The Railroad meeting held in this
city OH last Friday night, demonstra-
ted to the most incredulous that the
solid men of BrOwnville are actively
alive to the importance of the O., M.
& P. Railroad as a great national thor
oughfare, and as a short competing
line for local business to and from
eastern markets.
1t was not assembled to hear speak
ers from abroad nor those from home,
but for actual, straightforward bust
ness, having reference to the growth
and prosperity of our own city and
county. There was but d opinion as
to what should be done. The mode
and manner of doing it alone received
the attention of the meeting until a
late hour.
The details were at length satisfac-
torily settled, and hereafter there will
be unanimity of action, all having
but one end in view, the early con-
structiOn Of a road running west from
BrownviIle via Tecumseh, Beatrice,
across the Little Blue, and from
thence out to and up the Republican
with perhaps a branch to some point
on the U. P. r. r.
The ropes are being very successful
" and industriously laid which have so
far drawn the powerful influence of
the Pennsylvania Central from all
other lines, and concentrates it on the
short line through from Quincy to
Brownville and thence west as above
indicated.
The county of Adams, in which
Quincy is situated, has recently voted
500, 600 to draw that Pennsylvania
interests into Quincy. They have so
far succeeded as to stop all negotia-
tons in other directions, and are GER
tain to secure the active corporation
Of that company on our line.
Let every man interested in a Rail-
road from BrOwnville west, rest as
sured that these facts are correct ; that
the O., NJ. & p. Company are a live
company, full OF energy and ably
differed; that they are constantly
watching the board, and not only
know what the great Railroad Kings
want, but have the grit and DISPOSE
ton to meet those wants with as little
delay as possible.
The city of BrownvilIe will be call
ed upon to vote 500, 900 to aid this en-
terprise at an early day, and we ex-
pect that she will show her full conf
dence in the immediate construction
of this great national thoroughfare by
a unanimous vote for the proposition.
Earnest and energetic work is now
what is most needed.
Nebraska advertiser., 1869-11-18
Financially Speaking.

The Omaha Herald contains a sug-
gestive leader on the financial prospect
in which we find many complaints
because the National Debt is being re-
duced, and finding in this the reason
why the money market is stringent,
wheat and corn of but little value, and
business generally in a languishing
state-"all because Grant and Bout
well must tax down the public debt
One short year ago, with Andy John
son at the head of the nation, the pub
lie debt just about held its own, in
creasing slightly one quarter and de-
creasing as much the next. The
Democratic officials and stumpers
were asking for a change of admins
tration, declaring that the public debt
never could be reduced except under
a Democratic administration. Then
the Republican party were charged
with all the evils of which the coun-
try suffered because they did not re-
duce the public debt, and now they
are equally culpable because by strict
economy the expenses of the Gov
eminent do not equal the revenue by
several millions of dollars per month.
Since that time the revenue tax has
been reduced, and many articles for
mally taxed are now upon the free
list, and still Republicans practice
such strict economy in the discharge
of the affairs of the Government, that
they find it necessary to leave a bal
lance on the credit side of the ledger.
doubt not Congress will deem it
wise and proper TO further reduce the
tax on many articles, and perhaps,
send others 10 the free list. We believe,
however, that the stringency in our
monetary affairs IS attributed to other
We continue to buy heavily
IF foreign manufactured goods inn
Dortation of articles which ought to be
made a thome all still arriving; usual
these were paid for in wheat, corn
md cotton. Wheat and corr is not
low wanted much of their cotton
hey now receive from other sources,
md so the country is drained of its
,onds and specie to pay for these for
ign goods, and as a consequence the
money market is stringent, the price
# grain is low and business is dull.
Ne are apt to shift the results of our
.wn follies upon the controlling pow
rs rather than by correcting our own
curse, confess them. We conjecture
hat the aim of the Herald was not so
much to correct what it claims 20 be
wills, as to appeal to the prejudices of
he unthinking against the party in
over.

the outside voters of the county over
rule our preferences?

ought to be our County Judge, for we
hold that the voters of the Sd District,
should have decided this question,
independent ofoutsideinfuence. We

At your earliest leisure please to re-
ply.
Respectfully Yours, 1I
