Thursday, June 29, 1893. An income tax would be a very nice thing. At present those who have no income are the ones who pay the taxeF. A law which would compel people of means to pay their share of the public expense would be a great improvement Over' what we have at present. Atlee Hart has been sentenced to serve one year in the penitentiary of Iowa by the court at LaMars for ex torting money as noted in these columns before. He gets olT very easily and should learn a lesson and not do so any more. It is not known whether the rest of the indictments against him will be prosecuted or not. The tide of gold hat turned and the stream of .yellow metal which has been flowing from the shores of the United States to the treasure houses of Europe now leads to the United States from Europe. The opinion of financiers seems to be that the financial stringency is over and from now on there will be no trouble. A laree proportion of the trouble which has been experienced has been caused by people getting excited. Justice has aain been set at naught by the governor of Illinois pardoning the anarchists who were sent to the peniten tiary from Chicago. There is no reason why the men turned loose upon society will not at once return to .the work which they had in hand at the time at which they were arrested. They and their followers have now a precedent to which tbey can refer showing that if they are arrested, tried and convicted they would shortly regain their liberty. The sooner the pardoning power is re stricted the be tter it will be . for the law abiding people of the country. Senator Stewart has a column article in the last issue of his party organ in which be denies all The Journal said in regard to him and a "good deal more. The burden of argument in the article is that the editor of this paper did not tell the truth about him and, -assuming an air of injured innocence, he urges peo ple not to believe the statements of The JOCRNAL in future. It is the same dodge as his party organ tried the week before by -crying "fool and liar" against the editor of this paper. The statement that he never ran for (be state senate in an eastern district and nferer ran for any office as a republi can may be true, but the editor of the Platte Count Sentittel, early in 1891 had this to sa' of him: "We know him like "a book. twice "bos he aspired to serve his state in the 'upper house of the legislature and "twice has the star of his ambition gone "down in gloom.'" As to his running on a republican ticket Mr. Stewart told the editor of this paper that he had always been a rank republican until he went" into the alliance, ferbaps there was the same amount of truth in that state ment of Stewart's that there was iq the statement in a former letter in the pop Organ when he said that no steps were taken in the impeachment matter until tbey (the pop legislators who were Working up the farce) had positive proof of the rascality of the state officials. As to the freight law the provisions in such as will allow the roads to charge a higher rate on what the people of bis district have to ship. It is on the plan of securing the front door of a treasure house and leaving other avenues of ingress and egress wide open. Had the great statesman been half aa smart M he had led people to believe bim to be be would have guarded against 'such loopholes, and if be had been sincere in bis, work he would not have supported sucb a measure. . , From what he says about not having been called down by the president of the senate Mr. Stewart seems to have very peculiar ideas. When a person insists no a motion being put when he is in formed by the chair tlt it cannot be . entertained, most folks consider that the one so insisting is called down probably he calls such a proceeding by low other name. The statesman from Dead man nses the arguments of "gold-bug," "corporation tool," etc., because Thb Joukkal does "ot endorse his financial vagaries, and questions his since rety of purpose in bis wenc pretended to be to imp M people of his district in the matter of railroad .Ifctet. 8ucb arguments do not call for , Stewart vidtnUy flosijaat. Htta to have bis official acts criticised and ud- wsr those conditions he should retire be feted doors through which none cm pass sfrroVMsd with ths grip ami De also says be never voted for Bill tor. ' FbrtMs bei Mtfttei to credit But be M an MW nop prMtcaunf Another reason has been found why people should keep -way from circuses. One of the ten.. ,i wickedness was struck by two bolts of lightning at River Falls, Wis., a few days ago. Such warnings should not be allowed to go unnoted. Germany is suffering from the worst drouth known in fifty years. The stock is perishing and there is no prospect of relief from the continued lack of mois ture. The famine will be certain to follow and great suffering and loss of are inevetable. TheU. P. andB. & M. railroads are gettingTeady for the losses which they seem th expect to lesult from the new freight law when it goes into effect and have taken off a number of trains on the various lines operated by them. So far the Elkborn has done nothing of the kind. It is rumored that one train a day is to be the program on this line when the new order of things come, but the rumor is not credited as it seems to have no foundation. Auditor Moore and Worlds Fair Com missioner Garneau are having a little scrap through the columns of the daily papers in regard to the vouchers pre sented by the latter in his official capac ity. It has been demonstrated on sever.il occasions that Mr. Moore is conducting his office on thoroughly business principles and in the interest of the state and he quite likely knows what he is about in the matter. His action is certainly commendable. As the new law, which makes the state authorities the dispensers of all the liquors of the state of South Carolina, takes effect on July 1st, the work of pre paring for the event is going on in great style. As no treating will be allowed and the dispenser will have no object in in disposing of his. wares, as he will have a fixed salary, it would seem but reason able if the amount of liquor consumed as a beverage in that state would be considerably reduced. The experiment will be watched with a great deal of in terest by all who are interested in social reform, " The county attorney of Brown county is after the president and cashier of the defunct State Bank of Ainsworth and F. B. Tiffany and C. J. Alton have been arrested for crooked work connected therewith. It is right and proper if they were violating the law and the people were defrauded in consequence that they suffer for their dishonesty. If the time ever comes when a man will be punished for such crimes, no matter how much money he has or how much he has been honored in the past, it will surely lessen the number of defaulters and bank wreckers. It is quite evident that every one who is guilty of such crimes believes that the money that .he beats people out of will save him from 'heavy pun ishment. It ia common remark when a crime is committed and the purpetrat or is a person of means "Oh, he has money enough to get clear.".; That kind of a sentiment does not tend to sustain the dignity or honor of the courts. Illustrations of the fool economy of the pops in the late- legislature ane .be-; ginning to come to light in a very un pleasant and unprofitable manner. On account of the reduction in Jhe appro priation made for running state institu tions it has been found necessary to shut down operations in some of the shops of the reform school at Kearney. The great success of the superintendent of that institution in reforming the bad boys and girls who are sent there lies in the fact that he keeps them busy and the pops will expect him to accomplish just as much in the line of reform with he boys in his charge with nothing to do as he has in the past when he had enough for them to do to keep them out of- mis chief, and when he fails the pops will try to make .out that it.is all his fault, simply because he is a republican'. ' It is not.likely that it will be long before the same kind of retrenchment will have to be resorted to at the other state institu tions and the result will be so detri mental that it will cost the taxpayers much, more than it would had the ap propriation been liberal enough to have allowed the institutions to have been maintained at the highest point of pro ficiency, ,,'.'. What Mosher Deserve. Omaha Bee. A Lincoln hack driver has been sen tenced to the penitentiary for seven years for assisting another man to rob a drunken passenger of a $5 bill. Suppose tbis kind of justice "was administered to a bank president who' has embezaeled and stolen $300,000. Let us compute. If a man. stealing 5 gets seven years , in Om penitentiary, a man stealing $100 would have to serve tweoty times, seven yean. If be stole $8,000 r would serve four hundred times nevwn years. If he stote $20,00 he would serve four thous and times seven years.
