THE DAILY BEE E. ROSEW ATER: EDITOR! Haxiox easlly wo the great soull- ing match with Layoock, the Aus- tralien, defeating him by five lengths. Tax tolls upon the Erie canl are about to be redaced. This in the oplaion of the railroad managers is an instance of “ anwise legislation. E—— Axv one who oan see s special prov- fdence in the death of General Myers and tho appointment of Hazen to the weather bureau is welcome to his be- Tief, —_— Mn Isermsows, president of the State Farmers' Alliance, hadn't resd Mr. Touralin's article when he wrote ME. TOUZALINS SIX REASONS. Every member of the legislatare before entering upon his duty takes a solemn oath to support the constitu- tion of the United States and the constitation of Nebraska. This cath every member is in duty bound to take without mental reservation. Every member who takes this oath and fails to comply with the require- ments of the constitation to the best of bis ability is a perjurer just as much 28 a man who accepts & bribe or & promise of & bribs in consideration of avote he may give. Now the con- stitution of Nobraska_ cxpressly dis- ects the legislature to pass a law prohibiting the pooling of parallel lives of railwsy. It directs them to enact laws to compel raflroad man- agers to report the carnivgs of their rosds. Tha constitation expreesly his letter about oapital being frighten- | ;,jcqy it the duty of the legislatars to ed away by rallrosd legislation, but he hit the nsil on the head for all that. Taz populstion of Ireland has de- creased by no ess then 2,791,631 slnce 1840, No stronger proof of the gross cruelty prectised upon that country could be prodused. Wholessle emi- gration e the last resort of an outraged, plandered, and down-trodden people. of Massachusetts, is ‘msking an insufferable ass cf himself in sttempting to maguetizs the de- funot Ponesboom. What if Senator Schurtz did refuse to provide & gov- ernment position for Tibbles. He will be supported in this refasal by every one who hes ever had sny deal- ings with Nebraska's nmataral born journalist. Sccravsat is Tteelf another name for agrarianiem. _If carrled to ita- logical results, it will end lo & soclal up heaval In Nebrasks jast as It spent ite foroes In France,amid the lurid horrors of the commane. I carried to 1ts logicsl result agran- anism in Nebraska will end In the suipension of every rogus who sslls out his constituency fn a legislatareat the end of & rops. Aud when the rogues who corrupt legielatures are provided with zebra saits and set at work bresking stone, the farmers, mechavics and merchants will have no diffioulty in securlng proper protection from legalizsd highwsy robbery. Tt is interesting sud most lsugha- ble, erys Mr. Touzalin, to observe how quickly an “sntl-monopolist” csn be usde—a dissppoitment in politios, & grufl answer from an uncivil railroad agent, the refusal of & or some such trific will, in & day's notics, kin dlo an snti-monopoly fire In & dis pointed aspirant! 1f che ratlroads give up making sen- provide suitable penaltiesto prevent unjust discrimipation, extortion snd other abuzes by railway companies. Acd now comes Mr. Tonzelin, general! mansger of the B. & M. railroad in Nebrasky, and exhorts the legislatare to commit perjury by ask- ing them not to pass any laws what- soever that willinany way comply with the requirements of the constitution upon railrosds. Mr. Touzalin gives six ressons why every member of the legislature should perjure himself and g0 back to hla constitusnts branded forever as aninfamous ssoundrel. Me. Touzalin's first reason for advi- sing the lezislatare to commit parjury in ““becsase the ralroads are the larg- est property owners in the state and more interested than individuals can be in preventing ise. legislation which always harms.” This is cortainly & startling proposition. The owners of the railroads in Netras- ka ars citizens of Massachusetts and New York, and they have the inso- lencs to demand that the laws of Ne- braska shall be framed in their ioter- est, as against the interast of the peo ple of this state. A fow years sgo it was to the interest of these owners of Nebraska property to shirk their taxes upon millions of acres of land donated tothem by the general government and the state. The paople of Nebras- ka eought redress through their repres- ‘entatives in congress by the enactment ofalaw compelling the railroads to pay ‘taxes upon all theirlands. Sach alaw was psssed by the lower house of congress, bat the railrosd managers succeeded in strangling tho bill through their tools 1o the United States senate. resort the peopls of Nebraska went in- g Asalast to the courts and spent over’ §100,000 for attorneys servloes to securs a decree of the United States supreme court to compel theso tax shirking monopolies to pay their taxes. No doubt Mr. Tcuzalin thought that the land tax bill was an act of “anwise legislation.” The lords and barons of Eagland who own three-fourths of the ators, congressmen, and governors—if they do away with passes to legisla- tors, judges, state officers and private oltizans, if thelr agants are compelled to trest patrons of the roads clvilly and respectfully, then, sccording to Mr. Touzalin, there will be no anti-mo- nopolists. In the langusge of Gerald Massey, Why don't God Klll the devil —snd why don't the railway magnates stop making autl-monopolists? —_— Tar court of common pless of Lake county, Ohio, has made a de- cision in the ease of a contest be- tween the two sects of the Mormons for the possession of the temple of Kirkland, where JossphSmith estab- lished the Mormon charch, n 1830. The coart holds that the “‘Reorgan- ired Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints,” or, othorwise, the auti- land in Irelsnd, in like manner insist that any messures to amellorate the condition of their tenants is “‘unwize tion.” . Touzalin's sacond reason for asking the members of the log- tslatare to commit perjury is, bacause, “Railrosd men are earnest beliovers 1o the principles of commercial free- dom. They know from experience, they have learned from the study of political economy and commercial law, and they have learned from the experience of other states that re- strictive leglelation does not _restrict, polygamous Mormons, were entitled tothe property, becsuse the church in Utah “‘has depapted from the faith, dootrines, laws, ordinances and usages of msid original ‘Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Salnts,’ and has Incorporated into its system of faith the dootrines of colestisl marrlage and & plarality of wives, and the doc- trius of Adam God worship, contrary %0 the laws and sonstitutlon of ssid original charch.” The Smithites are declared by the court to be the con- tinuation of the orlginal Mormon but cripples the exercise of that judi- clous discrimination, which must be exercised in order to foster aud on- courage the resources of a couatry o greatly dependent as Nebraska is on cheap railroad traneportation.” According to Mr. Touzalio’s idea of “commerclal freedom” public carriers should be allowed perfect freedom to bulld up one town and tesr down an- other by judicious discrimination. Buch is the case now in a little town in Gage county, which has been re- cently founded by an insids land ring of the B. & M., a mileand a half from an old established town. Such “commercial freodom” was exhibited by Jay Gould when he threatened to destroy 'the town of Co- lumbus; such commereial freedom” exists on the line of the U. P. in the coal business, where pets of the corpo- ration enjoy & monopoly of the trade; #uch “‘commercial freedom” was exer- cised by the B. & M. when they re- faced Owen & Co. transportation rates below the regular tariffs but granted rebates on the very grain that Owen & Co. owned, as soon as they bad sold out to a favorite firm. Mr. Touzalin's third reason forasking the members of the Nebraske legisla- ture to commit perjury iz because “railroads desire to avoid conflict with the lawa.” This is decidedly cool. Every man in the land who contem- plates violence or intends to take other men's property without jast compensa- tion, " “desires to avold conflict with thelaws.” Twenty yesrs ago Jeff Davis protested against the cnsctment of coerclon laws by the congress of the to be the first judictal determination jof the question of le- gitimacy of the two branches of the Mormon church, and it declares the Utah Mormons to bs apostates from the falth, snd the monogamic Mor- - mons the true apiritusl and temporal heies of the chuech founded by Joseph Smith. — Norwrrmerasvine Edison's failure the electric light is gradually drivirg out gas as & public flluminator. New York has three companier, which supply many large hotels and manu- facturing cstablishments with cheap light. The city of Denver is just now wrestling with the problem of electricity veraus gas. A company has been organized whose proposition has been favorably reported by a com- ‘mittee of the city council. Ti pose to light the eutire city corporate limits, affording s light in the aggregate four times grester than that turaished by the gas lamps ax now locsted, at a cost of $14,000 per . TR et United States. He claimed that the Joos o light ther omirebellions slave-holders wero the m’ o v b"""m‘ “largest property owners” in the southern confederacy, and didn't want any lawe to conflict with their ““vested rights” and peculiar institu- tions. This did not stop the govern- ment from interfering. ‘The fourth resson why Mr. Tovzalin aske the members of the legislature of Nebraska to commit perjury is be cause gas lempe st $6,500 per monum, and to farnish additional lights, giving forty timee the illumination of a gas Iamp, for $200 per annum each. The Gas company's proposal ls to light the city as at present for 835 per lamp por annum, if contracted for two years, aud $50 per lamp per anoum if con-. tracted for five years, Thesity is to pay for all new lamps erected, which, according to past billa, will be $31.50 por lmp. There are at present 343 #us lamps in the clty. At $35 per lamp, providing no more are erected, the cost per aunum wonld be $12,005; at $30 per lamp the cost per annum and repelled by the mera » this question, and they kn passage of laws harmlses in ¢ wili greatly increase tho al prevent further investmen:®.” would be $10,290. 2 in his owa letter h:s sh —— that fourteen states have o A New Party. leglslated on the railroad quest Among these are Maseachusetts, New York, Iilinois, Michigan, Missouri, California, Wisconsin, Towa, Georgia snd Minnesots. Has capital been frightened from investmeut in thoss states] Doesn't the record of raflway bullding show more miles in railrosd built fn Tilino Wisconsin than in Nebraska! If railroad butlding in Ne- brasks were dependent upon legalized piracy then we bad better walt & while Chicago is to have another conven- tion n the spring—ao the greenback- erssay. Theodds and ends of dis- coutent are to be brought r in the shape of new n.h, :i'x‘;:h plat- {;m broad Soough for all created ung to upon. De La Matyr, Gillette aad Weaver, wao will be ?;g of their present p witions after the 4th of March, are to stump the country in the vain endeavor to uusettle men's I'_lull:l onall sxcial and financial sub- Jects, untll capitalists who will be contended with reasonsble profits are willing to invest here. The fifth reason why Me. Tourslin asks the legislators of Nebrasks to perjure themsslves is tho rallrosd ‘managera— “‘fear that the examplo of Nebraska may be followed by states east of us, and they know that the results of sach predures east of us will orlpple our Tacilities for reaching a market.” This is about as unressonsble ss the fourth ples. Mr. Touslin kuows that the enactment of any lawa east of Nebraska, unless passed by congress, cannot in the remotest degreo affect throngh rates. No matter whatlaws Tows, Ilinols, Michigsn aud Ohlo may enact a contract made by the B. & M. in Nebraska will hold good. Bat all this bug bear sbout tho raising of throngh rates from Nebraskaisall moonshine. Should sach through rates be doubled to-dsy, means would be found at once to remedy the evil by reducing bulk through the starting of great manu factaring enterprises, which would give a homs market for our prodace. We should have in all the important towns in Nebraska packing houses, starch factories, geist mills sad beef canning establishments. The sixth reason why Mer. Touzalin wania the members of the legislature to commit perjury Is becauss the railroad managors— “‘are themselves citizens and property holders of the state, and it fs their daty to themselves to give their views in thelr individual capacities, and pre- vent if possible euch railroad legisl tion as will impair their private inte oats, even if & small temporary addl- tion is made to the ravezues of the corporations they serve.” Within oneblock from TrE BEE oftice five railroads officials occupy rooms in one bailding who draw an aggre- gate of §70,000 a year In salaries. We don’t know what Mr. Touzalin draws per sonum bat we venture to ey thst the five of- ficals in the U. P. heat quarters would prefer to sacrlfice their ““private interests” and let the pablic be rabbad during the rest cf their natural lives, rather than have their namos taken off the U. P. pay- roll. In conclusion, Mr. Tousalin asks members of the legialatare to commit perjury by enacting & law which, under their oath of ofice, they ecannot ensct. Mr. Touzalin asks the loglalatars to pe: law creating a railroad commission, when he knows snough to know that sach an act would be vaid. Article 5, Executive depariment, after enumer ating the various executlve officers of the state, reads s follows: “No other executive state office shall be continued or created, and the dutles now devolving upon officers ot provided for by this constitution ahal o performed by the officers herein crested.” Now, a board of salsried railroad commissioners could not be created by the lagislature ucless the persons dos- ignated already hold stato offises. If the legislature should follow Mr, Tou- sslin’s advice the law would be either vetoed by the governor as uaconstl- tutional, or the railroads would resiat itia the coucts. Ia either cass the mandate of the constitution which requires ths legislature to cnact laws to prevent unjust discrimination, and extortion would be defeated. And this Is why Mr Touzalic has written six columns to the Omaha Republican to be published at the expense of the corporations which have pooled their political attorneys, political editors and the politizs]l lobby that hangs around the legislaturo. IOWA BOILED DOWN. Ames has recently obtained tele- phone exchange. A movement is on foot In Keokuk to establish a street-car line. The sparcows in_the park in Du. buque have died off in large numbers Guring this winter. Towa has more women doctors and Iawyers than any other state in the union.

In some way it went off, and a load of shot was lodged in Sharts’ face, head and neck. The State Pharmaceutical associa- tion met in Des Moines on the 9th in annual convention. The attendance was large. The assoclation fn this state is the most flourishing in the union, and has by one-third tho largest mber of .iembers than any other te associatlion in the country.
