The Omaha ilcralti and JitpuUlctn
tiro cn Ie:ivoriri! to foresta! public opin
io i on the constitution question by trying
to belitt'e the speakers ami the meetings
in fivor of its adoption. If this is all
the argument they havt, they wt,u!d do
well to cea-c their noise.
Ths editor of the Omaha Herald
-dus a written request, which is pub
lished, asking lie v. Do la Matyr to
preach a political sermon on the Sabbath,
in opposition to the now constitution.
Ti'ue was when Dr Miller claimed to bo
opposed to preaching politics. It does
make a difference whose ox is gored,
vcrilv.
The Omaha papers, except the Jive,
endeavor to ridicule the meetings held
in that city in favor ot th j new constitu
tion, 'l'li'-ir efforts to ri liculo such men
as Chief Justice Mason, Jud.ce Lake,
Ju l.,ro Sr i-.'ue, (Jen. Stri -klaud and
Jii l.o Wakcly are tlie best evidence in
the world that they have no argument to
uso a.ca'nst tliem.
KAI.IVi: LANDS.
A private letter from Acting Governor
James informs us that he has employed
"able counsel, both at Lincoln an 1 Wash
ington, to look after the State's interest
in Valine Land-, and he is assured that
'none of our landed property will be lost.
We hope this will turn out to be true, it
would he a sad affair to let our lands be
''cobbled up" by a set of swindlers.
IVrmont Trihnne.
The llt.UAl.D rejoices to know that its
efforts have at last caused his acting Ex
cellency to take hold of this mat tor. lie
is a careful reader of the IIku.M.K, and

tlas now been before the people long
enough for every man to have rcaiit
and to have considered its leading fea
ture. Th. better it is unJerstood the
luort! heartily it is endorsed, and even
now a very large proportion of the peo
ple of the State may be reasonably set
down as favorable to it. A few of the
politicians of Omaha are opposing it,
a d thej- make some noi.-c about it ; but
outside of that political sodom the voice
of the people rises up iu its favor. It
should not .be expect --.1 that Omaha
would see the aceptre of power depart
from her grasp without a desperate
struggle. She fought manfully to pre
vent an apportionment, years ago, that
seriously crippled her power, and then
again when the Capital was removed
she male a desperate struggle. Hut it
is of no use to '"kick against the pricks ;"
the ptoplo arc the source of all power,
and they will adopt the constiution by m
overwhelming majority.

The Omaha Tribune is guilty of wil
fully misleading its readers in the com
parison of expenses for State officers
mi ler the old and new Constitution. Iu
all discussions of this charatcr the peo
ple expect honest exhibits, and where a
journal purposely suppresses the facts to
make its argument appear reasonable,
it may expect, as it certainly v.' ill receive
the condemnation of its readers. It is
only too-well known that the salaries of
our present State officers were intention
ally mail-' very low, so that the people
might not object to rh uigiog their Ten

now constitution. We cannot beli'-ve
that the Tii'.inic'is ignorant of that fact.
The qucrry why it docs so, will peihaps
receive a solution at the bauds of the
people, wl.it h will i.ot be flattering to
that "organ." If the newspapers rre
to throw light on subjects of interest to
the mass- let them act fairly if they de
sire to retain their prestige. If they
are willjng to make their reputations un
der the glass of misrepresentation soph
istry and abjectly lower themselves to
pettifogging, thou let them be judged
by the people. Wc have full confidence
to believe that the high character of
the gentlemen composing the convention
which framed the new constitution en
titles that instrument to a favorable re
ception by the masses. It may have
?ouic objectionable sections ; but as a
whole, we believe it infinitely better than
the old. .
CONNTl 1 1 no A J. ITEWS.
The Nebraska City Chronicle h:s the
following items on the new Constitution:
I'r. Miller of the Omaha Jit raid has
obandoned all hope of being the favored
candidate for Governor under the new
Constitution, and oppose the ratifica
tion of i he instrument.
A few indiviouals oppose the new
Constitution because they desire to pun-i-h
some enemies who had something to
do with framing the new instrument.
A public meeting will be held in the
city sometime during the week to discuss
the ne-v constitution. iJoth sides of
the question will be ably managed.
Railroad men we believe are oppo. ed
to the new constitution idea of regulat
ing tariff-. It is a question whether
the people or capital shall rule the State.
Capital should be carefully protected,
but not at the expense of the tax-payers.
It s liffieult to determine just where
capital shall let go ami the people take
hold, but the nutter can be adjusted by
the Legislature.
It has been ascertained by di.sctis.-ion
that the old constitution does not ex
empt church or any other property from
taxation, but the new document exempts
J ".0OO church property.
Rev. Pr. Withington once gave a
charge to a chu-ch in about the follow
ing words: 'T charge you to treat your
minister as he deserves ; and if you treat
iiiai as he deserves he will dc.-crve to be
treated as; you treat him."
VOL. 7.
We have often heard of men trying
to carry water on bot't shoulder.-, but
never saw a more practical illustration
of the matter than at Omaha last week,
lledick clai.nel that teupcrance men
would vote down the constitution be
cause the inhibition article was not
placed in the body of the document,-
end that the " whisky chaps" (as he
termed them) would vote it down be
cause there was anything said about
inhibition at all.
Tin; ui.m of AitGii:.r.
The Omaha JltluLlican, in attempt
ing a compaiison of the salaries of the
officers of other States and'those under
our proposed constitution, is guilty,
and proven so, of th? grossest misrepre
sentation. or the most inexcusable gnor
ance. It set down the salaiies of the
Judges in Illinois at $1. (;.) and $1.1000
when they are $-,x)0 and $4,000 in
stead. What kind of fiirness is there
iu this way of doing ? There is no bet
ter exntuent oa th j good qualities if the
proposed constitution Uiuu the muter
fuge and misrepresentation which its
enemies arc compelled to resort to.
AMEMttii.Vl.S.
It seems to us that the single title of
amendments is sufficient to insure the
adoption of the new constitution.
Should the uew constitution be adopted,
the people can amend any objectionable
features it maj- contain, inside of two
years, without a single dollar of expense;
while if the new con-tit ution is voted
dosvn, it will take at least five years
time and filn.'Kr) expense to get another
cons.litution before the people. And
then there is tio certainty that it wiii
give any better satisfaction than the one
now prc.-entcd. Adopt the constitution
and then amend its objectionable fea
tures. TIIK ESStS 1 AUINiJ.
The Omaha papers continue to bawl
about the enormous expense of taking
the census if the new Constitution is
adopted, notwithstanding the falaey of
such talk was completely exposed by
Chief Justice Mason in his recent speech
in that city, lie showed how the census
was taken each year for nine yars while
we were a territory, without a dollars ex
pense, except for the blanks. The
same can be done again. It can be made
a part of the duty of the assessor to take
the census as it was in former days, and
thus all expense will be cut off .except
fir the extra blinks, amounting to pro
bably two or three bun lied dollars.
Where, now, is the great bugbear of the
census. In just this way vanishes near
ly every argii'uetit attempted by these
Omaha men v. ho hare a more vital lea
son for opposing the census and the
constitution, but one which they do not
care to make public. It is a fact worthy
of nete that Ouiahi generally opposes
everything which is calculated to give
new apportionment for representatives.

The following is a copy of the resolu
tions passed by the M. K. Church con
ference, wherein they asked that the
new con-titution provide for the tjxation
of church property :
" AVs !ved, 1. That we are opposed
to any and all Irgi-latioii f r or against
the use of the biblj iu publio schools of
the State.
That we are in favor of the equal
taxation of all property other than State,
County and Munieipal possessions.
"3. That w - urtre the members of
the Constitutional Convention, called by
the Legi-latino of this State to meet in
June next, to se.-ute the above provis

To the E.l;tr..f the llen.U;
In the Herald of the 20th inst. I am
''surprised" beyond measure to see a
letter from Kev. G. le La Matyr in
which ihe deliberate action of the Ne
braska Annual Conference is character
ized as a "suicidal absurdity." The
question was fully discussed, "pro and con,
and after the discussion, in which all had
an opportunity of joining, the vote was
taken appointing a committee to present
the sense of the Conference to the Con
vention. This committee, I am in
formed, diil not take the responsibility of
neglecting to perform this duty ; if it
did, however, 1 am unabie to see how
that neglect could abrogate the action of
the L onleren-.-e.
Again, when this question was on ler
discussion Uisliop Ames expressed lain
self decidedly favoraMe to its pa-sage in
tins language : lwi Uct nudist Church
is loyal ; its members are not nauDcrs :
they can pay their taxes," and thus be
came a party to what is termed a "suici
dal absurdity." I do not believe in
the practice of pledging nine-tenths
or any other faction of a religious bodj'
for or against any political measuie,
much less do I believe it tossible for any
minister of our church mo control the
votes of any considerable portion of its
members. I hope the time is far in the
future when they can be dictated to how
or for whom they shall vote.
Tle Methodist Kpiscopal Church cf
Nebraska is incorporated by act of Leg
islature, and even dollar of its property
is taxable under our present Constitu
tion, while there is, under this, an cx
tmpttcn of $i,(NH. Which is prefei
able then, leaving all passion out of the
question, the new or the old? I have
heard in tnurmar. of complaint from
Methodists in civ observation concern
ing this matter. I exceedingly regret
that I am called upon to defend out
upon
Conference from an attack upon its ac
tion made by one of its most valued
members through the public prints of

OUR FILLMORE LETTER
Fillmore, August i3, 1S71.
Dear Herald : Prospects bid fair
for our having "a straight run' from
and to Plattsmouth henceforth all that
is lacking is cne more hitch-ahead of the
IiUi,ir,u's from Dorchester to Fillmore
Centre if said centre C3n be fouu and
persuaded to settle west of "Woodard's
turn out," near the railroad. Another
and an extra effort is to be made Satur
day, August 2Gih, to locate our county
seat on the line of the I. & M., and
make it a railroad town. At the elec
tion the 1'lst of last April, every man
voted to have the county seat on his
owu land, except lour; these four voted
to locate it on section So, T. 7, II. 2 west.
Section 30 getting more votes than any
other place, it got the "seat of the coun
ty," which is according to parliamentary
rules, alias liJJ'jile.'' These four men
have learned that their influence is net
suilie;ent, and that their troicser jo tl.i t
are not long enough to run so ponderous
a machine as "oo- county," and so they
j'ut played out, or resigned to the peo
ple, which thing shows the dawning of
better da3's in old Fillmore.
Your correspondent often gets his
"back up" at the way "things wag" in
this county, and were it not lor the com
ments of our friend, the IIeraid, we
should, we fear, be led to say some very
simple things, and give the readers of
the Herald reason to believe we have a
fit of the "dumps." As it is we hope
to be guided hereafter by experience
not of that Omaha chap, but our own
and adorn our communications A'ith con
sistency, which is a jewel wherever
found. ,
As newspapers are ever anxious to get
everything new, we pass you J. Y. K.

We arc not all educated in the same
school, and ' can't" all be expected to
think or act alike. Hut if Fillumrc
county gives me the degree of A. 31., I in
tend to start a law school near Prairie
Dog town, next spring. The last time
our fellow man was seen, was la.-t week,
up School creek, with his coat tail pock
et full of law cards, filling Fillmore sig
natures to Saline county gin mill licenses,
for the i-ma'l sum of $'2.U') for three
months, and $1') oo fees, -and as there is
a large number of mills up School creek,
and so on west, we expect our legal ad
viser has a goo 1 excuse for being heavy
in the hat and light iu stamps.
Gen. Patrick, of Lincoln, has ju-t fin
ished laying cut a town on the northeast
quarter of section two, town seven,
range five west. This is the point where
the 15. & M. cros cs school creek, and is
the n.ost delightful place for a town site
we have seen this side of Plattsmouth
almost just another such a place as
Ashland, only a great deal more so
more timber, moie bottom 1 nd, more
that is Lcatiful, yeas, almost cuchauting
not so much water as people ; more
poor so 1 corn juice, and more huts with
babies in them. Poor Pat and Hans
find a safe deposit for all the "green
Lax" your Fitz. pays them. Uy the
way, Fitz. turned the "bung hole"
down la.-t week and a lot of said "sod
corn" fell onto the. ground. Dully for
Fitz! Also, one very still night tin;
wind (?) blew one of those giu mills
kiting over the praiiies and in the morn
ing the little boys and gills were out
early gathering dimes at ten cents each.
Clay county people are talking of or
ganizing in October, when the sale of
liquors will dry up if the people are true
to their own interests.
Three or four of our county chaps
have just returned from a Ballalo hunt.
They report Durham bulls, full blood,
two years old, worth $o0.00, or $2" 00 a
shot at them at least Capt. Spaulding
decided that they should n ay th.3 plain
tiff $50.00 after he had listened to the
testimony of both parties. Dear hunt,
that I but we suppose a good imported
animal makes better beef than one of
our prairie rangers. The worst of it was
salt did not serve that end and our hun
ters returned with the goos bird much
depressed in altitude.
I We saw "Prairie Bill" yesterday, ten
days from I'enver City
He says he did
not sec any red on th; trip down ex
cept the Om .has, with whom he staid
over night and got "gnf1" for the bal
ance of the journey, lie reports alt
quiet-along the Republican, and swears
that there is more Indians in Omaha,
Plattsmouth and Lincoln, than at any
uher place this side of Denver, south of
the Piatte. He also said that the Indi
ans would be quiet now if it were not
for a few renegade whites who are con
stantly urging them on to commit tluir
deeds of blood. "Prairie Dill'' is an
old mountain trapper and scout and is
very weH posted in regard to ".Mr. Lo."
lie came through alone; reports the
country settling very fast around Napo
leon, Waterloo and lied ('loud, lie
sajsthe great want of the Republican
country is a few good mills, stores and
black smiths, and a regular mail. Pill
said he had fought "Reds," trapped
beavers &c, just long enough, and that
he was bound east f j- a "duck," with
' which he intended to finish the improve
ments on his homestead and setile for
life. Long life to "Prairie Bill." the
brave and the true.

Crete, Sept 1, 1S71.
Friend IIatiia wat : Confouud your
Hoe's one horse press ; it has a terribly
rapacious maw ; it devours my time and
talents, (it would stanc on the latter).
No matter how Macduff lays on it don't
seem to "hold enough" worth a cent. I
always tho't you " 'fellers ' and ministers
had immensesoft thing. Just giveyoua
pair of shenrs (sheep) and there would be
one ably edited journal in the State ; but
"by jingo " thcuzh once a week grind
ing out matter, "purily original,'' is not
so "easy as falling off a log " unless you
are out of logs, and then it is ju-t as
easy.
I see no other way to get along, ex
cept I curtail my "bobtail thunder."
The Deputy says it would seem an inflic
tion, but he don't know, Hathaway, and
he is eternally getting one of his big feet I
in everything except shoes (got him
there) as there are no hills hre to last
them over, and the wea her has been so
wet the rhoeuiaker couldn't work out of
doors.
I isited School Creek the other day.
Left here at 12 o'clock at night on the
L. tV 31., and returned in the morning.
I was actually astonished at the condi
tion of the road, there having been
some heavy rains just before, yet one
could scarcely distinguish the difference
between it and the older track, cast of
us. It seems to be well bala5 ted, and the
grade firm. The country through which
the road passes is almost all susceptible
of cultivation, being neither too rough
nor too smooth, but just right ; and all
along could ba seen the houses of set
tlers, planked with good hoards, and
stacks of grain ; and School Creek, al
though net many houses there now, yet
it will be the town between here and
Kearney. It is finely located, having
both timber and water. The town is
already platted, and residents are look
ing forward to its speedy growth, and
they will not be disappointed. "We
found upon arrival that Charlie Cooper
had the start he already being the II.
R. Agent at that point. The road is
now far beyond. The work is being put
through with speed, and well done when
it is done, it is ready for trains as soon
as laid, and no danger to freight or pas
sengers. Its officers are thorough work
ers, as well as careful. . The 15. oc M. is
a complete success, and pays. Its long,
continuous line, its perfect connections,
make it popular while its innumerable
and fertile acres make it ' healthy" on
a real estate basi-.
Nothing of interest transpired on the
way unless you 'call a "reckless" reaching
into your lunch basket, interesting.
Morse is a good conductor, and "Ncal"
huge on baggage ; but if they can't
make a healthy lunch sick between here
and School Creek, I-am mi-taken How
ever, if they "go for your grub" they
make it good by attending to your com
fort. Luck go with them. The fragile
Bishop was not with us, or perhaps I
would have to record his demisj fVon:
too good "vittles." Neither was the fa
mous brakesman on hand ; so enough
for this time.
1 also have vi.-itcd along ll.e Midland
Pacific ; business called me. and 1
obeyed with alacrity, but didn't get there
with so much alacrity, by no means, not
so much. They have a healthy infant,
in the brake lino, on that road. I
watched that feller ; he was enjoying
himself in the passenger c.sr, reading
"Dare Devil Dick, or the Fearless Rider."
All at once he arose, surveyed himself,
leisurely, straightened out his shirt col
lar and breeches', and went for that
brake. History may record the avidit3'
with which he seized it, the whirls he
gave it, and the twists he gave himself ;
history ma- record that his coat tail was
at right angles with his sitting down de
partment, and how the peanut boy put
a coupling link on his coat and couldn't
faze the tail of it ; and how a certain
feller came back when Brakey had
stopped us and that feller looked like a
marking pot and how that M. P. com
menced with a verbal skirmish, every
word of which would ihyme into psalm,
(uot Chapman), and how we were edi
fied with the following conversation, be
tween 31. P. and Brakey :
M. P. Look here, Brakey, you infer
nal, bandy-legged, knock kneed, cat
hammered, shingle bellied, cock-eyed
villain, what did you stop the train for?
Brakey. I thought you whistled.
M. P. Confound you, I did whistle,
"The dead march iu Saul," twasn't the
engine.
History may record what Brakey said,
I won't.
I asked the conductor what train it
was: he said it was the accommodation
train. You could get off and on and
he would not have to stop. I told him
he had better get a corpse and it w uld
bo a first-class funeral procession. Said
he, if you don't keep still I'll furnish
the corpse. I kept -still funerals are so
expensive, and good mourning goods
puite dear.
I will close by rending the following,
being a letter written to our old friend,
Harry Robertson, twenty years ago. It
came from "Auld Reekie :"

There's a mountain there, a Sawyer Ne

It is proposed in fashionable circles
at the East that every young man shall
adopt the rule of shaving his crown,
something after the fashion of the ec
clesiastical tonsure. It is found that
mot men enjoy the advantages of this

The Attorney General has given his
opinion when the lowest bid for a con
tract is informal it should be awarded to
the next lowest bidder. This occasions
much surpri.-e here among government
oflieors, who dec'are that not one bid in
ten is strictly formal, and according to
the Attemey General's decision, the gov
ernment must award to the lowest formal
bidder, or re-advertise, which is attended
with much expense. The practice has
been to waive informality on the lowest
bid if the bidder wa willing to adhere
to the bid ami enter into the contract.

The los to the government under this
decision is estimated annually at a mil
