er from the Grove, and Me renees, from
Pleasant Kidge. Eight Mile was in
favor of the compula, and Pleasant

was decided in the negative, or in fa
vor of no compulsory education, on
the side of Pleasant liidge.

remarks on our present Mayor's course
and alio give our views in regard to
lbs sort of man our next Mayor should
lie. Owinr to press of other business.
aud perhapj a partial change of views
in this matter, we shall omit any com
ment on city aJTairs this week. Only
wise men change their opinions, fools
remain always of the same views we
may have been mistaken in the first
vase mentioned above and may change
our notion as to the best man to till our
Uayors chair before next week. For
the present we are in statu quo, on
tty officers.
C9MT1 rUTlONAL CONVENTION.
Ou next Tuesday' the Central Com
Mittee is called together to take action
in regard to nominating three members
from this county to the Constitutional
Convention about to sit. We should
like to have the Democratic Committee
cueet us at the same time, and agree, if
thought best by both tides, on a tick
et. The committee will alto dtter
iniue whether we shall hold t conven
tion, when, where, &.c.
It is of the highest imyortance to
the county that we send the ablest,
best and soaaicst men we have to this
cosveutioa. They will help to make
the fuud&tnent.J law of the land for
the aext twenty years perhaps. They
will have to meet the ablest men from
all pans of the Stat, and especially
-will we have to stand up for a fair and
rpor lion able representation from
this eounty according to its wealth, po
sition and probable rank in the future.
Politics to a great extent should be
voided aad the very clearest headed
wten we have should be sent there.
The Herald has repeatedly express
ed the view that we Deed a short, con
sist, plain document, covering just as
much ground as is necessary to provide
a framework for laws and statutes to
fce attached afterwards. Constitution
Making is not law making; and this
docuiuent will have to be carefully
worded or it will be voted down again.
Twenty thousand dollars every year or
two is too expensive a luxury to spend
for a Costitaticn that it likely to be re
jected Iet us see to it then, citisecit, tail
we get pre, able, and sound men, if
Oast Las any more left of that tort, to
jepresent us this time.
The subject of taxatien ought and
will probably be thoroughly over haul
ed, also of bonded indebtedness and
Capitol moving which should be fixed
by constitutional limits and never
changed without a vote of the people.
We hope to tee a full attendance of
both committees at the IIebald office,
n Tuesday, March Sth, and in your
primaries, (if we call a county conven
tion) send your best and most dispas
siojiate man.

COUNCIL- PROCEEDINGS.
At a called meeting of the Council,

The Mayor then called attention to
the importance of the Trunk Road and
a committee was appointed to visit
Nebraska City to facilitate the build
ing. Also, to the fact that the man
agement of our schools would pass
from the hands of ouk City Council to
a board of Directors elected by the
people at our next city election, agree

ACTS OF THE LEGISLATURE.
The Herald will publish as soon as
we can get them the local laws passed
by the legislature, that our people here
are interested in, and the titles at least
of all the laws passed this winter. ' We
cannot thi3 week, and only give the ti
tles of few in which our people are
particularly interested, viz.:
Au act to aid the coustsuction of a
railroad on the west bank of the Mis
souri river from Omaha to the south
line of the state.
An act for the protection of stock
growers.
An act to provide for calling a con
veution to revise, alter and amend the
constitution of the State of Nebraska.
The majority report was accepted.
limiting assessment on railroad beds,
JLc, at $10,000 per mile.
The illuminating oil bill has become
a law, to take effect May 1st, 1875. By
virtue of this it is made a crime, pun
ishable by tine and imprisonment, for
any person to sell oil containing ietro-
leum, for illuminating purposes, of a
less standard than 110". This docs

An act in regard to our city schools,

City Charter. Just hew the herd law
was changed we cannot find out. but
Major Wteeltr has promised to get us

will all be published.
new for our folks, and
tome time and money in obtaining
original and reliable news from Lin
coln, and publishing the same, and also
we know that the IIekald has given
you as able original editorials on pub
lic affairs as ary pa riu tle Mate;
aud heie juat as we were congratulat
ing ourselves on Ih.fct fact in come a
lot of grumblers and find fault because
we have neglected 'as they say) ctmtity
matters and have int published our
county prticeedings, &c. also that we
take up too much time with city mat
ters and city affairs.
In publishing a paper during the
course of the year a great number aud
variety of subjects must be treated of,
from all parts of the country, such as
General newt, great excitements, coun
ty news. State news, city news, etc.
Each in their turn must have prece
dence and to each we endeav
or in their place to turn our attention.
For instance, when Congress is in ses
sion as a matter of course we would
naturally give more attention to pub
lic and national matters, and when our
State Legislature is in session county
and city news are laid in abeyance, and
State matters have the preference.
In great excitements, suck as great
fires, floods, Beecher trials, or temper
ance tidal waves, we must report and
comment on these as they come along.
Again, when we are on the eve of a
city election, as we of Plattsmouth are
you must exiect and it is no more than
right that at that time we should give
more attention and space to city affairs
than at other timet. The county will
receive her due share in due time, and
when her matters are of the most im
portance, and we think anv sensible
thinking man will see the duties of
newspapers as above in their true light.

Now please turn the sheet over and
tee what you are doing for yonr news
papers. There is two 6ides to this
question. We have given you a good
paper on the whole far superior to
the ordinary run of county papers.
What do we receive in return?
cincvLATiox.
In a town numbering COO inhabit
ants and the country surrounding that
came there for mail, we had a list of
200 and over. In Plattsmouth, with
the country about coming here for mail
and it is better settled here than where
we speak of, our list is only 200 to 215.
In a county numbering 6000 people
by census, we had a larger list than we
have in Cass county numbering nearly
11,000 persons. The county printing
of one of these new counties out west
is worth twice what the printing is
from our county. When we bought
the piper the city printing was esti
mated at $500 pc year, at least. It
has never approxhn tted that sum and
this year will be less than $-00 divid
ed between two papers.
ADVK.1TISIN"(J.
In this town we speak of, the four
principal merchants in the town never
thought or dreamed of taking less than
one entire column, standing Ad.. $100,
no grumbling about the price; then
their locals and job work amounted to
$100 more, and every carpenter, black
smith. Doctor, Lawyer and business
man had a short Ad. at least in the pa
per. How is it here? While at Lin
coln this winter an editor of a paper in
a town not numbering over 500 inhab
itants, told us his locals alone ran $40
a week, other advertising in proportion.
We made some inquiries, and must
state as the truth, that towns along the
B. & M. & U. P. It. It'ds. (even out in
grasshopper regions) not nearly as larg
as this, gave to their papers more than
double the income you are doing
here.
We are ashamed to write down the fig
ures in each place.and shall not. Now
these are not nice things to till the pa
per w ith aud we have avoided it a long
while, for policy's sake ; but when men
grumble at the IIkkald to much, we
must grumble back and show you our
side of the question. We ought to
double the subscription we have in the
county and one fourth more in the
town, and every man should try and
aid its circulation, and then take a
pride in it and send us news and items.
which we could then afford to "set-up;"
we can't now.
The merchants and mechanics in
town should each and all have an Ad
in, and pay for it in Cash, now and
then. Look at the paper and see if this
is the case, Where's your Hotels your
Doctors, your Mechanics, and your
smaller business men, while tome of
the best merchants we have are con
tent with a $15 or $20 Ad.
We have been spending money ever
since we came here fixing up and ad
ding to the Herald, and other prop
erty, now please give us a chance to
get some of it bark or at leat don't cut
us down to the very lowest living lim
it ot existence and then scold because
you think we ought to give more news
for not mug.
