QUEER ODDS AND ENDS IN
THE NEWSPAPER FILES

NEW YORK, June 6.-Rev. E. 7.
Jackson, pastor of the Mount Olivet
Baptist Church of Plainfield, n. J., has
dropped twenty-seven members of his
congregation because they insist on
dancing Among those suspended are a
trustee and several persons who have
been prominent in all the work of the
church. Two weeks ago the minister
preached a sermon against dancing and
asked the members of the congregation
to pledge themselves not to dance. The
twenty-seven members under suspen-
sion took the pledge. but, according to
the pastor, soon violated it.
Jackson said today: Before I will
have dancing in the church will fol-
low the example of Paul and make
tents. Tomorrow evening will preach
on the subject. taking for my theme,

Several times in this state when it
has been pretended that there was a
great contest between candidates for
nomination in republican state con-
vention, and ballot after ballot was
taken amid much hurrahing and
shouting. the moment the nomination
was made, thousands of buttons were
distributed through the hall with the
candidates picture and the Office for

them which had all been prepared and
were on hand before the convention
met. That would seem to be proof
positive that the corporations had

In the early nineties the populists of
Jefferson, in triangular contest, were
a good second in the race. Later by
cooperation with the democrats, part
of the county officers were captured.
Dissatisfaction because of mistakes
made by fusion state officials, and,
perhaps, some growing out of the To-
cal campaigns. which were made on
the every fellow for himself and the
devil take the hindmost" plan, caused
the pOpulists to sulk in their tents, SO
that the county now goes republican
by some 500 majority.
Jefferson is good example of a
county hard hit by the extravaganza of
the last legislature and the servility of
Baldwin's board to railroad domina-
ton. This year the assessors found
$168,481.90 more assessable property
in the hands of farmers and business
men than was found last year. But
the republican state board cut off

This year. at 91-2 mills, the state
levy is $25,509.03, divided as follows:
Railroads ...................$ 5,534.s3
OtherS ................. lJ,5I4.lU
Thus others mnstpa an increase Of

the hardest years that Nebraska has
ever known. The republican state gov
ernment in these years of prosperity
has paid off no bonded debts and has
increased the floating debt. That is
what the people of Nebraska got by
going back to republican rule. Be-
cause some voters STAYED at home and

in 1891 over Judge Post, whose term
on the supreme bench certainly made
him stronger candidate than Judge
Barnes. So if Barnes carries the coun-
ty hv any considerable figure, 1t can

Dawson County

This is a typical county, where q
good many populists became possessed
Of the idea last year that there was
nothing to vote for in this campaign
no issue worth going to the polls
for" The railroads were then paying
29.3 per cent of the taxes in Dawson
county and it may be that other tax
payers there felt that any effort to
bring about equitable taxation, might
result in hurting them, even If 1t
should benefit many other portions OF
the state. At any rate good many
7opulists stayed at home and shucked
corn election day-and this year they
must help pay $4,000 of additional
state taxes for allowing John n. Bald
wins board make the railroad assess
ment
Dawson county assessors this year
added $183,091.88 to the assessed valu-
alton of farmers and business mems
property. Baldwin's state board add
ed $4,499.22 to railroad valuations
about the ratio of 81 to $40.
The 1902 levy of state taxes was at
3-8 mills, amounting to $l2,64S.6S,
divided as follows:
Railroads ................... 20, Io.ol u
others ........a......... o,9oo.oA
The levy this year at 9 IL mills foots
III $18,075.27, divided thus:
Railroads 4'o1o.oa u
Others 13,249.66
Thus the extravaganza OF the rail-
road-dominated legislature of 1903
necessitated heavy increase of taxes.
Dawson county farmers must pay 48.3
per cent more state taxes than last
year; but John N. Baldwin's railroad
gets of with an increase Of 29.9 per
cent. Hence, where last year the Daw-
son county farmer paid SO in state
tax. this year he must pay $14.83; but
the railroads $40 tax in 1902 grows to
only $12.99 this year-an advantage OF
$1.84 over the farmer, or l2.4 per
cent. So for ever hundred dollars
the farmer pays this year, $500 goes to
pay what the railroads should bear.
This means abou' SITS in the county
absolutely clear gain to the railroads
and clear loss to the farmers and bus
mess men. But that is on state taxes
alone. The local taxes have similar
inequity and much more heavy.
When the new revenue law gets in
operation we may safely expect even
greater inequalities next year. Do the
populists of Dawson county wish tc
have this law interpreted or construed
by railroad ATTORNEYS on the district
and supreme bench? If not, they bet:
ter get busy hustling for Judge HAND
and Judge Sullivan.

PENNYPACKER READS PAPERS,

Governor Pennypacker of Pennsyi-
vania at least reads few CT the pap
ers he is so DESTROYS Of muzzling. The
other day he wrote a remarkable let
ter to the editor of the PHILADELPHIA
Ledger in which he thanked that pap
er for preventing him from violating
the constitution of the State in the
matter of some appointments. This is
not the first instance on record, by
any means where newspaper has
kept a public officer from making
fool of himself. but politicians rarely
recognize the obligation.
In his letter the governor says: "The
appointments to which you refer will
not be made, and they probably would
have been if my attention had not
been attracted by your EDITORIAL That
seems frank and manly enough, but
the governor could not refrain from
spelling it all by the addition Of this:
1T is one of the few occasions
have found q newspaper to be of real
service in the conduct of public af-
fairs"
That ungracious sentence might just
as we'll have been left out It puts the
Pennypacher letter about on par
with such an utterance as this from a
man who has inst accepted a dOnat-
ion: Il don't like you and | don't
like your money, but | am going to

Judgement of the obligation from 9
