In an hour of peril to all that an
American holds dear, need he be
urged to do his duty by his country ?
With the great danger that tie nation
will again relapse into the disease OF
war, before loyal men, should it be
necessary to urge upon every patriot
the duty of devoting next Tuesday to
his country? More treason is to-day
blated from every Democratic stump
i'm the North than came from the
whole host of Northern copperheads
in go and '61! More hope is ingen-
dered in the bosoms of Unrepentent
traitors by the apathy of the loyal
North, than has been felt by them
since the days of the first Bull Run
While the success ofthe "lOst cause
is predicted by Southern rebels upon
the event of the Democracy coming
into power, andtheN Northern DemOcra-
CIV breathe notification and revolution
in their platform of principles, is it the
place of patriotism to stand idle and
smile, or t work? Every success of De
mocracy at this falls elections, no mat
ter how small, will give hope to trea-
sOn-add fuel to the incendiary fire OF
rebellion, kindled by the Democracy
at New York, and every defeat will
depress that hope and extinguish that
flame.
Remember, Republicans, that war
is threatened; remember that a de-
feat at the polls of the Republican
cause will make that threat a reality +;
and remembering this, devote the
whole of next Tuesday to fight with
the ballot-to work for your country
for your Iiberty-for peace and pros
perity. Should but a partial defeat
rest upon the Republican cause at the
polls "the nextbreeze that blows from
the South would bring to our ears the
sound of elashing arms - whereas,
1.-THE prestige of a glorious success will
bring to our country peace, prosperity
and happiness.
Republicans work, early and late,
next Tuesday! Recruit fer the army
of peace next Tuesday, and save re
cruiting for real battleL Stand by
your ticket! Scratch not a man.
The ticket, right or wrong, should
be the motto of every Republican mex
Tuesday.

III W. AAoN - AAl%An
A certain young man by the name
of Tucker, has been making himself
very disagreeable at some of our Re
publican meetings, by directing I'M
gentlmanJy language to our gallant
and c%hivalrous candidate TO- the State
Senate. The only result he has thus
far achieved, has been the exposing
of some of his own dirty negro-robbing
proclivities while a soldier of the Ne
brask LIST. 1 would advise the yong
man to cultivate a more gentlemanly
department in the future, or it will
become necessary to inform the public
of the kind of practices to which he
has been addicted, although humani-
ty may be caused to blush at the
recital. COB.

There is a fragrant, but rather omi-
nous m troubling a lonely and
just now somewhat diseonsolate maid
in Brownvllle, waited upon the gentle
winds of the Southwest, to the effect
that our whilom friend and co-labor-
er, T. R. Fisher, of the Pawnee Iri-
6une, has been presented by that faci-
mating member of society called the
"widder," with q well arranged and
sweet scented boquet of flowers. Bro.
Fisher, please remember your vow.
Don't be seduced from the honorable
path of rectitude or that line of con-

who now fears the wiles and the
cunning of the "~sprightly wilder" of
Pawnee. Fisher, do be careful, re-
member that all is not gold that gilt

EDITOR ADVERTISER SIR: Isee by
the BrownviIle Journal of Sept. Both
that a young gent styling himself Re.
publican misrepresents the organiza.
ton of our Tanners Club.
For the information of Repu5Hean
I will state that our club was not or
ganized at Harman's School House.
but on the night referred to had met
there to meet the club from Sonora.
j. K. left is not LIST. Lieut.. but Or
derby Sergt.
Our club meets regularly in North
Star and no where else.
/ also e by the same article thai
"Messrs. Blackburn" of the Journal,
done all the talking at Harman's,
also at Excelsior School House. Fol
the information of your readers ]
would say that they did not. There
were other speakers present who adj
dressed the meeting at Harman's
School House, and at Excelsior there
was but one Blackburn present, w. D.,
and he took a back seat for some cause,
unknown of course to me. Mr.. Welsh,
our candidate for Representative, and
Maj. Kelly of Brownville done the
talking at Excelsior, and at Harman's
Mr.. Welsh, Maj. Kelly, DR.. Black
burn and w. D.. Blackburn.
Now for my part I don't know why
Republican should so studiously avoid
speaking of the Maj. unless he is
afraid that he may become more pop
ulur than the writer of that article,
which he, the Maj. is already becom-
ing very popular in this county,
while said Republican is very unpop-
ular.
Yours for the right.

The Democratic party is not a party
of any settled national Policy, but it is
simply a party of opposition. 1t goes
back upon its record. It goes back
upon its platform, and it goes back
upon its principles. 1t advocates one
policy in one locality, and quite an
other, in another locality. 1t fights
the canvass upon personal issues and
by appealing to the prejudiees, the
passions, or the self interests of indl-
viduals. 1t promises every thing any
set of men think they need and ful-
fills nothing. Power and plumber is
what they crave, and their is nothing
too mean, or so low they would not 90

Gen. Wade Hampton, in a speech
at Charleston S. c., giving an account
of his stewardship at the New York
Convention said, the members OF the
Democratic national convention,
promised the South all they asked II
they would not insist in setting II
forth in the platform, as, if itwere pun

for they know the people woulo
not support the measures they were

County Tickets.

III County AtCketSs
Our County Ticket is one of the
strongest ever nominated in Nemaha
County.
THos. J. MAJORS, for the State SEN
ate, was one of the first to enlist in the
service of his country to suppress the
rebellion, and for m%eritoriOus conduct
in the face of the enemy was prOmot-
ed to the position of Major.
GEO. Grow is one of the Oldest in
habitants in this county, and has serv-
ed its best interest i'm the Legislature
so often and faithfully that his re-elec-
ton will be but ajust tribute to merit.
GEo. E. SHOOK, though a new man,
is one of such ability that his election
viii be both a benefit and credit to the
party.
HENRY STIENMAN has creditably
served this county as Commissioner,
and will as truly serve its best interest
in the Legislature.
JARVIS S. CHURCH, being out can
wasting at this writing, We may say,
we believe will make his mark in our
Legislative halls. Being both con-
versent with the law and the wants of
this county, his election cannot but
inure to the benefit of his constituents.
A. J. RITTER, for County Commits
sioner, is a nomination which all can
endorse. Nj. Ritter was one of the
first settlers in this county, and has
remained one Of the steadiest promo
tiers Of its progress and prosperity
Sober, industrious and economical, he
has, in his own private affairs, given
such evidence of ability as will war
rant the prediction that in his hands
the County's affairs viii be safely and
economically managed.

The Republican Tickets.
State Ticket.

We cannot too often or too strongly
urge upon Republicans to stand by
their Ticket, not only because of the
necessity in this campaign to sustain
Republican principles, but because of
the merit Of the men who compose it.
JOHN TAFFE, candidate for Congress
has time and again, in our Legislative
halls and in Congress, rendered Ne
braska such signal service as her peo-
pie are not likely soon to forget. In
every position and occasion he has
acted as an impartial defender and
maintainor of the interests of the
whole State of Nebraska. The mean
estthing the Democratic press can say
Of him is that he is that "noblest work
of God, an honest man."
DAVID BUTLER, candidate for Gov
ernOr, has by his management of his
own private affairs and his manage
ment Of Il State affairs as Governor
proven himself well fttedto WELD the
executive power of the State. So base
and false have been the charges made
against him by the Democratic press
that even A. f. Harvey-who permits
none to outstrip him in dirty work for
the Demo-rebel cause-takes up his
defence and hurIs back the false
charge of "swindling" into the teeth
f its authors.
THos. p. KENNARD, candidate for
Secretary, and JOHN GILLESPIE, can
didate for Auditor, have both served
the State so acceptably in these posi-
tions that the people viii undoubtedly
retain their services, and should. Mr..
Gillespie served his country in the
army with honor and distinction.
JAMES SWEET, candidate for Treas
urer, is aresident Of Nebraska City, and
one in whom the entire people have
condence.
o. P. MASON, for Chief Justice. This
name should be placed upon every
ticket, for this reason: The DemOcra-
cy hold that the Governor has no power
to fill a vacancy beyond a general cleo
ton, and to test the point and, if pos
sible, to gain a Chief Justice, have
nominated a nan for the position, and
the Republican State Central Commit
tee have nominated Hon. o. p. Mason.
Every Republican should vote and
work for his election.
