ADAMS SUGGESTS A REMEDY
Awiitent City Attorney Eu Bill to Protect
City on Special Taxes.
METHOD OF MAKING ALL IMPROVEMENTS
On Bill Caratlve Mmire and
Other Anfili Charter la
Polnta Where It llaa Been
Feand Defertlre.
Asslstsnt City Attorney James H. Adams
has prepared two legislative measures
which are designed to remedy defects that
.lst under the present charter with rela
tion to special assessments for street Im
provements. One bill ia a curative act, In
tended to make It certain that the city will
be aecured for all special Improvements
made since the present charter became
law In 1897. The other proposition Is to be
Incorporated Into a charier amendment of
sections 110 and 111 and Is Intended to make
plain and systematic the way of the future.
The ability of dissatisfied property own
ers to evade special taxes by resorting to
the courts on points of technicality has been
a serious handicap In the administration of
tha city government, and owing to errors
and carelessness has resulted In the loss of
much revenue.
Contents of Curative Bill.
The curative bill Is explained largely In
the title, which Is as follows: "For an act
to legalize and validate all proceedings
connected with the ordering and making of
ny local Improvements heretofore made
under the provisions of chapter 12A of the
compiled statutes of the state of Nebraska
for 1901,' being an act incorporating cltlea
of the metropolitan class, and to authorize
reassessments for such improvements In
cases where prior assessments for such Im
provements are Irregular or void, or whero
such prior assessments were paid under
protest and the money paid thereon has
been or will be recovered back by suit at
law."
The bill provides that whenever any spe
cial assessments made under the charter of
1897 are Invalid, uncollectible or void or
are found so by any court for a variety of
reasons, such as Insufficiency of petitions.
Jurisdictional or other defects on the part
of the city council, the mayor and the city
council shall have the power to levy a new
assessment or a reassessment of the spe
cial taxes. It Is "provided further that all
proceedings connected with the making of
ny such local Improvements under said act
are hereby retrospectively legalized and
validated, and all defects In such proceed
ings and assessments are hereby cured."
Tha law Is to become effective Immediately
after paasage and approval.
This bill Is to be Introduced both in the
senate and house. Senator Hall to be its
ponaor in the senate and Representative
Gilbert in the lower house.
For Charter Amendments.
The charter amendment to throw out
safeguards for protecting the municipal
purse endeavora to establish beyond question
the legality of proposed improvementa be
fore a single step Is taken toward the ac
tual accomplishment of the work. It Is
made Incumbent upon the city clerk within
two days after the filing of any petition
for Improvements to deliver to the city
attorney and the city engineer, each a cer
tified copy of the petition. It then be
comes the duty of the city attorney to
examine the petition and the slgnaturea as
to due form of law, and bow many feet
frontage of taxable property has been
signed for by the record owners, and to
so certify to the lty council. The city
engineer is to certify to the council as to
the total foot frontage of the taxable
property and whether or not the property
signed for la correctly stated, and attach
f. plat of the Improvement district. Such
certificates, when filed in ths city clerk's
office, are to be prima facie evidence of
the truth snd correctness of the state
ments. If there are not sufficient property
owners signed, others may file a supple
mental petition.
Pahllcatlons and Petitions.
If the certificates returned show that
the petition la regular, legal and sufficient,
the city council shall direct the city clerk
to publish the petition for three days in
the official newspapers, with a notice in
forming the property owners concerned
that they will have twenty days to file pro
tests in the office of the city clerk. This
provision shall not apply to petitions for
tha designations of materials to be used
The protestanta are required to make their
objeotlona under oath and to furnish a bill
et particulars aa to defects. If a question
as to .the ownership of property Is set up.
the name and address of the true owner
must be submitted, and the objectors must
wear, that they are objecting In good
faith. After these objections are in the
petitioners are allowed ten daya to rem
edy any possible defects. This Is part
of. the clause that follows:
When any protest has been filed with
the city clerk, within the time hereinbefore
specified, the Improvement petitioned for
by said protested petition shall not be or
dered until the city council shall have given
the party protesting a hearing upon such
protest and shall have upon the evidence.
found, adjudged and determined said pro
tested petition to be regular, legal and
sufficientand not until after the time has
expired for perfecting an appeal from said
rinding, judgment ana determination.
. Consideration, of Protests.
Ia case of protest the city council shall
meet with due and Individual notice to pro
testanta and consider the objections. If no
protest be filed the council has power st
regular or sperlal meeting to determine the !
legality of the petition. In either esse the j
determination shall be final and binding .
as In a court of inferior Jurisdiction. No
court may entertain an ai peal except when
made within ten days, and after filing a
bond for $2,000. All damages and attorneys'
fees are to be paid by the plaintiff If he
loses.' The remedy by appeal to to be
deemed exclusive, and the appeal must be
made to the district court of the county
within which the city Is situated. Tho
mayor and council must wait ten days sfter
the council's decision as to the petition be
fore ordering the Improvements.

TWO POINTED EPISTLES.
The Itnllronda or the People.
YORK, Neb. Feb. 10, 1903. Tox the Editor
of The Bee: It is a foregone conclusion
that it rests with our present legislature
wheiher In 1904 there shall be one re
publican party In the state of Nebraska or
there shall be two? It Is for them to say.
"The voice of the people is the voice of
God." We demand that the railroads pay
their honest share of taxes In the same
proportion that other citizens pay. Is that
asking for more than the constitution Itself
says they shall do?
We demand that they be compelled to
live up to the agreement in their charter,
I. e., they shall not discriminate. Are they
fulfilling their part of the contract, and Is
the public fulfilling theirs? bet us ex
amine ourselves and let them examine
themselves.
We said we would make it possible for
them to procure the right of way through
ny farm, and If there could be no agree
ment as to price for damage it should be
condemned and appraised. Have we ful
filled that contract? Yes. We voted
thousands, yes, hundreds of thousands ol
bonds to aid them in building their roads.
We agreed to lay taxes on our farms to
raise the money. Have we, and are we ful
filling our promises? Yes. The railroad
said, you fulfill your part of the contract
and we will build the road. We will not
Iscrlminate against anyone. All shall
have the aame rights and privileges. We
are here to aerve the public. Every cltl-
sen has a perfect right to hire a car to
ship his freight. Have they fulfilled their
port of the contract? Let us see and let
them answer for themselves.
They have entered into an unholy con
spiracy with the grain trust not to grant
nyone outside the grain trust the right to
build elevators or warehouses on their
side tracks. They do not stop there, but
refuse to furnish cars to ship grain unless
you have an elevator and refuse to grant a
ite to build the elevator. Of course, the
consequence Is you nave to sell to the
grain trust, and if in aome accountable
way a car should be had the grain trust,
won't handle it at the other end. It looks
like the railroad officials are in the elevator
business themselves.
If they can break their contract, are we
In duty bound to keep ours? Now, we are
not asking them to lower freight rates.
We are Just asking ths rights that other
citizens have, but the voice of the people
will prevail if we have to sweep the state
house from top to bottom, for we know
there are enough clean republicans, demo
crats and populists in the state to csrry
out any measure that asks nothing but
ustlce and equality. We can all agree on
these polnta and they will not need a Bald
win to tell them what they want.
When bill No. 70 is in the hands of the
senate committee we demand a hearing be
fore said committee. We also demand our
present legislature, if they wish to serve
their constituents for the greatest amount of
gooa to toe greatest numoer, mat tney in
vestigate and see whether there, is and has
been a grain trust to rob the farmer of
the fruits of his toll, as they, with the rail
road, have taken from the farmer the rights
of an American citizen so he cannot sell
the frulta of his labor to whom he chooses.
We wish an Investigation at once.
X FARMER.
Retrenchment versa Revenue.
AINSWORTH, Neb., Feb. 11, 1908. To tho
Editor of The Bee: We hear very much
these days about a new revenue bill, and one
of its main objects seems to be to enable
the state to raise more revenue, with which
to pay off the atate's $2,000,000 Indebted
ness, illegally contracted. The state- con
stitution prohibits a 'state indebtedness ex
ceeding $100,000.
Is it not strange that in connection with
all this discussion no one has suggested
bill to atop the leaka and extravagance
which make more taxes and revenue neces
sary? Are the heads of departments and
atate institutions to continue exhausting
their several appropriations and then run
the state in debt at their own sweet will
and furnish deflclences for each succeeding
legislature? If so, then it matters but
little to the taxpayer what kind of a reve.
nue bill Is enacted, as It will have to be
revised again from time to time In order
to raise sufficient revenue to meet these
extravagant expenditures In excess of the
constitutional limitations.
A bill to correct the above abuses and
enforce allttle economy in atate expendi
tures would be of far more Interest to the
real taxpayers than the question whether
their property should be assessed st its
full casn value, or at one-third of that
amount, and a little ginger in tho mode
of collecting taxes, that all may be com
pelted to bear their just proportion of
public burdens, would be in keeping with
the best public sentiment. Those now pay
ing their taxes would suggest that In
drafting this new revenue bill it would be
well to keep in mind the vast amount of
outstanding, uncollected taxes throughout
the state and that a revenue bill that will
colleot taxes Is much more desired than
one that will simply Increase the burdena
of those who already pay. And, above all.
let us have some limitation upon useless
and extravagant expenditures.
Nothing la so retarding to the growth and
settling up of Nebraska, and especially
ths northern and western part of the state.
as excessive and extortionate taxation. It
la not only retarding Immigration, but ia
actually causing parties now residing here,
to Invest their capital elsewhere, where
taxea are reasonable.
The people of this part of the state are
anxiously awaiting aome symptoms of
economy from the present legislature.
Here la a field for aome real statesman,
who will also be a public benefactor.
