THE OJVLAHA DAILY BEE : WEDNESDAY , JUNE 11 , . 1890. 5 HIE WORK OF THE ASSESSORS It Shows ths Valuation of the County as Less Than $20,000,000. , , A REDUCTION OF TWO MILLION DOLLARS. trim DniiRcrotiB K ( Toot is Apprehended I'rom tlio Showing null How They Are Viewed \ty \ Our Citizen * . The assessors for the county filed their re- < wrta yesterday. Thoassesscdvaluatlonof tlio county will , it Is said , on n rcasonablo esti mate not exceed $19,000,000. This is a reduc tion of $1,000,000 below that of last year und $2. OOO.lHX ) below that of two yearn ago. Speaking on the subject City Treasurer Hush' said : "While the books of tlio assessors , now Just returned for the present year may show Omaha's valuation to bo $1,000.000 less this 3'car than It was last , yet I know that the rcn.l fact Is thnt such a statement regarding the city of Omaha is as false as It must bo devilish. Onorabout January 1 of this year Tin : HBP. and every other dally paper In Omaha , sent out its squad of trained men , nnd by. weeks of toil obtained careful ilgurcs as to the improvements that fl liad been mndo during last your. I have n personal knowledge of how very thoroughly and fairly a great deal of that work was done so that I know exactly what I nm talking about. "When the work was finished nnd the vari ous papers footed up their totals they were found to bo wonderfully near nliko. Each of them gave the amount of Improvements ntndo during the year to bo a very small trlflo over or loss than $1,000,000. Tlio preceding year , the improvements in Omaha were some ! ,000 , < M. it is in the face of these facts that I assert that if the books of the now return ing assessors show that the valuation is a million less they lie , and Ho in the most damnable , most bungling manner ! "Tho facts to which I have attached my af fidavit as city treasurer for the Inspection of the bond markets of the world nt largo have , in the past three years , been these ; Tax. Valui.tlon. 3SS8 . , . Sl , , IS'JO . 20XX ( > ,10 "Now sir , if I have to send out a sworn statement this year that the tax valuation for 18111 ( this year's ) Is but 819,000,000 I cannot sell tlio bonds ol Omaha und the taxpayers of Omaha may as well hear the truth , while us for the world at large it is better to give both sides of this situation clearly , fully and distinctly than to practice any smothering dod o. If it is policy to lot the taxpayers know that the great amounts Of grading which they have been counting upon having donccannot bo gone ahead with , it is , to my mind , certainly tlio simplest of common sense policy , to say nothing of Jus tice , to tell them why it cannot be done. "I nm responsible the ( irst talking re garding this apparent falling off in valuation. It uumo about in just this manner : The other cvpiilng , happening to meet the First want assessor , I enquired what the comparl- j jou with last year's tigurcs would show. "lie replied that this year's valuation la the tflrst ward would bo $100,000 less than last year's. "I was simply stunned ! If I Iffld been felled to the earth with a club I could not have been moro astonished. "Dropping the business I had at hand I limited up the assessor in the Second ward. U'lii'n ? I found the astonishing disclosure had been repeated und was worse. "My next move was to inform the members of tlio city council of what I had heard. City Comptroller Goodrich was apprised of the fact , and immediately set about preparing a statement of the flounces of the city , which bo will have ready for the council by tonight. "What would I recommend to bo done ! Raise the assessment , nnd raise it with a jump. Do it not on one , two or three men's property , but by districts. " W. A. Paxton added his endorsement of Mr. Uush's idea and said that the assessment ebould be raised. Mr. W. I. Kierstcad said lie was not sur prised at the decrease , but thought it a very serious stnto of affairs. He could readily account for it , because each ward having a difTorent tussessor , the latter naturally would try to favor his friends who elected him and , through friendship , would keep the assess ment as low as possible. "Tho county commissioners , " ho said , "have the power to increase the assessment by wards or county precincts as much as they sec fit , and I should favor an Increase nt the present time of at least 20 per cent. Our assessment is nearly $2,000,000 less this year than it was two years ago , when everyone ought to know our values have increased at least 23 per cent In that timo. To go into each Individual case and raise It a certain amount is out of the question as it not only makes an enormous amount of extra work but accomplishes little in the end and makes a great many people feel as though they wore singled out to pay more than their just proportion of taxes. Human nature Is alike the world over and everyone is satisfied when ho feels ho is pay ing "in the same proportion as his neighbor which could bo accomplished by raising the assessment by wards or precincts. It will never do to have it said In eastern money markets that Omaha 'Is played out , Is going backwards. ' Our bonds would sell at a dis count Instead of nt a handsome premium as In the past and Omaha , us city , and wo as In dividuals would suffer alike. "If our general fund is exhausted this year so we can do no grading , in what condition would wo bo next year with our increased oxiKMiscs. I hope the county commissioners will have the backbone and good sense as I know they have to give us an increase of at leant -0 percent. The city council is power less under the present charter to raise tlio county assessment mid wo will certainly not liavo enough money next year to run the city ioveniment. ; " ' It H the opinion of prominent business men nnd members of the city council that the val uat ion in question will not yield an income Hutllulcnl to meet the needs of the city gov ernment and a move is on foot among the lat ter to have the valuation Increased by tha county commissioners when they sit as a r J board of equalization. Mr. Henry W. Yates stated that ho had IKHJII Informed that the assessors had made up a plan among themselves to cut down the valuation , us they thought tuxes wore too "I 'am not prepared to say that this action of tlio assessors was all wrong , " said Mr , Yates. "but the matter should bo thoroughly Investigated and If they nro wrong It should bo changed by the board of equalization. If the taxes will not bo suftlclent to meet the needs of the city , the amount should be In creased by raising the valuation. Our entire - tire .system of taxation is wrong and should be changed , but lus long as it remains tlio way it Is wo must regulate things the best wo can. " "Tho valuation Is too low , " said W. V. Morse. "It docs our city a great Injustice. The real valuation is nearer $150,000,000 than $19XX,000 ( ) , and it should bo Increased to something like Its actual value. Of course. that would untail an increase in valuation alt over the state , or wo would bo compelled to pay moro than our shore of. state tax ; but something should bo done for the sake of the * credit ot the city. " "Tho valuation should bo increased , " said Dr. Miller. "I nm Informed that the valua tion will not yield enough to run the city , and It should bo increased. The city would have to pay moro than Its share of the state tax , but wo would have to suffer that In order to save ourselves. " After a consultation with members of the council Comptroller Goodrich said that the idea of preparing a statement of the city's llnaneoa to the council had been abandoned , the idea being that something mow than a hurriedly prepared statement was necessary. Mr. Cioodrlch also said that as ho under stood the councllmeu with whom ho talked , there would bo nothing doue about the sur prising situation. To Nervous Debilitated BIou.

Having visited Uradshaw yesterday nnd made a personal Inspection , I nm enabled to say , tljat tno whole truth as to the cffcctH of the terrible visitation upon that town last Thursday night has not been told. There were In the hamlet about two hun dred nnd fifty buildings of all classes ; only seven nro left in a standing position though badly wrecked and warped. All the rest are totally destroyed , A fair calculation of those familiar with the town , sny that not less than $ 100,000 worth of property in Bmdshaw and the immediate vicinity was wiped out. It Is all sunk and nothing to show for It. Happy homes nro gone. Not a vestige Is left. The Inmate3 have nowhere to lay their heads , and have nothing to start with again. Thcro were about six hundred Inhabitants lu the village. Their condition Is deplorable. It appeals with distressing earnestness to all charitably disposed people. At the request of the local committee , nnd In accordance with my own feelings , I ad dress to you this appeal and ask that you will bo pleased to take prompt measures to secure the aid which I know your liberal minded people will bo glad to give. The articles most needed , nnd for immedi ate use , are money nnd lumber. The city of York has met the demands ot the distressed people thus far for edibles and Is still supply ing them , but staple groceries will be needed from other points. Hardware will bo needed ; cheap matresses and bedding ; clothing nnd shoes of different sizes for men nnd boys ; nlso allkindsof underwear of different sizes for men , women and children ; cooking and gaso line stoves ; anything for the relief of the needy and suffering will bo most acceptable. It must bo home in mind that some months must elapse bcforo these people can sustain themselves. In the meantime they must bo helped. From the very moment news reached York of tlio awful calamity to Bradshaw , the mayor nnd all the people of the city responded with the utmost alacrity and promptness , and with a spirit of the most unselfish generosity which commands the admiration of all. They nro doing , nnd will continue to do , all they possibly can , in aid of their most unfortunate neighbors. Nearly all of the wounded have been taken to York , whoso people and physicians are tenderly nursing them. I nppeal'to you to bring this matter imme diately before your people that they may have nn opportunity to contribute to the relief of their suffering follow citizens. I know tlio magnanimous and liberal spirit of the people of Nebraska so well that I can readily say I know this appeal will bo nobly responded to. All contributions should bo directed to T. M. Shallenberger , cashier of tlio Brndshaw bank , Brndshaw , Neb. , who is the treasurer of the relief committee. The B. & M. will carry contributions from nil points on Its lines to Bradshaw free of charge. Very respectfully , JOH.V M. TIIAYIIII , Governor. An Appeal for Help.

COMMENCEMENT 'AT BROWNELL HALL The Missouri Hirer Appropriation ntul How 9 Bmlly Kiuisnn City AVuntH to Monopo lize It , The Hclfcnstcln cnscs were continued In the United States circuit court ycstcrdny morning upon motion of the attorneys for the plain- tltf , who Ritvo as ciutso for their request the fact that their client , John Holfenstcln , Is at present Incapacitated , mentally and physically , to appear before the court nnd testify in his own behalf. Another question that nroso In connection with the cases was whether they should bo tried singly or In a bunch. Judge Dntuly consid ered that the former course would bo uselessly cxtmvnpvnt both as to the con sumption of tlino nnd money. Ho said ho could sco no obstacle in the way of bunching these cases and did not propose to cncourago any other courso. Some of the attorneys thought that to try the cases In a lump would bo Impracticable as In some of the suits there would bo n di vergence of Interests. Judge Dundy said ho didn't think so. Mr. Kennedy , ono of the at torneys for the dcfenant asked the court if ho would bo willing to try the discs if they were lumped into three or four batches in stead of ono. Ho thought this would bo it moro feasible arrangement as it would enable the attorneys to sift the coses and arrange the similar ones in the same class. "Will the court , " said Mr. Kennedy , "try the cases if such an arrangement should bo madol" "Well. I don't know. " said the Judge. "You go ahead and get all the defendants to bunch nnd then wo will sco. " The petition of the plaintiff for n continu ance was strenuously opposed by the attor neys for the defendants , but the petition waa granted and the second day of the November term waa sot as the time for their trial , with the understanding that should an adjourned term bo held In October the cases should bo tried then. In giving his decision in the mat ter , the judge stated that it had been shown that the plaintiff was physically nnd mentally incapacitated to attend court at the present session and it would bo manifestly unfair not to grant the petition. District Court. Judge Clarkson sent Charles Mansfield , n fifteen-year old lad to the reform school yester day morning on the charge of Incorrigibility.

The twenty-sixth annual commencement of Brownoll hall took place yesterday morning- , the spacious assembly chamber being packed with the proud nnd delighted parents of the fair girl graduates , and their legions of ad miring companions nnd friends. The day was happily fitted for the occasion , blue skies llllcd with vapory clouds , with glints nnd gleams and rifts of golden sun- sluno botwen ; balmy breezes , ludcn with the multifarious odors from ( lower nnd blos som , symbolical of the glad occasion , with its thousands of possibilities , Its hopes and fours , Its triumphs and pleasures. The stage was occupied by Bishop Worthington - ington , Bishop Graves of the I'latto ; Dean Gardner , Dr. Dofierty , Kov. Dr. Brown and Colonel Chuse , representing the trustees. The graduates with their classmates occu pied chairs Immediately in front of the stage. wlillo the front part of the hall was occupied by the other students of the academy. The exorcises aliened with a piano duet by Misses Carrie C. Wismarnnd Allco Barker Marcho Honurolso , which was prettily and offoctlivoy rendered. The llrst essay was that of Miss ICuthorino Dinko of Omaha , an intelligent and well- studied paper upon the abstruse subject of the "Origin of Myths. " Miss Drake read In a low , sweet , out distinct voice and was rewarded - warded lavishly with lloral tributes at the end of her vury interesting and instructive effort. She Is a tall , comely girl and looked bright nnd fresh in her costume of white with simple lloral oruamonts. The piano solo , Gavotte , by Miss Jcsslo Tlshuo was a delightful number , executed with a good deal of dash nnd brilliancy. Miss Lulu Loring of Norfolk , read a some what singular essay upon "Genius in Jail. " Miss Loring told ho\v many great minds had gone out lu penury nnd beggary ; how genius had been mocked by shum , merit trampled upon by pretense nnd right crushed by wrong. She told in clear and concise language why this was , and altogether gave a disquisition on the dark and bright side of great men that v as most entertaining. Miss Loring la a tall , slender blonde , nnd was attired lu the customary white , with a bunch of white roses at her throat. Several llttlo sweet-faced cherubs waited upon the fair graduate with lovely baskets of Mowers as she closed. Miss Muym Halnbolt of Norfolk , n hand some girl , next made her stately bow , ftud rend a bright and sparkling pnper entitled Prophecy , " which wo * simply the happenings thnt nro supposed to occur after graduation. It was n recital of n fair graduate's experience on a trip around the world , Interspersed with clover and humor ous hits ujwn her follow-elassmatos. whom she found settled and married , wealthy fa mous nnd hnpjiy In the different foreign lands she visited. Sllss Halnbolt was warmly ap plauded ami remembered with u full quantum of ( lowers. The vocal solo by Miss E. Thorpe , with violin obligate , Mr. Lentz , was a musical treat. Miss Thorpe has n sweet voice , which gives evidence of great possibilities under cultivation. Mr. LcuU' accompaniment Was excellent , Miss Maud Ilnywiml , of Omaha , read with a great deal or dramatic fervor , n wonder fully Interesting essay , "The Women of the French Revolution. " Her eulogy to Char lotte Corday was particularly touching. This young lady was becomingly arrayed in a snowy lace dress , with whtto satin sash , roses at the throat and corsage. Miss Hayward - ward was nlso laden with roses and other flowers when she retired. Miss Winifred Beasley , of Council Bluffs , nn attractive young lady , read an essay en titled "Compensation , " discussing its laws with a wisdom and argument that was really remarkable. The supplemental llornl demon stration was as marked In Miss Beasloy's case as In any of those preceding her. "Tho Serenade , " a vocal solo , by Miss Maym Ralnbolt , was charmingly sung , nnd evoked rapturous applause. Miss Ralubolt was well accompanied by Mrs. Cotton. Miss Angelina Hanson of Omaha was the next graduate to make her bow. Her effort was an analytical dissertation on "Robert Browning , " which plainly showed that she lias boon a careful student of this poof works because she described the idlosyn- craclcs of the bard with a perspicuity that would do credit to n much older head than hers. She said that while ono could not fall to bo Interested in Browning It would bo im possible to become passionate or enthusiastic. Miss Hunscn was unable to gather her ( low ers from the stage. Miss Carrie Wasmor , n beautiful blonde , In n piano solo "Charito" Rosslnl-Llszt .won the most enthusiastic approbation from her entranced listeners. She plays ex quisitely , with the touch as light as the fall of a snow llako , yet full of power nnd lire and expression , as the robust efforts of a celebrity. Miss Wosmer was rewarded with a basket of Dijon roses. Miss .Tesslo Tlshuo of Seward , read a very meritorious paper on "Sharp Eyes , " and de livered the valedictory.

Mrs. Wyndson , who is a mother over Brownell's lovely daughters , wtw remembered with a loving and sympathetic sweetness that af fected all. Her furowt'l ! to schoolmates was tinged with sadness. Miss Tishuo was show ered with ( lowers. The waltz song from the cantata of "Cin derella , " by the class chorus , was an espec ially beautiful thing , and was accorded a merited round of applause.

Miss Minnie Crauso , the daughter of an extensive cattle owner at Bradshaw , Is at the Esmond , accompanied by her youngest brother. Miss Crauso very narrowly escaped the recent destructive cyelono at that plaoe , leaving the fated hamlet only an hour or two previously to the storm's arrival. The other members of the family went th rough it , how ever , but took refuge in a cellar and all es caped uninjured. She returned to Brad shaw after the storm and only left thcro yesterday morning. She says that the people are still suffering greatly ; that but very llttlo aid has been received as yet and that many are suffering for the bare ne cessities of life. A iy aid that is to be1 sent there , she thinks , cannot bo sent too quickly. Wherever Mnlnriu Kxists , tlio billions nro its certain prey. In intermit tent and remittent fever , dumb ague and ague cake , the liver is always seriously affected , and the blood contaminated with bile. Ono of the chief reasons wbv Hosteller's ' stomach bitters is such a sure defense against chills and fever and every form of malarial disease , is , that it does away with liability to the dis ease , by reforming irregularity or the biliary organ in advance of the arrival of the season when the disease is prevalent.
