TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT. Union
Temperance meeting was held at the
Congregational Church, Sunday even
ing, Bishop Bagley, Independent Meth
odist, presiding. Addresses were made
by Revs. Greer. Whitworth, Woodward,
Mcleod, and Mr.. John Denny. The
following named ladies were appointed
a committee to solicit signatures to the
pledge to total abstinence from intoxica-
ting drinks: Mrs. D. N. Hyde, Mrs. DR..
Weed, Mrs. c. D. Emery, and Miss
Freeland. One hundred and thirty y-nine
signatures to the pledge, including some
Of our most responsible drinkers, were
procured before the meeting adjourned.
The rumor that the ladies contemplate
raid upon the liquor saloons, for the
purpose of holding prayer meetings, we
are confident, from the high woManly
character of the ladies composing the
committee, is not true.

A NgEoED CHANGE.

The Enterprise this morning contains
suggestion which should DO urged by
every newspaper in the State, II not on
the coast. We refer TO q change OF
time on the Central Pacific Railroad
whereby passenger trains will cross the
sisrras during daylight Al il In now
arranged the worst portion Of the Gen.
trial Pacific Railroad; I. g.. that part
from Reno TO Colfax, 10 travelled in the
night time, and no n who has crossed
the mountains need be told that 1t is q
dangerous route. Aside from this peril
which would by changing the time Of
transit from night to day. Be- greatly de-
creased, there are several other reasons
Why this change should DO made.
The Central Pacific Railroad carries
many tourists from the East and Eu-
rope. They are DESTROYS Of viewing the
most interesting and picturesque por-
tons OF the route. There 10 no scenery
ON the overland route which surpassss
that Of the Sierras. Not even the far
famed passes OF the Rocky Mountains
can equal some Of the scenery in the
midst OF the peaks and timber Of our
range. These are well worth seeing.
but o. tho time table is now arranged
are missed BY the tourist who travels all
day over the sand and alkali Of oui
desert region, only to retire when hi
reaches the mountains. There 10 nc
sense 10 such an Arrangement; neither
do We believe IL necessary.
The Central Pacific Railroad man
ayers are not noted for accommodating
Nevada people. Although that road
charges us enormous freight rates
and 10 receiving . svenuo daily
augmenting from our people, both
in frsights and fares. 1t pays no
more attention to our accommodation
than To our rights N . state. storey
county contains to-day . population OF
nearly 40. 700. 0rmsby county from g.
600 to 1000 and washoe perhaps 5000
more. Add to this the fact that nearly
all travel from the country south comes
to the G. p. r. r. at Reno. and Ii Is evil
dent that so large ~apopulation has some
claims upon q road il benefits for &C
commodation. But a. things now are,
there il actually no favor whatever
vouchsafed Us. True. We have q sleep

only upon repeated and persistent sole
itations BY oficsn Of our local road
Passengers are now obliged. unless OBJ
tanning bsrths in tho sleeper, which is
often niled. TO travel in the night time
up and down the steep sides OF our
mountains, sit for hours at Reno, and
then, still IN the night, climb over noun

sec this schedule changed. 70 that the
trip from Virginia City over tho Sierra

have instituted inquiries n TO the treat
ment Of Tweed on B~lackwell's Island.
The former thinks that II current re-
ports Of the lsniency shown him are
true, the State Is d~isgraced; the latter
tells the Commissioners OF Charities and
Correction that they merit removal II
they have allowed Tweed any privileges.
There is no question that the strict rules
OF the prison are not enforced in Mr..
Tweed's case, and some Of them (such
q 9 requiring him. or any other man OF
his size, to sleep in the narrow cells)
ought not to bs. Tho published state
ments Of the kindness extended to him
have without doubt been greatly sxas-
gerated; nevertheless. the difference in
the treatment Of Tweed and other con-
victs is too marked to escape observa-
ton. Mr.. vance's sharp note and Mr..
Laimbser's refusal to assume further
responsibility for Tweed's safe keeping
indicate that at length the authorities
recognize that his treatment creates
grave scandal.
