NOTHING IiEFT MOT HIS VOTE
The Krjntblican say that all tko
without argument
anti-monopoly papern are
gument or fact on the railroad ques
tion and simply deal in doraagoguery ,
abuse and hog wash in general. Now
the anti-monopolist does not refuse
to render unto Caotar , the things that
are Oaeear's , nor unto the railroads
the full extent of their great services.
But ho simply says that the railroad
companies should bo restrained by
the law from getting above the law.
Statistics show nbiut 8ii,000 miles of
railway with a capital nnd debt of
about five thousand million. The
gross earnings per milo a Httlo over
$7,000 , and the not earnings a Httlo
over $3,000 or an aggregate of about
§ 015,000,000 per annum , with a cleur
profit of over § 255,000,000. Now
.lieao figures ate startling to the poor
aboring man. The ontiru taxable
property , real and persona ) , of the
Jnitod States in 1880 , was something
over fifteen billion , and. therefore the
railroads in about fifty years would
make in clear profit an amount greater
han the whole taxable property of the
whole Union , Picture it , think of it ,
n a man's lifetime tvould take from
ho pockota of the people , and princip
ally the farmer , according to thoconsus
of 1880 , ever thirty billions of money.
) n estimating the population of the
ountry at 50,000,000 , they tax every
man , woman and child in all this land
aver ? ,12 per year , $5 of which is clean
profit to go into the pockets of about
20,000 nabobs , and chiefly into the
lands of a couple of hundred railroad
tings. Now take Nebraska with her
00,000 people nnd 3,000 miles of
ailwny. Taking the general average
f $3,000 per mile profit , that would
oot up $9,000,000 annually or about 18
lines ns much an it would take to run
10 atato government. Therefore thu
ooplo pay 42 times as much money to
upport the railroads ns they do to
upport their state and 18 times ns
luch they pay them aa clear profit ,
[ ovv is that for high ? Doca it not
.and to reason that they should hnvo
omothing to aay when these roads
rant to take advantage of their no-
ossitios to force them to pay moro.
But besides all this , the government
nkes away the homos that God has
ivon to the people and gives it to the
allriads. Then the people have to
> uy their own property from the roads
and from their blood , awnat and toil
drnish the money , not only rnnugh
o build the roud , but to leave mil-
tons moro as a clean bonus. Thu
Texas Pacifio.company gels ever 14
000,000 acres to build GG8 miles of
road , costing at $20,000 per milo ,
ever $13,000,000. This land
a worth to the railroad at least ; five
dollars per acre. Than the company
gets $70,000,000 to build a road which
can't cost moro than $14,000,000 and
to support which ttho people will pay
per annum $4,070,000. Is it any won
der that Ames had.his Credit Mobilior
bookand that Nowall is swearing right
now , that Gould , Huntington & Co. ,
have just bought congress up again
and proves it by figures , daairs , A3 ,

log'ulaturcs ; ns they did in Now Jersey
last spring , judges , lawyers , svory-
body , run iiowepapers und just own
everything but that Httlo piucu of pi

Now this ia what alarms the laboring
man. Ho worlio fur his $2 00 pjr
day in the dirt mid hot sun and can
barely feed his hungry children. The
railroad man , no bolter than ho ,
drives his splendid carriage nnd ia BI
busy counting his millions that ha
drives right over him or his
litlo ones playing in the
street. Is it not natural
for the poor laborer to say , "My God ,
"sir , every bead of sweat on my brow
"is worth a ton-dollar pieoo to
"you , of which you take nine
"and give mo ono , Can't you give
"mo enough out of my own blood to
"mako my sick wife comfortable. Hut
this ia all hogwnah , abuse , buncombe
says The lltjnibliciin.
We say it is human nature , justice.
In Europe the railroad can laugh with
the government bayonet behind it.
Hero the people vote nnd will die
to BOO that votoountod , and ho lnu ha
beat who laughs last.
The question in the near future ia ,
can the railroad millions buy the poor
inan'u vote ? if not , then the great
strike that must como will win , not
by violence , but at the ballot box , If
shylock must have the pound of flash
from the heart of the people , lot him
take it , but beware , for ho must take
the blood with it.

MONOPOLY IN HITCHCOCK CO.
The , People Unllo In an Effort to Got
Justice
Correspondence of The I5eo.
The people of Hitchcock county ,
Nebraska , though blessed In many re
spects , are not entirely free from vex
ation. They have a railroad running
through their county aud that railroad
appears to bo constitutionally opposed
to paying taxes. Knowing that THK
BRK haa comn out strongly in favor of
justice and f.unions to all parties , both
railroads and individuals , wo send you
the following , and lot the people of
other counties judge for thomsclvoa a *
to who [ as , right. The Burlington
Missouri railroad runs through the
central portion of Hitchcock and Dun
dy counties , having a little over 72
miles of road in the two counties.
However , the railroad company repor
ted to the atato board of equalization
that there wore only 3 and 0-10 miles
of road in Hitchcock county. Instead
of allowing it to go in that manner ,
the county commisrionera entered a
protest and the state board forced the
railroad company to niako an addi
tional report. lu this second report
the company claimed to GO and 3 10
miles of unfiuishcd road in the two
couutico , besides the 3 and G 10 first
reported , which was claimed to bo
finished road. The company reported
the total value of the GO and 3-10
miles at$76,000. ;
The atato board Ignored the valua
tion given by the compiny and fixed
the valuation nt $3,000 per milo. In
the xdditional report the auditor of
the B. & M. BtiU.-d that on the lit
day of April , 1882 , the rails had just
been laid , the surfacing of the track
had not boon finished ; that the sta
tion houses , pngino houses , water
tanks and section houses were all in
complete ; th.tt the railroad was not
doing a general business , receiving no
revenue whatever , and was not in a
condition to do any business. This
additional statement was sent to the
county commissioners by' the state
board , The commissioners , through
their attorney , J. Byron Jennings ,
objected also to this additional report
as being incorrnct , and produced the
nfliilavita of eighteen of the best citi
zens and tax-payers of the two coun
ties , including all the county officers
of Hitchcock county to the effect that
on the 1st day of April , 1882 , the
said B. & M. railroad , from thu east
line of Hitchcock county to the west
line of JDundy county , was completed
und in perfect running order ; that the
rails had been laid for months
prior to oaid time ; that
the surfacing had been com
pleted weeks before ; that the engine
houses , station homes , water tanks
and section houses , were all completed
before the lot of April , 1882 ; that
previous to the lat of April , 1882 , the
railroad was charging fare for passen
gers , freight for transportation and
doing a general business as common
carriers in the full acceptation and
moaning of the term railroad ; that no
work has been done 0:1 : that portion
of the road within Hitchcock county
linoo the 1st day of April , 1882 , ex
cept what has boon performed by the
oidinory section hands. The affiants
further uwuro that tlie railroad was to
all intents and purposes i\3 com
pletely finished on the 1st day of
April , 1882 , as at the present day.
ThcBi ! sworn sta cmcnts of the citi
zens and tax-payers of the two coun
ties were presented to the state board
on July 17 , and the evidence was sc
conclusive that the railroad comp nj
asked through their attorney a few
days , in which to prepare their side oi
the case , which was granted.
When the r.ulroad make their state
ment the atato board will give theii
decision nnd report to the count }
authorities.
Dundy county , lying west of Hitch
cock county , haa no county organiz.v
tion of its its own , but is under the
control of the officers of Hitchojck
county , huncu the reason for the
county commiabionora including Dun
dy in their reports.
Having iven the offidavits sworn
toby 18 unimpeachale citizens rgurdinfj
the condition of the railroad in Hitch
cock and Dundy counties , wo will no\v
give a verb it tun eupy of u letter giv

D , * r Sir In reply to yiur favur ol
17th iust. , the Rcpublic-m Valloj
road west of Culiiurtson on to the
Colorado state line , was on April 1 ,
1882 , in pn CCBS of coimtruction niul
w.is notcoinplutod , and at thu ( nut ) ]
rondi-rod to you the ntnt'sainont return ,
that of April 1 , no doumud ( hut that
fact justified our excluding that part
< , f thu road from our return.
This pleou of roud , \ounre aware ,
IIAH been built au pirt of ttho line to
D.'tivor , and in itself us a local line
will not pay. On April 1 the rails
had just buJii laid , but the aurfaceinc
had not boon completed , nor had the
stations , buildings , water tanks , en
gine [ housi-H , titc. It was therefore by
no means in condition to do a regular
bneinees and was receiving no revenue.
At the present time , although thu line
to Danvcr , of which thia is u par' ,
is laid with rails , it is not n
railroad in the full acceptation aud
meaning of the term , aa its necessary
buildings are not completed , it has not
received its rolling stock , and it there
fore as yet an unproductive piece ol
property of Httlo value , if any , as i\ \
railroad , under which form it is to be
taxed , except in the future , Those
are thu factc , and in view of them it
would bo out of the bounds of equity
to tax this pieca of uncompleted and
unproductive piece of road , in Hitch
cock and Dundy counties , from which ,
of the-year no revenue
during a largo part - ,
enue whatever will bo received , and
during the bilanca of the year no profit -
fit , at anything hko the rest of the Re
publican Yalloy road , and questiona
ble whether it should bo taxed at all
this year.
Hut wo do not desire to bo in con
flict with thu citizens of those coun
ties , and I will therefore , and do hero-
by , retain the railroad property there ,
tlio property of the Republican Valloj
railroad company , to-wit : twenty-
Boron and eight-tenths (27 ( 8-10) ) tnilca
of uncompleted road in Ilitohcock
county , nnd forty-ono and five-tenths
(41 ( 5-10) ) railea of uncompleted road In
Dundy county , and the uncompleted
buildings and side tracks , and other
appurtenances thereof , on the first day
of April , 1882 , nt soventy-fivo thou
sand dollars ( $70,000) ) .
In regard to the material on hand
at Uenkolman , which is referred to in
your letter , that was material in
transit for the contractor building the
railroad in Colorado , and every pound
of it was shortly afterwards moved on
into Colorado , uud put into the road
there.
It was lelt at Bonko'man ' for the
titno being , bocauan we happened to
hi vo better facilities for storing it
there than the contractor hnd in Col
orado.
It is no more taxable in this state
than other freight in transit , which ,
by some nccidont , might bo lying on
our line on the 1st of April , I trust
thu board of equalisation v/ill accep
this return and niako the apportion
ment accordingly. I om truly ,
0. D. DOHMAN ,
Auditor 11. & M. Itailroad in Ne
braska.
The residents of the counties in
( jurstion have always been and are
noir warm friends of the railroad com
pany , but they do not propose to sub
mit to tn injustice. All they desire
is that the railroads fill nil pay a fair
tax on their property und no more.
One of two things is evident either
Air , Djnnan hna made a false state
ment regarding the railroad property
or else the eighteen affiants have per
jured themselves. If Mr. Djnnan
thinks ho can frighten out the tax
payers of the two counties by simply
making a statement contrary to their
affidavits , ho is badly mistaken , for
they nro not the kind of men that are
easily scared. The decision of the
state board will be awaited with great
interest. A. 0. D.
Taxation.
Kciuroy Press ,
There is nothing so much needed in
Nebraska , as a radical reform in our
inodo of levying and collecting taxes.
Not only do railway corporations
evade the payment of their just pro
portion of taxes , but , as a rule it is
done by all wealthy individuals. All
property should be hated at its actual
cash value , and the assessor she uld bo
particular to swear every party assess
ed. Stringent laws should bo enacted ,
and ponali ius provided for , to inflict
on Hvery person or corporation failing
to make true returns. Under the
present mode of listing , not ono fourth
of the property is givun in , and the
laborer , mechanic and farmer , have
nearly all the burdens to bear. Our
railway companies are assessed at from
33,500 to $11,000 per mile and are
capitalized at from gSO.OOOto $100,000
par milo. Many business men and capi
talists return trom § 300 to $3,000 who
have from 85,000 to 840,000 which
should bo returned. In the west half
of this county , the U. P. road pay no
In if 3 on their land" , while all their
lands outside the ten milo limit , are
txompt bv the grace of our county
commissioners. But when a settler
buys a quarter section of those lands ,
and pays $100 on the same , ho is im
mediately taxed on $100 , his interest
in said lands. The supreme court of
the United States has decided that
the mortgaging of these lands was a
transfer , and prevented their over
being forfeited to the government. If
this be true , they are certainly tax
able , and if the voters of Buffalo coun
ty would over consult their own inter
ests , for a moment , they would elect
men to oflisp who would place them
on the tax list. The lands should bo
taxed at the rate the homesteader's
lands ara taxed. The man who lives
on his lands and improves them , Is
enhancing the value of the landa of
the railrond company and the specula
tor , and they should bo compelled to
pay the eamo ratio of taxation. Such
a method of assessment would force
the lands on the market and
bo the means of placing a
farmer on every quarter section of
good lands , and adding to thu im
provements , wealth and prosperity of
the state. The injustice of allowing
railroad lands to escape taxation , and
speculators' lands to only be taxed at
a nominal value , is one of tbp great
injustices of our political existence ,
and ono that must be speedily reme
died. Thu poor man has no escape
from taxes ; but the rich and powerful
fix the amounts with absolute cor-
tainity , which they propose to pay ,
and * hosu amounts are accepted , and
no questions n&ked. The Press pro
poses to labor with all the ability it
may poaseea , to right these evils , and
fxptids its readers to bo very careful
toeulect good men tor the legislature
this fall , and a good man for county
commiA irmcr , rino who cannot bo
Hweryo.d from his duty to the people
or hiuuelf , by the U. P. company.
There uro tw > commissioners now
Burving who arena elected upon the
im'Hot ' tcixing U. P lands , but they
huvo not boon hoard from in that di
rection , since taking the oath of office.
Hut there are man who will keep their
pU'dgi's to the people and wo must
lind them and bring them to the front.
In no other way can wo expect _ or
hope to secure equal or exast justice
in the matter of taxation.
