What L. Kepublicanism ::

Ed. JOURNAL: The Omaha Re
publican, in answer to my comments
on his definition of republicanism
says that | refer to what l think
republicsnism will be, whilst he re-
ferred to what it is, that be took the
platforms TOR bis basis, and asks is
the party devoted to that ambiguous
thing, progress then admits that
the party has been known as the
party Of progress and winds up by
saying that kilograms about ss cheap
IS postals and transportation at cost
will not come under republican rule,
for that would be nihilism.
His first definition said "nationsl-
ism, hard moneyism, protectionism,
and the principle of equal rights,
outside of this there is no republi-
csnism."
claim that not only has the party
been known as the party Of progress,
as he admits, not only will ii be the
party of progress as | predict, but
that il is the party of progress, and
does progress, though he cry nihil-
ism, and ambiguity, never so loud.
But he cries, sour platform" Take
any platform without progress and
where would you be-? When the
platform said no extension of slav-
cry, with progress, that embodied
freedom and enfrsnchisement. Can
the Omaha Republican see that had
he then stood up to claim that, out
side of prohibiting slavery in. the
territories there was no republican
ism, he would now be able to see
his own folly? Did we arrive at
sound currency without progress !?
Is not the platform frequently the
expression of the steps already de-
termined as next i'm progress |?
Statesmen realize that when q ques-
tion once fairly comes before our
people they must be ready to grsp-
pie it, for republicanism to day
means progress, and that is no am
biguOus thing to the average repub-
lican. Russia has nationalism, nj
hilism, Mexico hard money, ETC., but
we hope that We are on the road
towards filling the perfect measure
of a government Of mutual interests,
administered by a political party,
liberal enough to progress with the
progressing world, and strong
enough to embOdy some conscience
in its acts, at least occasionally.
After accusing me of confusion
of terms, ETC., he goes on to ask,
Does the republican party embrace
the principles of to-day? as though
| were seeking to limit the party,
instead of he. | do not expect the
party to stand still whilst civil SER
vice reform, prohibition, female
suffrage, cheap transportation, cheap
telegraphy or any other mutual
public interest is settled, but /
think he had better stop and sum up
his definitions; having defined re-
publicanism, he next proceeds to
characterize progress as-ambigui-
ty--cheap transportation as-nihil-
ism. To show the value of such
defining, ] might add to his list thus:
free homesteads, murder; cheap
postage, assassination free schools,
treason; free speech, highway rob-
berry; railroad extortion, as the milk
Of human kindness.
Respectfully,
f.. A. GERHARD.

IT is predicted by one who has
visited the mountain country tri-
butary to the Platte river that
the high waters in May or June in
the Platte river will be unprece-
dented. He believes bat for the
absence of ice In the stream at that
time the probability is that the food
would be far more disastrous than
the late food.

THE rise of last week in the wa
ters of the Missouri river west of
Sioux City, in connection with the
ice gorges, caused fearful destruc-
ton of property. The gorges in
places flooded the bottom from five
to fifteen miles. The town of Green
Island, Neb.. opposite Yaukton was
swept away. The inhabitants could
be seen from Yankton, clinging to
their houses as they hoated off; a
large amount of stock is supposed to
have been drowned. All the bottom
lands were flooded. At the town Of
Vermillion, the water was ten feet
deep in the principal streets. The
Inhabitants took to the bluff back of
the town. Several boats were des-
troyed in the harbor at Ysnkton,
and others damaged by the floating
ice. The town of Madden, opposite
Bismarck, WAS entirely inundated,
but it is believed the citizens all
reached the bluffs in safety, though
their suffering must have been in
tense. There was from four to five
feet Of water and floating ice in the
streets. Railroads and government
warehouses at the levee are consid-
erably damaged. Over two hun
dred head of cattle on the bottom
in the vicinity perished. Great ap-
prehensions were felt for the safe
tyofthetowns below. and it was feared
that Sioux City was in danger of
being deluged by the rising waters.

AN exchange says that the coin
age of nickels has been suspended.
With the recent action of the State
Banks to create panic and to con-
troll the legislation of the country,
presents q time when the Republi-
can party should take a forward
movement on this question and
perfect system under the exclusive
control of the government to rem
edy this defect in the law creating
the state banks by which the people
can have q currency backed by the
credit of the government in the
shape of legal tender greenbacks and
a fractional currency to take the
place of the bank issues. Public
men, and especially political leaders,
are slow in taking forward move
ment on any new question. but this
is q country ruled by the people, and
when they determine to act, leaders
and political parties have to get-out
of ftheir way or fall in line and march
with them. The late action of the
banks has opened the eyes of the
people to the dangerous power the
banks possess in bringing about a
depression in business, and causing
a financial panic. when no occasion
in the business of the country exists
to warrant it. The republicans now
have an opportunity to at once take
their stand on this question, remedy
this defect in the present system, and
give the people q good system Of
currency backed by the government.
which the people will approve.

him that the demurrer would dispose of the
issues IN the case. of course he knew moth
ing about it. He had lot supposed that
there was any lack of accord between the at
torneys representing the same side.
The Attorney General here called tie az
tention Of the Court to the fact that he is
attorney Of record, and had control of the
case. and that the other gentlemen are "of
counsel" He then withdrew the demurrer
to the answer and the melton to strike out.
The Court suggested that it might be well
to give plenty Of time to all to get ready and
place the date of trial two weeks hence.
Dir. Hart said there were plenty of wit
nesses Ia Sacramento county for the pur-
poses OF the trial. and all could be easily had.
Put it off six months and il would be the
same thing. He proposed to try it early, or
dismiss it.
The Court said, there being no appearance
for defendants, he must fix the case, on the
motion Of the People and at the request Of
the Attornev-G General he set tie case down
for trial for Tuesday next
