THE st. Louis Republican calls at.
tention to the fact that the immense
advantage over other routes possessed
by the Mississippi river as a meanS by
which the products of this great val
ley can reach the markets of Egrope
has never been more clearly exhibited
than during the laet twenty-five
months. From the latter part Of Feb.
ruary, 1881, waea navigation to the
south opened from this port, TO the
present time, there have been only
eight days during which bos's could
not leave st. Louis loaded; and, from
present indications, 1t Is safe to cay
that no further interruption to nayiga-
ton is liable 10 occur until next win
ter. The route by the lakes and
canals, on the other hand, 10 closed
for fully three months each year, aud
during that time shippers are at the
mercy Of railroads.

THERE is violent indignation ex.
pressed In New York over the taking
of OF night trains on the elevated
railroads. The general manager of
the roads states that the order was
issued by Jay Gould and the local
papers age dragging the great mouop-
olisJ over the Goals Of a mereiless
critlcilm. Having cleared q cool ST.
600, 000 by his famous stock watering
operation In Manhattan. Gould now
proposes to make the public pay in-
teres. on the water and 10 curtailing
every expense to Increase profits. The
New York Times says that $50 long
as Jay Gould's railroad operations
were confined to comparatively dis-
tant fields, the people of New York
city knew very little of his methods.
In a general way he was regarded as a
species of brirand who EFFORTS prop,
erty from its lawful holders by trick
and strategem, rather than with
bludgeon and horse pistol. But when,

EXIT GOVERNOR NANCE.

Governor Nance has stepped down
aud out and his official shoes have
fallen to his Successor. OF his fare
we'll message the most that a be said
is that it will occupy th~irty-one
pamphlet pages of long primer type.
It's best portions are compiled from
the official reports and it's weakest are
those in which the ex.Boy Governor
attempts to make use of his own
ideas.
Dir. Nance's gratuitous insults
offered to the anti monopoly move
ment and the men who have
been fighting for years just
such tools of the corporations SIS him
self, are not al all surprising. During
his four years incumboncy of the gov
ernorship he played fast and loole
with his professions made before the
election, and in every Issue between
tho railroads and the people tool his
cue from the monopoly managers,
His administration called for little
executive ability. If it had it would
have called in vain. Mr.. Nance
secured his election on his shape and
complexion. A "boy governor" was
a curiosity four years ago. 1t
lost good deal of It's
interest after two years Of exhibition
and the people are not likely to dc.
msnd another specimen. 1t is time
that Nebraska should hunt for better
timber than bass wood for her gov.
ernors and learn to understand hat
the local celebrity OF a country law.
yer is not always the best guarantee
of a wise and efficient executive. II
MI. Nance acquires no more distinc.
ton as a Boy attorney than he has as
a Boy governor he will have to fall
back on his old friends tho railroad
managers for remunerative retainers
In order to keep up his end Of the log.

Congressmen make ,ery undesirable

quoted by the Washington correspon-
cent of the Philadelphia Times. "They
keep all sorts Of hours" she complains,
land want their breakfast and dinner
whenever they come in; they burn
more gas than anybody else, and re
quire more attendance from servants.
1t takes an extra servant to answer
the door bell for them, as for every
senator or member there are always at
least twenty persons coming every day
TO see them about something, and the
muddy boots of their constituents and

stop to use ~spittoons. One who can't

MoRE people have read The Sun during
the year just now passing thar aver before
since it was fret printed. No ether news
paper published on this side Of the earth
has been bought aud read in any year by
30 many men n women.
We are credib y informed that people
buy, read, and like THE Sun forthe follow
ing reasons, among Others:
Because its news columns present in at
t~ractiye form and with the greatest possible
a;cuIocy whatever hes interest for human
kind; the events, the deeds and misdeed e,
he wisdom, the phi osophy, the notable
folly, the solid Feuse. the imurovipg nom
sense-Rll the news ct the busiest world at
present revolving in space.
Because people have learned that in its
remarks concerning pc sons and affairs
1HE Sun makes a rracti-e Cf telling them
the exact truth to the best Of its ability
three hundred and sixty-ive DAYS in the
year, before election as we'll as after, about
the whales as well as about the small fish,
in the face of dissent as plainly and fear.
lessly as when supported by general ap-
prevail. The Sun has absolutely no pur-
poses to serve, save the information Of its
readers and the furtherapce Of the common
good.
because it is e~veryboiv's newspaper. No
man is 81 humble III vt The Sun is indifer-
emit to his Welt ire and his rights. Norman
is 80 rich that 1t can allow Injustice to be
done him. No man. no association of
men, is powerful enough to he exempt
from the strict application of its principles
Of right and wrong.
Because in politics it has fought for q
dozen Years, without intermission and
sometimes almost alone among newspapers,
the fight that has resulted in the recent
overwhelming popular verdict sg inst
Robesonism and for honest government.
No matter what party is in power, THE
SUN stands aud will continue to stand like
a rock for the interests Of the people against
the ambition of bosses, the encroachments
of monopolists, and the dishonest schemes
of public robbers.
All this is W hat we are told almost daily
by our friends. One man holds that THE
Sun is the best religious newspaper ever
published, because its Christianity is un.
diluted with cant. Another holds hat it
Is the best Republican newspaper printed,
because it has already whipped half of the
ras GALS cut OF that party, and is proceed.

gained possession of the elevated
railway system Of New York, we be.
gan to have a taste of his quality.
Precisely what game Gould has now
in hand it is impossible to tell. But
the elevated railway travel is to be
squeezed "f,r all it Ia worth"
at Is assumed by Gould and his
associates that the elevated roads,
with their valuable and inexoenaive
franchises, are to be run solely for the
benefit Of Gould and company. Hav-
ing taken possession of the streets and
avenues, and having gained without
cost the right to build iron railways,
they contemtuously deny that the p1b.
lie has any right which ths corporation
is bound to respect.
We muat lock to the legislature for
reli e. The monopolists who control
the elevated railroads assume the right
to run trains when and how they
please, with nothing but their own
selfish schemes to consider. Equity
requires that a f~ranchire, to be law
fully occupied, shall be administered
in the public interest. A railroad
must be maintained for the reasonable
accommodation Of the public. If Mr..
Gould thinks that the people of New
York have no rights which the mon.
opoly that has seized upon its streets
is bound to observe, the legislature of
the state may undeceive him.

In retiring from oflce, Ex-Governor
Nance took occasion to enter into q
lengthy and weak apology for the sins
of the state board of discrimination,
of which he was formerly head center
He says: RAILROAD property has
been listed for taxation by the various
companies under oath, as provided by
law, and every means within the
power of the board has been employed
to obtain a fair and just valuation of
the property 30 listed. In the judg-
ment of the board such property has
been assessed at q valuation corre-
ponding Wish that of other property
throughout the state. In fact, if a
comparison with assessments of rail-
road property, and of other property,
made In other states, may be taken as
a guide, it will be found that under
the present law the taxation of rail.
road property has been higher, com
psratively, in this state than In most
Others"
No one knows better than ex.Gov.
Nance that his whitewash of the board
of equalization Is a mass of mlsrepre.
sontations. Tho Iuenas ORC Of the rail.
roads under the present method assess
their property, which, as shown
by The BEE, Is listed at from one
twelfth to seventh of its market
value, while the property of private
citizens Is assessed on q basis of about
one.third. There has been no attempt
made by tho board Of equalization to
obey the mandate of tho constitution
TO assess the franchises of corpora
tions. Mr.. Nance says that no legis.
lation hes been passed looking
to that end. What legislation was
needed more than the revenue bill
defining the duties of the board of
equalization under the constitutional
provision. There was no lack of
power in the board to perform their
sworn duty2 But there war a lack of
inclination. The information avail
able regarding the actual value of the
corporations wasl in every respect suf-
ficient for the carrying out of the law.
Either the cost value, market value
or income valuation would have az
forded q reliable basis for a fair Assess.
ment. The statistics published by
THE BEE have shown conclusive.
ly that none of these methods OF
determining the value of corporate
property was adopted, and that the
statements Of the railroads ia every
instance determined the action Of the
board. The demand of the people OF
Nebraska for the abolition of the
state beard of discrimination Is due to
the fact that they know that the eva
sion of taxes by the corporations has
been assisted by the operation of the
law In the hands of the board OF equal.
i~zation, and the attempt of Mr.. Nance
to pull the wool over the eyes of the
legislature will not be successful.

RAILROAD transportation Is always
given for a consideration. This is the
decision Of the supreme court of Penn
s~ylvania which holds that when q
railroad company permits q passenger
to travel without paylngfare itdoes not
avoid its responsibility as common
carrier by giving the passenger a prin-
ted pass condition that the person oc-
oupying It assumes all risk of accident
without claim on the corporation.
This decision is in harmony with
many other similar decisions
