the dust! No, we claim that OtOe has
driven the real wealth into Nemaha, and
to-day our whole Land District feels the
benefit Of the loyal stand so well taken
and firmly held BY Nemaha county.
Let US see as 10 the "Demcc cratic gain:
Last fall Sam't Campbell was brought
oOtby the Democracy against VIM. Il.
Hoover, Union nominee, and a thorough
v was made by the Democracy.
HOOver's majority then was 2O2. At
the election just past Rich's majority over
Bedford was 1877, while Buffers majOri-
" over Morton was 227!
MOrtOn's venom will never ipjure Ne.

potent rage; it only shows plainly the

Nemaha County.

This county. rich in we'll TILED farms,
peopled with the sons of industry and
blooming like a garden with growing
corn and emerald fields Of waving grain
sends up a majority against State" of
one hundred and forty.
Nemaha is a radical county. Pecuni-
arily, radicalism in Nemaha has been
Uery profitable tc Otoe County. II has
by ats intolerance and bigOtry, by fierce
fanaticism and jealous hatred of Democ-
racy driven one million of Dollars of
Missouri capital out of the boundaries of
Nemaha and into Otoe county. But
blind to its own interests in this respect
it has been true 10 them upon the State
question. More than that it has, since
last October, made a Democratic gain
of two hundred and two votes Web.
City WsUs, June 9Th, 1866.
With regard to the "sons of industry
of Nemaha county going against State,
this was undoubtedly occasioned by the
heavy taxes our people have had to pay
this year, which amounted to $50, 922 Is.
Although, of this sum, near one.third
vas voluntarily assumed for School
Houses and County Building, yet such
an increase naturally gave strength to
The cry of high taxes, made many fear
ond doubt, and finally give themselves
Il benefit of the doubt-as they supposed
by voting against State. This is I'M
doubtedly the key to Nemaha's anIi.State
vote.
Now, as to the "intolerance and bigot-
~" of the 'sons of industry" of Nema-
ha county: let US see whom the Union
party of Nemaha county has steadily
warned from locating within its bounds 7;
the stand taken here by The Union party
was the very opposite of that taken by
the Copperhead party Of OtOe, as shown
by the following extract from the Ne
br0ska City Nevs, of July LIST, 1866:
THE DISTINGUISHED citizens Of Missouri
will unquesiionably seek new homes
The overriding of honor and equity, and
the entire lack Of charity exhibited by
the abolition rulers of the State, having
deprived them of all privileges of citi.
zenship, they will take up their beds and
go to some more hospiIable region. WE
INVITE THEM TO NEBRASKA
Our p~rairies are wide enough, our vallies
rich enough to afford them all homes.
and our population all tolerant enough
not TO further deprive them of their in.
alienGble right Of having a voice in civil
and political affairs"
This invitation was not, anG never will
be, endorsed by the Union men of Ne
maha county, and we have never heard
a sound Union man regret that the above
invited class went to Otoe instead Of this
county. As to the wealth, it is strange
that we should have driven one million
dollars worth Of property into Otoe and
yet the increase in OtOe county be only
a little over one half million! Again.
in counting wealth, Morton should re.
member that Union men will not settle
where distranchised bnshwhackers, gner-
rillss and Prices cut-thrOats are received
with open arms, and where they are in
sufficient strength to boast in broad day

Our Railroad Connection East.

-
The following we find in the Nebras-
ka Statesman, of the 9th. and believe
it is a correct statement, but doubt the
completion of the road in the lime
specified
1.-The Council Bluffs and ST. Joseph
Railroad Company, lhrough their Presi-
dent, Mr.. Willis Phelps. has purchased
from the State of Missouri. that portion
of the Platte county railroad, lying north
of St. Joseph, paying therefor Sl5O0OO
in Missouri bonds, being one-haIf of the
price asked by Gov. Fletcher, last Feb
ruary. The purchase is coupled with an
obligation TO complete the road 10 the
Iowa State line before the LIST day Of jan
uary 1867. The road it is known is now
in running order from ST. Joseph 10
Savannah, and the grading is complete TO
Forest City. The remainderof the route
TO the Iowa line is nearly if not all upon
the "boitom," and is of very easy o o
slruction. The purchasing company have
effected their arrangements for putting
on at cnce a large force of labOrers, and
will push with the utmost energy. the
necessary work upon the whole length Of
the line"
This, under the circumstances, is our
first best hope for an eastern connection
by rail. If necessary our county should
assist this enterprise as much as lies in
our power. The main fraighting to and
from the eaststO this Land District will
be over this road when completed ; and
in this connection
A Steam Ferry Boat
between this place and Scott city. will be
the best investment that can be made in
this section. This ferry will do all the
carrying business of freight and passen-
gers from this point, which is the natural
outlet for the most fertile region of Ne.
braska. This Ferry Privilege now be-
longs to the city of Brownville. and
most liberal offers have already beer
made by the city to get a boat in, too
liberal, in fact; the charter privilege is
now worth $1,000 a year with a good
steam ferry, and is constantly on the in
crease. We hope our Council will take
steps to advertise the fact that a steam
ferry is needed here, its paying induce,
ments, and the best proposition they can
offer 10 the owner of a boat to bring il
to this point.

MiIlers. Be Warned !

A terrible calamity has just befallen
the citizens of Waikiki Valley, in Orange
county, N. Y. Near 300 persons have
been poisoned by eating -four in which
lead had been ground. The lead had
been used at Thomas Marsh's mill 10 fill
up holes that had been worn into a pair
of old burrs, and had thus been gtound
off into The -four. In its natural state
lead is not a dangerous poison, but when
fermen.ed in bread, is transformed into
carbonate of lead, a deadly poison
Many of the persons thus %poisonened
escaped death because of the large dose
taken into the stomach, which by vOmit-
ing them, brought it up again, but are
reported dying by degrees from the
effect of what re nained in the system
quite a number died Immediately. This
terrible diseases it was supposed to be
ragged for some time ere its cause was
dis covered. A more terrible warning ia
miIlers can hardly be realized, and the
practice of thus mending old burrs should
be stopped by law. Suits for damage
have already been brought against Mr.
Marsh amounting to upwards of $4,000,
