The proposition to vote $ . * 0,1KW ,
( enslhly as a donation to Ihe Mi
I'acille , is now helng agitated hy the real
parties in interest. That MIUVO and
genial gentleman , Tom ICmmiird , is de
voting his energies In Iho task of con
vincing the pcoplo of Lincoln that if this
Ins peculiar propo-tilioit is carried ,
tlio ell > will have immediate and direct
connection with the immense piuo forests
which surround .Atchixon , Kansas and
other prairie towns , and that coal will
bo dUcovored every three or four tnile.s
hetueen this point and Ihu niiiiu stem of
tlio road near Avoc.tt Tom is In favor of
some connection whiith will furnish
him relief , his swamp land hill
in the hust legislature Inning failed to
satisfy Ills natural cravings after some
thing. Tlio proposition provide ; , that thor
? r 0,0M ( in bonds shall be issued within
thirty days after the woikof construction
commences and ho placed in the hands
of a trustee to bo agreed upon by Iho
mayor and the lailroad company. Tlio
trustee clause Is the important feature
which endears this proposition to Iho
"real parties in intciest. " The trtisleois
not required to give any bond ; Iho Imnd.s
are to be negotiable ! on dclivoty , and
commence to boar interest eight , inonllis
before the road is required to bu com
pleted.
fn 1871 Lancaster county \otcd $100,000
in 10 per cent , bonds as a donation to
the Midland L'.ieilio railway company ,
for the purpose of aiding in the con
struction of a line of ro.id from Lincoln
to the. Union L'.ieilic. Ity tlio terms of
the proposition the bonds were to bo
delivered to two trustees and Iho load
was to bo completed HI as to have
trains running thereon in tho. ye-ir 187'-J.
and the trusteed were U ) dolher $ tOCO
in bonds to the company for
each milts of completed road in
sections of live miles ; the machine
shops of Iho company were aNo to bo Jo-
nted at Lincoln and to bu potmanently
'maintained hero.
Among other tilings , tlio proposition
contained this provision : "Ttio said
trustees shall .surrender all ofsaid bonds
to the county on the 1st day of January ,
187 ! ! ; that Iho said railway company is
not entitled to receive the bonds only hy
viltuo of : i full and faithful compliance
with the terms and conditions of this
proposition. " The bonds wore > olcd ,
issued , and placed in the hands of IMO
trustees , ono being the aforesaid Ken-
nard , and the other S. C ! , Owen.
Under ( lie proposition il. was Iho
duly of those trustees to hold
the bonds nnlij the 1st of January , lSt : ,
and if at that time the .road was not com
pleted to turn thorn over to the county
commissioners to bo cancel led. Not halt'
: i milo of road hud been completed on Iho
1st day of January , IB ? ; ) , and certain
prominent , lax-payers commenced an
action to restrain those tiuslecs from de
livering the bonds to the railuav com
pany. Hut the trustees had , on the U7th
day of December , 187'3 , delivered the
bonds to the railway company. The
company wild Iho bonds to innocent pur
chasers and the county has paid interest
at 10 per cent since 187U on these bonds ,
which were delivered by tlie.so "trus
tees" in direct violation of
the . vote of the pcoplo. Tom
IConmird doubtless expects thai ho will
lie again unpointed , trustee if this propo
sition curries. It is the evident , intent of
the parties engineering this sohomo to
got these , bonds into the hands of a .so-
nailed trustee , and when this is done it.
is immaterial whether the. road is buill or
nof ; the trustee can deliver ( lie hondxas
was done in 187tJ , and "relief" will be ob
tained.
The pre ont proosition | from the Mis
souri I'acilic , as c.in readily bo seen by
the facln hero given , is precisely .similar
to ( hat ono made by the Midland J'licifio
company , Under the piesent ordinance
passed l > y the city council , it provides
tlmt if tlio road i.s not completed
by September 1 , 1880 , Iho bonds
will be delivered totho mayor to bo can-
colled. The hitch in this arrangement
might easily bo the same as the Midland
I'acilic , and the bonds being in the hands
of innocent purchasers , the taxpayers
can seek the same "relief" they dfd in
187J5. The same old story may ho. again
told by interested parlies lo confiding
voter * . Unit the. trustee was not snllicienl-
I \y advised as to Ids legal and moral re
sponsibility as a trustee and cili/.en.
There is , any way , no possible neces
sity for voting the bonds at all , and if it
isilono the money will ho thrown away.
The Missouri Pacific wants to enter Lin
coln any way and the paltry Mini
of $ .r > 0)00 ( ) to such a corporation would
not dolor it n moment. Tom Ivunnard
and thu other men who are working the
hchomc wilt endeavor to show by the
Miphislry usually employed by sued per
sons that tlia.MlsMMin 1'noillo's only roa-
non for coming into Lincoln is lo secure
the $50,000. , Intolligontvotorsrihould not
bu led auuy in such a manner. Lincoln
is an important point for the Missouri
1'aoillc , and every ono can rest easy that
tlio road will como juxt the same
as if tlio inonoy was
gien N'o correct estimate can bo made
of what proportion of the money tlio
road would got and what proportion thu
' woikers ' would receive for lludr inllou-
eiico. The tdeetioij will occur Iho 10th
day of Ih H month , and all who desire not
to wink ( ho oily under an overwhelming
debt .should vote again M tlio bonds ,

A. A. Green , a deputy shorilV from
Alton , Osborno county , Kansas , was in
the city ycsteiday. It will bo rcmcin-
betcd that a short time ago ollicer.s in
Lincoln were notified that two men
named Fred and Joe Reynolds were ex
pected to pass through the city with a.
stolen teiim and a buggy from the Kan
sas town. The vigilant police iiero were
not successful in catching them and it
wiis not until they reached Tekemab that
they worn arrested. Green then went
alter them and brought the two men
to Lincoln , whore ho spent two
days. in getting his requisition
papers. During this time Green heard
lhat an olliecr from St. Paul , Howard
county , was after the Reynolds tor steal
ing a team of mules in that county , and
that the olliei \\onld use every cllort to
get thu men a\vny trom the Kansas olli-
cor. ( tiocn hastily left the city with bib
prisoners , and lakin" them about two
miles out of Lincoln , llaggcd the pas on-
ger train and got away. When ( Jreon
leached Altoii.Kansas , tnore was a. crow def
of about ! ! ( ) ( ) citi/cns awaiting him. They
desired to get his prisoners and lynch
them , but they \yero tinally safely lodged
in the county jail. The object of Green's
second visit to Lincoln is to get the team
and buggj v\ Inch ho loft here , and take
them back to their owner.

Yes { yon may well say "complaint ; "
for if there fa anything' makes .1 ijoo.-
mortal complain , it is to have his liver
out ot order. The liver is the great scav
enger of the body. It gathers up refuse ,
works it into bile , and then works the
bile off. It has a heavy contract ; and
sometimes fails. Then there is a general
disturbance. That disturbance is quieted
by taking 13rown'n Iron Hitters. Mr. W.
A , Urown , of Marsimltown , Iowa , says.
"Hrown's Iron. Hitters iclioved mo ot
liver complaint after oilier remedies had
