So far as the newspapers are concerned
every one who has read them tnoivs that
there Irni been no attack by vhem upon either
be advocates of the proposition or
those opposed. Jt lias been charges
in public meetings that the newspapers re
fuse to cive the public any inlurmatlos

meeting at which l.was noi presentl nmtold
That the charge was openly made that wo
bud boncbt up the newspapers , aad that cer
tain newspapermen interested in the
JsebrasKft Central eompuny. 1 did not cnn-
tidcr it nocesEury to .answer charges of this
sort , but I fina that because they have not
been denied they ure being used as nn argu
ment and the truth of same asserted. I ,
therefore , mate this public statement , viz :
Neither Tnc BEE cor the World-Herald has
received one oollar , or the pronise of it , for
their Influence in this matter , but on thenon-
Irary they have published without
choree column after column on both
Rides of the question for the
pnrpose of giving the puolic the most
complete and full information. Not one line
of paid matter has appeared duiinp tbis entire -
tire discussion except the necessary leeol
publications , for which tbey would bare re
ceived the same compensation had they been
against instead of in favor of the voting of
tbe bonds , except the half pace advertise
ment which appeared in the Sunday's is
sues and iviiich was published as an adver
tisement ut our request without solicitation ,
because "we felt it would tie an imposition

large space Iree. No one interested in any

airoctly in tbe JCebrtsta Central entorprii-o.

quantities ol free advertising In the dailv

on the AVronjrTrack.
"Anti-bond Voter" seeks to deceive the
public by representing lhal the phrase "free
' " hr dfje , " " which hns been used so often by the
_ blicpress in referring to the needs of
_ jnaha , means a bridge which the railroad
companies might use wilhoul compensation.
That is-not thtt tense in which it is used at
all. No one expects either the city ,
county , or any corporation to build
a bridge which the railroads may
use ivilhoul payment. Tbe trouble is that
tbe oxvncrs of the present monopoly will not
let them use their bridge et oil , but Insist
uuon exchanging business with tbe Iowa
roads ot "Dillonvllle" and making every pas
senger destined to or pomp from Omaha and
points west of the MUsissiopl river chance
cars at the Council Blufls transfer. Ho
would like the public to understand lhat the
Union Pacific railroad is perfectly willing to
ullow all railroads to cross its briage , but
such is not tbe case Tbe luct is , tbat they
are now trying In tbo courts to drive those
out wbohuve been pcrmitled by a former nd-
' ministration lo come in.
1 If yon think the Nebraska Central does
not propose a free bridge , and also a free
1 terminal fyBtom. including a free passenger
- depot , and a free railroad 100 milrs long , east
of tbe Missouri river , rend tbe propositions.
You will see how utterly false all statements
1 upon these points are.

Anti-Bond Yotor'B arenment with respect
to thcratos only confirms what I bare
upon the tnaxiroum rate question.
T11 Ureak Up the I'oi.l.
If there is a nrantic oool of railroads con-
trolllnc this % vestcrn country , a * stated , the
way to break it down or cause it to lower its
rates is to rlng roads into tbo territory
which are not cow.sacurinp u portion of the
business Ana let tbem compete for iu Tbe
Nebraska Central proposes to do that very
thine. Anil-Bond Voter eviflonUy repre
sents some corporation which desires to
maintain tbe stain tjuo. It Is not necessary
to build n railroad to Chicago to connect with
roads that ere nolnow in the pool ; tbey can
bo reached by n much snorter line. "Tbe
great and bluer legal contest between giant
corporations , " to which he refers , tvu
broupht about oy the bad faith oi tbe Union
Pacific , which refused to stand by its solemn
oblicauons , noi only to tbe railroad com
panies , but with tbe city of Omaha.
Tbe fact mat Omaha shouted and howled
in favor of tbe Iowa roads shows lhat the
people understand the real trouble and can't
be deceived by tbe cry of the friends of tbe
Union Pacific tbal lo secure lower rates is
our only object. In all ibe alscassions at
that time nol one relorrnce was nmdo to
rates , but the cry % vns , "L t the roads come
! n as .you "hare uereed lo. " No one expected
lower rales , bnl Uiey did expect and demand
coed faith , and wanted to see u union depot
in Omaha , not -Dillctivlllo : and their
f reigbt dcllverod promptly without delays at
Council Bluffs.
What is this same Union Pacific Railroad
compony doing now to further this sumo
policy of koeoing up the burs ! It is Tnain-
tainlnc that iecal ficht in tbo supreme court
to annul its -written contracts ; and it sol
emnly proposing that In consideration of
waiving the doltrerly of fl5UOaa subsidy

and waive the giving of n bono of fJOOOJ3

-which i. was agreed should be given us nn
earnest of good faith when it made its last
promise to tlloxv all raCroadsto enter Omaha
jiurt its proposed new union depot upon fair

these conditions , and suppose tbo" Union
Pacific wins its Jighl in the courts ; suppose
the Nobrastn Cenlrnl or come similar scheme
is not carried out , will not tbs roads wnich

of yore ! What will their ULion depot

and the B. & M. are to be permitted to use it !
AVlthin the J't'ople'n Control.
Anti-Bonl Voter's argument with respect
lo the Iowa road and ibe use of 't by other
corporations nn3 the number of lines which
muy"bo brougbl In over it , falls flat because
be misrepresents the facts. Read the
propositions nnd you will sea lhat tbe
entire 300 miles must by the terms of
tbo proposition ba opsn to the use
of all railway-companies upon fair and equal
terms , the compensation to bo fixed by three
of your district Judges acting as arbitrators.
They do not come in over existing lines , be
cause they knowtbalthey will -unaoleto
pot across tne river and into nnd through
the city of Omaha upon .any fair terms or ut
n reasonable cost , and because none of the
various Iowa lines will permit Ibom to run
over their track at a fair rental , it being
their policy , as well as that of Ihe Union
Pacilic , to'ireep out competition ns much ns
possible ( and there being no way of com
pelling tbem to do so ) . Tn order to venf y
our fctat.cmcnts lo the public it is
not necessary to show tbat by
building 100 miles of road wo can
reach half a dozen lines of railway , but we
can clearly show that the building of tbat
amount of froa railroad will make it such an
easvmatter Jor that number of railconas to
reach our lines thai there would be no doubl
ubout Ibcir tukinr advantage of so favorable
.an opportunity lo reach a city such as
Omuha. "We must , however , connect with
at leasl two of these roads and permit tbem
to run tbeir trains over this line across tbe
briage and into Omnba before we
uau secure the (100.000 installment
of the city subsidy. It is plain to
be seen why -Anti-Bond Voter
signs aiisllcious name to his article. No
one who cared for bis reputation would so
delsborately misrcpresenl the terms and
conditions of our propositions over his own
signature. He says that should any-one of
B dozen roads hacpon to build . branch line
into Council BluBs , the Nooraska Central
could Demand the 1100,000 bonds. Tbe fact is
tbe proposition provides lhat tbe Nebraska
Central must purchase the deoot grounds
nnfl build tbe 100 miles of railroad in Iowa
before it can receive any ol thesa bonds. In
another paragraph he claims that be could
make n handsome real estate speculation by
buying this tract of ground , and again de
liberately misrepresents because it would be
impossible lo secure this (103,000 without
complying with both ol tbe above condi
tions. IND one would be crazy enourh to
attempt real estate speculation by brlunng
forward a railroad project which would im
mediately nave tno effect of cnhancinc
valuer , und any well Informed person knows
tbal it would oe impassible to acquire all
this ground without condemning at least a
portion of it , and lhat a title acquired by
condemnation is merely an easement and
good only while the property is used for rail
road purposes.

The fact Is , tnat the ? 2T > 0.KK ( ) city subsidy is
given to aid tbe Nebraska Central in the ac
quirement of its depot grounds and in the
erection of a H1KOJJ ) union depot , and 1 sub
mit that in view of the fact thai Omaha bos
shown Us willingness io give f 150,01)0 for a
Union Pacific-B. & M. depot at Tenth
street , alter having civon the large
tract of land on which It is to be
located , thut this is not a large subsidy even
if the proposition did not include tbe Iowa
railroad. Tbe reason that tbe phrase "have
planned" instead of "do propose" was used
was that it being somewhat doubtful
wbetber tbe city ooula legally give a subsidy
lo aid n railroad within another state , it was
thought best to avoid any possibility ot some
one lite an anti-bond voter from enjoining the
delivery of tbe bonds after tbey bad wten
ii-nrt. Tim nubile , however , islustnswell
protected , because uot one dollar of tbe bonds
can be secured unless tbelOU miles of rail
road is olfco actually constructed.

tool enough lo build a tBO,000 union depot ,

grounds \vitbout providing a way to cross

must be carried out If part of it is. Toe

The two propositions tbe city and conutr

such conditions , would bare been void.
.About Uulldlut : Other Jlrldgrs.
I deny tbat t&ere * re several other corpor
ations tuut are anxious to build another
bridge and terminal system. There is nut -
one. No , not one. Tbe Union Pacific and
B. & .M. anner nreteods to bo anxious to
build a free bndge and terminal system ana
its paid agents are working with micht and
main against our propositions They suc
ceeded in flolaying tbe action of tbe Board of
County Commissioners for w eK on the rep
resentation thai Ihey would oSei something
belter , but have they done ill No. I am
told that one of tbe boomerangs thai is yet
to be put forth before the election to deceive
.Ihe public is that thev will build ti bridge
and do all we have proposed without a sub
sidy I tave been informed by those Inside
of tbeir own party that they Intended to ask
$1,000,009 for their bndpe anfl terminal
svstem , which are planned upon a "cheap
John" scale , end to further tbeir real
estate speculations and which crosses
streets , street car and railroalllncs at rraae
and without reference to the Interests ot the
public. 11 tbey have a better plan than ours
why have thev been nshamed to show U !
One of tboir directors , who , by the way , has
Shidthalil almost took bis breath away
when lie road in the capers thai eny set of
men proposed to ast | 7T > 0,03D as a donation
from Omaha nnd Donclas county to
aid any enterprise , told o reputable
citizen during the discussion before
the commissioners that if our proposl-
lion was not submitted inside of two weeks
it never-would be submitted at all. It was
not submitted for nearly throe weeks , but
his better Disposition Old not materialize.
Why doesn't he tell the public that hi engi
neer has lold him lhat 11 is impracticable to
build a bridge at the point solectsd by his
company because It is too far down to bed-
rocii. The rock under the river slopes lo the

Where is the racir when you get over to
the luterstatejlocation" ! Why do they say
that they will build a bridge In that impos
sible location ! Don't it help to show if it
was not already mode clear by the mutual
interests and associations of the parties that
tbe talk about building a bridge b.r them is
ouly a Ijlnff in the inteiest of the present
monopoly.
% Vlial Some Talker * Are Sajlnc-
There ure others who have schemes ( but
not one that would be of any special benefit
to Omu.uawhich this project interferes
with ; nnd that is why certain parties are
fighting so nard against the bonds. One
man , who has bsen advertised for the last
ton years as ready to put $10D,003 into a rail
road to tbe northwest and lias made repeated
efforts to pot some one else to go in with him
without success , is now fighting the bonds
and always winds -up his story by saying
that be will build a bridge at Florence for
$ J03OOQ.
How could any roaos nownt Council Blufls
use such a bridge ? Another who ( is said to
have ) traded his influence for railroad sup
port next fall asiied the commissioners not
very lone ago if they thought a proposition
to vota $503,000 to aid ( him ) in building a
tall-end of road to the northwest without
any bridge , could be curried. Jais solicitude
for the interests of the public now
will not permit him tovote such i
tremendous tax upon them for this enter-
prize. Be is paying out tne funds for the
opposition. Does any one believe that it is
his own money ! Is It not rather presumable
the funds of tbe old monopolies !
Ha is also charging that tbe voting of
these bands will stop tbBTOtinp of "bonds for
school purposes for the next ten years ,
-when he must know "that"the school district
is a separate corporate body , and the voting
of these bonds would have ao bearing what
ever upon tbe subject.
Anti-Bond Voter evinces. & jrreat deal of
solicitude lor the public credit in face of
the fact that park bonds recently sold at a
premium of C.CS per cout while this same
proposition was pending and a time when
every one cancelled that the bonds would
carry. He also loses sight of the fact lhat
the oonds do not become B city debt until
dolivorea by tbe trustee after they are
earned , and that only one-third of them ure
city oonds , while the other two-third are
county bonds , idtbe county can safely issue _
Jour times tbe amount asked without im
pairing its credit.
A few words about the Nebraska Central
in tbe past. Jso , 1 will postpone that for an
other article , as this is already too long. I
will say , however , that those who know the
facts know tuut we do not owe Omaha or
Douglas county any apology on that score ,
and I will show why before election dav.
All charges that -vie were at that time in
collusion with any railroad eithertheHocc
Island , the Milwaukee or the Union Pacific
are utterly false. In conclusion 1-desire to
say that if I nm not greatly mistacen the
"bundle of falsehoods and misrepresentations
published by anti-bond voters is largely the
product of the fertile brain ol that noble
friend ol Omaha who runt the political
end of a certain corporation at the lower end
of Farnam street , and who said when the
Nebraska Central prooosition was psndlnc
in ISilt that they wore willing to see the
bonds voted because they were confident
they could defeat the building of a bridge
afterwards.
That they Imew what the possibilities in
that line were bas been shown by subse
quent evonu ; that they t > oe that tuii.it
planned so that it is likely to succeed is be.-t
illustrated by ihelr frantic efforts to defeat
It. There is one thine , however , that rather
stumps me. j. e. : If it is the party , why is
ho so afraid that we might sell out to ( his
patron eulnt ) Mr. Gould ! J. H. DCMOKT.
