got mad with him. Now | guess Eli is
getting mighty dry and wants them free
drinks back again. SO he is trying to make
his peace with the whisky man by pitching
into them that have been going for his bust
ness; aud lac is willing to abuse the men
that want to save people and keep the TWEEN
ty-Seven hundred dollars in the hands of the
fellows who earn it and out of the whisky
sellers claws
Mr.. Editor, we fellows know who our
friends are. When some of us lave been
discharged for drinking, who was it that
went and begged for us aud got us work
again? Not rum sellers and Eli, YOU bet:
but the minister that has made it mighty
hot fog rum sellers and pimps and has done
great deal to keep us from giving our
money to him for rum. Those sermons
were pretty hot on rummies They made
lot of drinking men squru2 as we'll as
liquor sellers; but we fellows know it is all
true; aud you bet Mr. Rumseiler won't iin-
gle twenty seven hundred dollars Of our
money in his pocket this year, and he will
jingle less another. He talks about asking
pardon. | wonder if Eli has asked pardon
of the poor women and children to whose
folks he used to sell whisky and take the
money that ought to have gone to buy
bread. SO you ale a fine fellow to preach
morals, amt you? You had better roll the
saw logs out of your own eyes first.
And iu that store where the thing was
got up, they were in high glee over the first
letter Of Els, and passed it around to all
who came in, for them to see what a smart
thing it was. | reckon they laughed on
the other side of their mouths when they
heard from Fair Play. and the whisky folks
have layed injured iuH0cence right smart
ever since. reckon you VIII have IA fine
time poking fun at this letter, Eli: and |
reckon you will find it mighty sight easier
doing it than getting over it's facts. and
don't forget it. 1t may be | could write
better If | bad been selling whisky, read
ing the papers, and writing nhoppsrs about
folks instead of making iron. That would
be good thing for you TO do, for you had

LETTER FROM THE WEST.
OMAHA, Nebraska, March Bird, 1877

OMAHA Nebraska, March 3rd, 1877.
DEAR HIG:-Since November last all
eyes and minds have been turned toward
the political situation of our country, SO
that news letters have been below par, un
less containing some new idea in regard to
counting electoral votes or multiplying
small numbers into larger ones. AS Ne
blaska was one Of the first points of attack
we felt some interest as to the means used,
etc. The sequel has shown the signal fail
ure of the manipulators. Much credit to
one of Maryland's sons, who resented the
foul suggestion to berry his constituents, is
due. All hopes being frustrated, the at
lacking parties thought they could see in
the dim distant Oregon a weak spot to hurl
their arrows of poison which, for a time.
seem to afford some comfort to the enfee-
bled, and which has only resulted in vexa-
ton of spirit without accomplishing the
object intended And now we are glad to
see Nebraska doing her duty in purging
ont her own impurity aud sending man
to represent her in the /. 5. Senate, who
will not only discharge the duties incum
bent upon his position, but be a credit to
the young State he represents and add a
cubic foot to the stature of the Republican
party he represents. We hope to see the
legislative halls filled with just such men
as Gov. Saunders.
The intcrt s. of our farmers is beginning
to be turned To the all absorbing grass hop
pers, which are beginning To show SEINE
fruit from the large deposit Of eggs made

last August. Many are confident that their
early Matching will prove fatal as there
will be no nourishment for them and the
frosts at night will be fatal to their exist
ence. They are yet mystery to many as
to their mission. Various methods will be
resorted to to destroy them should they
make an aggressive move this Spring.
Should they determine on an Eastern ex-
curSion the ensuing Summer, we will try
and apprise you of their intentions with
the best means to contend against their
aggressive movements.
We are having pleasant weather 70: some
weeks past, after genuine Winter for some
sixty days. Farmers are improving the
opportunity TO sow Spring wheat, which is
the principal crop of wheat west of the
Mississippi Sincerely yours,
