Four whitewood logs, one 10 feet and
the others IL feet long, and averaging 4
feet in diameter, were hauled in from Ply
mouth last Friday to Bugbee's saw mill.
One of the logs, which Mr.. Bugbee esti-
mated to weigh from $500 TO 5000 pounds,
was drawn up the Gulf hill, on a pair of
beb-sleds, by Mr.. j, W. Rockwell's two
horses. NeWS.
So far from these logs averaging four
feet in diameter, permit me to say that
two of them of Mr.. Bugbee's selection,
scaled respectively 80 and 40 inches, and
in respect to one Of them being drawn up
on bob-sleds up the Gulf hill, the fact is
it took Mr. Rockwells team and second

For a month previous to our county
convention the Globe daily had some
Fly fling at Church Howe and the

tlon to it because it never in a single
item told the truth, thus hui ting no
body down this way, but rendering itself
'idiculous by its manifest ignorance of
what it was tall ing about. We suppos-
ed that after the convention it would
have sense enough TO "hold up" and
not place itself in antagouism with the
Republicans of Nemaha county, but we
see it is not disposed to do so, but viii

Republican nominees. Now we will

Democratic editors and orators are
attempting to answer the charge of in
tended unSettlement of the war issues
on their part by calling attention to the
fact that the reconstruction acts have
been sustained by the Supreme Court,
and that that tribunal is largely Re
publican in politics. But how about
the Democratic Supreme Court pro-
posed by bill now pending before
Congress, introduced by Mr.. Manning,
of Mississippi, rebel Brigadier? 1t
provides that the Supreme Court shall
cnsist of twenty-one Judges, instead of
nine as at present; that they shall be
divided into three co-equal sections of
seven Zachary one section to be ca
pable of deciding any matter not in
volving a constitutional question, but
that on all constitutional questions the
whole twenty-one shall sit. With the
twelve new Judges to be appointed by
a Democratic President, if elected, the
Court would consist of fourteen Demo-
Gratis and seven Republicans. 1t is
very easy to imagine how such tribu-
nal would decide any of the war ques-
tons. 1t would not require a whole
year for it to fulfill Congressman
Blackburn's prediction, aud wipe from
the statute books every vestage of war
legislation. This is the feast TO which

In 1876 Hayes carried Maine by 49,.
$50 majority over Tilden. In 1875
there were thFee candidates for Gov.
ernor. Conner, Republican, received
56,519 votes; Smith, Greenbacker, Al.
404; GarceiOn, Democratic, 1872. The
combined vote over Conner was 12-
757. In 1879 the Republican vote for
Governor sS,766; the Greenback vote
was 1850; the Democratic vote was
21,66S. Combined opposition to the
Republican it will be observed was re-
duced from the vote of '7s to a majo :
ty of only 492. This year it seems thai
the fused opposition have gained tt
Tie on Governor, leaviog the Congress-
ional representation as it was, and the
Republicans a large majority in the
legislature. State elections n Maine
are uncertain as to n1ajo ties, but for
President she casts her electoral vote
for the Republican ticket. Garfield is
more certain to carry that STATE than
was Hayes. There is no doubt about
that.

Inter Ocean: There is no common
need that the government can remedy
so easily as by furnishing the people
with fractional currency that can be
sent through the mails. We do not
want to lose our silver pocket money,
but We want a paper currency too.
Major Powers, the accomplished Chief
Clerk of the Treasury Department,
has made suggestion, which, while
open to criticism and Improvement,
is deserving of careful consideration.
He proposes that there shall be spec
ial issue of legal tender one and two
dollar notes, which shall be printed on
their face as they now are, but that the
back shall be divided i1tofour separate
notes, each with the obligation of the
COVE. Iment. The plan is that these
notes shall go into circulation as a
whole, and that persons who desire to
use fractions of dollar may cut
the notes. and that the parts shall ul-
timately find their way to the Redemp-
ton Bureau. 1t is the present custom
of the Treasury to redeem parts of a
legal-tender note for their proportion
ate value.

all these claims. The statute of hmita-

Jpst on the eve of the election in

he tie gift of prophecy? Probably he
is claiTvoYalt. Whatever is the mat
ter with him he is certainly a useful
thing to have around to tell people
what they don't already know. Now
there were his string of predictions
about Church Howe. Of course Eaton
can't hit it every time as he did in the
Vermont matter, and he failed on
Howe nearly every pop. He said Howe
was laid on The SHELF" that the Re
publicans didn't want him, and he
made a picture of himself as he left
the BloOmington:land office, and said
it was Howe travelling over to the
Democrats, and while he was yet down
clawing in the mud to further Illus
trate his wonderful foresight into Ne
maha politics, there was q flash of
lightning rom Nemaha, and looking
upward he saw even Church Howe
about million feet above him stand

a Garfield banner, and in the attitude
of going on up. Then Eaton did rage
and rend his check shirt; for his rep
utat:on as seer was jeopardized But

Inter Ocean: Vermont, in the heav-
lest vote ever polled 10 the State, gives
Republican majority over all oppo-
sition of nearly 10000. The Republi-
can vote is 1928, au increase of IL 900
on the vote of 1873, and an increase of
5000 on the Large vote of 1876. The
Democratic vote is also the largest
ever potled in the State, and shows an
increase of 625 on the vote for Govern
or in 1876. While the ratio of gain in
the Republican ranks is ~ per cent.
the ratio in the Democratic ranks is
about per cent. The Democrats
boosted that they would be able to cut
down the Republican majority to $4,000,
while the Republicans claimed that
their majority would reach $4,000.
In an article on the day of election
the Philadelphia Times said: LESS
than 10000 Republican majority in
Vermont to-day would be fearful
wet blanket to the party, and an III
crease of the Republican majority OF
1915 would be equally chilling to the
Democrats, while the regulation ma
jority of Presidential years would be
drawn battle. The battle of to-day
will be square fight between the two
great parties, and the measure Of ma
ierity will measure the ebb or flow of
the Republican tide on the national
struggle"
