The fleruM been silent upon the suhjM for many days. Its friend aud enemies have been naturally surprised at its anomalous position oa an interest of eonreedeJ Importunes) to everybody concerned, and it would aurprined nt iteelfif it did not stand lelf-arrredilcd with an honeH purpose to do all in its power to serve the bet welfare of thia people. This surprise ill, with nianr.

amount to astoniahme nt, when reversisg its position oa this question, it now opposes what it lias earnestly advo. cated. Without surrendering it position on the Narrow.Oaiige on its nierrita, or questioning the good MiotiTe of the gentlemen ho inaugurated it, we aay to the people of this citr, on snd all, tint their bent welfare and safety require that this proposition fur bonds shall be ruled down. THE LOUP BRIDGE. Some of our friends in the country think it verj Unjust in the County Com luissioncrs to go ahead and complete this bridge, alleging that too much money has alrcaJy been expended for the benefit of Columbus while the county out side has been neglected and de prived of its share of the road fund of the county.

If thdy will take the pains to examine into this matter, they will Snd that such is not the case on the contrary, the records show that there have been made unreasonable as well as unnecessary ex-jienditurcs in laying out Dads and building bridges in tho country whero scarce ly any travel has been. We have said in another article that King li Son cannot build tlit extcosiou to the I-otip bridge under their present contract with the Commissioners, owing to tho informality in awarding this contract. In that article wo simply referred to tho irregularity in the matter, but by no means contended that the Loup bridge ought not to he finished it should be completed and completed a once. That the Platte and Loup bridges should be kept in pood repair is patent to every intelligent mind when looked at in its proper light. It is to the materia interest of Columbus, that Butler and Polk counties have access to it, anil this can only be had through thefo bridges.

A very false notion has obtained, with a certain class of men iu this county, in regard to the identity of interests between the town and country, and to correct this wrong idea, is tho aim of the present article. This class to whom we refer, raise the cry of partiality, robbing the county, Ac, for the benefit of the town whenever tho question of these bridges are alluded to, and we are astonished as well as mortified at this pre vailing disutisfaction on the part of these men, when, on the contrary, they should not only view it in a different light, but actually contribute to their utmost to build up "Columbus and advance its interests. Why a different at. .4. 4 feeling should exist in tins matter is so very plain, that to explain it, is a presumption on the ordinary intelligence of any man.

Is there a titan in Platte county with so little businoss experience and knowledo of the relative of property of a town or city, and property ten and twenty miles in the country, who ill arragantly opposo a measure which seeks to further tho interest of the principal town or city of bis county, and do so, as we suppose, on the grounds that lie is taxed for a thins that docs not afford him any advantages. Hy the simplest rule In business, however, he may learn, that tho Inaiu contributory source of his burden hifdi tax.es arises from the business depression and valuless property of tho town or city which bo has helped to kill through his ppoMtion to every measure that have drawu to it capital and population. If, Henry, Becker, Coolidge, Morris-sey or any busiiic- man in Columbus does a $100,000 business a year, St is because the demand for this business have Icon created, and without these demands the Value of liis property, whether it consists of goods, buildings or grounds, is depreciated seeordingly. If his business falls from 100 percent, to SO per the valuation of his taxablo property falls 50 per cent The stock of goods, building and lot of Henry St which is worth to them, hero in Columbus, $50,000, and on which they pay $100 or $000 tax, would not be worth $25,000 tweuty uiilt north or south of Columbus, as a business investment, where no demand exists. It is on this same principle that Columbus preciuct pays nearly one half of available taxes of tlie entire county.

As tlie principle town or city of a county, or section of country, imrcov iu population and lu.4ne", not only d.e the bnrdc of taxntiou Woine lighter, but the value of the lands and olhar property urrBndin increases in the same ratio.

Hyde Hutch Musio In the Air L. narrigan, Chief of Police He resigns. Southern Paclflo Railroad Conven tion A Grand Reception ten-dered the Delegates, From our at. Lull puclI orreoponrii-nt. 'Who is a L'ood man? lie who re spects the decrees of the legislature, and bows to, yields obedience to every posi tive law and every moral "Who then is food He who caro fully observes tho senate's wise decrees nor ever twirvea from the known rules of justice and the laws." Had Horace lived in this our day, and perohiitiee bo afforded nn opportunity to learri of the machinntions of the WHISKEY RING, well might he exclaim; "Wby do we sim with eager strife At things beyond the marks of life? Creatures alas I whose Donated power Is but the blessing of an hourl "How the mighty have falleu 1" This phrase is being repeated by men of every shade of opiui ever since the indict ment of the members of the King.

The trial of Jno. It. McDonald, the moving spirit in the Rogues Gallery, is creating no littlo excitement here. The case is being tried before Judge Treat of tie United States Court. As I write, the evidence for tho State is all in, and by way of parcnlhasis let me say, it is most Conclusive as to his guilt.

Frauds of the most stupendous character have been perpetrated, and SIcDonald was the head light, who, ignit fntuu like deluded good and bad men, and made them sharers in his infamous schemes. If I am not much mistakcu he will sojourn for some time to come iu the petietentiary. Gen. Sherman And a host of romi-ncnt and popular citizens will be introduced by the defense. No doubt they will all testi'y to his (McDonald's) good character before, and during the war.

What docs that avail him now lie that breaks one of tho ten command-incuts, break 8 all. No matter how honest and square a man may have been for five, ten, nyo or fifty years, if, at. some time tho hist day perhaps of his life he steals, that one set constitutes him a thief, and he should be punished for it. If on conviction, crime be not punished, because of some legal technical point, then better blot out the penalty from the statute book aud make trials "a mockery, a delusion and a snare." After a while the country wiJ have rid itself of tho boldest nnd u.ost reckless set of scoundrels which ever disgrnci a free land. McDonald and Joyce have their photographs in many a city in the Wert, and for tlte- Sake of Justice nnd hmnanit Yj it is to be hoped the govern ment will show theiii no mercy; but mete out Iti nllopnthin doses the full measure of the law.

PEiis-oNAi. JnvnxAt.isSt. It is really sad to see the csrhinob grade of the male set en vol vid in personal Piieotintois threatening' 'coffe and pistols for and 'Tina shots" at eighteen paces, kt. but to know that two geutleinsn whoso mission it is ''to create and foster public opitrons ic and to elevate the morals of the people, to know that this class cf our citizens S'i far forget themselves as to bring their quarrels into tho press, and use such pet names as "Scoundrel," "Blackmailers." ie is something f-wful. McWiHiatu Hyde, chief editor of the "llepublican," pays his cotnp'imetits for (l.o hundredth time to Hon.

Milson Hutchius, chief editor of the times, and member of the legis'ature, something after the style of first class scolds. Hutch ing comes out in reply, and in defense uses the same weapons as his bitter opponent; so you must not bo suppriscd to hear of another duel. Neither Hyde or Hutcbins aro looked upon as coward ly. There is "music in the air" verily. Would that it were the sweet sounds of some soft melody betokening peace aud harmony, rather than the ringing noise cf the rifle, or Wesson, which is always a sign of wsr.

citiEr IIAKHIOAN has resigned, to the regret of every law abiding man in St. Louii. In one of my letters to the IiA, I stated that Mr. a member of the do'eitite force, tried to out llaritgan by cliarg Ilia, could not be proved; but instead of succeeding, St Hoi himself as disi. issed from the force.

It appears th it Harti-gan had his mind made up months sgo to rein. but bcaiiog that es wanted to play a lew trick, stood bis ground manfully, and now after triumphing over bis euetuy, resigns his position as chief. The Boar of Police (Vm-wriMoncrs bare tempor-rily appointed W. K. IIEXSLEY, EDITOR.

CHARACTERISTIC EFFORTS AT REFORM. The (VtiimiMoor have fixed tlie bond ofthe treasurer at $50,00,0 double the amount of wliut it liu been. Hummer cad pre bonds to thij amonnt just readily as lie could for 825,000, but that ii not the question. Thia "reform" board intended to thoroughly barricade eTery powililo avrnuu to corrujition. Tbi "reform" board have in this matter io all othera howod their determination to not go outside of the law in their official supervision and controll of the county affairs.

The law Says: The County lYecsurcr shall give bond in such amount as the County Commissioners shall determine, but in no case ball the penal sum of any such bond be lets than ten thousand dollars, nor more than twice the probable amoiint that will be in bis bands at any one time. Just bow this "reform" board could arrive at the concluaioD that there will proballybo that amount ($50,000) in the Treasurer'a hands at any one time, for years toomo a mytery. What an almost superhuman strain on their financial faculty, this deep dive into the world of impowibilities must have been. They certainly eou'd not have anticipated this plethoric state of things in our "county treasury, from the history of their own official career. If they have, the trcnaury under a few more such ad-ministration, an this, would be as secure against having its empty ault-i rifled by a treasurer with bonds to the amount of 10 cents as at 80,000.

AN IRREQULARITT. There seems to be, with some, a dissatisfaction about the way the contract was let fur building the extension to the Loup bridjre, assorting that the contract was not swarded to King Son, according to the law, which requires that all such contracts fur laying out public roads, and erecting bridges ou same shall be by advertising for proposals. This the Commissioners failed to do, and hence the irregularity. The custom heretofore with our Commissioners in matters ef this public nature, lias been to let tho contracts to the lowest bidder, proposals fur doing the same having first been adverted in some newspaper published in the county. If, as claimed by some, the contract fur the building of the bridge was given to King A Son without observing the usual rule, they could not build the bridge, and if they did, the county would not be responsible for the payment, inasmuch as wilful disregard of the law by the Cotmuiiwio tiers would null snd void the obligation.

Or, if, on the other hand, King Son should claim that they Were acting under the authority ef the Commiioncrs, still that would not make the county responsible, from another well settled principle in law, that a man himself must know whether or not he is following the law and is not legally excusable for bis wrongful acts on the grounds that he supposed he was acting under the proper authority. The law axiom, iijnijranlhf leyi nenumrm txrutnt, may, and does, in sonic instances work a hardship, but on general principles when applied to human conduct, it is the safett rule, as it tends to tnnko luen more circumspect and reluctant about entering into combinations to perpetrate their wrongs upon society. The Couimitwioners can get right on the track in this matter, only by reminding this coutract with Kiug Son, snd swarding it to thf lowest bidder a the law requires and has been their custom. THE NARROW OATJOE. Tlie Omaha Herald has changed its pitiou on the Narrow-Gauge pmjnrt, and now, like wise man who sees his error in time to remedy the evil, advises lb prople of Omaha and IVuglas county to cait their votes against the bonds.

The Herald, crhaps, has beeoino convinced of the fact that the Narrow-Gauge railroad scheme, so far as its i influence on Omaha and her future is concerned, could never be a material factor ia building it up, and consequently thuse local benefits to Oniahs, to which the Herald always refered, in speaking of tlie Narrow-Gauge, now seem too remote and uncertain. We have frequently paid to parties here in Columbus, when ulludihg to this subject, that the Herald was not fallowing ita own convictions when it advocated the Nsrrcw 'Gauge project it was imoBist(iit with the ei-periencc and soundness of that paj to attempt to maintain a jtostition unsupported by reason or expediency, neither of which lay at the bottom tXtLi mLcmc.
