ED. CuIEF.-Thcre is little tranApir-
ing in this part Of the heritage outside Of
the regular routine of everybody minding
Ibis own business. But q short time ago
we had lively times on one Of the ordl-
nary but most unpleasant i.sues-divid-
ing a school district. A petition was
circulated to set off section SO and % liz
district No. 4, and annex them to dis
trict No. sc. The petition was granted
by the county Supt. No sooner was the
transfer made until a desperate but su;'
cessful attempt was made by the ConscT-
natives ibis. No. ~ to recaptuer the
(School House Dis. No. 4 which was
situated on N. Z. part Of Sec. 2S) to
gether with half the territory which was
lost in its first attack on Fl. Sump,er
school house.
But, alas! in the midst of the joyous
shouts of triumph which were raised, In
the ranks Of the Conservatives, ibis.
No. ~ the Radicals ibis. No. 81 rallied,
re~captured a portion Of the contested
ground which was taken from them BY
stratigem, and superior generalshir, and
compelled the Conservatives to recaptlu-
late. The smoke of the recent battle
has not yet entirely cleared away, AID
every wind that sweeps from the North
brings to our ears the threats from the
Conservatives o~frepewing the contest.
Now this is not right; We do not find
fault with the people, not any particular
individual; but it does seem that there is
a serious fault in our school law in re
gard to forming and dividing school dis
tricts. We hear of numerous cases OF
dissatisfaction arising out Of similar cir
cumstances in various parts Of the STATE.
We have no suggestions to make on this
issue, but ask those who have expert
ence and judgement, can not the school
law of Nebraska be revised so as to re-
tain all of its present good qualities, but
improve it sufficiently to dispense With
such de6cisscy as those which leave so
much room for controversy between
neighbors, friends, and even brothers in
many instances. BY this lameness Of the
law, the strongest bonds Of friendship
arc ruptured, hearts that once beat warm
aud true, grow cold and Indifferent, and
too often the main interests and best
methods CT public instructors ale neg
ected.

The Cawker CITY Murder,

On Wednesday morning. the 10th
inst, Cowker City was thrown into .
fearful state Of excitement by the report
that q most foul and covaIdly murder
had been committed in the town the
night before. An investigation showed
that the report was only too true. A
freighter from Kirwin by the name Of
William Frelrickson. on his way to Be-
lott after good,, on Tuesday, was accost-
ed en- the road by q negro who begged a
ride. The freightcr took him into his
wagon, and they Travelled on together
until they reached Cawker CITY, where
they put up for the night. They pu,
their team up at a feed stable, and went
up town to q restaurant where they got
their supper. After supper they wen,
back TO the stable and fed their team.
They then went up town again, and no
more was seen of them until the white
man was found dead under q c~ulyert,
shot in the back uf the head. The ne
gro, whose name is Charles Marshal,
being suspicioned Of the murder, wa,
traced to BeIoit and found in the barn
attached to Frank Mctiarth's hotel-the
Avenue House. lie had taken the muir
dered mans team with him and had
tried to sell it for $50. He was brought
back to Cawker City, where the widest
excitement prevailed, the streets being
filed with hundreds Of armed men, and
he was only saved from being lynehed ty
the most determined efforts on the part
Of the leading citizens of the town. He
confessed lis crime, saying that the white
man swore at him, and called him names,
and when lie turned to leave him he shot
him. He waived an examination, and
was sent TO Concor3ia and lodged in jail.
The murdered man lived seven miles
from Kirwis. As above stated, his
name was William Fredrickson, formerly
from Des Moincs, Iowa. He leaves a
wife and three little children ia destitute
circumstance.
1t turns out that the negro formerly
lived 10 Des Moines, Iowa, also, where
Eve years ago he killed young woman
in the employ of d. +. Allen, and fled
the country. Since that time he has
been in Colorado, and was just from the
new mineing town of Leadville, when he
killed his last victim. and not from Nico-
dcmus, as has been enormously report

The California Election.

San Francisco, Sept. 5.-Returns of
three fourths of the vote in the city
and state are counted. Perkins is lead
ing Glenn about 1850 and White
about the same. The completion of
the count will increase Perkins plu-
rality to twenty-five or three thousand
probably. In the city he will gain on
Glenn, and in the country on White
during the remainder of the count.
All the state ticket will go with the
head except justices, which cannot yet
be determined. 1t is now probable the
republicans will elect all congressman,
though very close in the city district.
Republicans elect a railroad commits
sioner in the northern district and the
workingmen theirs in the city and
southern district. Legislature still in

his Iced and is elected beyond doubt.
