To the Editor ot The Bee: The rertl Tuesday in honor of the Mlsees Bowen. j lesue before the voters of Douglas county District' Clerk Broadwell will be- required hereafter to report all fees earned by his i fflca,, instead of confining the report to the fees collected, according to an opinion given Hie. county commissioners by . Deputy County, Attorney Shotwel Wednesday aft urnoon. Heretofore the reports of county officers have Included only the fees actually collected. Recently the commles'oners de cided the officers are liable for feea earned whether collected or not and voted to begin xult against the officers for uncollected fee. Vnder. the opinion the commissioners will demand a complete' report of feea earned and' Mr. Broadwell will be required to amend- hit last quarterly report. at the coming election, so far ss the legts- latlve ticket l concerned. Is the question, shall the railroads ry their share of the city taseB of Omaha and South Omaha? The Bee has pointed out, what Is apparent to every observer, that the force of the combined railroads are masked behind the candidates of the democratic party, and the money of the railroads la to be spent freely In the Interests of the domocratlc ticket. The reason for this Is apparent. Tha republican state platform promises to make the railroads par their share ot mu nicipal taxes throughout the state. The democratic platform Is silent on thst ques tion and the managers of the democratic party have taken advantage of that fact to enlist the support of the railroads for their ticket. Not In year a haa a question been pre sented that ao vitally effects the Interests of every taxpayer, big and little. In Omaha and South Omaha, and the other towns of 'the state, aa the question the voters must decide next Tuesday. Shall the terminals of the railroad compantca pay their share 'of the city and town taxes T Today, while the small home owner pays 17-00 to 110.00 per year on his $1,009 home the railroads pay but a few cents per year on $1,000 worth of terminal property. If the taxpayers of Omaha and South Omaha send down to the legislature the twelve republicans atandlng on tha republican platform all thia will be changed, and tha small taxpayer as wall aa tha large lob ber and real estate owner will save one dollar in every five dollars ha now paya Into the city treasury. The efforts of The Bee to bring this fact home to every voter deserves the thanks of tha people, but It Is pertinent to Inquire why It Is not receiving the aid and co operation of those moat vitally Interested What ia tha Real Estate exchange doing? Where are tha men who have worked for equal taxation fur the last five years Now that the taxing of terminals, for which they hsve fought, Is about to be realised, are these people going to lay down and let the opportunity slip from their grasp. One thing Is certain, this re form can only ba accomplished by the election of tha republican delegation from Dougtaa county to the legislature.

Oct. 29.-TO the Editor of The Bee: The Bee report Mr. Bryan aa haV' ing said in Chicago yesterday that govern ment ownership of railroads will be the democratic Issue in 1908. I take thla to be an open challenge to tha democracy of tha country north and south to meet that ques tlon In the national Convention of that year. Since the Madlaon Square speech Mr. Bryan haa been very busy with ex pi ana tlons and apologies about that speech. In which ha 'haa publicly aald many ttmaa that his views of government ownership of railroads ware merely his personal views, and that he had no desire or In tentlon of pressing them aa an Issue on tha democratic party In l!0t. He nor- Jrops the mask behind which ha haa bean mas queradlng for months and takea a high jump to the front for a mesaure of can trallzation of power In tha federal govern ment and for state socialism and paternal' lam, which. If ever achieved, will mark the end of free government In tha United State. Tha plain truth about It Is that Mr. Bryan haa been scared out of his boots by Hfa Satanio Majesty, Jr.. William R. Hearst, who la now his rival for the presi dential nomination In 1908. The New Tork Homestake political desperado and outlaw has been stealing his thunder aa tha original apostle, next to Eugene V. Debs, of revolutionary discontent In the richest and most prosperous country on the planet He haa smoked Mr. Bryan out of his hole, which waa so large that ho could not pull It In after him, and the odors of hot sul phur between thfae old twins In the work of destroying tha democratic By reason of doubt among large easterl buyers as to the probable Interpretation of the pure food law as It relates to cold ; party will soon permeate tha air.

SOUTH OMAIU TRUST UUGflT Coal Xxchanea in Mario City Iodiottd by launty Grand Jury. BILL SAME AS AGAINST OMAHA TRUST Coaablnc Mill Abla to Raise Prices, However Reported to Be Knock ing Slabaacu aad Boost ing; Enaliah. Members of the Bouth Omaha Coal ex change are aald to be preparing thuinseives to answer to an Imlictment which waa voted by the grand Jury against tho al leged Bouth Omaha Coal trust Tuesday evening. Officials In charge of the granu Jury refused to discuss the matter Wednes day morning, but the report that a bill similar to the one recently voUd agalnat the Omaha dealers hsd been voted sgalnst the South Omaha dealers was persistent, and some of the Magic City dealers are aald to be arranging for bonds. The grand Jury haa taken considerable evidence in the South Omaha case showing the dealers ot that city are organised Into a coal ex change similar to tha one existing In Omaha. Tha indictment Is said to Include a score or more prominent South Omahans. The Indictment against the Omaha deal ers was returned about a week ago. The evidence taken by deposition by County Attorney Blabaugh In the civil suit In Judge Troup's court, which is supposed to be practically the same aa that taken be fore the grand Jury, waa aomewhat atronger against the Omaha doalera than the South Omahans. This Is believed to account for the delay In returning a bill against the latter. As an evidence that they are frightened out of their wits by these Indictments, the coal dealers are still tacking on a mite or two now and then to the price of coal, and the end is not yet, some say. Friends of County Attorney Blabaugh assert the Coal trust members are supporting Jim English In the race for county attorney as a punish ment for Slabaugh's "pernicious" activity. English, with the editor of the World Herald, it will be recalled, sanctioned the preeent code of laws under which the Coal trust Is operating and manifestly came to Its present maximum of strength.
