is hard to . ay which Is the mo
urprl. iiifr , the rapid growth
laiidlordNm in this country or the i
norance or iiidiflerrnco of its citi/ens i
this f-ubjeet. TlnTf ! is a popular beli
that tin ; agriculture of the country
carried on by the farmers who own tin
lands. How great is this delusion is ' ct
by an appeal to Matislics. The census
IKW was the first to take note of this s-.i
jeet. It showed 1,0.1,001 farms rented I
t'-nanls. Jn the live years which ha1
elap-ed it is a moderate and well co
ftldcred eetimali ! that the number has i
creased twenty-live per cent. In oth <
words there are more tenant farme
paying rent to landlords in the Unite
States than in the entire United Kin ;
dom. In the state of Illinois there ti
more tenant farmers than in Scotlati
At the Ramo ratio of increase tl
next census will see us wii
a tenant tanner population of fully
million and u half. The tendency
noted toward tenancy , even in tho'-o wl
now own their little farms , and tl
chief cause is said to be debt. Of tl
7,070,411 ! ) persons returned by the CCIIM
as being engaged in agriculture , ! > , ! )8I ) , ! ! (
were registered as nominal owners i
their holdings. Hut thousands and thoi
sands of these small farms are plastcrc
with mortgages. When the farmers wli
actually cultivate their own lands ai
deducted from II.e farmers whoM ! boh
lugs are mortgaged nearly to their vain
and from the capitalists who own farn
of 1,000 acres or over , the extent of lam
lordism is more strongly revealed.
Capitalists have always looked will
greedy eyes upon real estate investment' '
The growth of land monopoly is stcadil
advancing as ( he public domain dimii
islie.s. In lHIL'5,57i,0iO ! , ( ( acres of govcn
incut land capable of cultivation an
open to settlement was reported. Tw
thirds of this vast area has already bee
gobbled up , largely by syndicates an
their tools. The generosity of the go\
eminent to ils citixens has been abuse
in tins interests of land speculators an
monopolists. It was the much-abuse
Land Commissioner Sparks who was th
first to give the country ollicial warniii ;
of the enormous extent to which the pill
lie domain had been plundered. It ha
jecn his earnest work in attempting ti
lose the doors upon the thieve
IhaL brought down upon him th
'ury of the laud rings and the !
) rgans. The time is rapidly' aj ;
iroachiiig when every acre of tilhtbl
; overnmeiit land will bo exhausted
I'lii ) outlets for the over-crowded cast wile
> o gono. Land will necessarily ciihanci
in value and free homes for the million
ivill bo no longer the cry to turn west
ward the old lime stream of immigra

icnted to America for its solution just a

Tlio AHyliim Head Tnv.
When anything allectsOmaha unfavor
ibly some people and a good inaiij
liipers in this state caniiol repress thcii
oy. It was so in the matter of the enter
iriso of the attorney general when lit
iroiight suit to compel Douglas count }
0 pay the delinquent head tax for the in
auo asylum. In the eyes of those peoplt
ho attorney general had achieved a mon
; lorions triumph than if he had recoverei
10,000 acres of stolen lands or $2,000,001
if back taxes from the railroads.
Js'ow that the list of the counties whiel
ire in thu same boat as Douglas county
itis been published , these smart scoller.-
t Omaha are beginning tt
Hugh on the other side ol
heir mouths. The sum total , whicl
mder ho decision of the majority ot tin.
uprenio court will have to be collected
u special and needless ( axes , was $1(17 ( ,
70.88 in I88J. H is safe to say that it b
iver ip'00,000 at this date. Of ( Iris amount
) ouglas county will pay ti fraction ovoi
fni.OOO . and the remainder will bt
queey.ed out of the tax-pnyor.s of tin
tate. Thus , Lancaster county will bavt
> ver $1J,000 to pay , Hichardfiim over
; l',000 , Dodge about $11,000 , Sauiulur *
icarly $8,000 , Cass over $ (1,000 ( , Sarpy , Sa-
ino , Platte , Otoo , Johnson and Clay over
1,000 eauh und other counties all along
lie line in proportion. Thu poor frontier
ouuties will sillier even worse compara-
ivoly than the wealthier and older conn-
io.s. For instance , Cheyenne county has
vor $1,000 to pay on this tax ami Holt
icarly $1,800.
The ( | iicstloii arises , what is to bo done
, 'Ith this money when it is collected ? The
eneral levy for last year has fully eov-
red all the expenses of running the asy-
im , and the 'joard may levy the same
Ins year if they see lit , as they have al-
rays done , to exhaust the appropriation
lade by the legislature. If the $ > . > 00OOU
re paid In this year by special tax levy ,
ver $100,000 will lie dead in the state
x-asury until 1887. That will bo very
rolitablu to the banks and bankers who

ix payers. It is a question , however ,
bother much would bo left of the $ ' . ' 00 ,

The Mayor anil Council.
Mayor lloyil , in an interview , ailiulU
uit ho sent for Councilman ( Joodmaii ,
'hom ho he thought to bo a fair mananil
led to convince him before the council
ml voted on the Cummhigs charges ,
tat the marshal had been bribed and
lould be kicked out. Mr. Itoyd had
taken w much intere t in this cn c tl
lie employed liis own .stenographer
takedown the evidence. This was v (
kind In the mayor nnd how * that
wanted to enlighten members ofthat jr
with regard to ( liu necessity of a clian
in the ninr.-hahlilp Had the mayor p
sited thurunt ; tactics if Cummiiigs h
been on trial before a di trict court ji
the judge might limn told him some t
pleasant truths about lining improl
iuntieiice on jurors. Ivverybo
knows that the mayor is very anxious
get rid of Cuinmings. and there is a w
of dopoiing him if he U incompetent
guilty of malfeasance in olliee. lint
fair man cannot approve the attempt
put an tmjii-l stigma upon an ollk-cr ,
matter how much he is disliked , or cvi
if he is a numbskull as the may
charges.
Mayor 15oyd justifies his course by s.i
ing that he believes Cuniiiiing-t w
bribed because he showed such an tun !
interest. Will the mayor plea e evpla
why it was necessary to bribe Cummin
when thi ) judge had i sued nn order f
Travis' release ? If the friends of Trav
\ \ ereo stupiil as to .squander money i
the martial when ( he police judge w
the man who had to issue the order f
the release of Travis they must have al
bribed Jerome I'ont/.ol to keep him fro
making a record of the case. How do
the mayor reconcile the failure of Pent/
to keep his rerord with his hr > nosty if tl
theory of bribery holds good ? And i
Pent/.ol was brought fonvnrd with h
blank record to convict Ciimmiiigs. 1)
the marshal IK the judge and era-e tl
records made by his clerk ?
Thu whole thing ! > preposterous. Tl
cn-e had no bottom in the lir > t phtc
In his anxiety to get Cummin ;
out , the mayor has led himself
commit gross improprieties ,
eall them ] > y the mildest nam
The mayor says that the HII : ; is "a d-
lool" lor suggesting that ho should su
peud Cummiiigs if he had any got
grounds for so doing. He says there a :
at least six men against him in the cot :
cil and that therefore ho must wait ti
next April. This is imputing dishonesi
to at least one-half the entire legislath
branch of the city government. If a go
cruor should indulge in such an imputi
tiou against a logislatuie ho might gi
himself into very serious trouble. It
the mayor's privilege to suspend tl
marnlial or any otherolliccr if ho believi
him to bo guilty of a misdemeanor or ii
subordination. Upon the council tliu
must rest the rospoti-iibility ol dotormii
ing the justice of the charges. If tin
perversely countenance and give sui
port to disreputable or corrupt ' eondiii
in an olliccr they take tl'ie odium upu
themselves. The mayor has no right t
assume that the council will take an
such an indefensible position any mot
than the council could assume in ai
vanee that every man appointed by tli
mayor is di.shouest and incompetent.
A Standing Injustice.
The case of Kmerson Ktheridge of Tei
neoe , which was debated at length i
Iho senate at Washington a week ag <
liriugs once more to public notice Ih
! ? real injustice which is often done by th
failure of the statute of limitations to o ]
L'rate in the ea = o of bond-men of govcn
inent officials. The bill under debat
ivas for the relief of Mr. Ktheridge ,
itirety , who is sued by the govern muii
for $10,000 , fourteen years after the deal
jf the principal on the bond. The sui
for which the government seek
! o recover was expended in sti
: ioncry , printing and clerk biro b
Secretary Carter of Ari/.ona , now di
- ea'-ed. There is no question tiat th
government received the benefit of over
lollar expended , but the items were di ;
dlowed as "unaiithori/ed , " and year
ifter Mr. Carter's death were chargci
igaiust his estate , which was insolvent
I'he government now sues his boiulMiioii
mil one of these having no property
Mr. Ktheridge , the remaining bondsman
vill bo compelled to boar the entire loss
U Mr. I'thoridgo is old , infirm ami ii
ery moderate circumstances , congres
s appealed to for relief. The chief poin
uvolved is the failure of the govern
uent to notify the bondsmen as sooi
is the deficiency was discovered
vhich was in 1871. At that tinn
) otli the boniNiuon were ii
loudition to meet the loss with littli
lardship. Uut theollieials filed away tin
nipers and loft Mr. Kthoridgo entirely
gnoraut that any deficiency had boot
ound in Carter's accounts until in Apr !
list , when suit was entered. Souatoi
ilanderson made a strong speech in sup
lort of the measure , in which he referrei
o two eases of a similar nature whicl
lad occurred in Nebraska. In eacheasi
'cars elapsed after the deficiency wai
liscovered before the bondsmen wen
lotilled nnd the of the -
, negligeneo go\- '
rnmnnt was set up a.s a defense UUMIU
ossfully in both instances.
The statute of limitations runs in tin
use of postiminters but with no othei
lass of government officials. Then
* no reason or equity in the exceptions
iravo injustleo In done by the failure ol
lie accounting ollicers of the treasury tr ;
ettlo accounts more rapidly , and still
raver by their neglect to notify the re-
ponsiblo parlies whore deficiencies an :

rompt notification of principal and
iirctlea whenever any deficiency shall bu

Ulcer and makes a live year limitation

ounts by the treasury. Senator Man-
