THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, uvpon outgoing and Incoming channels for their trade and prosperity the Union Pa- eific should be made to pay, its just share of city taxes. He showed' that while owned In the heart of Omaha 430 ‘acres of land it would undér the prosent status pay on that fabulous possession the bagatelle of §870 a year In taxes, while the eity's total municipal payment must be this year $1,125,000, Mr. McIntosh pleaded for the assessment of property at its full cash value and polnted out that in the face Yoss ments to the contrary the total value of Union Pacific property in Omaha s §1 00,000, ‘And this road pays but 1 per cent the taxes for city purposes,”” he said He showed the injustice of this the otber Cmaha taxpayers. Mr. McIntosh made it plain that it was not a question of valuation he and his friends ing for, but ome of falr assessment and taxation. And hé showed contlusively that assessing railroad property .in Qwaha for municipal purposes did not affect one fota the county ssments In any other portion of Nebraska, as the railroads are trying to make people belleve. Messrs, Harrison, Ure and Mead of Omaha Real Estate exchange were present at the meeting. The Omaha and Lincoln exchanges meet tomorrow afternoon to dis- cuss these propositions and in the evening the revenue committee will hold another open meeting. were state or asse Perry Resolution. The Perry resolution, Intended to head off the lobby, was effectually sidetracked In the house today, when it was laid on the table by a decided majority. Douglas of Rock, who made the motion, stated that the only effect of the passage of such a resolution would be. to unfavorably adver- t the state, while the lobbyist, it dis- posed, would work on just the same. The lobbylst, he pointed out, did his most ef- fective work at other times and places than in and around the legislative hall. Perry announced after the vote that in case the lobby became too conspicuous he would move to take the resolution from the table and insist upon a vote upon it. Printing Board a Luxury, Senator Harrison thinks the state of Ne- braska is maintalning an expensive sinecure in the State Board of Printing and he to- day introduced a resolution in the senate providing that the committee on ac- counts and expenses be authorized to in- vestigate existing conditions and satisfy the senate whether or not this board s needed or could with profit be done away with. Harrison's idea is that each state department should be allowed to look after Ite own printing contracts and that such a system would be far more satisfactory In the matter of finance as well as in others. Considerable - Interest has been aroused over this ‘matter and It s expected that some immediate action will be taken. The Omaha house delegation has se- sured another appointment, that of Mrs. E. M, Dodson as copyist in the enrolling committee room, She was sworn in to- day. Mrs. Dodson was postmaster of Benson under President Harrison. Her term was continued during a part of Pri lent Cleveland's last administration and the ‘was reappointed by President' McKin- ey. Miss Grace Ballard of Washiigton county was today assigned to a position’ in'the grossing committee room.

It will be communi- cated at once to Mr. Bowen and the preliminary protocol will then be signed. . Impressed with the fair spirit in which Mr. Bowen has conducted the negotiations | tor Venezuela, an appeal has come to the | minister from ore of the largest German | firms in existence asking that he protect German Interests so far as he may be able in his representations to the powers. He 1s especially urged to call to the attention of the powers the serious harm that will accrue to forelgn trade in Venezuela and throughout South America it the allies insist on any proposition involving the overturning of the currency system of Venezuela. This appeal, with Mr. Bowen's endorse- ment, has been communicated to the powers. Mr Bowen is thus placed in the peculiar actitude of asking protection from the powers for the interests of their own eitizens. Ministers Urge Acceptance.
