the Interior, in refusing t em the

them under guard and excluding all
members of the press. For months
their enemies have haJ free ue f ev

The women weie very reluctant in
testifying as to being outraged. Mrs.
Price held in her hand a pai-kagn of
strvchnine, and declared herselt ready
to take it rather than to have her sto

and wept and implored that the narra
tive of her outrage mijht not be pul
lished. ?he was linaily induced, how
ever, to teil box a Uucotiiphagre Ute
had outraged her. She resisted suc
cessfully his approaches all night, but
the fellow threatened to call in some
of the members of the tribe to assist
him, and so site xielded. Txvo weeks
later, sho was sold tor two ponies to
Jobnson, who kept her for a week,
treating her xveil and offering no vi
lence, until within an hour before the
rescuing par:y arrived, when he out
raged her in the saje lrusli.
Mrs. Meeker wa. outraged by Dou

Last Monday Dr. 11. II. Livingston,
one of the State Fish Commissioners,
informed us that he expected thv oth
er great Moguls of the t'sii Commis
sion to meet iiiu at. Swm.ii lien. I to in
vestigate the feelings and try the tem
per of the young S.ilm -n, jus. hatched
out there ut Mr. I-Iomine's han hery,
and he further coidiaiiy invited us 1j
accompany him to see the fiuuy, funny,
little, big-headed roosters be fort they
are chucked heads and tails into the
cold, cold Republican or some other
stream and streamlets to grow and
furnish food f r nirwi and other t:.-;hes.
Arrived at South liimd xve found ln
uiine on hainl with a big xvagon fail
of cans, his two black coils and well,
some bait.
No Kaley however and no May and
as it had turned cold, n Hale May
xvcather would have been very accept
able. The- Doctor, Romine and oar
self bundled into the xvagon, the colts
gave a snort, the Engine an ezed back
and away xxe rallied over the long
bt idge across the. Platte for Mr. It's
Bpri- gs over in Sarpy County.
Across the bridge and up the Platte
for about a mile and xve rcaca the !ish
ponds, and xve really think one of the
beat natural places for the business xve
ever saw.
what's Til Kit n.
There are now in tie' hatching house
100.000 eggs and young fry in tii
troughs from Mr. It's own fish. About
5,()iK) have been hatched this season
and put in one of the ponds.
Resides these there are the results
of the 230.000 Salmon Spawn, si tit troin
California, all hatched out and shim
ming about. It is to remove them and
distribute them t ii.it the Commission
ers met on Monday. Soon they will
be sporting Ln the head waters of the
pellucid brooks of young Nebraska.
VOWS IS Til E PONDS.
Tlier are. three pwn-U. In iho firs-,
as you may say, are 25.000 nine months
old or yearling (Trout), in the second
8,000 txvoyeai old and in the last about
G.OO0 three year old this hatching time.
These are all of Mr. H's own raising
and he old ones are? I'luin hLs old spring
tin the Cass County side.
The xvho'e business is fed by two
magnificent clear springs that run
txventy-seven cubic inches of Water.
The springs are thirty or forty feel
above the ponds. Hatching hou.-.e
about three hundred yards above pres
ent ponds and the springs about four
rodo above the Hatching house From
the ponds 10 the Platte is about txvo
hundred yatds.
Altogether it is about as good a plant
for the btisim ss as you oft-. 11 find and
fish culture in Nebraska is looming
up deservedly.
Oh, those beauties in the ponds, their
lovely speckled sides as they d;rt af
ter crumbs in tke a fellow ache to have
a fish! The. p nd just seems filled with
them, throw some food in and their
shii.ing, glittering tins and side.- fl i.-h
and dart like llakes of sunlight. Thex
are cunning; too we threw in litib' bi-s
of apple, the trout sprung for om
or two pieces and finding it was not
liver, or sotnet hing that they wanted,
apple had no attraction fr them af
terwards. Wi.h a sigh of regret xve
left the "Speckies" mounted the old
lumber wagon and trotted back to
South 15end. of which more anon.
A most disastrous lire occurred in
Omaha Sunday evening, which result
ed in the almost twtal destruction of
Boyd's Packing House, and the im
mense amount of meats stored therein
amounting to 200,000 in value, and
which after insurance have been de
ducted will still leave Mr. Boxd a loser
to the extent of more lhan 100,000
probably. Omaha, too xviil suiter se
verely, as Mr. Boyd states that unless
some discriminations against the city
in regard to freight, and the lack of
proper water xviks. are removed he
shall not rebuild. Right in this con
t.eiMoti xve should say that we under
stand Fowler Bros., of Chicago, jre
looking through the west, for a suitable
location to erect a packing house, and
why should not Plattstnouth, on the
direct line of a large road, and the bu
siness center of one of the richest coun
ties in tue state, which is feeding a
vet y huge number of hogs nnd cattle,
make :i bid for it. Wake up Plattsmouth
and go in for it. Ilavu't you been

Progress.
The educating proce-s is extending
through the length and breadth of oi.r
land, and ti e better classes of society
are beginning to see the eviis teault
ing from tin iong-praciieed c hUkii of
ofivi ig to New Year's callers the in
evitable glass of x ine. From various
sources we learn the custom is i gin
ning to be grea ly "nonord in the
breach." We clip the following from
a Nexv York letter, published i.t the
Ch icago Stiin la "d :
NO WISH KOiJ Si:"W YEA It's DAT.
The Const tail temperance liiotiser
hood, of Bi -ooki x n, met at the Rink
this xveek' to give re, .oris of toe Tem
perance work in Brortiilx n. Drs. Fnl
.011 and Ctiyler. and Rev. Messrs. Peck
and Conway were appointed to issue
to the people oflSrookhu an urgent
request to serve mo xvine during the
holiday season. A similar resolution
was adop'ed at the in"e!ing of tin
Board of M. ortgers of tfi X auonal
Temperance Society held this week.
This xv is a'-o urged a: the meeting at
Dr. Tax lot's chinch; andit xviil be
pressed s'.rongly 011 the pt-opie in m inv
of the pulpits next S in day. Many
peop e are gox'eruej 111 re by fashion
than principle, and xve are glad to s.iv
that some ladies ainty the leaders of
fashion are urging Ih same thing this
year. These are all hopeful signs.
The following brief extracts are ta
ken from add 1 esses recently delivered
nefv re the American Temperance Un
ion in New Y"rk. Mrs. Peckhaiii cf
California, says:
"Many have contracted tho habit of
drinking ardent spirits from the ab
surd socletv custom observed on .Nexv
Year's day of hospitably pressing re
freshments upon the visitors. In re
gard to tint existence of tiiunkenness
genet ally, eveiy man ought to feel that
he is in a measure responsible for it.
ile cannot say as did the fust born a I
our race. 'am I my brother's keeper.'
The mighty power of the b illot hai
vested in everyone the safety of his
keeping."
"The Rev. Hugh fie. Wilt Miller after
ward addressed the, meeting &n beha.f
of educating tUa young in proper tem
perance principles, and in the coursn
of his remarks said the public ought to
look forxvani to a time when rn:u auJ
g;u and brandy would not ajisL in the
making of our 1 axvs. Ic is a pbi ib.e
spectacle xvlie.; the Vice-President of
Die United Slates takes the oath

when the roams of the National build
ing are turned into biir-room gr-ig.-r
erh's; when Senators reel on the ll or.
It should be decl uvd that a man xvho
g--ts drunk is unfit for public Service."
Facts for Beer Drinkers
The worst results from accidents in
the Loudon hospitals ate said to be to
draym-n. Though thvy are apparently
models of he. ill h and st re.-.gth.yei if one
of iht-in receives an injury, it is nearly
always necessary to amputate in order
to give him the most distant chance
of life. The draymen have the unlimi
ted privilege of the brewery ceiiar.
Sir As ley Cooper xvas once called to a
dray man, xvho xvas a powerful, fresh
colored, beaitiiy-lookiug nun, and had
suffered an injury in his linger, from a
splinter of a stave. The wound, though
trilling, suppuruled. He opened tin
small abscess with his lancet. lie
found, on retiring, he had left his
lancet. Returning f..r it he found
the man in a dying condition. The
man died in a slmr; time. Dr. Gordon
savs: " The moment beer-drinkers are
attacked Wth acute diseases, I hey aie
not able to bear depletion, and die."
Dr. Edxvards says of beer-drinkers:
"Tin ir diseases are alxvays of a dan
gerous character, and, in c is J of acci
dent, they can never undergo even the
most triiling opera. ion with the secttr
i y of the temperate. They almost in
variably die ineler it." Dr. Buchanan
savs: "Malt liqu us render the blood
izy and unfit for circulation; henre,
proceeds obstruction and inflammation
of the lungs. There are fexv great
beer-drinkers xvho are not phthisical,
brought on by tfie glutinous and indi
gestible nature of aie and porter. These
liquors iutlimo the blo!l, and tear
the tender vessels of the lungs to
pieces." Dr. Maxson says: "Intoxica
ting drinks, whether taken in the
form of fermented or distilled liquors,
are very frequent predisposing causes
of disease. The hospitals of Nexv
Yorkshow an equally unfavorable re
cord of intemperance, and private
practitioners every x hero have the
same experience.

Ed. IIehald: It has been sumo
time since we have seen anything from
our little town in your paper; thought
I would drop you a few items. Our
town is, as usual, lively: the street
Hie full from morning until night, xx ith
teams loaded with coru. Corn is cer
tainly king. There are at present 300
feet of ci iti, 12 feet wide and 12 feet
high, full of ear corn, and about half
as much more crib room now building,
besides all the elevators and old store
rooms full of shelled corn; and still it
comes. The question is, what will we
do with the corn? How are we going
to get it to the seaboard? It seems
haid en the Nebraska farmer to have
t give, its he des now, two-fifths of
his corn crop to gat it to Chicago, half
way to Nexv York. But as things are
noxv, he is at the mercy of the monop
olies, and cau only pray. "Oh, Eord,
how long?"
But, enough of this. Now something
about the outlook of our burg. Your
readers all know where it is situated,
but may not know th amount of
country it drains of produce. There
are 30 square miles in a precinct, and
this Station draws trad from 0 pre
cincts; or, in other words, 21G square
miies. or IoS.240 acres. At least tw
tlnnls 01 this can and xvL 1 be cultivat
ed soon."

One of those spells came over us,
xvheu xve read Grant's attack on Gen.
Sherman.. Very few men xvho claim
to be ge-.ith ni in will allow self aggran
dizemeiit to make them guilty of in
grathmle. (Jen. Sherman, with his
usual 111 nlsty, has always spoken in
praise of Grant, as the great general
of the w a 1 ; xvhili he, in our humble
opinion is far Grant's superior in eve
rything but bigoted bulldogism. "I
will fight it out on this line if it takes
me all summer." Compare this, the
slaughter i f pieci'.ms lives at the B it
lie o." th' - Wilderness and Grant's
whole campaign in front of Richmond,

the great chieftain's, "March to the

mav be now and then "blackened chim

mark the lattei's course, these monu
ments xviil detract um litt'e from the
deserved piaise and gratitude the na

ments erected to the sacred memory
of thousands of t he be-t and bravest
xvho were sacrificed butting against
the fortifications of Richmond, xviil

former. No Grant nails in our pocket
