They are attempt- ing to persusde our legislators that such a bill would be & cruel and com- ‘maunistic raid on crpital unauthorized by precedent and contrary to justics. Now the fact of the matter is that Ne- brasks is one of & few states who have not yet imposed such & tax on the earnings of railroads. Ssc. 1213 of the laws of Wisconsin relating to rails road corporations reads as follows: 8xc. 1213. The annual license fees for_the operation of such railroads lh;lll')l--hllon:“ i .

It isdecidedly the most care- fally drawn, comprehensive and satis- factory messure which hav yet Deen presented for yubitc approval. The first section provides 2gsinst discrimination in charges to shippers ana receivers, and forbids the grant- ing of rebates, drawbacks or any other compensation or remuneration on rc- count of shipments. This provieion strikes at the root of one of the most serious outrages practiord by the mo- mopolies against our | roducers. Section 2 provides that every rail- rosd corporation in the state shall provide cars and suitable facilities for shipping, handling and receiving frelght at every station on the road, and section 4, that a fixed and deter- mined schedule rate of tariffa shall be publicly posted in every freight and passenger office on the various roads, which schedule and classification shall not be changed excepting upon ninety dsye’ public motice. Under a rigid enforcement of this enactment, the wvarfous riogs of coal, grain and lum- ber dealers, favored by the corpora- tions, would be broken up, acd every shipper of freight would ba placed on equal terms, while the ruinous effects on trade, causcd by fluctuating rates on freight, womd bs entirely obvi- ated. Sections 5, 6 and 7 relate to the tariff rates which, under the provisions of thisact, the company may charge upon the various clakses of freight of- fared them for transportation. Under the provisions of section 8 the pas- senger tariff is fixed at thres cents a mile on first class traine, snd two cents per mile on second class or mixed trains. This sum is no lower then s charped for the same class of service in Iowa and is smple remuneration for the service. The penalty for esch and every violation of any or ths provision of this act is a fine not less than ten nor more than one bundsed dollars, or im- prisonment in the county jail, and all acts in conflict are to be repealed on ita passage. This paper sincerely hopes that the legislature wili not permit itself to be drawn aside by the tactios of the rail read attorneys from the favorable con- sideration of Mr. Jensen's bill. It ‘meeta the grest question of the hour more fully and more satisfactorily than sny-of the many propositions now before that body. It is framed in the interest of Nebracka producere which the railroad companies declare is their own interesf, and if it fails of passege the people will know at whose door to lay the fault. —_ “Pro Boxo PrELIC,” whose real name is E. F. Test, publishes a long ‘communication in the Lincoln Journal advocating a boardof immigration and the Jexpenditure of a large appropria- tion to defray the expenses of such & commiseion. He sccuses THE BeE of Inconsistency in sdvacating nevepaper advertising and refusing to applana the board scheme. Now,if there is one thing for which TaE Bek has obtaived credit it has bsen for its consistency. This paper slnce its foundation bas never crawfished upon a single subjact and we defy ““Pro Bono Publico,” or any other man to point out an instance where Tae Bee has gone back on its record on any question or any issue. We have found out from our own ex- perience that newspaper advertising, or, a8 stated in » late editorlal, *‘the liberal use of printer's ink” will do more for the cause of immigration than twenty beards of emigraut cem- missioners. When in reply to 50,060 immigration copies of TrE BEE, over 15,000 replics were received, we have good reason to point to the showing as unexampled in the history of news- paper advertising. Tre Bex has no axe to grind in this matter. Tthas shown our legislature what it considersthe best and cheapest method of calling attention to the resources of this state as a field for immigration. They must be the judges of ita value, PARNELL refuses to leave his post of datyand come to Americs in the present cricis. He believos he can be of more value at home than abroad.

BOW TEE DIAMOND BACKS ARE RAISED AND SHIPPED—A BIG COLLECTION OF THEM. Mobile (ls.) Register. A fow days ago an article clipped from a Washington paper appeared in The Register, giving a description of Senator Dennis’ terrapin form in Maryland. As we have something of the sort to boast of in the ueighbor- hood of Mobile, it may not be amiss to give our readers a description of Mr. Mulford Dorlon’s great terrapin farm at Cedar Point. This projection of land is on the west-rn shore of Mobile bay, about thirty miles below this oity, and is inhabit- ed principally by oystermen, who reap golden harvests from the many beds which furnish nearly every oyster brougat to the port of Mobile, M. Dorion, who keeps a store at this point, hus about three acres fenced in, with strong pilings. Leading to this enclosure are two canals, one on the bay side and cne on the gulf side, whih supply with salt water a number of ditches ten feet wide and 100 feet loog The sand accumulating from theexcavation oftheseditches is thrown on each side, and used by tho ter- rapins tosun themsolves and 1sy their eggs in, which, if counted, would go upin the millions, aud can be raked up by the bushcl In the winter season the terrapins remain imbedded 1n the mud of the ditches, where thay y until spring time, never toucting a morsel of food. A system of sluices enables Mr. Dorlon to keep the ditches full of silt water, and drain them at pleasure, and ha is not at all dependant on the tide for that purpose. The number of terrapins on the farm, as far as can be secertained and by the closest calsulation, is between 20,000 and 25,000, and in the course of the next three or four years will be something hard to caloulate. Abont May 1, Mr. Dorlon makes his purchnse of terraptus from the country people on Mississippi sonnd, and takes all he can secure at $2 a dozen, and that generally averages 8,000 a year added farm, outside of those bred The {nhabitants of Mis issip- pi and Alabama bun's the terrapios with doga trained for that purposo. The dog barks when he finds one, and the hunter immediately secures it by going to thespot where the dog poiats. The cost of feeding the terravis which, as we have said. is only donein the summer, is about $1 per dozen for the season, and the price per dozen in New York has uries from 818 to 88, The food, which consists of crabs and 6ish, is caught with a selne, in front of the farm, and really very litflo ex pense is attached to the raising of these valuable land tortoises. Mr. Dorlon begins to ship abont Octoher 1st, and then on to ahout May 10th. Ho generally sends his to Savennah by rail, and thenco to New York by steamer, averaging about 12,000 a se son, and had it not been for a disas- trous hurricane, which some time ago washed out Mr. Dorlon’s farm, it would be to-day one of the grea:est terrapin farma in the world.
