ROSEWATER Editor C———— Brapy s now on the stand In the star route trials with the prospoct of a long cross-examination, The longer the better for Mr. Bliss who draws $160 a day and expenses, and who charges up such amall Incidentals as postage to the government. Ass1aTaNT TrEASURER WYMAN, for- merly a resident of Omaha, has been appolated treasurer of the United States in place of James Gilfillan, re- signed. Mr. Wyman, It will be rem- embered, heldthis responsible position for several years and retired on acoount of failing health. He s thoroughiy qualified for the position. ——— Whaols to reform the oivil service reformers? The first act of Civil Ser- vice Commissioner Thoman was to bring personal ixfluence to bear upon the treasury department with a view to ‘“‘reforming” one of his friends in- to office. Begging office for friends while holding a placs on the olvil ser- vice reform commission would seem to bo the helght of undulterated cheek. Dr. MiLier takes up the cudgels for the men of wealth as against what he calls oppressive taxation. It is no orime to be a wealthy man as long as the wealth has been honorably se- oured and the owner does his duty as a citizen. |But there is no reason why large and wealthy property owners should not pay their jost share of taxes just as cheerfully as the poorest mechanic and clerk. The evasion is a wrong inthat it robs the city of its rightfal revenue and Incroates the burdena of those least able to bear them, Tue oconstitutional expounder of the Lincoln Journal is still harping on the folly of the legislatare in at- tempting to regulite the businesr of striotly private concerns, like press sssociations, ‘‘As well might they decree that the Masons or Odd Fel- lows shall admit every applicant to thelr orders or compel these socleties to give up thelr mecret ritual, as to compel a strictly private association of newspapers to admit into its mem- bership every paper that may desire to share Its privileges.” This Is about as logleal as the com- parlson made wsome days ago by the Journal between press assocla- tlons and dealers in groceries and dry goods, We apprehend there is a marked difference between member. ship in a purely benevolent soclety and a close corporation gotten up to monopolize telegraph news. WIll the constitutional expounder please inform us why he never called in question the right of the leglalature to interfere in the business of a striotly private concern called a newspaper by estab- lshing the rate which it shall exact for what s called legal advertising? And what right has congress to limit the charges which any newspaper may make for the publication of advertlsements inserted by author- ity of the United States courts and officers of the United Btates. But congress has enacted such laws and the treasury department has for years re- fused to pay any greater charge for officlal advertising than the commer- cial card rate of the paper. Now if one newspaper is & quasl-public con- ocern, subject to regulation by state snd natlonal legislation, why can’t an assoclation of newspapers be regulated by lawi | —_—— “Sus Rosa,” In the Washington Capital, says: “I think General Porry will be the next quartermaster general of the army. All the tre- mendous soclal Influence that made Mackenzie brigadler general Is for him—the Rogers, Sherman, Perry, Belmont, Oameron, Butler, Freling- huysen comblnation—that 1s frre- sistible when brought to bear on Mr, Arthor, General Holabird has a strong backing, but Mr, Arthur ts for Perry. General Ingalls goes out in June, and he, too, is for Perry.” ‘While, on general principles, promo- tions in the army ought to be made from consideratious of senlority, in common with many of our citizens we will rejolce to hear of the promotion of General Perry, He was one of the most popular and genial army officers ever stationed in Omaha, and made & hoss of friends In our clty. EQUALIZED A!'SESSMENTS. One of the arguments used by the aaseenors agalnat raising the asssesment {8 that it will Increase the rtatetax, of which it 1s sald that Douglas county already pays more than her share, Suppose it did. Is. the fear that Douglas county will pay more taxes tothe state, on a fair assessmont, to prevent an impariial assessment re- gardless of ownership or amount of property owned by Individaals or cor- porations. The fact is, howaver, that an equalization of assessment would not increase the great maes of indl- vidual payments of taxes on as~ountof the state levy. At present every $100 of aasossed property in Omaha pays 80 cents of the state tax and about $4 00 of clty and county taxes, The assessod valuation of clty property is 87,200, 000, which at4 percent makes the rev- enue of the county and city $288 000 a year. Now suppose that by the as- sessment of all real estate on a uni- form basls of one-fourth ot tta value, we should ratse the aggregate of tax- able property to a round $10,000,000, which by no means would be less than one-fonrth of the value of real property alone, Assume furthermore that thé amount of revenue to be ralsed for city and county purposes was limited to $288,000 a year. In that onse every $100 of taxable prop- erty In Omaha would ouly pay 80 cents of state tax snd the oity and ocounty levy would be reduced from $4.00 per $100 to 82 86, 1In other words, instead of belng in- creased, the tax levy would be reduced twelve mills on present valuation of property that is already sssessed at one-fourth its true value. The city and county might, however, increase thelr revenue $112,000 a year without Increasing the tax levy over what it now is, on property fairly assossed and parties who are now paying taxesas the bulk of our citizens do on a valuation of about one-third would - not be oalled upon for a dollar more of taxes, Equalizitlon of assessment would only hit the tax eshirkers. It would tncrease the income from weal- thy land owners and decrease the bur dens of our olerks, mechanics, busi- ness men of moderate means, Let this once be understood, and all the howls of the men who have made fortunes from the rise of real estate in Omaha will frighten no one. The demand for ralsing and equalization of assessments Is general among taxpayera who enjoy no exemptions, The pec- ple demand it for thelr own iaterests and the Interests of our cliy, which hes suff:red long enough from tho shiftloss and shameless methods of the past. E——— Nean Dow's state makes a bad showing of the effects of prohibition which some of our westetn states might do well to study before going over to Governor 8t, John's deluslon, The prohibitory system has been maintalned io Malne for 25 yoars, and the internalrevenue bonds show that probably as much liquor is bought and sold as in any other state of its population where the traffic s licensed. For Instance, the olty of Portland has a population of 33,000, and 212 places which take out a gov- ernment license. Bangorhas a popu- lation of 10,000, and 164 drinking saloons, or one to every 64 persons, The little city of Biddeford has 68 liquor shops, and Lewiston has 62, Prohibition evidently does not prohibit any more in Malne than it does iIn Kansas or did in Towa, Moxe than 61 per cent of army of- ficers have been taken from civil life, and this fact Induces The New York Sun to urge the abolition of West Point. Mr. Dana cannot forget that General Grant was a Weat Polnter, —— OTHER LANDS THAN OURS. The political qulet of the old world has been again disturbed by dyna- mite. On Thursday evening the lccal government board offices at Westmin- ster were shattered by a mighty ex- plosion, which shook the city of Lon- don for a mile distant and caused the greatest alarm In the parllament houses. An attempt to blow up the Times cffice was also made, which failed, The press naturally attributes the deed to the Irlsh revola- tionary party, under the couusels of O'Donovan Rossa and the assassin press of Amerios, but the government refuses to commit itself until a full tnvestigation of the out- rages has been made, Parliament has felt the spur of Mr, Gladstone's presence, and during the week has chlefly directed itself to the passages of the estimates or appropri- ation bills, Mr. Parnell sgain made the fact evident that the Irlsh ques- tion wlill not be permitted to be pushed into the back ground by pro- posing radlcal amendments to the land sct, which, being opposed by the government were rejected by a mma- jority of over 300, It is plain that the promler holds his party well In hand and may confidently count on securing avy legislation pre. sented by the ministry. The parlia- mentary session up to the prezent time has been » mere eskirmish, but, the real work will begin after th{ Easter vacation, when the mmufi. for extending the franchise In the countles and for muniolpal refory in London will be pushed. It I, ng. THE DAILY BEE~OMAHA SATURDAY MARCH 17 mated that all the rosources of the|partura from the traditlonsal corona- new rulas will be brought iato reqals- | ton. itlon to expedite the minis- torial programme. It Is expected that the consolidation of London will excite great opposition. London proper, the area governed by the lord mayor, is mere- ly the old city, which is made up chiefly of places of business, and Is the oity which possesses a municipal or- ganizatlon—mayor, aldermen and com- mon ocouncll, The other parts are governed by parish vestries, and the only body which exerts any general aathority is the Metropolitan board of works. The ministerial bill proposes to enlarge the bounds of the corpora- tlons to include the adjacent parishes, reduces the representation of the old city in the board of aldermen and the common councll, and substitutes re- presentatives of the outlying parishes in the places thus vacated. The lord mayor, under the new system, will be the successor, historically, of Whitting- ton and all the rest of the wor- shipfal serfes; but he will govern what all the world call London and not, as at present, the conven- tional London of the old charters. The moot point in the plan is the con- trol of the pollce. Because of the necessity of a police system for the whole city, Parliament many years ago organized a metropolitan police. The city and the parishes pay the cost, but the control I8 vested inthe home secre- tary, amember of the cabinet, Shall itbe transferred to the new municl- pality, or retalned in its present rela— tlons, Infavor of its transfor is the example of every European capital but one, and the feeling that the control of a city police properly belongs to olty government, as representing thore who directly bear the expense, Against it {s the doubtful examaple of Paris, and the English feellng against needless changes in an arrangsment once effected, It is cald that thobill will propose no change, but Mr. Gladstone hardly would resist 1t, if desired by a majority of the house. In Ireland there are no events of dramatio Interest to note, though the London explosion is, as noted, proba- bly the legitimate result of the Irish agitation, Several arrests have beon made during the week and all the Phoenix Park conspirators have been bound over for trial. Egan's flight is still the subject of discussion and rev- elations of the land leagués complicity ln agrarian crimes are promised. One Mullett, an informer, has already given Information which it 1s claimed serivusly compromiees Egan and other land league lesders, but as it 1s known that the government {s anxlous to establish this fact there will undoubt- edly bo plenty of evidonce manufac- tured in {ts favor, Purishad o soclalistic emeute last week, which has been greatly ex- nggerated by the Hoglish press, Its only political sigatticance ia the ovi- doncé which 1t gives of the new vigor and vitality of the government, Sa- perficially, the rlot was a demonstra- tion of unemployed workmen against the government, though, as usual, there were more political agltators and desperate vagabonds than actual workmen in the mob. The hand of the communist—or, in the new phrase, the anarchist—propaganda is seen in the plan and execution of the demon- stration, In {its deeper political sig- nificance, it is probably a feeble and desperate attempt of the extreme rad- {cals to intimidate the ministry and the assembly, and inflaence the course of government. The death of Gambetta removed the wholesome restrait he continued to exerclse upon the radical section even after he separated him self from thelr communion. He was a sort of connecting link between the communist party, with which he acted in his early days, and the mod- erate republicans, to whom he drifted later. With his removal the gulf between the parties opened again. The colorless ministry he had organ- ized was succeeded by a strongor cab— inet, distinctly representing the con- servative republican sentiment of the republic, aud headed by Jules Ferry, while his old time radical friends fell into sharp and decided op- tribune. The first move of the ex- Gambetta once carried through the senate, The government took declded grounds against the measure, and, after a brief debate, defeated its con- about two to one. rlotous demonstration of Friday, which whole eplsode is cheerful evidence of the atrength of the new government in the legislacure, and of its capacity for (fliclent and orderly admlinistra. tlon, It justifies falth in the vitality of the republic and the good sense of the French people. The rumors of Prestdent Grevy's re- tirement are dented. The reports are sald to have been put in clrculation by the Orleanisteprinces. position under Dr. Olemenceau, who aspires to the position of communist tremo party was to revive the scheme How to ¢ffectually protect him against the conaptrators and yet carry oat the eeremony in fall will tax the minds aud skill of both himself and advisers, In Germany the publication of the Vatlean correspondence has shown that che Imperieal govornment is no yet ready to waive a suffisient number of the cbnoxious provisions in the Falk laws to form a basis for thorough reconciliation with the Roman pontiff, The pope has offered to agree tos sub- mission to the government of all nom- inations to clerioal cffice, but asks that the educatlon of the olergy be once more placed entirely in the hands of the church, Failing to obtain this apparently reasonable concession, the correspondence has beea for a second time discontinued. The resigniaton of Admiral Von Strosch, miniscer of the marine, has created a genuine sen- satlon tn Berlin, The minister whose resignation the emperor refuses to ac- cept, does not hesitate to sssert that his course was dictated by the {mpos- sibiiity of agreement with Blsmarck. This is the second member of the cabinet within two woeks with whom the chancellor has quarrelled, and the condition of affairs In the political famtily of the emperor does not seem to be improving, Spain seems to be in a far more dis- tarbed condltion at this time than any other country of Europe, The re-es- tablishmerk of monarchy, instead of promoting peace In the community, appears to have broughtabout extra— ordinary activity among all the dan- gerous elementa of the population. Tho arrests during the past fow weeks of people charged with soclalism or anarchism have been on a very large scale. By a recent dispatch we learn that no less than twelve hundred per- sons are under arrest in Andalusis alone for complicity in the anarchist movement, :ndp that a large proportion of ihem are members or abettors of a powerfal secret society of which the world has just heard for the first time, the soclety of the Black Hand, whioh is sald to demand a redistribation of the land in Spain, and many social changes of extraordinary importance. It Is evident that the setting up of the young king’s throne and the return to old Spanish politios have not satisfied or quieted the Spanish republicans who overthrew the monarchy and foanded the republic that fell nine yeara ago, In the olection to fill Gambetta’s acat in the Belleville distriot, Sunday, there was a largs falling off from the vote polled last summer, The radical candidate has a large plurality, but not o majority which the law pre- scribes. The ballot will be contlnued next Sunday, as that 1s the day de- voted to election in Frauce, when the candidates receiving the least votes will retire and leave the open to the two receiving the largest number, Gambetta, it will be remembered, was vory nearly beaten by the indignant workingmennf thedlstrict, whofancied he had become tco conservative in the presidency of the chamber, —— An autopsy upon Prince Gortacha- koff, to clear up a suspicion of pofson- ing, opens up a wide rauge of diplo- matlo possibilities, = Whose interest would have been advanced by the death of the superannuated statesman? Was he possessed of secrets dangerous to the exlsting regime of Russla? Had he really, as was some time ago hinted, given occult ald to the nihil- istal ‘a8 1t tohis Machiavellian ad- dress that the amblitious Ignatieff owed his successive checks as chief adviser of the czar? Polson has been the means by which Russian states- oraft has so consistently worked out its ends that it would not be surpris- ing to have the suspiclon in Gortecha- koff's case confirmed—but it is doubt- ful whether the German authorities would be 80 uncivil as to permit the officlal verdiot to reach the public, since the imperial families, being kin, are expected to help each other in little wesknesses of this sort. The greatscandal In the lower house of the Austrian relchsrath—caused by Dr. Von Kaminsky, one of its mem- bers suing a railroad contractor for compensation for securing the latter the concesslon for the construction of Galliclan Transverse railroad—has culminated in the forced resignation of Dr. Kaminsky and Dr. Wolski, an- other deputy.
