Everywhere one can hear Tilden
pettifoggers declaring that Tilden
broke the Tammany ring and punish
ed Tweed as a cO-worker, &c. Now
when New York Democratic papers
like the Albany Times, always ae-
credited as reliable and good authority
says he was "co-worker with Tweed
for years." we must believe that he
was. The Times says:
There is great stress put upon the
services of Tilden in breaking up
the Tweed Ring" Tilden was CO.
worker with Tweed for years, and
did not open his mouth against him
until Jimmy O'Brien and the New
York Times had furnished many of
the leading facts to the public. When
it was discovered that an outraged
community could no longer stand the
frauds of the Rings, but were deter
mined TO break them up, then it Oc-
cnred to our great railroad inancier
that the OppOrtune moment had ar
rived for him to make capital out OF
the facts of fraud with which for years
he had been familiar. Had the pub
lie remained Indifferent to the frauds
of Tweed, there is no reason to doubt
that Mr. Tilden would have been as
mum as a mouse up to his very day.
Now is not this record written with
in Tildens own party, an exceedingly
obnoxious one for honest men to con-
Democratic paper in Tilden's own
state is much better helper to cor
rect conclusion, than any Of the bare
assertions of the halfsilly half drunk
en- and totally inscriptions Tilden

- On Friday of last week, Septem-
ber Let, a north wind brought the
grasshoppers upon US. During the
day countless millions flew over, and,
comparatively speaking, but few stop
ped with US, but there were more
than we want. They are here yet,
and depOsiting their eggs. They are
doing, as yet. no damage, or at least
very light damage to crops. They
pasture new rye fields very closely,
but corn, all of which is about matur-
ed, seems to be untouched by them.
The damage to our county is only, as
yet, in anticipation-next spring
when the young hopper and vegeta-
ton appear at the same time but we
think no serious damage, like that of
the spring of 1870, need be apprehend-
ed, from the fact that they are not
sufficiently numerous now, to fill the
soil with eggs as they then did.

A Democratic organ in Chicago has
been looking up Governor Hayes re-
turns ofpersonal property at Fremont,
o., disliking to have all the expense of
such investigation for nothing, pub
fishes a roorback to the following eff
feet; The uncle of Governor Hayes
left him large fortune, but the latter,
in listing his personal estate, returned
it as follows: Under the head Of en-
umerated items Sc, I20 in one year,
and s.. 2G0 in another. Under the
head of personal property, not includ
ed in the enumerated items, So, 900
in 1915, and $4,000 in 1876, making a
total, as last given, of 50, 200. This is
pretty well. Even when the value of
property was estimated at double It's
price to-day "Uncle Birchard" retur-
ned his estate at only 50, ,9S2. After
giving away to other relatives $40 600
the balance of the property went to
Governor Hayes, and though, as usual,
much of the personal estate was doubt
less disposed of, the Governor still
makas an honest return like an honest
man. It's no use. They can't catch
him. The more they investigate his
character the brighter it shines. There
is no way but to turn round in despair,
and demand the withdrawal of the
New York periurer, putting up an
honest man. ifthey can find one in
the party, in his place. Unless they
do this the Democratic goose is cooked.

The Republicans of Nemaha City
and vicinity had a rousing meeting
ct the school house on last Friday
evening, and got big ''send off" in
the formation of a Hayes and Wheel
er Campaign club. Good Templar
Hall was filled with an enthusiastic
audience of gentlemen and ladies.
J. S. Stull and t.. l.. Schick of this
city delivered addresses which were
highly appreciated as the frequent
applause attested. A large number of
the Brownville Hayes and Wheeler
club were in attendance, and the
Brownville band was down, drawn
by four gray horses of the Transfer
company. The large number present,
the speeches, the music, served to
provoke enthusiasm and make the oc-

On Thursday evening of this week
the club will meet to perfect its organ

1 think that if every thinking man
would consider before they vote, they
would not vote for Democrat, for we
know that every rebel was a Demo-
crat. do not say that every Demo-
crat was rebel, for there were few
loyal Democrats in the war, and SO
there Is now, but it is not Tilden and
Co. 1t is the hope of the rebels TO
gain their President, and then it will
be as one of the rebels said the other

would fight the war over again.
