We should say they did sometimes, They materialized over in Towa Tuesday, but they were not numerous enough to defeat the amend- ment, Tury have double headers in other states than ours, A county conven- tion held at Carthage, Tllinois Monday resolved itself into two conventions, each of which sent a delegation to the RAILWAY REGULATION. The editor of the HHerald is in ex- cellont company as an uncompromis- ing opponent of the regulation of the vast and complicated system of rail- roads by legislative statutes, Horatio Seymour, democrat of democrats, broad, pure and able as he is, stands at the head of the men who do not believe either in the principle or the policy of managing the business of railways by law, through commission- ors or otherwise, by fixing arbitrary rates upon freight traflic, end the best of public men, statesmon of ap- proved character and record, are too numerous to count, who stand with him on this question. 1f his position in sound as concerns old and populous states like w York, even a blind man can soo . that it is doubly sound when taken in such rew and sparsely populated s 'ates as Nobraska, whoeo rallways depend upon free action with the trunk lines that traverse five states over which ocur products and commoditiesare carried. — Omaha Her- ald, Horatio Seymore, Bourbon of Bour- dons, nover has beon a progressive man, He did not believ either in the principle or in the policy of abol- ishing slavery by law, but when it wan done the Bourbon of Bourbons fell into line and endorsed the plat- form that declared in favor of porpet- ual freedom. Horatio Seymoro did not believe eitker in the principlo or the policy of the equality of all men bofore the law, but after the decreo had gone forth he gracefully submit- tod to the new order of things. The Rev. Mr. Jasper, of Richmond, refuses to believe either in the princi- ple or policy ot the diurnal revolution of the eazth around tho sun, and he still insists that “thesun do move,” but every American #chool boy knows Jasper is behind the age in his ideas about our planetary system. Horatio Seymour is in his dotage. The railroad problom was not among the vital issues with which the coun- try had to grapple when he was in his prime. The ablest and most vigorous thinkers of the present day do believe not only in the policy and principle of railroad regulation by law, but in its absolute necessity. The railways of this country are now practically under one management. The great trunk lines arc owned, and controlled by a half a dozen men. Competition has long since given way to combination. The men who con- trol the railroads and telographs of the country are vestod with an un- limited power of taxation and con- fiscation. In a republic like ours the power to impose taxes even when ex- ercised by representatives of the peo- ple in state legislatures and congress is necessarily limited. Shall the peo- ple of this country submit to arbi- republican state convention, now in session at Springfield. Havixo succeeded in packing the republican conventions of the ninth lLowa congressional district, the mwo- nopoly organ with a republican brand at Council Bluffs is now setting up the pins for a monopoly man on the democratic side.

Tho amendment prohibiting - the manufacture and sale of liquors in the stato of Towa has been adopted. Tho estimated majority is various, from twenty to forty thousand, but the ex- trary, and unlimited taxation by rail- road kings when they will not allow their law makers to tax them beyond certain limits, The toll ex- acted by railroads from their patrons is in the nature of a tax, and that tax falls most heavily on the producers and the commercial classes of the country, In some seotions, notably west of the Missouri and on the Pacific coast, these exactions have been tantamount tc confiscation. The feudal barons that own the Pacific roads, have stripped the country of its surplus wealth, California, Nevada, Oregon and the territories havo beon taxed out of nearly all they have dug out of the mines or raised upon the soil. Nebraska has a tribute of many cach year in theshape of e railway tolls, The Union Pacific bridge at Omaha has taxed this stato out' of three or four millions, and the city of Omaha hus been compelled to pay tho cost of the bridge three or four times over. paid willions ive tent of the majority is after all a sec- ondary matter. The next step in or- der will be the enactment of laws to entorce the amendment, and when these laws are enacted it remains to be seen whether prohibition can be enforced. The experiment in Kansas doos not warrent the belief that such laws can be enforced, except where they are fully sustained by the public sentiment, According to a recont business di- reotory, thero are now fifty-five towns in Kansas with one saloon each, twenty-fiveltowns with two saloons each, four towns with four saloons each, and hali a dozen towns with from five to twenty-nine saloons each. In Topeka, at the state capital, there are twenty gin mills, besides a largo number resorts where liquor is dealt out under another name. The exist- ing saloons in Kansas are kept open and kept up in defiance of law and amendment, becaure prohibition 1s not sustained by public sentiment in the towns where they are located, Human nature is the sawe every- where, and, while there is no doubt that many saloons will be closedin Towa by the prohibition amendment, the contraband manufacture and sale of liquor will continue, be- cause those who agitate these meral reforms seldom have the backbone to follow up the violators uf the law in the courts, In the larger towns and cities where the liquor traffic broeds the greatest evil the effort to eaforce prohibition is generally the zaost abortive, The practical result of the amendment in Iowa will be watched with a good deal of interest in other states, but it will take more than six months or a year before any judgment can be formed as to the moral and social effect of the experi. meut, the The admirer of Horatio Seymour, who presides over 7he Herald, has shared in tho spoils of the robbers, and therefore hoe can see no principle or justice in the regulation of railways by law. But the country from Maine to Oregon, and Texas to California is arroused to the necessity of imposing legal restraints upon the taxing pow- or of riilroad kings, The regulation of railroads by stat- ute is not an experiment, It has been a decided suc.oss in England, whero the commission haye authority to enforce their orders, and where the railways cannot with impunity build up one class of business men at the expenso of another class by giving secrot drawbacks or allowing speeial rates, The regulation of railroads by law has been tried in a number of states in this country, and it has proved a success wherever the law has beon faithfully enforced. It is only whero the railways have conspired with dishonest public oflicers to de feat the laws that regulation has proved a failure, R®gulation has been a success in New York, where a limit was fixed by law upon passenger tolls over the Now York Contral nearly thirty yoars 8go. InTowa the maximum passon- ger rato fixed by law has been three oents per mile for & number of years. When the people of Nebraska were paying from five to seven cents a mile twoyears ago over railroads built by land grants and subsidics, the people of Towa were only taxed three cents To-day people who travel on the east bank of the Missouri down the Coun- cil Blufls & Kansas Cityroad are taxed three cents a mile, while people who travel on the west bank of the Mis. souri over & railroad owned by the #ame company are taxed 4 cents a wile. Why this difference? Siuply bacause the people of Towa have regu- lated their passenger fare by statute. Down in Georgia and Texas the rail- road transportation charge has of late been regulated by statute, and all ac counts agree that the geneval satisfaction, excepting, per. haps, to the railroad managers. They and their paid retainers and Bourbons, who never learn anything in their generation, will continue to resist overy effort to protect tho country against the ebuses that have grown out of the control of the public highways by giant monopolies, but they cannot stem the tide that impels the people to enact laws for their self-preserva- tion. THE PAVING QUESTION After agitating the paving problem for more than six months, Omaha has measure gives at last reached the point where she can give practical expression to her sontiment, The great obstacle to paving until now has been the want of legal authority to assess a tax upon the owners of the property on the streets to bo paved, that will pay for the paving. Our charter very proper- ly fixes the limit of special tax in any one year to five per cent of the ns- wossed value of the property taxed. To allow a greater amount of special tax in addition to the regular taxes, which for the state. county and city aggregate nearly five per cent would have been ruinous. Few people could meet such an exaction in any one year. The only way to enable Omaha to mest the expenso of paving without imposing too much burden upon the ownecs of property at any ono time was to issue paving bonds. Before we could do this we had to amend our charter and define the manner in which pavements should be proiected and carried on. Having secured the necessary authority, a proposition was placed before our citi- zens to vote the necessary pavement bonds. Under the amended charter the city can only issue one hundrod thousand dollars of paving bonds in any one year, and this sum can only be exponded for paying the cost of paving the intersection of streets and alleys. Authority is also granted to the city to issue bonds to pay for pav- ing the stroets, but this amount is to be taxod against the property owners, who are to pay the principal and in- terest in five yoarly installments. This will make the paving tax com- paratively light, although the property on paved streets does pay the whole amount for paving the street, the city paying for intersections only. It is hardly necessary for us to im- press upon our citizens the import- ance of this election. The horrible condition of our streets must con- vince every intelligent person of the absolute necessity of paving. The work cannot begin too soon. We cannot afford to pase an- other scason with such wretched streets. We have already suffered in- calculable damage by the want of passablo thoroughfares. Our mer- chants can better jafford to close their stores Friday and give their whole time to the bond election than allow the proposition to bo defeated. Our workingmen are just as much interested in this paving question as our business men It does not matter who will boss the job 80 the paving will be done, em- ployment given and money put in cir- culation, This is not all. The expenditure of £300,000 for pavements will stimu- late capitalists to invest in store houses, factories and other buildings. It will infusa new life into the city, give it & presentable appearance and a solid foundation to stand on. There can be no reasonable objection to the voting of these bonds. We cannot pave without them and we cannot get along without pavements. We always admire enterpriso in any nowspaper, but when the Omaha Herald scissors interesting matter from Chicago and New York papers two or three days old and palms such ar- ticles off as news telegraphed to the Herald by dating them forward, its patrone will hardly regard such, enter- priso as legitimate, For instauce, Wednesday morning the Herald prints an article headed, “The Am- erican Ganges, how some Now York mothers dispose of their children.” This article appeared in a Chicago pa- poi Monday with the same heading, bat the Herald has it dated by tele- graph, Juno 27th, That is almost as enterprising us printing electro plates that have made the rounds of other s newspapers for two or three y Mavor Bovp is full of surprises e'pecially in the matter of appoint ments, He surprises his friends just about as much as his opponents, — By Acclamation, Niobrara Pioneer. Ina recent date of the Ohicaga Tribune Ex-Senator Paddock is made to say that Congressman Valentine is 0 populer in this district that hoe will be nominated by acclumation at the coming convention. The Pic thinks that, Nebraska's ex-so greatly in error when ho thinks that such is the case. There are other good men in this district who are anxious to bacome congressmen, and Mr. Valentine alveady having had a four year's trial, the people and politicians can find as gcod a repre- sentative from among the other gentlemen looking to that end. Mr, Paddock also said in relation to Mr, Valentine's success that it would do away with the unfortunate factions that now exist, In our opinion it will make those factions the more bitter. There was a time when that factional strife could have been stayed in North- ern Nebraska, but the uncompromis- s and all-powerful influence of Mr, Valentine’s henchmen only induced the people to become disgusted with their management of politics, Noth- ing has been too lowto do nothing too unprincipled to make political capital. That this has had its ir fluence the peo- ple last fall_demonstrated in several counties, The old worn-out politi cians, who have for so many years nursed off the people by holding of fice, are being substituted by young men. ‘This is dreaded by the old ones and the slanders which have been forced upon the readers of our cotemporary have been instigated by the most selfish ¢f men who have for years held a charmed life is monopoly. These same men try to bribe and have become daring in their attemps Being caught in their own traps, stories and jobs have been invented to make their own eins looks clear, These attempts to de faime character have not in the least added to the strength of Mr. Valen- ine’s prospects in Knox county, not- withstanding the report that he will have a clean sweep in the third con- gressional district, Such men as Judge Crounse and Hon, Isaac Pow- ers will have some woight in a conven- tion of fair men.
