mjma,-A xi Jims miKXin TIxjiI Capitol Appropriation. V The OsccoJa Record of March 21st contains the following couimu iftctlion from Senator Kimmcl, in explanation of his vote. VTe give it without comment in this place. Ed. Joukxai. "J Editor Record: Having been ta ken to task by some of the newspa pers in adjoining counties lor my vote on the capitol appropriation bill, although they gave no reason why 1 should have voted other wise, yet perhaps a word ol ex planation through your columns may not bo out of place. I presume that no one who I. as ever seen our prc-enL state capitol building, but will agiec with me that something larger ami better l required to meet the prccnt neces sities and fast increasing wants of onr growing state. .Now I take it that the same reasoning that will apply to individuals will apply to the state. "NTcn an iudividunl finds his house is too small to meet the wants and necessities of a large and last-increasing family, and he finds himself able lo build a larger and better one, docs he not usually go on and build without taking into consideration the fact that he may some day in tiic future take a notion lo change to some other location? This then is oue of my principal reasons for voting for the bill. The 6tatc truly needs more room for the transaction of its business; the leg islative halls arc cutirely inadequate to accommodate the present mem bership, to say nothing of an in crease which we will soon have. Each and every one of the public oflice3 is too much hampered for the transaction of the business nec essary lo be done in them. There is not a single committee room in the building, and the 6tate was com pelled to pay from Iwo to five dol lars per day for rooms for the use of the various committee?, during me last session ; an inconvenient and very expensive method of trans acting the business necessary to "be done. That these are facts you have but to refer to the ex-state officers, who can have no interest in stating anything but the lacls. Granting that it was necessary to do some thing to meet this want, the only question could be as to the amount needed. My own opiniou was that a less amount would have sufficed, but a majority willed otherwise. Now in regard to the additional burthen on account of this appro priation to be laid on the tax-payers of the State. -Let us ?ec whut it'will be. "Were a direct tax laid on the people to pay this amount iu two years, and the valuation of the taxa ble property of the state during that time were to remain the same as last year, it would be for each year on the person having a thousind dollars worth of taxable propeirfv, a little less than fifty cents. Does any oue doubt that during the next two years our taxable property will Increase one-fourth, which of course would decrease the amount of tax in the same proportion ; in other words it would cost each tax-payer iu the state, worth one thousand dollars in taxable property, a little less than 37' cents a year for two years to have a respectable capitol building in the state; truly not such n very grievous burden to bear as they would have ns believe. Rut tho tax will not have to be levied, ns the money is already in the state treasury to pay it, and notwith standing this appropriation the levy of our state taxes lor the next two years will be twenty-live per cent, less than they were during tho past two years. It is a singular fact that the news papers in tho towns with "capitol aspirations," who are yelping "steal," "entcrimr wedge," "vote bought," "old building good c nough," etc., do not raUe the samo howl over the $39,000 voted for an extension of the Insane Hospital building; the .$10,000 tor the Rnlnrm School at Kearney; the appropria tion for building workshop at Deaf and Dumb Institute and for im provements in connection with Pern Normal school building, &c The -amc argument that applies to the capitol building, will apply to each and every one of the above in a greater or less degree I fail to see jun where the "steal" so loudly shouted on the appropria tion bill comes in. It is a legiti mate appropriation for a certain fixed purpose, passed in the regular way by a majority of both houses. It is as well guarded in. its provis ions as any bill can be. Nineteen jf the leading citizens of Nebraska, from uearly as many different coun iicsof the state, have the overeeoing i( the expenditure of this money! Docs any one think a moment that they will misappropriate one penny of the funds? If, as the Butler Cotintv Republi can says, my vote was' in direct jppositiou to the will of my con- tituents.it is a little singular that ihat will was not expressed to me in some way. The bill was intro luced almost the first day of the session, and did not come to final lassago until within a few days of the close; plenty of time for rc nonstrancc to have reached me. I'lio prohibitory liquor bill did not come np for some time after the 'ppropriation bill, yet petitions and remonstrances, for ana against, had .Jcnty of time to come in. Not a Mtiglc scratch of the pen in regard ! the matter reached me from auv .esident of the district to my rec 3 lection personally' advising mo igainst voting for the bill, and nm- y of them were in Lincoln while iie bill was pending; among others he editor of the Republican; while n the other hand many of my con stituents did advise me to vote for his bill even to the amouut of .100,000. But all this aside, I acted accord ng to the best light I had, and I jelievo that time will prove that I icted wisely. If, however, I have Trert in the mater, those who know ne best will, I am satisfied give me he credit of 'erring with the head :ud not with the heart. T do not consider, as many do, hat this appropriation locates the apitol at Lincoln for all time to ome. Wheu the western part of ie stale is more fully developed, I relieve tho state capitol will be rc- :ioyed to a more central location, .itit that time is some distance in he dim future, and if in the menn- "me the making of this appropria- Jon shall have the effect of putting i quietus tn .capitol removal schemes I shall 'be content. The course taken by the Colum bus Journal in regard to my vote, . -is bat confirmed me in my opin- ion, that I voted right on the ques tion. The time has been when this side of the river dare not express an opinion or cast a vote without coir su! ling parties in Colnmbus, but thanks to the O. & R. V. R. R., we arc about out of bondage at last. Now in regard to the Ridings "Why-Xot," correspondent, in last week's Butler County Republican. I will say that, if he "will comu out like a gentleman over his own prop er signature, and assert in plain English what he insinuates in a cowardlv manner, that 1 will be able to convince him of his error i.n a vcrv short spare of timo- W. F. Kisimel Whcrc to Economise. A mother who was particularly successful in keeping her children, at home of evenings, so mnch so that it was with difficulty that they conld be induced to accept an invita tion to spend an evening away from home, was asked if she had any particular secret for so doing. She replied that she could think of none, except that the kept her sitting room and parlor very light. "We put the gns on, full blaze, in both front and back parlors; then we keep the house comfortably warm all over, and this is the only secret, if it is a secret." To this it was ob jected that it would bo very expen sive. She replied : "O, well, fl& will economize in something else, if necessary, but a cheerful light at evening we will have." Ilcr remark was very suggestive, not only in the great difference in the cheerfulness of a well lighted house and the gloom of one when the light is poor and stinted, but of the choice there is iu matters of economy. In these times everybody has to sti.dy economy in some di rections, but in family life it ongnt to be directed lo anything rather than the curtailing of family cotn fortsoi of the quality and quantity of children's food. Better wear the plainest clothes; belter have no ex tra suit ; better put up with the old and patched furniture than to de prive any one of real comfort, especially the children. Warjrith and-light are the attractions used by the saloons and other places of like sort to draw our children from us. Wc must counteract these by pro viding better of the samo kind. We canuot afford to economize too much in these. So in regard to children's food and clothes. There are two articles of food of which children are very fond, and which are mitriiious and wholesome, which arc often econo mised unwisely. These are milk and sugar. Better do without des serts all the time and let the children have their milk to drink and plenty of sugar on their oatmeal or stewed apples. Belter a dime's worth of good pure candy occasionally than the costly and too often indigestible mince pic. In clothing, also, the same discrimination should be ob served. Plenty of good warm un derclothing, good .stockings, and stout, well-fitting shoes will make presentable any plaiuest dress. If economy must be studied in chiL dreu's clothes, let it be iu trimmings and ruffles, and not iu those things which give warmth and comfort. To practice economy successfully requires a great deal of study and experience. It is generally not very encouraging or pleasant to do and yet there are those who have become enthusiastic in it. It has seemed to have almost the fascina tion of a game, to some, to see how little they could live on, and live comfortably. If one has to do it, it is better to do it in such a spirit than complaining!- and fretfully. And, a3 to accomplished something is always a satisfaction, there may be a certain satisfaction in the study anu experimenting tnat lead to a knowledge of how to economise iu the best ways and places, how to live well, and at the same time live cheaply. "Why should an appropriation of ? 75,000, or auy other reasonable sum for the purpose of building a state house at Lincoln, be called a " steal"? Omaha Republican. For the very good and sufficient reason that it is always right to call things by their proper names. In view of the fact that seven-tenths of the people who have that $ 75.000 to pay, were strongly opposed to the measure; in view of the fact that the people of Nebraska arc already overburdeued with taxes; and in view of the fact that sndh papers as the Republican that pre sumes to represent the people north of tho Platte, supported the measure, wcak in all candor what under heavens it could be called but a steal. Schuyler Sun. 'Suppose,' said au Iowa lawyer toj a witness ho was trying to badger, recently, 'suppose I should tell you that I could bring a dozen men of your town to this court-room who would say they would not believe 3'ou on oath, what would you say?' And calmly the witness made reply : 'I would say yon lied.' A gentle smile difJuscd itself all over the court room, and the unruffled wit ness stepped down. The spirit of economy is rife this season. Even the stovepipe is com ing out with its last years soot. Dr. "W. 5. ilayo, who wrote ''Nev er Again," has not written since. lpIiorism from Koihc. " tKANSLATKD BY C. C S. Very much, which we regard as opposition to the Christian faith, is only opposition to the ecclesiastical formulation and treatment of this faith. , Inside of Christendom there can nowhere be a purely (absolutely) "natural" man. All develop them selves from the very beginning un der the influences of the principle of Redemption, as it has, in their sphere of life, in somo measure at least, become an historical force. Even of those is this true within this sphere, who do not profefs Chri-jlianity, and perhaps even make a profession (and that in the best faith) opposed thereto. Inside of Christendom, especially at the present point of its dcvelou--nicnt, the proclamation of the Gos pel is very far indeed from takitig place exclusively through the eccles iastical teaching and preaching jf it, and the use of the Holy Scrip tures. It takes place, iu a very much greater degree, in an indirect way. To help to make Christ free from the Church, that must iu our days bo one of the main endeavors OF believers. "Would the Lord Jesus, if he were now walking among us, easily con scnt lo wear any other garb than that of a lavman? , In this very fact docs Christianity approve itself the absolute Religion, that it no longer aims at being Re ligion as such, Religion by itself, apart. And whoever wants to bring it to that, robs it of its character of Absoluteness. As soo'n as any one has come to regard the system of Protestant Dogma as being also untenable, he cannot lay any great stress upou the differences of the Churches, as re spects Christianity. Christ is "the Lord"' as well in the secular sphere as in tho ecclesiasti cal. It ii foolish, not to see the real Lordship of Christ, lying before our eyes 1.1 me History ot tiic world as sw fact, ill nrdnr In irnnit nf Mm f.,t,,,.

The proper hislo ricul progress lies 'in the steadily advancing labor of the spirit of Christian history upon the ever more perfect upbuilding and exten sion of the Christian ethical Com monwealth, x To be devout in the free air, it is that, which it now stands us in stead to secure. v, Whoever can sincerely pray the Lord's Prayer, he must surely be a Christian. To cultivate Religion merely lis such, is utterly repugnant to my nature. The Saviour has not promised the. perpetual operation ot the Holy Ghost in the community of believers on him as an operation of the spirit in it exclusively as a Church. t The question, which now-a-days tho Church i9 absolutely obliged to propose to herself, is: whether the world's history within tho bounds of Christendom is a Christian his tory or not. v In its own historical environments the Biblical Christianity wears a most majestic mien ; very different indeed, from what it has if wc will forsooth insist upon transplanting, it, reckless of differences, with all its casual particulars, into our pres ent environment, which is so foreign to it. In reference to Christian Morals this is pretty generally ac knowledged: why not also in refer ence lo Christian Doctrine? The Capitol Steal. Let the people of Nebraska re gardless of party affiliations, mark wuu muse men wno voicn lor tne capitol appropriation steal, and con sign them to tho political obscurity they so well merit. Schuyler Sun J What say the Osceola Record, the David City Republican and Press, the Oakdale Pen and Plow, the Madison Chronicle, and the Nor'' folk Journal ? (Colujibus Jour nal. . -4 The following responses nave reached us: Tho Republican has already ex pressed itself on this subject i unequivocal language. It denounc ed the bill from its inception up to tho time of its passage, and in the name of over six hundred electors' in the 15th senatorial district, whose will was set at naught by Senator Kimmcl by his vote on this bill, it4. nas condemned that gentleman's willful disregard of his peoples' wishes. In that vote he sinned against light and knowledge, for no man knew better than did he, that the people of the 15th senatorial dis trict were unalterably opposed loJ tins appropriation. The Republican will be pleased to hear from the other papers mentioned above, especially the Osecola Record, on-J the subject. "Let no guilty man escape." Butler Co. Republican. To oblige our esteemed contem porary wo repeat the views bereto fore expressed in regard to the capitol appropriation, and makcj some additional suggestions. "We believe that the appropriation was a bad thing for Lincoln, for it was not large enough to fix the capitol there permanently, and it gives the central and western por tions of the state time to develope and prepare for the removal coutest, which, sooner or later must como. Soon after the bill was introduced, we expressed these views in a con versation that wc had with Senator Kimmcl, and an the grounds hero staled encouraged him to vote for the bill. In regard to our own position it is proper for us to say here that the Record will not participate in any war upon those who voted for tho bill but is and will be unalterably opposed to any further appropria tions for the new capitol building until the capitol removal question is forever settled. Finally, dear neighbors of the Columbus Jouiixal, wc Buggest that the recent appropriation has disposed of the question for a num ber of years long enough to enable Osceola to take the prize from Co lumbus, and other ambitious towns, if the tJapitoI is ever removed. Osceola Record. Wc stated last fall that Kiimnull was a machine politician, and would use his position to figure for some appointive office. Then, again, as as an available candidate for tho same office two 3ears hence, he is a dead duck. There are parties iu this town are expecting to warm that seat two years hence, it "being their turn" as per agreement. Wo hope the Jot'KN'Ai. will percieve tho usclessncss of impaling upon the point of its logic the political pu ircsencc of the 15th Scnatoriol district. Butler County Press.
