The German citizens of New York
were considerably excited last week
over the arrival of the eight victo
rious American Turners from Frank-fort-on-the-Maine,
where they took
in the international ajnateur gym
nastic athletic tournament. Among
the 400 competitors from England,
France and all parts of Germany,
the representatives as a Turnerbund
carried off a greater part of the
twenty-two prizes given for general
excellence in gymnastics. Before
leaviug for home the U. S. consul
general at Frankfort gave them a
banquet in honor of their victory.
Says an ardent Republican in
writing to us: "I hope the Demo
cratic politicians will be more wise
than the Republicans, and tako
LnigiMire to express their preference
forx . Stsenator, ana men wo -uhu
see" whether it makes no difference
or not. I could almost be tempted
to sustain such a candidate, for the
purpose of administering a rebuke
to the ring."
Our correspondent's republicanism
is undoubted, because he is not of
the number whose business has been
either the holding of office, or the
hunting for office. He believes in
doing things right, and on principle,
and therefore feels like wringing the
necks of those who are responsible
for this thing. It is safe to say that
if every sound republicau in the
state had attended the recent prima
ries, and selected men for delegates
to the state convention who were
known to be on the side of right and
not in the interests of a particular
"slate" as against the wish of the
people, then our friend, who is au
ardent lover of liberty, and the peo
ple s right to rule, would have had
no complaint to make on this score.
We consider that the resolutions
unanimously adopted by the Platte
county convention covered the
whole ground of right in the matter,
tut the probability is that there were
too many aspirants for the legisla
ture and seuate in that convention,
and too many candidates for the U.
S. senate for the good of the party.
The strong probability is that the
republicau majority in the State will
be 20,000. If it were a great deal
less there would be more considera
tion of right principles, and intelli
gent, competent, honest men more
frequently selected as candidates.
Many very curious things happen
in the action of political leaders, so
much .so, that one is often puzzled to
comprehend the motive, or discover
the correct principle involved. The
constitution aud laws of thq State
fully authorise the people of Ne
braska to say by a popular vote
whom they want to represent them
in the Senate of the United States,
and this nomination so mndo by a
popular yote of the people is simply
intended to be submitted to the state
legislature for their approval. It is
intended to relieve the legislature
from the waste of precious time
which should bo devoted strirtlj- to
legitimate legislation in the inter
ests of the State, as well as the cor
rupting influences in tho way of
bargain aud sale which are claimed
to exist to a less or greater extent in
every senatorial contest.
The recent action of the repub
lican state convention in refusing to
place the matter properly before the
people will be difficult for many to
comprehend. But still more puz
zling isjt to a political friend to find
where "this same body of men ob
tained the legal right or any other
authority by which they put in nom
ination a candidate for "contingent"
congressman. No question what
ever was made when this nomination
was proposed to the convention, and
it passed off as quietly as if it had
the sanction of the constitution and
laws of the state to warrant it. Con
sistency is a jewe', to be sure.
The test of the new railroad bridge
at Plattsmouth, which joins the B.
fc M. and C. B. & Q., came off last
week, witnessed by two thousand
people. The test was made by eight
heavy engines of the C. B. & Q. road
passing on to the bridge in sections,
and were afterwards coupled to
gether on the 400 feet eastern span,
makiug the test weight 440 tons, dis
tributed over 320 feet oTf the 6pan,
and tho result proved entirely satis
factory. Tho engines then moved to
the second span, where the trial
gave the same satisfaction and a
photograph was taken at the moment
of the trial, which showed that when
the immense weight of 440 tons was
placed on the spans, the deflection
was only three inches, and when the
engines were removed the bridge
resumed its original position. The
bridge is built of iron and steel, and
3,000 feet long. It has 1440 feet of
an iron viaduct joined to three deck
spans, 200 feet in length. Next to
the Nebraska shore, and over the
river proper, aro two spans, of 400
feet each, all steel truss. The bridge
was constructed by the Keystone
Bridge Co., of Philadelphia, G. S.
Morrison, chief engineer.
Dan. Condon, who captured he
supposed Benders in consequence of
the loose and queer way in which
they have been discharged by the
Kansas authorities, has thereby been
induced to give to the public, thro'
the columns of the Schuyler 2fews
his opinion -of the whole proceed
ings, and condemns the action of the
Kansas authorities in discharging
Bender and his wife in strong and
unmistakable language, and still
believes that they are "part of one
of tho most notorious arfd blood
thirsty gangs which ever infested
this or any portion of God's green
earth."
Richmond, Va., was visited by one
of tho fiercest storms last week ever
known iu that vicinity. Shocliie
creek in the lower part of tho city
was flooded, and the houses and cel
lars filled with water. Citizens in
that part of the city were wandering
about in the water and darkness of
the night to save their friends from
drowning, while their property was
being washed away. Considerable
damage was done to property in
cellars and some damage to property
in the country.
W. S. Hancock's initials seem to
give the Democrats much glory in
that they are also the initials of
"Will Succeed Hayes." That's no

"Won't Succeed Hayes," "Will 8tay
Home," "Won't See Heaven," "Will

"Washington Shuns Him," "Win

VFho lucflcd tlin lt4;lcltion
Editor Journal: I noticed a few
weeks ago in the Journal that
some one said there were more
Democrats iu the Uuion army, than
Republicans, and. then in the next
issue of the ra, Mr. Geo. V. Hines
came out and attempted to prove
that it was the case, with so many
false and foolish remarks that I
considered it not worth notice, and
in fact he wandered oft' on other
things that he thought he was better
posted ou, but iu fact showed his
ignorance in many instances.
In talking with some three or four
democrats of Columbus I find that
ignorance still exists, as they refer
me to that article ot Mr. Ilines's for
proof, law and gospel.
Now, Mr. Editor, I wish to make
a true and correct report as near as
it can be got at.
"As several of the Btates passed
laws allowing their soldiers in the
field to vote, and send home the
ballots aud returns and have them
counted in the state elections, the
soldiers who considered themselves
democrats naturally voted that tick
et. Each party seut canvassers to
collect and return the votes, and
here is a true statement of the votes
polled bv the soldiers in the field at
the elections of 1861,-'62,-'G3 and '64
from tho60 6tates which permitted
their volunteers to exercise the
right of suffrage while iu the mili

The total vote for Republican can

figures, was 226,437, and 41,803, for
the Democratic candidates. This is
the Dest proot that can be furnished
of the politics of the soldiers iu the

Now, Mr II., don't claim that the
Democrats put dowu the Rebellion,
nor don't say which party struck the
first blow against the flag.
One of the Soldiehs.
TIiotc .Sunflower ami Cockle
bUITN,
Mr. Editor: Tho sunflower seems
to be getting so thick in our fields
that some of the latter are almost
ruined now. Farmers ought to tend
to them right away. They ought to
be cut down before the seed ripens,
or, which would be still better, they
ought to be plowed under, thus fur
uishiug a large amount of manure.
A good 6Hlky plow will turn them
under nicely, or if you have not that
attach a chain to your walking plow,
and turn them under. But whether
cut down or plowed under, either
ought to be doue before the seed
ripens.
Going from Platte Centre to Co
lumbus a few days ago the writer
was 6truck not only by the immense
fields of sunflowers, but by some
thing even a great deal worse. I
noticed some corn fields so full of
cockleburra that I am sure more
burrs will grow there than kernels
of corn. If not cut down now they
will ripen and then attach them
selves to the legs and tails of cattle,
sheep, horses, hogs, and be carried
and sowed all over the country.
Farmers who care so little for their
own aud the country's welfare as to
let such crops grow, ought to be
placed under guardianship. Cut
them dowu at once, before they get
ripe. It will pay you a groat deal
better than some other work, I may
say better than anything else you
can do.

Little Willie Norman, oldest son
of Mr. and Mr6. George Norman,
who have been residents of Hastings
for the past two years but now live
in Franklin county, met with a fatal
accident one week ago last Friday.
He was riding a horse hitched to a

the rake, where he was caught by
two of the rake teeth which pierced
through his side. Medical aid was
of no avail, and lour days later,
