A New York journal publishes a list of
5000 of the wellthiest inhabitants OF that
city. 1t is shown that the men who are
supposed to be the wealthiest III the United
States are only moderate taxpayers or
realty. and pay even less on their personal
assessments. Mi. William II. Vanderbilt,
who is credited with Il fortune OF S2OO,O GOO,
0G0, pays on realty alone only $48,5oO.
He is stated to possess at least S $1,000, 600
in personal property and S3l 600, 900 in
Government bonds. His son w. X. Van
dprbilt, pays $7,S75; Cornelius, 81 800;

$G9.675, against the aggregate payment
by The three ASiOrs Of over $500, 000. Mr..
JAY Gould, whose residence at Fifth-ave-
nue. and Forty-Seventh-street appears quite
poor in comparison with the palaces occu-
pied by the VanderblltS, pays a tax on
real estate amounting to $21,50o, nearly
half as much as William a.. Van
derbilt contributes, and a third of the en-
tire tax contributed by the four Wander.
bits. Among the heaviest ~ratepayers in
the city are three ladies', and the aggregate
wtlth on which they pay is far i'll excess
of many b0astpd millionaires. Miss Hen
rietta LrnnoX pays on a personal valua-
ton Of $1,000, 600, and is presumed to be
worth I 1900, 900 at least. Miss Cathrine
Wolf is said to be worth $4,000, 900, and
enjoys the reputation Of being the richest
maiden lady in the United States. Mrs.

LITTER FROM OMAHA.

EDITOR KADvANCE:-Perhap some Of
your readers would like to hear some
thing about Omaha. There is cOnsid-
erable of good to be said about the
place as well rs bad. but first let Is
look on the bright side of things and
afterwards at bad qualities. There are
plenty of churches for thuse who want
to 60. Lots of newspapers. The town
is growing very rapidly. and the sur.
roundlngs Of the place make some very
good scenery. The farmers, as far rs
we can learn, have all Of their small
grain stacked and some of them have
threslled. New oats are appearing in
town very rapidly. Crops, we hear,
will yield largely, but this has been
goodyear for them. just rain enough.
But the farming qualities of Nebraska
cannot begin to compare with Mobiles
county. About from one foot to eigh-
teen inches is the depth of the black
soil, while it washes very easily. We
have seen ditch washed out eighteen
inches deep IN less than twenty minutes
from rain. The country Is very rolling
and sandy subsoil. Wild bay is worth
from So to $l2 per ton. Tame hay can.
not be had. I do not know why. I
have not teen out of town since I came
to the place. but have got all Of my
news from farmers.
Now, about the business qualities:
There are lots of enterprises here. First
the U. p. Shops cover about five acres
of ground, are busy all the time but do
no outside work. Next comes the On.
aha Iron works. They coyer about
three acres. They are doing rushing
business. running about 80 men. The
Nail works, and others we h: We not
time to mention, are doing u large
business.
Our streets are being paved with
asphalt and some OF them are being
paved with square granite from Sioux
Falls. Railroads are being built and
everything is booming. Vacant lots
sci: from 81 200 up to $4,000.
| But let us look at the other side;
The saloon keepers have no respect fol
the Sabbath. Horse racing is going or
all day, shops running, base ball and
all kinds OF sport do not stop for sun
day. Gambling hells come out boldly
and do not fear the law. Houses OF
prostitution are numelo Gus. Beer gar
dens running full blast all the week
and Sundays, and, taking it all in all,
the town deserves its name, that of a
hard place. But one rust not suppose
for a minute that they must 60 to all OF
these places to find out. That is not
necessary. Here it can be seen from the
outside. But l have already said
enough. Will write more some other
time. nEMOH.

pROYIHTTiOy AVID 4ROLIyIOy

Bro. Jameson. Of the Piprst"ne Re-
public, is one Of those singular Liberals,
like Elnina Slpnker. who sees nothing
inconsistent in being n Liberal and =
Prohibitionist. He says: ''Pr"hibition
is no more a contradiction Of personal
liberty than was abolition"
Let US see. Abolition was to give
''personal liberty" to millions of slaves
It was essentially and in every possible
aspect u movement to give men liberty.
Prohibition is movement to deprive
men of liberty. 1t not only aims to
deprive the inebriate of the liberty to
drink intoxicants but it aims to de-
prive every other man Of the liberty to
drink any alcoholic beverage. Aboli-
tion represents liberty. Prohibition
represents uon-liberty. The two are
Numerically opposed. This, we claim.
Is why the church and clergy were
anti. abolition until the cause was made
by liberals. The church has always
been opposed to liberty except 80 far as
granted by ecclesiastical authority
This, we believe, is the chief reason
why the church element have embraced
prohibition to such an extent, viz: be-
cause prohibition is q movement to
deprive men of liberty, or to control
them in the matter of eating and drink
ing. The position of the church has
always been this: 1--WE must control
the minds and the conduct of men.
Our view Of God, of morality and "f
human welfare must be enforced. To
that end we invoke the aid of tie State.
We are not content to preach and
teach, we invoke force"
Prohibition as a moral movement is
legitimate and right for those who de-
sire it. Prohibition rs \ force exerted
by the State is illegitimate and an
outrage.
