IT took 124 officers and employes to run the state senate in 1887, at an ex- pense of twenty-four thousand, nine hundred and sixty-five dollars and sixty cents, which did not include perqui- sites. This is surprising, but true. Tk last legislature appropriated two million seven hundred and twenty thousand eight hundred and nincty-siy dotdars and eighty-six ptaggering figures ought to be kept in view of every member of the legislature.

The annual cost of the state government for the past three s been quite two dollars per capita of the population, which is greater than in a majority of the states of the union. Nebraska has more money in propor- tion to popuiation duving the last three yes than has Penn- vlvania, Ohio, Michigan, [llinois, In- na, fowa or Wisconsin, all older and more fully developed states, and tho fore in better condition to be liberal to the point of extravagance in state penditures. Moreover,most of them have amuch largerdebt to provide for than Nebraska. Their resources of taxation also are more various, so that the cost of supporting their governments does not fall so largely as in this state upon the farming class Justice to the people, who are op- pressed by excessive taxation, and every consideration affecting the material growth and pros- perity of the state, demand that the ex- penditures shall be reduced in every department of the government where it can be done without impaiving the effic- iency of the public service. Leakage must be stopped, the avenues to plunder closed, sinecure officials or employes dropped from the pay rolls, all appro- priations of public money refused that are not absolutely necessary, and a gen- eral reform inaugurated in the direc- tion of judicious and systematic cconomy. With thisaccomplished, and a change made in the revenue laws which will remedy existing inequalities in assessments, the farmers of Nebrasica will experience a relief stimulating to their industry and thrift, an era of more vigorous prosperity will ensue, and the state will become more inviting than ever to the home-seeker and the investor. received pre man K whose years eanuot n oppressed expended A NOTABLE RPRISE. Tue BEER'S special new. train, inaugurated to-day, is a distinet and notable departure in the eaterprise of western journalism. Other papers have chartered special trains to distribute their Sunday editions, or for some ex- traordinary oceasion, but so far as know no daily in the country, and cor- tainly noue in the west, has ever put into effect such an enterprise as Tue BEE ent upon to-day—that of a special daily train for the conveyance of its morning edition to its rons be- tween Omaha and Denver, which will enable them to obtain this paper from three to four hours earlier than heretofore. This enterprise is not undertaken un- der any pressure of competition. No other paper in Omaha could or would enter into an arrangement involving so great an ex with the certainty that the profits from increa: tion eannot for a very long time ever shall, balance the outlay. due solely to the desire of T Bek to furnish its patrons with the news of the state, the nation and the world at large at the earliest hour practicable, for in these bustling days men desire to be in- formed of what is going on with the least possible delay. Wo huve entered upon a year that promises to be prolific in important and interesting ovents. A new administration will take control of the federal government, bringing for- ward new npolicies and instituting changes in which the whole people will be concerned. In our own state the course of legislation will huve great in- terest forour people and should be cares fully watehed by them. In other lands events of the highest importance are foreshadowed. All intelligence of this character the newspaper reader is eager 10 obtain as s0on as may be, and it isthe alm of THE BEE to mect this demand. The facilities of Tue BeE for furnish- ing the news of the world arc well known, These will be increased as cir- cumstances shall require. Leading by far all other dailics in this section us a newspaper, we shall not only maintain that position but ineorease the lead. Everything of intevest in our own and other countries will receive adequate at- aper we ense, tention;in our columns, while the policy of uncompromising devotion to the in torests of the people will be and fearlessly adhered to.

The present national house of repre- sentatives, with three hundred and twenty-five members, has one hundred and thirty-eight employes, includir clerks of committees and official repor ters of debates. Members who desive personal clerks must them out of their own pockets. The proportion of employes to members is one to two and one-third, and it should be remarked that the present house has not been illiberal in providing itself with em- ployes. There is, of course, no compari- son between the amount of business transacted by. the national house of rep- vesentatives and the lower branch of the Nebraska legislature, yet the latter body, consisting of one hundred mem- Dbers, two years ago had nincty-six em- ployes d by the state, or practically one for cach member. It must be ap- parent to everybody that at least one- third of these employes were unneces- sary, and that every dollar paid them was wasted, It remains to be seen whether the lower house of the present legislature will repeat this wrong to the taxpayers of Nebraska.
