FEES OF COUNTY OFFICERS.

OF the amount of unsolicited fees

find that Mr.. Tyrrel! has succeeded in
collecting as follows:
From those during the term of VIM.
Il. Doane, S29.35, leaving a balance
Of one hundred. ninety-three dollars
and twenty-five cents still unsolicited.
From those during the term Of Mr..
Aube, 1898. 40, leaving a balance Of
sixty dollars and ter cents.
From the foregoing it will be seen
that there is O due the county $253.-
IS, most of which is of long standing,
and in all probability will remain un-
collected it action is not taken to en-
force payment. which action we rec
ommend be commenced at once.

duty without the payment OF the fees

should not be allowed to continue.

MAY PRODUCE REACTION.

The order Of the New York Board of
Health declaring consumption an infec-
tious and communicable disease and pro-
vidlng for listing all persons suffering
from it who live within the boards juris-
diction, is provoking lively discussion
throughout the country. and the board is
not getting much sympathy. Specimen
comments are found in the Medical Record
and the Hartford Courant. The former
declares the action of the board to be
extensively dictatcrial and defantly COM
pulsory. and the Courant thinks it is
time TO call a halt
Correct. Boards of Health are good
things within certain limits. They have
accomplished a vast deal in the direction
Of preventing the spread of epidemics,
teaching the people the advantages OF
hygiene and sanitation. and stamping out
disease. For this they cannot be too
highly commended. Indeed, in this light
their work cannot be overestimated. But
there is q growing disposition on the part
of such bodies in some parts of the coun-
try to grasp at police power and secure
a right of invasion of the home, which, II
not checked, will bring about a reaction
a reaction that will cause legislatures to
take away from the boards such powers
as it is desirable they should have. The
communicability Of consumption is dis
tinctly not proved; but even should the
contention of those who hold TO the con-
trarv be established we do not believe
that an enlightened and sympathetic pub
lie will justify the action of the New
York board. In very many cases Of con-
sumption the application of the New
York order would be simply inhuman, and
would hasten death. And not because it
would directly stimulate the ravages OF
the disease, but because of a depressing
effect upon the spirits of the patients that
would initiate against their keeping up
that heroic fight for life so common with
cOnsumptiveS.

way of reducing our annual deficit but by
reducing expenditures. How 10 reduce

lem. But at must be solved. There Is

And he went on as follows:

OF all who receive compensation from

striking from the list OF the city's present
burdens those for which she is not
legally liable. and so reduce the remain
ing expenditures as 10 bring them safeiy

solufe necessity for this course / need not
further speak Nor need / pause 10
demonstrate 10 this audience OF business
men the beneficial influences of such re-
suits upon the whole community.
From the statement that Mr.. Munford
made. It seems that we are paying
very high rate OF interest upon our bonds.
But we agree with him that If we can
abandon our bond-issuing habit we shall
hereafter be able TO meet our maturing
bonds by the sale OF 3 1-2 per cent bonds.
Thus we could ease our burden very
largely.
Mr.. Munford thinks than Of the eity's
property only the water-works, gas
works markets. and Seabrooke ware
house "can be fairly termed assets" In
this he is certainly right We could not
sell our streets, nor our parks. nor our
schools, nor our jail-not unless we meant
TO close our existence as city.
Messrs. Anderson. Powers, and Mum
ford are thoughtful, conservative, and
publc-spirited men, who have large in
terests here. It is evident that they gave
careful thought to the subjects that they
discussed. and we urge all Of our people
who were not present when the speeches
were made to read them as they appear
in yesterdays Dispatch. We have here
mentioned but one of the many subjects
discussed Other subjects referred speci-
fically to the great question OF de-
veloping our city's prosperity and were
dealt with in manner that promises ex-
cellent results.

ARCH FOR HOSE.

The Phladelphians have solved the
problem of continuing street-car travel
while their car-tracks are crossed by
fire-engine hose. They have wagons ar
ranged with framework upon them and
two of these wagons are put together
end to end-so as to form an arch. over
this arch the hose are run and beneath
it the street-cars pass. The arrange
ment seems to be simple and efficacious
one Why cannot we have some such
system here? Why should we submit to
having our street-cars stop running
whenever the exigencies of fire require
that hose should be stretched across the
street-car tracks? Why can't we elevate
the hose as they do in Philadelphia and
let the cars run under them?
We do not contend that the Philadel
phia system is the best. but that it will
do, we feel sure, and we should like TO
see our City Council pass an ordinance
compelling our street-car companies 10
adopt a system as good.

legislative committee in conjunction
with the Nebraska State Board of Trans
portation has been engaged for seve-
raj days in collecting figures showing
the number of farmers of the State who
are now burning corn for fuel. We learn
from the New York Times that the sec
retaries are also making an estimate Of
the quantity Of coal which these corn
burners would use If they could get it
in exchange for corn. These figures are
TO be used in an effort TO get a reduced
rate for out-shIpments of corn and in
shipments of coal from the railroads.
The secretaries think that they can show
to the railroads that 1t will pay them to
reduce the rates.
Freight Traffic- Manager Munroe. of the
Union Pacific. said that the farmers were
burning corn i'm districts where coal was
the cheaper, and this made a difficult
problem for the railroads TO solve. The
fact that there is no market for corn
accounts largely. he said, for their failure
TO ship, and many Of those who are
burning corn live long way from the
road, and 1t hardly pays them TO haul
their corn 10 the railroad and ship II.
