The bill which passed both Houses
taKae' it Ka'' away yoft from the Judges of the
Court of Appeals the naming of
their Reporter and to vest the ap-
pointment in the Governor was in
many respects "strange varmint. 1"
It's most remarkable characteristic
to us, however, was the unanimity
with which it was supported by the
Republican Senators. 1t seems that
MIR. StOckett, Court of Appeals re-
porter, refused to contribute to last
falls Democratic campaign fund
aud assigned as one of his reasons
that he was not pleased with the
Anne Arundel local Democratic
ticket and would not vote for part
" it. 1t was determined to punish
him. Ten Democratic Senators
were found willing, but it takes
fourteen votes to pass q measure
through the Senate. The four Re-
pablican Senators, uniting with the
ten Democrats passed a measure,
the ayowed intention of which was,
to punish Mr.. Stockett for refusing
20 contribute to the Democratic
campaign fund and for voting part
OF the Republican ticket. Our
Curiosity to know why they did it
led us last Tuesday to ask Senator
Wilkinson his reasons for so voting!
The Senator very courteously gave
explanations of his colleagues votes
aud of his own also. OF his vote,
Mr.. Wilkinson said: "I voted to
return favors done me by Senator
Moss. of Anne Arundel county, and
ont of kindness of heart and with
out malice towards anyone, and
because / had heard that If the bill
passed MIR. +. Eugene Wathen, an
exist. Mary's cOuntian had q good
show to get the appointment and
also because Mr.. Stockett had held
the office for many years and I
believe in rotation in office"

Cleveland made q record as q
great vetoist and has found not q
few would be imitators. Among
the latest is His Excellency, Frank
Brown, Governor of Maryland.
The ex-President was and 10 re-
markable for his good judgment
and seldom if ever got on the wrong
side of question. We are indebt-
ed to Lord Macaulay for a pretty
Eastern tale which illustrates q
point we wish to bring out in this
connection: Once q man saw a
magician wave his wand and heard
him give orders to the spirits who
arose ut the summons. He accord
ngly stale the war.d, and waved it
Saint Mary's beacon., 1892-04-14

himself In the air; but be had not
observed that the magician used the
left hand for the purpose. The
spirits thus irregularIy summoned
tore him to pieces, instead Of obey
ing his orders. There are very few
who can safely venture to conjure
with the wand Of Grover Cleveland,
and Gov. Frank Browns veto of the
Assessment Bill makes as certain
that his Excellency is not one Of
them. The Assessment Bill passed
by our recent Legislature was, of
course, not perfect, but it was q
long stride in the direction of an
adjustment Of taxation, whereby
capital would have been made to
bear q juster proportion Of the bur-
dens Of government. At present
the land owners are weighted down
by the tax burden laid upon them.
Private securities and personality
get oil the books but the hills and
the valleys are everlastingly there,
and though in most instances great
ly deprecated since 1875, under the
law there can be no abatement in
their valuation. For these, among
other reasons, the farming interests
greatly desired a new assessment
and, for once, bill was passed that
was favorable to them. Then the
capitalists besieged the Governor
and besought him to withhold his
signature. They carried their point
and the farmers have the conscious
ness of knowing that the hand that
denied them needed relief was of
him who but a few short months
ago posed as the ''farmer candi-
date" The Governor may be right,
or If wrong, the error may have
been "of the head not of the heart, "
but unfortunately the sovereign
people never excuse what they think
mistakes. 1t was largely due to the
farmer vote that Gov. Brown re-
ceived his last falls phenomenal
majority. In the light of recent
developments we are led to believe
that il ever the people of Maryland
have again topass upon Gov. Brown
he viii meet with a fate like to the
little Virginia negro, Jim, who
dreamed that he saw Jacobs ladder
and heard q voice from Heaven
commanding him to climb. "He
clim and he clim and he clim, u
and at last reached the topmost
rangE Then a voice from the crys.
tai gates said, tclimb ont" and Jim
answered, "Good Lord, can't
climb no mo" Then a voice rang
out, "Jump Jim, Jump" and he
jumped; and Jim got the damndest
fall since the fall of Adam"

OMAHA, NEB.,
March 81, 1892.

Dear Beacon Permit me once
more to use the columns of your
valuable paper for the purpose OF
answering a communication from
~" in your issue of the cath inst.
The article insinuates that Nebras-
ka must be nearer the center of the
liquor traffic than st. Mary's, bas-
ing that assumption on certain
statements made by me. l said
that few years ago it was a COM
mon thug for men to put little
value upon human life that we
were accustomed to hear the re-
mark, a man died with his boots
on, signifying that another victim
had been added to the long list of
lawlessness which prevailed in the
"wild west" Omaha with pop
ulation of one hundred and forty
thousand, does seen 10 exact an
enormous tax (slS0, ,O00) from $50
saloons. Ten years ago with a
population Of thirty thousand &c.,
OO0) we had 346 saloons, at which
:ime there was very little restric-
tion thrown around the liquor traf-
fic. The gilded palaces of sin, sur
rounded by their satellites, the gam
bling hall and dance house were in
full blast. Was it any wonder that
thousands were educated to be to-
pers? Is it strange that within the
period of a year, more than a mil
lion dollars, the reward of labor,
finds it way into the hands of the
rum seller for disbursement p
Within q few years we have been
compelled to realize that unrelia-
BILE men occupied responsible posi-
tions on the railroad, behind the
counter and at the desk, endanger-
ing both life and property; the re-
suit being q determination to put a
high license and other restrictions
on the liquor traffic and use a part
OF the i'll gotten gains for the pur-
pose of education. 1t is unusual
to see men of education and refine
ment mingling with the seedy
throng who hover like flock of
buzzards around the grog shop /;
within may be found the politegen-
tleman behind the bar, who is no
ted to be the most attentive listen
er and influential man in America.
