THE OMAHA BEE OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY. EEPTTBLICAJT PLATFORM. "WHEr.EAS , The "Republican party , br its coune for th put thirteen yean as the domi nant politic * ! organization the United btates. has allied itself to the llherty-lOTlne masses of tbe world , and hai made a record which inritea scrutiny , and challenges all his tory for a parallel in elevating i uoianity , and establishing on a firm bail * "a goTerament by the people fur the people ; " and WIIKBEJLS , lu Eeveral acu in preferring the Union. ID promoting and ilreogtnenlng a com mon alleglence to the flag an < l government of this republic hare passed Into history and elic ited the approval of the Republican rentlment of the age , therefore we , tbe representatives of the Republican party of JCebru a , in conten tion assembled , do require as rotlows , TI : 1st. That all honest later should be protected , and receive its Just reward. Zi. That we earnest/ ! desire that tbe credit of our government shall be fir i ly maintained , in order that tbe commeicialand industrial in terests of tbe country mar not suOer injury by fluctuations in values or br Irapairiug in any degree that confidence whlih uo < r rerailsin regard to our circulating medium which we bop * will , at no d tant day , be based upon metalie currency , the rocgnized money of the world. 3d. That we beliere that banking , nnder a well-guarded national system , should be free , and we counsel reform and economy in all de partments of the public service , an 1 a reduc tion of the public debt in such a way and as rapidly , as it may be doce w.thout imposing burdens upon tbe Industries of the country. 4th. That we demand a rigid accountability in the discharge of official duty on tbe part oi all office-holders , whether State or Katiunal , and ttu-t rs delegntes , speaking for constituents whom we represent we disavow any sympathy with , or for dishonest public officials , in what ever capacity they may be employed. Sth That while we recognize and appreciate the advantages derived by the people from a well-regulated sysUm of railways we demand that these public highways should be rendered subservient to the public good. That while we disavow any hostility toward railroad corpora tions we proclaim our d termination to resist by lawful means all efforts to Impose oppressive or eztortionnte transportation tolls. Cth. That taxation , to be just , must be equally imposed upon all classes of property ; we therefore demand such National and State legislation as will compel railroads and all other corporations to pay th same proportion ot tax as is imposed on individuals. 7th. That we favor tbe proper exercise o ! the powers conferred upon the national govern ment by the coustltution to regulate commerce between the States , and to thL > end we recom mend that the government a tabllsh and ope rate a double tree * railway from the Missouri rive to the Atlantic tettxiird. 8th.

That the un rhtn law enact d by the example of tbe Father of his Country lu declining a re1ttio to the th rd Presidential term , is a > controllng as 1'iougb ' it wis lucor- porated in tbe national constitution , and ought never to be violated. llth. That th * present so-caTcd Quaker In- lan policv has failed to aCord either benefits to the Indians or protection to the front ! r settlers tlors , and we therefore demand tbe transfer nt the management ot the Indians to the War De partment. 12th. That we favor the rcapportlonment of Elate representatives through the enactment of new constitution at the earliest practicable day consistent with our present fundamental law , and that we recommend the submission to the direct vote of the people in a separate arti cle at the time the proposed new constitution Is voted upon , tbe questions oi "Prohibition , " "Local Option , " and license. ISth , That we approve the acts of Congress which put the rights o' all citizens under pro tection of the National authorities when they are assailed by hostile legislation , or by the vi olence of armed associations , whether open or secret , and in view of the recent outrages in the southern States , we dem ind the enforce- mentuf the laws that these r'ghts may be se curely and amply.protecU-d whenever and wher ever invaded ; we do , however , disapprove of all unconstitutional legislation , lor the cure of any of the disorder * of society , or evils which prevail in our land. 14th , That we are in favor of and most cor dlnlly Invite immigration to our State. Ne braska needs Immigration , that its vast agricul tural , mi er l. aud manufacturing resources may be developed , with an area sufficient to make ten States as large as Massachusetts , and a soil unsurpassed for fertility , we E ve a hearty welcume to tbe down-trodden masses of tbe old world.snd assure them that they shall be secure it. tli'ir lives , liberty and prop erty , and free to hold and express their relig ious and pollt cat opinions without restraint. 15th. That , relying upon tbe intelligence ot the people of our young and prosperous com monwealth , which Is soon to tale high rank in tbe great family of btates , we hereby renew our allegiance to the party which we represent and call up n its < lasse < , and conditions of men to utiite with uk i 11 erpetuatlnc the bl ss- Ings of free government fn accordance with tbe cherished principles which actuate and control the great bodv of REPUBLICAN TICKET.

DEAD niggers cast no Republican votes , is the motto of tbo Louisiana Democracy. B iHed down in the Nebraska Bourbon platform , this motto is condensed into tlic words , "Home Rule. " I IN order to manipulate the legis lative , nominations in the interest of hU twin brother Morton , Doctor Miller had to borrow Mr. Chandler's proxy to the late Bourbon County Convention. THAT special favorite of the trav elling public , the ancient and rock- rootrd Omaha Ferry Company , is well represented on the Bourbon leg islative ticket. There is something ial in the -wind , evidently. "WHEN Doctor Johnson heard the result of the Douglas County Bour bon Convention , ho made an excla mation that sounded very much like that made by L'ambronen at Waterloo. POLITICALLY speaking , "coming events cast their shadows before. " If * the people of Douglas County elect the Bourbon legislative ticket , Doctor Miller's twin brother will put in an appearance as claimant of Granny Tipton's Senatorial slippers. THE Bourbons of Douglas county have nominated what maybe justly called a straight-Bourbon , or rather Bourbon-straight , ticket Its respec tability in this respect is unques- the ticaed. You might travel a good of ways before you could find as re- epectable a collection of old fogies. ing STAND BY Y.OUB COLOSS. "He who la not for us Is against us ; " Isa ma33nrat all times appli cable In political as Bellas in mili tary waafare In other -words , he who Is iiot for the Republican party virtually against it , and must consequently be classed among its enemies. Such is just now the position of the -would be polit- cal reformers , made up for the most part of designing demagogues who , having failed to gratify then- ambition , seek to ruin where they could not rule. Ne braska has her share of these disappointed spoils hunters. On the one hand the malcontents , styling themselves Peoples' Inde pendent are seeking to create dis- sention among the industrial classes , by professions of hostility to mo nopoly. On the other hand the impractical fanatics who seek to force prohibition as a cardinal political doctrine , are ral- ying under the Prohibition banner with undisguised intent to aid the Democracy in carrying the State. mote danger of the success of these hostile factions to precipi tate defeat upon the Republican ticket in the present canvass , we deem it proper to warn Ke- publicans against the allurements of I the would-be reformers. "What , we pray , have mechanics , laborers and farmers to expect from a coterie of political hacks -whose recognized ' leaders are Harrison Johnson and Credit Mobilier Davis ? Can any one point out a single distinctive principle in the political platform ot this mongrel reform party that is not more emphatically proclaimed in the Republican plat form. Compare those platforms on the most essential live issue of the day and you will discover that the Republican platform has three specific and distinct planks on the railroad question , while the Inde pendent platform has only one plank , and that plank a mere glit tering generality. On the question of cheap trans portatlon , for instance , the Repub lican platform recommends the con struction of a double track freight railway from the Missouri river to the Atlantic seaboard. The Inde pendents are entirely silent on that point. Other plants covering impor tant issues of the day are entirely ig nored by the Independents. Now while there arc doubtless many honest and well-meaning people within the ranks of this organiza tion , we claim , and we defy contra diction , that the onginators and leaders of this movement were corI rupt , broken-do rvn and disappointed political backs who , having long since lost the confidence of existing political organizations , are deter mined to have a new deal. In Douglas county , and in several other localities , the Independents are mostly made up of members o the defunct Ko-op organization who | are thus seeking to perpetuate their dark lantern order politically. The motives that impelled John son , Davis & Co. to organize the In dependent movement hove also impelled polled Maxfield , Church , Slaughtei & Co. to organize their prohibition crusade. These extremely mora' s reformers were hankcritigafter offici and when they discovered that they had failed to draw , they determined to submerge the Republican partj with their water spout. Anything to beat the Republican party is now their watchword , and they avow their determination to fill the State offices and legislature with Boorbon straights. Against these political guerrillas the Republican party Is now march- . ing , under tried and trusty leaders , confident that the men who have borne the Republican banner yictc riously through so many hard fough . political conflicts will again rally under tne old colors. From rally'i ' quarter comes the cheering news that all the combinations to reston the Nebraska Democracy into pow er arc destined to fail ignominious "WHATEVEII may have been the motive of the Omaha Republican in eendlng a special envoy to inves tigate tbe condition of the Pawnees there is nodoubt that the volumi nous reports published by thai sheet concerning the Pawnees , | are grossly exaggerated. Agen Burgess , who , sa far as wo can learn , enjoys the reputation of being au honest man , writes the following letter to contradict those sensational ' fabrications : GKNOA , NEB. , 6,21,1874. N. W. WELLS Respected Friend : Yours of this date respecting the condition of the Indians Is at hand. have only time > o &ay before the mail , that the present destitute con a dition of the Pawnees mainly indu ced by t.ho raid of the grasshoppers upon their crops , has been the sub a ject of an earnest correspondence with the department far the last two weeks , and 1 have done every thing in my power to arou&e atten tion and awake the action of the government The grave chargesand reflections upon the Agent and others in recent letters , to the Omaha Republican , are so palba- bly misrepresented or so grossly false , that all I can do wuile in offic \ position is to ask all fair-minded people to suspend judgment until I can make a clear explanation , and show the animus of all this sensa tional raid upon the policy of the government and their agents where said parties can find an imaginary er pretext to forestall public opinion by their malicious misrepresentations.

Peru and the Normal School. { Special Correspondence ol the BEB ) PERU , NEMAHA Co. , NEB. 1 September 25th ; 1874. J Before coming here we Tlsited Nemaha City , and in regard to that place we can say that the surround- ngs are beautiful and the situation is fine. There is only one drawback which is the scarcity of inhabitants. The City consists of one store , a blacksmith-shop , and a hotel We stopped here one night as the guest of Mr. Johnson , who keeps the hotel , and makes a clever land lord. In the morning we demol ished half a dozen boiled eggs aud a pound of ham , and then started for Peru. Our route lay over the prai rie back of the bluffs , and for many miles we did not see any thing that looked like corn as we have been accustomed to see it. The drouth has nearly destroyed the crop. I will venture to assert that corn wont average ten bushels to the acre in A emaha County.'c The grass , too , was short and but little hay has been made , still this istr one of the finest farming coun tries in the world , and they tell you big stories in regard to the yield of grain in other years. Fruit is fast becoming a leading productof this region , and this year's yield is ahead of anything hereto fore known. Peaches and grapes are so plentiful that they have but a trifling market va'ue , the supply far exceeding the demand. I have seen good peaches sold in the streets of | Brownville for twenty-live cents per bushel. The Nemaha county peach ( crop is estimated at twenty- live to fifty thousand bushels. Peru Is In the north part of Ne maha county , aud on the banks ot the Mis&ourl river. The town ify more beautifully located than any we have seen in Nebraska. Its business houses are built in a valley , above which rises a huudred hills crowned by neat , home-like dwell ing houses ; but towering high above all stands the pride of Peru , tbo Normal School. The building is elegant and substantial lu appear ance. Prof. W. E. Wilson is now acting principal , aud is assisted by Prof. H. K. Nicholson and a competent corps of teachers. The Professors very kindly and courteously made us welcome , and furnished all the information possi , ble in regard to tbe school. We at- tendedjthe commencement exerci ses in the chapel land heard sever al of the more advanced classes re cite Although Professor Wilson is a very young man to be at the head of so extensive an institution , yet he is evidently master of the situation , and , we believe , that few , if any , can surpass him in winning the con fidence and affection of his students , and inspiring them with his own energy and enthusiasm. There are now 185 students in attendance.and more are coming in all the time , This is a large increase over lost year at this time , and this , too , in spite of the failure of the cropst which has undoubtedly prevented many who intended corning. Had it not been for this it is hardly to be questioned that the school would have been filled to the fullest exten Ja its capacity. The students show an unusual degree of interest ii their work , and are as talented , en ergetic and faithful a collection o ptudents as ve have seen anywhere , They are working hard to fit them selves to teach , and they certainly deserve ] to be encouraged and assis ted , and wo know of no way in which tbe State can better provide for the interests of its future than by affording the students at the Normal School the very best of fa cilities for acquiring a thorough practical education. This leads us to notice the sad con dition of the school in reference to libraries , apparatus , etc. We were surprised to see no libra ry except some Congressiona i' Globe's Patent Office i'i Reports , etc. i i no philosophical apparatus except a few simple pieces the Professor of that department had in some way constructed , and but a small collec tion of minerals , purifications , and a few common shells , to be called a cabinet. The want of these "tools" is keen ly , felt by the faculty and the stu ii dents , and ij to be deeply lamented. i1. The State could well afford to sup 1.ts ply all the school demands in this direction , and it should be done tsy the next legislature , for nowhere could it invest money in educational interests i : for which it would receive quicker J returns. Jii Peru is noted for the enterprise of its business men. Mr. J. P. Bur- dick is one of the largest dealers and keeps in his store an extensive as sortment of goods. Here you can buy a skein of thread or a cable rope , a baby buggy or a threshing machine. Mr. L. S. Frouty has a tin and stove store ; ho also baa a good stock of hardware , wooden ware , ag ricultural implements , and the fa- mom Harrison wa on. Mr. J. L. Fort deals principally in groceries , but he also fells books and station ery and repairs clocks and watches. Mr. W. C. Cuming keeps a fruit and confectionery store , and we can nay from actual knowledge that his cigars and oysters are first-class. Ho also keeps a barber shop. Our landlord , Mr. Gaedc , sets a good table and gives his customer * neat room and soft bed. He also keeps a livery stable. Peru would undoubtedly become large town if it had any railroad communication , but without that , comparatively few people will ever know the magnificent beauty of the pcenery surrounding this lovely vil lage of the hills. To-morrow morning we will again be on the wing , and when we have collected Items enough to make aa article , you shall hear from RAXOER.

The District Fair Industrial Disulay The Races Obit uary Etc. ' ' . ( Correspondent of the BEr.1 Sept. 28. | EDITOR BEB : The District Fair , of which we have heard and read so much , is over , and a short review of what was done may be of some Interest It has been evident for some time that the most interesting feature o the fair , and if we mistake not , that which some of the leading official were most interested in , would be the races. Tuesday , the opening day , noth ing of any interest transpired , and Wednesday was but little better , both being opening days , and not very flattering ones at that. The entries were not extensive , but what few were made , consisting mostly ol vegetables and eatables were very creditable. They had some excel lent squashes , beets , bread , biscuit , etc. ; and with the exception of a small display by Prof.Thompson , of the University , cereals were at a discount. Floral Hall presented no real attractions. The fair , so far as a fair display of the pro ducts of the district are concerned , was a ridiculous failure , and , to be honest , we do not think it would have done credit to Lancaster coun ty alone. Thursday the attendance was somewhat larger than the preceding day , the inducements being an ad dress by Dr. J. N. Converse , and the commencement of the races Dr. Converse's address was charac teristic of its author , a plain , practi cal talk. First , he called attention to the vast area of land enclosed within the borders of the State ; of its pre-ominent fitness foragricultu- ral purposes , and its invigorating , healthy climate ; the excellence and progress of our school system was reviewed and eulogized , and the uuparalelled progress of our State in acquiring wealth and influence ably demonstrated. He then dwelt some length upon the rapidity with \\hich r.iilroads had heretofore been con structed throughout the State ; also of the necessity and benificeuco of the same. Ht criticised that legisla tion which grasps with too ftrong a hand , the money of capitalists invented in railways , and urged the people to consider carefully what was for their best interests in the promibos. He believed that cheap transportation could only come from competition between railroads. He closed witli the declaration that capital and labor properly directed , wei e what the people wanted. All aoknowlcgcd that the address was able and iu many points instruc tive. tive.Iu Iu the afternoon a pacing race was the interesting feature. The contest was between "Duch , " a horse owned by Judge Kinney , and ' 'Pelican , " owned by Mr. Bordeiio , of Lincoln. "Dutch" came out ahead. it Friday , the fourth and last day , was devoted principally to racing. That race , too , narrowed down to a Jiorte from Pawnee county , "David Butler , " and one of Judge Harney'a horses. The Pawnee reformer came out ahead. A second race , free to all , was won by one of Kluney'a horses. As horses from Kansas and Mis souri were' here , not knowing that horses outside the district were ex cluded , the citizens and officers of the society raised a purse of $200 , for < which there will be a contest to day. It is thought to-day's races will be the most interesting of any that has yet taken place. The fair , which was , perhaps , partly due to the misfortunes which have lately been visited so heavily upon per tions of our State , could not be called great success. The horse racing was very creditable * In conclusion , ia the bumble opinion of your cor respondent that some of the officials were more deeply Interested hi the races than in the exhibition. Tbe lawyers of the city are now holding a meeting to consider what steps shall be taken in the way of paying their respects to the memory of A. M. McCaudlass , one of their number who died yesterday , and we G understand have appointed a com mittee on resolutions and to make necessary arrangements. We are not informed as to when the funeral Keep will take place. Much sorrow is than manifested over the untimely death ] him whom all thought would be peed ' for many years. He leaves a wife and two children. The political canvass of this coun will be commenced by both par * No. ties the first of October. The ap pointments are already made. lot ture.
