Lack OF Wisdom on the Part OF tho Rail-
road Managers.

CHICAGO, July 9, 1874
To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
The railroad war in Wisconsin has aroused O
widespread interest, not only in the West, bnt
throughout the entire country. The Wall street
caravan or bulls and bears particularly the latter
have SO manipulated and distorted the facts thatit
Is difficult for the public mind to get at the real
truth But the real truth is just what Is wanted.
1t may with certainty be stated that the people OF
Wisconsin are not so utterly devoid OF common
honesty and common sense as interested parties
have represented. To those who know no better
bu: who ought to be better informed, Western
.Crangern is creature OF the Imagination, but one
or two degrees removed from an ordinary high
wayman. He Is supposed to be not only
destitute OF every moral quality. but to be more
over most profoundly Ignorant OF the inestimaole
benefits which railroads have conferred upon the
human race The vie VS. OF New York capitalist
IN regard to the farmers OF Japan would, as
general rule, be far nearer the truth than his
opinion respecting the grangers OF the West. He
knows nothing OF the one; he knows less than
nothing OF the other. But he fancies the latter to
be o monster of destruction--a being created for
the express purpose OF tearing up railroads and
throwing trains on the track; creature so per-
iectly diabocal as to have no regard whatever for
the property OF corporations or Tor the lives OF pas
seupers: a fend, in fact, VINO would set back the
march OF civilization and transform the lerti G
fields OF the West into the ''howling wilderness"
from which, by means OF the divine power and
heavenly influence OF railroads, 1t had been orig
inally rescued.
IL seems pity to destroy so fine a conception of
the Imagination. But ignorance is constantly
creating '.bugoears," to be slain by gathering
knowledge. ignorance seems in some respects
ever more creative than intelligence. The
"eranger," so tar from being so Wild and whtnsl-
cal being as lalsehood has drawn him, Is SIMPLY
a Western farmer, who beneves he has Tlgnt5
which railroads are bound TO respect. rhe
"grangers," so called and so little understood,
constitute o large portion OF the farming popuia,
tion OF the West. The attempt on the part on
those In the railroad interest TO class these peope
rs 'Commnmsts'-rural Communists-is prepos-
ferrous. They are nothing OF the KIND.
What they want Is justice, ana TINS tney are re-
solved to have, not outside oil, but. inside Vi tne
law. AS soon as the railroad managers come 10

The proprietor of this celebrated medicine Justly
claims for it a superiority over all remedies
ever offered to the public for the safe certain spec
dy and permanent cure of Ague and Fever, or
Chils and Fever, whether of short long stand
ing, He refers to the entire Western and South
ern country to bear him testimony to the truth of
the assertion that no case whatever will 1t fail
to cure If the directions strictly followed and
carried out. In a great many cases a single dose
has been sufficient for cure, and whole families
have been cured by single bottle, with perfect
restoration of the general health. 1t is, however
prudent and IN every more certain of cure, If
its is continued in smaller doses for week OF
two after the disease has been checked, more ee-
pecally in difficult and long standing cases. Usu-
ally this medicine will not require any aid to keep
the bowels in good order. Should the patient
however, require cathartic medicine, after having
taken three or four doses of the tonic single
dose of Bulls Vegetable Family Pills will be sufi
cient.

The impudent brandishing of his green
backs in the Senate by Flanagan of Texas
in the course of defence of the salary
bill is retribution that comes home to the
party of which Flanagan is a member.
There is no public sentiment in opposition
to the salary grab in the southern States.
There is nothing to make a public senti-
ment out of. The carpet baggers whom
the Republican party has forcibly placed
and maintained in power there have been
grabbers from the beginning; they have
grabbed and robbed till it has become a
regular business operation in which they
see no wrong. Their constituents do not
care fig about tie salary bill, and they
themselves do not care fig for the popu
lar excitement over it at the North. AS
to responsibility to an intelligent public
sentiment, they do not know what it is.
They are independent of public sentiment;
all of them who have held seats in Con-
gress since 1865, with the exception of
those from South Carolina and Mississip-
pi, have been misrepresentation forced
into the Senate and the House by the re.
construction machinery. What the senti-
ment of the colored Republicans in South
Carolina is worth was proved by the re-
election OF " hittimore after he had been
expelled for selling eadetships. The Re-
publican party feels keenly the shame OF
Flanigan's vulgar and impudent exhibit
ton but it must be remembered that
Flanagan is its own offspring.
