We call Bttention to Special Election
notice, in regard to voting bonds for the
Ft. Louis and Nebrss-ka Trunk Railroad,
which appears in this isae. The copy

we did not expect to get the proposition

Prom every quarter we are asked why
the IIcrai.t docs not tay something
about raihoad bonds?
Y; have stated to these parties very
frankly the reasons why the liERAI.D
has not, hitiu-rlu, opeti i it head about
the H called Tiunk Uailroa 1 I. nd-, uud
w n iw do .o in j.ublie rint. Fir.-f and
foremost, our advice and eo-operation
has not been asked by any of the high
contracting, parties that may be supposed
towMnr a railroad through C- a county ;
that i.s t.) say, by either an ajrent of the
proposed raiirond, company, nor by the
County CoiuitiisMoticr., nor by the citi
ztns who Fcexu to be tHki'ig an active
put in the matter, and under these c'r-
cuiutaiiee.s we did not feel like putting
oar oar in too abruptly. A gain, we are
iiio.-t abominably apt to tell the truth
for an K litor and if we we ctj ay j'tst
what we think on this question we s nuld
make some iui-u in I'lattsmouth malder
than a wet h-n, and on the other side
lay urelves liabln to j;et a head put on
us by the gentlemanly farmers of the
southwestern ard western precincts, tu
say nothing of Rock B'ufTs, tt at.
Lastly, wc have heaid i teuch talk in
thi State on rai'roa 1 bends, north, east.
outh and west, and we have hard so
many little peevish, selfih, useless jnal
ons, nartowminded nnd contentptible
reasons urged for or u;;tin-t their pas-.-afifl,
that having a tcusper somet; ing
similar to our'friend Jack lloibacb, we
feel .strongly tempted to shout take
y.ur bo mis, and tro to lil!ylick with
tl em only don't bo! her us any more
about tha matter. In short, we never
conceived a higher, more exalted idfa of
the immense patience and forbearance of
the GREAT llCLKR, than after listening
to a promiscous discission on the pro
priety or necessity of voting raihoad
bonds. It always struck us tint if the
Scpremk Good cou hi stand this and not
swrep the little worms frwm his path l"r
their stupidity an! eh irt-ihtednes.
there wa- a pretty good chauee fur al
most anybody to jiet in right and straight
at the Ja-t day.
We said oar opinion had not been
a-ked"by the hhih. contractors." It h i-.

politically. Warmouth has the returns,

Pennsylvania is in a bad a fix, except
that the elements of person! violence
are not threatened so strongly. If ih
exchanges are to be believed, at a'!. Gen.
Simon Cameron went to foitnl of the

It is n-TV war to the knife and knife to

Editor. IH.rald: ,SVr. -I "expect
the time of luy ;ubscritioti has expired,
and I have been well pleased with your
paper, although we differ in political
matters; still, you seem to be an honest
man, and that is the main thing, let a
man belong to what larty he wiil I
have admired your ft le of handling
Miller, of the Omaha llemU, very
much, for as you say, he has damaged
3'our State, abroad, to a great extetit.
It can easily be ieeii in ibis community ;
for Nebraska has a ood many warm
fiiends here in fact we all have friends
or relatives in your State, and if they
are what he represents them to be. they
have changed gre itly fcir.ee thev left her.
1 was a citlz-n of your State for over
two years, and spent a great deal of the
lime in your city, an 1 must say I thought
you wenf a very good and honest people,
and am surprised to bear that you are
becoming so corrupt and dishonest. In
this campaign I have nothing to say, for
I ru too much of a Democrat to sup
port Grant, and would rather take a dose
of blue tu i, than swallow Greeley;
but enough of this. Eastern Iowa has
been blessed with very good crops of all
kinds. No more at present, but as ever,
am - Yours, truly,
Mf.uritt S. Rcssell.
We publish the above although l.te
in the day ; and it would not have been
published at all, but for the fact that the
Omaha Herald is keeping -up the same
injurious and cau-eless cry, since the re
turn of its sore-headed senior editor.
It only remains for us to say, that we do
not know the writer of this letter, never
heard of hitu before only a.s we send
biui a Herald through the mail He
wiitesgood sense, though, and our peo
ple will do well to ponler on this fact.-
How long cau Nebraska stand it to be
abused by her own Pr ss and her own
people bee iue of a diff'renca on politics?
