The trial of Guiteau is progressing
about as usual. There are no startling
particulars and we omit the detailed

A democrat who still advocate all
the heresies, of the old party and for

over the Herald's keeping the name

Miss Claha Loci si Kellogg, the

Sylvester F. Wilson, formerly of
Nebraska has been sentenced in
Philadelphia Pa., to undergo inprig
. onment for one year and pay a fine
of $500 for ticket scalping. The
Judge in sentencing him said: "The
crime of which you have been con
victed is an artificial one and under
ordinary circumstances I would in
flict a light sentence. But after re
peated warnings you have boldly
and defiantly violated the law. I
therefore find it my duty to punish
you to the full extent of the law."
To those deciding upon their sup
ply of readiag matter for the coming
year, we would recommend The
New York Weekly or semi weekly
Times as one of the most excellent
of onr far eastern exchanges. It is
a newspaper well adapted for family
reading, rejecting all advertisements
of lotteries quacks and medical pre
tenders and of all ether agencies by
which the poison of vice is dissemi
nated through society. The terms
for the Weekly are $1.00 per year
and for the Semi-weekly $2.50. Sub

We agree with the Republican on
the liquor question, and would repub

loon keepers who had taken out li- i
censes previous to the operation of'
the Slocumb law wore entitled to gone
consideration and some privilege for
their money; the general sentiment
and usage of tha American people be
ing, to give evsry man and every class
of men a fair show under the law ; but
when they have had ample time to
prepare, and duo notice to obey the
new law, and do not take any steps to
comply with the same, but rather
threaten and bully the community,
then it is time to exercise the strong
arm of the law for peace and justice,
lhe profits and emoluments of the
liquor business are bo great that every
dealer that ought to keep a 'place open
can afford to comply with the new law
as far as the amount of license is con
cerned, and he must in any chance
take his risks on running his business
as to the damago he may do to soci
ety. The old la made him responsi
ble for all the harm, all the neglect of
family ties, all the results of the busi
ness in short, if properly prosecuted;
the new law docs no more.
Men who deal in powder, nitro glyc
eriue, and poisons, are all under the
ban and aegis of the law, for the pio
tectiou of other members of society
not interested in these particular and
peculiar branches of business, and
there is no good excuse why the re
lail liquor business should nut be
placed where it belongs, among the
trades dangerous to a certain extent
to the welfare of society, and regu
lated accordingly. After a long and
acrimonious contest in the Legislature
of Nebraska, the Siocutub law was
passed, not with our consent or ap
proval, for it is toe windy and baggy,
and smacks too muck of the Finch
Demagoguery, to exactly suit us; but
passsed it should be enforced, and any
attempt to nullify it by force, er by
an undue influence over the unthink
ing classes which predominate in
large cities, should be frowned down
by all right thinking citizens. Ws
hops Mayor Boyd will stick to the posi
tion he has now taken and enforce the
law.

THE LATE DR. MACKENZIE.
Dr. R. Shelton Mackenzie, who for
half a century has been known in this
country and abroad as one of our
most indusirious and successtul liter
ary men , died at his home in Phila
delphia on the 31st of November, at
the age of seventy-two. He was bom
in Ireland, but came to New York in
1S53, and made this country nis home.
Since then he has been an indefatiga
ble worker as an author and contribu
tor to the magazines and daily news
papers of New York and Philadelphia.
He was a most agreeable and amiable
geatleman, and a charming compan
ion. His familiarity with literary
history and incidents in the lives of
literary men was remarkable. He
could give place and date with the
greatest promptitude, and supplement
it with anecdote that was always
apropos. To newspaper men ho was
widely known, and was greatly es
teemed and the news of his death was
read with deep regret.
George Law is dead, another old

He was an aspirant for presidential

Last week we pointed out several

we present a few more.
Moore's Rural New Yorker gives a
premium distribution of seeds, as
will be seen by referring to their
prospectus on first page, and then
offers prizes for the greatest yield
from those 'seeds. This with the
Herald premium and the two papers
for $3.50 per year is a pretty big
thing.
The Weekly Inter Ocean offers a
fine selection of books in combina

Gniteaa In Court.
Washington, Dec. 3. Interest in
the Guiteau trial is unabated. After
the examination of two unimportant
witnesses, Emery A. Storrs, of Chica
go was placed on the stand. He had
seen the prisoner several times at the
Republican committee rooms during
the campaign. His impression was
that Guiteau bad an illy-balanced
mind. Upn cross-examination Storrs
said he never saw anything in Guiteau
to indicate he could not distinguish
between right and wrong, or that he
did not know the difference between
guilt or innocence, or that he would
not be responsible for crime.
The evidence created quite a stir in
the court room and seemed to stagger
those about the defense table. The
inter of the prisoner was particularly
affected, niid in tones distinctly caught
by reporters said, "He has perjured
himself, that is all there is about it."
bcoville made a sensation by sum
moning David Davis, speaker Randall,
Senator Bayard and President Arthur;
none of them responded although they
have been subpoenaed. .Scoville then
read a number of newspaper clips
found on the prisoner at the time of
his capture. Guiteau interrupted, say-
there wre a hundred of them whan
arrested, which betook from stalwart,
liberal and half-breed papers, when
ever he saw anything confirming his
inspiration.
While Scoville was reading a clip
ping a stir became noticeable about
the door leading to the witness room,
and in a moment Senator David Davis
was seen going toward the witness
stand and the reading ceased. The
witness was sworn and Scoville pro
ceeded to put questions to him in pol
itical philosophy. Tha Judge was
non-committal on everything and con
tinually demurred to the line of pro
ceedings, .ludkte Davis was excused
after a few moments and for a min
ute occupied a seat 0,1 the bench with
Judge Cox, where he studied the pris
oner's countenance for some time and
then left the court room.
David Davis, in the afternoon tes
timony laid he was not connected witn
either political party of the country.
He had no personal knowledge of a
breach in the Republican party, aris
ing from difficulties between Garfield
and Conkling. He entered neither
caucus, but knew there were factions
in the Republican party. Being asked
what probability there was of these
difficulties disrupting and destroying
the Republican partv, he said, that's a
far-reaching question. The Republi
can party has not been destroyed and
yet there had been breaches in it. The
only way in which it can be destroyed,
if not by disruption, is by the Demo
cratic party. ' It is a mere matter of
opinion whether the difficulties be
tween its faction or branches endanger
its life. The republican party is an
extraordinary organization. I don't
believe it will dio until the Demo
cratic party is dead.
"Do vou think democratic success

: -1 i : . : l i. vi:j
lion wuuiu iijjjjfin 111c icuuiiv;
asked Scoville.
"I don't think success of any polit
ical partv would imperil the republic
I don't believe that at all, or that it
would in any degree tend to bring on
another civil wr. If thern be any it
will come from somewhere else than
from the south."

Lincoln, December 3. The lAn

last evening. It made an assignment
of the books and accounts yesterday
to Brown & Ryan in favor of the em

gage agaiuit it for over 84,000. Thera
is a second mortgage against it for
about $300. the two mortgages
amounting to about the value of the

The Juniata Herald has at last for
mulated its charges against Finch
Moralist and Temperance Lecturer?)
Among other things it accuses him of
writing letters to some "Bit die" other
than Mrs. Finch and of which the fol
lowing are verbatim extracts.
"The character of the letter may be
judged from these (practically verba
tim) extracts;
"You know that I love you, I know
that you love me."
"The laws of the country sav that
wo cannot bo husband and wife. Our
hearts say that we can and are. Now
which is right?"
"You need not fear that I will ox
pose vou I have more at task than
you have."
If any one doubts the accuracy of
these quotations, he has only to test
the memory af Ada Van Pelt, A. H.
Bo wen, Mrs. J. S. Boweii, George
Woodford. Rev. J. Fleming. Henry P.
Rowe, F G. Keens, and others.
So that, in the light of all these

That John is. 1 men is a Itar.
That John B. Finch is a free lover.
That John B. Finch knows these

Beer Driuking Women.
It is a painful truth that many wo
men of whom we would expect better
things are in the habit of drinking
beer and encoui aging their families in
so doing. If there ever was a time
when women needed to take u stand
for the right, it is now when this
question is before the people.
There is no class who suffer from
the results of intemperance so keenly
as do woven, and there few women
who have not some near one entangled
in the meshes of a cruel but clinging
appetite. The public expects and has
a right to expect that women take
the lead in setting up a high standard
of morals before the people. Wo
must admit that great harm comes
from dram-drinking and that it is a
very dangerous practice. It behooves
every thoughtful and well-meaning
women to give this matter serious
thouglit. Wc cannot afford to con
tinue a practice that is in any way cor
rupting or compromising with wrong.
It is very evident that many people
drink because they imagine it gives
them an air of respectability, and to
strip this foul practice of its respecta
bility is what every respectable wo
man should endeavor to do. ,
Effects of Beer Drinking.
BY DR. N. S. DAVIS, CHICAGO'S GREAT
EST AUTHORITY AMONG PHYSICIANS.
When beer is taen in small quan
tities, repeated daily, the individual
usually slowly increases in weight,
not from increase nutrition, but
from retarding the waste and retain
ing the waste longer in the tissues.
Hence, to ii troduce into the living
system any agent that will retard
atomic change is equivalent to retard
ing the phenomena of life, and, if by
retarding the atomic changes, cells or
atoms are retained in the tissues
longer than the natural duration, of
their activity, such retention may in
crease the bulk and weight.'but in the
same ratio it embarrasses the tissues
with the presence of material which
is constantly becoming inert and tend
ing to degeneialion.
Consequently, the individual who
thus increases his bulk and weight by
the taking of just enough of the weak
er alcoholic drinks daily to retard the
processes of secretion and waste, in
the same proportion diminishes his ac
tivity, his ability to resist the effects
of morbid agents of every kind. This
is abundantly illustrated by the thous
ands of beer and wine drinkers, who.
from twenty to twentv-five years of
age were muscular, active, capable of
ny reasonalie endurance, with a
weight of one hundred .and fifty
pounds, but who, after moder.ately re
tarding atomic changes and retaining
old atoms by the daily use of wine or
beer, and have lost their muscular ac
tivity and endurance to such an ex
tent that an active exercise of twenty
minutes would make them puff like a
"heavy horse." It is this sedative ef
fect of alcohol on the organic or mus
cular changes in tissues, retaining
waste and effete matter, that ought to
have been promptly thrown out.
which impairs the vital properties, and
predisposes or prepares i lie system to
yield to morbid intluencrs of any kind
to which it may be exposed. And es
pecially does this sedative effect of al
cohol on the organic changes which
maintained by a moderate and con
tinued use of the 'article, favor those
degenerate changes which result in
tuberculas, caseous, and fatly deposits,
in the lungs, liver, kidneys, heart, and
arteries of the brain, and in mater
ially shortening the duration of life.
Beer cannot be used without injuri
ous effects proportioned to thn quan
tity used and the frequency of its rep
etition. I's use as a remedy in the
treatment of disease can be wholly
dispensed with, without any injury to
the sick.
Strong.
A Kentucky paper puts it this way:
Whisky is the cause of nearly all
crime, disorder and misery.
Strike it out and strikes will end.
Tramp it out and tramps will be
few.
Murder it and murders will cease.
Stab it to the heart and hearts will
no longer be stabbed. Put an ever
lasting end to the mean thing, and
meanness will be the exception In
stead of the rule.
Set tire to it burn the last bottle
and barrel .and fewer souls will burn
in hell.
Away with the cruel curse forever.
This is true, every word of it; it is
to day blighting the brightest pros
pects and withering the finest intel
lects in the land. Genius is a babe,
and mauhood the veriest weakness, ia
the hands of his monster.
Harrison as a Temperance Presideut.
A Pennsylvania lady tells that when
General Harrison was running for
president he stopped at the old Wash
ington House in Chester for dinner.
After dinner was served it was no
ticed that the General pledged his
toast in water and one of the gentle
men from New York, ii. offering, said,
"General, will you net favor me by
drinking a glass of wine?" The Gen
eral refused in a very gentlemanly
manner.
Again he was urged to join in a
glass of wine. This was too nucli. lie
rove from ti e taole, his tall form
erect, and in a in est dignified manner
replied:
"Gentlemen, I have refused twice to
partake of the wine cup. That should
have been sufficient. Though you
press the cup to my lips, not a drop
shall pass the portals. I made a re
solve when I started in life that I
would avoid strong drink,' and I have
never broken it, I am one of a class
of seventeen young men wko gradu
attd and the other sixteen filled
drunkard's graves all through the
pernicious habit of wine drinking. I
owe all my health, happiness and pros
ptrity to that resolution. Will you
urge rue now?"
Probably few know rhat ft temper

days in which General Harrison rjllsd

Speaker Keifer, when the applause '
suotdded wuich greeted his appearance
at tue speakers desk, spoke as follows:
Gentlemen of the lloiibe of Repre
sentatives: I thank you heartily for
this distinguished honor. I will as
sume the power of the high otilcv,
w ill), 1 trust, due diffidence and dis
trust of my wwn ability to meet them
acceptably io you and to the country.
I believe you as a body and as iudi-
viduals will give me hearty support.
1 promise W devote myself faithfully
and assiduously to the work betore '
nie. I invoke you and the country's
charitable juugmeut on all my official
acts. 1 will try to be just to all re
gardless of party or section. Where a
pnncip'e is involved 1 will be found
Kepubiican. but in all other respects 1
note to bo able to act free from party
bias, it is a singular fact that at this
most prosperous time of our nation's
history no party in either branch of
congress has an absolute majority, and
it is therefore peculiarly fortunate
that at no other time since and for
many years prior to the accession of
Abraham Lincoln to the executive
chair, has there been so few unsettled '
vital questions of a national character
in relation to which party lines have
been closely drawn. National pros
periiy is in advauce of any oiher period
in the hstory of our government. The
violence of party spirit has subsided,
and in a great measure many of the j
reasons for its existence are gone, t
While the universal tendency of the ;
people is to sustain and continue to !
build up uuparallelled prosperity, it ;
should be our highest aim to perrna- j
nedtlv promote, and not I) cripple it. i
This congress should be, and 1 pro-
foundly hope it will be, marked pe- !
culiarly as a business congress. It !
may be trutt that additional laws are
yet necessary to give to every citizen
complete protection in the exercise of i
all political rights. With evenly bal
anced party power, with few grounds
for party strife, and no impending
presidential election to distract us
from our purely legislative duties, I
venture to suggest the present as an
auspicious timo to enact laws to guard
against the recurrence of dangers to
our institutions and to insure tian
quility at perilous times in the fu
ture. Again thanking you for the
honor, I am ready to take the pre
scribed oath, and forthwith proceed to
fulfill to the best of my ability the du
ties of the office with which you have
clothed me. Great applause.

Ed. Herald: I guess that goose
bone is all right this time, as we are
liaviug some very nice weather fortius
time of the year. Many of our
farmers are corn husking, most of
thciu say their corn crop turned out
better than they expected.
Festavals and dances, are now in
order.
We were happily surprised ljy a
visit from our old friend and neigh
bor John Linton of Kirwin, Kansas.
John was looking hale and hearty,
and thinks Rocks county compares
favorably with this county in its ear
ly days; said crops suffered much
from drouth this season but thinks
no more than tney uui Here in 4.
John's many friends in old Cass
were glad to sec him and wish him
all the success that pluck, energy
and honesty deserves.
Wm. Armstrong and family from

John Ellington is the happiest

boy. Wc wish them much J03-.
A few cases of diphtheria in a
mild form are reported in this neigh

on the primary fraud question. It
may bean unpleasant duty now after
the battle is over and such a victory
gained, but we will soon have anoth
or of more importance to fight. "In

We could with every honorable" means
guard the purity of our primaries,
the fouutain head of our political
organization. -We cannot expect
pure water to flow from a dirty foun
tain. The executive committee of the
State Farmer's Alliance have under
consideration the question of calling
a meeting at Hastings in Jan. of del
egates from each sub Alliance
throughout the state. Should such
a convention be called, I earnestly
hope that each alliance in Cass and
adjoining counties will be fully and
intelligently represented. I look for
the monopoly question the only live
issue of the day, to be brought more
squarely before the people next fall.
I have long been in hopes of accom
plishing something for the protec
tion of the producers and the solid
industrial interest of our agricultur
al state against the unjust taxation
of R, R, corporation, through the re
publican party, but my hopes which
had grown very weak was nearly, if
not altogether destroyed by my ex
perience at the last republican state
convention, and I wish to say right
here, as one republican who has
voted the republican ticket for twen
ty years served Uncle Sam over four
years to sustain and perpetuate re
