ful wretch. He forgot that two dem
cratic representatives voted for the
capital appropriation bill, and 38 of
his men are said to have voted the
straight republican ticket at Louis
ville on Tuesday, under his orders.
Journal.
It is true that two of our democrat
ic members from Cass county voted
I for the Capitol appropriation j but it
is not true that Boss btout's quarry
men voted the straight republican
ticket ; however, it it a fact that Boss
Stout in return for the favors render
ed him by our democratic friends,
last winter in a legislative capacity,
ordered his men to vote the democrat
ic ticket in Cass county, and that cer
tain prominent republicans of Lan
caster county boned, the job. If these
men did not vote as the Boss ordered
them "the more is the pity," for our
democratic representatives who are
thuB cheated out of their pay. Platts
mouth Herald.
The above shows how Boss Stout
works and manages. If the north
Platte country could send members to
Lincoln who would stand firm against
the peculiar blandishments that Mr.
Stout uses to accomplish bis purposes,
the state treasury would be a good
deal better off, and the burden of tax
ation would be measurably lightened.

circulars to all points of the G. A. R.
in Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, Ne
braska, Colorado, New Mexico and
Indian Territory, asking the signa
tures of all comrades to a memorial
to congress praying for the establish
ment of a soldiers' and sailors' home
in Kansas. Speedy action is request
ed, so the memorial may be presented
early in the coming session of con
gress. The new standard time of the cen
tral division, or the 90lh meridian,

tral, began running trains in accord
ance therewith. The leading jewelers
set their chronometers back 9 minutes
33 seconds to correspond with the
basis. The new standard time went
into effect on the 18th inst. at noon in
New York City.
The news from Pittsburg, Pa., the
other day was of the most gloomy
forebodings to the workmen in the
iron mills on account of the an
nouncement that a number of the
mills were about to close down owing
to a lack of orders and the general
unsatisfactory condition of the iron
trade. If this purpose to stop the
mills is executed, not less than eight
thousand workmen will be thrown
out of employment at Pittsburg, and
at Johnstown, Pa., not less than five
thousand more.
Elder Morgan of the Mormon
church passed through Kansas City
the other day, en route for Salt Lake,
with seventy-eight recruits from tho
southern states. The proselytes say
they have been promised homes with
no restrictions in the shoice of relig
ion. The Mormon elders understand
their business, and have been and are
now most industriously prosecuting
it among a people, who have un
changeable prejudice and hatred to
the U. S. government and its laws.
Frank and George Avery, broth
ers, Hying near Lincoln, Neb., got
down an old shot gun the other day
in the barn, and being very young,
did not take the proper precaution
to see if it was loaded ; Frank was
pointing it at the door and when
George stepped in front of the muzzle
the load was discharged, striking him
in the back of the head and neck.
Medical help was immediately sent
for, but little George passed away
just as the doctor arrived.

brotherhood, and emphatically denied
that he murdered Kenney. He was
opposed to English tyranny and was
not afraid to die, and called for three
cheers for the Irish republic.
Perry "Walker, of Cass county,
Neb., some years ago raised and ex
hibited at the State Fair an apple

Smithsonian institute at Washington.
This is said to be the largest apple
ever raised in the United States. The
second largest is now on exhibition
at the Commercial Hotel in Lincoln,
and was raised by N. J. Fellerley near
Bennett, this state.
Republicans of Cass county will
hereafter have something to say iu re
gard to the well developed contract
ors, with well developed stonequar
ries, who interfere in Cass county
politics. Plattsmouth Herald.
And must the Boss go? Truly,
now, will something be done? "Wo
glory in your spunk, but you must
remember that the Boss is Stout in
more ways than one, and yet so was
Tweed.
Gen. A. C. Dodge, a citizen of Bur
lington, Iowa, died on the 20th inst.

egate to congress, presidential elec
tor, delegate to the Chicago conven
tion in 1864 and to Philadelphia in

From Ohio.
The wheat crop in this state was
over twenty million bushels short this
year, but oats and hay were far ahead
of anything for several years. Corn
was frosted in the northern part of
the state to a considerable extent, but
altogether the farmers of Ohio are in
good condition.
The state, contrary to all precedent,
elected a democratic governor, who is
a renegade republican ; in fact a dram
shop politician who changes as he
sees chances of success for himself. I
refer to Hoadley, the invalid governor
elect.
We also voted on prohibition, which
was lost by about 40,000 votes. I am
satisfied that if either party had come
boldly forth and announced them
selves in favor of prohibition, it would
have carried by a good majority.
Nearly all those leaving our state
for the west, go to Nebraska or Da
kota. The latter territory has been
taking a boom for the past year.
John B. Finch of your stato did
more harm to the temperance and re
publican party here this year than any
other one man. Under the cover of
his popularity as a temperance orator
he had his meetings announced by all
the different churches, and basely
took advantage of the immense audi- I
ence, secured to him principally by
republicans, to make a strictly demo-'
cratic speech. I fancy his reception
in this city hereafter will be entirely
different from former years.
We had a slight fall of snow to-day,
Nov. 1st, which is the first this season.
I take this opportunity of sending
my regards to all my Columbus
friends and to inform them that I am
still in the land of the living, and
quite successful. Truly yours,
W. H. Lawrence.

AND BLADDER, AND WELL AS ALL CHRONIC AND NER
VOUS DISEASES,.
DR. FISHBLAT
Has discovered the greatest cure in the world for weakness of the back and 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 headxroat, nose or skin, affections of the liver, lungs, stom
ach or bowels those terrible disorders arising from solitary habits oi youth, and
secret practices more fatal to the victims than tbe songs ot Syrens to the mariners of
uiysses, oitgnting meir most rauianc nopes or anticipations, rendering marriage
impossible.
Those that are suffering from the evil practices, which destrov their mental and
physical systems causing
NERVOUS DEBILITY,
the symptoms of which area 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 beat, depression of spirits, evil forebod
ings, cowardice, fears, dreams, restless nights, dizziness, forgetiuhiess, unnatural
discharges, pain in the back and hips, short breathing, melancholy, tire easily of
company and have preference to be alone, feeling as tired in the morning as when

ness, confusion of thought, trembling, watery and weak eyes, dyspepsia, constipa
tion, paleness, pain and weakness in the limbs, etc., should consult. e immediately

confide in his honor as a gentleman, and confidently rely upon his skill at a
physician.
ORGANAL WEAKNESS
Immediately cured and full vigor restored. This distressing affliction which ren
der life a burden and marriage impossible, is the penalty paid by the victim for
improper indulgence. Young-people are apt to commit excesses from not be!n"
aware of the dreadful consequences that may ensue. Now who that understand?
this subject will deny that procreation is lost sooner by those falling into improper
habits than by prudent? Besides being deprived of tbe pleasure of healthy otf-
