Fnom recent experiments made

pleted last week, between the larg
est stock owners of Cheyenne, Keith

The news comes from Ft. Belknap
Montana, under date of the 14th, that
Sitting Bull has crossed the border,
with 450 lodges of Indians, besides
large numbers of Indians from the
Britibh tribes. They claim that they
are in pursuit of Buffalo, which have
traveled south and are not known to
be found north of the Missouri river.
They all prefer to be friendly, but
agents and others who understand
the red man's character well, fear
that the presence of so many in one
vicinity means hostility. It is
claimed that the government, in
dealing with Sitting Bull, will re
quire him and his people to surren
der as prisoners of war, or else go
back again into Canada.
The Selection of U. . Senator.
We have not as yet sceu any
movement made iu the legislature
towards submitting the selection of
United States Senator to a vote of
the people, as may be done under
our present constitution. Doubtless,
most of the politicians of the Stato
will be opposed to such a method
of selecting a senator, but it is con
sonaut with the spirit of a popular
government, aud the general assem
bly should give the subject that
attention which its importance de
mauds. The election of U. S. Sen
ator has cost Nebraska more than
any other oue thing. When the
time is nigh at hand the political
barometer shows signs of the ap
proaching storm. All the way up,
from the precinct caucus, through
the county and district conventions,'
to the legislature and senate, the
avenues are watched, and every in
fluence of social aud business life
brought to bear upon the final issue.
And it is said that the "backers" of
candidates have not scrupled to use
money for the purchase of votes in
the general assembly. It is patent
to the world that ail needed legisla
tion lags when there is a Senator to
elect; that from the opening of the
session everything is traded for
Senator, and until the better part of
the session is past, scarcely anything
else can be thought of.
Even now the wires are being laid
for the next contest two years hence.
The people of the State have passed
upon the questiou, and have said by
their fundamental law that the leg
islature may provide for the sub
mission of this question, and we
insist that there is no better time
than now to begin the proposed re
form. Gentlemen of the legislature,
do your successors in office a great
favor, and the people of the State a
substantial benefit by passing a law
in accordance with the constitution.
"Tax Payer" Kcprlnw to Sing u
Sons to the "Jouruat"
Audience.
Editor Journal: I am an old
man, a farmer, unused to newspa
per writing or controversy, and like
Paul, desirous of peace, but I have
always taken a deep interest in pub
lic matters, and there is a subject
that, I think, at least iu some of its
bearings, deserves more notice than
it receives in the public prints,
which, as a rule, are satisfied with
recording facts, and echoing what
their proprietors suppose to be the
public mind. As common-carriers
of opinions and news they are very
excellent, aud I purpose, with your
permission Mr. Editor, to give my
opinion in the Journal on a matter
that concerns everybody.
It is well known that we Ameri
cans, as a people, have been plung
ing headlong into debt, aud that
nearly every town, county and State
is "up to the eyes" in over-due
warrants, in ten, tweuty, aud thirty-
year bonds, in certificates of in
debtedness, etc. Indeed this pile is
so high in places that it threatens
the very life of the community, and
is an encouragement to dishonesty;
aud tax-ridden people are begin
ning to question whether the flood
of repudiation which would sweep
these obligations into oblivion is
not preferable to the torch of con
fiscation, which is carried farther
every year, and which threatens to
destroy our institutions themsolves
in its insatiable flame.
Look at our county indebtedness
(some $S0,000 isn't it?) and what
have we to show for it? A little
Court House, a bridge across the
Platte, another over the Loup (both
of which ought to have been built
by the State) and a few little bridges
through the county a slim array
for $S0,000 of debt, bearing interest
probably at ten per cent., or $S,000
a year. Where is the value receiv
ed? Your village of Columbus, I
beg pardon, it is called a city, how
much indebtedness have you? and
what is there in public sight for it
all, except a fire apparatus and a
a town-hall that must be an eye-sore
to every tax-payer?
And how is it with the State? It
seems that there has been a consid
erable balauce iu the trensury not
withstanding the fact that, if the
Omaha Herald is correct iu its fig
ures, it takes upwards of $900,000
a year to ruu our State government,
while that of New York costs but
$1,100,000. Why such a balance in
the treasury, and still continue to
levy heavy State taxes? The late
developments, going to show that
the State treasurer and others have
been speculating on the funds in his
care is sullicient reason. Somebody
is interested in making a large levy,
and having a good deal of money
on hands. Wouldn't it be a pretty
good thing for you, Mr. Editor, and
for me, if we could borrow money
at three or four cent., and loan it
again at 12 to 30 percent.? I am
glad to see that the Columbus bank
is not in that list of Stale robbers.
Does any one suppose that the law
will be rigorously enforced upon
them, and upon the county treasur
ers and school-district treasurers
who have been guilty of the same
crime? The precedents arc mostly
the other way. The prevalent opin
ion has been all along that the public
is a goose in more respects than one,
but tax-thieves will not always rest
so easy iu their little feather beds,
thus acquired. The "public" is a
very singular creature ; when peace
able it may be likened to the gentle
fowl which allows the good wife to
pluck its downy coat, but when
maddened it is the ungovernable
tiger, fierce, merciless, unreason
ing. I see that I have exceeded the
limit I had set for myself, but this
may serve as a prelude to the sub
ject I wish to write about, viz: The
duties of government; the obliga
tions of citizens; the right and limit
of taxation, &c. Yours,
Tax Payer.
Legislative Itasincss.
In committee of the whole the
capitol bill was discussed, and it was
finally recommended that the bill
pass with the tax reduced from oue
mill to three-fourths of a mill. The
friends of the bill consider it safe.
Mr. Sparks has introduced a bill
providing for the pcrmaneut loca
tion of the capilal of Nebraska.
This bill proposes to give the people
a chance to vote ou the question of
relocating the capital.
Mr. Dempster introduced a bill to
establish a slate reform school at
Kearney.
Mr. Windham introduced a reso
lution to appoint a special commit
tee of five to consider the propriety
of enacting a military law for the
state of Nebraska.
The capitol appropriation bill
again discussed in committee of the
whole on the 28th; several amend
ments were proposed, and tho mem
bers took occasion to express their
views upon the amendments as well
as the merits of the bill. On the
amendment to insert $75,000 instead
of $65,000, Mr. Slocum spoke in op
position to the amendment, and in
fact was in favor of the $100,000.
Mr. Kennedy thought we were
not yet ready for the erection of a
new capitol, and he felt that he must
record his vote again6t the bill as it
now stands.
Mr. Graybill was opposed to the
amendment offered, aud to the en
tire bill.
Mr. Scott was not in favor of so
large a sum as $100,000, nor yet did
he favor no appropriation. He be
lieved the capitol should remain
where it was.
Mr. Ryan of Platte, said ho was
unalterably opposed to the bill. lie
had observed tho mysterious work
ings of Lincoln's powerful lobby.
All sorts of trades were being made.
There were normal school appro
priations, reform school appropria
tions and all kinds of appropriations.
If the legislature passes this capilal
appropriation it opens the way to
the expenditure of $100,000. Gen
tlemen should remember that they
were sent here to vole conscien
tiously and not to swap for this and
that, at the expense of lax-payers.
Mr. Baker read a long speech from
manuscript, opposiug the bill.
Mr. Frederick opposed the bill.
On a motion to indefinitely post
pone tho bill, we were sorry to find
the name of Mr. Loveland in the
negative, but his vote has been fully
explained and his true position is
fully tested by recording his vote
against the bill on its final passage.
Mr. Van Wyck in the senate by
resolution asked for a bill for a more
equitable and just assessment of
taxes, and to prevent treasurers
from loaning public funds.
Mr. Ciarkson, a resolution for a
bill making grave robbing a peni
tentiary offence.
Mr. Van Wyck introduced a bill
regulating transportation of passen
gers by railroad.
Tho capitol appropriation bill
passed the house on the 30th by a
vote of 43 to 30.
On the same day the temperance
bill was ordered to be engrossed for
a third reading.
The bill creating the county of
Nance has passed both houses.
The prohibitory liquor bill under
went several amendments and a
lengthy discussion iu committee of
the whole on the 30th. Finally a
motion was made by Mr. Vander
m an that the committee rise and
report the bill back to the house
with the recommendation that it
pass, on which motion the vole
stood as follows : Yeas 44, nays 3G.
Mr. Loveland and Rjan voting nay.
Mr. Stone introduced a bill to
protect depositors in banks.
Mr. Sparks introduced a resolu
tion for a special committee of five
to be appointed by the chair to in
quire into the sale of lands donated
to tho state for capitol purposes, how
much of the same has been sold, how
the proceeds have been applied, how
much remains unsold aud the value
of it. Resolution carried.
Lincoln Correspondence.
January 2Sth, 1879.
Editor Journal: A resolution
has been offered in the llouse,which
will interest many of our people;
wiil be the cause of investigating a
matter which is interesting the peo
ple more at this time than any other
subject before this body.
Iicsolvcd, That a Select Committee
of live members be appointed to
inquire into the facis with reference
to the Ireight aud passenger tariff
charged by the different railroad
campanics within this State, and
report the facts found to the House,
at the earliest date possible, aud to
report whether iu their opinion the
freight and passenger tariffs on ei
ther of them so charged, are un
reasonable compared with the finan
cial condition ot the people, and if
unreasonable tariffs are charged, to
report whether the same can be
regulated by law, so as to practic
ally benefit the people having a just
regard to all the interests of the
State. The motion to adopt was
agreed to, and the Speaker appoint
ed as such committee, Messrs. Scott,
Loveland, Trowbridge, Dempster,
and Browulee.
This matter is being fully investi
gated by the committee, and up to
the present lime the prospect is not
"flattering'' for legislation. Scott
and Loveland take a stand in favor
of legislation, while the remainder
arc against. The grounds for their
taking this stand against legislation
are, First, there is u prospect of
there beiug more roads built in the
State within the next two years than
ever before in the same length of
time, therefore any legislation in
regard to reducing rates would de
ter this movement and the western
part of the State be injured thereby.
Second, there are but two roads in
the State that are paying any divi
dends, and all branch roads are at
the present not charging iny more
than roads in other States, where
they have more business to support
them. There is a bill now on gen
eral file establishing passenger rates
at three cents a mile, and fixing the
freight rates at five cents per ton
for first ten miles and three cents
per ton thereafter. This will in
crease the rates on the U. P. R. R.
fifteen dollars per car between
Omaha and Kearney, and about the
same between Omaha, Columbus,
and Schuyler. The U. P. officials
claim they aro giving low rates on
coal which is three-fourths cents
per ton per mile. The majority of
this committee arc personally in
terested in the building of railroads,
as they aro at present living off from
the line of any road but bavo one in
prospect the coming year. Also, a
majority of tho House are in about
the same position, oven those re
siding on a railroad are looking for
competing lines. Thereforo tho mi
nority of this committee have very
little chance, even if they offer a
minority report. I have seen a
number of letters from "Graugers"
in the hands of their representatives,
instructing them not to support any
bill that will create a fight with
railroads, for reasons as stated.
Jiepresentative Ryan tried very
hard to-day, while working in the
committee of the whole on revision
of the statutes, to amend by adding,
"and the mayor shall have jurisdic
tion as may be vested in him by
ordinance over all territory within
one-half mile of the corporate limits
of said city for all purposes except
revenue," but was voted down for
no other reason only that it was
printed aud they did not want to
change it. This, you will discover,
is for the purpose of shutting out
one of the .worst nuisances we have
iu Columbus, that is Seuecal's hay
stack, a nuisance which the Council
have no power to abate, and which
is the worst fire-trap in the State.
Another object was to protect the
city in collecting the amount due
for license from circuses.
Ono of the amusing features of
the legislature is the 3d House, who
meet about once a week in the cap
itol building. The meeting is pre
sided over by a Squatter Governor,
Speaker, etc., and opens out with a
governor's message which is im
mense

The capitol appropriation bill was

carried, but think it will not pass in
the Senate. Yours,

Capitol Appropriation Hill.
The Omaha Republican takes
rather strong ground in favor of the
appropriation of $100,000 to build a
wing to the capitol. It gives as its
reasons for the views that it advanc
es, that the capitol building is un
safe and inadequate aud that the
question of capital removal cannot
be intelligently acted upon for twen
ty years to come.
We readily admit the first propo
sition, and favor an appropriation
often or fifteen thousand dollars to
put the capitol in repair. The sec
ond proposition is scarcely worthy
of consideration. We believe the
question of capita removal can be
intelligently settled within the next
few years, and not only believe that
it can be but that it shoxdd be. The
people of this state know fully as
well to-day where the centre of pop
ulation will ultimately be, as they
will know in fifteen years from this
date. It is a question which will be
agitated and must be settled within
a few years and the proposed ap
propriation only increases the diffi
culties of the situation and adds to
the burdens of the people.
Let the present building be so im
proved that it will be sate and ade
quate for the next few years, but let
us have no appropriation for build
ing a wing to a, future capitol build
iny. We feel sure, we express the
sentimculs of the people of Central
Nebraska when we sav, that under
existing conditions the proposed
appropriation is unwise and ex
travagant. The above, from the pen of Broth
er McCunc of the Butler County
Republican, shows that his head "is
level." His reasoning is sound ; but
then what do the friends of the
measure have to do with sound
reasoning?
