Another Lick at Nick Of the Woods,

Another Lick at Nick Of the Woods,
We are reliably informed that the
Central Pacific Railroad has aimed
another blow at Pritchards Fast
Freight Line. The tariff from San
Francisco to Palisade has been great
lv Increased within the last few days,
while the rates t Elko have been
correspondingly reduced. In other
words, it now costs a couple of dol
lars more per ton to have goods
stopped at Palisade than it does to
have them continued on thirty or for
ty miles further to Eiko. How Tins
will effect the business me- OF Eure-
ka remains to be seen. If Pritchard
is forced to the wall, of course tram
scient teams will take the place OF his
regular line. Whether freight rates
would be higher under such IA state OF
affairs is Il matter that no II can
well toretell. We are OF the opinion
that it is far better for our business
men that Pritchard's regular anI re-
liable | ne should be continued. hen
our merchants are certain OF getting
their FOODS through on time there Is
not the same necessity for Carrying
heavy stocks that there would be IN
case they had to rely upon Struggling
cams. Reliable and rapid transport
tation is ALWAYS best for any coll4lhu-
Ditv. However. the railroad nallaS-
ers are going for Pritchard, II the
indications are that they will make II
uncomtortably warm for HIM.
