ae8. HILLER, EDITOR. WHITE CLOUD, KANSAS: Paulsiay, 3, November 15, 1880. — BRAGS! RAGs! RAGSIT! We will take any quantity of clean cotton of Bees rags, 0 cent per pound, in payment fir w absemption, advertising and job work, save eer rags, and get something for them, insteed of eating them away. No other bint will be suiven that such as aremanned above. Moas Socraean “Coxssavarin.”—' | We have just learned of another instance|| of Pro-Blevery tyranny and fanaticism, || which is but no additional evidence that’ the people are doing a righteous thing in|) |strangling out modern Democracy. A gentleman wall known in this communi ty, having been for three years a promi nent crtisen of White Cloud, = few] months sizes, on account of the critical state of tie wife's health, retorned to his native Gtate of Virginia, in the hope that‘ his wife’s health might be improved un der her father’s roof. While here, he was a Free State man, but never took an active part in politics. Our friend, in order to employ himsslf during his necessary sojourn in Virginia,' assisted his father-in-law, who is Post-' master in one of the leading towns of Virginia. He avoided political discus sions, knowing the excited state of the public mind ; but he was not permitted to rest, being constantly bantered for his political sentiments. He at length ac knowledged that Lincoln was his choice. Public fury was immediately excited against him. A committee of citizens waited upon his father-in-law, and read the law to him, charged him with hav ing an Abolitionist in his employment ; and demanded that he forthwith discharge t him, or they would report him to the President, and have him removed from office. To preserve peace, and allay the excitement, our friend was compelled to quit the office, and go to doing nothing.: As soon as his wife is able to travel, he intends leaving his native State forever, unless compelled to quit sooner, by that invincible Southern argument, tar and], fosthers, Ho is in daily expectation of, receiving orders to travel, from the “law and order” men of the town. Reromicars, Woas !—This is queer advice, is it not, when the election is just over, and another one is = year distant ? ‘For this is the very reason why we give the advice. ‘The progress of Republican principles has been greatly retarded by the neglect of the friends to work until the approach of elections. The very best time to work, is when there is a calm in politics. During nine or ten months of the year, the enemies of Republicanism sow the seeds of falsehood and slander, and the Republicans never take much pains to eradicate them until the two or three months preceding an election, and then it is too late to accomplish the nec esary good. The Democracy never case, their charges of negro equality, Aboli tionism, Know-Nothingism, etc., against the Republican party; and they should be met all the time. Many well-meaning people, who are not in the habit of ex amining into politics, are deceived by these misrepresentations ; and frequently wuch time is necessary to disabuse the public mind of error. ‘The only true method is to work all the time. Whenever you find an honest, well-meaning man, who is willing to lis ten to the truth, explain to him the prin}. = == ciples of Republicanism, compare the An old and respectable citizen of the acta of parties, and expose the slander a| same town, who for a long time held the of the enemy. To render the Republican office of Commissioner of the Revenue, party sucessful, it is only necessary that and was Secretary of the Young Men's tha truth should be known. To account Christian Association, said that, if Lin glish this desirable result, keep every mancola was elected, he would accept the informed upon the principles and seta of office of Postmaster. A committer was perties, and make known facts as they fed upon him, and ordered him to Ieave occur. Let every earnest Republican the State within three days. It is repor make this» portion of his daily duty,| ted that he has loft. eed we will soon have « glorious stop of! These things occurred in the heart of Republican voters, who are ready and the Valley of Virginia, where repose the willing to march up to the polls, without bones of Daniel Morgan, who fought for the everlasting pulling, tugging, coaxing, American freedom! Is this a simple of running and planning which bare to be it ? resorted to upon every election day. 1 Dovotas’ Revaven.—Douglas is bail ly beaten, but he has died game. From the time when he opposed the Lecompton Constitution, the President and Senate have carried on a relentless war against him—humiliating him in the Senate, and doing their share toward defeat ing him for the Presidency. But he has been gloriously revenged. ‘The Presi dent has been buried s0 deep that politi cal resurrection can never reach him ; Jos Lane has been consigned to the shades, and a Republican elected to the Sanate in his place ; Bigler will soon take his lest book into the Senate, as a member there of; Fitch has heard his death-knell in In dian, and the path is left open for Bright to follow him ; Gwin is making his last struggle in California; and Green, of Missouri, feels that big case in critical— Douglas has gone under, but he has hed, the satisfaction of dragging half a dozen of his bitterest enemies down with him. The Expection.—Official returns of the elections in the States have not yet been received. In the Northern States, the result is as announced last week. Lin coln carries every one, except New Jer sey, which goes for fusion. Bell has car ried Kentucky and Tennessee. Breck inridge has probably carried the balance. In Missouri, the result is doubtful be tween Douglas and Bell , and Maryland sui Virginia are close between Bell and Breckinridge. BF We notice that the question of sanating Southern Nebraska to Kansas, is age to being agitated. This time, both, Northern and Southern Nebraska are wil ling, and we can see nothing to prevent the consummation of the echame. For our own part, we were always in favor of an nexation , and if the matter is vigorously pushed while all hands are yet willing, Kecusas will become one of the greatest States in our Confederacy. BF We have received the October sumber of The Printer. We will not say it is more than nenally interesting, for thay could not well be; but we do oxy that it is the best work of the kind, ever attempted, and every printer who dos not take it, neglects his own inter ests.

Nonra-Western Casumiax Avrocare. —We have been favored by this valua ble organ of the Methodist Church in the North-West, with an exchange. It is very ably conducted by Rev. T. M. Eddy, the author of the late scathing letter to Pres ident Buchansa, upon the wrongs of the Methodist Church in the South. We notice that the paper is shortly to be en larged, and issued in quarto form, suita ble for binding. To Methodists desiring to subscribe for an interesting Church pa per, we cheerfully recommend the North+ Western Christian Advocate, “The price is only $1.50 a year,.

Before the election, the Democratic pa pers all published a paragraph to the ef fect that Leonard Swett did give up the state a certain for Douglas. Perhaps they can now enlighten us upon the Swett question.” _—e— _. Ourance Urow Mu. Docatas.— When Sanster Douglas attempted to speak at Montgomery, Alabama, a few days before the election, he was pelted with rotten page! It had been his boast that he could speak his sentiments as freely in the South as in the North, and his friends urged the South to support him, because he had beem the friend of South ern rigate; yet thie ig the treatment he receives in return. When the Democrat ic Senate degraded him, at the commend of the South, he meekly bore it; and in re turn, proposed a gag law for the benefit of the South—now let us see how he will stake this lost outrage. ‘The Presidential contest is over, and he has no further cause for subserviency to the interests of Bravery ; and if theres a tithe of the manliness and courage in his composition which his friends claim for him, he will at once take an honest and bold stand, and make his matlers rue the outrage they have perpetrated. And his follow ers, if they are honest will cat loose from a party with which they affiliate for the sake of the name Democracy, and take a position which they can occupy with honor to themselves, and command their public confidence. ‘There is that one place to which Douglas and his followers can go, with honor, and to which they must go, unless they intend to humili ate themeelves to their insulters, and lick, the hand that smote them—and that place, is in the Republican ranks. £ 9 We this week publish the official abstract of votes polled in Doniphan and Brown Counties. They will be valua ble for future reference. The former was, furnished as by Henry Boder, Esq., and the latter, by David Pesbles, Esq., of Hiawatha. Bar Our South Asrorina Free Boil friend, T. D.

As matter of course, they were “A, No. 1.’ “ Ovrancs at Troy —On Thesday night seat, « number of the candidates and numbers of both political parties, were’ collected at , at their respective quar' ‘era, awaiting the returns from the vari ante ‘of the County. ‘hen it became certain that the Re publican ticket was elected, its friends »recurred « tar barre! and kindled a bon fre on the square. Enraged at this man festation of joy and triumph, a crowd of excited and drunken Democrats issued from their dens, and with drawn pistole and knives, threatened the persons and lives of the Republicans. ‘Tearing to pieces the bonfire, they areamed to roll the burning barrel into the office of Hen ry Boder, County Clerk. Stones were hurled through the windows, and a seri ous difficulty threatened.

Stephens and Cobb—Denials. The New York World's Washington correspondent writes, October 30: STEPEERS STILL FOR DOUGLAS. As usual, Washington had had its een tation today. The report that Stephens of was out Breckink sensed much excitement, which, contin ued until a contradiction by telegraph. ‘THE SCHEME OF DtCxION. Assistant Secretary Clayton denies any complicity with the disunion one He says he never saw Luckey, to the best of his knowledge and belief. Thus explodes, with great noise but little exe cution, the terrible revelatory canard of that gentleman. Secretary Cobb also denies everything imputed to him in the New York papers, touching the disrup tion of the Union. He denounces it as an unmitigated lie, made up of some ca sual remark of his to the that there would be trouble in the South if Lin coln should anee sed. 7 Lexmorem, Ky., Nov. 12.
