Tun appointment of General Daniel K.
Sickles as sheriff of Now York county is
ono of the few commendable acts of Gov
ernor 11111. In his forty odd years of
public life , civil and military , General
Sickles has proven competent and faith
ful in every position. It is a matter of
regret that in the aitumii of life ho
hhonlil ally himself with the disreputa
ble Tammany gang.
TIIK prevailing distress in South Da
kotaduoto a partial crop failure , has not
materially shaken confidence in the
llnanelal strength of the new state. Its
four per cent twenty year bonds , to the
amount of ono hundred thousand dollars ,
recently sold In Now York at the re
markable premium of nine and IIve-
elghths per cent. The sale olTeetually
disposes of the home grown fears that
the i-livulation of reports of the state's
condition would damage its credit. It
ehows that the conlldenee of capital
ists in South Dakota's future is unim
paired and refutes the absurd corpora-
lion stories that the agitation for re
duced railroad rates in Njbraska and
Kansas will affect their standing In the
Uioney marts.
on the heels of Tom Kennard'ti
board of trade resolutions comes the
alarming news , evidently from the same
pourco , to the olTeel , that "a number of
Nebraska gentlemen who have just re
turned from the east , report a general
feeling in that section against the
state ; " that capitalists are afraid to in
vest owing to the reports of distress , and
that they think the farmers are starving
and business wrecked. The writer is
vut\\ careful to conceal the names and
business of the "Nebraska gentlemen , "
or to toll whether or not ( ho
alleged "feeling of distrust" was
conlined "to railroad headquarters.
Perhajw the triplets of the state board
of transportation , whose shattered
health recently required a journey to
the oiiit , discovered the alarming condi
tion of public sentiment , and with that
zealous regard for the common weiil
which distinguishes them , broke theseal
of .silence long enough to warn the peo-
pie , The evident object of these alarm
ing reporls Is to weaken the demands of
the producers for ti reasonable reduction
of freight tolls. The circulation of such
rojior a serves to show to what desperate
HtmlU the railroads are driven to stem
the popular lido In favor of freight ro-
ductlon.

Tim results * of the town elections In Ne
braska Tuesday , so far an they relate to
the question of lleeiiMj or no license , are
significant. They show that the people
tire giving Intelligent and practical con
sideration to the very Important Issue
upon which they will render judgment
next November , and that the trend of
sentiment Is very decidedly against the
proposition to engraft upon the constitu
tion of the state the policy of prohibi
tion.
In fifty-four towns the contest between
Hi'ciiMe and no licence was distinctly made
the chief issue in the election.1 * . Forty-
four of these towns decided In favor of
llcens'\ and ten against. Of the former ,
llfteen last year adopted no license and
have now rejected that policy , while of
the latter but three changed front from
llcen.ie to no license. The very marked
gain for the cause of license , in a class
of towns where the prohibition inlluence
is especially active , Is especially Instruct
ive and significant.
This result , very satisfactory and en
couraging to the advocates of a license
policy , was not brought about by any ex
traordinary general olTort on I heir part.
The opponents of prohibition have as yet
done nothing , while the propagandists
of that , policy have been active and have
had the Held wholly to themselves. The
expression of the townspeople is therefore
fairly to be regarded as the outcome
of an intelligent and practical
study of the situation , guided as well by
the experience of the people of the states
as by what they have themselves ob
served. Whenever reasonable men
add ress themselves in this way to the
consideration of the question of license
or prohibition they have no dilliculty In
seeing the superiority of a lawful regu
lation and restriction of the liquor truf
fle over a policy under which the
trallle is everywhere carried
on covertly , thereby increasing
the evils from it. Furthermore ,
the people are beginning to seriously
think of what may bo the porwiblc consequences
quences to the future material welfare
of the state from the success of prohibi
tion. The damaging elTeets of that pol
icy elsewhere are well attested , and
there is every reason to suppose that it
would bo as injurious in Nebraska as it
confessedly has been in Iowa and Kan
sas. Men who desire a revival of pros
perity will not vote to inaugurate a
policy very certain to increase the pre
vailing depression. The romilts of the
town elections are reassuring to the
friends of license and local option and
will give that cause a considerable im
petus. „ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
A r
The resolutions passed by the execu
tive committee of the Minnesota Farm
ers' alliance denouncing the decision of
the United States supreme court in the
Minnesota "milk rate" and "switching"
cases , undoubtedly relleets the feeling of
the farmers of the west very generally ,
Although the decision , its wo iavo here
tofore noted , does not in terms deny the
right of a state legislature to fix rates
of transportation , either directly
or through a commission created
by its authority , the opinion
that the Until determination of the rea
sonableness of rates is a question for ju
dicial investigation obviously imposes a
restriction upon 1 ho authority of the state
which , as the dissenting justices said ,
"practically overruled the decision of
the court in other cases in which it had
been held Unit the adjustment of rates
was a legislative prerogative , and not a
judicial one. "
In what are known as the "granger
decisions , " the principle was clearly laid
down that the states bad the power to
llx maximum rates. The plain and uni
versally accepted meaning of those de
cisions was that it is the prerogative of
the legislature to name what should bo
ti reasonable rate , and that the legisla
ture ' having done this it is final and
conclusive. Unquestionably all subse
quent railroad legislation has been based
on tliis view of the granger decisions ,
but under the latest decision ,
which gives the legislature or
its representative only provis
ional powerto regulate rates ,
it is doubtful whether the legislation al
ready enacted is of any value. At any
rale , attempts to enforce it are very sure
to encounter opposition at every stop
which would keep the courts busy with
the contests between the stale * authori
ties and the railroads. There is a slight
advantage to the people in the fact that
whore the rates are fixed , either by a
legislature or by a commission , such
rates must be taken as the law of the
hind until the judiciary 1ms decided the
question in case the aggrieved parties
appeal to the courts.
The far-reaching importance of Ibis
decision is obvious , and it is very ques
tionable whether its ultimate effects
will bo quite what the corporations hope
for. They hailed it as u promise of linal
release from state regulation , but they
are very likely to bo disappointed in
this , if indeed the people do
not demand legislation , state
and national , more rigid than
any yet provided. The fact that the supreme
premo court was divided in opinion ,
with a strong dissenting minority , war
rants a popular doubt of the wisdom and
justice of the decision rendered , and a
ro-as.sorllon of tin- right of stale control
which may bring the question again
under review. Meanwhile the prerogative
tiveof fixing rates should bo conlined
wholly to the legislature.
W.s'.l/ / ' / ( " ; ' / > A'KII' KXtlL.lXDKllS ,
The New England delegation in con
gress Is reported to bo very much ills-
all'ecled over the action of the ways and
means committee In restoring hides to
the dutiable list. It will bo remembered
that when the llrst draft of the tariff
bill was made u duly was ' proposed on
hides. This brought out a vigorous
protest from the entire hide and leather
Interest of New England , and the ma
jority of the ways and means commit
tee agreed to replace hides on the free
lUt. The announcement of this action
tiont the representatives of the cattle
growers to Washington , and they In
duced the committee to adhere to a duty
which was somewhat modi tied from that
originally proposed. Hence the dlssat- ,
Ibfaclion of the roprctcntatlves of Now
Kngland.
The course of the committeeIn this
nnttor was most extraordinary , and
without considering the merits of the
question whether It Is expedient to put a
duty on hides or allow them to come in
free , as they have done for nearly twenty
years' , It Is apparent that the new
Kngland congressmen are justified in
their displeasure. They have been tri
lled with in a way that does not reflect
credit on the majority of the ways and
means committee , and it Is n mutter of
self-respect with them to resent it. Hut
they will probably not confine them
selves to lighting the hide duty. They
have another complaint In the proposed
Increase of the duty on carpet wools , In
which they will very likely bo
joined by some of the Penn
sylvania represesontativcs whoso con
stituents are extensively engaged
In the manufacture of carpets. It Is
pretty well understood , also , that the de
mand from NowEngland iron mamifac-
hirers for free raw materials , which the
ways and means committee has entirely
ignored , will again make Itself heard on
the floor of the house. No appeal for re
lief has been more urgent than that made
by these iron manufacturer.- * claim
that inevitable ruin must overtake their
industries if they are not given free
raw materials , and It Is not
to be supposed that their rep
resentatives will permit their claim * to
be denied without u further appeal.
This condition of nlTairs somewhat
pointedly illustrates the largo part that
sectional interests , as well as special in
terests , must play in framing a tariff pol
icy , and therefore the gr.oat dillleulty of
mtiking such a policy truly national. It
1ms been the experience t.'ith every tarilT
measure since lite war , and the embar
rassments increase from year to year
with the changing conditions of busi
ness.
a SAi iitr a n AH.
Now that the courts have decided that
Sllcott , the defaulting sergeant-at-arms
of the houf-e , was a public olHcer , and
not a private.1 broker and slako-holder for
members of congress , wo can see nothing
improper In an appropriation by congress
to make good the embezzlement. It is
not expected that members of congress
should serve the people without pay , and
there is no semblance of the back-pay
grab in the appropriation to pay them
back what had been stolen by a govern
ment ollleer. The blame rests entirely
upon previous congresses for failing to
require a good and suflicient bond from
their disbursing olllcers. Now , that the
horse is stolen , it is rather late to lock
the stable door , but we venture to lire-
diet that there will bo no more Sileott
defalcations.
TUB outrage perpetrated on the tax
payers by the late "vigila'nt'1 city ad
ministration in refunding twenty-nine
thousand dollars of paving taxes to the
street railway company becomes more
conspicuous when probed to the bottom.
It was a scandalous exercise of power
and an injustice to the taxpayers. The
assertion that the city could not retain
the money is absurd in the light of the
fact that four thousand dollars was with
held. If the company could recover any
of the money by process of law
it , could recover all. But the
council , with characteristic gener
osity in dealing with corporations , re
pealed the law requiring the company to
pay in advance for improvements torn
up , and substituted one requiring pay
ment on the installment plan , and fol
lowed it with iinother , secretly and
hastily passed and approved , refunding
seven-eighths of the money paid in.
There was no attempt to protect the
owners of abutting property. The his
tory of the deal is stamped with fraud
and exhibits in lurid colors the trickery
and dishonesty of the late municipal ma
chine.
Mu. C'ONNKkr , wants two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars appropriated for
dredging the Missouri river. A quarter
of a million will go about as far towards
dredging the upper Missouri and mak
ing it navigable as a bucketful of water
would toward irrigating the bad lands of
the Dakotas. But that quarter of a mil
lion will of course afford subsistence for
the Missouri river commission which is
about as useless a body as any that
draws substance out of the national
treasury. If Uncle Sum's surplus is
bound to bo distributed among the people
ple , there are many projects much more
otTootivo anil desirable than dredging
the upper Missouri river.
TIIK provision of the now tariff bill
proposing a bounty of two thousand dollars
lars a ton on raw silk will have a ten
dency to rejuvenate the cocoon hatcher
ies of California and give the heathen
Chinee on the coast some excuse for re
maining. '
BUUICA'S thirty-two dollar
error is such a rare Incident of personal
"shortage" in public life that it cannot
be too severely censured , The judge

'J'nt : UKI : of March l ! * , the morning follow
ing the llrst meeting of the association , virtu
ally inndo the same remarks , through Its
representative , who was reporting the pro
ceedings. When my attention was cnlleil to
the statement I went to the reporters' table
to ascertain why words were attributed to me
which had been uttered by others , but found
a different reporter from the one who hnd
been there the day before. Upon my stilting
the ca.so , this gentleman offered to contradict
tlie report , saying that "it should not have
been published , especially as it was not the
truth. " Ho nt the same time advised me to
drop it , as but little had been said regarding
it , and that nothing further should appear.
The next day , however , something further
did appear , and that in tliu editorial columns
of the same paper , and it begins to look as if
Tin : BKI : was either purposely misrepresent
ing me. 01- ( lid not understand" case.
Tin ; Bin : is well aware of the fact that the
meeting was not called to discuss the ques
tion of prices , but to devise some means to
protect the retail dealers from certain Omaha
wholi-salo houses , which are in the hnbit of
soliciting the retail trade in sections whore
they are wholesaling. After the committee
on constitution and by-laws had retired. I
asked the chair if the gentlemen nt the table
in front were representatives of the Omaha
daily papers. Being Informed that they
were , 1 remarked that it might be well to re-
iniest them not to publish the proceedings in
lull , as .something might be said that it would
bo well to keep from outsiders , feeling Hint
the Omaha wholesalers would not raw to
have their actions commented upon , as I
thought would bo done incase tlie proceedings
were published in full. Several others agreed
with me , and n dealer bittingu few seats back
of me made the motion to exclude reporters.
This is the motion that has IKJUII falsely at
tributed to me. In thedebato which followed
I distinctly stated that I had not come to tlie
meeting with any grievance ! . ; that my busi
ness had not and was not suffering ; that
Omaha wholesalers hud not been infringing
upon my territory , and that as fur as I was
personally concerned. I did not care if the
proceedings were published from beginning
to end.
? sow It lias been intimated that Hie lumber
men were combining iigainst the interests of
the fawner. Knowing that nothing of tlie
kind was done , of intended to be done , for the
interest of the people at large , and in justice
to the lumberman of Nebraska I would sug
gest that a full account of the proceedings of
the convention b published. The reporters
for the Omaha dailies were present through
out Hie session , and certainly know what was
done.
As the question of prices was not touched
upon , anil as I did not even become a member
ot the association , the it-porter's false state
ment which the editor sought to .magnify to
almost a capital crime against the farmer ,
falls very Hut. Jonx DIUN. :
High hiccimc in Philadelphia.
Philadelphia Press : The. working of
the high license law is a pertinent sub
ject at the annual meeting of the Law
and Order society. While that organi
sation may not be directly responsible
for the law. the latter owes the greater
part of its elllciency to the energetic and
untiring persistency with which the of
ficers of the Law and Order society se
cure its enforcement. The license court ,
with the best intentions to enforce the
law in spirit and in truth , would have
been comparatively helpless without the
guidance of the Law and Order society's
counsel , and without the benefit of the
evidence accumulated by its agents.
In spile of the defects'in the wholesale
law , and the existence of many speak
easies , high license in Philadelphia has
worked a notable reformation. This is
shown in the very marked decrease in
the yearly commitments to the county
prison since high license went into ef
fect as compared with the years before.
The figures are as follows :

High license in Pennsylvania began
Juno 1 , 18H8. The society\s year ends
March 1. To facilitate comparisons the
ligures are given for terms of nine
month. The number of commitments
for intoxication alone in the same period
idiows a still sharper decrease under
high license , the figures being lt0 ! ! ! ( )

the tv-o yenrs of high license. The Mon

intoxication speaks with still greater
eloquence. The figures for these , cover

the first two of high license , are as fol

This shows that high license is con
ductive to tiohornchS , good order , and
Sunday observance in a very marked de
gree , The increased wholesale business
allowed under recent decisions will ac
count for the slight increase last year in
drunkenness and in its consequences. It
Is easy to overestimate the en'octs of the
" .ipealc-oasies" whore llipjor is sneak-
ingly and secretly sold. Their grout
number said to bo ! 3Ml ( ) ( is deplorable ,
but in spite of them our city is much less
drunken than It was.
It uiuitt be remembered that unlicensed
duns existed under low license us well as
under high [ and flourish and multiply in
prohibition states ] that such places are
notreadlly found except by the initiated ,
and that they are frequented chiefly by
confirmed topers , It is not thene that
seduce the H > her men and 'multiply
drunkards but all the same they
should be suppressed and thereis every
reason to believe that they will find
existence much moro dlllleult , since the li
cense court judges have got on their
tracks. In spite of these leaks , the evi
dence is conclusive that with high li
cense Philadelphia enjoys a decrease of
more than one-half in drunkenness , dis
order , Sabbath-breaking and crime.
[ And that is moro than prohibition
can show in any largo city , or. In fact , in

Lts-cot.v , Nob. , April 2. [ Special to Tnr.
Bin : . ] Thostatc board nf tnuHxrtnton ! | ) ! met
this afternoon nt'4 o'clock mid was culled to
onler by Auditor Benton. the chairman of the
board. Before taking up the M | > eeial subject
for which the meeting was railed the chair
man inquired regarding the payment of the
salaries of the secretaries of the board , and it
was decided to pay them on demand , the
vouchers to bo signed by the chairman.
Clerk Holmes rend the minutes of the last
meeting , when the attorney general explained
the steps ha had taken pursuant to the reso
lution passed asking him to appear before the
Intel-state commerce commission to sermv. If
possible , n reduction of freight rates on long
haul shipments of corn. He stated that with
Secretary Gilklson he had formulated n com
plaint which was properly tiled before
the commission , and that when the roads tiled
their answer nml llxed the date for legal
hearing they would trv to prove the allega
tions as chUrged. Thfs does away with the
current understanding that the late sitting of
representatives of the commission In this city
was to Inquire into the complaint of the state
board as tiled and published in almost every
paper In the stall1. When the Issue is Joined
by the answer of the roads and the cause on
hearing before the commission , the attorney
general says he will try to miiko good the
statement he mndo to Mr. Holdrege to the
effect that he could prove every allegation
that the complaint contains. At Hie conclu
sion of his explanation he Introduced the fol
lowing resolution , and moved its ail option :
Whereas. The local frelL'ht rates In Nebraska
are exorbitant and uulust when conipaied
with rates In Iowa , therefoie be It
liexolved. That the board of .secretaries bo
and they arelii-reby ordered to prepatc a Jiiit
and reaonalileeheilnli ) of frchjlit rate- , for
the transportation of ficltilit In Sebraska , and
ba.-e the same on the rules charged
In Iowa and return tliu same lo
this hoard r of transKirlation | forthwith.
Secretary of State Cowdery spiling the
chestnut that inasmuch osj Commissioner
Stei'u was unavoidably absent , and as the
'
board had been try ing'to .secure a full meet
ing to dihcuss the issue embodied in the reso
lution for .some time , justice to htm demanded
on adjournment for two weeks ami ho made
the necessary motion for it. Cold , clammy
silence greeted him. Ho took some of the
medicine administered to Lceso a few weeks
ago. Ho failed to get a second. State
Treasurer Hill , in a few ringing remarks ,
stated that from the best information he
could obtain the time had come for n induc
tion of local freight rates , and that he was
ready to take the initial step. He
.seconded Lcose's re.sohition and the chair
called for remarks. Mr. Hill again took the !
lloor and stated that the resolution ought to
pass for the reason , if no other , that the work
of the secretaries had to come buck to the
board for linal action , and that the schedule
l > repnred by them could be "voted up or voted
lown. " . Moreover , he continued , ' -Mr.
yteen can be present then ami have a voice in
[ lie final determination of the question. "
Jonthiiilng , he said that if the tariffs were as
Hiuy hud been cited time and again , in this
state , it was eminently proper that tlie roads
should take a tumble and that longer putting
off was but procrastinating tlie dearest inter
ests of the people.
Cowdery remained silent.
Benton suggested that the board ought to
.ake into consideration the fact that Xe-
jr.iska was a younger state than Iowa , and
iccded moiv roads , and that to take steps
tliat would stop construction and retard de
velopment would be disastrous if not suicidal
to the best interests of tlie state. He was not
yet ready take such action.
Lecse emphasized Treasurer Hill's remarks
and enlleiHor the motion. It was put. Be
hold the result :
Ayes Leeso and Hill. Nays Cowdery
and Benton.
As it takes a majority vote of the board to
pass motions or resolutions the chair declared
the motion for the adoption of the resolution
lost.
Adjournment was taken without date.
