All three tickets are in the field
now; the citizens can judge of their
merits and qualifications. It woa'd be
idle to talk to the men who aid. and
put up, as you maj say, any one of
these tickets. Their minds art made
up, they are presumed leaders in their
parties, and they know how they want
to rote and what objects art behind,
and control their motives and actions.
To them, words are useless; to tht
great mass of voters, to the honest,
quiet citizen at his r her fireside, the
Herald would say a few words. The
object and aim of all poiitic.il action
u to secure better and more equal
forms of government for the city,
county or state; therefore behind each
party represented by their ticket,
there should be some principles.
The men and women on the ticket
may be good enough as individuals,
but if they represent nothing, stand
fr uo i3sues, or for unwise ones,
there can bo no useful thing accom
plished by voting for'them. The ouIt
ticket that does represent a fixed sys
tem of principles on any subject of
importance to the people, is the Re
publican ticket, and therefore, the
Hixald advises those who desire
to accomplish any good to vote for the
Republican nominees to a man.
There is no issue en Greenbackism
in this country now. nor ever likely
to be again; and if there was, a green
back ticket as a county issue, is non
sens. The Democracy have advanced no
new ideas, developed no greater sub
stantial hontsty, have presented noth
ing to the public worthy of acceptance
in years, and the very fact of their
coalition with the G. 15. ticket bhows
that there is no greater, higher aim
and object in their whole political
course than to pet as many oflices as
they can coax the people to rote them
into, on any pretense, and to beat the
Republicans out of all they can so
elect.
That's ail, ai d for th's, we hope no
Republican of any standing, any char
acter, or any desire for the future
welfare of the party, will this year
vote any other than the straight Re
publican ticket.
AxoTHKii newspaper has come to
town, or rather another steersman is
going to try and run the old Watch

calm waters of either tho Greenback
or Democratic roadstead.
.Not to be prolix, or to keep our
readers in misery any longer, we in
form them that Mr. Sherman, former
ly of the Mills countv Journal, hhs
leased the watchman omce, and is
about to publish what lie calls an "In
dependent Democratic paper'
We do not believe our people were
just exactly hankering after three
papers here, and we need two Repub
lican i:ipers just about as much as a
cat does two tail. A strong opposi
tion papv-r edited by a man of aome
ability who would help build up the
town, and had some business sense.
would reallv b a benefit to the com
munity. If he owned his own mater
ial, and could in every sfiiide be Indc
pendent in thought and deed, with dis
crimination enough to criticise fairly,
and in the right place the actions of
public men, ho'dingthe true responsi
ble parties to task for their misdeeds,
such a paper might succeed. Could a
new man do tins, we should say tl6re
was a legitimate opening for a news
paper. The so-called newspapers, that
have been started here under various
disguises of ""Temperance" "Independ
ent or Republican, have never fought
a Democrat, ne' er exposed a public
evil, never advanced a true party is
sue, but have spent aluost their en
tire ammunition, in trying to black
guard the editor of this paper, and in
"busting up the Herald."
That they have not succeeded has
not been for lack of will, but only lack
of brains and means.
If Mr. Sherman follows the beaten
trail of his predecessors in this line,
his paper is short lived. If he has
that within him that insures succes3
and is consciencious ar.d honest in his
views, he may build up a lasting news
paper enterprise; something that is
really an opposition paper.
If it is only a tail to Squire pone
hoe's Greenback kite, he might as well
hang up his shootin' stick at once.
However, here's our friendly0"
Brother Sherman. Keep her wiggling
if you can.
If the remark credited to a New
York paper is true, viz: that the pres
ident dare not remove Collector Rob
inson, for fear of a war with Senator
Miller, jt s a curious commentary
on the late course of the whole so
called half breed faction who in
sisted that Conkling had no right
to object to Robertson, and per con
sequence no other man's appoint
ment . If that theory was correct,
what difference does it make to War

HOW IT WAS DONE.

Washington. Oct. 13 Immediately
after reading the journal a number of ;
nominations were received from the '
president, including among others.
Hannibal Hamlin, minister to bpain;
Walker Blaine, third assistant secre
tary of state; Mark 6. Brewer, assist
ant consul general, Berlin.
Mr. Edmunda called up his resdu-
ution continuing the standing com
mittees as they were constituted. last
session. Adopted yeas 37, nays 35.
Davis of Illinois, and Mahone voting
wiili the republicans.
Mr. Logan offered a resolution for
the election of Davis, of Illinois, for
president pro tem of the senate. .
Pendleton asked that the resolution
lay over one day under the rules. It
wa3 so ordered.
An executive session followed.
When the doors were reopened, Mr.
Pendleton withdrew his objection to
Logan's resolution, and the senate pro
ceeded to its consideration, a vote soon
taken resulting in its adoption. Yeas
G, nays 34, IJayard and Davis of Illi
nois not voting.
On taking the chair Davis said: Sen
ators! The honor just conferred comes
as.did that which I now occupy in this
body, without any expectation on
my part. If it carried any obligations,
I should be constrained to decline this
high compliment. I do not accept it as
a high tribute to my high personal at
tainments, but rather as a recognilb n
of the independent position I have
long occupied in the politics of tho
country. 1 am profoundly grateful for
this mark of confidence, and it shall bo
my endeavor, as it will be my duty, to
administer the trust with impartiality
and with entire fairness. Not having
been trained in parliamentary practice
I shall beg the indulgence of the sen
ate in this lespect, and hope for gener
ous co-operation on all sides. The sen
ate will please come to order.
Mr. Edmunds. I think it not only
my duty but a pleasure to move that
thanks bo expressed to Hon. Thos. F.
Bayard, retiring president pro tem.
Mr. Butl?r (sotto voce). "Sarcasm."
Mr. Edmunds. Not a bit of it. I
move the thanks of the senate be ex
pressed to Hon. Thomas F. Bayard for
the dignity and impartiality with
which lie has presided over this bny
during the short period he has done so.
Low sarcastic laughter on the demo
cratic side. I am sorry to see the sen
r.tas spills I am actually in earnest.
The senator from Delaware came to
the chair under circumstances of ex
citement and tiial, and though his ca
reer has been short, I, as one of his
political adversaries, in all sincerity
wish to express my obligations to him
for the impartiality with which he has
conducted the duties assigned him.
The motion was agreed to.
On motion of Mr. Logan a commit
tee consisting of Bayard and Logan
was appointed by the chair to wait on
the president and announce to hita the
election of Davis as president pro tem.

SINCE our last issue great events
have taken place in Uie Senate at
Washington. Senator Bayard was in
viled to come down and out of the
President's chair and by means of a
Mahone Derrick and some Republican
pulleys, big David pavis was hoisted
up to the position.

is not a Rebel Democrat or a Bourbon
stumbling block in the way of pro
gress; and the great temptation of
some other crazy Guitteau to put Ar
thur out of the way that a Democrat
may be president is hereby removed.
Lorin B. Sessions, so far as the dis
patches toll us aboui tho doings of the
New York convention, failed to be
there to lift up his voice against bad

ing. We miss him a good deal in this
emergency. Woodin, the stepladder

on hand, but he took care to sink his
projects for reform and confine his el

fect confidence in the ability and inr

Thank you, Mr. Gere.
Dr. Gilbert C. Monell, one of the
pioneers of the State and of Omaha, is
dead. He was the father of Mrs. Hitch

cock, formerly LT. S. Senator. In ibr
early dayi of Omaha, Dr. Monell took
a prominent part in all matters per
taining te her growth and prosperity.
Of late years he hud withdrawn al
most entirely from the practice of his
profession and from active business,
and devoted himself to literary pur
suits and study, lie gathered one cf

acts of philanthropy and charity were
many, but so unobtrusive and quiet,
that only new, when he is gene, will

It wm laid down a few months ago
by the Chicago Tribune and the Cin

Civil service reform in fiction.
-If is a significant fact that the Civil
Service Reform agitat'en is beginning
to show itself in iiction. Mrs. Bur

to appear in Tho Century Magazine)
it is said will have hearings upon this
subject. The effect of the present sys
tem upon tho character of "civil ser
vants" is brought out with great
force; and Washington society alto
gether is said to be depicted with a
good deal of subtlety, and with the in
timate knowledge that only comes
with years of residence.
The Century Magazine will also
publish before long a short story, giv
ing both the humorous and tragical
side of the subject.
This has been a bad season for cir

A trapeze performer, died in this city
from the effects of a fall received in
one of her performances. There has
been several railroad accidents to cir

collision, and Louisa Montague, better
known as the " 10,000 Beauty," was
severely injured, her face being badly

Washington, Oct. 13. The Presi
dent's determination to delay sending
ing in cabinot nominations until week
after next has broken all slates, and it
is asserted that he is more embarassed
than has hitherto been supposed. The
rumor that Conkling is to be a mem
ber is renewed and Blaine and his
friends say that the intention to ap
point Conkling has never been aban
doned. A western sena'or said this
evening that hp had felt such an ap
pointment wwuld be npce.-sarily fatal
to the success of the administration,
ami to the future of the party; that
he had gone to the president and pro
tected agaii.ht it. The president list
ened calmly and cour. eou.-dy but did
not indicate in any way his intention.
In reply to a question, the Senator
said Conkling would be confirmed
probably unanimously. There could
be no objection to him on the score
of ability or integrity, bu,t the ap
pointment would nevertheless wreck
the administration.
Senator Mahone said to-day the du
elling funders could be attended to
after the election.
The N. Y. Sun has the following
piece of special news :
Washington, Oct. 4. The attempt
to combine Messrs. Blaine and Conk
ling in the Cabinet of President Ar
thur has fallen to the ground.
Mr. Biaine positively refuses to re
main, lie would uot be 'unwilling to
Berve with Mr. Conkling; but he will
not do anything which will bring him
into any sort of alliance with Grant.
No persuasion can change him as to
this.
It is a fact that when Gen. Garlicll
was lelieyed to be recovering, Mr.
Blaine went to a prominent gentleman
who is friendly with both parties, and
told him that, if Mr. Conkling desired
it, he should be appointed within fif
teen minutes to the vacancy in lha
XTnited States Supreme Court. "You
see," said Mr. Blaine, "that I have
nothing against Conkling; but I am
not going to make him any proposition
and run the risk of his refusing."
No actual change in the Cabinet
will be completed till Congress meets
in December. Windom will not be let
off till then, nor MacVcagh, nor any
f the others. When they have sent in
their regular annual reports, their suc
cessors will be appointed.
Guiteau was brought into thecrirn

answered pot guilty, and asked leave
tp make a stateaient, which the court
declined to hear. District Attorney

The University is now iu complete

the new elective course which w;is

privilege of selecting others which till

up awkwardness, both in speech and

it cultivates a love for reading, of stor
