the platform.
The committee on resolutions sub
mitted the following report :
Whereas, The constitution of Ne
braska, adopted in 1875, expressly
provides that the legislature shall
enact laws prohibiting extortion and
discrimination by transportation com
panies, and to prescribe maximum
rates of transportation ; and
Whereas, After a lapse of eight
years, with four consecutive legisla
tures that were by a large majority
republican, the provisions of the con
stitution were ignored and producers
and shippers aro subjected to the un
restricted caprice and greed of cor
porate monopolies ; and
Whereas, The dominant party has
made the most solemn pledges to en
act wholesome railroad laws and
enforce equal taxation of all classes
of property, and these pledges have
been grossly violated ; therefore be it
liesolqed, By the Anti-Monopolists
in convention assembled, that we call
upon the voters of Nebraska to rally
around the Anti-Monopoly standard
in defense of right and constitutional
privileges. We declare :
1. That corporations, the creation
of the state, shall be controlled by
law.
2. That we demand a material re
duction in passenger and freight tolls
by legal enactment through congress
and our legislatures.
3. That we earnestly favor tho es
tablishment of a postal telegraph.
4. That we denounce as unjust and
burdensome the exemption from tax
es of railroad lands whether patented
or unpatented.
5. That we favor a radical revision
of the tariff adjusted so as to foster
American industry without creating
monopolies or placing needless bur
dens on the consumer.
6. That discrimination in favor of
grain and coal dealers and the creator
of grain and coal monopolies should
be prohibited by law and equal facili
ties granted to all shippers.
liesolved, That labor, its importauco
as the condition of all production,
and its just relation with capital,
should be recognized and its right
protected by law. Labor saving ma
chinery, instead of unduly ouriching
the capitalist ought to reduce the
hours of labor without reducing wa
ges, so the workingmen may have
more time for recreation and im
provement. The right of laboring
men to hold public meetings for
peaceable discussion should be pro
tected by law. State prisons and
penitentiaries are established to pre
vent crime and reform criminals, not
to make profits for private persons or
to injure the interests of labor. There
fore, the contract system in these in
stitutions should be abolished, and
the labor of the convicts be so em
ployed as not to injure the interests
of merchants and laboring men.
The platform was adopted except
the fifth plank, which was modified
so as to demand a tariff for revenue
onlv.
A young girl in North Carolina
had her hand completely severed
from the arm by an axe. The physi
cian replaced the hand, secured it
with silver stitchea and adhesive plas
ter, and having secured it on a broad
board splint, ordered them to be kept
warm with hot flannel cloth. The
third day pulsation could be plainly
felt in the hand, which had also chang
ed its color. The bandages were re
moved on the fourteenth day, and
afterwards she carried the hand in a
Bling, and in three months after the
accident she was able to extend the
fingers apd grasp with nearly the
UBual strength.
From San Saba through to McCul-,
lough and Concha counties, Texas,

Stock men will suffer havy loss. Such
a drouth has not been experienced in
that region for many years.
The celebration of the linking of
Pugct Sound with Lake Superior at
St. Paul, and the banquet at Minne
apolis on the 3d, proved to be a grand
affair, which brought together the
Villard party, including President
Arthur, Gens. Grant and Sheridan
and Secretary Lincoln, as well as
noted foreigners of the old world,
with a sprinkle of about 40,000
natives. Minneapolis was profusely
decorated, and appropriate mottoes
and flags floated in the breeze. After
the procession had formed and while
President Arthur, Villard, Sheridan,
Grant and Lincoln appeared on the
stand it formed the occasion and sig
nal for an outburst of applause and
cheering. In the evening Villard and
his guests were tendered a banquet at
hotel Lafayette, at Lake Minuetonka,
Minn. After the guests had indulged
heartily in the banquet, the health of
President Arthur was proposed. The
President responded as follows :
Mr. Chairman 1 thank you '.cor
dially for your kind greeting. I am
glad to take part in these festivities.
'The great work which they commem
orate may well be celebrated, and Mr.
Mayor,-welt may the residents of your
city, which stands at the gateway of
that highway, stretching far out to the
western sea, congratulate themselves,
as they are about to enter upon a
career of renewed prosperity. Com
ing 'to you from that wonderland of
America, I have travelled a thousaud
milos by the Northern Pacific railway
nothing I have, read, nothing I have
ever heard, have equalled-what I have
seen, which convinces me of the im
portance of this great enterprise and
that it has not been .overestimated by
its most sanguine friends. All honor,
then, to the zeal and energy, which
has given to that enterprise such tre
mendous success. Loud cheers fol
lowed by three cheers for President
Arthur. Mr. Villard in reply to
Arthur's speech said :
"I am almost staggered by the
weight of gratitude you have heaped
upon me. I have already once before
to:day.(at Minneapolis) been compell
ed to protest that the honor was being
showered upon'me beyond my merit.
It was my good fortune to conduct
thiB enterprise, that started 13 years
ago, to a successful conclusion. But
thbre are others entitled to a great
deal of credit- for this success besides
myself. Circumstances called mo to
the direction of the Northern Pacific
at the most auspicious period of pros
perity. The times could not have
been more favorable than I found
them. My success is so far due to my
predecessors on the Northern Pacific,
and to that of my associates in the
directory. I found a living body
not a dead one. The success of the
enterprise was assured before I be
came president of it. Now that tho
road is completed, it was incumbent
on the management to make it satis
factory to the stockholders aud com
munity, who have looked forward to
its completion." Villard concluded
by alluding in feeling terms to the
generous hospitality extended by St.
Paul and Minneapolis to the foreign
and American guests. Villard's re
marks were loudly applauded.
It is claimed that twenty-five years
ago this month the first gold was dis
covered in Cherrv Creek, which
stream now runs west of and through
the city of Denver. In those days it
was "Pike's Peak or bust." A large
number succeeded in getting to the
peak, and perhaps a larger number
"busted." It is wonderful to think
of the changes which have taken
place in that vicinity in so short a
period. From a barren and desolate
plain has sprung up a beautiful city
with a population of 60.000 or 70,000
inhabitants, some of whom, we pre
sume, could not tell on a hasty in
quiry, how much they were worth in
this world's goods, aud hundreds of
others on the high road to wealth.
The population is still increasing, and
this year will witness the erection in
the city of very many costly and
beautiful buildings, Within the pe
riod named it is estimated that the
Rocky Mountain country, iucluding
Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming,
Idado and Montana have produced
$100,000,000 in gold, silver and copper.
Judge Bond, of the United States
circuit court, reudered at Richmond,
Vs., last week a very important de
cision concerning the state debt. The
judge holds that the tender of cou
pons for taxes is legal tender; that
officers of the state be enjoined from
levying on tax-payers' property after
the tender of coupons. The judge
also holds that the circuit court of
the United States has full jurisdic
tion over the matter. If the decision
stands it would seem the state can
collect no more revenue until she
provides for the coupons.
A curious discovery has been made
in the case of Miss Fannie Strickland,
who died last week at Adrian, Mich.
A substance was found in the intos
tinal canal which resembled, and was
supposed to be, a piece of grape stem.
Dr. Logue suggested that it might be
a pin surrounded with the corrosion
which would naturally accumulate
about a substance of that kind in such
a position. In cutting into toe center
of the supposed grape stem the pin
was found, and a further exploration
at one end revealed the head of the
pin.
The Iowa State Fair, it is predicted,
will be the largest in point of entries
and receipts ever held in the west.
It is claimed that there were 20,000
people on the ground on the 4th. The
big Indian chiefs Sitting Boll, Rain-in-the-Face,
Crow King and Gall,
were to arrive the next day aud re
main during the fair. The distin
guished Sioux war chiefs will bring
out the crowd of people, and it is
estimated that from 40,000 to 50,000
people will attend each subsequent
day duiing the fair.
Marquis Tzng, Chinese ambassdor,
has under instructions of his govern
ment, demanded the withdrawal of
France from the Hue treaty. Ferry,
French prime minister, refused to
comply, but assured the marquis that
France is willing to give China the
necessary guarantees for the integri
ty of her frontier. The rumor is cur
rent that Gen. Thebandin, minister of
war, will resign.
Another Appearaace.
On Saturday night last W. R.
Brooks, of Phelps, N. Y., discovered
a singular object in the constellation
of Draco. He was not certain as to
its real character, but on Monday
night Prof. Lewis Swift, Director of
the Warner Observatory at Roches
ter, N. Y., verified it by means of the
large Warner telescope as being a
comet. It is quite large, nearly round,
and moving slowly westward. Mr.
Brooks received a special prize of $250
from Mr. Warner some two montli-i
since, and if there is no prior claim
ant, will be entitled to the $200 prize
on the present discovery.
Mas. Mary W, Westcott, of De
Witt, Neb., is preparing a history of
the "Loyal Women of the Civil War,"
and .requests letters, records and ac
counts of woman's service to her
country, whether at home, in the hos
pital, in the field or in the sanitary
commission. It is intonded that this
work shall place the patriotic woman
of the civil service on record with the
volunteer soldiers aud create a fund
for the Ladies' Relief Corps of the

News at London on the 4th stated
that the Standard's Hong Kong spe
cial reported 4,000 Chinese troops,
stationed at Parhoi, had been ordered
to the frontier. Also that there was
much excitement at Hong Kong con
sequent upou the receipt of news that
Chinese troops are crossing Mang
Kia. This means China has accepted
the gage France has thrown down,
and war is inevitable.
The band parade at Hastings on
the 4th was a grand affair. The man
agement was conducted by Major
Pemberton, assisted by the drum
majors and leaders of twenty-one
brass bands and drum corps, which,
doubtless, produced music that excit
ed patriotic feeliugs in citizens and
soldiers. It is claimed that fully ten
thousand spectators witnessed the
parade.

It is again reported that the Union
Pacific railroad is soon to be pushed
through to tho Pacific coast. It is

Recent storms have almost totally
destroyed the grain and other crops
in the south of Ireland. The authori
ties fear a renewal of the rent agita
tion, owing to the distress consequent
upon the loss of crops. A general

minent. A. S. Harptell, the fourth of the
young desperadoes who robbed the

SPECIAL ATTENTION' GIVEN TO DISEASES OF
THE THROAT AND LUNGS, CATARRH KIDNEY
AND BLADDER, AND WELL AS ALL CHRONIC AND NEK-
VOUS DISEASES,.
DR. FISHBLATT
Has discovered the greatest cure in the world for weakness of the back aud limbs,
involuntary discharges, impotency, general debility, nervousness, languor, confus
ion of ideas, palpitation f the heart, timidity, trembling, dimness of sight or giddi
ness, diseases of the bead, throat, nose or skin, affections of the liver, lungs, stom
ach or bowels those terrible disorders arising from solitary habits ot youth, and
secret practices more fatal to the victims than the songs ot Syrens to the mariners of
Ulysses, blighting their most radiant hopes or anticipations, rendering marriage
impossible.
Those that are suffering from tho evil practices, which destroy their mental and
physical systems causing
NERVOUS DEBILITY,
the symptoms of which are a dull, distressed mind, which unfits them from perform
ing their business and social duties, makes happy marriage impossible, distresses
the action of the heart, causing flushes of heat, depression of spirits, evil forebod
ings, cowardice, fears, dreams, restless nights, dizziness, forgettulness, unnatural
discharges, pain in the back and hips, short breathing, melaucholy, tire easily of
company and have preference to be alone, feeling as tired iu the morning as wheu
retiring, seminal weakness, lost manhood, white bono deposit iu the urine, nervous
ness, confusion of thought, trembling, watery and weak eyes, dyspepsia, constipa
tion, paleness, pain and weakness in the limbs, etc., should consult me immediately
and be restored to perfect health.
YOUNG MEN
Who have become victims of solitary vice, that dreadful aud destructive habit
which annually sweeps to an untimely grave thousands or vouug men of exalted
talent and brilliant intellect who might otherwise entrance listening senator with
the thunders of their eloquence or wake to ecstacy the living lyre, may call with
full confidence.
MARRIAGE.
Married persons or young men "contemplating marriage be aware of physical

ders life a burden ana marriage impossiDie, is me penauy paiu oy mo victim tor
improper indulgence. Young people are apt to commit excesses from not being
aware of the dreadful consequences that may ensue. Now who that understand
this subject will deny that procreation is lost sooner by those fallin into improper
habits than by prudent? Besides being deprived of the pleasure of healthy off
springs, the most serious and destructive symptoms of both mind and body arise.
The system becomes deranged, the physical and mental functions weaken. Loss of
procreative powers, nervous irritability, dyspepsia, palpitation of the heart, Indi
gestion, constitutional debility, wasting of the frame, cough, consumption and death.
A CURE WARRANTED.
Persons ruined In health by unlearned pretenders who keep them trifling month
after month taking poisonous and injurious compounds, should apply immedlstdly..

of the most astonishing cures that were ever known; many troubled with ringing la
the ears and head when asleep, great nervousness, being alarmed at certain sound.,
with frequent blushing, attended sometimes with derangement of the mind were
cured immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
