We call attention to the advertise ment of the opening of DO AXE COLLEGE at Crete, to be found in another column. Eddy Kirkpatrick came in here the other day, just after harvest, looking as brown and Grang?ry as anybodys' farmers boy any where. Called. Moses Stocking, an old resident of Cass county and One of the largest Sheep raisers in the West, besides be ing a mighty fine man himself. The Common Council met and vr;islled with the new teacher question. Miss Gertie Johnson is the only teach eress of the old set that has been re flected. We understand that Prof. Wise made the recommendations on which they were elected. of the Southern section of the State demands an in crease Vf mail facilities. Our dele gates in Cwgres together with the Ch'itt Head Clerk rjf thail service, Paul Vandewort, have asked that the 13. & M. R. H. It. bo made n Festal Route. This fold supples Wl to about two thirds of the entire State. The amount of Mali matter on this road is increasing with the wonderful growth of the country, and already the agents in charge of the mail, are over worked, each doing the labor of two men. Asa matter of public- interest and justice to the-'people of Southern and Western Xebraska,we add our earn est petition to the request of our delegates In Congress, and trust the authorities at Washington will give Us the relief we ask. ELECTION OF TEACHERS PLATTSXOUTJI. IN The sapient Common Council of our enlightened town, saw fit to make an almost clean sweep of our teachers last Saturday. "While about it, we would have raked the board and clean ed the coop. One poor women left, can't leaven all the lot. No reasons or excuses yet offered to the Herald, has satisfied us that this action was wise or just to the old teachers, who had stood by the Council and school board, in days of trouble, and who are now without note or warning left out in the hot and burning summer season, to hunt for another place at this late day, and with the implied stigma upon them, that they are in competent to teach here. We have not time to treat this matter fully now. and it's too hot to get mad, at anything; but the IIeuAld in common with many of our best citizens, feels hurt at this action of sotnebody. The Council try to lay the blame on Prof. Wise, and the Prof.- well he says nothing. We have stood by the Prof, heretofore, through thick and thin but we must hear better reasons, for such a wholesale slaughter of the innocents, than we have yet heard, be fore being convinced that such a change was necessary. Change is not reform, and this town has had enough of new teachers with long and power ful recommendations. One months' personal knowledge, is worth all the sheepskin flatteries in the United.

First jump from the score, eleven feet Distance to the house, kK iU?. Time two minutes In the course of a ride or two over the country lately, the Herald man has had 'speered" at him innumerable questions about the new bridges being built by the Commissioners in this county. ... . Jn order "to gratify this somewhat reasonable curiosity the Herald has interviwed the -said County Commis sioners, 7md herewith presents to its readers a 'short synopsis of the reasons for the maunerrjit which it has been been superintended and of the work donei Hitherto all bridges have been built by contract, and in many cases the work was very unsatisfactory. It may be said that when plain specifica tions are drawn up there can be no chance for the contractor to comply with them. The fact remains that the bridges were badly built, the ap proaches often useless, and that no other fund in tho county yielded so little real value, or gave so little sat isfaction to the people as the bridge fund. Again people will grumble about their bridges and almost every man is sure to think that the bridge by his door is the most important one and that bridge over by his neighbor might be dispensed with. In order to reconcile all these differences and in the endeavor to do justice to all the county the present board personally inspected the claims of .all applications for bridges and examined the whole bridge field of Cass county, in order to determine on some posible, definite and systematic plan of bridging the county that would not be altogether too expensive. In pursuance of this plan, they con tracted for lumber by the car-load, direct from Chicago, also for white oak posts or piles of the very best material, thus saving the county ex lenses iu the end, as bridges have here tofore been built singly, after every conceivable plan. They next made a careful examination of various plans of county bridges submitted for their examination, and after due selection, decided to inspect the building of these bridges themselves, because, if thero was any "cussing" to le done after wards thev wanted to know just who deserved the "cussing." As the Com missioners are bound to .get "cusssed" any way if the thing don't pan out right, why they have simply put them selves before the people as the only responsible parties, and must bear the burden, as there will be no handy con contractor to shift the blame off on, and we confess the Herald rather likes the plan. If we've got any heavy growling to do over these bridges now, we know just where to go, and if they don't prove to be what the Commis sioners have represented them, we know who to "go for." The next thing was where to put your bridge, all sides and ends and some iu the middle of the county were clamorous for bridges. We guess they must have nossed tip" for this, because at first glance they all seemed to need bridges at once equally bad. The West rather" gSiried the day this season, that's the fact ftnd they say for these" reasons.- Their streams are deepand nruddy.it is impossible to cross them iHhkmt bridges the grain crop of the West bid fair (then) to be large and it fnust and ought tsbaVe a handy j outlet to market agaJrt the travel through the county Westward by emi grants demanded a good road, for they tlre sure to see defects and find fault With a country when the bridges are poor, no matter how many advantages it may have, and we dont want theVn "cussing Cass county all the way to Denver and back, nor carrying tales of our shiftlessness back east to their cousins and uncles. In the Southern and South-western part of the county, the streams are fordable in many places and they have stone and timber handy so that it is possible, at least, for them to build good fair temporary .crossings,, and get along for one season more. Yet it is a fact that every precinct in the county has a bridge under way. and we ale assured by the Commissioners that If the Southern part of the count' will wait With a little patience, they shall have a fair chance next year. That's all about this part of the business. The Work done. About 50 bridges are Under Weigh, they Average 45 feet in length and the cost ayet cannot be determined. When the work for the season is com pleted, a complete record of each bridge ; its length, approaches, the amount of lumber and other material and the cost will be made out and published so that he who runs may read and know just what has been done. WHERE THEY ARE. We give a partial list from memo randa at hand, of. the most important bridges in progress or built. Over Rock Creek at Rrock Bluffs, CO ft. bridge ; near telegraph road, 40 ft. across 4 mile creek, near Vallery's farm, Callahan creek, near McKinnon's GO ft.; just above this an 80 ft. bridge, and two others CO ft, still above this on this creek. On Cedar Creek, near Livingston's Ranch CO ft; at Childs place (Glendale) CO ft; and at Ozen copps a CO ft. bridge. In Louisville on Range Line and at Barnes place CO ft. bridges. On Weeping water, at IIoll enbecks, GO ft ; North of Lanes, 80 ft, South of Lane's 60 ft. One at Clapp's 50 ft; at Dave McCaig's CO ft.; at Wm. McCoys GO ft; at Henry Clapp's 4 ft. At Centre Valley, across South Ce dar, CO ft.; at Johnsons and ten miles East of W. W. 40 ft. At Carper's GO ft. bridge. Three on S. W. W. near Brookins. One at Altaffers, (this is the bridge said to be in Otoe county. Geo. Fairfield, County Surveyor, care fully surveyed and measured the ground and swears it is fill in Cass county, and Otoe county agreed to build one just Xorth-east in their eounty in order to open Up the road to travel. This disposes of that charge.) Titli Levy. It is our settled conviction that con tinual grumbling and fault finding with public officials (of all grades from county up) has been carried too far in this country, and especially that species of howling that accuses every public officers as a rascal and imagines! mean corrupt motives for every move he makes. It is not in accordance with com mon sense or experience that men taken from the people, your neighbors and friends, always considered honest and reliable men by every person hav ing dealings with them, should at once in a day, an hour, become corrupt and dishonest because they are elected to an office. It is fair, it is manly, it is christian and right to suppose that men have some honest convictions of right and wrong in managing public affairs until they are clearly proven to have been negligent, unfair or dishon est in their public course, or are shown to have been so before in private tran sactions. We believe the Commission ers honestly think they can build bet ter bridges and at less expense to the county this way than by any other, and that they mean to do exact and equal justice to all parts of the county as fast as their means and circumstan ces will admit. The Herald proposes to stand by them in all reasonable and legal measures until we have better reasons for supposing them either fools, rascals of thieves, than at pres ent. But we do say that under the present stagnation in business and with the heavy debts pressing upon our people -Five Mills on the dollar for bridge purposes was pretty steep, and we would have been better pleased if Messrs Commissioners had thought fit to extend this work over a longer period and called for less money just now. Our taxation is enormous and it must be decreased. There is no iftt and antls about the matter ; State and County oflicers must reduce the ex penses of their offices and cease any unnecessary experiments no matter how useful to the public, until this pressure on the money world passes over. 1 We can't stand another ounce Don't lay it on, then, gentlemen, and break our backs and your own as well.

There is no com plaint to which humanity is Kithjcet which' the dyspeptic docs not at different times suppose that tie h;is. or is about to have. The. only way to disabuse the sufferer's mind of these fancies, which are realities to bini. is to infuse life and vigor into his digestive organs, and the most potent preparation for this purose is Ilostet ter's Stomach liitters. There is no affection of the stomach, no irregularity of the liver or dis order of the howels, consequent upon indiges tion, for which it is not an absolute speciiic. During the twenty-five years tliat it lias been the standard tonic and alterative or America, millions of dyspeptics have recovered their health and the rapacity to enjoy life by the sole aid of this wholesome and searching vegetable preparation. As an ossimilant and anti-bilious agent, a remedy for lassitude, debility, nervous ness and morbid fancies, there h;is never been anything comparable to it in any age or coun try. !!- THE MARKETS.
