sions of Opinions.

When they heard Of the indefinite
postponement Of II. r. No. $50 menu
'bers of the tax committee of the Real Es-
tate exchange, with members Of the COM
mittee OF ten, were holding a session ut
Balduh's for the purpose Of arranging
for a number Of men to visit Lincoln in
behalf Of the bill, which they were undcr
the impression would come up later. When
told Of the fate Of the bill they OK
pressed themselves, as a body, as hoping
that by the time the bill has received con-
sideration in the senate the members Of
the house majority will have changed their
minds upon the subject and be willing to
pass the measure. Individual expressions
were as follows:
Robert smitn-we will profit by cur ex-
perience and two years hence the house
will vote differently. In my opinion no
man who voted for indefinite p-ostponement
OF the bill will ever go to the legislature
again, after the people have had time to
realize what 1t means.
w. G.. Ure-The indefinite postponement
OF the bill will perpetuate an injustice now
being experienced by every city and town
in the state.
+. d. Wead-It gives us n chance to SEQ
what kind OF people we have to deal with
and an opportunity to plan for the future.
Thinks Roads Have Overreached.
]. n. Frenzer-I believe the railroads
have hurt themselves, as 1t will show the
people the fact that the RAILROADS run the
state, and the further fact that we are
al paying too high freight rates. In he
end it will be disastrous for the railroads.
G. Z. Turkington-I do not see how any
person who went to the legislature un-
biased could oppose the bill, and the fact
that they did oppose 1t would be a strong
indication that they we're not unbiased, to
say the least.
II. F. Wyman-The next legislature will
be elected on a platform pledged to tax
reform, regardless Of party affiliations.
S. A. Broadwell-I wish the Legislature
had voted upon the merits of the bill, 50 'Se
would have known something. This tax
agitation, by disturbing values, hurts the
town. We should have the matter set
tied one way or the other positively, and
would like to see the legislature show
backbone enough to vote upon the main
question.

later. A question is never settled until

1t is settled right.
City Attorney Connell-The result is I'M
fortunate from the standpoint of the city's
necessity and just and equal taxation. /
think it is certain that no relief will be
obtained during the present session of the
legislature. but the controversy, like the
ghost of Banquo, will not down. 1t means
an absolutely live issue two years hence.
Omaha daily bee., 1903-03-04
Mayor says "Outrage."

Mayor Moores-The action Of the house
is an outrage, but 1t shows how completely
the legislature is controlled by the rail-
roads. Everything possible ought to be
done to resurrect the bill and have 1t
passed, although 1 think II is a very diff
cult undertaking..
City Treasurer Hennings-House Roll $50
should have been passed by all means, but
IL 1T cannot pass surely the necessity for
passing the "scavenger" bill becomes
greater-this in order that the city may
maintain it's government through the year
on the present levy. i have been one of
the most consistent supporters OF House
Roll $50, but feel that 1t cannot be forced
through the legislature.
w. T. Graham-It is evident that the leg
i~slature is either playing into the hands of
the railroads or have little regard for the
interests Of their constituents. That is
my first impression. l would say that
we will now have to fight the matter out
In the courts and II defeated there keep
up such an agitation that we will get all
we are entitled TO two years from now,
when the railroads have played out their
pennywise pound foolish policy, for as the
GOOD book says. their latter end will be
worse than their first.
Mcintosh Says "NOthins New"
James H. McIntosh-This simply shows
that the railroads control the present leg
~islature. That's nothing new; we knew
1t all the time. From the first l never ex-
pected a different result. But we'll make
this thing an issue and will succeed yet.
/ am confident of that. But IL will not be
this time. This matter closes that partic-
ular incident. but there is still the general
revenue bill to come up. That provides
for taking the tax OFF the railroads and
taxing the farmers some more. l look to
see 1t pass.
T. J, Mshoney-This is no great shock to
me. 1t shows all too plainly what powers
are welding the master hand in the legisla-
ture this session. The body is not even
sufficiently interested in the matter OF
equitable taxation to examine into the JUS
tice of our position. But there are other
sessions to come.
Not settled Right.
Tax Commissioner Fleming-I don't be-
lieve the action by the house settles the
question. There is a long fight in prospect
that will be well maintained. Because the
bill has been killed is no reason to believe
that the fight has been given up. 1t is the
future that we are looking at and am
convinced the people will win, sooner OF

bors In this ancient town, and have
also to inform you that you travel
hence to Carlisle, through Border coun-
ty, much and often infested by the
Scots. We therefore present each Of
your lordships with a piece of money,

yourselves"

the Junior Judge carolus. 1t costs

deafness is the result, and unless the infamma-
