THE DAILY BEE-~OMAHA THURSDAY, AUGUST 17 EQUALIZING THE BURDENS. The people of Nebraska in common with the people of the entire west have for years borne unequal and op- presssive burdens in the shape of state and local taxes. While every foot of 00 | real estate and every article of value owned by the people in subject to as sessment and taxation, the giant cor- porations that own the railroads have been largely exempt from taxes. There are millions of acres of railroad lands in Kansas, Nebratka, California, and the Pacific const states owned by the Pacific railroads, which have never been taxed. Under the "acific railroad act the lands donated to the railroads by the government wero to revert to the peo- From every section of the state comes the news that corn never look- ed better. This is good news for Ne- braska hogs and cattle, in which corn will bring the best returns when sont to market. First he was to go in by acclams- tion, next he had a walkaway by a large majority, now his friends are beginning to feel very uneasy, so un- easy that they are whistling to keep their coarage u; Sexator Hoar's constituents have been calling him to account for his vote in favor of the river and harbor iniquity, ‘which appropriated nearly aine millions of the public money for improving worthless eastern creeks, and the senator whose votes have been uniformly cast for every piece of legislation which picked the pockets of the people for private and local in- terests has felt forced to appear in print in a long winded apology for his congressional career. Mr. Hoar's ex- cuse is that the government can afford to be generous. No government can afford to be generous at the expense of being just and the grossest of all injustices is that which maintains an exorbitant popular taxation to foster jobbery and extravagance. f Sm— Prarnar, the political barnacle and blatherskite is out with a letter in which he assures readers of the Ie- publican that Senators S8aunders and Van Wyck favor Valentine's re elec- tion. Pearman is the man who as olerk of the judiciary committee of the senate at the last session of the legislature received pay for 48 days at , $3 per day or §144, while Senators Van Wyck and Hayden of the same county received pay for only 40 days at 83 per day, or $120, Hence the office of Pearman wes just exactly worth $44 more than that of senator. Of course J. W, Pearman, all the way from Otoe, also received more pay than any member of the house, from that county, Why J. W, Pearman received pay for more than forty days, is a matter worthy of some inquiry, inasmuch that he was not appointed on the first day of the session, nor did he have any work to do after the legislature adjourned, If Pearman has ever spoken the truth by accident Jhis triends have yet to find out this fact; and it is safe to say his latest ef- fusion is in the same line with his Jormer attempts. ple if they were not sold within five yoars aftor the ronds wese completed, But when the five years were up the roads managed to hold on to their | 1ands, and they still hold many mil- lions of acres of the most valuable lands, and evade their taxes by refus- ing to take out patents therefor. As far back as 1873 Judge Crounse, then a member of congress from Nebraska, secured the passage of a bill by the house to compel the Pa- olfic railroads o take out their land patents and require them to pay taxes. This bill atter passing the house was throttled in the senate, Two years later Judge Crounse push- ed the same bill through the house for the second time, and again it was pigeon holed through the corporation senators, The Iate Kansas republican convention has spoken on this outrage in no uncertain sound by inserting the following planks in their plat- form, Resolved, That we are in favor of the strict and immediate enforcement of all laws now upon the statute books for the regulation of railways Kesolved, That wo ask of the repub- lican majority +f the congress of the United States to pags snch laws as will compel the railways of this state to take patents for the lands granted them from the public domain, to the end that all property in this state shall pay its just proportion of the taxes; levied to support the government, Batall the resolutions and all the potitions for equalizing the public burdens will remain a dead letter as long as Nebraska and Kansas continue to nend railroad attorneys and cappors of the Valentine breed to congress. BENJAMIN H. HILL. Senator Benjamin H. Hill died yes- terday mornitg at his home in Atlan- ta, Georgia, after a long and painful 1llness of many months’ duration, He was born in Jasper county, Georgia, September 14, 1823, and received a classical education, graduating at the University of Georgia in 1844 with the highest honors of his class, Like most of the younger generation of southerners aspiring to political hon- ors he studied law and upon his ad- mission to the bar in 1845 he began the practice of law at La Grange, in his native state. Mr. Hill first entered political life in 1851, when he was elected a member of the state houso of representatives. In 1855 he ran for o ngress as the American candidate, being defeated’ by N. N. Warner, democrat, and in 1857 he a suf- fered defeat on the same ticket for governor, receiving 40,889 votes ageinst 57,681 for J. E. Bacon, dem. ocrat. Mr. Hill, in 1856, was a pres- idential elector on the Fillmore and Doneison ticket, and on the Bell and Everett ticket in 1860. Hoe filled a term of service as state senator from 1859 to 1860, and was a delegate to the secession conventipn in 1861 Up to the time secession was irrevocably resolved on Mr. Hill was @ strong advocate of the union and fought earnestly against any dis- ruption of the states, When the die was cast he threw his fortune with those of his state. He wasa dele- gate from Georgia to the confederate provisional congress, and was sub. sequently a senator to the confederate congress, At the oclose of the war Mr. Hill was arrested and coufined with & number of other political prisoners in ¥t. Lafayette, For several yoars after the close of the rebellion Mr, Hill took no active southern interests. A little less than two years ago a canceroua affection of the mouth first made its appearance, and for six months his death has only been a matter of time, The great sympathy which his afiliction has created for the sufferer throughout the country will undoubtedly manitest itself more strongly mow that death has removed him from the scene of his public labors, ATTEND THE PRIMARIES. Tie Ber again urges every voter to spare no effort to attend the party pri- maries which are to elect delegates to the various county conventions, The hardest work in the camj aign must be done in the caucus and primary meet- ings. Conventions in a large majority of instances only register the decrees of these preliminary political gather- ings, Every farmer who has at heart the interests of the producers of the state, and every merchantand projee- sional man who desires to see Nebraska taken out of the hands of corporations and their tools should make it a point to [cast his voto at the precinct and ward primary for honest and reputable delegates who will represant'the popular sentiments in the conventions, ~There 1s no doubt of the strong feeling throughout the stato in favor of an out and out anti-monopoly eampaign within the party lines if possible but outside of existing political organizations if no other course will accomplish the ob- ject. Wa believe that the republican party can regenerate itself if its mem- bers will take that active interest in the matter which the public welfare demand. The corporations are work- ing, through their local attorneys, POWER AND PRESTIGE Valentine and his atrikers have all along sought to create the impression that the whole federal patronage of this state is at their disposal. They are profuse with promises of clerk- ships, land offices, post traderships and postoffices, as the reward for po- litical services. They hold a eclub over overy officer’s head by threaten- ing him with removal if he dares to oppose Valentine for a third term. Such tactics have, in some instances, been successful. The idea prevails in some quarters that Valentine has ab solute control of all the patronage at the disposal of the president. All these people are laboring uuder a delusian, lentine controls no more federal patronage than the average congressman except, perhaps, the little postoffices scattered all h through the state, which will hence- forth apportioned to the representa- tives of each district. The editor of Tix Bex speaks from personal knowledge received directly from President Arthur himself. For instance, Valentine asked the presi- dent to reappoint his friend Sweet, formerly editor of the West Point Republican, to the land office in Washiogton territory, which he occu- pied during the last four years. The president absolutely refused to do so, but asked the Nebraska delegation to name a successor. Valentine inaisted on this man Sweet, but the president overruled him and appoint- ed a man from another state. When Hon. Bruno Tzschuck was urged by the Nebraska senators for the Vera Cruz consulship, Valentino entered a protest with the president against Mr. Tzschuck's appointment.

BURT COUNTY. A So0ld Deleaation for Crounse to the Fremont Convention. Correspondence of Tim Bun. Texamau, Neb., August 16, —There seoms to be a disposition on the part of Judge Valentine's friends to mis- reprosent the outcome of the contest || in Burt county. I notice a statement in The Republican of your city that Burt county has elected four Crounse delegates and four for Valentine. This is utterly false. A desperate ef- fort was m:de by Mr. Puirish to cap- | g ture Burt county for Valeutine, but when the convention mct there were tifty-four Crounse men to twenty-one fory Valentine. Parrish found himself powerless, but some of his personal friends ask- ed the delegates 1o honor him with a place on the delegation to harmonizes the party, on the condition that Par- rish would go with the majority of the delegation, Mr. Parrish has dedlared publicly that he would say to Valen- tine he had done his level best to get him the delegation and if that was not satisfactory he was ready to let Valentine dispcse of his commission a8 government director of the U, I, road to sume other man J. W, Glot e Democrat, The latest wrinkle of the agricul- tural bureau is the establishment of a London branch cftice. Of course great things are expected of it, though nobody seems to know why. London is a big place for farming, A large part ot our agricultural produce, grain and flour, and provisious and cotton, if sold abroad, Very weil. If com- missioner Loring’s agents could pre- ix months or a year ahead the size “of the next Europran or east- ern crops, could tell in advance when prices were to be high and when low, or could give pointers about selling to the American farmer, there would be some reason in the new departure. Just these things they will not be able to do. Planting and iilling and barvesting will continue t> go on in hope of, but with no assurance of an- nual deficits abroad. The agents will tell how things are; they cannot tell their slow methods will have shown producers in this country that it is tlme to sell, the fact will have been learned through the swift and un- erring processes of commerce, Dr. Loring may be enabled to publish a lot of matter suitable for a year-old almanac, and his correspondents’ ‘‘news” will be naeful to speculators, perhaps it will not benefit agriculture, To this statement, however, there may be one exception. Dispatches from government representatives abroad will naturally magnify the op- portunities for producers here to do a good thing for themselves, The inev- itable tendency of the reports will be to create the impression that Ameri- can crops are sure to have a boom, 1f there is a scarcity in Europe, its ex- tent, severity and probable duration will be surely maguiiied; if there is abundauce 1t will be touched on lghtly, in order not to breax the American market. sequence of this jugglery—the most natural thing in the world for the fac- totums of agriculture to engage will be the ei i range of pri ket will warrant, The tendency will be to give the prices every now and then a speculative rise through which sellers ms¥ be gainers, but ouly at the expense of their neighbors in the do- mestic market, These movements will rather discourage than encourage purchases on foreign account, and the general resuls will hardly be good. Dr. Loring seeks to collect such “‘special statistics as may be deemed of value in the regular and special work of the division of statistics of the agriculture department.” Now, the doctor knows very well that the statistics collected and published by his bureau are precious humbugs They are serious, suggestive to those who know how to use them, but value to the great national industry the; have done.
