In the Herald of August 3, 1866, its @ rote as followe: The clection will take place on Monday, which wil result in guns- antee £30,000 and $40,000, if r(c meet Mr. Blair's demands Hp n us for the bensfit of the ter- us of the Chicago and hwestern road at a point on the r tank cpposite this city.

Tn the Herald of Octo- ber 30th, 1875, i s editor writen: Much has been sa1d of the burdens of taxation arising from railrcad debt. % 4 % The facts are that these bur- dens of trxation arising in our boned debt incurred in and of railways are a more bagatelle oompared to what they havo been fmagived to bo by a great many of our citizens. Taxation for the payment of interest on these bonds is but » small fraction of the burdens upon the people. A mouth lster Dr. Miller furtner explained the Herald's position on rail- way bonds, when he said: We stand by the interests of Omaha through good and through evil report. We know that these interests are in- separably bound up with those of the Ulion Pacific railroad, and no amoust of personsl sbuse or vituperation aball drive us from that position. We neither shun nor shirk the issue which the position imposes. On October 30, 1875, it will be seen from the above, that Dr. Miller's oninious on bonde had not changed. The fact of the matter is that Dr. Miller's views of the efficiacy of bonds ed torailwsy bonds. What- elita corporations, at the ex- an are confis ever b pente of the people, meets the entire approval of the editor of the Herald What benefits the peoplo at the ex- pense of no one, is an entirely differ- ent matter, It has taken Dr. Miller fourtesn years to come to tho conclu- sion that the least taxed & communi- ty is, the more prosnerous it becomes. Heshould have thonght of this econ- omical axiom in '66, considored its weight in ‘68 and pondered over its truth in 1 At all these times bis personal interest, however, hap- pened to lie in a different direction, and Geo. L. Miller never permits anything to interfore with perscnal in- terest. As far s the bonds for a new and much needed court house sre con- cerped, they will not incresse taxa- tion, becanss the present sinkingfund will be amply sufficient to provide for the annual interest on account of the bonds already taken up, and which will be taken up this year by the board of commissioners. The connty needsa new court house, and must have ope within five years at the farthest.

Nebrasks is overwhelmingly repub- lican. Garfield and Arthur and a ma- jority of the republican state ticket will carry this state by fully twenty thousand mojority. Tt would bs an everlasting di party of & if & corrupt monop- y sticroey like E. K. Valent would be endorsed fora second term by the same majority that is given to the pa ic stctesman and soldier that heads our naticnal ticket. It is high time that the fifty thoussnd re- pablican voters of Nebraska should resent the insult heaped on them by the renomination of Valentine as represeutstive of the largeet constitu- eucy in the Usi ed States. This can be most effectually done by scrate the name of Valentine aud substi ting that of Thomas Msjors. Mr. Majors has represented Nebraska in Congress for a brief term creditably. He exhibited his active sympathy with the producers of this etate aud his in- dependence of monopoly dictation Ty voting for the Reagan bill regulating inter siato commerce. He 1s a stal wart republican who served his country at the head of tke first Nebraska regiment duriag the entire war. He pot off an empty compliment by the Iate state convention by being nomin- tingent congressmen. Now thers is no euch cffice as contingen congressman and Govor ~ omitted that office from his election proclamation. The this state should convert this compli- ment into & rcbuke of Valentine. Let them scratch the name of Valen- tineand substitute tae nameof Thomas Majors. The name of Majors will be printed on !l the republican tickets. It will be very easyto scratch the name of Ve ebelow the head ‘‘for congressman,” and ecratch the word eontingent above the name of Msjors. This is not only perfectly legitimate, but eminently just. By voting for T1jors you vote for a staunch repub- lican who doesn’t wear a brass collar. By scratohing Valentine you express your emy hatie disapproval of jobbery, back pay grabbing and the prostitu- a high offics for the boneSit of railroed monopolies. Farmers of Nebracka you have a great opportunity for enfo vights and protecting your interests, If you fail to de 55 now you will never have an bonest and able representa- tive in congress, and youalono will be to blame. brs e ated for o republicans of tion ed Nebraska es two years ago ‘road committee of 1s and coppers of e i mair the senat the mor eponsiblo 7 tion tuudicg to p ag-in:t excortion and diseri ow he wauts to be e ofeat of il le; Jorsed for a No republican cau vote stultifying ming a party strated by mo- o ple. doubtless be elected but he must be rebuked for L3 dishonesty.
