The Central Pacific Railroad Company
not only charges what fares and freightsit
pleases and discriminates against Nevada
in every possible manner. but still resists
the payment OF the taxes justly due from
II. The San Francisco Bulletin says,
that II possible the company will carry
the tax cases into tho U. S. Supreme
Court. We have no doubt that the COM
pany will never pay the taxes legally
due from 1t. until 1t has exhausted every
mode Of litigation. We have also no
doubt that it will never pay the amount
it owes the people, until summary meas
ures are enforced. for which at present
there is little hope. The railroad in
the last Congress was not to be gain
saved, and in the next, it will probably
exercise an equally powerful sway.

In which he says:
In spite Of the allegations OF poiiti-
clans We believe no more peaceful people

those States did we find evidence OF one

most amicable and will continue so. In

politicians. No rights OF their newly
acquired citizenship will be contested
but public Offices will DO cheerfully

and decency are respected in their seiec'

Louisiana needs is, not force bills. but
peace, industry and less taxation.
