from the met Telegram, is one of several
suggestions that have been made at
different times, aa a solution of the
problem; another ie that the present
freight depot be pulled oat of Platte
atreet (known aa Nebraska avenue), and
that the new Union Pacific depot be
placed nearly a block east, on the Union
Pacific's own ground, and fronting east
on (but not in), Olive street. This last,
we understand, was the original design
of the Union Pacific, and would be agree
able to more than "half a hundred good
people" in the city. The right of way,
we suppose, belongs to the railroad.
The etreeta, we understand, belong to
the city.
There ia considerable interest, here
aa elsewhere in Nebraska, concerning the
aaaeasment upon which is baaed the tax
levy, nis usual rortne various assessors
of a county to meet in the spring, and
among themselves agree upon a bask.
It will, no doubt, interest JounxAS
readers to know that Dodge county
aaeeasors in session the other day "voted
to sassss the actual number of acres of
land, exclusive of roads, for the coming
year. The same schedule of assessment
on personal property and reel estate aa
prevailed last year was put in force
again, except as to horses and cattle
under one year of age. Uniform valua
tions for stock animals were designated
aa follows: Horses, $40 per bead ; cattle,
$16; mules, $40; sheep, $2; hogs; $4.
Bicycles will be rated at $10 apiece.
The meeting adopted a motion to list
telephone properties at $25 per single
line and $40 per double line for each
mile. An additional valuation of $5 per
mile for each extra wire will be made.
All property will be listed at one-fourth
ita valuation. So we learn from the
Fremont Tribune. The next legislature
should, if possible, give ua a revenue law
which throughout would be nearer the
mark than the existing statute ia, aad
provide a way for ita enforcement, to the
ead that all interests should bear their
proaortkmate burden of the public ex
penses. As it ie, the assessors must
technically violate the law in order to
help do actaal justice, or else decline to
