Howe hm written a letter on tbo subject of the Nebraska Control proposi tion \vhlcn will bo submitted to the voters of ' Douglas county Juno 10. Hoiays : ) I nlmll cordially support the proposition for the ono gODornl , cotnprohcnslvo reason that noOjottor proposition , or ono moro carefully | guarded in the Interests of the public , was J ever submitted to tbo citizens of this city , or J tiny olhor western city , to vote upon. If our -citizens , through mistaken notions of its merits , or under the influence of agoncle * ncTunlly hr-itllo to the wolfnro ana pros- parity of the city , nhould defeat the prouo- salon , It would bo a calamity indeed. Prom the first I have favored the schoioo , provided reasonable safeguards for the publla could bo eocurod ; to get those safeguards 1 labored hard , aud , because - cause I did BO , tbo impression has cone abroad that 1 was opposed to the proposition to give ui a frco bridge and Unmlaal com pany Itself. Far from it. That ii , and for twenty vents has licou , the crying aomatid of the hour. Us realization means lor Omntm rnorootban anything thut has over occurred in Us-history. Whllo I dla not uucccod in Bolting-all o'l the amendments I worked for , nevertheless tbo proposition is so murltorlou ; and contemplates BO great an nchiovenioni 4or our good , ntid Is so well proteuttid that J tnnrvfel that nny disinterested citizen. can hcsltnto a momuut about supporting it. I Innrn with Hiirnriio. howavor. that n strohc movement Is , on foot to defeat the bonds many who biwo bocn led lute It arn entirely deceived by the selfish motives of those wuo am ItaJeaUors tthd-fail tojeo tnat the real principal instigators of the movement nro ttioso who are interested in maintaining the briJgu tnunopoly at thin point that has boon thu curse of Omaha tor twenty years. Tboro nro ulso schemers whoso schemes long sine died u-borning , who object to seeing soniu other party's sohonio succeed. But , beside the city's future , those appear puny and moan. What is this great scheme nnd what are the risks wo incur If it should fall , after wo have voted tbo bonds ) Lot us look a the situation of Oinahu. Twenty miles t south of us Is the Burlington & Mlssonr bridge. That great system of railway hauls n largo portion of tbo crops of the southern ana western portions of our own state tmst our city twenty mlles away. The North- Western's great system of railway hauls on Immense amount of tno protluco of our own ctato past our doors , but thirty miles to the north of us. The Union Paclllc has its hand upon the nccte of every merchant and Indus try In our city , and has used the subsidies wo gave It to keep eastern railroads out , and to cut the throat of our city. Another bridge and a terminal plant In the mia t of our city , with u double track through the heart of thu city , with a spur to the LUUo Papplo all to bo frco nnd open to all railroad ccrapanlos means salvation to the city ; means to thwart Iheso enemies of Its prosperity , and this is the reason wh > there is such a strong combination to defeat the scheme. Our own citizens , In their blindness , are being used as the instruments of the enemies of the city , upon ouo pretext aud another. I call atten tion especially to the feature of the proposi tion that provides for 100 miles into Iowa. That line will bring into Omaha , within a short time , at least half a dozen railway com panies , some of them very rich ana power- lul ; and when they g3t hero we shall sco thcni ( and within 11 vo years , I predict ) buy ing property here , building freight yards and buildings aud extending lines of railway to the west and north and south , tboreby bringing the crops nnd cattle of our state to our own city to build-it up Instead of build ing up Chicago. Nothing would be more likely to facilitate the coming of J , J. Hill's Great Nortnera from the northwest. J. J. Hill Is the great est railroad man west of nlcw York ; ho Is a man of great schemes and great power. Once get him Interested hero and It would moan a great advantage to him and to this country. It Is but a step from Paplllion to the LUUo Papplo extension. Lot not his friends try to fool our people. Truly , the great desideratum of our city , the ono that towers above all others In Importance to the city , Is to have a free bridge and terminal plant in the heart of tbo city. What are our risks ifve vote tbo oondsi "Wo do not deliver a bond until "thu goods are delivered ; " when the bridge and approaches preaches ( which will cost from 500,003 to $1,000,000 } are completed ( and not before ) wo deliver only JJ50.000. When 100,000 have been expended for the depot and tor- mlcnln ( and not before ) wo deliver 150,000. V/hon the double-truck railway is built through the city to South Omaha , and the track to Pappto ( and not before ) wo deliver 1350,000. When tbo 100 miles in Iowa are completed ( and not before ) wo deliver 8100- 000 , or $1,000 per mlla only for this Im mensely valuable railway I Five hundred - .thousand dollars must bo expended next year ( within nlno mouths after Muy 1) ) or s the bonds bo forfeited , ana the work must BO on continuously until & ,000,000 have boon expended , of which proof must bo made to the county undmty. . If tbo company , unaided by others , is not strong enough to build , which is probably the case , tboy are men of strongtn. aud charac ter , who can interest capitalists to take hold of so inviting an investment , nud that is all wo want. We want the bridge and ter minals. Neither tbo city nor tho' county can , under our constitutional limitations , enter upon any such entorprlsos , und wisely so , it tliov cannot build uhospltal for the poor that Will stand utter the last Installment has been paid thocontractor. , Some may dlsllko cer tain members of the company ; but how nar row aud unbusinesslike ) is it , for that reason , to oppose tbo best interests of the city I Likely tboy will maku some money out of the scheinb."but what of ill U tnoy succeed they will bo welcome to it Omaha will make moro than they 1 In case the scheme tails , what'shall wo lese by votlnir the bonds I Not a bond. Not a dollar. Wo bnvo tied up , to tbo extent ot $750,003 , our power to glvo away ucfhd * to otbor parties , until the end of 18fl3-r venr ana a Half I That won't hurt u "v ry much 1 It wilt likely do us good. Now , then , candidly , this Is all the danger or risk wo incur In case of failure ou the part of tin Central company ; whereas , in ouso of success , wo shall have the realiza tion of a project that means moro for Umahu than anything else that anybody aan devise or suggest. I ) uvo you thought of another thing I This Is the second effort to ( 'et the bonollt of the harter to bulld.this brldgo. If it fails this lliieII moans fulluro forever. And this is why the r > ailroads and thn East Omaha Lund company will tight it to the duuth. This last named company ( it is said ) wants to build a brld o two or three miles north of the center of the town. It Is perfectly well known that union I'uQttlo and I ) . & M. men uro interested lu that sehomo. Will they glvo u * relief from tbo present brldjjo monopolv } That project promises imicticallv nothing for Otimha In comparison with 'tho bonotlts of this fffo brldgu nnd terminal plant It pro poses but to weld another chain upon us. This tchoruo is so guarded that if it is sold to others tbo purchaser mustabtdo by aud per form the agreements of the Contra1 railway company. My conversation with some of our uoit Informed cltUcus convinces mo that BU liujiortant feature ol tbo proposition is not generally understood , It Is true that the maximum brldgo charge for freight | j not fixed. I wab disappointed In not securing that But the maximum charge for freight mukt not bo con founded witn the churKca that ether railway companies must pay fur the use of thu bridge , the tlopot and depot grounds , and , Indeed , the wbola pronoiod. plunt , that is satisfactorily Ilxcd. If the parties cannot ngroa upaa the amount , it may lo uibilruud before our owu district | udio.i. Tint prorlslou takes affect liutno- atutoly , and not at tua end of flvo yean , at many suppose. This in too irreat fcaturo of tbo plan : To got other railroads into Omubu and Intcroitud lu the development of thu city , county uml stuto. In lieu of the maximum bridge rate , the chareoi for freight cro to bo just nud loa- lonublo from the brat , aud , after live yours , they , too , may bo arbitrated. Bo , even 01 to frelcht charges , wo have tbo woll-founrtec ho | > o thut after a Abort < erm they may bo operated ou Uiruotly by arbitration , ia adul tlon to the effect thnt coinpotlnR rallwaj * having the rltrht to use a free plant will uroly accomplish In reducing rates. How much better this is than to defeat the echomo iltogolhct , leaving ourselves without hope n the mlsornbla plight wo are now In. Let i KCt the railroads In. Lot us offset the 3lnlr bridRO , the O. & M , brldgo nnd the Jnlon Paciilc bridge , nnd make Omaha a center for railroads that will bring the cropi ind cattle of our own Rtato to our own city. uot us cot lese our last chanco. The greatest thing Sioux City has overdone done for lUelf was to lay out n free terminal point that cost 3,000,000 , In the heart ot tbo city. That Is what wo need above nil things. A word about tinhorncrs. Wo profess to punish the tinhorn gambler who ropes in tbo unsuspecting citizen , Why should wo do this nnd not punish those men who work against Iho public weal , in order to help the union Pacific , to the end that they mav advance tholr own fortunes ! Such nro tlnhornors. There Is nlso a class ot men who never paid a dollar ot taxes , who are now urglng < tba argument that taxes , must not bo increased. The Union Pacific bas a string on tboir jaw. They nro tlnhorners. Tboro is a class called "old fogies. " I have trained with tboso some myself , for I do not bcltovo , ordinarily , In giving awaythe public property to private parties. IJUt'I think I knoxv a good thing- when I see it. Had some ot the extremists oC this class had their way the last Urn years Omaha would now have a population of pos sibly 40,000 , whereas she hn 140,000. A word about the union depot. Hoxv is the best way to get It and tbo development-of that plant ! It is to vole bonds for another urldgo and depot. Do that and nothing will bo too good for you to bavo on Tenth street. You will got It with Thurston's robins Hying around the steeple. Hoxv many examples there are In recent history to orovo thnt com petition is n valuable promoter of the public good. If the Union Pacific can pot you lo keep out a competing depot plant , It xvtll continue the present ciilfshod. Why should It do morel It grows smaller every year. Once wo had a coxvshod ; now wo have n calf shod , nnd by and by it will filvo you a rat trap If you will only help it to keep Omaha down. Is there any possible room to doubt how to trot tno Union Pacific to Improve ! Hereto fore wn have given it presents and it has laughed nt us. Lot us try business for nxvhtlo. The same medicine will also bring the East Omaha bridge. Since writing the foregoing , I have road Governor Boya's letter. Hissuggojtlon that a certain per cent of the parumgs of the bridge , etc. , be paid into the public treasury is a most excellent ono If It were practicable. If such a provision were embodied ia the proposition , it appears qulto clear to my ralud that it would defeat the scheme , be cause it would prevent tbo borroxving ot money to carry out the project. Wo are obliged to look at both sldo.iif.wo really want to see this magnificent enterprise become - como an accomplished fact Wo must not look at our oxvn sldtiot the bargain only. 1 was much embarrassed in proposing umona- mruls bv this consideration ; it required l roat.delicacy and good Judgment to ilotor- mlnowhoro to draw the line between what vo ought to insist on nnd what wo would lllto to nave , keomncr in view the act that instating upon lee much meant to altogether kill the geese that wo bopod would lay the golden eggs. Looking nt the matter from ouo side only , Governor Boya's suggestion wai to mo quito captivating ; but wclphlnir it. impartially with the view of se curing tbcso great works which mean , if consummated , the building ot a great city tore , I believe it unfair and impracticable. Money lenders require gilt-odgo assurances , and if told that nn undeveloped s olio me , whoso earning capacity is an unknown quan tity and a speculation , must in any event di- vldo its earnings , they would xvlthout doubt lecllno to advance money upon tbo faith of ts value and income. _ Auv practical banker will see this. The proposition Is already so heavily burdened with conditions in favor of the publio that I fear its success Is en dangered. If tbo heavy capitalists of this city would bring forth their money bags and devote them to tbU great scheme BO that foreign capital would not have to bo sought , tticroby uniting patriotism with business sacacity , it would be possible to incorporate Governor Boyd's Idea. But docs Governor Boyd tnink tnoy will do this ? liavo tbov ever done anything of the kind ? If xvo wait until tboy do tboso. things for the elty. refrigeration of tbo sun , moon and stars will have taken place and Omaha will bo in colt sloraco and all of its Inhabitants sticking up out of it frozen stiff In tholr tracks with amazement and other things. Omaha is des titute of great men ; it bas not one , no not one. Therefore , kind friends , lot us go to the support of tboso among' us who are ready and willing to undertone great measures lor tbo development of our rlty. Let us help all we can to make this project a success , for that means the resurrection of Omaha and tbo upbuilding of n great city. In conclusion : To tboso who Knoxv mo best , I think 1 need not , speak of my motives , but to others I beg to say that I am wholly disinterested except ns a citizen who has the welfare of the city , county and state ( for the welfare of all is involved ) nt heart. All statements to tbo contrary are destitute of truth. Jonx D. HOXVE.
