It is the heaviest storm for Lvrcniy
Capital Removal.
Mr. Seasions, of Lincoln, has al
ready introduced a bill imposing a
special tax lor the erection of a
capital building at a cost of $100,000.
The bill was read the first time.
Uiider the provisions of the new
constitution might it not be highly
proper aud judicious first to perma
nently locate the capital and then
impose the tax? "We will not now
dispute the wisdom and justice ol
a measure that shall require every
citizen of the State to contribute a
share, according to the amount of
his taxable property, to aid in the
erection of a capital building, and
thereby remove any strile that
might arise from large contributions
of money from special localities to
control the location of the capital at
a place far from tho ceutre of the
State. On the part of citizens out
side of Lincoln we are glad that no
imprudent haste has been manitcst
ed to agitate the question of the
removal or rc-Iocation of the capital
or seat of government for this State.
Considerable time having interven
ed since the adoption of the new
constitution making provision for
tho removal of the seat of govern
ment, it would not now be improper
or hasty to take legislative action,
which may be necessary to bring
about a removal and re-location of
the capital. Mr. Sessions, we are
6ure, would not like to be the au
thor of eucIi legislation, but there
are other members of the present
legislature who should take prompt
action to secure the proper legisla
tion under the new constitution to
bring about a removal or re-location
of the capital. If tf e capital is to
remain at Lincoln the citizens ot
tho State ought to know that fact
before $100,000 of taxes are levied
and expeuded there in erecting a
suitable capital building. The bill
of Mr. Sessions is proper and right,
to go hand in hand with au other
bill providing for the proper action
to remove or re-locate the seat ol
government of the State. The pres
ent session is a very favorable time
to take that action, and a bill should
at once be introduced to submit the
question of removal to a vote of the
electors of the State, especially as
no vote can be taken upon it except
at a general election, aud the ques
tions of places and number of possi
ble elections to be held renders it
rather complicated and may yet
consume years in its adjustment.
If no proper legislation is taken
at the present session, two years
more probably may intervene be
fore any law can be passed so as to
reach the question of removing or
re-locating the capital of the State,
and the bill now introduced by Mr.
Sessions to levy a tax of $100,000 to
construct aud finish a capital build
ing looks very much like the opera
tion of putting the cart before the
horse. Let us have the location first
and then the tax to enable the State
to construct the necessary buildings.
As Columbus will probably be one
of the locations to be voted for, it
would in our opinion be proper that
the represcutativo from Platte
county should at the present session
interest himself in having a bill
passed submitting the question to a
vote of the people at the next gen
eral eJetiou, and thus dispose of
the question at this session.
A meeting of the citizens of Sew
ard was held Tuesday evening ol
last week to confer on the question
of voting bonds to donate to the
A. & N. R. R. Hon. 5. B. Galey,
attorney for the company, was
present, aud among other matters
of local interest to Seward, stated
that "the proposed road would have
no interests identical with those of
the B. & M. or U. P. in its manage
ment; that it was a competing line;
that it had been built into Liucolu
several years ago as a competing
line with the B & M., and had so
remained, to the great annoyance or
the B. & M. The meeting appoint
ed a committee of five "to ascertain
under what influence the road
would be managed, aud whether
the present movement was in the
interest of lines controlling the
trade at present, and the prospect
for the road remaining a competing
line." This we gather from the
Seward Ileporter.
Gov. Nance's inaugural message
was delivered last Thursday to a
very crowded house. As is highly
proper, the governor's heart-topic
is the settlement of the vacant lauds
of the State, aud "a large degree of
liberality in all legislation affecting
I the agricultural and horticultural
interests of the State." He touches
upon the protection of our frontier
borders from Iudian depredations,
and says the power of the State and
general governments should be
available for that purpose, and
heartily favors the .speedy and cer
tain punishment of criminals. "We
believe there is no sentiment ex
pressed in the message but will
receive a hearty response from ev
ery good citizen of the common
wealth.
We shall think it strange, and the
people of northern, central and wes
tern Nebraska will think it strange
if the legislature shall consent to a
law levyiug a hundred thousand
dollars tax for the erection of a new
capitol without a bill for re-locating
the capital. Let the present build
ing be made to do duty until the
people of tho State are read' to
place the capital the capitol where
they will probably remain.
From Fort Robinson, Neb., un
der date of the 11th, we have this
intelligence from the escaping In
dians, that they were found and im
mediately surrounded with the in
tention of getting them to surrender,
but the Indians declined. They
were afterwards attacked, aud it is
now authentically reported that the
number of Indians killed is fort,
fifteen wounded, and from forty to
fifty recaptured. Since the difficulty
commenced, the following soldiers
have been killed aud wounded:
Killed Good and Smith, Company
A, Third cavalry ; Everett, Company
H. "Wounded Corporal Pulvcr,
Company A; private Emery, Co. C.
Red Bear, a chief of Red Cloud's
band, arrived in camp and observ
ing his sister wounded, shed tears
and called her a bad ?quaw. A rel
ative of Red Cloud was killed.
Trouble is feared from Spotted Tail
and Red Cloud's bands.
The Supreme Court of the United
States has at last made a final decis
ion declaring the act of Congress
constitutional which prohibits po
lygamy in this country. The decree
will doubtless have a very serious
influence on the Mormon population
of Utah, aud their future course will
be looked for with great interest by
the people of the "West. If the law
now made clear on the subject of
polygamous marriages is enforced
as it doubtless will be, it will natur
ally create a revolution in the social
affairs of Utah territory ; under the
circumstances, unless further legisla
tion takes place, the Supreme Court
decision will be the basis of endless
litigation lor estates heretofore
claimed by illegitimate heirs.

Oar Lincoln Letter.
January llth, 1879.
Editor Journal : This is a very
quiet day at the capitol, as most
of the members have left to spend
the Sabbath with their families (that
is those that are possessed with the
aforesaid.)
There has been no business of im
portance transacted except the per
manent organization of the two
Houses, and appointment of the sev
eral standing committees.
These were mostly appointed
through a system of "swapping" or
compromising, brought about by
there being so many candidates for
speaker. Two gentlemen from Lan
caster being candidates for speaker,
very humbly took back seats by
being put on committee of Public
Lands and Buildings.
Scott, the candidate from York,
was very ready aud willing to throw
his streugth to Mathcwson for the
chairmanship of the judiciary com
mittee, in consideration therefor.
Owing to this fact, the members
who were working in the interest
of Mathcwson before he came down
here, received that which none of
the compromise men asked for.
The committee on railroads are
all good men, but (with one excep
tion) are either directly or indirect
ly interested iu railroads iu the
State.
When the bill for appropriation
for building wing on the present
capitol was presented by the gen
tleman from Lancaster (Mr. Ses
sions) it became very apparent why
they wished to be on that commit
tee. But time will develop what it
will amount to.
Several very amusing incidents
have come to notice during the ses
sion. A member from one of the
rural districts, came into the Hall on
Wednesday morning, one day be
hind time, some person having told
him they did not meet until Thurs
day. Such a look of astonishment
as can only he imagined but not de
scribed! "Why, when did you all
come down, I supposed I did not
have to come down until to-morrow."
The effect on the little circle
of Iriends about him can bt imagin
ed. One of the most efficient offi
cers in the House is D. B. Slaughter,
better known as "Gad," having he
come almost a necessity; being well
informed as to the rules, and a
"budget of information," for those
seeking light.
Our Representative, Hon. T. C.
Ryan, occupies his position near the
Speaker; he looks as pleasant and
smiling as ever, and is a general fa
vorite with the members. Repre
sentative Lovelaud occupies his t-eat
near Ryan, in order to confer on ail
matters ot importance. A. E. Pink
ii ey has been appointed clerk lor J u
diciary committee.
Among ihe prominent members
are P. J. Dempster, of Harlan Co.,
a rising young lawyer of Republi
can City. We think the Speaker
showed good judgment in putting
him on the Judiciary committee.

Against I'oljgamy.
A decision was rendered this af

preme court in the cae of George
Reynolds against the United Slates,
brought here by an appeal from the
supreme court of Utah. This case
involves the whole question of po
lygamy iu the territories and con
stitutionality of the laws passed by
congress for its suppression. Rey
nolds was indicted by the grand
jury for contracting a bigamous
marriage. He was tried in the
Third Judicial court of Utah and
found guilty. He appealed to the
supreme court of the territory and
finally this court, which uow affirms
the judgments of the lower tribu
nals, and decides that congress had
power to pass laws prohibiting po
lygamous marriages in'Ulah, and
that such laws are constitutional.
The Amount of Gold JPnlu Out
at the Sub-'l'reuhury.
New York, Jan. 6. One of the
city banks made a mistake a few
days ago of exchanging double the
amount of gold for legal tender
notes that it intended, and to-day it
rectified the mistake by exchanging
$200,000 legal tender notes, for gold.
With exception of this the entire
demands on the treasury for gold in
exchange for legal tender notes has
to-day, up to noon, amounted to less
than $5,000. The sub-treasury is
not giving but clearing house cer
tificates to-day because the supply
of blanks has been temporarily.cx
hausted by the unexpectedly large
demand the last few days. A fresh
supply will be ready to-morrow.
