Is it not about time for Omaha to
take active steps toward tbo erection
of a grain elevator?
Dawes and Hoar have already
declined to serve in the Forty-fourth
Congress, and Butler would follow
suit if his native modesty did not
prevent him.
Senator Chandler is the father-in-law
of the new Postmaster
General, and the Michiganders will
now have a chance to improve their
postal connections.
Fbed Douglas has published an

The premium list of the Sarpy
County Agricultural Exhibition for
the year 1874 is now on our table.
The fair will be held at PapilJion Sep

is one of the most fertile counties in
the State, and her lands are for the
most part under cultivation. The
managers of the fair arc offering
tempting inducements to exhibitors
of grain, fruit and live stock. Tho
citizens of Papillion are taking a

TEE TAX WAS.
An injunction has been secured
in the U. S. Circuit Court by the
two national banks in this city to
restrain the City Treasurer from
levying upon the stock of their
shareholders. "Wo have taken
some pains to investigate the causes
of this resistance to taxation. It
appears that the taxation of bank
stock places national banks at a dis
advantage with private banks and
bankers.
wiiiie private stocx oanics are-
liable to local taxation, the law does
not require them to put their capital
into TJ. S. bonds. They are also ex
empt from any national taxes, Pri
vate bankers whoare not incorporat
ed can exempt their entire capital by
temporary Investment during twenty-four
hours in Government bonds.
This sharp practice is notorious, and
assessors this spring had no difficulty
in tracing the shortage on personal
property returns to this cause.
The position of the national banks is
simply that .they demand equal tax
tion with othercapltalists.Thcwhole
bank is now "assessed and taxed as
any other individual, but in this
way that portion of their capital ne
cessarily Invested in U. S. Bonds as
security for circulation becomes ex
empt from local taxation under na
tional laws. Their real estate and
all other personal bank property is
returned and taxed. After
paying this tax and the one
per cent of United States tax,
on circulation, the tax attempted to
be enforced on-shares in the hands
of individual holders, would
subject them to double taxa
tion. Jt is furthermore claimed
by ttt) officers of National
Jtasks, that in the event of the en
forcement of such double taxation,
they woald be compelled to wind
tip and change their institutions
into private banks. This is illus
trated try the following figures:
One hundred .thousand dollars U.
8. bonds U1 cost $115,000 in cur
rency The bank receives on this
deposit $90,000 in .National curren
cy. They are thus compelled to tie
p $96,000 of capital, on which they
gsjgat have drawn interest. Inter
act on $100,000 bonds, $5,000 ;. gov-
; tax ob circulation, one per
ft8; .local tax on stock in
Cwaty, 4 per cent, $4,500,
a Bet iosW $400 and no interest
$96,000 tied up,

originally invested in Government
bonds could have been just aa read
ily loaned out as the National cur
rency, and a banking house con
ducted by responsible men can se
cure just as many deposits as a
National bank. This is the rea
son why all the .national banks
in the State are determined to
resist the present tax law in the
courts. And thus brings U3 to the
fact that our whole tax system and
revenue laws are defective.
Taxation to be just should be
.equitable. Private banks, national
banks, and all other capital should
be on an equal footing. The pres
ent method of personal taxation is
simply a farce. It is an open
school for perjury.
Anybody that will take the time
to examine the returns of personal
property in our tax books, will dis
cover that not one-fiftieth of the
personal property has been re
turned. There are not less than
two millions of individual deposits
in our banks, and it is questionable
whether $10,000 of that amount has
been returned for taxation.
This places individuals and cor
porations, who have a fixed capital,
at a very great disadvantage as
compared with those who manage
to conceal their financial resources
from the assessor.
And we shall all have glory. At
least we are forced to this conclusion
by the tenor of the following article
in the last number of the Beatrice
Express: "Omaha is honored. It
is tho seat of government of the
Grand National Council of the Co
operative Union, or Protectors of
Industry of America. The officers
of tills organization reside in Oma
ha, and from within the walls of
that city they propose to issue
forth to proselyte the world
to a belief in their mission.
The Grand Co-operative, etc., is a
political organization, it being com
posed for the most part of Dr. John
son and Judge Dudley, who would
scorn lb be implicated in any move
ment less comprehensive than the
political regeneration of mankind.
It is an organization which -proposes
to establish a protectorate'.over
the industrial classes, and to attend
to their political salvation for a small
remuneration in the shape of a few
fat offices for the promoters of the
jrreat scheme.
Although Mr. Hale apparently
hesitates about stepping into Gener
al Cresswell's postal shoes, there is
every pi obability that he will over
come his bashfulness within the
next forty-eight hours. The new
Postmaster General is said to be on
the most confidential terms with
Speaker Baine, and his appointment
will materially strengthen Mr.
Blaine's Presidential aspirations.
The appointment of a pronounced
friend and supporter of Mr. Blainp
to a cabinet position furnishes an
other proof that President Grant is
not a third term candidate.
EDUCATIONAL 3GTES.
Eleven counties of Illinois have

The election of representatives to
the Provincial Council of Public
Instruction, in Ontario, Canada,
takes? place on the 27th of July, and
occasions nearly as much interest
as the election of members of the

Dr. Sangster are the only candidates
as yet of the teachers, although a
convention will be held shortly to
make nominations.
Never has so much interest been
shown in the commencements at
the female colleges "of this country

He has applied for a divorce, al

A young Sacramento woman sued

Macoupin county, 111., has its ro

promised to marry her. On the
morning of the appointed day, how

postpone the ceremony, claiming
that he lacked strength to

The suggestion that the law of
marriage in this country, If we are
in linvn nrivnf oil oTiniilrl Ka vtmtlfiM-
al and uniform, is a sensifMe one.
as me marriage laws ana tne deci?
sions of Courts now are in the sev
eral States, there is no such thing as
knowing certainly when the par
ties are married, or how much mar
ried they are, or how long they
can stay married, or what the con
sequences of the relation may be.
Divorce in one State is of one sort,
and in another of a very different
sort, and what constitutes a valid
marriage in New York isn't "worth
shucks" in Kew Jersey. Under
the laws as they now are, a man
micht have two or half a dozen
wives at a time, provided he
keeps them in different States, and
he might, by removing himself into
one where none of them are kept,
very soon relieve himself, of all
marital obligations. In New York
the Courts have recently decided,
in one case, that 'a woman may
compel two men to support her as a
wife, while she lives with a third,
and supports herself and him with
the money she legally collects from
