THE figures in the Herald showing
a large margin in favt r of Holly's bid
are ingenious but they can't deceive
intelligent people. Holly's bid is
vary low on intermedhte hydrants ,
but this is a transparent trick. M .
Cook's design is very liberal and com
plete. Theri will bo no call for inter
mediate hydnuiU for the next ten
years , and possibly not f T twenty five
years , hence Holly runs no risk in
agreeing to furni h them for a mere
bagatelle.
THE split in Virginia between the
two factions of the democracy , is
widening daily and two electoral
tickets are in the field , one pUced in
nomination by the readjustee , the
j
champions of state dishonesty , the
other by the funders , who propose to
sustain the state's financial honor , by '
paying the state debt in full. The
readjustee , it i unnecessary to say ,
are largely in the majority and decline
that theyVill not haul down thpir flag
until November. As affnra nowitmd ,
the republicans are likely to walk in
through the eplit and elect their own
electoral ticket.

enunciation of political faith" , thatcov-
era every vitil point in the" great ia
sues upon which- . . the present csm-

General Garfield firet gives cordial
endorsement to the cardinal princi
pies of republicanism as defined in the
natienal platform. He supplements
that declaration ly expressing his
couvictii n that fraternal unity cannot
bo restored in this country until
every citizen , rich or poor , white or
black is secure in the enjoyment of
every civil and political right guaran
teed by the constitution. Prosperiiy
and concrrd in the south can never
be realized utitill every voter can free

ises. Next in importance to uni-1
verbal freedom and justice is , in Gen
eral Gaified'n ! opinion , popular edu

dom nor justice can never be main
tained. F.ve schools , accessible to sll ,

General Garfield points to his record
in congress , and reiterates what ho
has often ass-rted there that wn
need only fo maintain the equality of
all our dollars , pap r , silver and gold ,
to irsure to labor and capital uniform
prosperity.
Oa the subject of revenue and tariff
General Garfield favor * a policy which
will bring revenue to the treasury
and will enable the laborer and the cap
ital employed in our great industries
to compete fairly with the labor and
capital of foreign product. We legislate -
late for the paoplo of the United

it is our clory that the American

FAIK PLAY.
The republican p rty in the comfng
contest only asks for fair pHy. They
demand the right guaranteed them by
the national constitution to cast their
billets for whomsoever they see 3t ,
with a reasonable chance of having
them counted. They pntest
the politicil diffranohisTnent of two
million party voters , and insist that
in 'he northern state * the democratic
in > chino shall be prolubted ; from
manufacturing enou.-h votars to neu-
* r liz < < the hon ° st ba'lots ' cast by mem
bers of thr republican party. There
are at the present time enough voter *
north to elect the republican
ticket , and elect it by a good
mnjority. It was the fear of this
majority which has haunted the dem
ocracy in ojngress. It was to break
down this rmjririty that the democra
cy endeavored to repeal the national
election law providing for supervisori
and deputy marshals to guard th *
polls and protect the ballot box , and
by iti dastruction to ride into still
greater power on a a tidtl wave cf
fraudulent votes and bogus naturaliza
tion A rcC'-nt fipsech of Senator Hoar J
states that last year sixty thousand
bo us naturalization pipers were made
out by democrats in New York stale
alone , and that every etfort
will be made in the coming election to
H od the ballot b > xea of Now York
city with manufactured votera. The
votics of Pnuidoiit Hayes partially
defeated the democratic cjnspiracy
aud have thoroughly opennd the eyes
of the people to the ulterior object of
their opposition to th safeguards of
the ballot , and b-fore the campaign is
over , the facts will be made so plain
that he who runs may read.
Failing in their wholesale attempt
to overthrow tree elections throughout
the country , the latest move of the |
democracy through their paitip.an
supreme court in Indiana , has
been to nulliy the constitution.il
amendment * passed by the republi
of that state , making a residence
thirty days in tha precinct whrro
the vote was oif t an essential qualifi
cation for legal voting. This amend
ment was abrogated for purely politi
rMs-Mis in crder to permit the
democracy their former privilege of
importing blno "raas voters from Ken
tucky. Ita obj. > cc is eo pslpab'o ' that
the majority which ratified the con -
stitutional amendments ro certain to
cast their votei la the coming campaign
as
paign against the party which has
nullified the will of the people.
In these two etre' , so important to
democratic success in thofall election ,
the Retitib'ican pr'y pr-'poses to use
every effort to soc fair play. Before two
years are over both branches of Con
gress will bo strongly R publican dis- a
pite the shauiefullv dishunest devices ,
the democracy , uhen an election law
will bo passed , which will cimpel re
spect from the bruisers of New York i is ,
city , the tepeatera of Indiana , and the [
bulldozers of the south. In the mean for
time tha greatest vigdsmoe will be
necessary to prevent ihe most , vvbole- '
political corruption during the It-
coming campaign and the republican teA Itto
party will be unfaithful to its history A
traditions if it fails one jot or - *
in demanding that fair play which ca
have a right to expect. " fare

A serious accident happened to
Mri. Geo. Hanson , six miles south of

milking a cow , the vicious unini'-l
turned upon and horned her till cho
birely escaped with her life by iieing
her apron over the enraged brute's
eyes , creeping away , unable to walk.
So severe were her injuries that a
wh > le sheet was required to dress her
wounds. The cow had only once pro-
vioii'ly showed any indication of such
a disposition , on which occasion she
turned upon a boy of ten years , who
ina-ifiilly knocked tha "critter" down
with a mallet in hand.
Quite a sensation was caused last

ROVER.
The Representative of Disloyaltv. I
New Vork Tribune. I
The revolutionists of the extra aea-
oion have nominated General H mcock.
Wast is the point of accord that ex-
, ihms this facr ? These are the men
who have not drawn one loyal breath
since nmny of them were fighting in j
unif'-rms against loyal armies
They tried to destroy the government
by force , then to capture it by pledges
or good behavior , then to cripple it by
iefii alof supplies , and now they set
up General Hancock as their repre
sentative. Have they changed , ort
" '
as he ?
Only two things are known that can
explain this. Indeed , nothing else ,
g > "d or bad , is known of the po'iticat ' ,
; < cts or opinions of General Hancock
It is known that , he helpsd as far as
hi could to thwart and dnfeat laws of
the United States in 1867It is sa'd
t at he
seriously cjiitemplated a r v
) n ionary movement to eeat by force
a pediduntial candidate who was def -
f * t.d in 187C. It is boast ingly
st > ed by his frionda , und as yet not
dfc lied by any one , that General Han-
c iik did declare that he would not
ot or oby decision of the pres
identi.il question advoree to Mr. Til-
den , but was ready to support Mr.
lil it'll in an attempted revolntion ,
and to obey hia orJers as president ,
if he would take the oath of office ,
ruid thus take the first step in the
revolution.
At that time , General Hancock was
a soldier of the United States Army , (
bound by its rules and by the laws of
tha United States to render obedience
to the General in command of the
army , audbound to submit , in respect
to any dispute : is to the result of elec
tions , to the decisions of the civil
auihontiea. It would have been
naked , undisguised and treasonable
insubordination , had any officer of
the army , in defiance his command
ing General , ai tempted to recognize
as President , the person not so recog
nized in the orders of the head of the
army. Cut this act of icvolution '
General Hancock declared himself | I
re.a-ly to commit
, according to theas-
so-tinns of his friends , if Mr. Tilden
uld provide him a pretext.
If tins is true , it was not the first t
time General Hancock ha'l showed a
spirit of insubordination. In 1867 ,
Andrew Johnson was engaged in an
effjrt to defeat the laws enacted by
congress. He sought for military
officers nho , if placed in command of
department * , would help him to de
feat the laws. General Sheridan had
faithfully and intelligently enforced
fie lans in the Fifth district , com
prising Louisiana and Texas , and is
Johnson therefore wished to get rid of
him Gen. Thonirs wa ? approached ,
but he "repeatedly entered his
'test ' , " as General Grant officially
stated , "especially to being assigned
relieve General Sheridan. " The
-rand old hero was not willing to be
used for any disloyal purpose Fi
nally. General Hancock was found
iiid he consented. He became tjje
instrument aud mouthpiece of the on-
reionstructed rebels -who wi-re resist-
ng ihe laws. As far as he had power
did defeat the laws within the de
partment which he commanded , and
r so doing was honored beyond
measure by the rebels and banded as
sassins of that day , as he is trusted by |
revolutionists of to-day. I
That the import of his acts may be '
well understood , it is needful to
quote briefly from the letter of Gen. and
G-ant , dateg August 7 , 1867. That If
morning , Mr. Jobnion had proposed
removal of Goo. Sheridan , and
Gen. Grant , in a private letter to the aujl
president , said :
Let ma ask you to consider the effect
would have upon the public. He is
universally and deservedly beloved by
pvople who sustained this gorern-
mont through its trials , and

A few . .days later , beitttf ayke'3 to
givS his opinion upon an order of rS-
moval theiwprepared , General Grant
wrote officially , August 17 :
lam pl ased to avail myself of this
invitation to urge , earnestly urge in
the name of th patriotic people who
have sacrificed hundreds of thousands
of loyal lives and thousmds of mil
lions of treasure to.preserve the integ
rity and union of this country" , that
thisoider , bo nut issued. It is un-
mistakeably the expressed wish of
' the ' country that General Sheridan
shuuld < not be removed from his pre
sent command.
Thisis _ a republic , where the will of
the peo'plo is the law of the land. I
bee ; that their voice may be heard.
General Sheridan has performed his
civil duties faithfully and intelligent
ly. His removal will only be regarded
as an etfort to defeat the laws of con
gress. It will bo interpreted by the
unreconstructed eleirient-ln the south
those who did all- they could , to
break up this government by arms ,
and iiow wish to be the only elemant
consulted as to the method of restor
ing order as a triumph. It will
embolden them to renewed opposition
to the will of the loyal masses , believ
ing that they have the executive with
them.
It was under these circumstances
that General Hancock consented to
be the instrument of th administration -
tion to dislodge the loyal anil faithful
Sheridan , and to defeat the lawa of
congress. Thus early he proved that
his loyalty was not the sort which
Generals _ , , Grant , Sherman , Sheridan ,
Thomas and others possessed. He
was willing to thwart and defeat the
laws of his country ; they were not.
tit was willing to give "a triumph to
those ! vvho did all they could to break
UP this government by arms ; " they
wera not. He was ni'ling ' to em
bolden the unreconstructed rebels to
renewed opposition" to the laws ; they
were not. This is the reason General
Hancock has been the darling of the
disloyal.

SANTA GLAUSTOUND.
Greatest Discovery of the Age.
onuerful dlncoveries in the n nrld have been made
Among other things where Santa Claua stayed ,
Children oft ask if he makes goods or not ,
If really'he ' lives In a mountain of snow.
Last year an excursion sailed clear to the Pol
And suddenly dropped into what etemedlikei-hole
Where wonder of wonders they found a new land ,
rt'hile fairy-like beingt appeared on each hand.
There were mountains like ours , with more
beautiful green.
And far brighter skies tban ever were seen.
Birds with the hues of a rainbow were found ,
While flowers of exquisite fragrance were grow
ing aroncd.
Not long were they left to wonder In doubc ,
A being soon came they had heard much about ,
Twas Santa Glaus' self and tb If they all say ,
He looked like the picture 7 csee every day.
He drove up a team that looked very queer ,
Twas a team f grasshoppers instead of reindeer ,
He roric in A shell instead of a eleigh ,
But he took them en bctrd and drove them
away.
Ho showed them all over his wonderful realm ,
And factories making goods for wonieii and men.
Furriers were working on hats great and small ,
To Bnnce's they said they were sending them all.
Kri ) Kinglc , the Glove Maker , told them at once ,
AH Our Gloven we are sending to Bunce ,
Santa showed them r.txripnders and many things
more. j
Saying I alse took thece to fifcnd Eunce'a store.
Santa Claua then whispered a secret be'd tell ,
As in Ou aha every one knew Bunce well ,
He therefore should send his goods to hia care ,
Knowing his friend * will get their full share.
Ho v rsmember je dwellers in Omaha town ,
All who want presn's ta Punce's go round ,
For ehirts , collars , or gloves gtet. ! . nd small.
