It's remarkable how unanimous the

Licnce , are in their ooposition to any
lifcturbanee of the officialbanes of ex-
senator Hitchcock.
NOT THE LEAST DASOEK.
Enterprise.
"Nebra ka in the Cabinet" is the
topic exciting the most discussion
through the state press at present.
Tae reasons for such a discussion ere
two : every other state has a candidate
for a cabinet position and Nebraska
not wish to bo bobind , and the
Lcuileman who is mentioned in con
nection with this honorable poshioi
f presidential adviser wants a little
dvertis".ng. P. W. Hitchcock Is the
ptty named , and the secretaryship of
she interior la the bicho assigned t. >
Lira , though of course neither he nor
his friends are particular as to the
place. We thought , when the subjeuf
was first sprung , that it was short
lived and only meant for a bi
oi dattery on the part of Mr. Hitch
cock's following ; but it has come t
&uch a pass that a number of news
papers in the Btatn have worked
themselves into a delightful ecstacy
over this famous gentleman and * hn
"utnojs" for the place , and seem tc
reilly believe that a cabinet position
h possible for him. It is not. Phin
eai W. Hitchcock will never Warm i
cabinet seat. Even were it possible
tli ere are two good reasons why h
shouldn't. The first is that there is :
host of abler men in the country am
the ablest men in the counlry an
wanted in the cabinet The matte :
of a state demanding recognition be
cause of her services and infiuenci
by having one of her. citizens place
in high rank in public service , is a1
nonsense unlees that- state can she
citizens who stand on a par withj o
superior to , citifisns of other etatea
Nebraska cannot yet do that , and
is no detriment to the state to suy so
She lacks the ago , the population , th
advantages in many ways , to product
ni2n wlio are abln to rank with Gar
! io1d , Conkling , Elaine , Grant , She
- nan , and hundreds of others-
might name. Put there is a sccon
reason why Mr. Hitchcock , even i
he State had some reaeon for urgin
iU claims , is not the man to ur e f >
this place. He has not the baCkiuj : o
the state let alone the Voice of thi
courtry. Scarcely a majority of the
citizens of Nebraska would favor Mr.
Hitchcock for a government clerkship ,
let alone a cabinet p isition. A man
for tuch a place should be eiidoracd at
le-ist by the republicans of hi own
state , before he cin aak the endorse-
maut of the republicans of The nation.

The railroads could undoubtedly do
much towards electing Church Howe

that he is one of tha most unscrupu

It the two members of the house
from Pawnee county open their
record by voting for Church Howe
for speaker they may expect the
wrath of an icdiguant people descend

cause he did net have to give Jay

thanks because the railroad Jungs had

T .o lezUUtcn elect returned thanks
for the railroad passes that
they have rzoalved or ere

Nanco returned thanks because the
Union Pacific are going to make him
a U. S. senator , and Lieut. Govern
or Cams gave thanks because the game
corporation are about to make a gov-
t rnor out of him. The railroad com
paniea offered thanks because the pao
pie of this country are so eagily gull
ed and made to p\y four prices for
transportation. The people of the
state of Nebraska return thinks , and
they have especial reason for doing SO )
because the time is so near at hand
when they can nay that the people run

NO MObE O1 THAT CHATF.
Su'tton Register.
An item copied from The Register
and credited toour local contemporary
w made the text of an editorial by The
Omaha Republican , in wnich it avows
that it would not dare to bo such a re
publican as Senator Saunders or Judge
Crounse or thpto "pig head" newspa
pers of this state that fail to whistle
its tune on all occasions. Just now
The Republican is furious , ifnotfrivo-
lous , in its protestations oLnarty fealty
and in its denunciations of any man
who m y have scratched & name on
the regular ticket.
DEFEATED AND DESPEBATB.
EUte Democrat.
It is rather a startling dispatch
which all of a sudden springs forth
from Omaha , tn the shape of a re
publican contest for four teats which
the democrats have secured in the
next legislating by an average ma
jority of not less than one hundred
votes } and wo nro ready for Another
dispatch from Seward , informing the
people of Nebraska that Claudius
Tones Intends to contest the seat of
Thos. Graham. The contests once
brought forth , the three democratic
senators may as well save themselves
the trouble and expense of coming to
Lincoln , lor their fate will be decreed
beforehand , and their eoats stolen to
bo given tomeu that never were elect
ed. Messrs. Doane , Howe , McShane ,
Paxton , members elect from Douglas ,
are not men who would resort to any
illegal devices to secure an office ;
those gentlemen are well known
throughout the state as men of irre
proachable character and then they
sre above suspicion. Then what can
be the cause ; what job h there to be
concocted fur which the votes ot
Contact , Locke.J Fox and Co. , are de
sired ; has not the Union Pacific railroad -
road votes enough In the senate and
house , and are these four men's votes
necessary to give it a decided majority
on joint ballot ? We anxiously await
fresh developments of this matter ,
not that we are particularly anxious
that there should be any democrats at
all in the next legislature , but for the
sole sake of showing how far republi
cans dare go in matters of political
infamy.
Tc anyone acquainted with the hla-
tr and course of The Republican
this merely provokes a smiles or a
grunt of contempt.
No later than just previous to the
last state convention , The Republican
thrextened , if Ihe opposing faction in
Douglas county obtained contro' of
jthe county convention , toj bolt , as it
"had done oq previous occasions , Its
. „ > - j-
of Btiper-loyalty to" the
prtv is a eham thst deceives no one 1
acquainted with its methods. R -
cently it hai devoted large space to
vilifying Senator Saunders , because ,
as it alleges , he did not support the
whole republican legislative ticket in
Douglaa county. Supposing the charge
be true , does The Republican account'
.such contiuctmore _ heinous _ than being
a candidate l > f "the 'oppsing party for
congress , as the men ifis.now enjjsged
in landing to the skies have been ?
thaeditor , of. The Rspubli-
an , who Greeleyized , think that
> oltinc a local ticket ia a crime in
omparison 1 Give us something be-
ides duff , gentlemen. . Half a dozen
amocrats , more or les * , do no great
larm in a legislature- that has 100 rem -
m : lican majority on joint ballot , and
; here may be greater crimes in the
alendar than scratching a name from
he regular ticket under these cir-
umstances. At any wte , the Rapub-
ican is in no position to crack the
urty whip or read anyone out of the
tarty.
If The Republican would give its
real reasons for its frothy Indignation
here would appear an animal of an
entirely different color from the one
now exhibited. But that is just
what it "dare not" do. In the opin-
on of The Register , its nsme would
> e "Power , Prestige and Plunder"
and that's what's the matter with The
Republican.

SAN FBAKOIS O , November 50.
After many a warm-hand pressure
direct pressure , at that from old and
true friends at Stirling which , by the
way , is ona of Nebraska's nicest small
towns on the 9th inst. your correspondent
pendent took the freight train for
Lincoln. Arriving there ; ho found
that the raih , which "had been pouring
down when we started , had turned to
snow , and the snow in turn had
turned to mud , and the streets in
consequence were well , like tholo of
Omaha. The 10th and llth were
passed in Omaha , where the mud was
thte k and eep enough id rethin'd one
of .Lincoln. "After filling up" ( the
valise and lunch basket I refer to ) ,
some tlmo on the afternoon of the
12tb , we left the best city west of the
muddy M'Bsouri for this place cf po
litic-it and social unrest. The inci
dents of the run .from the western
boundary of Nebraska till you reach
the foot-hills of the Biorrai , are of
but little interest. The country is
one vast stretch of mountains , rocks
Mid plains of sind.boverad rage-
bruMi , .lid alkali dust fills your nos
trils and your eya j though thb win ;
dews and door ? nf the ciis are keft
comfortably closed , the train's mott < h
stirs it up and every soul gets its full
share. No partial ! y ii shown in tins
respect. The most beaut f ol sicht ;
east of the Sierras is the Devil.'s slide ,
west of Ogden , seen by moonlight
wo had beautiful moonlight nights
nehrly all the way out. , ,
The most remarkable thlni ? abont
this slide in thf want of any apparent
reason w' y s , at . . .ship should
come than- ) d-ie i r for any other
purpose , if the people in that favored
locality are all right. Utah , one
would suppose , was well enough fixed
without any watching ) parhips ,
however , he pome's out occasionally
fora vacation with his friends if that
is sn , it is all right. On the train we
were fortunate enough to meet some
very pleasant people , as one is always
cortxin to do. Among them a Mr.
Smith and family and a Mr Fountain
and wife , all from Elmyra , N. Y. , on
their way to Riverside , Oal. , where
tney expect to engage in fruit raising
Riverside is near Jjos Angeles , and in
the heart of the fruit country of Call
The warm and uniformly salubrious
climate of southern California , is
rapidly making that portion of the
state a favored resort for those who
seek .relief or cure from pulmonary
trouble. Summer there means golden
sunihine , which rests like a burden
ever all the land for nine months , at
toast , of the year. Batj tb retiirn to
the subject ; as my friend Prestonj
a ys , after our long ride through bit-
Ing'dust , it was with an indltcrtabbla
sense * f relief , that we saw , in the
early morning of the 16th , pine trees
at the foot of the grandest mountains
on earth , and from thence down to
Gold Flute interest never fligs. There
are a succession of the finest
scene along this" portion of
the route , not barren as
the Rockeys , but varied with forests ,
rapid streams and lakes. Snow iheda
and tunnels through the mountains
shut off some of the finest scenes or
break them to occasional glimpses , but
from what yon see you know they are
there. From the summit of the
mountains yon go down without the
aid of steam. Swaying around
curves the train thunders along the
smoothest road bed a train ever pasted
over. The grade here is frequently
over one hundred feet to the mile , and
only the pressure of the breaks hold
you down to 25 miles an hour from
the Summit until Cape Horn is reach
ed , where we slow up , or down rather ,
to perhaps twenty or twenty-five
miles an hour. The scenery at
this point is really very grand. On the
right the mountains rise many hun
dreds of feet and on the left as you
come down and beow ! the window
you sit at perhaps a thousand feet ,
perpendicular ones at that.Spread out
in the valley you see the yellow soil ,
fruit trees of nil kinds and mazanura
bushes and the live oska of the elope ,
and over and above all the wonderful
blue skies of California ; they are like
only the sunshine , a blue and golden
Inheritance of the Pacific. Its no
wonder the children of of sunny Italy
love to live here , the very atmosphere
breathed is like the nectar you read of
but never taste because you are no

themselves. They wear as good ma
terial on their backs , many of them ,
as Pat. Hawes or Hascall.
Moody and Sankey are here shying
orthodox recks at tbe sinners of this
sinful ci y. Brother Sankey sings
that beautiful and atfectingly simple
church ballad , " 0 , where h my boy
to-night , " and Brother Bloody does
the really effective work by exhorta
ilon and in a nunner that is earnte
and manly , devout as faith itself.
They are occupying Dr. Stoue'o church
on Post street , and to night it was
filled to oveifljw'ina ; with men , a th's
was the card. Brother Moody's text
was , "He came to his own and they
received htm not. " He spoke of the
unbelief of the citizens of Galilee in
that day and tha similar unbelief of
the people of 'Frisco of this day.
He wanted to know If the merchant
princes of this city wanted' Christ , if
they , any of them , would entertain
him. as a welcome guest if he
were to appear now did they wish
him to overlook their ledgers and see
"shoddy" charged as imported goods.
D'd the bankers want Christ ? Did the
dtmocratio party wish the Son of
Man ? or any other patty for that mat
ter. Did the board of trade hunger
for an opportunity to listen at the
feet of Jesus ? No , there was no mora
room for the friend of publicans and
sinners now than there was when
more than eighteen hundred years
ago he came on earth the
grandest of martyrs and the
noblest of heroes ; the type of
perfection , bearing the form and sim-
litnde of man , but God like in char
acter , as God his father , God himself.
The church seats 2000 people com
fortably the seats wore ail filled and
and the asles crowded with standing
men. Your servant , perhaps mis *
taken for a clergyman , had a seat on
the platform. The next letter I will
