"What's the reason that Hi. Laird * ap
point mantwasnot sufficiently advertis
ed by the etatft central committee ? Isn't
it the business of the chairman of the
committee to see that speakers are od-
Tcrtiscd in the proper localities ? This
IB not the only complaint that comes
cf the delinquencies of the state com
mittee in this regard and it it due to
both speakers and people that it should
bo immediately attended to.
BOTH political parties in Ohio and
Indiana are straining every nerve to
bring out the fall vote. Ohio is cer
tain to give a good republican major
ity , nod in Indiana there are strong
hopes entertained by the republicans
of reducing the democratic majority
of ' 76 , if not of sweeping it entirely
out of existence and electing Porter ,
the gubernatorial nominee. Republi
cans must not raise their expectations
to too high a pitch in c&lcnlating the
chances on Indiana. A ten years de
mocratic majority must bo overcome
In orJor to carry the state for the re
publican nominees. Money has
flawed unstintedly from the demo
cratic committee , nnd the state has
been colonized by eastern
ward bummers , striken and
repeaters. The gain of Indiana by the
republicans would be a political over
throw for the domocracywhlle demo
cratic access would be no loss to the
republicans. With a fair vote the
democratic majority willbe greatly re-
ficuoS or entirely blotted out , and in
ruch on event General GarSeld'a elec
tion in November is assured.

A FREE BALLOT.
Within the past week two demo
cratic plots-each having for thsir end
ths corruption of the ballot box , have
beonexposed to tha sunlight of pub
licity. The first instanca was the dis
covery of a wioe reaching eoheme In
tie city of Philadelphia for the isSus
of bogus naturalisation papers. The
parties have been arrested and lodged
in jail , and seyeral prominent Demo
crattc politicians are so deeply im
plicated that tha organs of the party
seeing the game frustrated are turn
ins ? their batteries againif the would-
be thieves and denouncing the scheme
as a frand and outrage. Accord-
f '
*
ins to i the developments made
th parties "participating jn the
affiir have been at wnrk for some two
months past. A regular traffic in false
oaths was systematically carried on ,
the prisoners sometimes- personating
the reputed alien and forging his sig
nature and in other cases committing
downright and deliberate perjury by
falsely vouching for him. The schema
was exposed .by the simple device o :
sending postal cards to the eddress'ei
given by the applicants when hal :
wore found to be churches and back'
eheds and the other half the residences
of reputable citizens who were entirely
Ignorant of the transaction. Over
one thouand1 bogus naturaliztlioa
papers were found to liavo boon
issued in the Interest of the dem
cratic chairman of the committee ,
all of which would have been
voted on had the plot proved success
ful. The other plot had for its ob
ject the colonization of Ohio and In
diana with Philadelphia repeaters and
was manipulated by that veteran cor
rupfloniat Wm. H. Barnum. OH the
2nd of October he telegraphed to Bill
McMulIen , a Philadelphia striker , i
furniah him with an approved assort
ment of his repeaters which he wishei
sent immediately to Cincinnati. Previous
vious dicpatchaa from Mr. Barnum t
the same rource , had provided for In
diana which is overrun withPhiladel
phia , New York , and IBaltimon
bummers under the pay of a Qnitec
States senator , the chairman of thi
national democratic committee.
These are two instances cf whatth
democracy mean by a fair count and
free ballot , and in the face of sue
damning exposures the honest men c
the country are asked to cast thoi
ballots for the democratic candidates
AN OUTSPOKEN PROTEST.
The revolt of the people againtt th
packing of conventions by monopolies
is becoming very general throughou
the state. The convention held by th
republicans of Seward county las
wetk has been followed by a call fo
au indcpcndont anti-monopoly move
mcnt. The spirit that animates thi
movement may readily bo seen from
the following extract from the protes
signed by sixteen delegates of the ) at
convention :
As republican voters and delegate
to the county convention , free from
the toils of the "railroad machine" a >
organized in this county , free from th
influence of bribes of railroad tool
that ara plying their nefarious work in
brjllian'A nnd other parts of this
btate , frca from the entanglements of
party spoils or the diviision of corrup
tion money , we enter our most
solemn and firm protest against
the nomination of any man
aa a candidate on the legis
lative ticket who i iu any way con
nected or controlled by railrcnd com
panies or men owned by BIICU monop
olies that have controlled and etill
seek to control legislation in this state
in favor of their monopolies , and thus
discriminating against the farmers ,
the merchant ! and laborers of this
state.Wo
Wo believe the time hss come when
the people must guard their rights
and prevent the tyranny of railroad
monopolies seeking to control the leg
islation of our commonwealth.
Against the nominatian of Claudus
Jones , who is known to be iu the in
terests of iftilroids , and all men
whom E. 0. Cernes controls , who is
merely an employee of Ihe Dniou
Pacific railroad company , we enter
our protest.
That the primary elections of dele
gates iu different precincts bare been
carried by unfair means in the in
terest of these railroad men , there
is no room to doubt , and as the con
vention cannot possibly reflect the
interests or sentiments of the repub
lican voters of Seward cdur.ty , we
mo6t respectfully withdraw from the
further deliberations of this body or
ganized in behalf of railroad monopo >
lies ; and protest against the doings oi
this gathering of railroad hireling !
being heralded abroad as the expres
sion of the republican voters of Seward
county.
This protest was of course promptlj
laid on the table , and at onca a cal
was issued for a convention which
should represent the Interests anc
views of the people , and the nominee :
of which shall bo pledged to carry oui
tha sixth plank of the republican plat'
form to prevent cxtorticn and dia
crimination In charges by railroad cor
porations , and who will pledge them
selves to introduce , if necessary , anc
labor for a bill to reduce and rcgulati
freight and passenger tariff over thi
railroads of this state.

RITERTON , Neb. , Octobers.
To the Editor of TUB BSE.
Short crops In this part of Nebraska
and parts of Kansaa this season fur
nish , a kind of excuse for an army of
beggars in feirch of employment and
tr.xrel to go through the eastern states
and draw as lively pictures of distress
as their lively imaginations can invent
for the purpose of getting money oui
of the people. Thia army of beggtrs
have already commenced to move and
and freah one start out daily. They
are holding meetings in Iowa and Illi
nois , working eastward. Is it not
time this business -was exposed. It
m y furnish lucrative employment to
those engaged it , but it is ruinous to
the reputation of the state.
In the Eottlement of a new country-
there are always more or less that need
help through the winter. This num
ber -will be somewhat increased in this
locality this winter owing to the par
tial failure of crops in this valley.
But why has not the governor sent
properly commissioned parties hero to
Bee just what amount of such help
will be needed , that the state may
furnish it ? The crops in the eastern
portion of the state are good , and the
state is amply able to meet all such
demands for help. There are no de
mands for help in this county which
the county itself cannot meet , as it al
ways does. .Besides thia the
B. _ & M. 11. R Co. have generously
decided to continue work on their
road westward this winter for the pur
pose of giving employment to those
needing it in the counties west of this.
So it will be seen that there ia no need
for thia outride begging on the part of
a class of persons who start out un
authorized and in their own interest ,
facts which the people of the east
should understand both for their own
good and ours. J. M. S.

Nebraska Republican Platformr
1. The republicans of Nebraska most
heartily endorse the' profession ot princi
ples formulated by the national republican
convention at Chicago , and pledge their
unswerving support to the candidates there
ominated.
2. Wo affirm the doctrines of national
sovereignty in the formulated principles
upon which the perpetuity of the nation
reuts , and that tha principle of home rule
as enunciated "by the democratic party is
but the cautions expression of the Calhoan
doctrine of state rights , revolutionary
in -sbaractcr and destructive cf the
unity of the nation.
3. We regard the ricent seizure of the
polls and the wholesale robbery cf the
franchises of the republican citizens of Al
abama , surprising in the magnitude and
effrontery of the crime of all former efforts
of the party under the Tweed plan in New
York , and the Mississippi plan in the
south , aa i\ fair specimen of democratic
method and a forecast of democratic do
million in national affairs that should in >
cite every honest man and taxpayer in the
country to most earnest endeavor to de
feat the partv of brigan3age and fraud at
the polls in November.
4. We have considered "what _ Lee and
Jackson would do if tbey were alive , " and
have determir.eil to employ our best ener
gies in preventing the sei7ure of the nation
al government by their livinc comrades
thronch the frauds of the aolid south.
5. We congratulate the people of the
state upon the rapid increase of popula
tion and wealth , and upon the good meas
ure of prosperity that has rewarded their
labor , upon tha rapid upbuilding of our
material interests since the suceess of re
sumption and the revival of trade.
< j. We pledgSicmr support to such legis
lation in cor JVa and such measures by
stile legislatures as may b necessary to
effect a correction of abuses and prevent
extorlionnte discrimination in charges by
railroad corporations.
7. We most cordially invite the aid and
co-operation in the latest defense of the
national integrity and national purse of all
republicans and war democrats who have
ditfered with us on temporary issues , or
h ave clung to the party name.
Resolved , That wo heartily join in the
recommendation made by General Garfield
in hia letter of acceptance in urging upon
congress the speedy improvement of the
Missouri river for barge navigation.
