THE : railroad cappers at Lincoln lay |
especial stress upon the benefits which
raUroad construction and extension |
bring to a new country. Nbeanoman
is likely to deny that adequate means
of transportation are necessary for
the settlement and development cf the
wes . Nebraska producers , least of
all , desire the destruction of rail
communication with the outside mar
kets. They believe that the principle
live and let live should be applied to
corporations worthy of existence just
as much ; as to Individuals. And in
the face of the crushing extor-
tinns ] of railway monopolies ,
they are willing to apply this
principle to the roads within the
boundaries of this state. They are
nol , however , so ignorant as to look
upon such corporations as disinterest
ed public benefactors , built for the
purpose of developing the country
and benefiting the producers. They
have discovered to their coat that the
interests ! of the 'producers are nerer
taken < inta 'consideration when they
clash with the profits of the compa
nies. They have learned that
increased railroad facilities are granted
not for the accommodation of the
public , but in the assurance of heavier
pnta
ta
CO . * In other words they understand
COde
derstand fully that a railroad corpora
tion works firat , last and all the time
fein its own interests and that if such
interests happen to be identical with
inPt
public necessity , corporations deserve
Ptnc
nc particular credit for falling in with
the popular demand.
Ono thing Nebraska producers do
Intend to teach the common carriers.
They propose to mike them under
stand that -thoy are public servants
who ewe their existenca and main
taiuance to the people. Al
though , in one sense , private
enterprise ? , they have become in a
greater sense , common property , and
are on this account subject to legisla
tive control. Rightly conducted
they may become sources of legitimate
profit to their management and pow
erful in the development of the etate.
As now administered they are equally
powerful engines of oppression and
extortion , who build up and destroy
communities at will and snap
their { fingers in defiance at
their * patrons. The people of
Nebraska believe that the proper con
trol of railroad monopolies by the
people will benefit both the public and
the corporations. The ability of the
monopolies lo levy whatever tolls they
please opan the producing classes is
taken advantage of by schemirg
speculators to water stocks , increase
capital and plunder innocent investors ,
while at the same time they rob the
public cf their savings by systematized
nto
atized extortion in order to
toh.
increase their private wealth.

Omaha is on the h.igh crest of pros
perity.Duringthe last-three months
real estate transactions have been

J the coming-year" will witness a larger
I number of Bales of real estate than
t has taken place in any one year since
the panic. The most satisfactory fact
| in connection with the real estate

* poor classes have "bought to build not
to hold for an advance.

APOSTATE S.
A Stray Leaf from the Politi
cal History of the Stal
wart of Stalwarts.
-
Transcribe ! from the "Omaha
Republican" of Wednesday ,
January 9 , 1867. |
One-halt year ago this time Nebras
ka counted s full republican delega
tion of territorial officials. From the
governor to the laast in rank , ita offi
cers were , and had been for years , in
full communion with the republican
party , and in perfect accord with the
political sentiment of the majority oi
its people. It was then the pleasure
of the loyal men of the territory to
give to all of them the most implicit
confidence. As their standard bear
ers , it was their VJeasur < ) > to honor
these men. So , alao , was it our pleas
ure to put our faith in these gentle
men and sustain them with all our
heart aud strength so long as they
remained true to the principles of
freedom and loyalty which were the
guiding stars of the political party cf
which they and we were members to
gether. At 1.11 times wa held our
selves bonrd to defend their political
action ( ind 't was as much a pleasure
as a duty. ) to long as it was in unison
wi h thtsa principles. We held our-
. selv s equally bound to criticiz3 and
condemn any acts of theirs which
which might bo in violation of those
principles. This wo would do
without fear or favor ; looking to no
consequences to ourselves , but only
to fho best good of that which we
held most dear. Prospective loss of
patronage or support could not deter
us from the rigid execution of this im
perative duty. Though they could
pile before us mountains of gold , or
take iho bread from our mouth , we
should fulfill the bond as it was nom
inated. Consequences would bo
noihiug to us , the right would bu
everything.
To-day the aspect Is changed "While
the people have maintained their faith ,
and have pledged themselves to it
anew with greater unanimity and de
cision than ever before , tha most
lamentable treason has taken place in
gome of the high places , aud one of
the mon at least whom they and we
delighted to honor , has proven recre
ant to his high trust , and given him
self over to the most shameless aposta
cy. Following the ignoble example
of the man at Washington who dis
graces the nation , .ALGERNON SIDNEY
fADDOCK , Secretary of the Territory
of Nebraska , turned his back upon his
political friends and the political sen
timents which ho had professed , and
stepped forth last autumn as the
Copperhead candidate fora seatin Con
gress. Vet wo felt that compassion for
the man to which weak minds dazzled
with prospective elevation are enti
tled. We know that Mr. PADDOCK
was terribly afflicted with congress on
t.io brain. The prospsct was too
much for his light top gear. The office
would confer honor upon him. He
could not confer honor upon the of-
fico. And so we compassionated him.
But duty to the principles thus infa-
nu Uily betrayed demanded of us to [
denounce the 'reason and the traitor
as they deserved , nnd wo did so. We
spared nnt the rod which Mr. PAD
DOCK had pickled for himself , and did
not hesitate to diecuss and criticise
the new political principles""toT jeiT
he had sworn fealty i nd denounce
"iJve aposlacy of which ho had been
guilty. We fulfilled the bond.
} " " The prize which had unseated his
fidelity aud made a wreck of his
political honor and truth , slipped
3dh
from his grasp. The bauble which
had turned his weak head vanished
from his longing aj.ht ! The motive .
wbich made him a traitor ceased to
operate. As a weak man , he should
have now returned to hia first love
It would have bo = n in strict keeping
with tbo character of minds of doubt
ful ordinary calibre , which are re
markable for no one thing more than
a icant of firmness of purpose. But
( ho virus ot treasonable and treason-
loving Coppjrheedi-.ni had entered his
blood , and it had been suffered to run
riot there till it has assimilated
his whole arterial system to itso'.f ,
and the honorable ( ? ) Secretary has
become a Copperhead of the most un
adulterated stock and pure typo. nQ
lisa the homely but-expressive phraao ,
he has gone over bag and baggage leif
tie enemy. All his personal and of
ficial influence ia if8
prostuted to the sus
tenance of as vile and infamous 8S
spirit of treason and secession as ever
existed in any portion of our country.
Loyal man find only the negative sat
isfaction in this fact that hia personal
influence is as small as his treason ia
infamous , and that he has carried teat
the enemy only himself. When teL
OERNON SIDNEY PADDOCK went that
was all there was. The new friends
were astonished at the diminutiveness
of the accession ; and us their love S3Of
iho treason was only to bo in proportion
tion to the magnitude of its results ,
thcro has been nothing loft them but
to deapire the political traitor , which
they do most heartily.
With his political aposlacy Mr. PAD
DOCK has carried to D10
the enemy the
patronage of hia office , which ho ia
industriously using to feed and fatten ;
i ho disloyal sentiment of the territo
ry. That patronajjo which belongs tea
a loyal people , and which was entrus
ted to him by a loyal government , 310
ia prostitutiug to the support of that
treason which is
yet straining
every
nerve to destroy the fji
national
integri :
ty. With tha loyal element largely
preponderating in the Territory of
which he is an officer ofa
, aud in the na
tion to which ho is indebted for his
official honors , he ia using the
money which cornea from the pockets
of this loyal nation to feed the
dojuon which is stabbing it. Wo
state a fact which cannot be disputed.
In doing this , Mr. . PADDOCK has :
stepped beyond the limits
of his poicer ,
and is attempting to confer also the pat
ronagi of the incoming legislature upon
the same object IFithout any auth
ority of laic , ho has selected the
Om-.ha Herald , the proprietors ieof
j-wh5ch are known to bs in sympathy
with the treason whichwell
-well nigh !
wrecked the country , at'd who eagerly i
advocate every measure with which ii
defeated treason Is still endeavoring
to accomplish ita purpose , as the paper
to execute the
legislative printing :
this winter. That legislature is
largely republican. The loy.il ele
ment is largely in the majority ain
both t-f its branches. The copper :
head Becretaty of tha territory tn rif
tempting to snztch from it its legiti
mate patronage and bestow it upon
copperhead tavotites , ia an outrage
upon the political
parly which re
Mr. PADDOCK his official position id
the prerogative of the legislature ,
which we do not believe it will sub
mit to. He will not he permitted to
appropriate the hard earnings of loyal
people to disloyal purposes.
The manner in which
this outrage
upon the people and the prerogative
of the legislature is attempted to be
done is deserving of as severe censure
as is the attempt itself , and excites
the contempt of all frank , brave 63n.
Feeling keenly the meanness of his
act , and writhing under the cowardly
fears of all apostate. , he has not the
courage ot a man who sets to ft purpose
for which no conscience smites
him , but attempts to do by in
direction what he has not the nerve
toand do boldly. There is a book
and stationery firm in this city , which
has no printing establishment to do
work with , known as Barkalow Bros.
& Co. ( The "Co. " of this firm is the
editor and proprietor in chief of the
Herald. . The secretary selects the
Barkalow Bros , to do the legislative
printing , and then says he has given it
tire consertative republicans , who will
get , the work done where they please.
This : dodge la too transparent to de
ceive an idiot. It is the ridiculous sub
terfuge of atnnt cowardice. Itjs
woree than the ostrich which hides its
head inthebmh and leaves its big
body ( exposed to the view ef the
hunter. ; It would mantle with the
deepest blush of shame any cheek but
that of the Secretary of the Territory
of Nebraska. It is s transparent and
shameful as the tightj which only
serve to expose the persons of the
ballet girls ia the "Black Crook. "
Wky , tha whole ridiculous scheme
wa concocted in the Herald cilice
with its editor and A. S. PADDOCK as
principals.
IfNcowardice were worse than ireas-
on , this ridiculous feature of the
case would be more reprehensible
than the apostacy of the secrota y.
But they vie with each other ; and the
hardest labor of all is to award the
palm between them. Who shall de
cide where the scales are so nfcely bal
anced ? Driven to political damnation
for his apostacy , he is buried under a
mountain of contempt for his political
cowardice. But it is enough that
COM . PADDOCK has made hie bed in the
house of treason and disloyality. By
his . own act ho has placed a yawning
gulf between the party of freedom
and loyality and himself. That gulf
isN impassable. The republicans of
Nebraska know on what ground MB.

An Kvery-Day Episode.
Dctro't Frej Press ,
Just before 11 o'clock yesterday
forenoon there were thirteen men and
one woman at the stamp-window of
the postoffico. The woman had some-
thing tied up ID a blue match-box.
She got there first , and she held the
position with her head in the window
and both elbows on the shelf.
"Is there such a plaie in thia coun
try aa Clovelandl" she began.
"Oh , yea. "
"Do you send mail there ? "
"Yes. "
"Well , a woman living next door
asked ma to mail this box forjher. I
guess it's directed all right. She
saH it ought to go for a cant. "
"Takea two cents , " said the clerk ,
after weighing it. "If there's writ
ing inside it will cost twelve cents. "
"Mercy on me , but how you do
charge ! "
H ro the 13 men began to push up
and hustle around and talk about ono
old match-box delaying two doz n
business letters , but the woman had
lots of time.
"Then It will bs two cents , eh ? "
"If there ia no writing inside. "
' Well , there may be. I know she
is a great hand to write. She's send
ing some flower seed to her sister , and
I presume she has told her how to
plant 'em.
"Two threes ! " called one of the
crq&d , aa ha tried to get at the win
dow.
"Hurry up ! " cried another.
"There ought to be a separate win
dow hero for women , " growleda third.
"Then it will take 12 cents ! " she
calmly querriedas she fumbled around
for her purse.
"Yes. "
"Well , I'd better p y it , I guess. '
From one pocket she took two cop
pers. From her reticule she took a
three-cent piece. From her purse
she fished out a nickel ; and it rraa only
after a hunt of 80 seconds that she got
the 12 cents together. She then con
sumed four minutes in licking on the
stamps , asking where to post the box
and wondering if there was reilly any
writing inside , but woman proposes
and man disposes. Twenty thousand
dollars' worth of business * a being
detained by a 12-cont woman , and a
tidal wave auddonly took her away
from the window. In 60 seconds the
13 men had been waited on and gone
their ways , and the woman returned
to the window , handed in the bos and
said :
"Them stamps are licked on kind o'
crooked , but it woa't make any differ
ence , will it ? "
