Outrageous Facts.

1t can be demonstrated beyond
dispute, that the Radical party has
robbed the State of Texas to the full
amount of half the entire taxable
property now in the State. Besides
the wholesale robbcries committed,
the prescut administration has
plunged the State into the midst of
dangerous debts. while the people
are bowed down under heavy taxes,
and forced TO deny themselves the
mcrcst necessities to enable them to
pay these burdensome claims. Tex
ans to day pay more taxes than CIV
or before. Previous to the war they
paid from one twentieth to one
ninth of what they are now forced
to pay. During the war their ad
valorem taxes were not so heavy
nominally as now, and on account
of the abundance of Confederate
money, its great depreciation, and
the high price of every production,
The taxes were paid with more ease
than ever before. After the war,
under the reconstruction. the tax
collected by General Reynolds was
only one ninth of what it is now,
and even the war claim ofone-tenth
in kind, of products, was felt tar
less than the present taxes, for this
was fraction, not the whole of a
farmers labor as it now is in many
instances. Besides this tenth in
kind was to clothc and feed needy
friends and soldiers in the field,
and, not as the present taxes are
used, to fill the pockets of a once
hungry set of carpet-baggers and
scallawags, who have grown to in
dependence upen the robberies of
the people. These mem some of
whom have held office but a short
while, can be seen almost any day
upon the streets of our city riding
in their fine carriages, and surround
ing themselves with a show Of ease
and opulence; their splendid man.
sions are already built, rising up in
the subarbs, their bank accounts
are of magnificent proportions, and
their receptions grand, while the
honest. hard-working Taxpayers
can hardly make living by the
sweat of their care worn brows.-
And all this case of these officials is
obtained while they receive sala-
ry from the government Of not more
than two or three thousand dollars
a year.=dnstiR Statesman.

Another Railroad Trick.

| The Central Pacific Railroad ~ endeav-
oring to get a bill through Congress, grant
ing to the company, as free gift, what is
known as Goat Island in the harbor of
! San Francisco, to be used as n depot AMI
/ terminus for tho Road. The citizens of
! San Francisco have become reasonably
alarmed at this attempt, and the Chamber
Of Commerce has sent on its protest against
it. They represent that the gift would be
worth to the Company S20,O0O,0OO. That
the Island is surrounded by deep water
and suited to the building Of wharves, and
that the object Of the Railroad Company
is to injure the old city of San Francisco
by drawing off its trade and lesseniag the
value Of its real estate TO the amount of
millions. That .he Central Pacific road,
now said to be worth Sl000OO,O 900, was
built mostly by the aid of the Government
that the city of San Francisco gave the
Company 100000, and sixty acres of
valuable land on the water front for
terminus and that the Company now seek
to accomplish this great wrong through
the agency of another gift from the Gen.
eral Government. Says the Protest: at
would be wrong to give the Central Pa
cifc, or any other railroad corporation
"or company, the free use Of 100 acres of
"land with water frontage to come in
competition with lands and property Of
" our own citizens, that cost them hundreds
uof millions in hard cash." VeIily rail
roads seem to be actuated with the same
spirit every where. They seek their own
advantage with an utter disregard of the
rights of others. They are vampires,
holding on and sucking out :he last drop
of blood, if possible. To accomplish this,
all means seem to be held justifable, and
the State, the Church and the Bar are in-
dscriminately used, whenever they car
be made available to carry out their pur-
poses of dgrandizement and power. 1t is
time the people were aroused TO the great /
danger menacing them.
Not only the Congress but the State Leg
islatnres must be watched with the eye of
eternal vigilance. Let every candidate
for the Legislature in Texas be questioned
on this subject, and be pledged to resist
all railroad encroachments upon the rights
of the people, Let no charters be hereaf
ter granted without sufficient guards to
prevent impositions and exactions, which
violate all reason and justice. Lct 10
soft humbugry blind the eyes or filthy iu-
ere d.fle the hands of legislation hereaf-
ter. What can be softer than the paw of
the cat, or more soothing than his gentle
purr until he chooses to run out his sharp
claws and raise his defiant scream? We
trust this effort of the Central Pacific road
will not succeed, and that the protest of
the good citizens of San Francisco will be
needed by Congress. We are sure nll the
members from Texas will vote against
this iniquitious bill, except little Clark,
the carpet Dagger, who has no right to
vote ut all.

The Richmond Coal-Field.

As General IaBoDEN said in his late paper
read to members of the Legislature, as vaiu,
able as the Richmond coal-feld undoubtedly
is, investments made in it have not been gen.
orally profitable, while in some instances
large amounts Of capital have been entirely
lost by a conspiracy of circumstances. The
coal Is remarkably rich, and is in great de
mand in certain branches Of manufacture
while as q CRATE coal for families its use is
more consistent with health than anthracite
The fire from it resembles more wood fire
than the fire from any other kind of coal, and
is therefore decidedly the most agreeable OF
all save that from camel coal.
Located SO near tide-water navigation and
so near this city. which is to 60 so extensively
into manufacturing, it has seemed strange
that better results had not been attained from
working this field. That there is an abund-
ance of coal is clearly ascertained, and that
there is ready sale for all thatcan be raised is
proved. Why is it, then, that mining in this
eoal-feid is SO slow a business and has yielded
so little profit ns.,. !. 81.
