THE POLITICAL NUTATION.
In great political campaigns the par
ty in power is usually put upon the
In all that the. Omaha newspapers
have said about Pro-rata there is net
one word against its justice, and the
whole gist of their argument is that
it will possibly remove part of the
transit of freight and passengers from
that city to a point south of Platte
Piver. Xow this point may be Urown
ville, it may be Nebraska City or it
may be Plattsmouth. Any of these
points are likely to receive the whole j project
or a part of the decreased transporta
tion by reason of contracts and com
petition made by the Iowa roads.
This competition itself is what Omaha
like tho other cities named, absolutely
needs, and what its journals have been
loudly calling for, accusing the Iowa
roads of being "cut-throats." &c, xe.
We ask our Omaha friends if the ben
efit to be derived from this competi
tion will not do far more than compen
sate for the loss of a few through pas
sengers and freight at Omaha?
.Aside, however, from the pecuniary
advantages to be obtained by breaking
up the "pool" in Iowa, which this
measure is sure to accomplish, .we
stand up-.m the justice of the demand
for the passage of the Pro rata Pill
now before Congress. The entire
South Platte country has absolutely
been shut out from the markets of the
west by reason of the prohibitory
rates charged bv the V. I. P. It. from
Call It
Kearney westward on ail passengers
and products transported over the P.
& M. P. P. These rates have been ho
high that ihey have positively exclud
ed southern producers from seeking a
market in the west. It is notorious
that millions of pounds of all kinds
of grain and (lour are needed t sup
ply the army forts and Indian Agen
cies, while the vast region of mining

The Omaha Herald reprints our ar
ticle of hist week entitled Omaha, and
comments thereon at some length. We
have read the Htndd's comments care
fully, and fail to find one word of argu
ment or reason against the principle of
pro rata. The Herald does not touch
the merits of the question, nor attempt
to meet the issue we presented. Our
i
position was that pro rata will remove i
ruinous restriction:? upon the trade and J
traffie of tnrec-fourths of the State,
that Omaha to become anything more

A statement of this position, is a
statement of the strongest reasons for
its support. It is our opinion the Her
all does not desire a discussion of this
subject. Dr. Miller is aware that his
pi-itiou is unsound and untenable, and
lie is too adroit to enter upoh a discus
sion of the case, hence he flies off the
main question, with cries of alarm and
warning to Omaha; declaring that
somebody, or corporation or combina
tion is seeking to 'recruit influence'
from our own midst to carry out their !
This is decidedly weak for ;
the H'rald. It sounds very much like
begging the question.
To the political guesses of the IIki
ai.i about the renomination of Judg
CrCnnse to Congress and his election
to the U, S. Senate, "by the aid of the
Purlington and Missouri anti-IIitch-ccck
combination," we beg leave to
s:ty that. we are not aware that the P.
tS: M. ironld or could- do anything of
the kind; tln.t this is net simply a P.
u M. ttiest ion; it is not a Crounse
question, nor a Hitchcock question.
It is a question of the rights, and the
interests of three-fourths of the peo
