Rufus Pope, alias It. D. Chase,
the noted bigamist, of Liucolu, had
his trial the other day before Judge
Pound, lie was confronted iu court
by his first and his second wife, and
alter hearing the tcstimouy, the jury
retired aud returned iuto court
agaiu iu exactly two minutes, with
a verdict of guilty of bigamy, lie
had not received his sentence,
but it was thought that Judge
Pound would give him the full
penalty, seven years in the peni
tentiary. Stci-s have recently been taken
"by the members of the board of the
the capitol-addUion buildiug at
Lincoln, to let the contract,
aud after estimating the incidental
expenses of the board, and for ad
vertising, plans, &c, which taken
from tho ?75,000 appropriated, the
board would havo $GG,000 with
which to construct the building.
They have made a pretty good start
to take out the head of the pile
$9,000 before the law appropriating
the money shall be declared uncon
stitutional. It is stated upon good authority
that the senators aud representatives
in Congress from Nebraska have
urged the President to appoint the
secretary of war from west of the
Missouri river, alleging as the rea
son, that the army has become noth
ing but a protecting force for the
border 6tatcs. This will be a toler
ably good office while peace pre
vails, but during a time of war has
its cares, anxieties and responsibili
ties, and proved the means of the
early death of E. M. Stanton, a good
and patriotic man.
Don't lc Fricrlttcnctl, Coaxed
or Weceivctl.
Making an estimate from last
year's actual voto in Platte county,
by adding the Eamc per cent, of gain
that we have had of population, the
vote on the bonds will be 1300. One
third of this is, say 431, two-thirds
SG7. It is altogether too much to
expect a unanimous vote as it
ought to be, but the friends of com
petition should see to it that uo
effort is spared to make it as nearly
so as practicable. Every intelligent
voter acknowledges the desirability
of competition. All who have in
vestigated the situation recognize
the necessity of competition, and the
importance of securing this southern
line. The propositions have carried
Seward and Butler counties by
sweeping majorities, aud the same
should be true of Platte county.
Your vote is your own, and should
bo under the control of your own
intelligence, unbiased. Depend upon
it, the heart of the people is right iu
this matter. Don't allow the Union
Pacific R. R. Co. or any of its agents
to frighten or coax or deceive you
into voting against this proposition.
It is only such men that are actively
engaged in the canvas against this
proposition. They etaud in a some
what similar relation before the jury
of the people as does an attorney to
a client in court, who may speak
cither his real sentiments or those
merely that best suit the exigencies
of tho client. Think of the situation
of the Union Pacific Co. in this con
test, and you can very readily see
what those exigencies are. She pays
about one dollar iu five of the taxes
of Platte county, and will therefore
pay one-fifthof all the A. & N. road
will cost tho county. Aside from
this tho actual loss to the U. P., in
decreased profits, for transporting
our products will, at a fair estimate,
be $100,000 a year. It will be seen
that she is doubly interested against
the bonds, while the citizens of the
county at large arc doubly interested
for tho bonds. Iu a coutcst of this
kind whom can the U. P. get as ac
tive workers for her? Evidently
those who arc tied to her by obliga
tions of some sort, moro or less
6trong favors received, favors
promised, or favors expected. There
may, possibly, be exceptions to the
application of this general principle,
but it is extrCmcly difficult for can
did men to believe that there is one
voter iu Platte couuty working hard
against the bonds, turning every
stone in favor of the Unioii Pacific
Ji. Ji. Co., tcho does so because his
soul is in the work.
"Great is Diana of the Ephesians,"
which in this case means, if they
don't mako at least a 6how of work
their occupation would be gone.
Tor the Journal.
Mr Editor: A public meeting
was held at tho residence of Mr
Henry "Wasscrbcrgcr, Stearns prai
rie, Saturday night. G. C. Barnum,
II. G. Carcw and G. Schuttc were
the speakers, and spoke to a very
crowded house in favor of the A. &
N. bonds. Our brother farmer, Mr.
Barnum, made somo very impressive
remarks regarding the bond ques
tion. The speeches were well re
ceived by the audience and went to
show that nearly all the farmers in
this vicinity are for the bonds, and
will do all they can for a competing
line with the U. P.
The Messrs. Speice & North, M. T.
Kinney and D. C. Loveland, all from
U. P. headquarters, made come re
marks agaiDst the bonds, but did not
have much effect upon the audience.
Where is the man, the Hon. D. C.
Loveland, our float Reprcscutative,
who made the assertiou that he was
not working against the L. & N.
propositiou, when he" is working the
best he knows how to kill the bonds ?
He said in his remarks on Saturday
night if the bond question will not
stand discussion there is something
wrong; if there is a flaw iu the
proposition submitted aud the peo
ple of Platte couuty aro so short
sighted that they cannot see it, why
don't he stand up like a man and
throw some light on the subject?
To the people of this county he says
the future vill reveal if the bonds
carry on next Saturday, aud I verily
believe they will. The futuro will
reveal a mighty big cut on all kinds
of freight, on the great, tyrannical
U. P. corporation R. R., aud our
float Representative will get a cheap
ride down to Lincoln.
As for Mr. Kinney, he would not
give his reasons for backing up ou
the bonds cither. Every sensible
man can see where tho flaw comes in.
Self interest says to every farmer
in Platte county, voto for the A. &
N. bonds on next Saturday ; let none
of the U. P. workers dictate tho way
you shall vote; do your own think
ing and do your own voting at the
polls; vote for tho A. & N. bonds,
aud have a competing lino with the
U. P., and we will get better prices
for our produce in the future.
Truth.
THE IOWA POOL AND JAY GOULD.
Neither of Them does Business for
Nothing.
J. R. Meagher, agent of the U. P.
at this station, made a statement in
his communication iu last week's
Journal, which needs a fuller ex
position than wc had space for at
that time. In reply to him we as
sumed that what ho said was entire
ly true, aud then showed that it was
to our interest to havo a competing
road.
Mr. Meagher said that on through
grain to Chicago the U. P. gavo the
Iowa pool 30 cts. out of3Sa hun
dred. Doubtless, Mr. Meagher's books
show just theso rates, aud he him
self affects to believe that Gould is
compelled to "knuckle down" to the
Iowa pool, but he states the matter
very ingeniously. "When a witness
is sworn, the formula is that he shall
tell the truth, the tohole truth, and
nothing but the truth. Mr. Meagher
tells the truth so far as he goes. His
books show rates ou grain from Co
lumbus to Chicago 38 cts. a hundred
pounds ; from Columbus to Council
Bluffs 1G; Columbus to Omaha 11;
Council Bluffs to Chicago 30. In
considering theso figures (which we
get from Mr. Meagher himself) how
must they be interpreted? "We can
not leave out of the discussion the
fact that tho bridge from Omaha to
Council Bluffs is a part of the U. P.
road just the same as their bridge
spanning the Loupe west of us is a
part of their road, and over which
they have no more right to charge
extra mileage rates than they have
over the Loup bridge. Now, then,
how does the matter stand? Graiu
rate to Chicago from this depot is 38
eta. From here to Council Bluffs is
10 cts., leaving the Iowa pool 22 cts.
In making this deduction from the
figures, wc havo as good a right to
assume that the U. P. get 1G out of
the 38, as Mr. Meagher has to assume
that the pool get 30 out of the 3S.
According to Mr. Meagher's way
of reckoning, Gould has been allow
ing the Iowa pool to make him a
cat's paw, a go-between, in robbing
us of 8 cts. a bushel to Council
Bluffs. "Wc are satisfied that it is
the latter; that Gould gets a divide
on all through freight passing out of
or iuto his care at Council Bluffs.
Doubtless he has been compelled to
put up with a much smaller
share of the pool rate than he would
like to have, and heuco seeks to
bring the Iowa roads to his terms
by threatcuiug to go round them
altogether by completing the 25
mile gap from Grand Island to
Hastings, and go over the St. Joe &
Denver, the Hannibal and the "Wa
bash Hues. On this route he can
carry all west of Grand Island aud
all cast of Toledo, but the man who
believes that Gould don't receive a
good rouud sum for delivering
6uch an immense amount of freight
as he does to the Iowa pool lines, is
pretty callow, aud James Meagher
is not a last year's chickeu by any
means.
The truth is, beyond doubt, that
Gould receives just the same out of
the 3S as he docs wheu shipped to
Council Bluffs, viz. 10 cts., but the
instructions to station agents make
it look otherwise.
When wo get the A. & N. wo
shall not be under the thumb of the
the U. P. or the Iowa pool either,
but will have two raud competing
markets, Chicago aud St. Louis,
with eight compctiug roads from
the Missouri river.
Grain is now 25 cts. a hundred
from Lincoln to Chicago, GOO miles.
With the added miles this would be
2S' cts. from Columbus as against
38 by the U. P.
Vote for the A. & N.
"U. P. LOCAL FRIEGHTS."
The Otber Side.
I hold a freight bill made out and
receipted iu the bold, dashing hand
writing of my friend Meagher,
which reads as follows :
"S, C. & P. car 151, Lumber, weight
2i"00 lbs. 'Back charges' from St. Paul,
3Iin to Fremont distance 420 miles
?GC.00,' 'our charges.' from Fremont to
Columbus, distance 45 miles, '? 13.1'."

houses should not throw stones.

FARMERS TO THE RESCUE.
IScncdiet Arnold Working Tor
Our Oppressor.
Editor Journal: As you will
very likely discover before you read
this through, I am not a uowspapor
writer, but as a farmer and tax
payer I would like to ask the friends
of that soulless corporation, the U.
P., what will wc gain suppose the
U. P. builds all or part of the wild
cat roads surveyed and promised
through this county ? The maiu lino
of the U. P., like the deadly Upas
tree withering everything within
its influence, now finds advocates
for an extension of its cursed
branches up through this fair coun
try. Aro they not satisfied with tho
bondage wo havo experieuced in
the past from the extortions of tho
U. P., and now that a helping hand
is extended to us they seek to mako
our bondage perpetual by opposing
our true friends from tho southeast
and encouraging moro links to the
galling chain we havo worn for
years. Let all the natural road beds
iu this county (tho valleys) be mo
nopolized by tho U. P., and what
will the county amount to? Bene
dict Arnolds in our midst may
work, directly and indirectly, in the
interests of our oppressor, but all
true friends of the people who ex
pect to make this their home for the
future will stand by tho bonds of
tho A. & N., even though the U. P.
has to pay part of them.
Farmer.
For the Journal.
Can Jny (xould IJuy llio A. Sc Ti.'i
The employees of the U. P. com
pany, now canvassing this county
for tho purpose of defeating the
A. & N. bonds, are very industri
ously circulating the report that Jay
Gould has been negotiating for the
A. & N. road and is able to buy it
if he wishes. They further claim
that the A. & N. is a little branch
road and cannot stand alone if the
great railroad gambler wants it.
Now, is this so ? In tho first place
the company that owns the A. & N.
owns 1300 miles of road, every part
of which is necessary to make the
whole worth anything. Eighty per
cent, of this stock is owned by Na
thaniel P. Thayer and his family, of
Boston. Mr. Thayer also owns a
controling interest in the great Fort
Scott coal fields, and those immense
interests depend for their valuo on
tho A. & N. road. Now is it likely
that these wealthy Bostonians are
going to place their great coal prop
erty at the mercy of Jay Gould, by
selling the road that makes it valu
able? No, that is not likely; and
these same U. P. employees have
been instructed to tell the people
that Jay Gould can force them. The
next question is can that little
scheme be carried out? In the first
place, Jay Gould is a railroad slock
gambler, and never bought a share
of stock as a legitimate investment
in his life. He buys railroad stock
as a gambler bets on a corner, and
never to improve its intrinsic value,
lie is variously estimated to be
worth from one to five millions of
dollars, but tho great commercial
agencies refuse to report him be
cause they cau:t tell whether he is
worth a dollar or not. Now who
is N. P. Thayer, lie is the richest
aud most honored man in Boston.
For years the head of the Chinese
tea trade, he accumulated immense
wealth. Some years ago he got
out of the shipping business, and
invested money in the Fort Scott
coal fields. But coal property at
the mercy of a railroad amounts to
nothing, so the coal king bought
stock in several railroads and to-day
owns nearly all tho stock iu the
A. & N. Unlike Jay Gould, he has
wealth that can bo rated, and Duun
Barlow & Co., the great mercantile
agency of New York aud Bostou,
estimate his wealth from thirty-four
to thirty-six millions. This gentle
man is not a stock gambler like
Gould, but as fine a representative
of tho old Puritau merchant as the
old Bay State can produce. He
wants to build the A. & N. road
through to Columbus and then
through our county to sell his coal,
and it is because he will sell this
coal from five to six dollars per
tou that Jay Gould's servants make
such infamous assertions to our
farmers. This is why James North,
the U. P. coal dealer, is so busy,
and this is why the man who burns
coal oucht to be busy on Saturday
next voting for tho A. & N. road.
Men of Massachusetts and there
aro some of them among us you
kuow that what I say of the Thay
ers is true. You know that their
word is sacred and wheu they say
that Jay Gould can't buy the A. &
N., that promise is as good as a
bond. Tell this to the men who
don't kuow so much about the mat
ter as you do aud Jay Gould will
no longer have the farmers and
merchants of Platte county by the
throat. Fair Play.

Ed. Journal: Tho Compton
corn referred to in your last paper
has been raised by me for the past
two years, aud was exhibited last
Fall at what professed to bo our
County fair, but which iu reality
was nothing but a horse race; I
raised at that time 10 bushels of
shelled corn to tho acre ou breaking,
for which it is well adapted hard
ening in 80 to 90 days from planting.
It is of the flint variety, and, there
fare, not so saleable, but well
adapted to short seasons or late
planting. I strongly doubt if 200
bushels have ever been raised to the
acre. My seed was obtained from
the agent of tho originator aud I be
