The KebraHldi tlctnocratic phitform Is
\orboH1. The perfuniloi\v ; Ijuslnjuss of
arraigning the republican parly could
liiivebeeiiquilo nsofTcrtlvcly done with
f owe v words. The platform Is also tin-
truthful. It chiirgeJ tlio republican
l rty with havlii" pi vcn more than ono
hundred and ninety-five million r.cros of
the publicilonnilnto railroad ( corpora-
N'o such amount o ! land has been
granted to the railroads , th'o total of
such grants bdngono hundred and fiftj--
five million acres , and the policy ol
granting lands to aid in the construction
of railroads did not originate with the
republican party. It was initiated in
1S.)0 by tlio passage of the net to aid the
lllinoU Central railroad , imd at that
time the policy was favored by such oml-
neat democrats as Stephen A. Douglas
and UnviaCass. Thesoiloinocratlc states
men supplied mifoh of the ablest argu-
inontln flefento of the policy before the
republic-ail party was born , and It is
a tribute to their far-soeinjr statesman
ship that thobonefitH which Ihoy pre
dicted would ( low from the policy have
boon rcn.ll/.cd , and to an In finitely greater
extent than thcycoulil liavo foreseen.
Thalthoro hnvo Iwon abuses oltholand

that till public lands bo reserved

of tlio Cleveland administration in
the matter ol rwtorlng lands to the
public domnin dot-hired forfeited by con
gress Ignores the credit due ton. repub
lican senate for tint legislation.
Tlio platform contains the usual plati
tudes regarding the friendship of the
democratic party for the fanner and
laborer , despite the fict : _ that there is
nothtlig In tlio history of tfio party to
justify hiieh a pretension. That party
vigorously opposed tlio liomestoad and
pre-emption laws , and we do not recall a
single : ict of national log-islat.ion for
which it was responsible- that was in the
Interest ol thofarmor and laborer. What
does the revolt of tlio farmers in the
south moan but protest against demo
cratic policy In. tlio tul wlnisti'at ion of
slate n tTnlrs Inimical to the interests
and vrelf ure of the agricultural elas ?
In a dozen or more eoiijrossioml
districts of Uie south the democrat * now
representing them , some of whom have
been many times re-elected , have been
shelved and candidates favored by tlio
fanners , In niost'fiises thwnsclves farm
ers , have been nominated. There will
prolublybe sit least thirty of the south
ern democratic senators relegated to prl-
vato life and men elected as their suc
cessors in wlwm the farmers liaveconfl-
dencu. The demoeratlu p'trty has been
In political control In the south fer
twenty years , and instead of having
shown itself friendly to thu farmers and
laborers it has so neglected tlioir Inter
ests and welfare as to have brought
about ix revolt which promises to de
stroy tlio domination of tie party in
that section.
The platform squarely endorses high
license and local option , and that plank
is , in our opinion , in accord with tlio
sentiment of a large majority of the
people.
'The other declarations of the Ne
braska dotnoiracy , and particularly its
patriotic utterances , will bo talven for
what they are worth measured Ijy thu
past course of the party generally. Its
professed in forests in tlio old soldiers
docsnoteomportwell with the unqunll-
liedendorsement of Grover Cleveland ,
whoso unprecedented exorcise of the
vote power was made ehluily on pension
bills.
flKKER.lL AJMFSlt OX Z'&V.SJOA'S.
In his address to the Grand Army of
the Republic , General .Alger , referring
to the pension fiucstion , said that he was
aware of the disappointment of many at
the failure to secure a service pension ,
but the pension committee had been
powerless tonccompltahvinoro than lias
been done , oiving to the fact that many
members of both branches el congress
declared they could not vote for tin
amount that , taken from the I'f'jriihir ex
penditures of the government , would ex
ceed its revenues. It was believed
that thocxpsndlturus in pensions under
exMlnilaws ; will exceed ono hundred
and fifty million dolhiva annually , and
after explaining the disability bill , re-
garilhii' which much niNapprelienslo'n
exists , General Alger said : ' 'Lotus be
just to our Inivmakciv , even though
they have not given us all wo asked. No
country on earth la or ever has been
nearly as generous to its soldiery as
ours. "
This Is the spirit in which every old
soldier should regard this matter , and
there is reason to bollove that very
generally they are so regarding It. No
congress since the war was better dis
posed than the present one to do all foi
the veterans that was compatible with
the public interests , imd In passing tlio
disability bill , under which more than
three hundred thousand applications
have already been imido to the commis
sioner of pensions , the jurty in coiitro'
of congress wont as fur sis it dared to po.
It was cstiinatod that thin law would in
crease the annual pension dihliursemcnts
of the government to the extant of thlr"
ty-flvemiUloa dollars , but it is alroadj
apparent tliat the addition will bo cou-
nlderaWy greater tlian this , and the cs
tinnitotlutt the total oxpeadlturo on
pension account will bo ono hundred am
lifty million dollars is likely to bo ox
cccdud.
Every old soldier who will considoi
this matter practically imd Impartliillj
will concede that tills Kinn constitutes as
heavy a burden as the pooole ouyht to
ho expected to boar for this purpose , nnc
ho must see , also , that any attempt tola
crease It would bo very likely to prove
dangerous to tlw pension system. Ills
true , ns General .Al er observed , tlia
this pension money Is distributed among
our cvn iK'oplo , and that there Is not i
community which does not feel its In
lluencutiiiiUo which It Is not a help , hu
nevertheless it must bo obtained by tax-
nt' ' a ttnd the American people will not
consent to bo nioro hourlly taxed than
tlioy aru at prwHut. In ono form and
another they are paying ns much , If not
nioro , for the support of government ,
national , state nnd municipal , than-the
pooploof England , franco or Germany ,
uad they justly dctnoud tlmt taxation
slmll bo reduced rjither thnn Increased.
Tnc pro sure in this direction Is every
car growing stronger , nnd no partythut
gnorcs It can expect toretaln the confi
dence of the people. The republican
wrty has faithfully kept Its i > ledyo to
, lo old soldiers , and General Aljjor was

The democracy of Nebraska has
placed a state ticket h nomination Avhlcli
may ho chissilled as from middling to
common.
It presents very much tlio appearance
ot an operatic troupe viewed through
the large end of the "glass. The longer
wo look at them the Btnnllor they ap
pear. And it is rather suggestive that
Lholr nomination was proclaimed from
an opera house stage amid the deafening
cipplaiiso of thobojs in the galleries ,
As the leading tttir of the democratic
troupe , Mr. 13oyd will create a favorable
impression. Uutliis support Is rather
weaknnd , the tin-horn patriots in the
orchestra will have to make IID for the
shortcomings of the second-rate war
blers.
In political parlance tlio democratic
stnto ticl < ot will average up fairlycon ,
sidering the material tliat has been
available for slate tickets in all the con
ventions. There is a lamentable ) dearth
of ilrst-cla s men willing to stand the
Ijruntof nslato campaignimd thosewho
are pushing to tlio front are generally
men who lack the csscntialqnnllfieatlons
and are cithorsoeklngpositions that are
\viiy nbovo their capacity and btation or
hanker after a prominence to which they
are not entitled.
James 1 ! . Boyd has been a successful
business man and possesses executive
ability of no mean order. Ho was doubt
less chosen togivotholickcl momentum.
Dr. Bear Is a popular democratic
wheel horse nnd ho is also somewhat of
> i reminiscence- Xebrnska politics. But
the lieutenant govornoris more of a wall
flower than anything else , and the nom
ination was simply complimentary.
The democratic candidate for state
treasurer , Mr.Cushiiig , Is doubtless qual
ified to handle the state funds with ad
vantage to him < elf imd the bank of
which hois cashier. The selection ofa
hmker for the olllco of state treasurer is
however , of doubtful propriety to say the
least.
Judge lliggins would make a good at
torney general if ho had any chance of
election.
The remainder of I\Ir. \ Boyd's troupe
are comparatively unknown quantities ,

The honest poor man never thought
that he should escape his taxes , hut lie
has often thought that the ricli man
should not bo allowed to escape his. It
is a , matter of general knowledge that
the voll-to-dooften evade the assessor's
questions and thus ewjapo paying any
where near their just proportion of
tuxes. Ilio recent assessments of Chicago
cage and Cook county allow how sadly
the manner of taxation' iicods revision.
There \vero only eight franchises as
sessed in the county , and those placed at
the low figure of aliout four thousand
dollars each. In the entire city of Chicago
cage , the second largest in-.the union ,
the assessors , under oath , were only able
to find two hundred and eighty-live
billiard tables , and they iveroestimated
to bo worth but twenty-four dollars and
eighty-nine centsoiich. Notwithstand
ing tlio thousands of patents
issued to Chicago citizens , and
the hundreds of novelty manufactur
ing companies in that great city , there
wore found but two men wlio remem
bered owninj a patent right , and the
value of boihivms but $2-30 , It was as
certained by the same assessors that the
two million souls in Coolc county pos
sessed diamonds and jewelry valued nt
the fabulous sum of sixteen thousand
nine hundred and twenty dollars , The
banks , bankers and brokers only had.
inunoy amounting to loss than a .million.
Thcio are the figures , and because of
sucli bave-faced falsehoods the pooi1 man
grows discontented. lie returns his few
scanty household goods , his sowing nil-
chine , which is his wife's luxury , as
with It she assists in earning : a livinj ,
an ills assessed higher than the billiard
table in the rich man's ' parlor ,
All men should bo compelled to pay
taxes on their property , lint there should
be udllTurcnt system of assessment In
augurated. The sewinf , ' maehino , the
musical Instruments and the horse and
cowof the poor mini should bo asiossed ,
as it is , but nt tlio same Unit ) the wcll-
to-ilo and rich should lifat every article
of value which tlioy possess , and pay
their just proportion. If the taxes wore
equalized , nnd iho rich and poor man
were compelled to bear the bunion ol
" taxation in proportion to tholr possoa-
"Bioiis , it would bo bettor ( or all con
cerned. The present system works a
glaring Injustice to the poor man ,

ActOKDiN'a to a revised estimate o !
, ho census sujwrvisor'sreturns the popu
lation of lown will not bo far from two
millions. This may bo'rcgarded as very
satisfactory when the conditions vliicli
have operated against Iho material
growth of the state are duly considered ,
It will enable Iowa to retain her delega
tion ololcvi-nln congress provided that
the ratio of representatives under the
now appoitionmenl docs not exceed ono
lumiircd and seventy-llvo thousand. The
last climate made by the census olllco
of the population of Nebraska places it
atone million and forty-two thousand ,
which is loss tha n the first estimate , but
is a gain In ton years of nearly six hun
dred thousand. Upon the basis of ono
niomlior for each one hundred and sev
enty-live thotHuiid of population N'o-
ji'iislvii would got six congressmen , doub-
.Ing her representation in the house ,
Uut voll Informed parties predict that
the final count will give Nebraska over
twelve hundred thousand population.
Kansas is credited with ono million
five hundred and fifty thousand , a train
ofllttlo over half a million In ten years ,
and she will got nine members of con
gress , an Increase of Uvo , on the basis
suggested as likely to bo adopted. The
fnct of Nebraska having grown moro
rapidly during the past ten years than
cither Iowa or Kansas is substantial ovi-
dcneo against the policy in the two last
named states which has operated to re
duce the value of property and check
enterprise , and ought to no conclusive
with practical men against the proposal
that Nebraska shall adopt a like policy ,
Tun failure of the Guaranty Invest
ment company of Atchison , Kansas , is
thought to boa forerunner of a number
of failures of mortgage companies In the
west. The .Atchison company claims
that Its embarrassment was duo to the
inability of Kansas and Nebraska farm
ers to meet their mortgage interest ,
This may be true In a measure , but from
the fact that there Is trouble among the
olllecra as to who shall bo appointed re
ceiver , the probabilities are that other
causes are resnonslblo for the failure.

TUB fact that the corn crop this year
will fall six hundred million bushels
below lint year's irront yield , according

further fact that corn is worth fifty cents

that overproduction had much to do
with the thirteen cent corn of last win

ITSETOIS Postmaster Gallagher was

edly at variance with the rules of civil
