Are they American citizens or Afri

who is responsible for their presence
among us, and their relation to us?
These are questions yet to be answer
ed, Men from different stand-points give
different answers, none satisfactory to
tlie whole, however. But one thing is
potent to all. This oppressed, despised
peeple had naught to d with their in
troduction among us as slaves. Nei
ther was their liberation their own
werk; Americans enslaved, Ameri
cans liberated, and the umpire of na
tions submitted. Now that the incu
bus is upon us. what a shifting of re
sponsibility. Yet the fiaalo is none
the less threatening and dangerous.

At tho fourteenth anniversary of the
Natioual Temperance Society, held in
Brooklyn last May, one of the speak
ers, the Rev. Dr. l'eck, of Brooklyn,
after a powerful array of facts, and a
most forcible argument in favor of
lotai aostmence, urged oy most con
vincing logic the right and the duty of
all good citizens to seek tomperanco
legislation a follows:
Some men and some newspapers are
seized with the ra'jica of denunciation
when we suggest temperanco legisla
tion. This is eilhor deinagogism or in
corrigible ignorance. For there never
was a colony before the Revolution,
nor a State in tho Union since, that
did not and has not, iu 250 yeais, as
sumed the right to legislate upon the
sale of liquors. True, it has been large
ly in the form of license or regulation,
but that admits the right and necessi
ty of the State that is, the public
opinion to control it. If the law
may say who shall and who shall not
sell; if the state or city, may prohibit
ninety-nine citizens from selling it and
permit only one to vend it, then, in
the exercise of the same right and
power, it may prohibit it altogether as
a beverage. It the State mav prohibit
the sala on Sunday, and to minors and
known drunkards, then it may by the
sam" right prohibit it on all days and
to all non-minors and nou-drunkanls ;
and no nou-minor or non-drunkard can
refute this logic!
The right of the people through
their representatives to control the
sale of liquor being established, what
legislative policy is dntyi
Is the sale and drinking of liquors,
a a beverage, a good or evil to the
drinker, the family, tho taxpayer, tho
social fabric, the church, and the com
monwealth? You know tho dreadful
bill of indictment found by tho grand
jury of history. The pauperism, crime
sickness, waste, woe, wretchrdncss,
misery, horror, death and damnation
aro known and read of all men. Has
the Slate the right to lirems all this?
Should not the State prohibit and pre
vent this to the utmost of its power?
Open bars are the prolific source of in
temperance. Suppress open bars 2nd
two-thirds of all intemperance would
tlisappear. The State has no right to
license a mau to deal out the poison
that maddens my brain to commit
murder, and then hang ine for doing
what its license crazed me to do. The
State permits men to sell to their fellow-man
what incites them to violence
and crime, and then pockets from 6100
to $.VJ0 of the blood money as its sharo
for permitting this hellish work to be
done. The Stata or city, iu licensing
it, becomes a partner in causing the
woe and hoiror. And every voter is
the State. Every voter sends a repre
sentative to Albany to license or pio-
hibit the cause of all this crime and
misery. Legislators liave a power of
attorney to act for the voters. What
they do ire do. Have we the right to
legalize a enrso and wrong against
mankind? We have no right to legal
ize tho cans'; of more crime and woe
than spring from larceny, gambling
ttad prostitution. Now prohibition
deals with the evil ot liquor-;e!l:ng :is
God deals with all evils furbl h it.

Hon. Roscoe Conklino is accused
of a liasoa with Mrs. Kate Sprague,
and a recoutre took placo between Ex
Senator Spraguo and Senator Conkling

Conkling.
The yellow fevsr stiil rages in Mem
phis, but other points, so far, are al
most free from it. A scare at Corinth,

from Hying yellow fever citizens, has
caused a stampede. The fever seems

The biggest kind of a railroad war
is opened up between the B. & M. and
the U. 1. Tha U. P. are carrying
all freight between Omaha and Kear
ney at oc per hundred, and cattle at
ctio per car instead of 6G8. The B.
& M. carry from Kearney to Platts
mouth Rt S3 per car, making about $
to Chicago. The light commenced on
stock and is mostly confined t that,
not auecting passenger rates nor other
freight generally.
A railroad bond ficht has beea jre-
ing on in Gage county all summer be
tween the U. P. and B. & M. compa
nies. An election for bonds to the U.
P. was held on tho 11th, and they car
ried by a fair majority. Omaha thinks
this gives her an outlet to the South
Platte country.
Later reports state that although
there was a majority vote for the
bonds there was not a legal majority
that is two-thirds and consequently
they were lost.
Now you see politics are really bo

"No surrender, no compromise!" But
it is raid, "Prohibition is i. failure!"'
That is a falsehood, Malignant awd uit
mitijiated. It has not wholly sup
pressed the salt of liquors, but in many
places it has suppressed all open ban
and nine-tenths o: the sa-e. l he pro
hibitory laws against stealing, burgla
ry, arson, adultery and murder have
not wholly suppressed these crimes
bhail we, therelore, repeal those pro

Tha logic is invincible.
As I cannot detail the overwhelm
proot er the grand, though not com
plete, success of prohibitory laws in
this country and Great Britain, in
m an r parishes ot which-1 have irre
sistible testimony I will prove it by
a mlwdio ad absurdam. All enemies
of temperance denounce and oppose
prohibition. Every distiller and brew
er hates it; every low groggery and
beer saloon hates it; every beer-garden
and bagnio hates it; every drunkard
and tippler hates it; every man who
profits by the sale in routs and auxil
iary business hates it ;every demagogue
who rides into ortico on tho v-.tes of
the saloon hates it; every partisan who
loves party more than principle hates
it every newspaper that panders to
the tratlic and profits by its patronage
hates it the whole army f dealers.
drinkers and allies denounce and fight
prohibition. "Why oppose a law that
does not injure the business? The
brewers and liquor dealers have or
ganized to crush prohibition. Why
crush a failure? Whoever heard of
the opponents ef a law organizing and
spending large sums of money to re
sist and repeal a law that did not hurt?
Wonderful lopiic! The "President of
the Brewors Congress of tho United
States, held in Baltimore last June, de

words -"Undi-H table success has at

will shout louder than ever: "No sur

but it is no longer a whirlwind. If

Christian citizens, we must rote the

In answer to various and numerous
questions and inquiries from our coun
ty readers, we give a general review
of the Institute and its work.
To start with, it is a model school
for general and thorough review of
such branches, and such only, as are
required by law for first and second
grade certificates in this state.
The programme of daily recitations
was arranged and placed on the board
the first day, and has been carried out
to the letter. Each study has its time
and has tho attention of all during
that time. Each day's work is definite
ly assigned by topics, and only that
topic or division of the study will be
considered for tho time aisigned. For
example take the study cf physiology.
That division or part of it which treats
of motion, as the bones and muscles,
is given for one or two days' work, as
the extent of that division may re
quire. This division is considered the
motory apparatus or system. It is
scheduled on tho board showing the
divisions and sub-divisions in full.
Thus a complete and natural outline
of the subject is secured, and any au
thor can be used as text and authority.
ltie scientific names of tha important
organs, bone, muscles, &c, are re
quired, aiyl in a short time each teach
er has a perfect outline and- vocabula
ry for the subject in hand.
Alter tins is finished ine nutritive
apparatus is taken Hp, scheduled on
the board by the teacher, showing the
various subdivisions, as mouth, teeth
salivary glands, oesophagus, stomach,
intestines, liver, panaeres. spleen, Sec
Questions as to the size, lecation, func
tion, hygiene. Sec, are asked concern
ing each division or part of a division,
in order that each teacher may secure
a comprehensive, accurate and practi
cal knowledge of the entire subject
matter.
Those different systems or apparati,
and subdivisions, aro taken up in their
natural order. By this mnans teach
ers soon learn to analyze for them
selves, and secure order in thsir work.
Next the circulatory apparatus is
considered in a similar manner. Then
tho respiratory apparatus or system.
After that the assiruilatory apparatus
or system. Then the nervous system,
and last tlu sympathetic svstem.
and so, in a short time, tho com
plete subject matter of an en
tire study is analyzed condensed,
scheduled, systematized and indelibly

tangible shape for future use.
Grammar, arithmetic and all the
other branches are similarly presented
aud considered. Never have we be

Kingsville is a very flourishing name,
but guess the city itself is not flourish
ing ua well ; the Proprietor and Post
Master complains very much of not
getting any customers, and that since
the name of the P. O. has been changed
there are very few letters mailed there
and veiy little mail comes to the office.
W. Jenkins, living h.df a mile south
of Kingsville has put up quite a little
store, and is doing very good business,
considering the time it ha3 been run
ning. He says ho is going to Omaha
now soon to buy goods, and then he is
going to quit Blacksmithing. We will
regret his loss as a blacksmith, for
sure he understands how to use the
hammer to a success.
Mr. Plummer from Plattsmouth has
been out in the country visiting his
friends, we were jflad to welcome him.
J. F. Parkins and W. Jenkins have
gone to Omaha on business, and for a
littlo re-creation.
D. M. Lloyd says they have two hun
dred and lifty acres to fall plough,
keep hiin busy wo think.
We notice Dr. A. L. Root flying past
very often, do not wonder at it, for he
is an able physician, and has gained a
reputation as such far and near by the
great work he has performed in the
way of doctoring.
Dayton Root has taken his fair
young bride, aud gone to live in Platts
mouth, and intends painting cars; we
wish him prosperity, success, and hap
piness. We have sabbath school, and preach
ing every sabbath at the Methodist
church house. Mr. Worley is tho pre
siding minister.

Farmers aro very busy fall plowing,

is very dry to plow, it is splendid wea
ther for making hay.
Mr. Hall is digging a cellar, and pre
paring to build this fall. Good for
