LET it bo recorded that tbe Dem ocrats arc trying to swamp the Re- publ''f-an legislative ticket by ofler- " of and inducements iug all 8 < t5"ts pledges ments to the temperance faction. This mixing of rD n and water ehould be discountenanced. TuEitEis great tribulation among the polygamous Saints. The Uni ted States Grand Jury , under tbe fearless charge of Judge McKean , have indicted one of Iheir own number for laclvious cohabitation. The saintly sinner is charged with liaving ono wife and four concu bines , which Is , however , only one- tenth of the number attached to Brigham's family circle. of the JTerald that Charles B. Rus- tin proposes to servo if elected to the legislature wo know that Mr. Rus- tln , before starting for California , publicly and emphatically declared that he did not want to bo a candi date and could not possibly serve if elected. tl Nowcan Douglas county afford tlP tlel to be without a representative In the elC' ncxt-Legislature ?

Why shall we fAke S < ench riskawhen good and true men le like Bpaun and Sweczy are ou the. tidc EOUEBOIT 8TBA.EG7. Tun Bourbon organ , or rather the Morton organ , is trying to divide and distract Republicans in this county by insinuations and asser tions that thia or that candidate on tbe Republican legislative ticket , is for or against Thayes , Paddock or Dunby. Now the Morton twin- brother , knows very well that the great majority of Republicans as well as Democrats in Douglas Coun ty would prefer to return John Mil ton Thayer to the United States Senate. The convention that nominated the Republican legislative ticket was overwhelming for Thayer , and the candidates selected by that con vention represent the sentiment of that body. Now , Doctor Mil ler knows as well as wo do , that the overwhelming sentiment in favor of Thayer is sufficient to swamp the Bonrbon barge and send it drifting bottom up down Salt River. The only salvation for the Bourbons bens is in discord and dissention within the Republican ranks , ana this is why the Herald is malting such desperate efforts to create a di version by charging Republican candidates with perfidy toward the man known to be the people's choice for United States Senator. MoAEDLE. NOBODY claims that James Mc- Ardle is not a fair County Commis sioner , but ever > body knows he ia altogether too fond of that office. McArdle is a shrewd politician of the old Democratic school. He is a Granger , and we believe has been a Ko-op , all for the purpose of Insur ing a re-election. This has been so transparent that even the most stupid could not fail to take notice. When the Inde pendents held their Convention , a near relative of McArdle ( his broth er ) secured his nomination on that ticket. The reformers then and there assembled did not object , al though they knew that McArdJe was a Democrat , and would ba the Democratic nominee. This was in violation of a declared principle by which these sham re formers had pledged themselves to oppose everybody that was known to be an active member of sither the Democratic or Republi can organization. Tbe Repubacani have nominated a true and trust worthy man" in Valentine L. Thomas , and it is to be hoped the people uf Douglas county will re buke this unprincipaled trickery by Which McArdlo aud his personal friends seek to secure his reelection. Tire downward tendency of Mor ton stock 19 very perceptible on our streets to-day. After next Tuesday it will be entirely worthless. ARRANGEMENTS are almost per fected for the burial of Tuxbury , Savage , Eatherly & Co. , which is to take place on Tuesday nest. The cortege and mourners will be com posed exclusively of rock-rooted , fossilized Bourbons. AWAY with apathy ana indhTer- ence ! Every true Republican should remember that everybody could not possibly have been nominated. Let them overlook these disappoint ments , and join the men wh'o are wrestling with the common enemy. OUR Republican morning contem porary warns the people against false headed tickets. The BEE would warn them specially against false tailed ones. The greatest danger in the make-up of bogus tickets will doubtless bo in the county ticket , which is really the great bone of contention in tbe impending con. liicc. THE Bourbon candidates for the Legislature met in solemn , secret : ouclave last night The levy made jy the bummer brigade caused an mtburst of pent-up indignation , vhich reached its climax when an imissary of the Post demanded sev- jral hundred more to keep the Dem- > cratio paper straight. Thin was oo much even for the most liberal if Bourbons , and a volley of oaths iould be distinctly heard just about hat time two blocks away. Soldiers who fought for the Union vill uot fail to honor "Dick" liich- rdi , who fought gallantly in the ite war. Soldiers who fought gainst him , if there are any such , rill do likewise. The brave always loner the brave. Herald. i Soldiers who fought for the Union . 'ill not fall to observe that they are decided minority in the ranks of ie Nebraska Bourbon party. The oys In gray are there , however , in ill force , and upon them the Dem- cratic candidates depend chiefly > r election. HON. SILAS GABBER , the next overnor of Nebraska , will make Is llrst public appearance in Orna- i , at the Academy of Music to- lorrow , and the people of Douglas mnty will have an opportunity to e aud hear the man whom the rerald takes such pleasure to slan- > r ane malign. Doctor Miller , who d not know anything when Gar- tr invited him to testify before the ? gislatlve Investigating Commlt- e , will now have a chance to tell to lila face. A SORE-HEADED Scandinavian , ho , as wo are reltably Informed , the same Individual that occupied seat In the legislature four years ; o , seeks to ventilate his wrath rough the Herald for the sole pur- ise of Injurlnp tbe party that once tvated him to a position which en Wa countrymen say he did not 8 1 with remarkable credit. Now we should have been pleased al support a competent and reliable altc andinavlan upon the Republican tcd d ; rlslative ticket , but we consider ro B course pursued by this person a roC cidedly unjutitiable , THE CAMPAIGN. " S i The campaign is gradually draw ing to a close. From every quar ter comes the assurance that the people of Nebraska , will endorse the Republican nominees byatleas tea thousand majority , aud all the efforts of the Independent bush whackers and prohibition fanatics to destroy the popular confidence in the great party of freedom , justice and equality are proving abortive. The fratricidal blows aimed by recreant soreheads and chronic office seekers at the Re publican party are falling harmless and producing no visible effect. Western N ebraska is virtually unan imous in the support of the Repub lican party. Central Nebraska promises to return greater majorities than they have ever returned. The eastern and northern counties , where the conflict is the most animated , will hold their own , and there is now every probability that , the majority of Judge Crounse will not fall be low 12,000. Such is at least the estimate of well informed political leaders who have taken the pains to feel the pub lic pulse and analize popular senti ment In Douglas county the con test Is narrowing down to a struggle for the county ticket TheJDemoe- racy will doubtless seek to trade Tuxbury , Savage , Jordan or any other man on their Stale ticket for Repubh'can votes for Rus tin , Goodrich , Richards & Co. Right here is the great danger for Repub licans , and we would warn them against all such foolish bargains. The Democracy knows full well that their only hope of success is in some such an arrangement , but , we apprehend , they will not bo able to coosumate their scheme. The campaign , as far as the BEE can prognosticate , never looked more promising than to-day , providing Republicans will not allow factional prejudices and personal dislikes to swerve them from their duty. REMEMBER every vote for the Democratic legislative ticket is an indirect vote for Morton. BY the way , Is Prank Murphy , going to the legislature for tbe ben efit of the old ferry monopoly 1 Don't all speak at onco. ONCE more , and for the last time , we warn Republicans against ne glecting to have their names regis tered. , THE Chicago Tribune commenting upon the practical workings of the Quaker policy , repeats substantially the views expressed by the BEE last week when it says : " The in consistency of the Indian policy is very clearly 'llustrated by the man ner in which Satanta and Big Tree have been treated. After commit ting a series of the most atrocious murders , for which a white man would have been hanged long ago , they were airested , tried , convicted , and sent to the Penlatentiary. Upon promise of good behavior , and at the intercession of one of the Quaker superintendents , wh.o held , himself responsible for them , they were re leased. How well they behaved is shown by the fact that it 13 newfound found necessary to arrest them to keep them from another series of attrooities they were about to perpe trate. Would it not be well to hang them , or call upon their surety , and thus settle this particular feature of th& Indian question. ' ' The Sarpy County Seat War. PAPILLION , NEBRASKA , October 8th , 1874 EDITOR OMAHA BEE : Quite an excitement is prevailing throughout Sarpy county in regard to the locating of the County Seat , rhe fight seems to bo between Sarpy "enter and Papillion. The editor of the Sentinel of this place , has been subHshing communications from Sarpy Center , in regard to locating : he County Seat at that place , vhioh seems not to set well on the itomacha of the citizens of Papillion. Dhia morning nearly all the citizens > f this place entered the office of the Ssnlinel , aud informed the editor hat they would uo longer support lim , and for himto discontinue heir subscription and advertise- nents. Sarpy Center on hearing his , came over aud invited the ed- tor to Immediately remove his ffice to that place , ( the future i bounty Seat ) which invitation I hink he will accept Politics isvery quiet , the County bat question being the only thing bat seems to agitate the minds of lie people.

By Josh Billings. LUV. I.UV i * a pashun that iz eazier felt thin deskribed. It is common to the yung , middle-aged , and even old fellows hav thought they had the diseaze. It generally makes viktims feel phoolisb , and akt phoolish , too. Sumtimes it brakes out sudden , without euny warning , and then agin it oums on slow , like the ru- matiss. I hav known some pashunts to be in luv for six months and did not kno exackly what did ail them , and then I hav known other cases whare the partys though they wuz in luv , and nothing wuz the matter ov them all the time , only they wuz out of humor. Bumthing to do allwuskures theze kind of attacks. When a person really iz in luv they aint fit for anything else. It unfits a farmer and a black smith for bizziness just az much az it doz a student at law or a boarding skool miss. Genuine luv never fastens its fangs onto a fello being but once ; he of ten gets nipped by it before and af terward , but the fust skar sticks to him lor life. Sum people fall in luv every nine ty daya , just for the pbun ov the thing. Rt-al luv won't divide its posses- shun ov the heart with en'ny other ov the pashuns ; it drives out ambi tion , aud takes the stlffulng out of pride and vanity , A man iz never more pure than when he iz sensibly in luv. Luv iz a great humanizer ; it * makea the rude az gentle az a duv , and polishes up the rustik like three months' tuition at a dansing skool. It iz hard work to be in luv and not akt phoolish ; but luv Iz the only thing i know'that makes pholly ex cusable.v Wo allwusslaff at tht. yung , when they are in luv , and pity the old ones. J , An old man desperatelyln luv iz az helpless az a lost child. * He wanders about heedless , not knowing where he iz , uor whare he iz going to. n What sense he ever did hav haz left him , and he won't take nobody's advice. We could spare allmost enny other pashun ov tno harte better than we coul 1 luv , altho it haz made az much trubble in this world us enny ov the SLANDER. Slander is a He , and kan travel faster than dalight kan. \Vbare it kurns from it Iz often impossible to tell , and wharo it will go to uoboddy knows. There It nothing too pure for It to feed upon , and thare is no slch thing aa satisfying its appotight. It is concfliveu in iniquity and born , in feekresy , and will live and gro fatt whare truth will starve to deth. It iz a foundling that the world alwuss stands reddy to adopt and send on its way rejoicing , with a iree pass aud full letters of credit. It haz fastened its dedly fangs upon the innocent and haz made virtew herself tremble hi her pro- sence. Slander is the coward's refugeand the devil's logic.SLOTH. SLOTH. Sloth will eat the core out uvenny man and leave him nothing but a shell to inhabit. It envellops like a drearq and eats like a kankcr , It haz destroyed more hopes than misfortune haz , and wharever it settles leaves its mark like a kloud at noonday. Sloth is a syren , and he wh.o lis tens to her songs will wake up to despair. STTKCESS , It iz az hard work to define a suk cess az an accident. STu can't locate a sukcess enny more than yu kan the north pole. It haz no rules and knows no laws , and , like a mouse , pops out of one hole into another , when and where you least expect it. Menny a sukcess haz crowned a forlorn hope , and menny a one haz bickeued and died almost in the very arms of fruition. The only tru way to define a suk cess is to sukceed , and then tell how It happened. Energy and common sense are the privy counselors of sukcesa ; but they often liev no control over it , [ brsukcees is a vagrant , and will icl and go wharo it pleazos. REVENUE , Revenge is tbe basest parshun ov the harte , and to gratify it iz az low Jown az a man kin git .Revenge iz the dividing line be tween the human and the brute , To forgive iz the highest priced hing that a man ken do ; it is the icarest to being divine that enny nan kan reach. To be revenged is a brute's pre- ogatlff. Base kowardice iz the mother ov evenge , and its only excuse is an- jer. Revenge Is no viktory , for the au- her ov it iz alwuss more injured ban its victim. No man ever wreaked hiz ven- ; ence yet , and lived long onuS af- er it to kontemplate the result , but raz bitterly ashamed ov it. There never haz lived on this arth , nor never will , a beinc pure nuft to be entitled to the privilege f revenging a wrong. God iz the only One who haz a Ight to be revenged , and he never esorts to it. CHARITY. Charity iz a bjessed prlvllega. It feu poor human uatur up to the jvel ov the aiigells , and sheds the ght ov Heaven around our path- ay. It iz the most butiful ov all the npulses ov the heart , and the eaz- estoue to execute. Thare iznot a thought that goes it from the heart kindly to wel- um a child of sorrow , but what iz red i ted in the grate book ov ever- sting life under the bed ov charl- Thare iz not a gift , even ov kold ater ; thare iz not a self-sacrifice ov my kind ; thare Iz not a verteuous ish , nor a kind hope , but what in be counted among the jewels ov larity. I he heart iz the birth place and > me ov chanty , the head should s. its confidante and adviser , and e hand its ready servant. Charity hath no market-plaae sre , nor hereafter. Thare iz menny C penny in the grate box that will , unt out brighter at the last day an enny dollar that iz thare , (0 * ° aportant to Pension Agents.
