AMERICAN GOODS ABROAD.
One result of the depression in
"business which followed the panic of
1873 was to fores our manufacturers
lo attempt to extend their trade intc
oroign markets , from which , in times
of prosperity , they were largely ex-
c'uded by reason of the hi , > h prices !
obtainable for their products at home.
A-uericin goods wore then introduced
into the English colonies and on the
continent at prices which enablcdthem
puccossfully compete with the products
-ducts of Great Britain'a looms , forget
and factories' , and soon demonstrated
their iuGniie superiority. This Intro
duction has been followed by a stcadj
and growing demand for Amerl
cm products , which increase ir

ias assisted in furthering this end by
Xiquiriug our consuls to transmit from
time to time commercial reports of
the state of trade in the different loc -
c ililies and the growth and proepecls
of Amsrican competition ia the various
irade centres of the world. The latest

JUDGE BKIGGS ON PBIMAEV RE
FORM.
Uoi FAX , Iowa , August 9th.
J. S. HoCormisk , Chairmia DoujUs-.CvUatJ
Ctntril Coicmittce :
DEAR Sis Mineral water and shade
are pleasures , and quite as profitable
as Douglas county politics. But
while I am indulging in mineral wa
ter , it seems that you are suffering
from an inundation of "Roaewater ; "
that E. Roeewater has concocted a
a registration , scheme which is going
to make him a political dictator , and
split our party from stem to Etern.
I have seen the registration plan
adopted by your committee and
heartily approve it. For years the
republican primaries of Omaha have
been , to say the least , disgraceful.
The methods used by fighting factions
have been such as thieves and robbers
would bo ashamed of. The faction
that cr > uld afford to be the most cor
rupt was assured of victory. Demo
crats , Council Bluffeitcs , and gravel
trains were anxiously sought after ,
and the most worthy man was he who
voted oftenest. Now some propose
to stop this busincs. That ia right.
But It is said that Rcsewater is the
author of this plan , and that your
committee is eimply his mouthpieca ,
Well , if he is the author of it ho ie
entitled to the thanks of every hon
est republican in Nebraska. Be this
as it may , the plan has the sanction of
the cflicial management cf our party ,
the central committee , as its work ,
Having confidence in the intelligence
and discretion of the committee ,
for ono propose to stand by its work ,
even at the risk of being called a Rosewater -
water follower. This meddlesome ,
restless , irrepressible individual , who
hates noirly everybody and likes no
body ; who is often on his back but
ofteiier on his toet ; who possesses
courage , industry and energy intensi
fied ; who has no political conscience
who founded and sustains by his un
aided efforts , in the face of
the bitterest opposition , a newa-
paper of wide circulation , and
uronounced opinior s ; who defiantly
attacksquackeryrascality and abuses
who strikes at corruption in whatever
form it appears , though not able to
convince everybody that the nnti
corruptionist is himself incor-
ruptable ; who iaby far the most no
torious man in the state will not be
very ca ily snuffed out. If he hap
pens to favor a good thing let us not
for this single reason oppose it , but
decide the question upon its merite ,
It is quits likely thst some of the
details of your plan may in practice
pro.-o defective ; if so , the correction
canba made. Knowing , as you do
that the ttrength of any plan consist
chiefly in the fairness and good faith
with wl.ich it is carried out , you will
of course , tea to it that the opponent
to registration are given ample officia
opportunity to work together with its
friends. It is to bo regretted that
factional differences cannot be a thing
of the past.
Believing that your committee will
stand firmly by its work , I remain
truly youts , Cuxrox BKIGOS.
NO REFORM FliOM JEWS.
THE brass collared Pharisees who
edit the Omaha Be nibliean want to
know how it is pos Bible for any reform
to come from a Jew. Had they lived
in Palestine 1850 years ago , they
would hive doubtless exclaimed ,
"Can any good thing come out of
Xazireth ? " According to these good
Christians no reform could have come
from Christ because he was born a
Jew , and they would have joined
PonthuPilato in the crucifixion. Com
ing down to our own time , the
Spaniards ought to reject the raforms
of Emdio Castcllar , the foremost
orator of our times and one of the most
patriotic statesmen of his country ,
because of his Jewish descent , and
the French should scout and scorn the
reforms of Ljon Gambetta because ,
like Bjnjamin Disraeli , he is the de
scendant of Italian Jews. For the
same reason , no doubt , the imperialists
of 1 ranee imprisoned Adolph Crem-
icux , who shared his prison
- with Thiers , aud , upon the down
S fall of ths empira at Sedan
. was caUed for the second time tc
the post of ministers of justice. Iti
Germany the foremost parliament ary
speakers and tacticians , Edward Las-
< kcr and Ludwig Barabcrger , whose
services on behalf of free institutions
as leaders of the German liberal partj
have rendered them immortal , could
originate no reform because they were
Jews. If , as the Pharisees of the Je-
publican assert , no eocial or political
- reform could come from Jews , what
service worthy of commendation
coald Jews render to the world oi
science , literature or arl ? To what
credit is Baruch Spinoza entitled for
his daring speculations , whoso in-
finenco to-day mould's German
thought snd philosophy ? What right
lias Qeinrich Heine , as one of the
most exquisite poets of the sge , and
why should Auerbach , the most accomplished -
complished of German novelists , be
crowned with laurels ? Were not
Heine and Auerb ch Jews ? Whj
should students of mental science pay
any attention to the works ol
Adolph Frank , who is now so promi-
inent amonj : the leaders in French
philosophy when ho if known to be
long to that accursed tribe. Rachel ,
the greatest of tragediennes of modern
times , and Sara Bernhardt would have
baen indignantly hisiedoffthe stsge
because they were Jews. Mendels-
sohnwho furnished most of the church
musio for these extra aalect Christians
and Meyerbaer , Halevy and Jacque
Offenbach , who composed the heavj
as well as the light operas
that are classic in all the
temples of the drama ought
to have been ostracised because
they wert3 Jews. Among those whe
have elicited the admiration cf the
musical world lately , Joser-h Joachim ,
the present director of the Berlin
Academy of Music , and Rubenstein ,
Joseffy , and scores of others , would
suffsr condemnation if their merits
and talents had to pass under the
. judgment of the Christian spirited
gentlemen who edit the Ecpublican.
1 We will.cct take.up time byreferrine
to Jewish editors of eminence who oc
cupy journalistic chairs at home and
abroad. They all will have to retire
from their fields of usefulness , be
cause none of them can originate a
scheme of reform.
Judge Briggs speaks with no uncer
tain sound in favor of honesty in our
party primaries. His declaration for
the registration reform of the county
central committee Is hearty and out
spoken. Not oven the brass-
oollared organ-grinder of the
U. P. monopoly dare impugn
the motives of Clinton L. Briggs
when he announces himself in favor
of the primary reform in all the de
tails in which it is now being carried
out by the central committee.
POLITICAL NOTES.
_
The Hon. John R. Thomas has been
nominated for re-election to congress
by the republicans of the Eghteenth :
district ot Illinois.
Prof. John C. Ridpath , of Ashbury
university , has declined the greenback
nomination for congre s in the fifth
district of Indiana. He is a republi
can.

The Portland Oregonian says that
the local democratic papers in Oregon
have given up all hopes of carrying
tha etate for Hancock , and are devot
ing their entire energies to the can
vass in distant states.
Seth Shepherd , democratic candi
date for congress in the Fifth Texas
district , is n native Texan , ar-d , if
elected , will be the first full fledged
Texan ever in the housa of represen
tatives. - . _
Mr. Quay , n leading Pennsylvania
republican , when called upon to make
a speech at a G.ufield meeting the
other day , replied : "Gentlemen ,
this campaign requires work and not
talk ; here is my chtck for § 500. "
The greenbackera of the Sixth dis
trict ot Iowa have nominated Judge
John C. Cook fur congress. This is
the district now represented by Gen.
Weaver. The republicans ; ntend to
say who shall represent it at the next
session.
In a call for a convention in a Mis
sissippi district by a democratic com
mittee , such an attendance is request
ed a will "let the enemy know in
the beginning that in Una campaign
the democracy \ \ ill win at all hazards. "
An effort will be made to induce
ex-Senator Doolittle , who practices
Uw in Chicpgn , but resides in Racine ,
to accept the notcinition for congress
in the fiwt district of Wisconsin ,
against the Hon. Charles G. William ? .
The district is composed of the coun
ties of Rock , Walworth , W.iukesha ,
Racine and Kcnoeha , and is cipablo
of giving 6000 republican majority.
Fifty-six delegates to tha greenback
convention in tne First congressional
district of Maine , bolted the nomina
tion of the Conperhead , "Gen. " S. J.
Anderson. They organized a new
convention , and one of them said they
would not have Anderson crammed
down their throats , nnd another that
Andereon could iKt carry one sixth of
the greenback strength in the city of
Saco , claiming some 700 or 800 votes
there.
The democrats of the Tenth dis
trict of Illinois have nominated Robert
flolloway for congress. The Burling
ton ( Iowa ) Hawk-Eye publishes docu
ments to show that he was connected
with the Knights of the Golden Circle ,
was active in aiding to promote their
tre3sonable purposes during the war ,
and was dcpu'v Buurcmo commander ,
and during Vallandigham'a banish
ment was in command of the order
and ono of its military chiefs. But
perhaps all this will not tike any
democratic support away from him.
Solon Chase will not accept a placs
on the fusion electoral ticket in Maine ,
because , he says , thcro c n bo no
union between democrats and green-
backers if the former are sincere in
their hard money platform adopted at
CiccinnetL _ The democrats , it is
worth noticing , whether they are sin
cere or not , are always hot for a fusion
with the fiatists ; the latter do all the
pulling back.
The Boston Post ( dem. ) has a letter
from its correspondent in Maine
which concedes a democratic defeat in
Sept. Itsiys : "From present appear
ances , I should hardly say lint the
election of Piaisted could bo reckoned
as a probability. I peraonally know
of a number of straight democrats in
this place , and one prominent one , at
least , outside of it , who intena eichoi
to vote the republican ticket or not
vote at ali , or mike up a ticket of
their own. "
The great progres of the democracj
- in Alabama ia a source of amuemenl
to frienda and foes. Fals9 counting
breeds rapidly. When it is so easy tc
roll up majontioj they are rolled up
, rapidly. Tilden's majority in 187 (
was 34,000 ; but the state ticket this
year Is said to have 60,000 majority.
Clultnn county's entire vote i' 187 (
was 11-11 ; it now reports a democratic
- majority of 1800. St. Clair has 1GOC
democratic raajoity now , but it had
, only 1G29 rll told in 1870 , and 400 ol
those were republican. Etoxvah ha
2000 democratic majority ; total vet (
in 187C , 1(540 ( , of which GOO were re
publicans. Lowndos showed a repub
licsii majority or 2400 in 1870 ; il
- claims now n democra'ic ' majority o
1200 , being just 110 more than its en
tire democractic vote of four yean

SaepjciousrCensus Returns.
Chicago Trioun ? .
The Louiavillo Courier Journn
boasts that the southern states , ac
cording to the now census , show near
ly double the rate of increase of the
northwestern states. It says :
"Tho fourteennorthernand wester :
states including Minnesota , Nebras
ka , Kansas , Illinois and Michigan
from which census returns have beer
received show an aggregate increase o
D0
4,510,925 , or an average gain of 23.91
per cent. It will surprise many t ' <
learn that this increase of percentagi
is nnarly doubled in that portion of thi
south from which we have returns ,
Sevea southern states Arkansas
Kentucky , Louisiana , Missouri , Texas /
as , Virginia and Delaware have a to
tal porulaticn oi 9,1GD,331 , an aggre
gate aain of 2,750,882 , showinc an av
eraga ineresae of nearly 43 per cent.
cr , to be more exact , 42.99. "
It will "surprise "
many" to learr
this. Tha sou hem states ( excepting
Texas and Arkansa * ) mentioned bj
the C.-J. have been stagnant for i
quirter of a century. They have of'
fered no new inducements to settlers ,
Their lands are to a great extent bar
ren cr worn out. Their ataples an
cotton and tobacco , which can cnlj
be raised profitably in large planta
tions , and require considerable invest
mcnti of capital. Their cities hav <
not grown. Their commerce has nol
expanded. Their mileage of rail
roads has increased very litth. Th <
statistics of the government show n <
unusual contributions of interna
revenue from -any of them , nor anj
great demand for public lands ,
There has betn little foreign immijira
tioa into anycf them , but a coasid 1-
erabla native esodas of Borne.
In tbe face of these facts , which In
dscate no special growth of popula
tion , the census returns show an
amazing increase in the population of
the south an increase unparalleled in
its history. The seven states referred
to have made the following absolute
giins in each period of ten years since
1840 :
18(0 to 1850 to ISSOto 1S70 to
1850. 1EGO. 1870. 1830.

The returns from Missouri in the
period between 18CO and 1870 were
swollen by tbe fraudulent addition of
60,000 to 80,000 names to the popula
tion of St Louts. The growth of
Texas and Delaware ia probably legi
timato.
The gains in North Carolina , which
are more remarkable than those in
several states referred to by the C.-J. ,
have been as follows :
From 1840 to 1850 , 115,620 ; 1850
to 1800,123,583 ; 1800 to 1870 , 78,739 ;
1870 to 1880 , 318,152.
According to the reports , North
Carolina has gained nearly as much in
the last ten years as in the previous
thirty years Yet it is one of the
poorest states in the Union. Its soil
is sandy , and turpentine-growing ia its
principal Industry.
We direct special attention to the
returns from Kentucky and Virginia.
Kentucky is reported us caining more
in the l t ten yeara than in the
previous twenty-five years , and Y'r '
nia more in the last ten years ( spite of
the lots of West Virginia ) than in the
previous fifty years. The population
of Virginia at the beginning of this
cenlury was 801,008. It was 1,225 ,
1G3 in 1870. The gain in seventy
years was only 423,555. It lost popu
lation between 1830 and 1840. It had
a state s'ate carved out of it in 18G3.
he new census reports pretend to
show that it has lacked but 50,000 of
gaining as much in the ton years be
twcen 1870 and 1870 as in the seventy
years between 1800 and 1870. The
gains of Virginia in each period of ten
yean may be tabulated separately
thus :

Net gain in 10 ycaret870-SO ( 374,837
Virginia was a worn out slate fifty
years ago. Its soil has been exhasted
by the reckless cultivation of tobacco.
Yet it is represented as gaining in the
last ten years more thah JTebraska or
Minnesota both of them new states
supporting agricultural communities
and having quantities of unoccupied
and very fertile farming lands.
The Courier-Journal lets out part o
the secret of the alleged marvolou
growth when it ssys :
"There were probably many mis
takes committed in the enumeration of
1870 in the south , as the enumerators
there then were generally of a lower
order of intelligence than those now
employed , and they were susceptible
to the political influence which de-
fired the congressional representation
from that section to be kept at its low
est figure. "
That is to say , the enumerators'
views are of a higher order of intelli-
gance , and "susceptible to the politi
cal influence which desires thu con
gressional representation from the
south to bo kept at its highest figure. "
They are , in fact , unscrupulous demo
cratic politicians forced upon Presi
dent H ycs by the democratic senate
the men who have defrauded the
south of its true representation in the
past by stuffing the ballot-boxes or
surrounding the polls with shot-guns.
These southern returns , especially
those from Northfl Carolina , Kentucky
and Virginia , nro auspicious. They
should bo examined. The aim of the
ballot-bnx thieves and slucgera ia now
at the rights of the north. Having
subdued the simple negroes at home ,
they think they can cheat the wh.te
mon of the North. They will find
that this is not EO simple a thing to
do. If there his been any cheating
it must be exposed and the returns
corrected. The northern people will
not submit to the loss of their rights.
For Congress.

The line above is as blank in the
minds of a great many Nebraska
electors as it is at the head of this ar
ticle. That Judge _ Valleutiue does )
not fill the bil' ' , or in other words )33j
meet the popular Idea of what a ccn-
grcEsman should be , is too plainli
evident to make an issue of. One oi
the best reasons advanced , aside froir
the fact that West Point has been fa
vored with the cfflco two terms al i1 1
ready , is the fact that the senator
and Vallontine are so broken into dis
cord that their influence is 6im
ply negUive and the tha state suffers
frcm the stubbornness of some one oi
the delegation , and the proper thinj
f IT the people to do , is to retire ono o
them to private life , and teach oui
congressman then he is the ssrvan
. of the people , and not the ruler , anc
to say to him in letters a mile long
that ptty quarrels between senate ri
and members of congress , are not ap
predated by Nebraskians. The Globi
is not alone in this matter , and thi

The Poncas.

The Ponca Indians have alway
been a much abused tribe , A new ex

has been thi
means of considerable dissatisfactioi
to the but it

is buying up the Poncas that ara nov
in the Indian Territory so that the'
will remain there , aa a letter just re"
ceived here under date of July 22u 0id <
from one of the Ponca leaders infers
follows : "I have
just had six cow
given me to-day by the government. rsI
have ten acres of beautiful corn.1
There is perhaps more senti

j necessary , but that the land is their'/ /
. i we have no reason to doubt ; and Thi
iPioneer [ -was the first to advance ieis
1claitn . long before Tibbies or any of
' the rest of the present sympathizer ofH
- J would recognize the fact. In theeami
letter the writer says , "We are ill
well down here no sickness. " Bishop
Olarkson , however , claims that
"nearly 400 of them are still impris
oned in the Indian territory , sup
ported at government expense , sick ,
weak and broken-spirited , unwilling to
work since they have been driven
from their homes which they rescued
from the wilderness. " Thia is indeed
pa'hatlc. But Bishop Blarkaon and
his own church people , who were at
that time the religious administrators
to the Poncas , could have done all to
relieve them of their distress then.
Now that they ara there , we believe
they ought to remain. Wo are in
clined to the opinion that their re
moval to Dakota again means a job
for same contractor. It smells rather
strong that way.
AN USDIOXIFIED WAIL.
Hastings Xebraakan.
The wail of The Omaha Republican
against the rules adopted by the cen
tral committee for the conduct of the
primaries seems very undignified and
very unwise. If carried out fairly
and in good faith a most desir.iblu re
form will have been accomplished in
the politics of Douglas county , and
especially of the city of Omaha.
I'UROE T1IE riUMAUIE.S.
Grind Island Independent.
It is quite evident that there will
be n bolt from the republican ranks
ng. in in Doughs county this fall. The
faction opposed to vcttng democrats
and U. P. gravel trains having a ma
jority of the central committee , have
taken step } to secure registration and
prevent repeating , precludes , dem
ocratic and other jlhgal votes
at the republican primaries
and this i fghy the faction in favor of
such "in ' until EvlV6JT carrv'
ins ; fjfirxs o t Vrrr bolt and form n
"U. P. l > arty , " "irrespactive of par
ty'1 so far as primaries ara concerned.
Nona but republicans have a right to
vote at republican primaries , and the
steps taken to prevent the fraud which
is becoming so fraquent at all pri
maries , especially in the large
towns , appear to us to be steps in
the right direction , and deserving the
sanction and eupnort of ail honest re
publicans. Primaries should b'e as
honestly and carefully conducted as
the elections themselves , nnd too
many restrictions cannot be placed
around them. The occupation of the
primary repeater ought to bo taken
from him-and democrats who ore
willing to vota at republican primaries
for whisky or money ought to be pre
cluded.
