A STRANGE Inconsistency is ofte
exhibited by nianyof our taxpnyei
who sign petitions asking for tb.
performance of work by the citj
and when the work asked for is pel
formed attempt to prevent just paj
mcnttlicrcfor through some techni
cal deviation from the fctrlct lette
of the law. Tf 1his course is Kept u ]
in this city much longer it will b
difficult to secure any contractor ti
take work at any price. Peopli
want to know before they undertuki
work that they will gettheir pay ac
cording to stipulation of contract
If any party is ' damagei
bv any tuch compliances on the par
of the city , they have an opportunl
ty of redress at the courts. We r&
member an effort similar to thai
row undertaken by the gentleman
on St. Mary's avenue , when JFarn-
ham btreet extension was graded.
The work on that street was
begun and payme.it was prom
ised out of a special fund ;
when it was completed the laborers
were paid in warrants , but the tax
payers adroitly put off payment of
taxes until their agents had suffi
cient time to buy up these warrants
from those who did the work in
good faith , at a very low price.
This may be very well for the prop
erty holders , but to use plain lan
guage , wo pronounce it legalized
robbery.
PLAIN TALK.
The Jfcpublican professes to have
the success of the party in Douglas
County at heart. It claims to rep
resent a high inoral clement. As
suming these claims to bo true , wo
ask , why dodge every issue which
is made in the interest of this coun
ty by skulking behind the mask of
personal malice. Mr. Edward Rosewater -
water left for Lincoln yesterday
morning , not one editorial in yester
day's paper emanated from his pen.
The charges , therefore , upon him
this morning only evince want of
ability to sustain the action of the
County Committee. Does Major
Balcombe , or Mr. Tafle , or
George "Washington Frost ,
really believe that the people of
this city and county desire to send
men to the Legislature who haven't
Eufficcnt ability or honesty to with
stand public investigation , for -ti
reasonable length of time ? There
are two classes of people who are
' not -wanted in important positions of
trust. First , men who are not
known at all , and second , those
who are too well known. The
duties devolving upon members of
the Legislature arc too great to be
entrusted to any one -without
care. The State interests , like
those of a great corporation , should
be mnnage"d with prudence.
No . . .bank or business house
would "employ a bookkeeper or clerk
without fully investigating into his
character , habits and integrity.
"What then can actuate the com-
mltteejn pursuing the course they
recommend ? The people want all
the time they can get to become
familiar with those whom .they are
to trust. The time can be had and
if Bomeol the committee are sere
because they were" not sent as dele
gates to Lincoln , they are not justi
fied in renting their malice upon
the party aud people of this county.
HYSTEEY OF lIYoTEELES.

OLDAHD NEWGBADES.
The time of the City Coun
< eem.s to be occupied nearly eye
iVeek in discussing questions in i
ation to old and new grades , ai
: ach lime the members seem
mow as little about it as they d
> efore. . Last night the same o
[ uestion was asked , "Are the pn
int grades upon Farnham stre
lifferent from fnoso formerly t
ablihhed , " and no one seemed
: now.
The muddle might as well 1
leared now as any other tim
Jntil within a year , all giades i
be city were defined upon the cei
jr of the streets. The height i
round at each point was designate
s so many feet above the low wi
jr mark of the river. To mali
ic estimate of low water mar
niform the estimate of 1857 wt
Jopted. This makes the stone ste
f the court house SO C-10 feet abov
ic low water murk. From thi
ullding the height of several hun
red others were carefully estima
d , so that if any one is destroys
hers can be used without chang
' result.
Now then the sticking point is jus
lis : fcThe height of all sidewalk
as regulated by distinct ordinal
s , and these were liable to chang *
cry few months. The first an or
nanct declared the outside edge o
alks should bo six inches abov <
e grade at center of the street
id such walks were defined as If
it wide ; they sloped at the rate o
e inch for every three feet IE
dth from the outside edge towarc
0 lot line , so that a twelve fool
ilk sloped four inches from the
tside edge to the lot or building
e , making the latter nine
; hcs above the center of street ,
tcrwards this ordinance was
inged , and walks were cstab-
iied 20 feet in width and the out-
e edge twelve inches aboye
j centre of the street. This
ingo effected the building lines
over the city , although virtually
s grades which were defined unon
itres of streets were not changed
all. After this another ordi-
: ice was passed establishing the
Iks as sixteen feet in width , and
: outer edge at six inches above
itre of street. This constant
inge of sidewalks was a virtual
mge of grades , although tech-
ally the grades were defined by
tres of streets. The constant
'rmedlhig in walks and grades
us to recommend the adoption
ill grade.-1 , with reference to curb
ss ujxm both sides of each street ,
that after once establishing a
tie in that way no change could
iflected by new sidewalk ordin-
es without actually interfering
li the grades. Unless such a sys-
, is adhered to , this city will be
with slde-
ver having difficulty -
ks , curbs and buildings. This
it be done sometime , and now
1 good an opportuulty'to do It as
ther.
f iux the Republican talks about

with which he is unquestionably
iliar. For any man who would

Confederate Inflation.
BY GEORGE GARY EGGLESTO :
( From the Atlantic Monthly. )
The financial system adoptee
the confederate government
singularly simple and free f
technicalities. It consisted ch
in the issue of treasury notes enc
to meet all the expenses of the j
erunient , and in the present
vanced state of the art of print
there was but one difficulty incit
to this process ; namely , the irn
sibility of having the notes sig
in the treasury department as
a3 they were needed. There 1
pened , however , to be several tl
sand young ladies in Richm
willing to accept light and remu
ative employment at their hoi
and as it was really a matte
small moment whose name
notes bore , they were given ou
sheets to these young ladies '
signed and returned them for a <
sideratlon. I shall not under !
to guess how many confederate t
sury notes were issued. Indi
1 am credibly informed byagen
man who was high In office In
treasury department , that even
secretary himself did not certai
know. It was clearly out of
power of the Government evei
redeem the notes , and whatt
{ nay liqve been the state of af
within the treasury , nobody <
side its precincts ever cared to ni
die his head in an attempt to gc
exact figures.Ve knew only t
monpy was astonishingly abundi
Provisions fell short somptlmes , i
the supply of clothing was
always as large as we should h
liked , but nobody found it diffi <
to get money enough. It was tc
had almost for the asking. And
some extent the abundance of
currency really scguiccj to atonp
its extreme badness.

Journalistic Triumphs.
Flic mission of the press at the
sent day is of such an extended
d varied character that nothing
left untouched by It. The most
note regions of the earth arc vis-
d by its representatives , and sub-
ts which were once jealously
arded as the exclusive property of
few varied individuals are now
cussed at length in its columns ,
e Herald has always appreciated
; vast importance of the mission
a journal in this progressive age ,
1 has omitted no opportunity to
> ke its columns a faithful mirror
the world's ' history from day to
r * . A striking pvidence of this
s recently shown in tbo mibli-
lon of the address of Don
rlos of Spain to the Christian
rt'ers , which address he intrusted
a Jfcruhl correspondent as the
t medium for making it known.
B entire London press , to whom
lies of this important document
re sent by our representative at
British capital , heiirtilyacknowl-
; ed the courtesy and bore testi-
ny to this triumph of American
rualism. It is , indeed , a most
mrkable instance of the power of
press when fi king for Don
los considers himself such by
iue right in Issuing a most im-
tant proclamation , nothing short
lie vindication of himself before
whole world , selects as his
uthpiece the correspondent
an American journal. The
ikncss and polite no
iwledgment of the Lon-
i press in this matter might be
fitably imitated neaier home ,
ille attending to the Carlist war
its many vicissitudes the Iferald
been equally vigilant in noting
outbreak of hostilities on our
i frontier , giving on "Wednesday
an exclusive account of the des-
ite battle between General Da-
son's troops and the Ooonees.Ki-
.s , and Comanche&in the Indian
ritory. Such Journalistic events
j a glimpse ot the vast field of
r In which a representative
spapcr is engaged and of the
whelming power wielded by the
s of the present day. JV. Y.
