sPEECA OF 0ENAT0R WlN1ER
UPON EXENrTING NAHCFAC-
TURES F8OA TAXATION.
House Bill No. S. being under cons;dera-
ton in the Committee of the Whole. Mr..
Winter said:
Mr.. Chairman: I shall oppose the passage
of this bill because believe it Is in contra
ven.ion of section of article II of the Con-
stitution Of the State of Kansas, which pro-
vides ''that the Legislature shall provide for
uniform and equal rate of assessment and
taxation; but all property used exclusively
for State, county, municipal, literary, edu.
cational, scientific. religious, benevolent and
charitable purposes, and personal property
to the amount of At least two hundred dol
lars for each family, shall be exempted from
taxation" The trainers of this constitution
wisely provided that all property shall be
assessed and taxed ON basis of equality;
not only 60, but superlatively wise pro-
vision is made in this section specifically
defining what property shall be exempt from
taxation; not foot of land nor . dollars
worth of personal property, beyond. what ID
here specified, can Se erempts BY the Legis-
la,ure from taxation. Will Senators do an

VINO GOT n.

The Caldwell Investigating Committee
have word to say in their report about that
5000 which it is said that the Doniphan
delegation got. They said it was left in Car
ney's room and the person for whom it was
intended went in and got it. The report
would have been still more interesting If the
committee had only named the person who
stole in, like thief in the night, and grab
bed the 81 600. Carney SAYS he didn't gel
1t, row vino did? We think We shall send
for Mast. We have a subject for him. Only
his genius can do justice to the man who, al
a convenient hour, with blapched cheek,
quivering liz, glittering eye and avari
cious heart, with stealthy step, entered Car
news room and took that s., 900. and thu
sold his manhood, his honor and his vote
and betrayed the trust of his constituents
Murder will out, 80 will the whole truth
about that s.. coo. 1t will come out some O
these days.-Troy Republican.
Gov. Carney has stated to parties, thai
while he cannot swear who did take the mo-
ney. yet i, was generally understood that il
was for Sol Miller, and that Miller did get it
No one need doub; longer about who go: The

| from tine Albany Evening journal
Three members of the Senate Committee
-Messrs. Logan, Anthony and Carpenter
dissent from the report in the case of Cald.
we'll, and will oppose anything more than
censure. They hold that the testimony does
not sutstan,iate the charge of bribery. L,
strikes Us that If there is anything 20 cen
sure, there il enough to expel. II nothing
has been proved, it is sufficient 10 justify the
severest action.
MIR Morton and the majority Of the COM
mit;ee whom he represents seem 10 hold this
view-at least TO the extent Of believing that
the retirement of Caldwell from the Senate IL
in some form demanded. Bat they get at
the expul ion in a roundabout way. They
propose to declare that the transactions
which have been proved invalidated the cleo.
ton, and thus that the seat il vacant. Ii the
position of the minority strikes Us "a falling
short OF the requirements of the csse, the
conclusion of the msjori;y will strike many
as novel and doubtful proposition. l, is
certainly new in its application 10 this coun-
try. But Mr.. Morton has sufficient strength
to give great weight to any position he takes,
and his proposition thus becomes one Of real
importance.
We should be heartily glad # this prin-
ciple could be established. Ii it could be
settled that the use OF money in Senatorial
contests, rs in Kansas. would invalidate the
election, it would 60 far to destroy this per-
nicious practice. Ii it we're understood that
the employment Of such means, though it
might secure the majority in the Legislature,
could not secure the seat in the Senate, the
temptation would be removed. The adop-
ton of such rule would have a most salu-
tary effect, and would 60 far TO arrest an
abuse which i, becoming alarming in ia ex-
tent Ii strikes at the root OF the difficulty,
and is calculated to prevent the wrong rather
than providing punishment for il after it
has been committed.
Bat meri.orious 10 the proposition seems
in its consequence, it ia question upon
which the lawyers will doubtless divide. In
the discussion We trust the kernel of the mat
ter-ihat Caldwell ought no longer to sit in
the Senate-will not be loAt. If his seat
cannot be declared vacant let him be expelled
The grand point should not be sacrificed in
a controversy over technicalities. We we'll
understand that grave questions Of law and
constitutional right are not to be settled in
any of hand I'D odptdndum etyle, and that
they deserve the careful consideration of the
besi men in the Senate. But, on the other
hand, let not eaeential Justice be frittered
in diluted discussions.

speculation, and, In company with an uned-
ucated, but adroir, team-contractor named
Leonard Smith, he shared in the profits of
the overland trade from Fort Leavenwor,h
to the Plains, being first book keeper, and
ultimately General Superintendent, of the
Overland Freighting Company. They are
40 given 10 SANDER in Kansas politics that
there is no reliance TO be placed rpon the
charge that he undid his employers by peep
ing at their proposals, nor that he claimed to
be cousin of Simon Cameron, nor that he
said Tom Scott would back him for the Sem
| ate to any amount. The business Of
freighting 10 the amount Of two
millions per annum gave Mr.
Caldwell ''claims" on the QuartermaSter's
Department, of course. Nobody ever worked
Tor Government who was not entitled to
''relief." Some years, subsequently, these
claims. and the decline OF Leavenworth real
estate, some experience which ne hsd in
getting possession of the Delaware dunn
ished reserve lands in 1866 (price SIS per
acre., and interests in a couple of railways,
started Caldwell upon the race for the Sem
ale. He proclaimed his intentions in the
autumn of 1870. In two months he "6xed''
the Legislature by taking the advice Of Len
Smith, going boldly into the market for
votes, and startling public impulsivenees in
Kansas BY stating that the pecuniary re-
sources 'behind him" were illimitable. The
average man out there is said to run for the
Legislature from his youth up, and it was
fashionable to cell ones vote, when success
full, in order to show q peaceful and accom-
modating mood, and keep real eatate steady.
