Along his magic wand of wirec

And old oppression's empire shake!

The Republican party was organ
lied and has been continued by men
who earn their bread by the sweat Of
their brow, and by that class Of work
ing men who were srG ci6ntly liberal
to accord TO every iDdiFid0al member
Of society the priviI Of c~ontroIin9
the fruits Of his.ow iasor. So that it
Is not only emphaaeally a working
mems party, but has The further virtue
Of being controlled by correct principles
Of Republican Government under the
significant name Of Republican. There
is no good reason then, why such q
party should be disturbed by the
conflicts everywhere apparent be-
tween the working men and those pO-
liticaI nabobs who seek to control the
Government for the purpose of putting
its iron head upon labOrers as a class,
commencing with color first and then
other marks Of distinction, until they
establish that arristOcracy which so
depressed the labor Of other countries.
Such turmoiis are Of annual occur
renee in the Democratic party, and
will be until it is purged Of its work
ing men, and until they range them
selves in their true party with Repub-
licans.

w. ID. Blackburn, Of the Falls City
Journal called upon us this week, on
his return from Pennsylvania, where
he has been visiting the past three
months. Mr.. Blackburn says thai
Southern Nebraska is attracting much
of the attention Of all classes Of men
in the East, and that they look upon
the project Of the Quincy Railroad
via. of Brownville to TT. KeaEny as
one of the most promising thorough
fares yet projected. Its shOrtness and
d~irectness in comparison with other
routes which tend in the anne direc-
ton, will draw heavy upon the capital
Of the country; and, unlike other
similar enterprises, there will be COM
petition among monied men for its
stock, rather than an effort upon the
part of its managers to secure purchas-
es at ruinOus discounts. Disinterested
men in the East are viewing the mat
ter in this light, and so are eager to
hear what may be said about the soil,
climate, settlements, improvements
and enterprises in this portion Of Ne
braska, to satisfy which Mr.. Black
burn was called upon TO lecture to
crowded audiences in various parts Of
the old commonwealth upon the pres
ent and future prospects Of this, his
adopted State.

We suppose that every thing which
is necessary to say about our Agricul-
turaI Fair commencing September q,
may be found on the Agricultural
page Of the ADvERTIsER, stiIl we can
not refrain from saying a word to our
many readers. This has been a year
Of great vegetable gfoWth. In every
department Of agricGIt6Fe the yield
has not only been Immense, passing
belief but The articles grown have
been fully developed en- size and qual-
|fty. Every farmer thinks be has MT
only the largest and best, but the
greatest quantity to the acre. And
hardly a farmer we see but tells us
what be intends 10 take TO the fair,
and what he expects must draw ap
MUM. aualno al @ Rus
Now, Nemaha County Is ackBowl-
edged to be the central figure in agri-
cultural development in the State. Il
perhaps takes the lead Of all Others in
this respect. More Of its lands are
under cultivation, and its farming
population is larger to the square mile
than that Of any ether; SO that il
anything can be done agriculturaIly
in Nebraska, It surely can be done in
Nemaha County.
This reputation viii draw to our
county fair many Of the best men OF
our state. III the week is favorable to
q general attendance, the fair win be
reported Tor the Omaha papers and the
New York TribGae. Col. =. b. Tay-
Ior Of the Republioan, and DIR. Miller
Of the Herald, viii each be on the
ground. Hon. p. w. Hitchcock, Gov.
Saunders, and Hon. ,. I. Redick have
promised 20 come down. Hon. j. T..
Grimm and Hon. D. IS. Parmelee, two Of
the largest farmers and stockholders
in Douglas county, viii be present
with q view to purchase improved
stock. An opportunity win certainly
be offered to show of our county to
advantage, and we know il can be
done If the farmers turn out en- 4sosse,
as we know they win, and bring with
them the best they have Ia every line
Of what they grow and raise.

The Little BEsie IS the title Of q new
Republican weekly published at Jen-
kins Mills, Jefferson county. It has
heretofore been nearly impossible to
learn anything reliable from this sec
ton Of cur growing State, but now we
hope q change is before us, and that
hereafter we shall read its history
from the columns of the Blue weekly.
jenkins Mills Is in JEFFERSON eOunty,
Ia the valley of the Little Blue, about
no miles west of BrOwnviIIe and some
twenty miles south, near the Kansas
line. The Little Blue is edited by
Mark J. Kelley, late Of the Washing
ton (Kansas) Observer. I'VE read in
its columns of the closing of public
schools; the reitting up Of store
rooms; mention made Of piles of lum-
Der at thesaw mill bigyield o wheat;
happy. farmers; pretty girls; brisk
business; high water; new buildings
going up; camp meeting; Sabbath
schools; drug stores; variety stores;
grading on Front street, ETC., etc. ; and
from it we clip the following.
Jefferson county is situnted in the
southwestern part Of the State, is
bounded on the south by Kansas, on
the north by Saline county, on the
east by Gage, on the west BY Nuckolls.
Area in square miles, 1852. Popula-
ton 5000, and rapidly increasing.
ChieftOWns, Jenkins Mills, FaiFbury,

undulating, very rich, and well adapt
ed to the raising Of all kinds Of grain,
and 70 grazing. There is no better
timbered or Watered county in the
State-alnost every section having
springs or streams of living water.
GOod timber plenty throughout the
county. The county is well adapted
to stock raising, to which great atten-
ton is given. Fruit Of all kinds does
wen. The principal products Of the
county are corn, wheat, oats and bar
ley, and all kinds Of vegetables grow
in the same latitude. Good Home
steads q yet be taken in the county.

we print this week a list Of text
books to be used in our common
schools. There ere various rumOrs
afloat accounting for this selection. It
was stated at the State Teachers Con-
ventiou last month that a person In
no way authorized had declared in
Chicago that the series herewith pub
lished was the one decided upon, but
no one then gave credenee to the re-
port which we now find to be correct.
We hope the books are the best in use,
and If 90, are heartily glad that the
matter is now settled. In Nsmaha
county the variety Of text books have
been as numerous as the schools, and
we might with some truth have said,
as the scholars. If uniformity is now
secured, we viii not further trouble
ourselves as ito who or for what's I'M
duced the selection. 4
