AN HONE&T GOVERNOR
Governor Walker , of Connecticut
doaorvca credit for hla plucky vote
of the railroad tax reduction Ml
which was passed through the IcgUta
tare by n strong railroad lobby. Thi
message accompanying the vetoed bll
contains aomo sound kernels of scnso
The governor denounces the bll
aa objectionable In the v , rj
object It alms at the reduc
tion of railroad taxes ant
In the method it proposes to accom
plish It. Ho assorts that the poopli
of Connecticut are ahoady paylnp i
average tax of about 14 mills on a del
IKE on the valno of their indlvldna
property , while the railroad corpora
tlons pay only 10 mills on the della
on the valno of their corporate property
orty ,
"It la claimed , " the governor con
tinues , "that railroad corporations an
now taxed on their Indebtedness a
well as their property , and that thli
bill proposes to partially relieve then
from such obvious .oppression. Th !
olalm , so delusive , is entirely nnfonnd
od. The atato imposes taxas on property
orty , but never on Indebtedness , Thi
market valno of the property of a rail
read corporation is indicated by thi
msrkot valno of Its stock and bonds
and the state adopts such vnluo aa i
rule for the assessment of taxes upot
the property such corporation possess
03. The bill , to accomplish its abject ,
contemplates the taxation of the aarm
property at different rates , dependant
pendant upon the manner it
which such property la hold
Such discrimination la pernicious. II
provides that property , if represented
by stock , shall pay one per cent , bnl
If by bonds , only one-half per cent ,
Such a policy , If pursued in the taxa
tion of individual property , woulc
permit the largo portion of the real
estate subject to mortgage to escape
half the taxation It now has to pay ,
It la urged that the object of this bll
thnt changes the mode of railroad
taxation la to charitably aid the pool
corporations. If this were so dis
crimination for ouch n reason In matters -
tors of taxulon Is as obnoxious between
tweon corporate as Individual tax
payers ; but I am advised that th <
effect of thb bill will bo to glvo in the
course of a year nearly aa much of thi
proposed reduction to the rich as thi
poor. The refusal to approve thli
bill will result , I hope , in the ndop
tlon by the next assembly of BOUK
eomprohcuaivo schamo that will filrlj
distribute the burden of luxation or
the property of the state. "
Wo commend the ubovo to the at
tention oi the Nobraika atato board ol
equalization. In Cjimcsilcut th (
taxable valno of the property o ! n
railroad la Indicated by the mukot
valno of its stock and binds. In Ne
braska the otalo Ins baon eyitomatl
cally dwindled by permitting thu rci -
road mnuDgora to innko their own ap
pratncmont of the vuluo of the j ro
portion which they control , If tht
rnlo which G v.-ni'jr Walker stV.ai nc
concisely were adopted in our owi
atato the roveuno derived from rail
road taxation would bo doubled
Th-jro la no reason , aa the BEE ha ,
often nrged why thin method shook
not bo adopted. Property Is wortl

no matter whether * ho property be i
homo and lot or a railroad.
WE cheerfully accord Mr. Wood
man epioo In our columns toj prlo
hla version of the late trouble with thi
North Omaha sower. His arguments
however , fill to break dowa In th
least the common sense position tha
an unfinished piece of public work
cannot bo expected to perform th
functions of a completed system.
Look at the case squarely , asld
from personal prejudice an
personal damages. Hera was
sewer , or more properly
culvert built ever a Crock which dralt :
some 4,100 acres of our city. Th
mere building of the culvert was enl
the beginning of the improvement ii
tended to relieve us of the open creel
The remainder contemplated was tl
filling In of the valley of the croc
above the arch of the sewer , leaving
strong culvert of five feet to take sn
face water from the streets i
North Omaha. But before tl
plan Is finished , and whl
the natural bed of a largo portion
the creek Is still unfilled , wo a
visited by a terrific rainfall , whlc
adding additional force to the sta
nant water already contained ai
banked up In the crook , causes It
overflow Us boundaries and docs oo
slderablo damage to property. Thoi
upon Mr. Woodman and Mr. Cor !
f and several other gentlemen procla
the sewers a failure.
This is not common sense , Wh
the creek is filled , a fiv
foot sewer will bo am ]
largo enough to oairy oil' nil the wa
that roaches it , The rulatako m :
by Mr. Woodman lies In a false o <
mate of the body of surface wa
which , when the Improvement is co
plotod , will fall into the north Omn
culvert.
A largo portion of the amot
which now seeks the valhy of I
creek will be absorbed by the groui
Another portion will find
way to the river by tbo
tern. . As matters now a
the unfilled valley of the North Oi
ha creek is a funnel Into which all
dndiing 4 03 acres' 1s pour
When the crock is levelled much o
that drainage will bo distributed.
So far as the theory of sewerage ca
paclty Is concerned , engineering Is ai
exact science and experience Is a saf
guide. Mr. Phillips , who dostgnoi
our surface sewerage , Is a practica
and experienced man. Cincinnati i
a city whoso location la much the sam
as that cf Omaha. Smaller sewers 1
Cincinnati drain a larger ate . Bu
there are no unfilled creek beds t
converge the body of water nd pour I
with terrific force against the month o
any single sower.
Oar sewer system is all right , am
will bo found sufficient for over emergency
goncy when completed. And it ongh
to bo completed at once. The creel
bed must bo filled up as soon as posal
bio , not only whore It Is crossed b ;
streets , but through private propert
as well. Mr. Woodman will then die
cover that a five-foot sewer la aa gooi
for the purpose aa ono three times th
size.
THE persistency cf woman h
found a now and a happy illnatratlo
through the victory won by Mri
Myra Clark Gaincs In her suit agalns
the city of Now Orleans. For man
years Mrs , Galnes fought her wa
Inch by Inch In the courts , to proonr
possession and title to certain propert
which the city wrongfully oold at anc
tlon on March 10 , 1837. The silo ws
some years ago annulled by th
United States courts. Mrs. Gilne
has lately been suing to re
cover an amonut equal t
the rent yielded in all thos
years by the property holdln ,
the city responsible not only for al
the revenue which has boon actuall
derived from the property since 1837
but alto for all that It might hav
yielded nnder reasonable and prope
oaro. For example , nevcral of th
lots and eqnarcs remained nnimprovo
because the validity of the title wa
in doubt , owing to her original snl
against the city to gain possession c
them. She held that the city wi
bound to pay her the revenue whic !
would have been collected from thes
squires If they had been improved nether
other adjoining equares not blighted b ;
litigation were improved. After man ;
years the master in chancery reports' '
that the city owed her $1,604,062 fo
theao revenues and interest npoi
them. Judge Billings chose to in
croaao this allowance to $1.025,667
If the supreme court of the Unite
Satca should sustain this decision
the city will bo forced to pay noarl
$2,000.000 to this aged but ouorgotl
woman whose career and success aa
litigant , through o period of fort
years , must bo regarded a wlthon
parallel.
THE suicide of Amaaa Stone , th
Cleveland millionaire , caused qulto

000,000 and had only 84 OOD,000 moi

road men and Iron manufacturers c
the west , and had nttulncd the ago c
65 , when ho should have bo < m restin
qulotly after a busy life , Instead <
speculating in stocks. But his res
los ! energy was as boundless as hi
grasping greed , and his recent reverse
deranged his mind , The trouble wit
the American business man li that b
Cover knows when ho has enough.
FROM the fact that General Noyc
was the president of Cincinnati's lat
dramatic enterprise , the Chicago Tim- -
begins to suspect that there Is same
thing In a name after all.

Mr. Woodman on the Bower Queetlc
To the Editor o ! the lice.
In your lasno cf the llth In an ed
torlal headed "attacking the sowen
you say : "Tho damage done to tl
Woodman oil mill was largely , If n
entirely , owing tu carelessness on tl
part of Its builders. They had boi
repeatedly warned that there was da
ger in case of an extraordinary ral
fall In spite of the warning thi
neglected to keep their overflow pi
open and pormlttod stagnant water
back itself up to the depth of twol
foot adjoining their property. Wh
the heavy rain came of conrso the wi
of earth gave way. "
I do not know where yon obtain
the above information but there is c
a word of truth In It. No su
state of affairs has ever exist
thoro. The overflow pi
wes unobstructed and open a
It has boon In this condition ever sir
It was put In. No stagnant water i
cumulated above its month and th (
was no bink of earth thuro to R :

gave away WAS the filling on a lot 1
longing to Mr. Oloaou , This lol
situated in the old crock bed , ni
Twentieth street , about throe bloi
from the oil mill. The earth that v
put Into this lot hold the water till
was ton foot above the mouth of I
sewer , It then wont out and the m
, of water and mud rushed down till
struck the filling on top ot the soi
where the sewer crosses the creek
Nineteenth street. When this lat
wall of earth gave away the water a
mud rushed down In a volume
least fifteen feet deep , carry
the. . walla of the mill before
IIf th'ero ' bid1 * * been "ihei
embankment at the mill with snfll
clont strength to turn its conrso 1
would have resulted In tbo destruc
tlon of Mr , Toozer'a and Mr , Jack
son's houses , and very likely the lost
of a dozen or moro of lives.
When the water was receding 1
ntood on the bank with Mr. Il.N. With
neil till wo could see the month of thi
sewer , and it was free from obstruo
tlon , It Is simply a case of mlscalcu
tlon In regard to the slzo of a sowoi
required to carry off the water fron
a heavy rainfall , and yon cannot fini
a disinterested man in the city whi
will advocate any other theory. Thi ;
same sewer was running full yostordaj

backed up two feet above Its month

When the foundation walls of th
mill wore put In last fall the city engineer
gineor suggested the putting in of
sewer plpo through the walls of th
mill and under the basemant floor c
the mill , to connect with the sowo
and terminate in the old creek be
above the mill.
This pipe was pnt in exactly as sng
gested and its month was in the hot

Mr. Jackson and Mr. Toozer botl
have houses and llvo on the bank c
the creek at this point , and they wer
both interested in seeing that thi
plpo was kept open , and they wl
bear mo out In the assertion that i
w s open at all times , and that I
drained the creek bed as low as it wa
possible to drain It and have it ru
Into the sower. There Is not a ma :
of ordinary Intelligence who has vie
itod the locality and examined th
water marks in the vicinity but wha
la now satisfied that the sewer wll
not carry off over one-third of th
water of a heavy storm , and any offer
to defend the calculations upon wblct
it waa constructed will not stand for ;
moment. A theory as applied to sewerage
orago engineering in the moro love
eastern cities will not apply here , am
if the city council allow Ifs engineer
to bo guided by these calculations 1
will learn by dearly bought experl
enced that a good deal of obaervatloi
and less theory is what is wanted li
