JSWORN IN THE SECOND TIME. Governor Horace Boies Again Installed as the Ohief Executive of Iowa. HE PREACHES AGAINST PROHIBITION, Pointed 1t Has Some Very Plain an g u Law That led- 1, d State cern| DEs Morses, ia., Jan, 20, —The inaugura tion of Governor Boiss took place this aftor- noon. The weather was mild and the crowd of visitors in the city fromn the different parts of the state was never larger at a similar cer. emony. The procession formed at 1:30 at the Savery hotel and moved to the capitol. It consisted of six companies of militia, with a party of five or six regimental officers with their staffs, the gubernatorial party and dis- tinguished visitors in carriages, the Hawk eye ciub and other democratic organizations. ‘The oath was admiuistered in the bhall of tho house in the presence of both branchos of the legisiature by Justice Roturock of the state suprems court, In bis inaugural address Governor Boies said: Too Much Legislation, Fellow Citizens, Gentlemen of the Senate and House of Ropresentatives: Gratoful to the people of my stute for their continued confidence in mn, and with humblo reliance upon the Author of our being to guide me in the discharge of my duties, I have come be. fore you to assume once more the formal ob- ligations wlich tho coustitution of our state llrum'rlb\'s to qualify one elected to the oftice am called to fill, t0 enter upon the discharg of his official labors. | want to express th gratitude I feel toward those who have will- ingly aided we in the great work to which [ was oalled, and who navogenerously covered with a muntle of charity the mistukes in evitably made in the performance of tho multude of duties that fell to my lot. It has been my privilege as 1t is made my duty to communicats to the lugislature my views upon varjous matters that wifl demaud its attontion during the present session. ‘T'her are, however, certain questions with wh the present logislaturo must deal of suc general intorest to all our people that they may properly receive attention m an address of is character. Among the first of these in point of import- ance 18 the question of the duty of those who are clothed with authority to make or ropeal he laws of a state. T cannot avold the couclusion that wo legis 1ate too much. There aro cortain natural rights which v man possosses, and certain obligations sh b a3 & member of socioly owes to tho . Itis clearly within the provinco of the legislature to enact laws for the pro- toction of the former and enforcement of the latter. Beyoud this in statutes that are do- signed to rozulato the conduct of men, it is, 1 bolieve, generully unwise to go. It is safe to say the wisdom of man has never yet been sufticient to cnale him to devise practicavle means for the enforcement of striotly moral obligations. So long as_the conduct of men is restraino® ~vithin limits that admit of no encroachmen jon the rights of others it should be lort . the regulation of their own consciences, and to tho coutrol of laws that emanate from a wisdom superior to our owu. But under such a definition, the field of logitimate legislative action is not restricted within narrow bounds. Lecislators may righttully disagroo as to whother an experimeutal statute shall be en- acted. If enacted and it vrove a failure in whole or in part they caunot rightfully dis- agree as to whether or not it shall be amonded or repealod. “Prohibition” a Flat Fallure, No duty of tho lawmaker is so plain as that which démauds of him the repeal of any law whenever it is demonstrated by reasonable experiment, that it tails to accomplish _tho purpose for which it was onacted, and no demonstration of its failure is so complete as that which is furnished vy the fact that in a country like our own, among people the most enlightened of any on the faco of tho eartis, whole communities unite in ignoring it, and willingly consent to its open and continued violution. Among all the criminal statutes of Towa thero is onc, and one alone, that is openly, notoriously and continuously violatea with the tacit, if not the publ ed, con- sont of & vast majority of whole commuuities of our people who are in overy other rospect as moral, as lawabidivg and as_desirable citizens as any within our state. For vears and years this coudition has oxisted to the Tositive knowledge of every state ofticor and of every well informed citizon of Iowa That the evil n's grown with the years is unquestionnbiy true, That it will continue to grow until the law is changed, or new and extraordinary methods for its enforce ment are provided, is cqually trie. There is left but one remedy for tho en- forcement of this law that lias not already been tried, and that remedy involves the sacrifice of a principlo that is the very koy stone of the arch on which our form of gov- ernment is built, the rightof the peoplo to rule. Conter Distr If for any romson or ou any pretext we establish tho precedont that any one of the units of popalation way be deprived of the right of local self-government in matters that portain_exclusively to their own welfare, that even the least” of their officials may be selected in opposition to their wisues by others than those over whom they aro cailed to preside, wo will havo driven an_entoring wodge into the very foundation of this re public that will lack nothing but repetition on a broader scale torend it in twain for over. In the presence of such a danger 1s it not time that we pause anda see if we cannot dis- cover a reason for a condition that all shoutd deplore, and that none can rightfully cousent shall continuo 1o oxist. 15 it not true that heve, at least, wo have undertaken tosubstituto for the ‘conscionco of mon a criminal law of the stato! That in this respect wo have invaded the realms of natural right and subjected the conduct of the citizen to the control of penal statutes beforo such conduct invades any possibio right of anothor! Hero in this place, at loast, we should be ablo to put askde the contracted view with which the mere sentimentalist is able to con- sider this question. We should comprehend tho effect of the law not upon the saloow keoper alone, but upon bvery human bewg within its jurisdiction. We should recnguize thie fuot that ivis not choso alone who by reason of agoe or habit are leeitimate objocts of paternal caro, that aro mado the wards of the state and taken under its control by this law, but instoad thereof, that it reaches be- yond all these, and 30 far as the use of intoxi- cating liquors as a boverage is concerned, 'y spirit and purpose of tho law to subjeot every man's conduct to it absolute and unquestioned control. Whaat (he Luw Hax Accomplished. And so viewed, what bas the law undor taken to accomplish ¢ It has converted into flagrant crimes, acts that a vast majority of the best people of the whelo civilized world rogard s inno cent. It has toquived for its enforcement tne in fliction of penaities that, eowipared with the acts for which they ave imposed, would shoek the cousclonce of the iost LAFbAToUS ruler on the globe, It hes invaded the domain of the most snored of porsonal rights, wnd aestroved without mercy overy form of individual prop erly that stood {0 the way of its enforco ment. 1t hins entered the homo of overy eitizon of the state, made itself the guardian of his actions and dictated bis couduct in matters strictly personal to bwself, and for which he Plates Loc nehisement., should be responsiblo to kis Maker alone; for, if_euforced, there would not be in all tnis state oue siuglo piace where any man or Woman coula purchase for use as a beveragy oue drop of intoxicating liquor of any name or kind, i It has proved an oostacl to the mitarial ogress of lowa of such magnitude that to. with & state the - peor of wuy of her , with her resources but “half de veloped, we arecompellod to witness & more rapid advancement than our own in tbe popu y state that adjoins us ou eitber has thus far failed bocause, from every business standpoint at least, its enuctment nvolved the commission of a hideous wrong 10 those whose property It destroyed, because | it infliets cruel and inhuman penalties for | many acts that neither the judgment nor the | eonsciences of men condemn as wrong, and because it ia in conflict with the natural right of all men to control their own conduot ‘n their own way 40 [ong as they do nothing to invade the rights of others, & Must Be Do Wo have reached a crisis in this matter that can no longer be avolded. Tho people of Towa must be allowed to know what their public servants propose to do. I'hev cannot and they ought not to longer submit to present conditions, “I'wice in succession in the Known to our institutions by which an ex- prossion of the public will can be obtained they have declared in favor of a modification of this law. In each instance the issue on which they passed judgmont was clearly defined and per- fectly understood In their soveroign capacity spoken in no uncertain tones. L am unable to see how any branch of the lawmaking power can rightfully disregard their demand. If we vield to it our duty is plain. We wil not dovrive any locality in Iowa where pub. lic sentiment upholds 1t nf our prosent pro- hibitory law, or its cquivalont, nor wiil wo compel othors whore public sentiment is op- posed to it to live under it. 10 this compromise, hovorable to all par- and unjust to none, our people will as [ ve find peace upon this troublesome question May we not welcome such a result as the harbinger of better days, of a broader charity for the opinions of h other, and a more liboral comprehansion of the relative rights of the units of population, that together make up the grand state wo possess ! Someth only mauner they have Ballot Reform, In each of the tast two clections in Towa at which members of the legislature were chosen, & majority of vf,u electors thereof have declared in favor of tho Australian sys tem of voting, “That some form of secret ballot will aid in the preservation of our institutions fam firmly convinced. If thero is one duty moro clearly definod 1 all others which every citizen of sufi ciont intelligonce to excrcise the elective franchise owos his state, it is that which re quires of him that he weigh with unbinsed care the political issues uis vote must help aetermine, and conscientiouly form his own opinion as to how it shoud be settled, and then cast his ballot in_accord with his own deliberato judgmont. This is the theory upon which our form of wovern- ment is based. If in practico it is faithfully followed thero is not the slightost danger to our institutions in the future. Not an election is held that men who ought, to realize the dauger of the work they are doing do not rush into the political arens and in one form or another use all the in- fluence they possess to prevent, electors from expressing by their ballots their own delib- erate convictions. That party that first grapples with this hideous monster of political intolerance and Tobs it of ils power to influouce elections by the people, will deserve and receive tho plaudits of thoughtful men in every part of the world, and will clothe the political insti- tutions of this country with an armor that 10 enemy can penetrate and no time destroy. Concerning Corporations. The aggregation of vast capital under a single management is uuquestionably a source of dauger to tho well-being of the masses, unless coutrolled by judicious logis- lation. ' Every right which 'a corporation possesses is tte voluntary gift of the state. Jivory powor it can uso for good or ovil is derived directly from the poople through the Slawmaking power of the commonwealth under whose statutes it is organized. They do niot stand upon the same footing with in dividuals. They are possossea of no natural rights, wnd they owe allegiauce to no natural tawe. ' Tn this state we have passed all ques- tions of dispute on this point and settled in the afirmative the proposition that the power that creates an_artificial person may in wll things exercise over its actions a reas- onablo and fust._control. 11, should not be forgotten that many of the improvements necessary for the proper de- velopment of the resources of our state, and for the highest cnjoyment by our peoble of the advanced civilization of the present age, can ouly be obtained through the md of great agaregations of capital, and that this must Iargely come from voluntary subscrip- tions to the capital stock of incor. porated companies. From this day forward at loast that country will lead tho nations of the earth whose commerce is most ex- tousivo. The great thoroughfares through which the traftic of a natiou flows are liter- ally the veins and arteries of 1ts corporate To impedo its progress, to_hamper alation of its Jife blood, is to plant the seeds of national decay and reap as a re- sult » harvest of degenerato men, While there should be no cessation of con- staut and ever watchful care on the part of tho logislature to see that trausportation companies doal fairly with the public thoy serve, itis equally necessary to keep in mind their importance to the state and recognize the fact that they are purely voluntary as- sociatfons, organized for pecuniary profit alone, and that legislation, 1f adopted, which is unfair to interests of this character will in the end result in permanent iojury to the commonwealth thut enacts it. State Kevenues, At prosent in this state wo are practically without any legal system for the vatuation of real property 1n assessing it for taxation, ba- cause by common consent the law in. thi ru- spect is totally 1gnored by those whose duty 1118 to value the same. We are equally des- tituto of any practicable method by which all the personal property of the stato liable to taxation can bo brought to lignt, or the value ascertained of that which is discovered, If the custom which has been adopted of assessing proporty at a fraction of its vaine is to be coutinued, it should be so provided by law, and & uiform rule established on this subject. I¢ is, however, 10 my judgment, a matter for unlimited regrot that we havo pormitted a plain provision of thestatute, fixing & defi nito rule for the valuation of all property, to bo superseded by a custom us variablo as the whims of men and somotimes as destitute of the spirit of fulrness as itis of law for its support. Public opinion in lowa has long associated with the oftice of inspector of olls fees exor- bitantly in oxcess of the value of the busi- ness capacity and labor required to porform tho duties thereof. It is enough to kuow that the emoluments of the office ure to some extent in excess of the value of tho labor necessary to perform its dutios. This excess, whatever 1t is, rightfully belongs to the state, and nop to any individual or political party. The. legislature should require the foes of this office to b paid into the Lreasury and fix a salary for the chief inspector aud for-each of his assistauts commensurate with tho value of tho services thoy porform. That there will be a confiict of opinion upon questions of seeming importance to you is inevitable. But clothed as you are with authority that must be used for the weal or woe of thosa that bestowed it—representing as you do the majesty and power of & great commonwealth, you can afford to put wside overy feeling of partisan prejudice and lend your united onoryios to the accomplishmont of the greatest good for the greatest uumber of the peopls of your state. That you will accomplish this is the hope and prayer of those who have honored you, of those whom you will honor if, when "vour work 1s doue, the Great Master' of all, ‘the architect aud builder of that systom of diviue laws whose chief interprater is the conscience of man, can pronoutien it *wall dons.’!

H. Andrus, our immigration agent, whose head- quarters are at Holdrege, reports that within sixty days past ho has located nearly 100 men in western Nebraska, some ns renters and others as buyers of the land they occupy. Ho also reports a remarkably large number of inquiries. It is gratifyinz to noto that these new-comers are a superior class of people, many of them being from eastern states."

Mr. Leeds made a special rate and thero was no doubt about its being unauthor- zed. Mr. Millor changed the rate on wool from the Mississippi—not on sugar as re ported in the papers—but be maintains that it was authorized.” Notes and Peronals, General Manager Holdrege of the Burling- ton is in Now York.

GREAT THINGS fOR GOTHENBURG. These Men Ing Ce ntend to Make n Manufactur- F There Exel f Opinion Between Omiha i the Viators. Tho party of eastern capitalists bound for Gotheuburg arrived in Omaha at 1 o'clock yosterday afternoon, haying Chicagojn a special train of two cars over the Milwaukee road. Tho visitors wero met at the Union depot by the Board of Trade committeo and escorted in carriages to the Paxton hotel, where a number of other prominent citizens assistea in glving them a cordizl welcome. At 2 0'ciock the company sat down to a sumptuous dinner sproad in the hotel cafe, At tho conclusion of the ropast at tho 1’ax ton cafe, Mayor Bewis delivered a brief ad aress of 'welcome, He said it afforded him muck pleasure as a representative of the city for the past two wacks to extend to the vis- itors a cordial welcomo, Ho referred to their trip to Gothenburg, and in a jocular way faid he hopea they would reserve a little of their funds to invest in Omaba on their return from the prospective great city. The raayor assured the visiting capitalists & hearty welcome and wished them o again come to the city. Omana o In responso to the address of welcomo H Burknolder of Cbicago, in speaking for the visitors, said ho heartily appreciated the courtesy and the cordial welcome ox- tenced by the representative men of Omaba. He didn't wondor at the miraculous incrense 10 population of the city. Such a town, with its hospitablo people, would of necessity grow with great rapidity if all visitors worc outer. tained with suci hospitaiity as was the prosent deiogation. Ho said the capitalists would like to stop and live here, but, in asort of humorous 1nood, he thought_they belioved there was not enough room in Omaba for them. Kor this reason they wanted to go to Gotvenburg. Mr. Burkholder toid of the new town's rosources, of huviog built @ canal, of a lake which would furnish a water power almost equal to that of St. Anthony’s lls at Minneapolis. Wo expect to bear the hum of 10,000 man ufacturing industries,” said he. “As wo buila up Gothenburg We will contribute to the prosperity of this great city of Omaha.” Ex-Senator E. L. Pillsbucy of Boston said that the eastern visitors had come to the marvelous west and thoy had learned that nothing was impossible. There was nothing impossible for western men to accomplish. When they undertook anything they did it. If tho present ideas of Gottenburg were car- riod out. with its natural advantages, it would b a groat manufacturing ceuter, Said e, In comparing the populntion of wostern cities, ho acknowledged Chicago was a much larget city than Boston. He made this con- fesaion, he said, because o had to. In the ©ast tho people, ho thought, could hardly comprehend the marvelous growth of the west. Mr. Pillsbury also spoke of Omaha electing a Massachusctts wan as mayor— referring to Mayor Bemis. “You have made us foel today as _if we were of one family,”" be said i conclusion. “We thank you for your kind, courteous treavment.” i (d Gothenburg. Sugar Beet Talk. R. W. Bender of New York city spoke of the sugar beot industry and said if it were established in the stit of Nebraska it would be ono of tho groatest industries in the west. It required a good farmer to raise it. A slovenly agriculturist could not make a success of it. 3 “If 1 can find a suitablo location,” hie, “'T'll go into it jn this state.” Mr. Beder is an oxpert on wmdustry. v Mr. IS, Rosewater was noxt called upon for toast. He said if any man in the United tates did any kind of business within Ne- braske he was a benefactor to Omaha, How Nebraska Has Developed. Mr. Rosewater stated that when he first came to the city Omaba had a population only of 4,000, and he had seen its continual development and prosperity. In tho stats he had seon ranches becomo cities of from 5,000 10 10,000 people. He found Kearney, during his tour through the state tho last campaign, 10 be one of the best townsin Nebraskn. 1t was well oquipped with water power, sireet railways, electric lights, and had & greut power for manufacturing. “It seems to me,” said Mr. Rosewater, “that the future of Gothenburg 18 something moro than to oe a little place.” Mr. Rosewater thea reforred to the cold weather of Tuesday and said it was the cold- est day b had, seen hero during his res- idence in Omaba, Ho mado this statement in connection with saying that it was unfor- tunate that the visitors had come here just at this season. They wouid have been much more favorably imipressed with tho state nad thoy made tneir trip in June, when they could have seen the agricultural 1esources. Mr. Rosewater concluded his remarks by in- viting the visitors to make an iuspectiou of Tue B building, C. I\ Kittredgo of Boston epeech in which he roferred little story on Lhe debt question First Consus of Omaba, Dr. George L. Miller was next called upon, and said be could only add to the expressions of Mayor Bemis and Mr. Rosewater in wel coming the men to the city. Ho was proud of the eastern world, for” he, bimself. was born in New Yors. In making a comparison with Mr. Rosewater's 4,000 people, Dr. Miller said there were orly four people and one girl when he first came to Omaba, bat ho counted the girl four, waking o total vopu- lation of eight. He hau also wet one Indian, but be did not include the aborigine in his census. He duin’t think the Indian woula stay long enough to get into his city directory. Dr. Miller had sesu the town grow from that to 'its present stato of prosperity. li had een developed by eastern men, and for that reason he, togetner with others, welcomed the eastern wen here. As 10 the sugar beet industry he said it was almost a settled fact. It would be a suc cess the sume as have been the corn and cattle industrie Dr. Miller also spoke of the discredit placed upou the stata bv eastern people on account of certain loans ana investments. He smid this was brought about by eastern sharks, ot by legitimate business men of the east. He then talked of the state's wealth, its cattle, corn and agricultural in- dustries, and sald tho bonds of Nebraska said sugar beet made a short to Weuscer's VANILLA.

I had almost given up my case as hopotess when | was informed by w friend of Dr. C. Geo Wo, the Chineso doctor, und advised to go and see him in the hope of getting relief at least, if not pormanent cure for my trouble. I was slow in making up my mind to make such a radical chunge 1n my treatment, as I know a trial with the Chinese doce- tor would bring me, but I finally con- cluded to give him a trisl, so T ealled at his office with that intention. 1 found tho doctor a clever, entertaining gentlo- man, thoroughly posted on my condi- tion, and it took ‘only a very short time to convince me that he was the party I was 80 long in search of. He told me my cuse was curable, and that he could cure mo, and prepured me a special trontment to suit my condition, and in two weeks [ was so much better that [ had the fullest confidence in the doctor’s avility and committed my case to his treatment. I continued to grow bettor rapidly and am now entirely well, I owe my cure to Dr. C. Gee Wo, and am not ashamed to admit it.
