Special Correspondence
The house spent tho greater part of
last week in the consideration of tho
revenue bill several evening sessions
being hold for that purpose Great
headway was made and it is expected
that tho house will finish tho considera
tion of the bill this week and send it
along to tho senate The members of
tho latter body have been carefully
watching the amendments offered by
tho house and tho general belief is that
they will be generally accepted there
and the bill passed on short consid
eration
Some of tho objections urged against
tho now bill at tho start were that it
would increase the taxes of the farmers
by taking valuation in the winter when
they had a largo amount of grain on
hand This was changed by the house
and the date of the assessment will bo
the same as under the old law Stock
under six months of age is expressly
exempted from assessment Tho propo
sition to mako taxes a first lien on per
sonal property from and after tho first
of April was changed so that the date
is now the first of October
The principal contest in the consider
ation of the bill therefore hung on the
proposition advanced by the Democratic
platform that railroads should b o
assessed on tho basis of their stocks and
bonds The Fusionists were lined up
on this question by their party whip
and some few Republicans were also
caught by the plausible argument The
debate on the question lasted two days
and on the final vote the fusion arrange
ment was defeated by a vote of 58 to 36
the Douglas county members generally
joining with the Democrats
During the progress of the discussion
on this bill it developed that the largest
railroad system in the state would under
the democratic experiment be assessed
practically on a capitalization of 810000
its stocks and bonds having been all
withdrawn by the Northern Security
company a uon resident corporation
This and some other features of tho
proposition showed that the Democratic
amendment was either foolish or pur
posely vicious The leading fusionists
admitted that they were advocating it
in order to furnish an issue for the com
ing campaign The bill as finally
amended in this section provides for
riving at the valuation of railroads from
every obtainable source being more
stringent than the old law
An attempt was made during the
week to have a sifting committee ap
pointed in tho house but the move was
a failure The members decided that
until the revenue bill was out of the
way and a start was made on the regular
appropriation bills there was no need
for the services of a sifting committee
It is expected that the appropriation
bills will be taken up this week There
will be an effort to dispose of them and
get them over to the senate in time so
as to avoid the haste and confusion
which has always marred and some
times disgraced the closing hours of
past sessions
Tho senate has introduced 303 bills
and tho house 487 Of these 19 have
passed both houses and have been
signed by tho governor One bill has
received thejveto of the executive
The sifting committee of the senate
comprises Warner of Dakota Wall of
Sherman Day of Nuckolls Way of
Platte Hasting of Butler ONeill of
Lancaster Hall and Saunders of Doug
las It will be the duty of this com
mittee to examine the Dills on general
file and decide each day which ones
shall come up for consideration
One of the bill sifted out by the
senate committee is II I 13G provid
ing for tho depositing of county money
in banks on the payment of 2 per cent
interest and providing that the money
be deposited in banks outside the county
where the county banks have pooled and
refused to pay interest as has often
been the case heretofore There is no
question that this bill will reach the
governor in a few days will result in
the correction of tho abuse of handling

Back Pay For Old Soldiers
Washington March 11 Shortly be
foro leaving Washington for Nebraska
Represontativo olcct G W Norris of tho
Fifth district received a letter from an
old soldier in McCook enclosing a circu
lar letter from n firm of lawyers in this
city Tho circular lettor was to tho
effect that tho veteran was entitled to
collect a sum of money from tho United
States government and tho attorneys
agreed to mako tho collection upon a
contingent feo of 40 per cent Tho
amount of the alleged claim and its
naturo wero not stated and tho old sol
dier was ignorant of any monoy duo him
from Uncle Sam
Mr Norris was unablo to attend to
the matter beforo ho departed and
Senator Dietrich consented to investi
gate it Tho result of tho investigation
reveals tho fact that a number of old
soldiers have been credited with certain
amounts of back pay because tho dato
of muster has been found to have been
earlier than tho dato formerly ascer
tained and for other reasons Tho
amount duo any one soldier is scarcely
over more than 100 or S200 and tho
cases in point aro not numerous
It is thought by tho war department
ofiicials that several firms of attorneys
have secured lists of names of old sol
diers probably from clerks on tho in
side and have sent their circular letters
broadcast over tho country in tho hope
of rounding up a largo numbor of
clients for it has been found that many
old soldiers who havo received similar
letters havo nothing coming to them
from the government upon tho grounds
suggested In a number of cases ac
cording to officials at tho war depart
ment veterans havo received five or six
letters from as many different lawyers
or firms asking permission to mako col
lections alleged to bo duo
