H. OEEE , Chairman. Sectetarr DOUGLAS county should bo repn seated by her very best men In tL Republican State Convention , an it is to be hoped delegates will ben this in mind. SENATOR ALLEN G. TJIUKMA : must be thoroughly disgusted -\vit that wonderful mixture of absurd : ties which has been adopted by tb Ohio Democracy as the financk plank of their platform. "Whil Thurman has always favored earl return to a solid specie Jjasis , th Dernoc'-aUc Convention declared i favor of greenbacks and nationc bank currency and free banking 01 a paper basis. . "W. M. FRANCIS , Esq. , is an nounced by his friends as , a candi date for the office of District Attot ney for this district. Mr. f ranci lias been a resident of Douglas coun ty during the past three years , am is well known as an active and tru Republican. He has a law practice , extendinj over a period of five years , and fo : the past two yearshe has been a la\ partner of General Estabrookvitl whom he is now associated. Prio to locating in Omaha , Mr. FrancL has enjoyed a thorough course o reading , a part of which was wltt Judge Crounse. Possessed of ex cellent qualifications and influen tlal backing , Mr. Francis enters tlx list with a very fair prospect ONE plank in the Kansas Bepub- can platform should commenditsell forcibly to Repucllcans in .Nebras ka. It reads as follows : Jicsolvcd , That the peril of the government lies not so much in high ambitious as in low dishones ties , and the pressing duty of the day is to secure honesty and purity in the public service. We com mend the courage of the .Republi can party in instituting investiga tion of corruptions in office , sparing neither friends nor foes , and we de mand such legislation aswill bring to certain punishment any officer who , being intrusted with the charge of publio funds , appropriates the same to his own use , or fails to properly account for them. Em bezzlement is theft , and ought to bo punished as such. " ACCORDING to Redfield's postal organ there are not a half a dozen Republicans in Omaha that believe in Postmaster Yost's guilt. This would simply imply that the Re publicans of Douglas County are either all knaves or all idiots , and our intimate acquaintance with them enables us to declare that they belong to neither of these is that classes. The fact even Seenatorg Hitchcock has 'admitted Yost's guilt , but the Sena tor thinks the principal witnesses to the case into vill not dare carry court , because they also might find themselves inculpated in the corrupt - rupt transactibns. And this leads whether it is absolutely UB to inquire corrupt officer necessary that every and convicted in a must be Indicted criminal ! court , before the Senator -will consider it Ujnely tojrilhdraw fe backing ? Republicans , in theii platform , pronounce most emphati cally against a third term for Presi dents. Nebraska Republicans will doubtless follow their example. THE impending political cam paign in Nebraska is destined tc become very interesting and diver sified. Already we have had calls for State Conventions from four po litical organizations , and the cry ii still they come. A fifth political party has just taken the field and promulgated its call. A People's State Convention is to be held at Lincoln , on the 7th of September , Inasmuch as we are not familial with the aims of the leaders of this latest departure , it would be impos < to prognosticate ifs effect upon the political chess-board. It is verj gratifying , however , that the deal people will have such a variety 01 tickets to choose from. * * THE apologists and strikersof th ( postal ring are resorting to everj possible subterfuge to prevent ar honest expression of sentiment or the part of the Republicans at th < coming county convention. Theii chief argument is , tbat it is no within the province of politica conventions to give expression o their views touching the misman agement of public officers. Kov we claim that it is not only th < province , but the duty o such conventions to dis .approve and condemn the acts o public men who iave in any man ner disgraced the party. Such ha ; been universally the practice al over the Pniou. In the city o Toledo a Republican oonventionnp more than six weeks"ago , passed res olutions denouncing the conduct o Congressman Sherwood in appoint ing an odious and corrupt person a ! postmaster , and those resolution : were carried to the Congressiona Convention , and Congressman Sher wood was defeated for renomina tion. Now it is not' proposed t ( carry the Omaha postal case to th < fitate Convention , but it is ernin ently proper that Douglas countj Republicans express their disap proval of postal whitewashing ant the icmoval of honest officials foi their fidelity to the public service THE good people of Cbeyenni County will doubtless be surprisec to learn that they are indebted foi their political preponderance in th < various State Conventions to aprin ter'sbull. On the 10th day of June when the BEE published the officia copy of the State census of 1874 , printer's bull was made by the type in crediting Cheyenne County will 1449 inhabitants instead of 449 a ; shown in Secretary Gosper's cerli fled copy. The mistake was diseov ered and corrected in the next issu < of our dallybutthis did not proven the Omaha Republican and all oth er State papers from embodying thi original bull in their census column It is evident that the cairmar and secretary of the Republicai Stale Central Commute who wen charged with making the estimate of'representation for each county according to the basis agreed upor by the cornrnitte , made their calula tiqns upon the erroneous figures ir the printed census reports. Thvi Cheyenne county was credited witl three delegates to the State con vention , when m fact they are onlj entitled to one delegate. The same error has been propa gated through all tbe calls issued bj the various political parties ; ant Cheyenne county is thus indebtet to some careless printer in the BEI officefor her political preponderance The Germans and the Republi Party. ( Communicated. ! LIXCOLX , August 28. EDITOR BEE : ' The Omaha Herald of yesterday contained a communication dated , Lincoln , August 25 , in which I find the following sentence : "THE DUTCH TOOK HOLLAND. " The' ' Dutch took Holland , " and the Germans are going to take'the Republican State Convention and compel tnem to nominate one ol their nationality for Secretary ol State , or they are going to secede from the' party. They have sent forth their proclamation to this eflect , and are going to stand by it. Hon. Bruno Tzchuck , of Sarp3 * , a member of the last legislature is the most prominent man mentioned , and will go into the convention with a large vote pledged to him. Dr. F. Rentier , of the Stoats Zci- tungt is also sjwken of. Ths doc tor la backed by a strong combina tion , and .will not only make a close fight in the convention , but will cast-a bigger vote in the State than any other man they can nominate , for he is well and favorably Icnowu throughout the State. I don't know if the Germans are going to jeoedo from the party ; this depends upon the actions of tue next Republican State Convention ; upon a sound , just , and liberal plat form j and the nominations of hon est and able men. If the Couveu- ion will not or cannot fulfil these reasonabledemandsof the Germans , r'ou may be sure they will leave the ilepublican party en nassc : , and vote the ticket of the opposition. But , Mr. Editor , I know one htng more , and that is , if Dr. Fr. tenner is nominated as secretary of state , it will materially help the 3emoccats to elect their candidate or tliis olllce , for the Doctor is well known throughout the S'ate , not to be fit , aior to have the charac ter to fulfil this , Important position.- . Renuerhas long ago forfeited his claim on the German vote. lie took ad vantage of his po sition as editor of a German paper , to use the vote of the Germans to promote his own personal political schemes. Has he a claim on the Republican party , Mr. Editor ? In the middle of the campaign of 1872 , he turned his German paper , the * Stoats Zcitung over to the enemy , viz : the Liberal party , and it is only a few weeks ago that h % , through the columns of this paper , most em phatically declared to be a 'Liberal Republican in politics ondprinciple. There is hardly a German hi this StateAvho has so often represented' ' to be a candidate of the German element , before the different politi cal conventions , than this medical and journalistic Doctor ; and there is no German in this State who will get in the next election a. less .Ger ' man .vote.than he will. { GEBMAN , ' MONTANA. The Valley of the Tellowitone- The National Park View of the Geysers Omaha Mer chants Montana Gold Mines , Etc. Correspondence of the BEE. BOZEMAN , M. T. , Aug. 14. EDITOR OMAHA BEE : On the morning of August llth we took a conveyance for the Mam moth Springs in the geyser coun try. For the first 15 miles w < passed through a mountainoui country , over low passes and thei reach the Yellowstone valley ant pass up the valley to the Mammoti Springs , here words would fail t ( convey the idea of the scenery tha meets the eye. In looking toward ; the mountains we see mountains o steam ascending fn m the spring ! that reach from/the valley to neai the summit of tlXfiraflmtains. Neai by we see what is called the spec ! men mountain ; here we find al kinds of beautiful crystals anc .petrifications and lime formation ! that would be an ornament to anj cabinet If people m the States knew what grand scenery and curi osities were to be found here , and sc easily reached , it seems to me thai hundreds would avail themselves ol the oppo f tunity and see the greatesi . .wonders"of the world. These springs are distant from Bozemai : some thirty miles , and a good road all the way. The geyser countrj lays some forty-five miles distant from here and will be accesssiblt with wagons by another year.V found many visitors going ant coming to the wonder land. Owing to some stir among the noble red man , our party seemed tc weaken on going to the Geysers , although many were on their waj there and assured us that there was no danger whatever from Indians , as they seem to have great fears o : that part of the country , and thinls this is the abode of the evil spirit. On the morning of the 13th 01 August we retraced our steps and made our way towards Bozeman arriving there in the evening , Bozeman is a beautiful village 01 some GOO inhabitants , situated be tween two mountains and near the head of the Gallatin river , or whew the river passes through the moun tains. We fouqij snmy visible OD the mountains on either side of tht village , and the weather was rathei cool , especially in the morning. Here at Bozeman wo met two Omaha men , viz : S. R. Johnson , of the firm of Steele&Jonhson.and C. C. Housel , of the firm of 0. C. Housel & Co. , who are looking ovei the country and seem to be well pleased with Montana. On the morning of Aus t J4tu w ? tp0 seats in the coach of P. B. Clark & Co. , at 4 o'clock , and started foi Helena , going1 down the valley ol the AVest Gallatin , arriving at Cock- roll's ranch for breakfast at 8 o'clock A. it. Proceeding on" our way we found ourselves at Qallatin pty | a.1 11 o'clock A. 3f. Qhangec } Corses al Shedd's ranch , and crossing the bridge across the Jefferson river we are in sight of the camping ground of Lewis & Clark , who camped here on this spot in the year 1802. Leav ing tlie Jefferson valley we pass over low foot hills and mountainous country , reaching Radcrsburg foi dinner , some 54 mijes from Bow man. This place Is In Crow Creels valley , and is surrounded by placei mines and some excellent quarh mines , one of which is be ing worked very successfully bj Messrs. Keating & Blacker , who nave a mill running , reducing the ores. Passing from here nine miles over the most picturesque moun tains , wo reach pringviUe , a small village supported by the Indian Creek placer mines , which , for waul of water , are not worked much al present. Looking to the east , we see the Missouri river and Deep Creek valley , the most beautiful valley we over saw. This valley has &omo very fine fields of wheat , oats , and barley , that will ho ripe enough to cut by th'e 25th of August. Diamond City Is about fifteen miles from Springville , ad is situated in a canon or gulch of the mountains , and near Confederate Gulch , noted for the immense amount of gold taken out of it by means of hy draulics. From this place we travel over a rough road 38 miles to Helena , ar riving at 8 o'clock p. m. , making 110 miles since 4 a. m. , tired enough to take to our bed for the night at the St. Louis hotel , kept by mine host Samuel Schwah7 More anon. DIVEK. Miles of Silence ana Death. In the northwest corner of San Bernardino county , lying partly also in Inyo county , and by the newly surveyed line partly also in the state of Nevada , is a region paral leled by few other spots on this earth. We say the world is instinct with life. Here , if the phraseology may be pardoned , is a place instinct with death. A huge basin , whose rim is the ancient hills , stricken with the barienness of desolation ; whose bosom the blasted waste of the desert treeless , shrubless and yaterless , save a few bitter pools like the lye of polash water ; sur rounded by mountains that tower thousands of feet above the sea level , itself lying 300 feet below the sea. It is a very "Gehenna" a place of death and bones. Birds do not fly over it. Animals do not enter it Vegetation cannot exist in it. "The broad sands absorb the heat , the bare mountains reflect" it , the unclouded sun daily adds to it .Ninety de grees in the shade ( artificial shade , there is no other ) , means winter ; 130 ° end 140 ° , that is summer. The hot air grows hotter , wavers , trembles with heat , until nature , joaded to madness , can endure no more ; and then the burning blast rouses itself rouses in its might rouses as an angry beast , and with a hoarse , ominous whisper , sweeps mile after mile , on , ever on over lie broad reach of the desert , bear- ng in its black , whirling bosom black as the midnight dust and death. Sometimes a murky cloud gathers upon the mountains above ; ' hen there is a rush a warning sigh on the winds low rumbling in he air ; the hills quiver , the earth remblcs , and a torrent , half water , lalf mud , bounds from1 the bills , caps into the desert , plowing jhasms like river beds in the loose sand. The clouds scatter , the sun 3omes again the eternal , thirst of the desert is not quenched The ra- jing river is only a dream. In the year 1849 a party of emi grants entered the basin. Day ifter day they toiled on , thirsting , lying. The pitiless mountains vailed them in ; no escape. tOne jy ono they dropped and died. A ew , abandoning everything , scaled lie mountains and escaped. The ) thers lie as they fell , dried to nummies no birds even to devour heir flesh , no beasts to prey upon hem. Wagon-tires unrusted , gun- jarrels bright , untarnished. Such s the place. Mile after mile .silence eicus ; silence and , death. Overland Monthly. OCCIDENTAL JOTTINGS. COLORADO. Laborers ate receiving S4.00 > pe : day in'the San Juan mines. The hotels at Idaho Springs an crowded with visitors and invalids and large numbers are camping ii the vicinity. Work is progressing rapidly on thi Georgetown , Empire and Mlddl < Park wagon road. Carrriages cat be driven to the pass in a few days The Indians In their late raid tool 265 head of horses , ran off some cat tie , and killed four men of 7ohi Cisum's ranch. Not a "horse wai left on the ranch. The importations of bloodei stock into Colorado" this season an very large , and show the growinj interest taken by our stock men 11 the improvement of their herds. The Hayden exploring expeditioi while rambling in the "Garden o the Gods , " measured , by lead anc line , the hight of one of the red rock gate posts to the garden , ant found it to be 335 feet. Nothinj ttller than that in the world o architecture. Although the Colorado crop : have been considerably damaged ii some sections of the Territory , b } the ravages of the grasshoppers , ye the field , as a whole , will be mos satisfactory. That the loss shoulc fall on the few will all the more b < regretted , from the fact that tnej may be illy prepared to endure it If , however , tbe loss could be sharet by all its effects would not be fel so seriously. Talk about your big potato patch es in the States , .as much as yoi please , but after all few of there can beat one little patch afewjuile ; from Denver. .The owner is pop ularly known as "Potato Clark , ' but who's correct cognomen is Rums Clark. He has one hundred and fifty acres of potatoes , whicl will produce froni 25.000 tp 3QQO ( bushels. Mr. Clark has expendec over $2,000 to prevent the ravage : of the potato bug this year. During the snow storm on Pike'i Peak last Thursday , a man by th < name of Morrison , wh.o was making the descent , lost his v-ay , and in hii wanderings fell into a chasm twen ty-five feet deep. In the fall he be came so wedged in between the rocks that it was impossible for hin : to extricate him self , and in thi ; terrible ana painful condition he re remained until Saturday night when he was found and brought te Manitou. Fortunately his pockets contained two slices of bread anc meat , which was his only foot during'the period mentioned. A band of Sjoux a.hou.t ten q"ayf ago committed an outrage near the eastern line of the territory , thai has rarely been equalled barbari ty. They caught faitf unfartpn.atf laborng | inen. that , vyere going from town to town In search of work or the Atchison , Topeka and Santa F < railroad , andafter , butchering them scalped and otherwise mutilated two , and burned the hearts out o the others. They Uien.hqrnefl th { railroad bridge ncmr Aubrey station , The bodies of seven , a few days af forwards , were brought into Dodgt City , supposed to have been mur dered by the same band. A block of go4 } ore , three feel wldp , seypn fpet long , weighing twelve thousand pounds , and wortL several hundred dollars per ton , was thrown put by a blast , Friday , in the far-famed Gregory mine , which , it is assumed , is the strongest and richest gold lode in the country , Efforts were made by-the minors , says the Central JReglstev , to raise the enormous block to the surface intact , but even after it had under gone u good deal of trimming , il was found too large to admit ol being raised through the shaft , and too hea.vy to he safely entrusted tc the hoisting apparatus. The mass was so shattered as to destroy its value as a specimen. * NEVADA. Eight furnaces are now in opera tion at Eureka. There are six subordinate Lodges of the Knights of Pythias in the State , with a membership of 305. The amount of money received in aid of the Eureka sufferers was $7,424.47 ; amount paidout$7,222.25. A large body ot snow still lies on the range of mountains southeast ol Dayton , and the advance of the season has but little apparent effect upon it. CALIFORNIA. Sierra valley was visited by heavy frosts last week. Fruit is said to be going sadly to waste in Yolo county. Over 14,000 persons have arrived in the State by rail since the 1st of April. The Vallejo boot factory is now employing about twenty-two hands , nearly half of whom are females. The fruit-drying factory atCen- terville is running night and day , working principally upou plums and peaches. The fruit-drying enterprise in Vacaville promises success. The two evaporators now in operation dry about thirty-five tons of green fruit per day. The Sacramento Smelting Works have now one furnace running , and the other will bo probably in opera tion in about ten days. The re fining furnaces will be ready for work next week. At Gold Run , on 'the Central Pacific railway , some fifteen or twenty families have been using wild coffee ( so called ) as a substi tute for the imported article , and announce that it tastes like Costa Rica coffee. In the highest of the SierrasFres- , no county , whore timber abounds , fully one-third of the pine trees liave in places been struck by light ning this season , and in some parts xcre after acre of enormous pines liave been prostrated by the fury ot the storms that have prevailed there .hid season.

Henry P. Ankenj' , the largest iheese maker In Marion county and ) regon , is now milking 135 cows md making 200 pounds of cheese laily. The Farmers' wharf-at Astoria , vhen completed , will be the largest vharf north of San Francisco. This Iocs not include the road way , which s 600 feet long , and can be used for rharfage purposes. At the rich and extensive gold- tearing quartz mines lately devel- iped on Elk creek , in Grant county , , run of three days with an eight tamp mill , 300 pounds of amalgam rere cleaned up. This , -when re- * orted , wouldleave about 250 pounds fgold. * Frank Cooper has discovered ar immense marble bed , twenty-eighl fecfc thick and of unknown extent ou Butte Creek , near the limeston < quarries , and is about to put up i mill there. The stone-sawing mar' 'ble is variegated , and is said to be o fine quality. MEXICO. Two sun-eying parties leftCimar- ron , recently , to run township anc subdivision lines to the east of Rec river. The vine crop in the Rio Grandi valley , this year , it is expected wil be large in yield and of excelleni quality. Don Salvador > Armijo , of Albu cfuerque , harvested 54 fauegas o wheat this season from one fanegt ot seed. While the leect weighe ( only 170 pounds per fanega , th ( Yield reached _ L72 pounds for thi same measure.
