DRoPPISG OFF-The Nebraska idrertise- pub
lishsd at Auburn, Nemaha County, Nebraska,
has ceased 10 exist, and is succeeded by the Ne
maha Journal. The zdrsr!issr was the oldest
paper in Nebraska, having been started about a
year before the Chief 1t was started by Ex-
Gov. Robert W. Furnas, who used to publish the
Troy (0hi0) Times, and who, in lsJ6, purchased
the Office of the TppeeanOe City Reflector, in the
same County, moved it to Brownville, Nebraska,
and started the AdreTiiser. BrOwnyille then, and
for many years after was one Of the booming
Missouri River towns; but it was so unfortunate
ly situated that, when river srigation died out,
and railroads. were built, it out of the way
of all lines, and gradually commenced going
Down hill, until nov it is . dead town. Some
time during the past year, the IdrutiseT was re-
moved to Calvert, a new town at = crossing Of
railroads, near the centre Of Semaha County.
The name of the town was Afterwards changed
to Auburn. Last week, the -Idreriiser ceased to
exist, aud the Journal sprang up from the ruins.

of the Idreriiser, is still published. II 10 now
the only paper between the Missouri River and
Salt Lake that is older than the Chit. 1t is
within the range of possibility that, within a
few years the Chief will be the oldest paper west
of the Missouri River.
In connection with the IdreTiisc, are re-
minded Of . curions political fact. Kansas,
opened for the admission of slavery, at once be-
came strongly Republican. But Nebraska, where
they had no such trouble, was intensely Demo

cratic and no public man. " whateyer his poIitic,

A KNoTTY PRoBLEN.-The Emporia Se,rs is
wrestling with problem. Ii thinks il very
strange that so many Republican papers in Kan
sas, that went their whole length in supporting
st. John, now, since his defeat, are vigorously
kicking him, and apparently rejoicing over his
downfall. We made few obssrvstions, . long
time ago, that will apply to the solution Of this
puzzle, and did not credit ourself with any
extraordinary acuteness in so dong The editor
of the Ners has been long in Kansas, and 10 Q
sharp observer, and ought TO have been able to
see through this thing. Our observation was to
the effect that very large proportion Of the pa
pers in Kansas were run by men who, like an
equally large proportion Of the small-fry politi-
cians are the infernaest set of suckers, toadies,
cringers, dirt-eaters, and lick -spits, that have
an existence outside Of the dog species They
will fawn upon, and lick the very dust from the
feet of a man in power, or who seems to be up
permOst, and will advocate men and measures
with whom they have uo sympathy, solely from
this disposition to ernge and toady; and these
fellows are the very first to turn upon and kick
the men they formerly pretended to worship, 81
soon az they pass under 3 cloud. An ordinary
bird dog is as competent to run newspaper, and
infinitely more fit to be trusted and relied upon.

Reforming tho Republican Party.

II is about ten years since the superfine NOR
slists, who set themselves up to purify and re-
form the Republican party, began to getin their
work efectually. Tie party had become pow
erful, and certain leading men were becoming
too strong. The worst of it was, they were not
pous. Some of them swore when they got mad;
some of them kept wine on their tables; and
all of them, when they saw a chance to make
point for the party, made it, without regard to
the wishes of the enemies Of the party. All this
needed to be reformed, and there were Cody
men in the party ready to undertake the work.
Ein the great work of purifcstion, Zach Chah-
der, Of Michigan, was set aside, and a true
Christian elected to the Senate in his place. who
has ever since been whooping up s scandal
against young girl young enough to be his
granddaughter, whom he made his wife. Matt.
Carpenter, Of Wisconsin, was retired, and
man chosen, whose name we shall not look up
at present, it may be that Oblivion is pleas
ant to him. Senator Pomeroy, Of Kansas, went
down under conspiracy, and there has been
investigation into corruption at every election
since. Ben. Butler, one Of the ablest men in
America. was acting in good faith with the Re-
publican party. When he believed in a thing,

still Prospecting for Reasons.

IL has been Observed, from time mmemorial,
that man rapidly declining with consumption,
strives to convince himself and his friends that
he has any other disease, however Ioathsome or
fatal, except the one that is actually killing
him. He will admit, and addnce arguments to
prove, that he has scrofula, liver complaint,
diabetes, Bright's disease, infiammatory rheu-
matism-anything in the world but cousump-
tion. This is good deal the condition of the
supporters of the late lanented ST. john They
give reasons plenty rs blsckberries why he was
defeated, but they can not be made to confes.
the real thing that fattened him. They have
said that prejudice against third term did it;
that many Republicans wanted to make his
majority small as possible, Just so that he
shonld he elected, in order to rebnke him, but
that IL they had dreamed that it would have
resulted in the election of Click, they would
have voted for ST. John; and now the Atchison
Champion comes out in an article trying to show
that, had il not been for the woman suffrage
plank in the State platform, ST. John would
have been elected. Now, all this stnff is bosh.
Third term had very little influence on the
suit. Had that been the only objection to st.
John, there would have been no perceptible
years ago. Every Republican who voted against
St. John, did so not to scare him by reducing
his majority, but TO defeat him; and had it
been considered within the bounds of posi-
biliiy to defeat him, thousands who reluctantly
voted for him, or did 50 in order TO be on the
winning side, would have voted against him
with q relish. And woman suffrage cut no mere
figure than third term did. That was still a
remote question, and one with which very few
people bothered themselve. at this stage Of the
question. What beat 81. John, and the only
thing that did it, was the prohibition business.
He was beaten because he was the champion,
the apostle, the embodiment Of the prohibition
question in Kansas. 1t means that prohibition
has not come to stay; that the people do not
aequiesce in the amendment, and the law to
force it; and that it must be wiped out at the
earliest opportunity, and its advocates sent 10
keep company with st. John. This is II thing
that time-serVing politicians NAV as well make
up their minds to. Any person who endeavors
to find any other cause for the result, is either
trying to hnmbug the people, or he deeeives
himself
