A Mliglit DiiTercncc.
Editor Journal: Iu a late issue"
you argue very reasonably iu oppo'
silion to instructing our delegates to
the Republicau National Convention.
As a rule your plan may do seud
"ood, able and true men, aud let
thcrrjs)took alter the interests of the
party. But do you not do the very
thing you seem to oppose? Do you
uot attempt to forestall the ackiou of
the State Convention, and work up
public opinion to secure instructions
in favor of Mr. Blaine. And here
the difference comes in. You be
lieve a large majority of Nebraska
Republicans want to see Blaine nom
inated. Now I beg leave to differ.
After admitting your better oppor
tunity of learning the opinions of
the people, yet I think that in this
case you are mistaken. I have
scarcely heard a Republicau mention
the subject, for the last four years,
but was in favor of Grant, aud near
ly all soldiers of all parties favor
him. It is not so much a personal
preference but a question of success.
Can an eastern man be elected ? I
don't believe any man east of New
York can be elected iu 18S0. The
indications seem to be that the next
president must come from Illinois.
The Democracy already recognize
that fact, and are casting about for
an Illinois candidate. Indeed I
think both candidates will come
from Illinois. I have no doubt that
Graut will be the nominee of the
Chicago convention, and the next
president. I hope and believe that
our delegates to Chicago will be
instructed to support Grant all the
lime. Thcro are no fcara about the
electoral vote of Nebraska for any
man that may bo nominated, but wo
cannot rely on a solid north for any
man. Wo ought to put the north
beyond doubt and secure part of the
south. I believe, aud I think the
majority of Nebraska Republicans
believe, that Grant is the only can
didate that can do it. We cannot
depend on a fair election, nor a fair
count. Judging of the future from
the past, we can look for nothing but
treachery, deceit, fraud, bribery, in
timidation, murder, and iu the end
an attempt at open revolution. If
such is the fact, we want a candidate
who can not only carry the Republi
can states with fair-play, but one
who can create such a storm of en
thusiasm and confidence as will
resist and overcome the fraud and
violence and even prevent it. Grant
is the only man. There i3 no doubt
of his nomination and election, but
let it be with such unanimity and
enthusiasm as to laugh at fraud and
violence, and to defy it.
If we beat them this time, the bat
tle (on this line), is, practically, over,
and the fruits of the war and the
constitutional amendments are per
manently secured; but if we lose,
all is lost, or we have the war to
fight all over again. The stake is
too great to take any chances.
I have nothing to say against any
man mentioned as a candidate. They
are all good men and would proba
bly make good presidents and honor
the office. I could and will cheer
fully vote for any of them, if nom
inated. Grant men do not malign Blaine.
He is an able and true man, and too
patriotic to accept the nomination at
the risk of defeat for the part. In
whatever position he enters this con
test we shall see him in the front of
the battle, as usual. But can we
spare him from the senate? I sho'd
like to see him on the ticket as vice
president. S. M. E.
In this issue wo publish a call for
a meeting of the republican slate
central committee to be held at the
Commercial hotel in Lincoln on
Thursday, the 8th day of April,1880,
at 2 o'clock P. M. The time and
place of holding the republican state
convention will be proper subjects
for the consideration of this com
mittee. As we have heretofore urg
ed the convenience and propriety
of holding the-State republican con
vention iu this city, wo need now
nly refer to the subject to remind
the members of the committee of
the central location of Columbus
and the fact that she has not,
hb yet, been honored with a state
republican convention, and it ap
pears to us that members of the
committee will only have to sug
gest the matter in session, to receive'
a favorable response.
A man wearing a cross and rosary
which proclaimed him to be a
clergyman, was found the other day
on the streets of Omaha very drunk.
He was taken from his prostrate
condition to the city cooler, aud the
next morning brought before the
police judge on the chargo of in
toxication. He received a severe
reprimand from the judge, who
discharged him on condition that
he immediately leave the city. He
gave his name as Father Mamus,
and was a pitiful sight to behold,
trembliug and shaking from the
effects of the liquor.
J. W. Walker, a citizen of Omaha
on Monday night of last week,while
on his road home in the viciuity of
the military bridgo,in north Omaha,
was suddenly felled to the ground
by a slung shot, which struck him on
the back of the head, and while
prostrated was robbed of $400. He
bad a $20 bill in his vest pocket,
which tbe robbers failed to get He
saw but one man when he was
knocked down, but two men were
engaged in tbe robbery.
A ICcvIeW oi "Tim Other Side

Ed. Journal : Your correspond
ent, Breeder, has fallen into some
errors, which I wish tt correct. In
the first place he frays "why is it that
so mauy iu Platte county have gone
into .sheep, and then as fast as they
could, have gone out again?" The
county statistics show that outside
of two or three Hocks, very lew of
our citizens have been engaged iu
sheep raising; that more of them
have not, has donbtlcss been owing
to some of the many causes andan
uoyances to which he refers, but
uuder our herd law if a man wishes
to raise either sheep or cattle, he
must fence or herd them ; conse
quently a few sheep will not pay
unless within an enclosure where
their natural propensity to browse
can not be indulged at the expense
of trees or valuablo crops, but this
can be remedied by several neigh
bors combining their flocks during
the grazing season, and employing a
herder to take chargo of them, the
same as is done with cattle. That
sheep iu Nebraska are subject to but
few diseases is the testimony of all
who .have taken the pains to inquire
into the matter. Foot-rot is un
known ; scab prevails in many places
where a sufficient amount of care hap
not beeu taken for its prevention and
cure and has often been spread thro
parsimony in the purchase aud in
troduction of diseased sheep iuto
flocks.because they were low priced ;
abortion in sheep sometimes occurs,
but uot so frequently as in cattle,
aud if at times they will not own
their lambs, it requires only the
exercise of a little patience and
common souse to overcomo thi..
Again he says that if everybody
wont into sheep the market would
be spoiled, but everybody cannot go
into sheep raising; but while the
demand for wool is so largely in ex
cess of the supply there is no catise
for alarm on this score. The .pro
duction of wheat is largely overdone
some seasons, but this does not de
ter farmers from continuing its
growth: on the contrary we find
that those who continue on the even
tenor of their way, not running into
extremes, do in the end acquire a
competence. That capitalists can go
into the sheep business to more ad
vantage than others, none will deny,
but that the profit is exclusively
with them is not so clear, aud I can
not do better than quote from one of
the highest authorities on sheep cul
ture in the U.S. on this point: "The
growth of wool is peculiarly adapted
to the pecuniary means and the cir
cumstances of a portion of our rural
population. Their capital is mostly
in land. Hired labor is costly.
Sheep husbandry will render all
their cleared land profitably pro
ductive at a less annual expenditure
for labor than any other branch of
farming. By reason of the rapid in
orease of sheep, and the groat facility
of promptly improviug inferior ones
they will stock a farm well, more
expeditiously, and with far less
outlay, than other animals. Aud
lastly, the ordinary processes and
manipulations of sheep husbandry
are simple and readily acquired. On
no other domestic animal is the haz
ard of loss by death so small. It is
as healthy and hardy as other ani
mals, and unlike all the other?, it
decQiitly managed a good sheep can
never die in the debt of man. If it
dies at birth, it has consumed noth
ing. If it dies the first winter, its
wool will pay for its consumption
up to that period. If it lives to be
sheared once, it brings its owner
into debt to it, and if the ordinary
and natural course of wool produc
tion and breeding goes on, that in
debtedness will increase uniformly
and with accelerating rapidity until
the day of its death. If the horse or
steer die at three or four years old
or the cow before breeding, the loss
is almost a total one." In conclusion
I would say that if "Breeder" thinks
so poorly of sheep raising as he pro
fesses to do he would uot stand on
$9.99 as his price per head, but
would part with them speedily at
market rates, that those whom he
looks upon as infatuated might have
a chance to buy their experience
also. A Farmer.
The B. & M. and U. P. had a fight
the other day at Omaha with engines
and freight cars. The B. & M. to
secure a connection with the Omaha
& Northern Nebraska road by cross
ing the U. P. shop rails on the bot
tom and the U. P., to prevent it,
pushed down a lot of box cars and
run the B. & M. cars abouta car's
length. The fight ended in the
granting of two injunctions, forbid
ding the U. P. from interfering with
the B. & M. road, aud restraining
the B. & M. from crossing the U. P.
track. A similar struggle is also
reported at Lincoln.
The Police Judge of San Fran
cisco sentenced Denis Kearney on
the lfith to six months imprison
ment in the house of correction, and
to pay a fiue of $1,000, on a charge
of using vulgar and threatening
language calculated to disturb the
peace. His case has been taken to
the supreme court, and he has been
released on $3,000 bail.
A mob of one hundred masked
men overpowered the guards and

James Padgett.
