It will be seen by reference to the pro
ceedings ;cf out Legislature" t;hat it i
contemplated to provide for the nomina
tion and election of two Congressmen at
the next general election. Tbir a matter
of great importance to the people of Ne-
braska..aud.rit 4 littb enrviity is ex
hibited by many ot her ci:;.en-, as to
whether or not Congre.s wiD. admit Ujih.
' The reasons' for .this , action arc to b
fjund in the fact. that the vote at thi
Presidential election in the fall of lSf.
demonstrated that we" had at thfit'timi
li."),0(.'0 inhabitants,' ' and it is r;!aimeil
that, up to lastfiTl. the population of thi
State had increase J fifty per ceaL-r-many
counties actually doubling their eeuaiera
tion.., ThU waldhjce tlie population
oft::.; t-ntiro S::tc h-t fill .at 17,0)
! people, and it is claimed that the increasq
by 'next fall will be doubled, but rP.bwin
the saaie ratio of increase, u will havij
"-j --r,c NW. it is ltndmstood thai
fV - jntds to place the munbor of
its numbers at three hundred,- which di,
vided into U.O.W.OOrt, the- probable rc-J
suit oftbr; next census, will ruii nearly
,,ift!H, :r,i;1uiranU flir one member 'ot
'Congress,
K, ,
I i-3'- tO Iw
in which case we will be ehti
two members. But allowing that
the estimates made upon the increase of
our population are too liberal, and claim-i
ing that thc increase has been only at
theTatc of 25 per ceDt., we v.-cald hav-4
last fad 15!,2o0, aud next fall -,Zi
which would give us oae member and
nearly 02,000 inhabitants over the re
quisite number,whicli fraction, lr the
limo Congress .' will nelv "wtfi Id, be iii
creastid to',7U,W0, over !jn?-lialf tho re-,
quisitc number required for the repie en
tation. C'onrrese, therefore, will not do
bar this ieople from representation,
when it bcoomes known how rapid is the
increase of her population. In 187S our
popv.laticr. at thc same rate of increase,
would reach a littde ow .1, 000,000 1 but
it is fur to presume that it will at least.,
at the lowest possible statement, pain 10
per cent, which will thow a population
for Nebraska, in 1S78, of 418,663, which
would ' equal tho , number necessary' to
obtain three Congressmen and a fraction '
over. In view of theso facts, therefore,
it is presumed that the vast amount of
work already "developed on our Repre
sentative, increased by all that ensuing
from the increae6f population, and the
constant demand for new post routes,
and aa the other multipliety of business
conseque.it upou the opening cf a now
country, will net be thrust upon the
shoulder of - one ' Rmretaifritivs but
that Congress, aeting with a view to the
protection of our people, and for the
rroat est rood of the. crcr.te.'t number.

This subject came before tho Senate
j-esterday in a ditt'erant shape from thft
I-roposition introduced m thc House and
n jeered on the day before. It proposes
the appointment of a joint committee
of two from the Senate and three from
the House, with powers to aend for
persons and papers ard to report during,
the present Session ; It docs not possess
objectionable features of the Houo
resolution in that it proposes to do the
business immediately and to report to
the body creating, it and not to some
future legislature. It elicited a lengthy
debate and was advocated warmly by a
majority of the Senate, as being the only
method of doing justice to all parties con
corned. It was opjKtsed by Messrs.
Taylor, Fiost, .Ash ton and ( teret on the
grounds that no sfciSe charges had been
made against tho Commissioner? ml that
the state of affairs at' Lincoln doe':npt
appear to warrant the, ,iponse of con
tnrjing the" session tiHtil such time as
the proiMi-scd Committee can perfect their
report urn all the transactions of tho
several sales and contracts made by the
ofiieiuls.
Thc above from tlie Daily State JW
nd is a frank expression of sentiments.
We believe it i infinitely bettor to lot
the invebtigation co on. In fact we be
lieve the Commissioners desirc.it to be
pushed forward. If they are guilty 1ft
theui sujjtr. If innocent, it will heap
coals of lire on. the nialiners.,jLct us
have light, and let us have peace.

When tho matter of the investigation
of the action of the Board of Cuminis
sioncv of Jd.lle 1'gilMipgs Si.c. was first
m X)t6j, belicring, as I yt believe',' ih it
the best, and loateual iaterests of the
Stat a would . not be promoted thereby,,
.suchiriVestigatiun met with my euruest
op'po-dtion. ' ; , ' ".
' .1 filt that the call wa:--ab!gw alme.3 at
me, not only in my official eharaeie;, but
as a man ani a citizen.
Emanating from a personal opponent,
ba-ed upon floating and uncertain .'ru
mor.', its inception founded ' upon, a 'de
sire to 'insult and debase uuS by giving
prominence art 1 ' substantiality to tiie i
vcriet gossip: it ' was not a matter of i
surprise, tnat,' smarting under the base
attack, I should rapid it. " '
I felt that the mere call, therefore, was
insulting in the extreme, and I rejoiced
whon the House of Representatives
.placed its condemnation' upon it.
Now, however, from fair and unbiased
men comes- another and further' call for
investigation and 'while 1 fear that tho
best interests of the State may .suffer by
the delay in their progress incident to
such action: yet that this reproach upon
tho Commissioners, the chief officers of
the State, and--tile foul stain upon th-j
Commonwealth may be 'removed, I now
ask that the invetii.'4tkn,' fair, full ami
anij!o, maj' proceed1 as speediiy as prac
ticable, that the advancement' ot the
public buildings and the pe cuniary inte
restsof tho Stfc may; not suffer. f'
I earnestly U-inJ that her hdwir may
be savel, and that from her escutcheon
may be wied th breath of the chaivo
of shamefnl oortaintion and dishonesty at
the hands of- hw-official. . .
Thht in thd disposition of the pubhV
lands of thiv State, and in the erect ion of
public edil eis,' the Commission has ex
ceeded the power granted to it under thj
law, it does not deny. .i.,:
It stands ready: to show at tlie proper
time, that in assuming this ever danger-
0 is responsibility, 'tf.-r etuergency re
emirrd ic.-an t tin l.-ost. interests of' the
tit wevo a Ivarood by it.
in every act whether authorized orun-aurlnrized,-
the' Comt.iisMoneis bad an
eye snnsrio't-Xh public good, and I li ;n
estly and sincerely .befiev?, i hat for it to
have taken ot her action than it Hid,
woi.-ii hare called down and jiidiiied the
c-cnnr of -tho peophl
' I ak that und"t all the e.irm instances
a full liearing may be given by tho com
mitto soon. I h?po,: to be appeintod by
