THE next constitution of Nebras
ka should provide strong safeguards
against the abuse of the paruonlng
power.
GENERAL BANKS is determined
to try his popularity once more as a
Liberal - Democratic-what-is-it-can-
didate for Congress. If he is beaten
this time he will become a political
dead duck , whose resurrection will
require the interposition ol a mira
cle.
THE bottom appears to have en
tirely fallen out of the Bourbons anc
Orleanists In France , In the recent
French elections the struggle for
supremacy was almost entirely eon
lined between the Republicans and
Bonapartists. The out-come shows
these parties to be very evenly hal
anced.
ACCORRDI O to the New York
Tribune , "the reoort of the commis
sion appointed to examine the Union
Pacific Railroad is very favorable
It states that the company hasspen
on construction and equipment
$2,200,000 more than the $1,380,000
which Secretary Cox's ' committee
of eminent citizens regarded as a
needed expenditure. "
QEX. LOXOSTREET , who by the
way , is Just now one of the besi
hated men In the South , made
speech recently in which he made
the following declarations touching
his position : "I suppose I am pretty
cordially hated by a certain prescrip
tive class of Southerners , but thej
cannot be helped. Men can't all
think alike , and the trouble with
the Southern people always Jias
been that they wont tolerate any
difference of opinion. If God Al
mighty had Intended all men to
think just alike , He might as well
have made but one man. I have
decided and acted as I thought duty
required , and other men are at lib
erty to do the same. My opinion
Is that the only true solution for
Southern troubles is for the people
to accept cordially and in good faith
all the results of the war , including
the reconstruction measures , the
acts of Congress , negro suffrage , &p.
and live up to them like men. I
they would do this , and encourage
Northern immigratioj , and trea
fill men fairly , whites and blacks
the troubles would soon be over , ant
in less than flvp years the South
would bo in the enjoyment of great
er prosperity than ever b0tore. "
HOME EUUS.
Nebraska baa iiZtl her election
and therefore our oomnICnts
purely political topics cannot bfl ! !
construed into mere campaign bun-
comb. It is now and always has
been our aim to treat political Issues
with that Independence and impar
tiality which becomes a fearless and
unbiased journal.
One of the principal issues upon
which the Democracy expect to ob
tain control of the National Gov
ernment Js what their organs fa
cetiously designate as "HomeRule. "
Now , home rule in Jreland means
the right of the people to loca ) self-
government , while home rule as In
terpreted by Democrats means the
right of one race to oppress and subJugate -
Jugate the other.
The ex-rebel merchants of Shreveport -
port have just furnished the country
a practical definition of home rule.
Emboldened by the recent Bourbon
victories in the Northwest , they
have deliberately entered Into a com
pact by which their negro employes
should be forced to choose between
starvation and voting the White
league ticket. In other words ,
they have issued an order that ev
ery colored laborer or mechanic who
would dare to vote the Republican
ticketjBhouldjbe dismissed by his em
ployers. And this cruelmockerythis
deliberate suppression of honest
political conviction Is the boasted
home rule of which Bourbon organs
prate with such boundless enthusi
asm. Supposing the merchants or
manufacturers of Omaha , Chicago
or New York should organize a com
bination to direct and control the
votesof their employes in favor of or
against any party , by threatening
them with a loss of employment
and Its disastrous consequences ?
Would not such a combination be
followed by universal indignation
and a spontaneous revolt of the in
dustrial classes ? Would not home
rule thus defined become the most
odious terra io every "liverty-lov-
ing Ameilcan citizen possessed of
manhood and self-respect.
A DOUBLE JOKE.
In the campaign t\vo years ago
llosewater printed some tickets and
delivered them to the Republican
Central Committee , but they were
found to be worthless because the
name of Lorenzo Crounse , for Con
gress , was left out , either purposely
or blunderingly , and the Republican
oifice Was called upon to print those
which were finally used.
In this campaign Hon. Lorenzo
Crounse was assessed $150 by the
Republican Central Committee to
go towards paying the legitimate ex
penses of a campaign , and he left a
check with friend Rosewater , one of
the committee , payable to the or
der of Joel T. Grittln , another com-
mitteeman. The two latter arrang
ed that Rosewater should retain $50
as back pay for those worthless tick
ets , and etcetra , and pay the $100
over to the Douglas County Repub
lican Committee.
We never got our pay for the
tickets which were used , and Rosewater -
water got his pay from Judge
Urounse for those which were not
used because Judge Crounse'a name
was left out This explains why
some people are anxious to be com-
mltteeinen , and why we did not our
honest dues. We cannot play the
grab game. Republican.
For downright , deliberate and ha
bitual lying , commend us to the
rock-rooted fossil that has by some
inscrutable Providence been clothed
with the power to mismanage the
mQtumotb collapsed. Never in our
journalistic experjenpp have we
heard of a more striking instance of
huoian hoggishness than was dis
played by this breeder of rival jgews-
papers In connection with the mat
ter which he has taken such pahis
to misrepresent.
The facts in the pase are substan
tially as follows : Two years ago
the Republican $ tate Central Com-
mitte awarded the contract of ticket
printing to three newspapers , viz :
Republican and BEE of Omaha , and
the .M ebraska City Press. Eacl i pa
per was to furnish the tickets for
one Judicial district , thus : The Press
was directed to print those of the
first Judicial district , the Republican
those of the second , and the BEB
those of the third judicial district
It appears there was some misun
derstanding touching the new act
of Congress governing the election
of Congressmen , and tbe , first In
stalment of tickets printed at the
BEE ofUpe were printed without the
name of Lorenzo Grounse , on the
iupposltlon that a separate ballot
and separate ballot boxes were to be
used for the Congressional ballots
When the mistake was discovered
} t was promptly rectified.
The mfsprinted tickets were de
stroyed befqro a single ticket had
gene out of the offlcef Meantime ,
an ofllcoug { fntermedler , who acts
as private secretary to Senator
Hitchcock , but had no authority
whatever In this matter , requested
Balcombo to print the tickets for
which the BEE had a contract.
Upon learning this fact and
before the tickets order
ed by this impudent Intermeddler -
dler had been printedwe made a
personal appeal to Balcombe not to
interfere with our contract True to
his hoggish nature , this gifted pat
ronage-grabber , Instead of gomply-
Ing with our request , determined to
swindle us out of our legitimate
contract.
Thus it happened that two setts
of tickets were printed for the third
judicial dlstrjpt. Those forwarded
by tjjp Republican wera , however ,
not put Into use , simply because the
greedy manager had omitted the
proper legislative and county offi.
cers while the tickets furnished by
the BEE were correct in every par
ticular.
When the claims of the respective
printers were brought before the
committee , it was discovered that
Balcombe had gobbled several hun
dred dollars for printing the celebra-
pd Ffirnas-Lett c'rculars , without
authority from tb.3 committee , for
which he had succeeded in drawing
pay under misrepresentation. Furr
thermore , his bogus ticket bill for
the third judicial district , was pro
nounced a fraud while the bill of
ihe BEE was approved. And now
pomes the sequel of what Balcombe
is pleased to term a double Joke.
Balcombe's flank movement on
the committee fund forced the com
mittee to Issue a due bill to the BEE
which was held for over two years ,
and trfially redeemed by Mr. Grif
fin without jutorest. There are still
some $30 due the Bjjp from the old
committee , and we shall consider
ourselves extremely lucky if we over
recover it.
In conclusion , we would advise
the mammoth missmanager to send
his bill to Adams Yost & Co. They
ordered the job , and they ought to
pay for it. If they do , tne double
joke will be complete.

PAWNE&CITY , NEB.
Octoberl3/74. ,
Pawnee City , with its quiet settled
air , and its substantial stone houses
and pavements , bring to the mind
the old New England towns , which
it resembles in many respects ; for
although it has a population of near
ly one thousand , there is not a sa
loon in the place , while on the other
hand the churches and schools are
the pride of the town. _
The surrounding country is very
much like all the rest of southeast
ern Nebraska , gentle , undulating
prairie , diversified with well-wood
ed valleysthrough which flow rapid
streams.
The soil is of the richest descrip
tion , and although the grasshoppers
and drouth have destroyed nearly
all the farm products , excepting
wheat and fruit , yet the farmers are
by no means discouraged , for in
past years vegetation has flourished
here with an almost tropical luxuri
ance. In the old settled counties no
one thinks of leaving. It is only
the new comers in the border coun
ties who are growing faint-hearted
over the warm reception the grass
hoppers have given them , but with
the generous assistance which their
kind-hearted neighbors of the river
counties are now extending to them
all will be cared for thjs winter who
will need it , and next year they
maycet as fine a crop as ever glad
dened the heart of the honest , hard
working farmer.
Some of the best cultivated farms
in Nebraska are in Pawnee county ,
of which Pawnee City is the county
seat and business center. Nearly
all brashes of trade are represen
ted hero , and the following business
houses are worthy of special notice.
Air. Q. AJ. . Moss has tv large
stone building on the northwest
corner of Washington street and
Broadway. He keeps In stock dry
goods , groceries , boots and shoes
and everything else which is gene
rally needed.
J. B. Ervin , north of public
square , has an immense stock of all
kinds of goods and does a proportionate
tionate business ,
D. & J. Hazels , 65 Broadway , also
keep a general store and have a large
and increasing trade.
Mr. James Parish does a thriving
business in the grocery line.
Mr. Wm. Jacobs also sells a large
amount of groceries , besides attend
ing to his duties as postmaster.
G. L. JS'lchols , M. D. , keeps a first-
class drug store and also practices
his profession ,
The hardware business is repre
sented by the firm of E. and J.
Deur. They also keep on hand an
extensive assortment of stoves and
tinware.
All the latest "agonies" are fur
nished the ladies by Miss Lizzie B.
Stewart , at her neat' , well-stocked
millinery and fancy goods empori
um.
um.Mr. . Howard Ellis showed us some
very good specimens of photog
raphy , and we can say that as n
countenance counterfeiter he is
good.Mr.
Mr. J. L. Turner is a watchmaker
and jeweler , and enjoys the reputa
tion of being a first-class workman.
His stock of goods is well assorted
and includes everything imaginable
in the way of fashionable orna
ments , clocks , watches , &c.
Mrs. Plummer keeps a very neat
little store , which is well stocked
with groceries , confectionery , &c.
Tart & Wills have the best stock
of sqddles , harness , &c. , to be found
In the country. Their work is good ,
and speaks for Itself.
Mr. C. H. Curtis , opposite the
post office , has the only bakery and
restaurant In town , and will have a
cozy little oyster parlor fixed up for
lovers of bivalves.
Mr. Jacob Weber has a first-class
cigar manufactory , and is turning
out largp quantities of the fragrant
weed'in that shape which smokers
like best.
We have on several occasions had
our chin scraped by Wm. A. Miller ,
the tonsorial artist of Pawnee City.
He dues it skilfully and scientifi
cally.Mr.
Mr. Jacob Fulton has a fine as-
Eortmen of furniture , and does busi
ness in accordance with the rule of
quick sales and small profits.
Mason & Qoodale have two large
well-fitted up shops , where they
carry on the blacksmithinjr and
wagon-makingj business. We no
ticed a long legged mule in the shop
which 'some sanguinary individual
had brought there 'to be sho'd , We
waited around that shop for an hour
in hopes of getting a first-class sen
sational Item. We have often read
ol the graceful ease with which
mules were wont to demolish fool
hardy blacksmiths , and as this one
looked particularly vicious , we
WOited impatiently for the coming
derio'ueraent , butg ( | ] mujewas shod
and , alas for us , the man who done
it never got a scratch. We have
lost confidence in mules. The ani
mal looks ambitious. Had be one
spark of the true American spirit ,
he would never allowed the time to
pass Idly by when a reporter , pencil
in band , was stand ing'by ready to
make him the immortal hero of a
newspaper article.
Mr. J. D. Ualligher keeps a good
blacksmith shop and turns oil a
large quantity of work.
Mr. John Porter has a boot and
shoe manufactory on the west side
of the Public Square , and he knows
how to build a leather corucrib.
Mr. J. F. Kinney takes the front
rank Iu bis profession ( the law ) and
It is said that ho thoroughly under
stands the whole ten points.
Mr. J. B. Grico " k Js also a rising
young lawyer. '
Dr. P. is a physician and surgeon
of long experience and acknowl
edged ability , but unfortunately for
him the climate is too healthy , and
it is only occasionally that some lu
natic dreams he is sick.
Pawnee City has a neat well edi
ted paper ( thp Republican ) which
receives that appreciation and pat
ronage \vlnch is only bestowed on
live , spirited journals. Mr. A. E.
Haaslcr , the editor , has our thanks
for courteous favors.
A kind word for our worthy land
lord is particularly his due , for a
more whole-souled , obliging gentle
man than Mr. Abbott is seldom
found ; and , gentle reaaer , if yon
should ever stray away off down to
Pawnee City remember this , that
the Farmers' Home la a house
where you will find a bounteous
table , spacious rooms , luxurious beds
and all the comforts of a well order
ed home ; and then when you are ar
ready to settle your bill you will be
astonished at the absolutely trifling
amount which you are to nay.
Pawnee City is eight miles south
of Table Bock , and is connected
with it by a stage line , owned by
Mr. Sullivan , who also has the best er
livery stable in town. To Messrs.
Sullivan and C. C. Boberts our "
thanks are due for many kind fa
vors.
vors.Mr. . James H. Bray Is a grain
dealer and general speculator , and
as an energetic business man has
few equals. Mr. Bray made a con [
tract , a year or two ago. to deliver
several thousand bushels ot wheat if
in a glveu length of time ( which has
not yet expired. ) The price to be
paid for the wheat was one dollar
per bushel. Mr. Bray is now filling
his contract ( Market price of
wheat sixty cents per bushel. ) The
man who gets the wheat wants a part
ner : , and is willing to give a half In
terest , or even more , in the profits
to be .derived from that wheat.
Mr.D. C. Stratton keeps a large
stock of groceries , queensware , &c. ,
and is doing an extensive business.
Mr. Stratton has been shipping every
winter , large quantities of game to
the Omaha market , but he has
found that it costs him just about as
much to get the goods to Omaha as
to Chicago. The A. & N. R. R. dis
criminate against Omaha , and in
favor of St Joseph , and makes no
direct connection with Omaha
roads , and right here \v e will say a
few words in regard to that propos
ed branch of the Trunk railroad.
Some of the advantages to be deriv
ed from it were mentioned in our
Humboldt letter , but the printer
who set up the type had probably
been up late with his girl the night
before , and consequently got the ar
ticle rather mixed up. That Hum
boldt letter had , by' actual count ,
just twenty-seven typographical
errors. Now , the writer of this can
make mistakes enough without any
assistance. The great trouble , how
ever , was that the propose \ railroad
was made to run from Kansas City
via Huraboldt to Brownvllle or .Ne
braska City. Now , what will people
ple think of a proposition to build a
road in the shape of a rainbow ? We
will insist ou having . -
ejthe.an apol
ogy frorn , that typo , or an increase
in salary.
A rallflad running from Pawnee
City ( not Kansas City ) to Brown-
ville , Nebraska City , or PJatts-
mouth is what Qfnaba needs. Take
glance at the map , and you will
see the proposed line will rim
through a country which Js too far
from the trunk roitk to patronize it ,
and consequently it wiil in future ,
as in the past , tra-lo with * St. Joe ,
with which U has direct connection.
Pawnee City 1 $ just eighty miles
from St , Joe , and when this feeder
Is built it will be not more than
eighty miles to Omaha by rail
Somebody told ino the distance thai
a man had to travel at present to
reach Omaha by rail , but J forget
what it was exactly somewhere
near three hundred or three thou
sand-miles. This country is thick
ly settled , and It * trade is immense
and steadily Increasing. South
eastern Nebraska Is the wealthiest
portion of the State , and Omaha will
be lacking in enterprise If she lets
other towns , with Inferior advan
tages , monopolize the patronage o ;
this part of the country.
Thlrty-ejght mjlps of railroad wil
connect Pawnee City wjth Brown-
ville and th e trunk road , and no
over sixty would be required 1.
Plattsmouth were fixed upon for the
junction. Ample assistance will be
given by towns and counties along
the route ; General Rernlck , of Paw
nee City , offers to build one mile o
the road , and make a present of it t (
any company that will build the
rest. Omaha isjustly proud of h.er
railroads , but if she woujfl beagre'a
ctty she m.u t extend her arms t > tll.
farther , and gather in commerce
from every avallablesQuroe ,
The election passed off very quiet
ly , and there was so little interes
manifested that even the judges anc
clerks of election had no Idea the
next morning what majorities were
given for anybody , and so we aver
aged the thing and called It In our
dispatch one hundred majority for
the Republican party.
The flower fadcth and the grass
wlthereth , but the glory of the Re
publican party endureth forever.
