' . 'I , TAX.ATION. I
Perhaps no matter or public in-
teres is receiving as much attention -
tion just npw as , that of axation.
'l'hc operations of thc new rGve- '
nue law arc being- watched very

closely , and the fact that a great
deal of property is being discov-
ered that has heretofore never '
'becn ' ; issesscd' is responsible , , to
sonic extent at least , for the fear
that taxes arc going to bc much
highct than ever b rore. ' A . little
careful study of the situ tioti ,
however , will be- ' sufficient to
remove all such i111 i pressions. 'r he
main idea , hI making : ' . . a new revenue -
nue law was to secure thc proper
assessment of a large amount of
property that had been concealed

and on one pretext or another ,
been kept ofT thc sessor'R books.

DAMNATION. 'r ' I :
The editor of thc Geneva Gazette -
. ' ' 1 .
ctte uses considerable space 111
deploring the fact that Nebraska :
has no suitable building atl , : the
St. Louis cxposition. Hc says :
that thc Nebraska buildingtis , a
" j
shanty compared to the structures
I
that have been erected by 1 other
states , and that every Nebralan
who visits thc exposition llas'rea-
son , to ' - " feel . ' " ashamed , , of . . his state. ' .
'l'hen the , editor .of the Gazette
M gocs . Itta.blaiine.it.tll.on-to the
last republican legislature. . ' ' . . Hc
says that thc members thereof
\Vere , so , penurious and grouchy
and so devoid J of state pride , that
this great comn10nwc.alth has now
to , submit to degradation and
shamc. Had the last legislature
appropriated a large sum to build
a fine structure at thc exposition ,
the cclitqrof theGazette . would prob
ably ; fume 'viewed with alarm"
the reckless : ind extravagant
waste of thc people's money and
bitterly condcmned the lcgisla-
tors. All this goes to show that
at thc hands of , a , democratic editor -
tor , a republican legislature , is
sure to be eterually , and essentially -
tially ; damncd , ' for not doing what
it has not done , . as well as : , for
I
doing . what . it has donc.
'l'housands of barrels of \vhis-
key were burned in a distillery
fire at Peoria last w ek. 'l"his
loss will not cause an advance in
the ' price ol whiskey , but had it
been so much Standard oil t tat
was burned , Ida 1LTarbell would
have been furnished another

- The , post office department has
undertaken to suppress obscene

department ' merelyy : seconds the
motion of the better class Hof L
newspaper publishers throughout
the country , ' There was a time
when space cbttld bc bought . in
newsllaiicrs , " : > and used , . for any . purpose -

office department will not lack
help in the campaign it bas in-

'Whcn a man has learned to

lesson in dip\omacy. \ . .
. . . .
John L. Webster is still in the
race. ' Because Nebraska : has
twice failed to land : a president ,
is no reason why she should fail
to land a vice president.
The democrats lid not nomi-
nate a county ticket , but it docs
not matter. Smith , Hogrefe ,
Grinftead , Morrow aId 'l'ucker
arc practically elected , anyhow.
When a political faction sets
about to overthrow a "machine"
it is always with the in tention of
substituting one of their own in-
vcntions. A "machine" is only
obnoxious sc long as the other
fellow keeps his hand Ol thc
throttlc.
