THE DAILY BEE , THE basis of low taxation Is eqult- able assessment of the rich CB well EB the poor , _ EVEET indication points to the com ing season RS the most prosperous In the history ol Omaha. SENATOR MOORE , of York , never needs to explain hia position on the question of the hour. He is generally right there every time. ACCORDING tcan exchange , England Is proceeding on the plan that Ireland has no rights which Englishmen are bound to respect MR. CASE , of Olay connty , IB mak ing a record for himself In Lincoln which his constituents will not be alow to appreciate. NEBRASKA has no Intention of fr fjhtenlng away capital but demands that capital shall not plunder and throttle production. THE farmers In the Bepnbllcan ral- lay who planted f&U wheat are looking forward to a season which will more ihanatonofor the troubles of last year. THE long-haired men and the shorthaired - haired women are the only advocates of woman suffrage in our state. They are not liable to be accommodated. MOKE elegant and substantial build ings will be erected In Omaha this year than In any previous year within the momorv of the oldest sottlera. IT is denied that Ell Perkins Is the great American humorist. H res with George Alfred Townsend the honor of being the great American rumorisU TIIE funding bill has passed , and nearly $000,000,000 of outstanding bands will be called in and replaced by 3 per cents. Issued under the new law. AN" extra session of congress now scorns a certainty , and Uncle Sam will ai uuial haye to piy dearly for the laziness and wlndlnost. of his repres entatives. SENATORVAN WTCK has been mak ing another charge along the railroad Una and those soft-soaping organs are trying to think whore they got the impression that the senator-elect was not unfavorable to monopoly aggress ion. WITH a new bridge , the enlarged U. P. .shops , a new grain elevator , a re built Grand Central , and thirty now blocks ! Omaha will have no reason to complain of her growth la the year 1881. THAT venerable philanthropist , Peter Cooper , celebrated his nineteenth - . , teenth year recently In New York , and opened his bar'l to the extent of $100,000. Mr. Cooper has given away over $3,000,000 within the last twenty years. GLADSTONE hu remitted 25 per cent , of the yearly rental of his ten ants. If Mr. Gladstone lived in Ire land for a few months , he would drop his support of the coercion bill and join Mr. ParneH'a sldo. His heart is all right , but his head all wrong. GOULD has obtained control of the New Jersey Central railroad and pro poses to make U a portion of his through line from the Pacific to the Atlantic coast. Jay can't digest his dinner unless he has corallod a uow railroad. THAT proposition that the govern ment should devote § 175,000 for an expedition to search fur the Jeanne tte is a very shrewd scheme of James Gordon Bennett for securing a govern ment grant of 175,000 to be expend ed in advertising the newspaper of which he is proprietor. Two members of the Arkansas leg islature arc unable to tell whore they wore born. A number of members of the Nebraska legislature , at thecloie of the session , will wish they never had been born aiiy where , if they con tinue playing into the hands of the monopoly tools and cappers at Lie- coin. THIS is a very late day for the Herald to take np the cudgels In behalf of one of its editorial staff who has been so malignantly slandered for following out the instructions of his superiors. The friends f of that gen. tlomau.havobaen anxiously awaiting the expression of that editorial opin ion which is bettor late than never. TUURSTON and Marquette , the paid attorneys ol the monopolies , are doing their bo t to kill off the various bills Introduced in the legislature to pre vent discrimination and extortion against Nebraska producers. Let the people of this state mark well their tools in the ifcfeUlalute who ore as sisting them in tbeir efforts. FRANK WALTER MYERS says his knowledge of the necessity of railroad monopolies was learned In China , where they have . none. On the same principle our people have learned the neoessHy of cheap railroad rates , and fair treatment , Li Nebraska , where they have never experienced them. THE Atlantic -Monthly for March ably sustains the reputatloa of this excellent periodical. One of the most inlereating articles is that by H. D. Lloyd , entitled "Story of a Great Monopoly , " in whichtho outrageous extortions of the Standard Oil company - pany is held up for public inspection. William M. | RosettI continues Ms ad mirable papers upon "Tho Wires of Poets , " and Oliver"Wendell Holmes contributes en entertaining article en titled "From Beaten to Florence. " The remaining contributions nro fully np to the high standard so consist ently followed by the Atlantic Hough ton , Mifllin & Company , pub of lishers , Boston , Mass. STRANGLING LEGISLATION The railroad attorneys and their tools in the legislature are putting forward every effort to throttle legia tion npon the railroad question and to postpone for tire years longer the in evitable conflict between the produc ers of this state and the corporate mo nopolies. Every delay of parliamen tary tactics is being taten advantage of to throw dust in the eyea of the members of the legislature and to avoid a square and fair vote upon the railroad monopolies by the stato. The railroad attorney of the B. & M. has recently been boastin2 of his narvicca two years ago in preventing action by the legislature upon tha railroad ques tion and at the present time the at- torne7 of both roads are using pre cisely tuo same tactics which were successful at the last oealon. OP one thing the legislature m y bt perfectly certain. The people of Ne braska will accept of no oicntos for their failure to follow out the wishes of their constituents. Every man who votes to postpone action npon the great and pressing issue of the hour , every man who all ; - himself openly or se cretly with the corporation cappers and monopoly attorneys in their efforts to prevent legislative action upon this qusstlon , every member whq shirks placing himself openly and above board , on the paople's side , Is & doom ed man. No plea of more urgent baa- Iness will go down. The most urgent and necessitous business for the inter ests of the state is that now before the legislature. It cannot be dodged or evaded. It is backed by the de mands of thousands of Nebraska's producers and fortified by the prayers andpotitiona of the wealth-makers of the stato. There can ba no deception in this matter. Evcro member of the legislature is under a solemn oath to follow out the mandates of the con stitution , and should the last day cf the soislon close and their pledge re main unfilled they will go homo to their constituents branded with tbo mark of Gain and forever perjured and disgraced. Tbe people of Nebraska are watching with eager interest these closing dabs of the session. The vote of everymom- ber Is being recorded. The alliances of every senator and representative Is carefully scrutinized. Every day adds another pagb to the record which for good or for evil the chosen repre sentatives of the people must face when they r jturn homo to their con stituents. Some are already dlgraced so thoroughly that their political re- surreatlon will be Impossible. Others aave yet the opportunity to retrieve themselves and dispel the unfavorable opinions hich their conduct has created. y important decision has just been made by tbo Illinois supreme court la favor of the right to teach German In the common schools. The complaint was filed by a number of tax payers of St. Clalr county against the board of education to enjoin what they coneidered a misappropriation of the school funds. They claimed that the board of education hvd no right to prescribe any studies in fhe common school excepting those established ai the qualification of teacherviz : or thography , reading In English , penmanship - manship , arithmetic , English gram- mar , modern geography , the elements of the natural sciences , history of the United States , physiology , and the lawa of heslthand such other branches of in English education , including vocal music and drawing , as the board of education , or the rotera of the dis trict , at the annual election of direct ors , may prescribe. They further claimed that the teaching of the German language end literature falling to come under any of the above classes was a misappropriation and diversion of the school funds of the county. The court held thit there could bo no valid objection to the teaching of the German language so Ions aa Eng lish waa used as the medium for such instruction under the assent of the voters or directors of the school dis trict. The courts , according to the Illinois supreme bench , have no right to Interfere with the large discre tionary power granted to school direc tors under the constitution unless such { discretion works great wrong or Injury. Illinois is not the only state whera the question of the expediency of teach- ingtheGermanlangnageinJonrcommon schools has baen agitated. To-day German Is the language in which the most profound philosophy , tha mnst brilliant scientific investigation andi the richest treasures oj historical re saarch are embalmed. No one who is denied access to the German literature through igaoranca of its language , - can lay claim to a thorough educa tion. A large proportion o ! our foreign population speak the lan guage of the Fatherland. To a busi ness man a knowledge of the German language is dollars aad cants in his pocket , and will repay an hundred times the time and money expended in its acquisition. Under such cir cumstances the dosision of the Illinois court , which leaves it optional with our people whether our children shall or shall not receive the advantages of knowledge of the German luugu and literature , is most gratifying. IT is stated by the Pioneer frets that the murderer of General Ouster has been found In a Sioux chief , K 'Jl- In-the-Face. Upon seeing Caster's picture he s id , "I killed him. I made many holes in him. He once fcok my liberty , I took his life. I am ghd I did. I visited his body after the battle. I cut him open and ate part of hia liver. I am glad I killed him Ho was ba.d to tay pee ple. He killed many warriors. ' ' It Is a superstition among the Siour that by eating the liver of a valorous victim , tha warrior so eating obtains' all his canning and prowess. . This is thejfirst authenticated-account of Cos tor's death ever given. DDRISO the month of January 13 , . i 137 immigrants lauded In New York , which number - 4333 came from / Germany. POETRY OP THE TIME At That Matinee. She might have been a banker's daughter , "With millions of the yellow ore ; She might have been , as I've since thought her , A shop girl in a dollar store ; An heiress or a smile provider , Which of the two I cannot say , I only know I sat beside ber _ That matinee. Brown-haired , white-throated.lUac-lddded ; Slim want , close clasped in violet silk ; Bius eye ? , lon -lashed and lily-lidded , And teeth like ivory dipped in milkj Two dew-wet which thrilled lips , red-ripe , - , me Responsive to their varying play. My gracious me ! how dead she killed me , That matinee. And when between tbe acts , quick meet ing. The orchestra breathed music's boon Her little foot in rhythmic beating , Kept dainty time to every tune. Oh , my offence is rank , and iankle Within my bosom't will for aye ; I tried but failed to see her ankle That matinee. The curtain fell , and unattended I watched her as she tripped along- , Until at lost her figure blended , Far distant , with the hnrryiue throng. All's done ; but one regret still lingers ; We always know , too late , the way ; I think I should have pressed her lingers That matinee. [ San Francisco News-Letter. HONEY FOB THE LADIES.

An experienced matron says : "A man will eat soggy blicuits twice a week without a complaint when his girl invites him out to tea , but when the girl becomes his wife , if there is the faintast suspicion of salaratus in them the neighbors will think the dii- trict school is out for recosi by the racket ho makes.
