EXCESSIVE TAXATION, cific How Some People in South Omaha Suffer From 1t. The county tax list will not be ready until the latter part of next week, tho work being simply enormous, It seems to be evident that very many poor people in South Omaha will be utterly unablo tomeot tholr obligations us shown by this st. This is made ovident in many cases in which the taxes amount to almost or quite as much as the value of thelot, This is brought about as mever before in the history of the county, by reason of the very heayy grading tax thd his been pilod up on people of small means in South Omaha. In the cases reforred to tho regular tax runs from & to $20 a lot while the grading _tax is found in many instances to run from §300 to $400 and over, The worst part of the situation is that there is no remedy for these people.

Several ‘of the delegates started for home yestoniay morniug and others loft auring the Quy. The party will break up here and each delegate will return home via a route of his own choosing. Nearly the entire New England delegation will go to San Francisco, before returning home, There was a strong probability that a party would be made up to visit Denver, but this was abandoned as impracticable.'
