A Cor. ot the St. Louis Globe
Democrat thus docs up eotuc of Ne
braska's most famous politicians:
Nebraska politicians are faring
quite hauiKoraely at the hands of
the new Administration. Three
Postmasters have already been ap
pointed and confirmed, two other
gentlemen have by this time receiv
ed their commission as officers of the
Government Land Offices and ouc
as Indian AjfuS. By the way, this
yotiug State has succeeded in turn
ing looae Into Uncle Sam's pasture
quite a number of political colts out
side of the State. The following
occur to me uow as I write: Lleury
M". Atkinson, Surveyor General of
New Mexico, who has at least three
Nebraska gentlemen in his employ ;
Johu J. Gosper, Secretary of the
Territory of Arizona; ox-Governor
James and Judge Sweet, Land Office
in Washington Territory ; Nato Por
ter and C. II. Gould, Land Office,
Miles City, Montana; W. H. II.
Llewellyn, Agent Mescalero In
dians, Mcscalero Agency, N. M.,
who has two Nebraskaus holding
positions under him ; 15. II. Dirrows,
Consul to Dublin; N. K. Griggs,
Consul to Chcmnit7, Germany; O.
II. Irish, Bureau of Printing, "Wash
ington ; T. C. Tipton, in Government
employ at Bristol, Euglau d ; ex
Governor Furnas, now in California
as member of Agricultural Commis
sion; G. F. Blanchard, J. S. Collins,
J. W. Paddock, S. T. Cole, and oth
ers, post and Indian traders in the
Territories; Judge Pcabody, Pen
sion Agent ; E. C. Rogers died in
Vera Cruz, Mexico, where he was
Consul ; II. S. Kaley had been ap
pointed and confirmed to the Con
sulship of Chemnitz, but died before
he could assume the duties of his
position ; Gen. John M. Thayer was
Governor of Wyoming a number of
years, and IIou. Church Howe was
Marshal of the same Territory ; B.
F. Pottingcr and Judge J. F. Iviuuey
have held government positions in
Utah; J. C. Myers was Consul to
Shanghai until he had an uupleis-
autnoss with Fred So ward, and a
dazn other politicians of the State
have been at various times in one
part of the globe or another as rep
resentatives of theNtara and stripes,
to say nothing of the small army of
clerks in departments at Washington,
and in the pension, postal, revenue
and Indian serrice. Verily, Ne
braska has fed to considerable ex
tent at the Federal crib. Senator
Kellogg, of Louisiana, and ex-Senator
Spencer, of Georgia, were Ne
braskaus in the old Territorial days.
The former gentleman takes consid
erable plcasuro in saying that when
he first entered the Senate ho shook
hanks with Messrs. Thayer and
Tipton, of Xobrakn, fttitl Sponcor of
Georgia, and, before his term ex
pired, with Senator Hitchcock, and
when ho returned the second time
found Senators Paddock and Saun
ders members of that body, all ot
whom he was associated with in
Nebraska, and all of whom boarded
in the old Ilerudon House, in Oma
ha, together. When Kellogg was
here, he was Territorial Judgo under
appointment of Abraham Lincoln.
Saunders was Governor; Paddock,
Secretary ; Hitchcock, United States
Marshal ; Thayer, Colonel of the 1st
Nebraska Uegimeut, ami Tipton,
Captain of a company in the same
regiment. They with Spcucer, all
brought up in the Uuitcd States Seu
ato within fifteen years. These
prairie Territories, Nebraska, Kan
sas, Minnesota, and Iowa, have been
quite prolific in production of ready
made statesmen.
Ex-Senator Thayer how resides at
Grand Islaud, this State, where ho
has a contract for delivering Gov
ernment freight to certain pools.
He is believed to be in training for
the Senatorial race in January, 1SSIJ,
to succeed Saunders. Ex-Senator
Tipton resides in Brownville, and is
engaged iu no business. He preaches
and lectures occasionally. In the
last State campaign he was a candi
date for Governor on the Democrat
ic ticket. He is, politically, a dead
duck. Ex-Senator Hitchcock died
a few months ago. Ex-Sonator Pad
dock resides in Beatrice, where he
has time and opportunity to reflect
upon the uucertaiutios of politics
and tho beauties of agriculture.
Both the present Nebraska Sena
tors were Garfield adherents, and
can not by auy means be denomina
ted Stalwarts at the present time
and there is considerable speculation
as to what influence they will have
with Mr. Arthur. Some of the
"scooped" Graut "men are quietly
smiling to themselves at the predic
ament tho senior Senator (Sxuudcrs)
finds himself in. It was he who had
the car of President Hayes during
tho past four years, and well-uigh
controlled the patronage of the State
during that period. Mr. Saunders'
vote decided the New York Custom
House squabble of four years ago,
and that decision ousted Mr. Arthur.
It now remains to be seen whether
Mr. Arthur has forgotten the part
enacted by our senior Senator in
that contest. To say the least, the
said 6cnior Senator evidences some
embarrassmeut over the recent awk
ward shaping of events, and stands
on his good behavior.
Hi." Hopliip.
At nil times and under all circum
stances the greatest economy should
be practiced in the mauagemont of
tho farm; in times of high prices
like the present, the matter presents
itself forcibly; when products are
chcRp, the sheet balances on the
wrong side without it. We were
placed under a conviction of Our
christian duly to call attention to
this matter while passing a pen of
hogs in the recent 6torm they were
wallowing around belly deep iu the
mud, with no other bed to lay iu and
no cover to shelter them.
I do not expect to make much im
pression on your sympathy for the
hog. A hog has been considered
nothiug but a hog so long that they
arc lost sight of, when this emotion
is called into action, but the averago
man is keenly sensitive to anything
that affects his pocket ; it is through
this medium that I expect to elevate
the condition of the hog.
It does not take a very scientific
tnau to understand that it requires
more feed to sustain animal lite iu
cold weather than in warm, and it
requires no greater order of taleut
to muster the fact that hogs thrive
better in comfortable quarters than
if forced to wallow and sleep in
such filth. Good close pens are as
profitable an investment on the larm
as good stables for cattle and horses.
Tho time was when it was as neces
sary to breed hogs with reference to
speed and eudurauce as horses;
those were the days before railroads
wero built, when they had to bo
driven across the Alleghanies to find
a market. In those days the close
pen system was not a success, exer
cise was one of the chief requisites
in developing traveling qualities,
and too much flesh was not desira
ble. That was before the days of
Poland Chinas, Chester Whites ami
Berkshires, but conditions have
changed ; now the hog rides to mar
ket like a gentleman ; it has become
more fashionable and is more profit
able to breed him with greater ref
erence to diguity his form should
be alderumnic. The hog of the
period is short legged, short nosed,
heavy bodied, round barrelled, and
when ready to go into society "on
the market," should be exceedingly
jdump and fat. Close pens for hogs
are what boardiug schools are for
girls, they are the most approved
places to fit them for the market.
With the present price of corn
hogs can profitably be fed only
with the most approved care.
Ground teed, while undoubtedly the
best, is not the most profitable, con
sidering the fact that one bushel out
of every ix is charged for grinding,
better let the hogs do their own
grinding, that is the only labor they
are willing to do successfully ; it is
profitable however, to soak the corn
for them, it renders it more easily
masticated and easily digested. It
is better to save labor for the hogs
when it can be done without much
expense. Hard corn is apt to make
their teeth sore, and as a result they
cat less aud fatten slowly. They
should be salted regularly, it helps
their appetite. They should be fed
all they will cat clean, aud made
ready tor the market before the se
vere cold weather sets in.
Much as has been said of his hog
gishncss, he is the most generous iu
his return for liberal treatment of
any of the domestic animals. C. .
Walker, in Xebraska Farmer.
Having a Competency.
I havo a neighbor who is always
so busy that he has no time to laugh ;
the whole business of his life is to
get money, more money that he may
still get more. Ho is still drudging,
saying that Solomon says, "The dil
gent hand makcth rich." And it is
true, iudeed, but he considers nut
that it is iu the power of riches to
make a man happy, for it was wisely
said by a man of great observation :
"That there be as many miseries be
yond riches as on this sido of them."
And yet, heaven dclivor us from
pinching poverty and grant that,
having a competency, we may bo
content and thankful.
Let us not repine, or so much as
think the gifts of God unequally
dealt, if we see another abound iu
riches when, as God knows, tho
cares that are the keys that keep
those riches hang often so heavily at
the rich man's girdle that they clog
him with weary days and restless
nights, eveu where others sleep
quietly. We see but the outsido of
the rich man's happiness ; few con
sider him to be like the silk-worm,
that, when 6ho seems to play, is at
tho same time spinning her own
bowels and consuming herself. And
this many rich men do, loading
themselves with corroding cares to
keep what they have already got.
Let us, therefore, be thankful for
health aud competence, aud, above
all, for a conscience.
A Crunlc, Who Threaten to
Shoot Judc Duntly.
Last week iu the United States
court at Omaha, Judge Duu
dy decided a case against a party in
Saunders county where the U. P. R.
R. was a party. The unfortunate
defendant i3 said to be an outspoken
communist and thinks railroads have
no rights. So he made up his mind
to administer justice by shooting
Judge Dundy, and which purpose
he freely proclaimed. This coming
to the cars of his honor, he bought a
self-cocking revolver, ready to give
the crank a warm reception. Hence
tho crank has failed to put in an ap
pearance. Lincoln Journal.

The Habit of ScIf-Control.
It there is one habit which above
all others, is deserving of cultiva
tion, it is that of self-control. In
fuel it includes so much that is of
value and importance in life, that it
may almost be said that in propor
tion to its power, does the mau ob
taiu manhood, and the woman her
womanhood. The ability to identify
self with the highest parts of our
nature, and to bring all the lower
parts into subjection, or rather to
draw them all upward into harmony
with tho best that wo know, is the
one central power which supplies
vitality to all 'the reet. How to de
velopo this in the child may well ab
sorb the energy of every parent;
how to cultivate it iu himself may
well employ the wisdom and the en
thusiasm of every youth. Yet it is no
mysterious or complicated path that
leads to this goal. Tho habit of self
control is but the accumulation of
continued acts of self-denial tor a
worthy object ; it i6 but the repeated
authority ot the reason over the im
pulse, of the judgment over the in
clinations, of the sense of duty over
the desires. He who has acquired
this haliit, who can govern himself
intelligently, without painful cllbrts
and without any fear of revolt from
his appetites or passions, has withiu
him the source of all real power and
of all true happiness. The force
and energy which ho has put forth
day b day, ami hour by hour, is
not exhausted nor eveu diminished;
on tho contiary it has increased by
use, and becomes Btrongcrand keen
er by exercise ; and, although it has
already completed its work iu the
past, it is still his well-tried, true
and powerful weapon for future
conflicts iu higher regions. Phila
delphia Public Ledyer.
What Shiill We Feed?
At the present high prices of grain
the question of what to feed during
the coming winter is of great mo
ment, and one that puzzles our stock
men to solve, our farmers have fed
15 cent corn so long that they can
not get accustomed to anything else
and uow Unit it is worth 40 cents,
thoy arc at sea to know what to
feed. We hear of quite a number
that are buying oil cake. Mr. C. N.
Scott, of Pawnee county, has order
ed three car loads and says there
will be at. least that -much more fed
in his neighborhood. Mr. Scott has
a lot of sheep and cattle, and says it
is cheaper than corn at ?0 and 40
cents per bushel ; if such is the case,
the question of winter feed is solved.
Some of the most noted stock breed
ers of Iowa, have considered oil
cake cheaper to feed at $30 per ton,
than corn at .10 cents per bushel and
have been feeding it for a number of
years, with gooil results. OH cake
is very rich feed aud must be fed
very light at first a very gcod plan
is to begin by feeding a very little,
say half a pint at a feed with about
half the usual feed of corn or oats
and if the animal is disposed to
scouring lessen the feed of oil cake
nntii (he scouring ceases, and then
begin gradually to increase it again.
Chauging from grain to oil cake,
should be doue very cautiously, or
the animal will be liabje to injury.
One pint of oil cake is said to con
tain as much nourishment as two
quarts of shelled corn, and is much
healthier. For feeding horses the
better plan would be to give a little
corn or oats, say about a half a Iced,
and a small of oil cake, by this
means the danger of over feeding
of the oil cikc would bo obviated.

rVever Let mi Old .ID an Have a
Pihtol.
Old men, children and fools should
not be permitted to handle fire
arms, is tho conclusion one is led to
by reading tho following sickening
accident, from last week's Central
Chy Courier:
' A very sad and heart-rending ac
cident occurred at the residence of
Chas. Pemberton, last Friday even
ing, resulting in the death of his
little daughter, Addic, aged six
years. Mr. Pemberton had been
killing hogs, using a revolver for the
purpose, and had lain it down. His
father, the grandfather of the little
girl, picked it up aud started to the
house with it. The little girl asked
for one of the shells, and her grand
father cocked the revolver and was
endeavoring to remove the shells,
when the pistol was iu some way
discharged. Tho ball struck the
child in tho abdomen aud passed
backward and downward through
tho body, imbedding itself in tho
wall of the house. Dr. Guillemot
was called, but it was found impos
sible to save the little ono's life, and
she died Saturday. The funeral oc
curred Sunday afternoon, at the
Comstock school-house, Rev. J. J.
Kceler officiating.

The smash-up of a cattle train,
just this side of Culbertson, an ac
couut of which recently appeared in
the Pioneer,wns a rather serious af
fair to two or three individuals and
resulted in a strange scene, not often
witnessed. It seems that out of the
fifteen cars of stock wrecked," about
one hundred of the animals were
either killed or maimed, and to
gether with the wrecked cars cov
ered with blood, presented a ghastly
spectacle. The cattle that escaped
unhurt gathered on the adjacent
prairie, and finally, infuriated by
terror and the smelhof blood,charged
on tho wreck, apparently with all
the ferocity of tigers. A brakemau
named Pat Bryan was pinned, or
held against the side of a car, the
horns of tho beast tearing his shirt
on both sides, and breaking threo
ribe. The engineer was tossed into
a ditch and escaped by crawling un
der a car. Our informant said he
never saw animals that appeared so
demoniacal iu their rage. Their
roaring could be heard for two
miles. They continued to hold tho
fort for over an hour, keeping tho
train men treed all the time, and oc
casionally making a venturesome
man show a pair of straight coat
tails over the prairie. At the end
of that timo reinforcements arrived,
the brutes wero driven ofl' and the
work of clearing the wreck and
slaughtering tho wounded animals
was commenced. Sinco that timo
tho surviving cattle have been roam
ing over the prairie, and many of
them have been gobbled up by the
farmers, which however is not an
easy thing to do. as they are wild as
antelopes and as savage as grizzly
boars. The B. & M. company to
avoid bother and litigation paid Geo.
Binklcinan, the owner aud shipper,
for the whole fifteen car-loads.

Southern Parmer's Monthly.
Geuor.il Walker, tho superintend
ent of the census, has formulated a
plan for the reapportionment of the
country into Congressional districts
on a basis of one representative to
Ki9,0S0 population. This plan
would leave the membership of tho
House of Representatives 203, as at
present. Secretary Kirkwood will
submit the plau to Congress in his
annual report. On this basis the
following ch'inges in representation
would ensue iu the Forty-eighth
Congress: Arkansas, California,
Michigan, Mississippi, South Caro
lina, and West Virginia would gain
one each ; Minnesota and Nebraska
would gain two each; Alabama, Ill
inois, Maine, Maryland, New Hamp
shire, Ohio, Tennessee, and Ver
mont would lose one each ; Penn
sylvania two, and New York threo.
The other states would show no
change. Ex.
When the paint, gets off the rims
of the best wagon wheels they lose
moisture and shrink very faBtin dry
weather. The quickest preventive
is a mixture of petrolum and linseed
oil applied to tho felloes with a
brush, several timeB over, where
they are dry.
There is only now and then an
opportunity of displaying great
courage, or even great wisdom ; but
every hour in the day offers a chance
to show our good nature.
All real life is cheerful, and the
the only proper place for croakers is
the grave-yard.

which failed to cure liiin. 1 was one
day reading the advertisement of Ken

and got our Druggists here to send for
it, ttiey ordered three bottle: 1 took
them :ill mill tlimiclit I ivmilil wivi it !i
