THE AooTlNG OF Il RAILROAD.

Philadelphia Inquirer: The story of the
looting Of the Northern Pacific railroad by
it's former officials, as told in detail in the
newspapers, gives the first complete eX-
PLANTATION of how 1T came about that a con-
tinental line, which began the year 1890 in
splendid condition, with 81, 800, 1000 in cash in
it's treasury, representing the years profits
above its expenses. and with Sl3, 200, 000, the
proceeds of the consolidated mortgage, to
provide for improvements, has within the
short space of four years been completely
Quilted. The profits have been stolen, the
proceeds of the bonds have been stolen,
and today the treasury is empty and the
road, unable to meet its immediate obliga-
tions, is under the shelter of the courts.
The story is an amazing one, even in this
age of railroad plunderers, and it makes
pertinent the query: What is society going
to do to protect itself from the h~ighwaymen
OF the close of the nineteenth century,
Chicago Record: Startling charges are
made ina petition filed by the general coun-
sci of the Northern Pacific Railroad COM
pany against the management which secured
the appointment of the three> receivers.
The petition asks for the appointment of
other receivers to take the places of those
selected by the old management.
The declaration says that when the re-
ceivers were appointed the roads managers
had III less than a year saddled it with the
interest of $50, 900, 900 for properties which
were of no value to it, but in many of which
they were personally interested and out of
which they made large profits. 1t is also
asserted that the receivers appointed have
the effect Of perpetuating the same control
which brought about the bankruptcy, and
that they continue a similar line of policy.
The transactions are set forth in the petit
tion in detail, aud are not only remarkable
and startling in themselves because they
disclose the sharp practices of certain finau-
ciers, but because they reveal the methods
whereby one set of investor may be preyed
upon by another set.

TIE M1noR,S MESSAHE.

The annual message of Mayor Bemis
is n clear and comprehensive review OF
municipal management during the past
year. Necessarily the mayors message
embodies and recapitulates all the i'm
portant facts, figures and recommends
tions OF his subordinates in the various
departments. In that respect 1t is a
compendium of information relating to
the finances of tho city, its public works,
municipal and corporate, the health de-
partment and the fire and police depart
ments.
The mayor also devotes considerable
space to the problem of uniform assess
ment, special taxes and retrenchment.
Mayor Bemis ventures to make recon-
mendations looking toward the acquisi-
zion of the waterworks, the purchase or
establishment Of an electric lighting
plant, and calls attention to the failure
of contractors to comply with existing
ordinances and to carry out their obliga-
tions.
Incidentally Mayor Bemis repels the
aspersions sought to be cast upon him
from bench, pulpit and press as to his
course in dealing with gambling and the
social evil. On this point the mayor
takes a manly stand and gives candid
and frank expression to his views of the
most effective way Of minimizing the
evil that springs from gambling, public
and private.
The message certainly is instructive
and its recommendations cannot fail to
meet the approval of the taxpayers and
all citizens who desire equitable assess
ments, economic and honest disburse-
ments of the public funds and a strict
enforcement of contracts made by fran
chised corporations and city contractors.

PRESIDENT HJWELL,

The organization of the new council
was perfected last night to the general
surprise of politicians who expected q
deadlock and a long siege. Mr.. Edward
T.. Howell, the choice OF the council for
president, possesses the requisite quail
~fications for the important position to
which he has been elected. His career
in the last council has in the main
been highly c~reditable. So far as we
know he wears nobody's collar and is not
a creature or tool of contractors or cor
porations. From a pure party stand
point Mr.. Howell's selection would nat
urally be offensive to republicans. But
from the standpoint Of the taxpayer he
will be accepted as a safe man.
The position of president of the
Gil carries with it great responsibility,
and the functions devolving upon the
presiding officer of the council are for
the most part related to good govern
ment rather than politics. The first
test of President Howell's mettle will be
in the makeup of the council commit
tees. He is expected, of course, to give
the democratic members the lions share
of chairmanships, but partisanship
should be made secondary to the inter-
ests Of the city. The committees should
be so organized as to promote whole
some legislation and defeat jobs, steals
and fraudulent claims. In the makeup
of the committees no political caucus
should be allowed to dictate or exert a
preponderating influence. The solea aim
of the president should be efficiency and
honesty.
If Mr.. Howell is actuated by these mo-
tives he will merit public confidence and
receive the commentator Of all classes
regardless of party.

ST. JOSEPH, Jan, IA meeting of the rep
resentatives of the banks and clearing houses
by the Missouri valley is being held in this
city today. The session opened at The CONNER
cial club at IL 80 and at IL 80 an adjournment
was taken until $3.50. The object of
this meeting of the bankers of the Missouri
river cities is simplysto talk over matters of
interest TO themselves and to discuss ques-
tions appertaining TO the management of the
clearing houses. Before an adjournment

cation of Missouri river bankers and

from intermeddling with the South
American republics. This is the only
explanation Of MIR. Gladstone's addi-
tional remark that he was not advised
that his government had any right to
Interfere in Brazil. Great Britain has
othitherto stood upon any question ofits
right to interfere inthe affairs of foreign
governments which involved the inter-
ests OF British subjects unless its action
promised to rebound rather to its disad-
vantage than TO its advantage. The
prime minister's declaration, then, in
dicates the acceptance by Great Britain
of the genera" proposition that South
America is excluded from the field of
European politics.

THE WAY TO SUPPRESS GAMBLIN,

THE WAY TO SUPPRESS GAMBLING.
THE BEE has never been known to
crawfish or run away from u fight.
When it says anything it means just
what it says. And this is why it exerts
influence in city and state affairs. Its
position on the gambling question is not
a byplay in the interest of blackmailers
who want to hold up gamblers and the
position it occupies on this question
today is the position it has always occu-
pied. THE BEE does not masquerade
as n religious paper or as an organ of
moral reform. That role it leaves TO
the impostors and Pharisees who have
douned the livery OF heaven while serv-
ing Satan and his imps. All that these
Pharisees want in making this noise
about closing gambling houses is a visit
from the gamblers with a suitable
amount of hush money. AS soon as the
green goods are delivered they will
keep as still rs u mouse. AS far AS THE
BEE is concerned there will be no re-
treat and no hushing up.
We understand hat citizens who are
sincere in their desire to break up gam
bling demand that the judges of this
district shall call a special grand jury
to investigate gambling and othor law
lessness with a view to indicting parties
believed to DO guilty Of violating the
criminal statutes, We see no necessity
for such a move. The county attorney
has authority under the law to file
complaints against all parties for in
fractions Of the criminal code. There
should be no difficulty of obtaining sutii-
cient proof as regards gambling houses
to file an information and have the par
ties placed on trial. A grand jury is an
expensive luxury, The last special
grand jury cost this county over 81, 900.
Every dollar in the county treasury is
Omaha daily bee., 1894-01-04

BY reason of u sentiment worked up
largely by The BEE, state, city and
county treasurers are required to give a
sufficient bond TO protect the people from
loss through dishonest men. 1t is a ra-
tional presumption that any man good
enough TO secure election to one OF these
offices would also be strong enough to
procure a competent and sufficient bond.
For that reason the law provides that
ample indemnity must be given. 1t is a
good thing.

FEARLESS devotion to duty, such as
was displayed by Conductor Atwood in
his attempt to warn passengers of an in
evitable collision OF the Union Pacific
Tuesday and which resulted in his
death, deserves more recognition than
can be given in a mere newspaper ac-
count Of the wreck. So frequent COM
plants are made against the reckless
negligence of railway trainmeu that in
stances such as this, where %faithfulness
TO employers and u sense Of responsibility
for the passengers has been guarded
more jealousy than life, should not be
overlooked. Happily the negligent and
selfish railway employe is still in the
small minority among his fellows.

If we had MS much faith in the wisdom and

nave in the intelligence of the American
people, we would not hesitate to predict that
bill, as 1t may more correctly be called,
would not get out of the house alive. If 1T

they are talking about that it would be torn

THE city hall building has about the
same cubic contents as has the state
asylum for the insane at Lincoln. For
the first quarter of 1898 it cost 1904 to
heat the city hall, and for a like period
the state paid nearly 81, 400 for heating
the asylum building. Just why there
should be so great q difference in the
cost of heating these two buildings is
probably due to the fact that the city
buys coal at the lowest market price
while the State Board of Purchase and
Supplies sits down while pap leeches
and bloodsuckers loot the state. The
Lincoln asylum or any other building
no larger ought to be heated at an ex-
pense not greater han 81, 900 q quarter.
To approve and pay bills OF 81 400 for
that service is to countenance barefaced
robbery. The chances are that more
than halt the amount said to have been
expended for coal was diverted to other
purposes in direct violation of a most
important statute. This is a time-worn
practice. Some day state officials will
be punished for it.

GOVERNOR FLOWER of New York
recommends in his message to the legis-
lature that steps be taken to provide the
entire state revenue without resorting
to the apportioned property tax at all.
Pennsylvania has already practically
succeeded in accomplishing this reform
and if New York can do the same that
policy Will bid fair to become generally
adopted throughout the union. The
great obstacle in the path of such re-
form in the western states is hat their
constitutions in most instances require
the state treasury to be filed from the
proceeds of a tax 100 all property, real
and personal, which shall be equal and
uniform throughout the state. The
abolition of the general property tax in
the great number OF western states can
not be effected except by constitutional
amendment.
