MIR. CLARK'S
ENDORSEMENT
Will Doubtless Have Strong influence
in the Right Direction

Of particular interest at this time
is the publication of an interview
with Mr.. W. H. Clark brother OF
Secretary of State George A. Clark of
Topeka Kansas, in whose office he is
employed. In the course Of the in
terview Mr.. Clark said:

THE GOVERNORS MESSAGES
Resumption of Bulletins Issued Under
Authority of the Railroads. Of
Nebraska"

After an interruption OF some
months the publication of those bulle-
tins. issued under authority of the
railroads of Nebraska" was resumed
last Thursday afternoon. Technically
the two documents are known as GOV
ernor Savage's biennial message to the
legislature, and Governor Mickey's in
augural address, and while they con-
tain some matter irrelevant to the
question of taxation, both documents
are as good examples of special plead
ing for the railroads as were any OF
the bulletins prepared last summer by
the doughty colonel from Colorado.
cumbersome taxation and an il
liberal invocation of the sovereign
power of the state in controlling the
great carriers of inland commerce is
but a response to prejudice" says Gov
ernor Savage, "and contains such ele-
ments of reprisal and aggrandizement
as are we'll intended to disturb conf
dence in our sense of justice and hon.
esty of purpose. Proper conserVa-
ton and regard, therefore, for our
mutual welfare admonishes scrupulous
avoidance of legislation susceptible OF
such construction and Interpretation
as to constitute manifestations OF pre-
judice in the distribution of the bur-
Gens and responsi ibilities OF public gov
ernment."
That sounds wonderfully like one OF
the oratorical flights OF John L.
ctCheap Wheat') Webster. The Oma-
ha Bee believes it to be the result OF
collaboration on the part of Private
Secretary Clancy and Governor Saw
age, the equitable division of labor
being that. Clancy wrote it and Say
age read. it. There are ear-marks
however, which indicate the rhetorical
efforts of a practising attorney. This
is a much better specimen of fine
writing than Ruskin's example.
Boiled down, it means: Keep your
hands off the railroads"
Don't tax the railroads, because any
tax is "cumbersome'-to them. Don't
try 70 control them in any way-that
The independent., 1903-01-15

believe from it that the railroads OF
Nebraska had been overtaxed and OPP
pressed, when in fact they are paying
less than one-nalf Of the proportion
of taxes imposed on all other classes
of property and are assessed at less
than l per cent on the value of their
property in Omaha, South Omaha and
Lincoln. while ali other taxable prop
erty is assessed at 100 per cent.
''As a whole, the Clancey-Savage

ture reference as a fair sample Of
maudlin mediocrity playing at state
craft"

taxpayers Of Dundy county that tney
pay mills for state purposes on each
SO of fair cash value, while the tax
PAYERS of Saunders county pay 5 mills
for state purposes on each ~ or talr
cash value Under such conditions,
$500 of property in Dundy pays as
much general fund tax as $500 in Saun-
ders-three times as heavy tax. CIV
ing the state board higher limit, the
levy of mills on Saunders and on
Dundy for state general fund would
euualize matters. How to determine
what fraction is used in each OF the
counties is a difficult matter, and un-
der present conditions can best be as
certained by change in the method
of making the railroad assessment
on which later The Independent will
speak.
The idea is prevalent that there is a
constitutional limit fixed for state tax
alton. This is an error County tax
alton is limited by the fundamental
law, but the legislature has full power
to provide for any levy it chooses for
state purposes. AS a matter OF fact
a 1O-mill limit would be better than
6b or 7, because then the total levy
could be made sufficient to cover the
appropriations and equalization done
by levying the full ten mills on some
counties and as low as one or two on
others, if found necessary.
On the whole, Governor Mickeys
message is much the ADLER. 1t has the
merit of brevity. He does not in
dulge in the fantastic nonsense which
characterizes Governor Savage's mes
sage-say, for example the abolition
of the offices of auditor and land COM
missioner. Governor Mickey, how
ever, falls into the error OF asking for
the creation of state accountant The
auditor performs this service for the
state. 1t will be hard to devise bet
ter system of checks on the state
treasury and the other Offices than
now exists.
1t would not do to omit quoting Ed
ward Rosewaters closing paragraph
reviewing Governor Savage's message.
He says:
absolutely indefensible is the at"
tempt of the outgoing executive -
befog and confuse the railroad taxa
ton issue by the following declara-
ton:
1t is manifestly wrong for the
state to be exacting and arbi-
trary with one class OF taxpayers
and Indifferent and ultra lenient
with others. | have in mind the
taxes levied on the railroad prop
erty, not one dollar of which re-
mains unpaid, yet there are others
who advocate the adjustment Of
the discrepancy between our ex-
penditures and receipts, not by re-
quiring the payment of taxes by
all, but by requiring corporate in
terests to contribute correspond
ingly greater amount. Injustice
is written across the very face of
this proposition.

Railway and Council Disagree.

There is a clash between the Biloxi
Electric Street Railway Company and
and the council over the matter of
what part of the street shall be given
over to railway tracks. A committee
of the council met and outlined the
portion of the streets to by used, but
this is not satisfactory to the Compa-
NY, which claims it has the right to
any part of the street it desires, to
use. This the Council denies, and
claims the company must go IS that
Board says. The somewhat unique
condition exists of the City Attorney
being also the attorney of the Street
Railway Company, and drew the ordi-
nance in which the franchise was
granted, which rather mixes matters
as to who is right. A special meeting
of the Council will probably be called
to consider the matter.
