Statistics show nbout 85,000 miles of - | railway with a c.pital and debt of about five thourand million. The grons earnings per mile a little over £7,000, and the net earnings a little over $3,000 or an aggregate of about £615,000,000 per annum, with a clear profit of over $255,000,000. Now these figures are startling to the poor laboring man. The entire taxable property, real and personal, of the United States in 1880, was something aver fifteen billion, and therefore the railroads in about fifty years would make in clear profit an amount greater than the whole taxable property of the whole Union, Picture it, think of it, in a man’s lifetime would take from the pockets of the people, and princip- ally the farmer, according to thecensus of 1880, over thirty billions of money. On estimating the population of the country at 50,000,000, they tax every man, woman and child in all this land over $12 per year, 86 of which is clean profit to go into the pockets of about 20,000 nabobs, and chiefly into the hands of a couple of hundred railroad kings. Now take Nebraska with her 500,000 poople and 3,000 miles of railway. Taking the general average of $3,000 per mile profit, that would foot up $9,000,000 annually or about 18 times as much as it would take to run the state government. Therefore the people pay 42 times as much money to support the railroads as they do to support their state and 18 times as much they pay them as clear profit. How is that for high? Does it not stand to reason that they should have something to say when these roads want to take advantage of their ne- cessities to force them to pay more. But besides all this, the government takes away the homes that God has given to the people and gives it to the railroads. Then the people have to buy their own property from the roads and from their blood, sweat and toil furnish the money, not only encugh to build the road, but to leave mil- lions more as a clean bonus. The Texas Pacific company gets over 14 - 000,000 acres to build 668 miles of road, costing at $20,000 per mile, over $13,000,000. This land is worth to the railroad at least five dollars per acre. Then the company geta $70,000,000 to build a road which can’t cost more than $14,000,000 and to support which.the people will pay per annum $4,676,000. Is it any won- der that Ames had his Credit Mobilier book,and that Newall is swearing right now, that Gould, Huntington & Co., have just bought congress up again and proves it by figures, dames, &o. Is it & wonder that they buy up wholo legislatures; as they did in Now Jersey last spring, judges, lawyors, every- body, run newspapers and just own everything but that little pices of pa- per—the ballot of the poor men Now this is what alarms the laboring man. - He works for his $2 00 pur day in the dirt and hot sun and can barely feed his hungry children. The railroal man, no better than he, drives his splendid carriage and is 82 busy counting his millions that he drives right over him or his litle ones playing in the street. Is it not natural for the poor laborer to say, ‘‘My God, “‘sir, every bead of sweat on my brow “is worth a ten-dollar pieco to ‘‘you, of which you take nine “and give me one, Can't you give “‘me enough out of my own bloed to *“‘make my sick wife comfortable.

Visr has made an immense speech on the anti-protection side of the tar- iff question. Vest and Voorhees, the two democratic ‘‘Vs"—with but a single thought, split wide open.

Miss Mamie L. Hatchett, of Lunenburg, Va., received Mr. Gar Jand’s attention and finally quarreled with him, Whereupon Garland boasted that he had kissed her. She got mad and wrote him a long letter, in which she advised him to leave the country or she would blow on him, and sent it by Addison. Garland smiled and re- peated his “‘kisa” story. Whereupon Addison sent him the regulation billet deaux of southern chivalry. They met with numerous friends, were introduced, and proceedel to dis- cuss the matter, when Addison became furious and raised his hand to strike. Garland went for his pistol but Addison got the drop, fired and disabled Garland’s lelt arm. Gar- land, however, opened fire and Addi- son's pistol snapped every time. And he now lies in the church yard and Garland in the county jail without bail. Why didn't the boys bury that mischievious little Hatchett between them? Mamie Hatchett is ill and is taking of following Addison by the suicide route, SEYERAL propositions to have the pension rolls published to the country have been voted down in congress, and always on the ground that it would expose old soldiers to the mor- tification of seeing their names in print; that is all bosh. No true soldier exists who is not proud of his honest wounds received in battls, or of dis- ease contracted in the service of his country. The pension is an honorable reward just as the medal that he wears on his breast. But the pension lists aro full of names that never were on a muster roli, If published the coun- try would know st once what bogus doctors recemmended and what con- gressmen secured the fraudulent pen- sion, That is where the hen scratches and the pensiou bug lies. Why dont the Grand Army take this matter in haud and petition for the publication of this Jist. It would unearth a huge fraud, and save the tax-payers much hard money. ‘Waar would the Republican do for editorial stufliog if it was ot for Tur Bee.

Does the delicate young man of the Republiaan *‘catch on” to that old woman of Dunham ? It is proposed to refer contested election cases to a special federal court, and report its hndings for final action to congress. It would be better, cheaper and manlier to devise some way to enforce the national election laws in the south so that every elector could freely deposit his ballot and have it fairly counted.

The, People Unite in an Effort to Get Justice Correspondence of The Bee, The people of Hitchcock county, Nebraska, though blessed in many re- spects, are not entirely free from vex- ation. They have a railroad running through their county and that railroad appears to be constitutionally opposed to paying taxes, Knowing that Tre Bee has come out strongly in favor of justico and fairness to all parties, both railroads and individuals, we send you the following, and let the people of other counties judge for themselves an to who jis_right. The Burlington & Missouri railroad runs through the central portion of Hitchcock and Dun- dy counties, having a little over 72 miles of road in the two counties, However, the railroad company repor- ted to the state board of equalization that there were only 3 and 6-10 miles of road in Hitchcock county. Instead of allowing it to go in that manner, tho county commisrioners entered a protest and the state board forced the railroad company to make an addi- tional report. To this second repert the company claimed to 69 and 310 miles of unfiuished road in the two counties, besides the 3 and 6 10 first reported, which was claimed to be finished road. The company reported the total value of the 69 and 3.10 miles at;$75,000. The state board ignored the valua- tion given by the company and fixed the valuation at 83,000 per mile. In the additional report the auditor of the B. & M. stated that on the 1st day of April, 1882, the rails had just been laid, the rurfacing of the track had not been finished; that the sta- tion houses, ongine houses, water tanks and sectiun houses were all in- complete; that the railroad was not doing a general business, receiving no revenue whatever, and was not in a condition to do any business. This additional statement was sent to the county commissioners by " the state board. The commissicners, through their attorney, J. Byron Jennings, objected also to this additional report a8 being incorract, and produced the afidavits of eighteen of the best citi- zens and tax-payers of the two coun- ties, including all the county officers of Hitcheock county to the effect that on the 1st day of April, 1882, the said B. & M. ratlroad. from the east line of Hitchcock county to the west line of Duady couuty, was completed and in perfect ruvning order; that the rails had been laid for months prior to said time; that the surfacing had been com- pleted weeks before; that the engine houses, station houses, water tanks and section houses, were all completed before the lst of April, 1882; that previous to the 1st of April, 1882, the railroad was charging fare for passen- gers, freight for transportation and doing a general business as common carriers in the full acceptation and meaning of the term railroad; that no work has been doue on that portion of the road within Hitchcock county sinoe the let day of April, 1882, ex- cept what has been performed by the ordinary section hauds. The affiants further swore that the railroad was to all intents and purposes as com pletely finished on the 1st day of April, 1882, as at the present day. These sworn sta ements of the citi- zens and tax-payers of the two coun- ties were presented to the state board on July 17, and the evidence was so conclusive that the railrond company asked through their attorney a few days, in which to prepare their side of the case, which was granted. When the railrond make their state- ment the state hoard will give their decision aud report to the county authoritics, Dundy county, lying west of Hitch- cock county, has no county organiza- tion of its its own, but is under the control of the officers of Hitcheick county, hence the reason for the county commissioners including Dun- dy iu their reports. Having given the affidavits sworn to by 18 unimpeachale citizens rgarding the condition of the railroad in tch- cock and Dundy counties, we will now give a verbatum copy of a letter giv ing the railroad view of the queation LiNcons, June 20, 1882 Hon John Wali hs Au i cr o' Public Ace unts: Dear Sic— Lo reply to your faver of , the Rcpublican Valloy of Culbertson on to the Colorado state line, was on April 1, 1882 in process of coustruction anl was not completed, and at the tms 1 rendered to you the assvssinent return, that of april 1, we deemed that that fact justitied our excluding that part of the road from cur returu, ‘This piece of roud, a8 you are aware, has been bailt as part of the line to Douver, and 1n itself as a local line will not pay. On April 1 the rails had just beon laid, but the surfaceing had not been completed, nor had the stations, buildings, water tanks, en- gine 'houses, erc. It was therefore by no means in condition to do a regular business and was receiving Lo reveuue. At the present time, although the line to Denver, of which this isa par, 1 laid with rails, it is not a railroad in the full acceptation and meaning of the term, as 1 buildings are not completed, received its rolling stock, and it there- fore as yet an unproductive piece of property of little value, if any, as a railroad, under which form it 18 to be taxed, excopt in the future. These are the facts, and in view of them it would be out of the bounds of equity 10 tax this piece of uncompleted and unproductive pisce of road, in Hitch- cock and Dundy counties, from which, during a large part of the year, no rev- enue whatever will be received, and during the balance of the year no pro- fit, at anything hike the resvof the Re- publican Valloy road, and questiona- ble whether it should be taxed at all this year. Hut we do net desire to be in cou- flict with the citizens of these coun- ties, and I will therefore, and do here- seven and eight-tenths (27 8.10) miles of uncompleted road in Hitcheock county, and forty-one and five-terths (41 5-10) milea of uncompleted road in Dandy county, and the uncompleted buildings an e tracks, and other appurtenances thereof, on the first day of April, 1882, at seventy-five thou- sand dollars (875,000). In regard to the material on hand at Benkeiman, which is referred to in your letter, that was material in transit for the contractor bui'ding the railroad in Oolorado, and every pound of it was shortly afterwards moved on into Colorado, and put into the road there. It was lett at Benke'man for the time being, becauss we happened to have better facilities for storing it than the contractor had in Col- orado, It is no mors taxable in this state than other freight in transit, which, by some accident, might be lying on our line on the 1st of April. I trust the board of equalization will accep this return and make the apportiou- mont accordingly. I am truly, C. D. Dormax, Auditor B. & M. Railroad in Ne- braska, The residents of the counties in question have always been and are now warm friends of the railroad com- pany, but they do not propose to sub- mit to an injustice. All they desire is that the railroads shall pay a fair tax on their property and no more. One of two things is evident—either Mr, Dorman hss made a false state- ment regarding the railroad property or elso the eighteen affiants have per- jured themselves, If Mr. Dorman thinks he can [righten out the tax- payers of the two counties by simply making a statement contrary to their affidavits, he is badly mistaken, for they are not the kind of men that are easily scared. The decision of the state board will be awaited with great interest. A. C.D. " Taxation. Kearnoy Prees, mode of levying and collecting taxes. Not ouly do railway corporations evade the payment of their just pro- portion of taxes, but, as a rale it is done by all wealthy individuals. All property should be hsted at its actual cash value, and the assessor shc uid ba There is nothing so much needed in | g Nebraska, as a radical reform in our | ¢ particular to swear every party assess- ed. Strinzent laws should be enacted, and penalies provided for, to inflict on avery person or corporation failing to make true returns. Uander the present mode of listing, not one fourth of the preperty is given in, and the laborer, mechanic and farmer, have nearly all the burdeus to bear. Our railway companies are assessed at from $3,600 to $11,C00 per mile and are capitalized at from $30,000 to $100,000 per mile. Many business men and capi- tulists return trom $300 to §3,000 who have from $5,000 to $40,000 which should be returned. In the west half of this county, the U. P. road pay no taxes on their land, while all their lands outside the ten mile limit, are exempt by the grace of our county commissioners. But when a settler buys a quarter section of these lands, and pays $100 on the same, he is im- 1n said lands. The supreme court of the United States has decided that the mortgaging of these lands was a transfer, and prevented their ever being forfeited to the government. If this be true, they are certainly tax- able, and if thevoters of Buffalo coun- ty would ever coneult their own inter- ests, for a moment, they would elect wen to office who would place them o the tax list. The lands should be taxed at the rate the homesteader’s lands are taxed. The man who lives on his lande and improves them,is enhancing the value of the lands of the railroad company and the epceula- tor, and they should bo cempelled to pay the rame ratio of texation, Such & method of assessment would force the lands on the warket and be the nmeans of farmer on every quarter section of good lands, and adding to the im- provements, wealth and prosperity of the state, The injustice of allowing railroad lands to escape taxation, and speculators’ lands to only be taxed at a nominal value, is one of the great |¥ injustices of our political existence, and one that must be speedily reme- died. The poor man has no escape from taxes; but the rich and powerful fix the amounts with absolute cer- tainity, which they propose to pay, and *hese amounts are accepted, and no questions esked. The Press pro- poses to labor with all the ability it mway possess, to right these evils, and expects its readers to be very careful to select good men tor the legislature this fall, and & good man for county comissioner, one who cannot be swerved from his duty to the people or himself, by the U, P. company. There are tw> commissioners now serving who were elected upon the ieane ot taxing U. P lands, but they have not been heard from in that di- rection, since taking the oath of office, But there are men who will keep their pledges to the people and we must find them and bring them to the front. In no other way can we expect or hope to secure equal or exact justice in the matter of taxation.
