the editor of the Ilcrald there in
regard to President Garfield, com
paring him with Guitean, and 6aying
that tho latter was as honorablo as
the former and much less dangerous
to the country. A crowd of men
irrespective of politics, met and

manifestation of public sentiment.
The State Fair.
All arrangements are nearly com
pleted, and Nebraska, this year, at

be set upon the tower polo in the
center of the speed ring.
A terrible tornado visited tho
coast of the Southern States on the
Atlantic Ocean on August 27. Great
damage has been done, and a great
many lives lost. At Bcauford, S. C,
the damage is considerable, and forty
colored people who had gathered in
a ferry house for safety, were swept
away and drowned. At Charleston,
S. C, tho damage is not so bad, but
several vessels and a light-house
were swept away from their moor
ings. The beautiful trees and many
of the finest buildings in Savannah
were leveled to the ground. Sever
al were killed and drowned, and the
loss is over $100,000. In all there
were upwards of 100 people drown
ed and a largo number rendered
homeless.
John C. Neil, an insane man of
Chicago started out from his lodg
ing houso' at 1 a. m., Sept. 2d, and
shot fivo men, one at least fatally,
and then was shot himself by a
policeman. This brief record from
tho Inter Ocean, a mere statement
of what any insane man might at
tempt, is about a3 good an argument
as could be adduced to show that
our methods of caring for the
"cranks," arc radically wrong, and
ought to be changed. He who fur
nishes for civilized communities a
just, humane and reasonable method
of dealing with peoplo of unsound
mind, so as to provent (as much as
human action cau prevent) such
occurrences hb tho above, will be
hailod as a public benefactor.
Horrible ITInswicro.
The dailies of Monday aro filled
with dispatches and conjectures con
cerning the massacre of Gen. Carr
and his entire command including
himself, six other officers and sixty
four enlisted men, by the Apache
Indians on tho eastern border of
Arizona, on Thursday last. The
White Mountain Apache6, who can
muster 400 braves aro tho only In
dians known to be concerned in the
outbreak. Mills' Indian scouts, who
were with Carr's command, turned
upon him and began the attack,
which was finished by the others.
The latest telegrams indicate tho
horrible possibility that Ft. Apache
had been taken, and that the wives
of the officers of the Ninth regiment
had fallen into the clutches of the
brutal savages.

The PrcMldent.
It has been decided to remove the
President to Long Branch on account
of malaria, evidences of which had
been visible for soveral days in the
President's condition. The truth
seems to be that he has no chance
for his life in 6uch atmosphere as
comes to him from the region be
tween tho Executive mansion
grounds and Long Bridge.
Before the Jourval will have
reached its readers the probability
is that the President will be on the
way to Long Branch. All arrange
ments had not been made, but, with
out change of bed, he will be placed
in a car specially prepared for his
comfort and the convenience of his
attendants, the engine to be placed
behind the cars to prevent disturb
ance by smoke, and no fuel to be
used except anthracite.
In the judgment of the surgeons
the President has been gaining
ground a little. The wound remains
unchanged. The swelling of the
parotid gland is decreasing.
THE HEATED TE2UI.
Wlia t It Amount to, Eot.
Numerous are the sections of
country that are suffering from the
long-continued dry weather.
A Cincinnati dispatch says no rain
has fallen since Juno, and the whole
section from thore to Alabama is
parched.
At Mattoon, 111., water is sold at
$1 a barrel. No rain since June 30.
September 1st, at Ottawa, bu3h
fires wore reported on all sides. On
the 3d the damage was estimated at
$150,000 sixty families homeless.
At Toronto, the fires were rapid
ly extending along the borders of
the timbered country, and a high
wind was fanning the flames. Thir
ty cases were already reported of
farmers having their entire crops
and buildings burned. An old sick
man was carried out of a burning
house a considerable distance and
placed in charge of two little girls.
Shortly afterwards those fighting
the firo found him dead and the
childrcu missing. It is beliovcd
they perished.
At Belleville, Bostin, Sterling
Madoc and Bracebridge there is
great destruction. At the latter
place two children were lost in the
llames.
From Mil ford, Pa., it was report
ed that forest fires wero breaking
out all along tho Delaware valley,
aud that the sun was entirely ob
scured by the smoke. No rain of
any account had fallou siuce the 9th
of July.
From Trenton, N. J., tho story is
told in these words: "Crops and
cattle aro suffering from tho drought,
which extends the wholo length and
breadth of the State. Tho Blue
Mountains of New Jersey are blaz
ing for miles. Dense smoke ob
scures tho sun, and tho heat is in
tense. In the northern part of
Hudson County, where the water
supply is entirely derived from
wells, the residents are compelled to
cart water from Jersey City and
Hoboken, and arc paying as high as
$10 per load. The North Hudson
County Railroad Company, who
havo about GOO horses at West Ho
boken, cart all their water in large
iron tanks.
Burlington County reports the
Delaware river and all the streams
uncommonly low. Wells, cisterns,
and springs afford barely enough
water for family use. Corn crops
and pastures are burning up. Not
even a vestige of green can be seen
in many fields."
At Buffalo, N. Y., the drought is
very severe and crops very poor.
At Fredericksburg, Va., no rain
for three months, no food for cattle,
and in some cases people travel
thirty miles. On the Upper Rappa
hannock water is hauled from the
river for household use.
At Olean, N. Y., about forty oil
rigs were burned and 10,000 barrels
of oil destroyed. Several of the
large 25,000 bsrrel tanks wero in im
minent danger at ono time, but the
labor of 1,000 men who worked all
night saved them.
One thousand wells bad shut down
for the lack of water to run tho en
gines, no rains having fallen until
last night for several weeks. Tho
rain of last night will aid them but
little, but was a God-send to the
farmers whose fiolds wero almost
barren.
The Cattle DiHcasc.
The greatest material interest in
Nebraska, that in which most mon
ey is invested, is cattle. The Lin
coln Journal of Aug. 30th contains
a paragraph that will be of absorb
ing interest to those in Nebraska
who havo from one hundred to one
hundred thousand dollars invested
in cattle.
The dreaded anthrax has broken
out in the herds of Ed. and Jno.
Franklin, about three miles south
of Lincoln ; McBrido & Druso on
Sunday week notified their patrons
that the dauger was so great that
thoy did not feel justified in taking
their cattle oni any longer.
We give what the Journal has to
say of tho particulars in the case,
that our stock readers may be in
formed of what may possibly prove
a very serious matter :
'So far the ravages of the disease
have been confined to tho herd men
tioned, out of which sixteen cows
have died in the past four days, and
about an equal number were sick
yestorday afternoon. Dr. Thomas,
the veterinary surgeon, is in atten
dance. Though wo have not seen
that gentleman, we learn that the
disease is held to be that dreaded
anthrax, caused by a virulent poison
which causes the formation of im
mense tumors or carbuncles, and
seldom fails to prove fatal, though
in this case the poisoning may be
induced from water poisoned by the
carcasses of hogs and horses that
have Iain and rotted on the ground
frequented by the herd. The dis
ease runs its coarse in a few hours,
cows affected in tho forenoon sel
dom living until night. The brute
suffers from a violent fever, the flow
of milk at once stops, and thirst is
intense.
The view that the fever is pro
duced by local unhealthy causes, is
borno out by the fact that another
herd belonging to the Franklin
brothers, but kept apart all summer
from these has not been affected,
nor have other herds in the imme
diate vicinity.
It is to bo hoped that the des
tructive fever will be stamped out
or at least confined to its present
limits.
Persons in the city owning cows
will find corn fodder in liberal quan
tity (with tho ears left on), plenty of
bran and all the pure, fresh water
the animals nan drink, to be the best
course of treatment that can be
adopted as a safeguard agaiust lia
bility to contagion.'
Tho Globe of the 31st says that
twenty-five have died ; that the
course of the disease is very rapid,
and is sometimes run in a few hours ;
that at the first appearance of sick
ness, the animal should bo removed
aud kept separated till the danger
is past. It remark also that "it is
possible the epidemic is duo to
drinking water polluted by tho car
casses of two horses and a score or
more of hogs.
From the Journal of the 3d, wo
add :
Mr. Meyer, who lives betwoen the
city and the re-union grounds, is the
latest sufferer by reason of the dis
ease which has proved so fatal to
many of the cows in this section of
the country. One week ago he had
six very fine cows, and last night
only one of them was alive, and that
one not expected to livo through the
night.

Yellow fever is reported at Mar
tinibuc and Demorara.
The U. S. debt statement for Aug.
is expected to show a reduction of
about $14,000,000.
Of the 3G0 patients at tho county
poor house at Chicago, seventy have
typhoid fever. Investigation into
the causes has begun.
The French loss in the affair with
the Arabs at Sowski, is stated to be
fifteen killed and no wounded.
Arabs lost 400 killed and wounded.
- Alf Ilargelt, train dispatcher of
the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton
railroad, was Aug. 30th found dead
in his room with a pistol ball iu his
head, and a pistol in his hand.
The drouth continues unabated in
Kentucky, and prospects for stock
are growing worse every day. A
good fall crop of grass with mild
weather would do much to relieve
the pressure.
A special from Clinlonville, Wis.,
says the situation at Kistcha re-'
mained the same as on the 2Sth ult.
The report that Indian Agent Ste
phens and daughter were prisoneis
is false. Thoy were surrounded by
faithful friendly Indians.
Sept. 1st, at Independence, O., the
north-bound express on the Balti
more fc Ohio ran into an excursion
train, which was standing on the
main track, badly wrecking both
trains, killing an unknown bootblack
and injuring several others.
The police arrested last week an
other crank at the White House
gate. It was a poor colored man,
manifestly insane. He was bent
upon the mission of killing every
man who was not a Garfield man,
aud he had a large tin can iuto which
he proposed to place their heads.
In Ontario tho drouth is causing
much loss. Pastures have suffered
and root crops are endangered. In
western counties particularly corn
is suffering severely. The earth is
baked, streams and wells are dry
and farmers arc obliged to go seven
miles for water. Bush fires are
doing widespread damage.
Examination of Howgato's affairs
continues. It has been shown that
the embezzlement will exceed $200,
000. It is now $70,000 and the iu
quiry is yet unfinished. Howgate
left a week ago Monday. Nothing
has boon hoard of him since, even
by his family which ho left without
a dollar. It is supposed he jumped
tho country with his mistress.
On the morning of tho 31st ult., at
Chicago, James B. Duncan shot 'and
killed a compositor on a morning
paper named Thomas II. Lowroy,
who boarded with Duncan and was
accused of improper relations with
Mrs. Duncan. The room where the
tragedy occurred bore marks of a
bloody fight between the men. Dun
can ha3 been arrested but refuses to
talk.
The low lands in Lancashire wero
flooded by rains Aug. 30th. Similar
reports come from Cheshire, where
almost the entire crop is still on tho
ground. Rain that fell around Dar
lingtou is estimated at 150 tons per
acre, iu eighteen hours. In the East
Riding of Yorkshire, oats and bar
ley sheaves were standing in pools.
The same reports come from nearly
all parts.
The residences of II. A. Griswald
and A. C. Ilapson at White Hall, N.
Y., were entered by burglars Aug.
29th and valuables amounting to
$2,000 taken. Two suspicious look
ing men boarded a train bound south
and an order was telegraphed for
their arrest at Mechanicsville. Two
officers, in attempting to do 60, shot
one fatally. The silver, jewelry,
watches, etc., were found on the
train.
Dispatches state the steamer Teu
ton was wrecked near Union Point,
and had 147 passengers and eighty
in this crew. Tho vessel struck a
rock but floated off and was putting
back to port when she sank. The
majority perished. All officers were
drowned. A Capetown correspon
dent says three boats were lowered.
Another Capetown dispatch says
the Teuton's boats, which arrived at
Simonstown, lay on their oars until
daylight, but nothing could be seen,
and it is feared the third boat, with
fifteen women and children, is lost.
The captain struggled in the water
sometime but finally sank.
The Doastc Eair.
There has been much talk by cer
tain newspapers of the state, against
a law passed by the last legislature
that is vory moderate, just and wise
in its provisions against discrimina
tion, secret rates and rebatos and for
fixing a maximum standard of
freight charges.
It strikes us that if tho railroad
companies will accept it as an ex
pression of good will towards them
by, the people of the state (which it
nndoubtcdly is), it will be raoro to
their lutercst than by antagonizing a
fair-minded people, to rouse them to
resentment, resulting in acts of re
taliation, more or less unjust to the
railroads, in all which thero is no
good senso. Moderate viaws of
fair-minded men, well approvod by
their constituents and incorporated
into law should not be idly regarded
by the companies. Every intorest
in a civil community has its duo
metes and bounds, in the determina
tion of which the people's voice is
sovereign. In this and in all similar
cases let there bo no appeal, neither
any necessity for appeal to the con
test of brute force.
The Nebraska Eaimei', in a recont
article has these very sensiblo re
marks upon this question :
"The act passed by the last Legis
lature, if enforced by the railroad
companies in the spirit iu which it
was enacted, would havo been a ben
efit to them. It prevented them
from making special rates to obse
quious parties a meaeuro that
would have put money in their com
pany treasury if it was enforced.
When special rates were asked, in
consideration of imaginary services,
the genoral freight agent could point
to the act for an answer, and no
other would be necessary.
Let us be fair with each other both
the railroads and tho people, and not
attempt to put a false construction
upon a law that if obeyed according
to tho spirit would be beneficial' to
both the railroads and the people."
