found in the f;;ct that, not long ago,
ho frustrated efforts made by his
friends to secure his pardon, declaring
that he preferred to remain in the pri
son to gaing elsewhere. Am. Ag.
Senator Brown, of Lancaster, is
reported to have, been one of thd bril
liant geniuses of the Jast legislature,
who took p:irticular jdeasure in tramp
ling on the newspaper interests of
the state. Let the publishers remem
ber him an 1 al 1 of this ilk who may
wish favors hereafter. Seward Re

Yni-l: Tri'.un?.
The Legislatuie sat -lown on the bill
providing for the. publication of the
commissioners' proceedings in two pa
pers in each county. This was one of
the w isest and most just bills intro
duced in the Legislature. It was ju3t
to the people. It was intended to give
the people a full knowledge- of the af
fairs of the county, arid to make the
countv othcials furnish them under
oath of office. But the w is;) legisla
tors saw lit to kill the bill, and now it
is a duty that every newspaper owes
to the people to remember, for future
use, every man lhat voted against it.
Beatrice Courier.
Thy Tribuii'i moves tint a list f the
vote be published in every newspaper
of the State, and tint the editors ever
hold them in "gratef ul rememb-rauce"
for the graceful manner in wh:ch they
sat down upon a bill that would give
them a "fair shake." The editors of
Nebraska have been abused by Legis
latures long enough, and we would
like to see them unite their strength,
and consign every man who has voted
against them, to total obscurity. Bro
ther editors, we must assert our rights
in such a manner that tho dtr.agogues
who "get phat" by means of our influ
ence and then vote against us on ques
tions of importance, will understand
that we have some rights which even
a Leg!slafure is bound to respect.
Growers of Sheep.
A report of tho joint convention cf
the "Wisconsin merino sheep breeder's
association," and the "stale wool grow
ers association," which convened at
Whitewater, on t e 21st of January, is
just out. Tlie report is a lengthy one,
and interesting to sheep breeders. A
resolution wus offered that the two as
sociations consolidate, which was car
ried. The object of the association
shall be the encourngement and pro
tection of the sheep breeding and wool
growing interest of the btate and the
improvement of the breeds of sheep
by such means as are adopted by sim
ilar organizations in ether states.
Any person may become a member
of this association by subscribing to

There are many prairie fires and

man, who last week had some fifty
fruit and ornamental trees destroyed
by a fire has commenced suit for dam
ages. Some of his fruit trees have
just come into bearing. It seeir.3 too
bad to lose the fruit, in a double sense,
of one's labor. Several haystacks have
fed the fire instead of cattle. Yates
Ogden very nearly lost his house and
stable and cows by tho fiery fiend. He
was not at home awd several neighbors
kindly fought tho fire and saved his
property.
The trial by Shoopman will probably
teach some of cur farmers that they
must use great caution in sotting out
fiies. All have eoruo from trying to
burn off fields. There are too many
young orchards and groves starved now
to allow lires to run very much.
In ths meanwhile- we are wailing
for spring. "Ordtr is Heaven's first

Owing to the inclemency of the wea
ther for the past week farming has al
most been brought to a standstill; the
weather has been so cold and disagree
able that overcoats and winter appa
rel has been in good demand, and was
very necessary. Notwithstanding all
drawbacks farm work moves rapidly
on with that unaba'.ing energy that
knows no stopping. But yesterday
' r.ni to day (Tt;e;'.Uy) it Ia3 been ra-
dually growing warmer, and the good
and much needed shower fell Sunday;
the prospects for better times are an
ticipated and a bountiful harvest in
the end. Wheat and bailey about all
sown, the acreage sown i3 perhaps as
large as usual.
Rye and timothy fields are looking
quite green, and we predict will be a

Farmers have bcgHii to plow fcr
