In the calling of conventions for the elec tion of delegates , committees of the several States are recommended to invite all repub lican electors and all other voters , without regard to past political differences or pre- rious party affiliations ; who are opposed to reviving sectional issues and desire to pro mote friendly feelings and permanent har mony throughout the country , by enforcing and maintaining all constitutional rights of every citiion. including full and free excr- _ cise of the right of gufiiMge , without intimi dation and fraud ; who are in favor of con- tinned prosecution and punishment of all official dishonesty and of an economical administration or the government by hon- st , faithful and capable officers ; who are in favor of making such reforms in the govern ment us experience may from time to time Bnggeet ; who are opposed to impairing the credit of the nation by depreciating , any of its obligations , and in favor of sustaining in every way the national faith and financial honor ; who hold that the common school yitem is the nursery of American liberty , and should be maintained absolutely free from sectarian control ; who believe that to the promotion of these ends the direction of the government should continue to be confided : to thoto who adhere to the princi ples of 1776 and support them as incorpora ted In the constitution and laws , and who are in faror of recognizing and strengthen- ng the fundamental principle of national unity in this centennial annivarsary of the Jjirth of the rcpublla. K. D. MOEQAX. Ch'n Republican National Com. E. CHANDLER , Secretary. PROCLAMATION. Congress passed a joint resolu tion approved March 13 , ISTo.recommending the people of the several States , that they assemble in their several counties or towns on the approaching centennial anniversary of our National Independence , and that they cause to have delivered on such day , an historical sketch of f aid county or town from its formation , and that a copy of such sketch may be filed in print or manuscript in the clerk's office ; of said county , and an additional copy in print or manuscript be Clod in the office of librarian of congress to the intent , that a complete record may thus be obtained of the progress of our institu tions during the first contenuflil of their ez- itence. Therefore , in compliance with inch reso lution. I do recommend that the people of this State assemble in their several towns and counties on the4th day of July.1876.and that they cause to have delivered an histor ical sketch of said town or county from ifs formation , and that copies thereof be filed in the office of the county clerk of said conn ty. and in the office of the librarian of con gress , as by said resolution requested. In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused to be nffizel the great veil of the State of Nebraska. ( SEAL. ] Done at Lincoln , the Capital.the 25th day of April. A. D. . ISli &j the Governor : SILAS UARBER. BRUKO TzacnncO Secretary of State. THE city of Denver ha3 appro priated $3,000 toward the centennial 4th of July celebration. A GREAT many Insults have been heaped upon Mr. Frederick Doug lass during Ills lire time , but none perhaps so hard to be borne as sending - ing him to Cincinnati In company with .BOSS Shepherd. THE effort to employ Chinese cheap labor at North Adams , Mass. , has proved a failure. It will be a long time before another at tempt will be made to import thess almond-eyed orientals to take the plane of skilled mechanics. IF Postmaster General Jewell would devote u little more time to investigating into the number of useless sub-officials in the mall ser vice and reduce some of the $4,000 postofSce salaries to rates proportionate tionate with those of citizens in mercantile and other vocations , tnere might be 110 occasion for Con gress to increase newspaper postal rates. IN the past few days we have re ceived numerous letters from va rious sections of the State contain ing hearty expressions of approval at the fearless course of the BEE in exposing dishonesty and trickery. These letters , in the face of the ma- Ueloua personal libels hurled at its Editor by those engaged in the de fense of public plunderers and polit ical knaves , are a source of consid erable pride to urf. They bear evi dence that the masses are awaken ing to a realization of their interests and propose to take an active part henceforth in the political affairs of the State. The extract from the correspondence in the last issue of lite Grand Island Independent that appears on the third page , is one of tih a largo number of letters of the v same character that are appearing 8 ] jn our State exchanges. f ( IT la currently reported that tlie ClP Cltl Omaha Republican is about to em tl bark in another tla new departure a is : Instead of advocating Senator lx Hitchcock's claims for re-election , which has been found to be up-hill work , the managers now propose to raise the banner of REFORM and for bi the present at least drop his name th altogether. This , It Is expected , tbCl will enable them to rope in a large Cl number of deluded followers , in whom they expect to influence in laver of legislative candidate ? , in supposed to be either unpledged or 812 inclined to follow a third party , ini who , if Hitchcock cannot make the po art ripple , is to be the recipient of his strength. In other words ther.e is to be an alliance between the two I parties to make euro of one or the ( dn .other's success. As there is consid as erable room for reform in the dilap lin idated'senatorial organ , a departure in favoring reform in every respect ga will come with good grace from that an quarter , coi WOOL MAXCFACTOniXG. An exclusively agricultural com munity can never become wealthy or populous. This is a proposition which we do not propose to discuss , for the truth of it will appear to any one who will stop to reason upon the subject. There are many kinds of manufacturing which never can be made proIItable in this State , among which are all those that de pend for their success on cheap fuel. We cannot dig our crude material from the mines , or cut it in the for est. We must produce it in some other way. It must be wool , bides , flaxseed , or something of that na ture. ture.For For the production of wool no State in the Union has the facilities of Nebraska , and none oan surpass her in her natural advantages for manufacturing it. Salt Creek , the Wahoo.theBig and Little Papillion , have numerous water powers , with in a radius of fifty or sixty miles of Omaha , which would run large woolen mills all the year around , and give employment to thousands of workman , who , on account of the cheapness of western produce , could lay up money upon the sala ries upon which they now dntg out a miserable existence m the over crowded villages of the east , where every article of food is brought hundreds of miles from these west ern prairies lor their consumption , over railroads charging heavy rates of freight. Already Illinois and Iowa have utilized the few water powers those States possess for the manufacture of woolen good * , beoides large num bers of mills which run by steam , many of which import a large part of their raw material from Colora do , New Mexico and South Ameri ca. ca.All All that is wanted to innke the fame and wealth of Nebraska , as a manufacturing Stele , is to improve the advantages which nature has given her. 17XCEIITAIXTIES OF POLITICS. The New York Times considers the result of tno Presidential cam paign as not altogether certain to the Republicans in the event of an unwise selection upon the Presi dential ticket. New York , Penn sylvania , Ohio , Illinois , Indiana and Missouri , the six most popu lous Spates of the Union , are all more or less dependent for victory to the .Republican tty on tue character of the candidates uoITm" ated at Cincinnati. The Times thus reviews the situation : ' 'Take first our own State. I cannot be carried by a candidate whose record will not bear inspec tlou. In 1872 Governor Dix had j _ majority of 53,451 over so good n man as Senator Kernan. In 1S73 no Republicans were elecied excepi those who received the support o the Liberal Republicans. In 187- ; Gov. Tilden had 50,317 majority over Gov. Dix , and in 1S75 the Democratic State ticket received an average majority of about fifteen thousand. Pennsylvania is a State of uncer tain politics. Though Gen. Grant had 137,548 majority over Mr. Gree- ley in 1872 , twoye&rs later the Dem ocrats elecied the Lieutenant Gov ernor by a majority of 4,079 , and Gov. Hartranft's majority last year was only 12,030 , or two per cent o the whole number votes. Ohio is also u State which the lie- publicans cannot afford to experi ment with. The majority last year against Gov. William Allen was on ly 5,544 , and in 1873 that worthy was elected by 817 votes. There was a Democratic majority in 1874 for Secretary of State cf 17,202. Indiana , two years ago , was car ried by the Democrats by 17,252 votes. Grant's majority in 1872 was but 22,515 , and in October ol that year Gov. Hendricks was elect ed by a majority of 1,148. It may strike some Republicans as ridiculous to call Illinois doubtiu ] under any circumstances , but at the last election , two years ago , the Republicans were le't in a minority in both Lrauches of the Legislature , and their candidate for superintend ent of Public Instruction was de feated by 30,500 votes. There were three parties in the field. The vote for treasurer gave the republican strength as 163,024 , that of the "op position at 128,169 , and of the re formers at 75,580. Of course , there is a complete change In the political situation since 1874 , but who knows what further changes there may be ? " TUE Minneapolis and St. Paul Journals are having a very animated discussion as to the relative popula tion of the two cities. According to the Minneapolis Irllune , the late directories of both cities give as the result 10,999 names to Minneapolis , and and 9,927 in St. Paul popula tion. Tliis , allowing 3 } to each name , leaves Minneapolis 3,749 ahead. And now the St. Paul people ple charge the compilers with hav ing leaned towaid the side which : patronized them most , which seems to be Minneapolis. EX-SPEAKER BI VINE , according to this morning's telegrams , has has been suddenly prostrated by what Is , BO far supposed , to be a alight case of sun-stroke. This un- ) Cortimate spell of tickncss will cause ) onsiderable nnrehenslon on the part of his numerous fr uds ibroughout the country , especially " Its occurrence comes a few days fa of ' Mjfore the Cincinnati convention. THERE has been a loud call for lusiness men to take part in poli- Ics , and not let the bummers run ho political parties , on which the Jhlcago Times gets off the follow- ng sharp squib ; br The demand for "business men fpolitlcs" should not be empha- ized. What with buying and sell- tei iB of delegations and all sorts of Ju olitical trading it seems that there too many "business men in pol- Ics already.

[ Correspondence of the BEE , ! * SALT LAKE CITV , Juue 7. It is exceedingly regretablu that nothing apparently can be done in this Territory that is not perfumed with the odors of violent partizan- ship. The fact has been perma nently brought into notice during the past few days through the report of the committee appointed by the grand jury to examine the books , records and accounts of the corpor ation of this city. The grand jury is composed , with one exceptiou , of non-Mormons , and this committee appears to have been selected from the known antiAlormou proclivi ties of the majority of its members. These gentlemen labored assidu ously for four week examining the accounts of the city with much min uteness. The report is a very volu minous document , and though the direct charges made tUerelu are few , a number of very terlous of- feuces by former officials are more than hinted at. It in , however , charged that the cily , which for several years controlled the entire liquor trade here , and did au exten sive business in its manufacture , de frauded the government to the amount of about f 00,000 by the non payment of internal revenue tax. At tne time that these frauds were perpetrated , the population of this city was almost entirely Mor mon , and the leaders of that church endeavored to com bat intemperance by persuading the city authorities to take entire charge of the trade in intoxicating liquors , and for sev eral years the only place where liquor could be obtained was at the City Liquor Store. Outside pres sure , however , compelled a change of policy , and saloons are now far too abundant for the welfare of the community. Unfortunately Ihe gentlemen of the committee have not confined their report to what they found on the city books , which they acknowledge are carefully and in telligently kept by experienced ac- countaiits , but they have inter woven therein common street rumor , and by putting "this and that together" after a manner most agreeable to themselves , have come to some rather startlingconclusions. But the mischief is that these ru mors prove to be untrue , and doubt is thus thrown on all the state ments made by the committee. No sooner was the report pub lished than denial after denial ap peared m the newspapers , from geul'amau whose names had been mentioned in Connection with va rious items of busine" ! referred to therein. The writers claimeuthnt the report so far as it related to them , Mus conspicuously inexact , and proof was brought forward to substantiate their statements. Amongst those who publicly deny the veracity of the report ore Col. Ellerbeck , Superintendent of the City Gas Company ; Messrs. Claw- son and Carne , whilom lessees of the Salt Lake Theatre , and Hon. Geo. C. Bates , ex-U. 8. Prosecuting Attorney. Ever since the publica tion of the report party feeling has run high on the subject , and it can not be denied that the unqualified contradiction of so many state ments therein by well-knewn citi zens has had the effect of causing the whole to bo regarded as a very questionable document. Some of the parties whose names have been as they claim , unwarrantably drag ged into notice to their Injury are already talking of instituting libel suits , on the ground that the report is malicious and intentionally un truthful. 1 find , however , that the document has had one most unex pected effect. It has increased confi dence in the present city govern ment , for many argue that admit ting everything contained therein , that has , uot yet been disapproved Is true , then the facts are so much better than It had been previously rumored , that they believe a change of administration would be an evil rather than a blessing. Leaving outside the charge of crooked whisky transactions , It is generally admitted that the funds of the city have been economically disbursed and strictly accounted for , and the members of the city council receive no pay for their services. Of the five daily papers published in this city , three take thid view of the matter. It is generally anticipated that the grand jury will indict ex-Mayor Wells. He is now in Arizona , but may be expected back in a fortnight or three weeks. I do not think , however , that he will make any public statement with regard to the malfeasance with which ho is charged until the matter is brought into court , should an indictment be found ; but I am told that he holds strenuously that the proceedings of the committee are m entire viola tion of law , in which opinion T dis cover he is in accord with many of our best-read lawyers. The sentiments of those who are not entirely carried away by reli gious partizauship are , "Let no guilty man escape , " be he Mormon or gentile , but give General Wells and others Implicated an impartial rial i , and if they are innocent , let it 39 known. I fear , however , that he whole business will be so over shadowed and complicated with echnicullties , as is almost always he case with legal matters In Utah , hat Ic will be difficult to arrive at he bottom facts. In the mean time the matter will be made a : jause for religious wrangling ; the tlormon papers will claim it is au- ther phase nf persecution and blg- try , while the ? r/4we ? will accept fa jvery statement as proven facts , ind jubiliae ! over the discovery of o many Mormon offences , Time 111 uo doilUt eyoIVP ( hp truth or tfn * " * notorious report aisuyoi tne .

' Its Steady and Prosperous Progress. * * * ' * { CorresDontlonce of the 15KK7) ) NORTJLBEND , Neb. , June 9. Aorth Bend , with an energy that characterizes a live western town , Is steadily looming into importance. Her markets are bel er aud her grain receipts are heavier than any other Nebraska town west of Oma ha. Her business men are straight forward , energetic and capable , aud they seem willing to allow llie.fami- er for his grain every cent there is in it. The future of our town is certainly ominous of success aud importance. There is country enough contiguous to her to push her forward to tLe front rank and sustain her in that position. Seven carloads of grain were billed from this place yesterday , and still it is corning. Give us a bridge across the Plutte river , and we will nearly doubln our present receipts. We need more capitalists ; we re quire another elevator ; we invite men ot business ; and to men de siring to till the earth for a liveli hood , here is where they may find land that is cheap , soil that is em inently productive , climate that in 'healthy , water that is pure , and so. ciety that is ever ready to welcome a worthy accession to their num bers. bers.Firstclass First-class business lots may be procured for from $50 to SI 00 , and residence lota from $10 to $75. We need another physician , and auother of almost any profession or avocation .might find here the flood of the tide which Shakspeare saya "leads on to fortune. " Well , as to our crop prospects. The ground was becoming very diy , the wheat was looking yellow and the farmer blue , when we were moistened by a nwguiticent shower , and the face of creation and the visage of her lord are mate rially changed. With the proper amount of moisture we must have a bountiful harvest , as we never have bad a better stand of grain than at present. Financially times are dull , and a very healthy sign is that the farmers are determined to assume no more responsibilities until the past is re deemed Give us a good crop and adequate prices and we will suap our fiuger at the sheriff aud the usurper. The 4th of July is comiug on apace , and if you do not hear from North Bend after that occasion , then 1 am mistaken. When I jteli you that such men as Hon. j-.lv and p. C. Kendall are on committee on programme ? , you will agree with me that something must be done.

Oakdale Triumphant Orer Kcligli by Six Majority , ( Correspondence of the BEE. ) OAKDAX.E , Neb. , May 30. The INeligh Journal of this date Is chuck full of county seat matters , some of which Is partly true aud a great deal which is not true. Oak- dale yet feels confident of retaining the county seat. HUH we may be beaten In the contest ; but if so , it will not be by honest votes. _ Every vote cast for Oakdale will be a bona fide one , and if the people , or voters , who have pledged themselves stand by and vote for this place , the edi tor of the Hitchcock organ at Ne- ligh will be one of the worst sold men iu the couuty. 1 * like to see men stick to the truth when writing about this county seat question. In his issue of this date he says : "Two years ago Twin Grove precinct contained more votea than the balance of the coun ty , and to-day Center precinct ( Ne- ligh ) has more population than any other precinct. That is not so , and then he fails to tell the people that since that time Twin Grove H. precinct has been divided , aud Kim Groye precinct formed out of it , which takes some forty or fifty from Twin Grove precinct , aud to-day to Pwin Grove precinct has more hou- est and actual voters thau Neligh. tie lays great stress on the tact that Neligh has a bridge over the Elk- tb : horn.

JUSTICE , xa MERRICK COUNTY. I xcollcnt Crop Prospects. The Universal Anti-Hitchcock Urjr Still Keeps on Reverberating' . S ZlCorrespondenco of the BIK. ] CENTRAL CITY , Juue 9. Crops in this vicinity are looking well. We have had several show ers of rain in the past few days. Farmers are feeling good and mer chants are anticipating a good trade this fall. At no time in the history of this county has the gen eral outlook beea so favorable. Al though we do not get as many Im migrants as some of the newer counties , yet those we do got come well prepared to make their stay permanent. The grangers of this county are erecting a warehouse in this place , and expect to do a heavy business in shipping produce and grain this full , and under the able manage- meut of EL. Bruno and Alex Patter- bon , they will certainly make it a bucceas. F. George , Sr. , proprlelor of the Platte .River Mills , , is east purchas ing machinery for his new mill and expects to be running in a short time. The great Indian relic owned by Win. McEudsee of this place , and framed by A. Hospe , Jr. , of your city , created quite an excitement while here. We understand that Mr. JHoEudree has forwarded it to Philadelphia , where no doubt it will attract universal attention. Political news is very scarce just now , as we are nearly all anti-Hitchcock , necessity having driven us to it. Our experience here In the last few years has taught us to guard against putting men in oUlce who will help the TJ. P. to fasten the rope more tightly around the people's necks. We Know something of the wire-pulling this corporation engages in , and we also know that one of the delegates from this place to the Fremont con vention placed himself squarely on | the Hitchcock side ; but this is not to be wondered at when we take into consideration the free nde over the U. P. last fall , and certain prom ises given him by ti. H. ii. Clark just before the convention. An arliolo in the BEE of June 6th , beaded ' ForeignEIement , " attract ed my attention. The writer seems to tbiuk the German element should be more fully recognized in our political meetings. Let us remem ber , brother Banckes , that we are in America now , ana are American citizens. Our nationality does not warrant us any more privileges than if we were born in America , and it is hardly probable that you or I would get into office were we any thing else but Germans.
