THE 11BASON WI1Y.
In pursuing its bunhwlmcking policy
upon the city engineer the Jlcjiublicnn
went so far M to charge that ofllcor with
being in collusion with contractors , nnd
to give the eoinblsnco of veracity to its
incnking assaults that paper intimated
that the BF.F had been subsidized by con
tractors into a tupport of their raids upon
the city. When promptly challenged to
produce the proofs the Jlrpubllcan has
not n scintilla of cvidonco to nflur ngainst
the engineer , nnd only seeks to palliate its
vindictive and unmanly nttitudo by pro
pounding nome questions to the UEE con
cerning its courao with regard to public
improvements. Now , wo do not propose
to allow the sneaks nnd buohwhackorn to
crawl through rxny loop-hole. Wo will
moot the issues squarely and nnswor
every question regarding the courao of
his paper without reserve.
Wo nro nskod why Tnr. BEB has
"sought to defend the caphaU company
In its nefarious transactions , nnd whether
a journal depending upon public support ,
receiving no gratuity from unpopular nnd
questionable sources , would voluntarily
rush to the dofoneo f n corporation that
openly violates ita contract with the pee
ple. " Tun BEB is not aware that the
transactions of the asphalt company have
in nny way been nefarious , which nccord-
ng to Webster incanj "wicked , iniqui-
; ous , evil nnd unjust. " Wo have novcr
Icfendod the nsphalt company excepting ,
vhon , no wo remember , it was nesailcd
> y Swcesy's hand-bill for block-mailing
lurposos. In that instance the streets
iavcd with asphalt were represented as
cing 'almost impassable , broken up by
rest in the winter and molted by thohcat }
f nummor. TUB BEE never did justify
broach of contract by anybody , least
f nil by paving contractors. Wo slm-
ly pronounced the hue and cry of the
Icpitblican about the Sixteenth street
avomcnt as n moro tempest in n tea pot.
'ho ' contractors were under bonds to
amploto their work according to the
; iocificatlona of the board of public
'orko , and a sufficient amount of money .
ad boon retained to cover the cost of
10 stone blocks along the street railway
ack. Hence no loss could possibly on-

The Itcpub'ican wnnta to know why

10 BII : ia insanely opposed to the uoo of
olorado sandstone and so energetically
t
ipportod Sioux Fells granite and asphalt.
J
hti BEE advocated granite aa the moat
d
jslrnblo pavement for the principal
streets of < Omaha long before SIn
was a foot of pavement laid. Wo n
d neb care whether the material came
am Now Hampshire or Dakota. Wo
ivor have favored nsphnlt except for
; ht trafllo streets , and.eo far that mate-
tl sooma to give satisfaction on such
oroughfarcs. Wo have opposed nud
11 continue to oppoao the use of Colo-
do sandstone for paving purposes in
naha.
This is not an insane opposition , but
opposition based on sound economic
inciplos. Sandstone may bo good
ough for building purposes , sidewalks
d curbstones , but It is unfit for paving.
will not tan the heavy
iar nnd tear , and cannot even
tamped without breaking nnd split-
ig. The intense opposition against Jt
ilorado standalone when It was first in *
xluced was caused by the villainous 0 ,
tempts to nullify the expressed wish of
o property owners iu favor of other
ving materials. The agencies by which
ilorado sandstone haa boon forced upon
on Eomo of our streets In spite of pop- P
ar remonstrance are disreputable in the
. ci
tronio. ,
Wo are naked why the Sioux Falls jt j
nnito company has advertised in the
1515 nnd o what use to that company nii
iuld such an advertisement possibly
, - In
wo boon. . ,
T nt question can beat bo answered by
10 Sioux Falls company. They doubt-
sa doairod io have it known far nnd
ido thnt they had a paving material
jual to nuy iu tbo country , nnd they
nturally used the best advertising modi-
111 west of Chicago for thnt purpoao.
jntly wo nf Q asked why the BKI : was so
ixioua for the issuance of bonds provid- °
ig for the expenditure by this oily of
50,000 more for pavements , nnd why
Id the editor of the BKI : exorcise himself
orsonally lo secure the expenditure of
fo , for thia purpose ?
The BKE has been n persistent nnd
msistont advocate of public improve-
tents. For moro than ton years it has
rged upon the city the prime importance
I keeping pace with other cities in the
loiter of public works. Wo fought a
ittlo for waterworks in Omaha against
io moss-backs five years before they
ere built. Wo advocated paromonta
nd sewerage for years before they were
ogun and wo shall continue to urge Uid
olicy of systematic expenditures
> r that class of improvements ,
fo have a direct interest not only iu the
istorial growth of Omaha but iu the ex-
jnsion of the pavement on Farnam
treat. Wo believe that it is os ontlal to c t
lie prosperity of thia city to borrow
very dollar it can got legally from year
a year , for the next tivo or ton ycnraand
eop up the work until oil the business
lioroughfarcs and all the principal roni-
once streets nro p&ved and drained ,
'his ' is why wo fvorod not only § 50,000
ut § 75,000 for paving next year , nnd
tiora ia no other olfiihiieis in it
lau the desire to sou the city grow nud
rojpor.
Tin : board of education will submit to
tie electors of this city at the coming
lection n proposition for ( ho erojtlon of
,10 additional school houses to cost I
18,000 each. Ono d theao buildings f
ill bo located on J'arnnm struct , nnd d
[ 19 other at the corner of Eighteenth
nnd Ciwtollar streets. It is nlso pro
posed lo ask the people to vote $2,500
for the purpose of buying n lot and build-
n echool house in that part of the city
known ns Traintown , nnd § 3,000 for the
purchase of a school silo in the sixth
ward. Those propositions ought lo bo
carried wilhout nny queslion , ns Ihoy
probably will bo. Oinnhn is growing very
rapidly , and wo must keep increasing our
school ttccommodfitions. So far wo have
done very well , and wo have rcaion lo
fool proud of our school houses. Th
board of education ia pursuing Iho righ
course in erecting in the various parts o ;
Iho city moderately sized school houses o
a substantial character to nccommodnt
the immediate neighborhood , Instead o
pulling up n few largo and expensive
structures nnd compelling the children t <
walk long diatancca , Now thnt wo hav
the central parts of the city well sup1
plied with largo buildings , wo believe in
the erection of numoroua smaller schoo
housca in the outskirts.
Tnr brazen liars that have sprung up
In the second congressional district to
help Laird to a ro-olcction are ns iiumer
DUS ns Ilios around a molasacs barrel
( U the head of them stands Baraby , the
icavy villin , who after loafing around
tVnshington nil winter in quest of a con
itilahip turned hia talents to account for
i few weeks in a minstrel show In Philn-
lolphia. Baraby told the people of Fair' '
nont that the editor of TUB BEE confi-
lonlially assured him that ho would
upport Laird for re-election , nnd
10 still insists that VnnWyck is working
coth nnd toe-nails for Jim. Close bo
lind him comes the sanctimonious old
loublo-ondor of the Hnalings Gazette-
Journal , who wan la to impress it on the
ourbons that Laird is a bettor democrat
ban Fitz John Porter. Ho has a form-
lablo rival in donblo-dcaling in the
eadlight of the Nebraska Signal , which

Ixoter Ilnlcriirisc. According to that
ntcrprising prevaricator Captain Stickel ,
f-o years ago , offered to transfer the an-
i-monopoly yotcs in the legislature lo
im Laird to make him senator on con-
ilion that Laird would help Stickol to a
iat in congress. When nil theao ingo-
loua falsifiers put their heads together
10 people of the second district will can-
n'zo Jim Laird aa a saint , and roast
aptain Stickol at a barbecue.

One of the most curious phenomena o
the regular campaign is the party bigot.
If ho la a rcpublict n ho describes with
all possible malignancy of epithet th (
man who falls to tupport the party tha
carried on the war. Ton chances to one
ho woo not aooldlcr and did not contrib
ute a cent toward tending soldiers to th
field. If ho ia a democrat ho ia vorj
likely to bo a protectionist and Insist tha !
the democratic parly wai
alwayn opposed to revenue re
form , notwithstanding the array o ;
its platforms from the beginning of the
century down to the present timo. Tin
party bigot always insiato that the men o
a party should stick to the party for nether <
other reason than that It is the party , bu
the angola in heaven do not rejoice mon
over the ono recovered sinner than doe ;
ho over the fellow who loaves the other
party. Party bigotry is the stupidest ,
silliest and least rational of all bigot
rics. The party bigot is not a valua
bio man in a party because ho
can rarely give a reason for
bis faith. Whpn one roado the platforms
af the two parties in search of clearly de
fined opposing principles of government
trhat is the result ] They practically
igroo on all subjects but one the tariff
uid the tariff plank of the democratic
platform is so bunglingly constructed that
; ho Now York World construes it OB pro
tective for the democracy that want pro-
action , and the Louisville Courier-
Fournnl construes it as free trade for
ho south. If there had boon
nero courage in the convnotion , and if
i clear assertion of the reduction of all
nxation down to the level of the necessi-
IPS of the government had been made ,
mrty lines raizht bo drawn with equal
listhictness. Under the circumstances a
ilizon who scrutinizes the platforms to
ind reasons for voting for either candi-
late will bo sorely puzzled , and uudur
uch circumstances party bigotry is the
leight of nonsense. A bigot is equally
isoleas in politics raid in religion.

At a point two miles north of Inde-

ud n strong BQUSO of right. Unlike

CONGRESSMAN WtiiWER.
A Few JL'agcs From XlioL Gcntlcinnii'o
Ilcuord ,
FALLS CITY , October C , 1884.
To the L'ditor of THE BBB.
Under the head of special tclcgran :
from Falls City , October 2d , appears
garbollcd and ono sided report of th
mooting addressed hero by Senator Van
Wyck nnd A. J. Weaver. Senator Van
Wyck did not say ho endorsed all
Weavers actions , but admitted tha
Weaver had ou two occasions voted fo :
anti-monopoly measures. In thu good
nous of the senator's heart , and nnxloui
to compliment his colleague , ho in a general
oral way , said ho believed Weaver moan
to bo right. But the senator la making
a serious mistake in giving any aid o
countenance to this man.
Weaver has boon everything by turns
lUiaod a democrat , ho has been by turn
a republican and grooubackor. Now hi
ia trying to pass himself off , with Vat :
Wyck's assistance , forsu anti-monopolist ,
But whatever Mr. Weaver's profession
may bo , it ia utterly devoid of principle
.Nominated , according to his own organ ,
by Allen Field , seconded by Ohurcl
Howe , and eulogized by John M. Thura1
ton , ono a B. & M. , the other an M. P ,
copper and the third a U. P. attorney
aud lobbyist. Does any eano man believe
that railroad corporations send their po
litical attorneys to assist in nominating
anti-monopoliata ? Wo who live hero
know Weaver bettor. Wo remember
when ho issued an injunction to the B.
& M. R. R. to keep the MP. . from got.
ting into our town , and then skipped before -
fore daylight. Who haa not hoard his de
cision wherein county treasurers were enjoined -
joined from collecting taxes of the B. &
M. amounting to hundreds of thousands.
In short , hero at homo Mr. Weaver is
talked of as belonging to the B. & M.
A. nice mail to ask anti-mopolists to vote
For.
For.Mr.
Mr. Weaver has received since his firat
entrance into politics in salary alone ,
'outside of plunder ) , § 33,000. Ho haa
traveled for years , on railroad passes ,
rrorth to him hundreds of dollars per
mnum. Ho haa sent his family and
their families by the score on passes over
the country , and by so doing made them
lis fast friunda. And what has ho done
M repay the railroads for these favors
ilone , eay nothing of their oupport in
retting him into office ? Weaver
lover paid the railroads any
thing as a shipper or patron.
SVhy then thoao favora amounting to
; housando of dollars to Mr. Weaver from
; ho railroads ? "Was it for decisions ren-
lered on the bench ? Why those favora
low ? Is it for expected favors in the
lalla of congress ? I leave the reader to
lender , and especially all true anti-mo-
lopolists. Senator VanWyck , when
iskcd in regard to Ohaa. H. Brown , of
Dmalia , Weaver's opponent , and with
tvhorn the senator ROtyod three sessions
iu the state senate , said in his Falls City
speech in the presence of Weaver , that
D. H. Brown was a consistent nntl-mo-
lopoliat , a man , of brains , honor and in-
: ogrity , and that uo man in the atato was
icld by him in higher regard than Mr.
3. II. Brown , of Omaha. This is more
'ban the senator said in favor
) f Weaver , though ho employed
ewer words to say it in.
Senator Van Wyck came in daily con-
act withdrawn on the floor of the same
pom for throe aoaaions , running through
lix yoara. Of Mr. Weaver the senator
cnowa nothing more than anybody can
earn by reading the Congressional Rec-
> rd. Weaver haa tried hard to get up
in anti-monopoly boom through Van
IVyck , but that ono declaration as to
Brown's standing lota the wiuc ! out of
lia sails , aud buforp thia campaign ia
> vor the people of this district will have
> ccaaion to hoar the record of Mr. Wea
rer as it ij , wi.l not aa a ono-sldcd nftair
; otton up aud delivered by Weaver him
elf. But thia is already longer than I
ixpootcd at the out-set , and 1 will close ,

Sessional cipher for another timo.R.
