ANOTHEU attempt at reconciliation
Is to ba made this week by the Tarn
mtny and snti-Tammawy democrats
in New York state. The republican
press in the Empire state draws brigh
predictions of victoiy from the
thorough organization' of the re
publicans and the fighting factions of
the democracy.
REJ.IFI * is rapidly hastening to the
imprisoned British garrison in Canda
" har. General Stewart is already
Gc'lalabsd , fifty miles from Cabul ,
while General Roberts is atGhunznee ,
150 miles distant f rom Candahar. The
relieving iorcea will reach the be-
Iea2ucrad garrison , unless delayed ,
ubout the 1st of September. In the
meantime Ayoob Khan is bombarding
the city. The greatest danger appre
hended is that the supply of water will
f ll short in which case surrender is
inevitable.
INDICATIONS continue that the south
has entered upon a well organized
conspiracy to falsify the census re
turns. In South Carolina the returns
arc absurdly large in some backwoods
tcctione , showing an increase of 74
par cent , during the last decade. Ala
bama , Mississippi and Louisiana , are
in no manner behind South Caralina.
Ballot box stuffing and bulldozing as
moans of increasing political power
arc bad enough , but census manipula
tion will do more to make a solid north
than anything else at the present time
and to convince all honest men that the
south is ready to make any sacrifics cf
principle to obtain the reins of gov-
"rnrneat.
I WE hear very little , now , of the dem
ocratic cries of "oconomyandrefcrm"
EO vigorously tooted during the last
campaign. "Reform" from democ
racy would eocm almost too much of
a earcasm after the exposure of the
frauds and ciphering of ' 70 , the bal
lot-box stuffing and bull-dozing cf
southern statesmen and the natural- !
siiiou swindles of New York politic
ians. So we are likely to hear
very little of this hypocritical acd
threadbare slogan. The economy war
cry is not being sounded as loudly as
it was four ago. The con
gressional record of the dem
ocracy is by no means a flattering
exhibit. The annual appropriations
made by the bourbon congress for the
present fiscal year and the two years
preceding aggregate $486,000,000 , an
average of 8102,000,000 a year. The
uirno appropriations made by repubtt-
c\n congresses for the fiscal years of
1873,1874 and 1875 aggregated § 424- ,
030,000 or an average of 8141,000,000
a year. Democratic
economy haa
bhown itself in creating a deficiency
ono year only to b& eupplied the next
by catting down appropriations for
njedcd objects , such as the coast ire
fence and the preservation of the har
bors , and throwing away twice the
amount thus saved leo
, by liberal appro
priation * for the benefit of conetiiu
cnts throughout the south in the im
provement of Salt creek and Mil
river. The river and harbor grab hai
averaged nine million dollars a yeai
under democratic legislation , and th <
very localities which needed help in
internal improvements hare beei
most slighted.
THE evidences of popular approva
throughout the state , of the course of \
the county central committee in theu
endeavors to purify the primaries of
Douglas county , is unmistakable.
e.re
Tha bast journals of the state are
ree
outspoken in favor of a thorough re1
form in ths primaries. Honest re1
publicans trho hare net the fear of
,1 ; \
the Union Pacific road in their heart ,
are equally interested in seeing the
project carried through , despite the
bull-dozing and threats of xhe mo
nopoly cappers. Men to whom the
success of the republican party is a
matter of the highest importance , see
in a fair and untrammelled election in
Doughs county the death-blow to. that
factionalism which has been such a
source of regret to republicans through
out the state. The people are not
blinded by the so-called protest
which the brasa-collared crew have in
dustriously circulated through the
county and half the signatures to
which Lave been obtained under false
pretenses. Those who have watched
the course of the central committee
have not failed to see that every con
cession possible to prevent honest dis-
Eatisfaction has been made and thai
the strongest efforts have been put
forward to prevent the disenfranchisement -
ment of any republican voter. The
only cause for complaint among the
monopoly organ grinders lies In the
fact that none but republicans can
vote under the rules of the committee.
A faction which depends for its
political power upon dishonesty in
thepartyprimariesisnaturally alarmed
when anhoncstelection isguarranteed.
THE Herald is greatly excited over
the prospect of the coming consolida
tion of tha Gould and Scott railroad
systems , and of courses sees in such a
junction of interests a vast amount o ;
good for Omaha. A short connecting
line is to be built from New Orleans to
the Texas Pacific , and as a consequence
quence , according to the Herald ,
there will be a new outlet for the pro
ducts of Iowa , Xobraska , Mlssour
and Kansas. . If the Herald woulc
devote its attention to the systematic
robbery of producers by the Goulc
lines in Nebraska , its readers woulc
have more confidence in its predic
tions of Omaha's interests elsewhere
The dilemma of the Rebulllcan is
ridiculous and it rides uneasily on
either horn. It first informed Us
readers that over a thousand well
known republicans were being dia
franchieed by a burdensome regulation
which compelled them to appear anc
register. The county central commit-
tea then instructed its registrars to
register republicans whoso party
loyalty was unquestioned , and those
who having signed the register of th
Garfield and Arthur clubs had
thus pledged themselves to vet
the republican ticket in th
fall. Over this obviously fair molhoc
the Republican Is amazed and sees it
it another Rosewater scheme to foste
disaffection in the pirty. The county
central committee are determined i
leave no shadow of a shade of excus
for any charge of parthauahip as thel
action from the beginning of the
registration have shown. The Jfcptio-
lican has ehown that TIO scheme for
purifying the primaries will meet with
its approbation .islong asauch a scheme
closes the doors to the fraud and cor-
Juptioa for which It i& the apologist
I and which baa beeu the shame and
disgrace of Douglas county.
MAJOR J. W. DAVIS , the eloquent
fact distorter of the democracy , said
on Saturday last that the democracy
Bjnt moro soldiers to the war than the
republicans. Major Davis is correct ,
but the difference between the great
majority of Union and democratic
soldiers was in the unfornw , the one
wearing blue and the other grey.
Just now when the democracy are try-
to hide all their war record , tliair op
position to the rebellion , their futile
endeavors to atop "useless effusion of
blood/ ' their declaration that the
war was a failuae , it may be
well to examine the returns of the
soldier vota of 18G4 , when the states
passed laws permitting their soldiers
to vote and their
, votes were eepa-
rataly returned and canvassed. The
figures were published a few weeks
ago by the Chicago Times in answer
to the declaration of Mayor Harrison ,
that there were more democrats than
republicans in the union army. The
returns from six states are as follows :
, . JIfP. Dem.
Ohio. . . . . . . 32,751 4,5'J )
Pennsylvania 2fi,712 12310
Iowa 17310 I'D * *

.Michigan 9.402 > 9.7. )
California 2,000 * 2s7
Totals 1C4.223 25,347
Of the eoldicrs sent by democratic
s'ates aud territories on the southern
border , nine-tentha were republicans ,
and the other tenth were following out
- the principles of the republican party.
Tbo figures showing the political
choice of the army indicate that for
every democrat in the army there wore
about four republicans. The devious
Davis should produce campaign lies
which-cannot ao easilybe nailed as his
last one. Let him claim political
purity for his party , sound ita clarion
for free and fair elections , proclaim
peace and good will to white and
black , but for his own good drop the
discussion of '
the democrary's war
record. It is a matter of historj' ,
and cannot be changed by brazen
faced misrepresentation.
A Well Kept Farm.
KcwYbrkTienes.
A well-ordered farm , well-chosen
stock , comfortable buildings , a neatly-
kept garden , roadway or entrance way ,
gates well hung , fences well kept ,
shade trees , ornamental shrubbery ,
- paint without and whitewash within-
all these are worth more to a farmer
in money value than a few hundred
dollars carefully scraped together and
- jealously hoarded and loaned to needy
* neighbors at interest. No investment
pays so wellss
- money judiciously tpent
in farm improvements. Draining wet
land will p y fifty to ono hundred per
cent , on its cost
every year ; good
stock will pay equally -well ; good
roads will turn their cost
every year ;
a gate will save its cost in a short time
a good fenc * will save us cost in ono
night ; a well kept garden , a neat
lawn , orchard and shade trees , which
need not cost $100 , have added ten
times that amount to the valoo of a
farm , and tbe comfort and self-respect
gained through the outlay for theie
and for their possession are worth
more than iho ccst.

WILDER , Saline Co. , Neb. , August
10. Six years ago your correspondent
stepped off the cars in deep grass and
svw a lively lame wan , with measur
ing tape in hand and ( peculation in
his eye. It was Prof. Wilber , and the
spot was Wilber in proapective. Since
then Wilber haa loomed up into the
second town in the county and has
become the county seat ; population
719. A fine court houee hasbesn erec

co t of 818,000. A large union school

are Tobias Castor.the Hermans Mann ,
Harvey , Clark , Henry , Hastings , and
Mclntyre. One of the best Souring
mills in the county is owned here by
Mann & Harvey.
Wilber is situated in the rich valley
of the Blue river. The valley is a
broad level plain all under cultivation
the river bordered with timber , winds
through the centre. On each side o ;
the plain the land rices into higl :
rolling prair.'e.
BOHEMIANS.
This choice tract of country , also
the neighboring valley , is watered by
Turkey and Swan creeks. The verj
garden of Saline county is settled anc
owned principally by emigrants from
Bohemia , of whom there are abou
1000 in tlie county. The Bohemians
are industrious aud frugal , of course
growing wealthy. They are largelj
republican in politics , and are fast as
similating with Americans by in
termarmge and mutual interest.
Many offices are tilled by Bohemians.
A. Y. Hisman was county treasurer

ThiscBunty seat is & Second Omaha
or political muddlers and family raia-
inderatandings. There is a gueh of f
xpectation over Senator Paddock's
isit next Saturday evening ; "Whom i
'entleiuGD , we shall elect spite oi
onr opposition. " This latter was a
ittle aiiilo spcccli. thrown in by Mr.
Dai-es on a lalu occasion , as the ob-
ect was not apparent on the surface i
md Mr. Dawes was believed to be 32-
: retly rpposed to Paddock. People
ire eyeing that bait before swallowing
t. They did not know they were op-
> osed to Paddock. That's where the
aujh came in. as
There is a very strong anti-Dawes
element in this precinct , which has
ately been stirred up anew by what
s claimed to bo a trick to decrease
ts vote In the coming county
convention , while at the sime time
ncreasint ; those of Crete , which holds
Mr. Dawes' interests. The trick , in
tentional or not , is this : While the
apportionment of delegates to the
state convention was based upon the
votes received by Judge Cobb , the ap
portionment to the county convention
was based upon the votes received by
Dr. Markland as county commissioner.
Why ? Dr. A ! . , for local reasona , re
ceived more votes in certain localities
than Cobb and less
than Cobb in cer
tain others. For instance , he got a
large vote in Crete , for which ho work
ed in the county seat fight , and less in
Wilber for the same reason. So of
otttbr localities. The result is that in
the convention Crete will have sixteen
votes to Yfilbor'a six , while on the
Cobb basis Crete would nave but
fourteen and " \Vilber nine. Thus ,
ou a vote where a division
might occur , it would make a
difference of five votes against Wilber
and the same for Crete ; a very telling '
difference and when brought about
by a cunning move on the board , cal
culated to promote bittar feeling and
a disposition to revolt. A protest ia
to bo made in the convention , and it j
is hoped the matter may be adjusted
on a right basis. The simple fact is
all such trickery defeats itself in the
end ; a settling day is sure to occur
wben the abuse receives its own with
usury. Many other matters of a sim
ilar kivjd have wrought a great change
toward Mr. Dawes since ,1870 , and ii
is very doubtful to-day whether h
could carry his own county on am
district vote. Nearly all the republi
cans oE Wilbor , excepting the post
master and the chairman of the precinct
cinct committee , are opposed to tin
man and his measures. The count
convention , which meets in Wilbei
the 28th , will have
a happy time
Several difficulties are to be bridge .63d
over. Mr. Wells wants the senate ;
and the Crete delegates are pledgee
for him. Mr. TVhitcomb wants it also
Mr. Dowes 10d

though , not by scheming and hints
He js afraid to Wells

funny sight indeed , looking from ih
struggle of ' 7C when
,
Dawes w.-u
saved from Wells' clutches by thi
skin of his teeth under the stal

others , to see Mr. Dawes now endorsi
