Retrcnchment versus revenue.

AINsWoRTH. Neb., Feb. IL, 190S.-To the
Editor of The Bee: We hear very much
these days about a new revenue bill, and one
OF its main objects seems to be to enable
the state to raise more revenue, with which
to pay off the states $4,000 900 indebted
ness, Illegally contracted. The state con-
stitution prohibits a state Indebtedness ex-
ceeding 500, 900.
Is 1t not strange that in connection with
all this discussion no one has suggested
a bill to stop the leaks and extravaganza
which make more taxes and revenue neces-
sary? Are the heads of departments and
state institutions to continue exhausting
their several appropriations and then run
the state in debt at their own sweet will
and furnish DEFICIENCIES for each succeeding
legislature7 II so, then 1t matters but
little to the taxpayers what kin Of a reve-
nue. bill is enacted, as 1t will have to be
revised again from time to time in order
to raise sufficient revenue to meet these
extravagant expenditures in excess of the
constitutional limitations.
A bill to correct the above abuses and
enforce afittle economy in state expendi-
lures would be OF far more interest to the
real taxpayers than the question whether
their property should be assessed at its
full cash value, or at one-third Of that
amount, and a little ginger In the mode
of collecting taxes, that all may be COM
PEELED to bear their just proportion of
public burdens, would be in keeping with
the best public sentiment. Those now pay
ing their taxes would suggest that in
drafting this new revenue bill 1t would be
we'll to keep in mind the vast amount of
outstanding, unsolicited taxes throughout
the state and that a revenue bill that will
collect taxes is much more desired than
one that will simply increase the burdens
OF those who already pay. And. above all,
let us have some limitation upon useless
and extravagant expenditures.
Nothing is so retaTding TO the growth and
settling up OF Nebraska. and especially
the northern and western part OF the state
as excessive and extortionate taxation. II
is not only retarding immigration, but is
actually causing parties now residing here
to invest their capital elsewhere, where
taxes are reasonable.
The people Of this part of the state are
a~nxiously awaiting some symptoms Of
economy from the present legislature
Here Is a field for some real statesman
who will also be a public benefactor.

GOOD CORN WEATHER
The Northwest Now hopeful of Good
Grain Crops.

Chicago, Aug. 26.-Reports from the
northwest tell of high winds and slight
rains, neither of which have affected
the crop condition to any appreciable
extent. The northwest weather con-
ditions will Command the same atten-
ton this week that they did last, and
they will be just as important in the
price making. Another week like last
will practically secure the spring wheat
and will tend to hasten the marketing
of it.
There was a very large shipping bus
mess in corn last week, and it went out
of Chicago faster than it came in. But
the price at the close of the week was
one cent to ia cents lower than it
started.
The weather was more like the typl-
cal corn sort than any so far this sea-
son. The crop reports were coni1lctlnS
as they have been all the season. Gen
orally those from the extreme west
were of improvement. Those who came
back from Nebraska told the story of
unexpected progress. The increased
offerings by the farmers from the west
were interpreted as indicative of the
greater confidence of the grower in his
crop. There is just now the popular
impression the season will be as alb
normal in it's ending as in its start and
will make a corn crop in spite or lts
lateneSS.

Sojourners at the Outlet We're given
an excellent entertainment last Tues
day evening, and the selections given by
strong gentlemanly voices was waited
by the gentle breezes all over the lake.
All those who were near, staid on the
vcrandas until taps were sounded and
the last selection was sung. Many
came in boats and drifted around the
cove, while the music rendered came
enchantingly to their ears. There were
twelve gentlemen in all and they COM
pose the Sayin Hill Camping Club of
Dorchester. At present they are in
possession of kilgore's cottage, the
"Wawenock" and they spend their eve
nings with vocal and instrumental
music. The club has some neX-
cellent talent in it, and those
who live near, expect their sweet
songs and happy laughter every
evening. On Tuesday evening it was
decided to have one big entertainment
and every member volunteered to do his
part. They have Il piano in the cot
tage so an accompanist was easily fur
nished. The first selections that came
floating over the water We're songs by
the Ellsworth Quartet, Messrs. Murphy
Feney, Ross and Lyons. These were
delightful and were spiced with hui
NOR. Then came a sweet cornet solo
by the artist Andrew Lehey, a piano
and piccolo duet by w. L. Lyons and
Mr.. Ross. After this Mr.. Kelehier
sang one of his best songs, which was
roundly applauded. To end the eve
ming rightly Morris Lehey, a speaker of
renoWn, gave a lecture on "Cobbossee-
contee and it's Beauties" He was en-
cored but refused to give them more
of his brilliant wit. After this Il
recitation" was served and a grand
display of fireworks was held ON the
slope in front of the cottage. These
were among the pleasing features of
the evening and were enjoyed by all
the people clear to Hammond's Grove.
The club is composed OF the following
| members: w. r. Lyons, ]. J. Murphy,

THns harked tendency toward

noted in comparison of the rates of
growth of north and south and of east
and west, is apparent also in the rates
of growth of city and country. The

1t is shown that the generalization

country are approximatlng, is no less
convincing when the line separating
CITY and country is drawn at these
higher limits of population; the rate of
growth of country districts, as thus de-

airy, while the rate of growth Of cities,
especially those of over 5000 inhabi-

When. attention is directed TO the

class forms of the total population it
| appears that the proportion living in
| places of at least 5000 inhabitants has
steadily risen, while the proportion
