rbe R,eappraisement.

In another column is shown a tabu-
latlon of the ten years reappraisement
of real estate for the six city districts
Of the county. Compared with the as
sessments for the year 1893. there are
heavy increases in the taxed valuation
of property throughout the city, the
aggregate increases for the entire city,
excluding Ritchie district, being $4,000
on buildings, and S2,51s.s5O on buildings
and lots. While this means a largely
increased revenue for the county, the
reappraisement Will doubtless meet
with vigorous objections from interest
cd citizens. Those who feel that too
high valuations have been placed on
their property have redress before the
county board Of commissioners, which
acts as a board OF equalization and APP
peals, and has power either to reduce
or increase the new appraisement.

sanntor neYeridee,s speech.

Senator Beverldge's speech in the
senate yesterday on the situation In the
Philippines was strong argument in
behalf Of the administrators policy
with regard to the newly acquired
Pacific archipelago. Senator Beverldge
spoke with some advantage over others
who have discussed the Philippines,
from the fact that he knew precisely
what he was talking about, having
spent quite time on the island In per-
sonaI investigation. For this reason,
in an material matters, his words are
authoritative.
In regard to our constitutional right
to hold and govern the Philippines the
senator's arguments are well hedged
with the doctrine OF implied powers by
which alone the constitution lives.
e.nator Beverage fortified his position
with lmpregnable logic when he de-
ciared: There Is no power expressed in
the constitution to make internal Inn
provements: and. although 1t was a
subject painfully before the trainers Of
the constitution who yet remained
silent upon It, Congress said it is Inn
piled. There is no power expressed in
the constitution. but almost the reverse
10 make anything but gold and silver
legal tender for payment Of debts; the
supreme court declared 1t is Implied.
There is no power expressed in the con-
stitution TO maintain order In q state
with the nations soldiers unless the
state first calls for aid; Washington
Lincoln aud Cleveland said 1t is implied.
The legislative, the executive aud the
judicial departments of our government
have recognized and confirmed the ooc-
trine of implied powers by which aione
the constitution lives, the people make
progress and the republic marches fOr-
ward to It's imperial destiny. THE

We do not see how the Democratic
party, that is those members Of that
party who are determined to nominate
Bryan and re-afIlrm the Chicago plat
form, are going toget together on theex-
pansIon issue. 1t Is well known that
many OF the prominent leaders In the
south are radically opposed to Bryan's
policy, and are warm advocates OF the
administration management Of Phil
ippine affaIrs. They are likewise against
Bryan's free silver theories. Now
comes the vice-chalrman OF the Demo-
cratic national committee, Ex-Governor
Stone, OF Missouri, who mikes matters
up worse than ever While he declares
with emphasis that he has not changed
his views with reference to Bryan being
the nominee of the party, and does not
believe silver will be side-tracked, he
virtually hits the "fOreEone conclusion
nominee" blow between the eyes by
advocating expansion. Mr.. Stone says;
~ thoroughly approved OF the ac-
quirement Of Puerto Rico by this coun-
try. and regret that Cuba does not sus-
; tain the same relations toward us. An
1t is. however, we stand pledged to see
that Cuba enjoys independence, and we
shall have to live up to our word.
"Regarding the Philippines, would
like to see them given autonomy with
an American protectorate, and think an
amicablc arrangement could have been
repchcd in this direction without any
war II a little patience and diplomacy
had been used. AS 1t is now, THERE
IS NOTHING TO DO BUT SECURE
UNouEsTIoNED RECOGNITION OF
THE AMERICAN FLAG. When that
has been done IT will be time to discuss
what course this country should pur-
sue"
We do not know how this will strike
Mr. Bryan, but there Is no DOUBT but
what the discerning public Will discover

the inconsistency Meanwhile Bryan is
g0lnE around TIE country heraided as
the bitter Toe OF what Is called 'im-
perialism."
But there e. more trouble. Editor
McconAs, Of the Weekly Democratic
Magazine comes out In another sign
ed article ipthat campaign publication,
explaining why Bryan is 4 dead duck
and should NOT be re-nomlnated. This
win be gan and bitterness to the Ne
braskan. The article argues that Mr..
Bryan stands ona one-plank platform
-silver-and that his issue is a dead
issue. The action Of Democrats in
many states Is cited to prove this.
Maryland, where Bryanism and the
Chicago platform we're eliminated last
fall, Is referred to as q conspicuous exc
ample. Il q taken for granted that
trusts, Imperialism and 30 on win be
the Issues this year. and that Mr. Bry-
an, without his old one-plank platform.
is weaker than another would be, be-
cause he has been once defeated.

The Chicago Tribune, which has be-
come an expert on lynchIng, furnishes
figures OF this "hablt," which is con-
fined almost exclusively to one section
Of the country, which are somewhat
encouraging. The table given shows
tho number Of lynchlngs from 1885 to
1899 The largest number Of illegal eSe-
cutions occurred in 1892. when 255 per-
SONS suffered death from mob violence
1893 was next, with 200; 1891, third with
1872: 1894 fourth, 1870. During last year
the smallest number was recorded. 1O7.
This decline is somewhat encouraging,
The table OF the Tribune shows that the
crime is quite distInctlvely southern
one, only four OF the executions &C.
curing In the north. three OF which
were In Kansas.
A growing propensity Is the lynchlng
Of white men, as is proved by the fact
that OF the victims OF 1899 the negroes
numbered "A and the whites %. An in
creasing willingness TO lynch for crimes
other than those against women is also
apparent. Last years record shows
the following causes for lynching: Muir
der, A; completely in murder, Ii; rape
II; alleged rape. s; bad reputation, 8;
arson, 6; rnce prejudice. s; robbery, q;
unknown oftenses, 4, aiding criminals
to escape, 3; suspected arson, 1; In
tiammatory language, 1; rape and muir
der, 1; no otensC alleged, /; mistaken
Identity, /; highway robbery, l; arson
and murder. /.
"The most dlscouraging fact about
lynchlngs," argues the Philadelphia
Press. lis the drift toward inhictinE
the most barbarous puhishment on the
hapless victim. Al least two men were
burned alive in 1893. The strong pub
tic sentiment this hnA aroused may
check the growing propensity In this
way and prevent any further disgracFs
of the kind. on the whole the lynchlnE
situation while depiOrabie Is not devoid
of hope"
