When Boss Tweed was faceil with the
proofs of his jobbery ho insolently asked
his accusers , "What are you going to do
about it ? " Tweed's example is now being
followed by the apologists for tax ahirk-
ing land grant robbers. Mr. Popploton's
cautions defeimo of Judge Dundy and
the United States courts in their peculiar
.decisions on the land grant cases has
made bold the small organists of the con
federated monopolies to a brazen defiance
that would have done credit to Bill
Tweed himself. Mr. Poppleton simply
sought to show that Judge Dundy's tax
injunction was issued in conformity with
decisions of the supreme court and the
general attorney of the Union Pacific waa
at great pains to show that the Platt case
was not a put up job and the final decis
ion was reached after a full and fair pre
sentment of all the facts. To be sure ,
Mr. Popploton's effort in this direction
was not very successful since ho was
forced to admit that Platt acted upon hif
personal advice "as a friend of the road"
in .squatting on the Union Pacific lands.
But now comes the Lincoln JouriKtl
and assorts that it makes no difference
whether Platt was a bona fide settler or
not or whether he waa acting a part aa an
agent of the Union Pacific road and mak
ing use of the machinery of Judge Dun-
dy's court to secure decisions that would
deprive settlers of millions of acres of
public lands that were legally subject to
preemption.
Now we apprehend that it makes nome
difference whether a case iff presented by
honest litigants fighting for what they
believe to bo their rights , or whether by
collusion between the contestants a one
sided presentment isskillfullygotton up to
conceal the real facts to befog the courts
and make use of them to doteat justice.
This was what waa done in the Platt
case , which waa made the baaia for the rule
that a mortgage given by the land grant
roada debarred the government from
from taking possession of the
unsold lands and disposing of thorn
for homestead entry. Although this im-
porant case , involving an empire in pub
lie lands , waa brought before the supreme
court by collusive action , three out o
eight of the supreme judges refused to
Concur in the decision of the majority- -
Had the case been presented in all ita
phases a majority of the court would
doubtless have sustained Secretary
Schurz , aa Mr. Popploton admits that ho
did himself before the case was brought.
What was the plain intent of con
gress in making this royal land
grant ? First and foremost to aid
in the construction of a Pacific
railnmd ; and second to people , the conn-
try through which the railroad passed
with a thrifty agricultural population.
Before the Pacific roads were built the
public lands were on sale for $ ! . ' _ ' 5 an
acre. When the alternate Hections were
donated to the railroads , the remainder
was raised to $ 'J.r > 0. The grantor very
naturally expected that the railroads
would make energetic ellorta to/Imposts of
their lands to Bottlers in order to build
o up a local tralHc and thus insure
eventually the repayment of tlu > vast sum
advanced by the government to build tin
road. In order to clinch the compact ho
tweon the railroad and the government
and mainly to prevent speculation thai
would withhold the lands from actua
settlers , Congress expressly reserved tc
the government the right to take contro
of the lands not sold or disposed of with
n in three years after the railroad wai
completed , and made them .sub
joct to pre-emption and homestead
stead entry. The proceeds o
10 such sales were to go to the railroads
which shows that aid given , for huildinj
the road was ensured beyond forfeiture
Up to 1870 all the land grant roada hoh
nts' that this part of the charter would b
s' ! enforced the
strictly by government am
L'O sustained by the courts. The Burlingtoi
at it Missouri disposed of their lands by sal
lie to an inside ring to avoid reversion. Thi
or compelled thorn to take out their patent
he and theirlandshavoboon paying taxes eve
since. The Union and Central Pacifi
erin roads devised a scheme to dispose of thoi
unsold land grants , back to the goven
in niont , and bills were introduced in cor
gross to consummate this villainous dif
posal of "mortgaged " first
int property , r
of $5 and Inter at $2.50 an acre. Congress
p. however , refused to pass such n bill , nn
tid thus virtually declared in favor of enforcing
\rs forcing the original clause of the Pncifi
railroad charter , that subjected thee
as-
lands to homestead entry. Throng
tra Judge Dundy's court the acl :
iU of congress havu boon nullified and tli
for vast domain that would to-day hnve bee
peopled by industrious tax paying farn
ore still remains a wilderness. And whe
VI- the aamo court is asked to stop in an
nd , assist thd land grant robbers in evadin
'ho their taxes the plea is brought forwai
Ivo that it is only carrying out well estal
vi- Halted principles. The Lincoln Jonrnn
fis- as an apologist for the court and
for mouthpiece for tliu road , asks what t !
'ho people are going to dp about it ? To th i
od , wo answer , reopen the tight , denouni
be land grant tax shirking a gra\
lilk wrong , petition congress , remonstral
lilkof
of against jug handle decisions , make no
eases in every county whore railroad lam
aru uutaxcd , employ competent lawyei
and appeal from tie ) decision of the lowi
a court through a test case in which all tl
of facts shall bo brought out. Mr. Poppli
llr- ton wnrns the outraged people agaim
lining J
squandering more money on litigatid
ing and paternally admonishes the people t
red grin and bear it. Mr. Popploton's advit
lu" can scarcely bo considered disintorcstoi
no , and it would hardly bo given if hia con '
teldo puny did not fear a reopening of the eaa
do on a fair presental of the actual facts.

City Physician Leisenring , who had
some experience last year with a small-
] H > X epidemic , calls the attention of the
council to the dirty and pestilential con
dition of the alloys in this city and urges
that immediate steps bu taken to havu
them cleaned. Thia is a timely warning.
Summer seems to havu come at last , and
hot weather and garbage heaps combine
to breed disease. If typhoid fever be
comes epidemic in Omaha this summer ,
it will bo easy to fix the blame whore it
belongs.
Many of our alleys and especially those
in the business portion of the city aru in a
fearful condition. Putrefying vegetable
and animal matter , ruts filled with slimy
ooze and piles of filthy store sweepings
and kitchen refuse are steaming in the
HUH and Konding out death dealing odors.
The alloy between Farnam ifc Douglas ,
from Tenth toSixteeithstreets , is particu
larly obnoxious , but there are a dozen
others to which the attention of the po
lice ought to bo at once directed.
Our city ordinances forbid the abuse of
the alleys as places to dump garbage and
refuse , and provide severe penalties for
their infraction. Marshal Guthrie should
take the matter at once in hand and en
force the law upon all violators , no mat
ter who they may be , or whore they may
happen to live. Thia is a case that in
volves the public health , and there should
bo no delay in investigating and remedy
ing it. Physicians toll us that there are
already too many cases of malarial dis
ease in the city. Unless Omaha is pre
pared for an epidemic of low fevers , she
must promptly remove the possiblocauses
of infection.
Tun republican state central committee
will meet at the Paxton house in Omaha
on the 'J8th inst. The object of the
meeting is doubtless to issue calls for the
nominating conventions that are to elect
eleven district judges , ono supreme judge
and ono member of the board of regents.
Whether the committee will fool disposed
to look back and compare republican
promises with republican performance wo
cannot tell. It will bo remembered that
the last republican state convention was
in such a hurry that they could not digest
the platform but bolted the whole. That
was plainly the reason why so many re
publicans bolted the convention nomina
tions later in tliu fall.
Tliu committee has not met in full
forcu since the latu cyclone. Perhaps
this will bo a good time for a sober second
end thought over the causes which have
brought about the election of a republi
can governor in Nebraska by a plurality
vote and the election of a democratic
state treasurer in a state that gave the
last republican state treasurer 20,000 ma
, jority. i
! The committee need not delude thorn-
Helves into the belief that last yearV
storm was a more local cloud burst , whicli
ia not likely to happen again. Bofon
the men who have loft the republican
fold will return to their former party allegiance
legianco , they will want better atiauranci
of good government than mere plat Corn
professions and empty promises. Tin
la last legislature allowed the cloven hoe
and the record made by the party wil
first have to bo undone by strong antimonopoly
ti-monopoly legislation before antimonopoly
opoly republicans will coalesce with tints
party organization.

Kulogy has almost u.xhntmted itself in
respect to the greatest of our magazine * ,
and yet each succeeding month brings
us Harper's with new features of interest
and now claims to praise. The July num
ber , in matter and manner , ia equal to
any of its predecessors , and that is high
praise. The illustrations are of an order
in design and execution in keeping with
the now traditional fame of the firm in
that regard , while in the letter-press
every taste ia provided for , "from grave

Mr. Sutherland Edwards contributes * a
second paper on "The Uomnolls , " a ftuli-
ject now particularly interesting. Colonel

space much of interesting information.
Olive Logan's paper on Cincinnati is one

ment of fiction ia well supplied in serial

Curtis discoiiraea from Kany Chair in his

poems and short akctehes , the attestation

to the pages of Harper's. Hut what need
to particularise , Harper's is Harper's.
In The North American Review for
July , President .Julius P. Seelyo writes of
"Dynamite as a Factor in Civilization , "
taking of the subject the reassuring
view that dynamitimu being merely a
symptom of present discontent , is neces
sarily a transient social phenomenon ,
which will quickly disappear as the insti
tutions of government are brought more
into harmony with the interests and
aspirations of the masses of the people.

of interesting and timely articles , witl

The freight charges on wheat and corn

ago to New York , Baltimore or Boston ,
n average distance of more than 1,000
uiles , have not been on the average
bovo 85 a ton or 850 a carload for the
ast four years. The frieght on oranges
rom Los Angeles to Chicago says The
Tribune of ! ! 1 is ' '
Chicago May - $ 2'2 > per
carload. The orange and nut crop is a
nucha | staple crop at Los Angeles as
vheat and com in Illinois , Iowa and Mis-
ouri , and as easy of shipment by rail ,
The distance by the southern route ia
about two and a quarter time * the dia-
aneo from Chicago to Boston , but the
reight charge on oranges is four and a
lalf times aa much its the freight charged
> y Eastern roads on wheat and corn or
m flour and pork. Oranges should
bo carried by railroad from Los
Angeles to Chicago for 8125
a carload , while the monopoly rates are
$ ± . ' 5. The extortion is just 8100 on
every carload , and , sis The Tribune points
out , it makes thia luxury of California
production too expensive to be enjoyed
jy the majority of the people of Chicago.
Granges from Jalapa , in Mexico , can bo
aid down in the Chicago and St. Louis
narketw cheaper than oranges from Los
Angeles , and English walnuts duty on ,

under the same ban of exclusion from
eastern markets. We produce the be t
iprieots , peaches , pears , plums and table
rapea in the world , and there is a de
mand in eastern eitiea for all we can pro
duce , but thia transportation monopoly
charges rates so high as practically to ex
clude them from those markets.
