PICKING the pookots of the tn :
payers at Lincoln is jnat as much robbery
bory M rifling thorn at their homos.
IT looks as if the present legislator *
wai the jobbers' bonanza , and 1
is being worked for all it is worty.
LOOK oat for the now nickels. En
terprUIng citizens of Washington ar
washing them with bronze and panaln ;
them for five dollar gold pieces.
SUSAN B. ANTHONY aalU for Enq
land in a few days. Mrs. Qoagar wll
'remain at L&fayotto nntll her llbo
trouble has boon brought to a focas.
SOUK ton thousand bill have beet
introduced in congress during thi
past year and a half. Nine thousand
nlno hundred and fifty might just ai
well have been omitted.
BILLS to protect the primaries arc
now pending in the New York and
Ohio legislatures. The bill to pro
tect primary elections in Nebraska
ought to bo speedily brought to a
passage at Lincoln.
THE clerks at Washington who gotten
ton hours' pay for doing novon hours'
work are breathing easier Inoo the
item dealing with their case has boon
stricken out of the general appropria
tion bill and reported in a separata
moaanto.
CITIZENS who refuse to clean their
gutters ought to be promptly waited
upon by the polico. If by shameful
negnoot our streets arn allowed to re
main in their present condition several
thousand dollars will bo lost by our
citizens through flooded collars.
OATTAIN PAYNK and his raiders do
not seem to be the only Intruders on
the lands of Indian territory. A list
of 2,400 intruder ! have been sent to
Commissioner Prlco with the request
that they bo summarily turned out.
This looks as if there was Immediate
employment for four raoro companies
of cavalry.
CAPTAIN PAYNE and hlo raiders do
not seem to bo the only intruders on
oho lands of the Indian territory. A
list of 2,400 Intruders have boon sent

Imost that ahoy bo summarily turned
out. It looks as If there was Imrno
dlato employment for four more com
panics of cavalry.
EVERY dispatch adds now partlon
Ian to the tale of disaster wrought bj
the Ohio floods. Bach a calamity ai
the abnormal rlso of the rivers in thi
east in midwinter is unprecedented.
That the distress among the lufferen
from the floods is appallng la showi
by the reports of the various rollo
committees in Ohio and Indiana. Thi
country will now be called upon t <
check their contributions for thi
Rhine sufferers and devote their char
Ity to relieving the distress of theli
own people.
Tur. committee on commerce art
certain that there can be no objootlot
to their now and revised river am
harbor bill. They claim that all thi
creeks , trent brooks and canals havi
boon left out , and the items rooora
mended are for necessary improve
monts. But there is every probablllt ;
that before it gets through the houa
It will bo extended to its original pro
portions. Fifty members are waltlni
for a chance to Insert a steal for th
bonoQt of their localities , and to drlv
another bargain before they retlr
from public life , .
THE Herald and Republican bav
crossed owords over the qnestlo
whether the Grand Army of the Hi
public Is a political orgaulzatioi
Those who ought to know doclai
that it is not. Probably no comr&c
will deny that the organization is mac
USD of by designing men for politic
purposes jntt as the Masons and Oc
Fellows societies are frequently d
verted to assist member * in roachli
office. There IIAS boon some live
partisan work done by comrades
the G. A. R , [ not a thousand mil
away from Omaha but presumably
Is unfair to charge their trickery
the organization which they ha
ned to boost themselves into proa
aeuoe.
A NEW REVENUE IiA.W.
The demand for a change in on
revenue law is general and omphatl
Ijnd every section of the state Is in
torcstod In the passage of a troasnn
which will remedy the deficiencies o
the present law and equalize laratloi
in Nebraska by distributing its burdens
dons whore they belong ,
The present law is lame in sovora
particulars and especially in the pro
visions which relate to the taxa
tlon of the property of cor
porations. Under Its oporatlot
three classes of railroad property
amounting in value to an aggregate o
millions of dollars have escaped assessment
mont every year , and the rovonui
which their taxation should havi
brought Into the treasury has boor
collected from the people of the state
The books of the state auditor shov
that the railroads of Nebraska havi
never paid a dollar of taxes on tholi
side tracks and switches. In Douglai
county alone there are over 300 miles
which If valued as the ought to bo , a
$5,000 a mile , and assessed at thi
usual discount , would give ui
a half a million dollars additional o
taxable property , A levy of two po
cent for county purposes would ndc
110,000 a year to the revenues o
Douglas county , and an equal * amoun
to the fnuds in the city treasury
wbllo the state would also ro <
cclvo its share of the taxes
This shameful evasion of taxes cat
never be remedied as long as the rove
nno law stands in its present con'
dltion.
A second and very Important evasion <
sion of taxation by the railroads it
ho failure of the managers to list
all the raw materials in their
shops and yards for purposes of taxa-
ion. Not a dollar has been paid by
any of the railroads in this state npon
ho immense amounts of construction
material used in the operation of their
oads. The millions of feet of timber
nd lumber , the thousands of tons of
allroad and scrap Iron , of copper and
oad , vast stores of chemicals and oils
nd supplies representing several mil-
ions of dollars , entirely escape taxa-
Ion. The railroad storehouses arc
xompt , while the merchant who has
bar of load or a barrel of oil is com
pelled to return it for assessment.
Three years ago Sidney Dillon in
ils annual statement to the directors
f the Union Pacific road returned
5850,000 worth of raw material on
laud. Since that Ltlmo the quantity
laa boon very materially increased ,
nd there is no doubt that the B. &
1. has half a million of dollars ol
tores and supplies at tholr varioni
bops and yards.
But beyond all this and above all
his , the franchises of those corpora
Ions which the constitution express ! ]
equlres shall be listed for taxatloi
lave escaped without a dollar of tax ,
'ho franchises are the extraordinan
nd exceptional advantages foi
condnotlng tholr business , glvot
o the corporations by the
looplo. They possess a market value
nst as much as the roadbed and rails ,
And the franchises of the railroads k
Nebraska are worth many millions o :
dollars.
The duty of the legislature is t (
pass a revenue law which will take al
iheoo omissions into consideration one
hose members who pledged themselves
solves to remedy the shameless ova
slous of taxes in this state will gross
y betray their trait if they pormi
; he present session to close wlthon
taking every precaution necessary tc
make the railroads like private cltl
zona boar their full share of the bur
dens of maintaining the government
BOMB comment is being excited bj
the fact that the president has madi
no apparent move towards the oxeon
of the civil service la * , All crltlclsn
aa yet is premature. A fnll mont ]
yet remains before the act goes lot
effect and Mr. Arthur has no donb
> eon keeping np a good deal of think
ngslnon its passage. The only pares
os who need to worry themselves ar
10 odd thousand clerks and snporuu
morories whom the enforcement of th
measure will affect. As far as an ;
ne else Is concerned it is harmless.
A DILL la now pending in the login
aturo that will relieve the connell
jrcat deal and enable them to carr
ut needed improvements , It prc
Ides for a special levy of four miller
or police and fire protection , indc
ondont of the general fnnd. Thi
will enable the council to make use c
ho general fnnd without figuring ou
t the end of each month what fixe
barges muit bo mot from it for paj
raent of the city employes.
A NUMBER of reasons suggest then
selves why the proposed commorcli
roaty with Mexico ought to bo rotlfio
> y the senate. The first Is the coi
talnty which it promises that Amer !
cans can under its operations at one
control the greater portion of th
trade of the country to the oxclnsio
of the Gorman and English houses wh
have monopolized all of iUoommerch
advantages. The now treaty proposi
a limited reciprocity in trade advai
tagoa between the two countries , allot
Ing alarge number of specified artloli
to be admitted ou both sldea free <
duty. Twenty-eight unmanufaoturo
Mexican articles are put on the fn
Uit by Ita Una * . Ax twenty of the ,
are already unaffected by our tariff
s difficult to see how , in this Instance ,
the industrial barons and Washington
can make much capital out of thoii
stock cry of the dangera of nnro
strictod trade ,
The opening of Mexico to onr mnnu
acturora and capitalists will bo a real
and substantial gain to the people ol
ho country at largo. Mexico is civ
ering npon a now stage of internal
lovolopmont. Both her imports one
exports are steadily increasing , whlh
American produce &nd manufacture !
mvo gained steadily in favor during
ho past four years. The country ii
icing rapidly opened up bj
extension of three great railroad ays
ems largely built by American capl
alNhat possible reasons can b <
offered for onr people's refusal tc
brow down all the artificial barrier :
which have boon placed In the way ol
rado , and to open np now and oxton-
Ivo foreign markets for our produce
and manufactures ? Under the provi
ions of the treaty the advantage !
com to bo all on our side. Neglect tc
olza npon so favorable an opportunity
will be scarcely less than criminal ,
GENERAL HAZEN and the signal ser
vice are placed in a very unfavorable
ight by the Investigations of Oon-
; rossman Boltzhoovor , of Pennsyl
vania. It seems as if since General
rloyor's death the service had become
horoughly demoralized. Every one
cnowa that the character of the pre
dictions is not what it was. Thoii
rrors have become subjects of com
mon remark and the predictions are
radically worthless. Very few peo-
> lo now read the signal service prodlo-
, lens to BCO what the weather is golnp
o be , while very many observe the
weather to note how the signal service
las boon mistaken in its forecasts.
A good gaossor will make more hits
n a month than the signal service will ,
'ho trouble seems to be , first , that
[ azon Is entirely unfit for his position ,
iat ho has used his office to fill the
orvico with favorites and aupernnmor-
ties , and that ho has devoted more
mo to endeavoring to secure favor-
bio congressional legislation than he
ias tn maintaining and increasing the
fficioncy of his department. It lookt
s if a change will bo necessary and
iat no change will bo effective whict
oos not begin with changing the
load of the bureau.

Air from "r Uonco. "
f you want to play the game in the wa ;
way to bring you fame ,
And yon have of cash to spare ,
Do not bother with the fools who havi
written out the tules ,
But drop in an easy chair ;
1'111 ' you np little "jigger , " just to anl
innte your figure ,
And banter them all to play ;
fever mind the art and science put Ii
luok your whole reliance
In the Wattersonlan way.
Then perhaps some one may say ,
As you make your mystlo play ,
'Any one can understand he aunt hold i
mighty hand ;
So , no matter what's dealt to me ,
From his manner and expression , I nn
forced to the conceeeioo , '
lie may take that pot from me ! "
When you get a little hand that you thlnl
will never stand ,
Don't give up your ante ;
rust remember it's a law everything is ii
the draw -
And call ( or the usual three ;
.f the size and colors differ , moke yon
drink a llttlo stlffer ,
Pot a bad look in your eye ;
With the swagger of a duffer take th
chances of a bluffer ,
And stack your chips on high ,
for perhaps some one may say ,
As you make that sort cf play ,
'Ills nerve Is so delicious 'twould delud
the most suspicious ,
And he hold the edge on me :
From the way he sips his whisky I am cer
tain It's tro risky ,
That youBf man's raise to see. "
If yon try a iluth and fall , and are let
with hobby tall ,
Let your courage leave you not ;
Take another drink of liquor , never le
your spirit filoker ,
And lay for tha lovely pot ,
With a mighty show of fire raise the rlffl
higher higher
Never mind how the other one plays ;
Knock your knuckles on the table put u
all that you are able
And ask , "Who wants to raise ! "
Then , surely all will say ,
As you play that "nervy" way :
'Surely he U no beginner , but a hardens
old sinner-
He can't bo deceiving me
[ may deserve a censure , but I dar'sen' '
make the venture ;
Hit game's too deep for me ! "
When the game has reached its clo <
where you'll stand , nobody know
Then , call by the Restaurant.
Order oysters , crab nnd pheasant , and tb
pomplno so pletsant ,
And the tender-hearted pate fols grai ;
Thou , a little nip of liquor juit to wor
the stomach quicker
And , along about two or three ,
You should saunter home ti bed , with
towel round your head ,
To your wife and fainileo.
Then perhaps your wife will say :
"It's his .
juit guileless way.
It's perfectly apparent hes a recula
knight errant
In the cause ol chnrltee ;
Yet , I can't help being jwslous of the Mi
ions and Odd Fellows ,
Who have kept him out from rael"
