This drummer lay is the offspring

meant 70 deprive the people Of the

no doubt OF its being in conflict with
the constitution Of the United States
inasmuch az il seeks to regulate
commerce between this State and
other States. We do not know OF
any class OF business men who suffer
more from outside competition than
the newspaper publishers Of Nevada.
The press OF this STATE is largely
dependant upon job work. The
rninsusly low rates charged in San
Francisco almost destroy the busi-
ness Of job printing on this side OF
the Sierra. The Nevada printer
must approximate the San Francisco
schedule Of prices or he cannot get
any work. Meantime, the rate OF
wages to iourneymea is largely in
advance OF that which prevails in
California. Solicitors from San

stantly coming among US and

while this is hardship to the print

sideration is in the nature Of a pro

nUnGAN AMI rUm SUIT.

The needless augmentation of the
length of the Texas and Pacific road,
that it may aggrandize the Pennsylva-
MIA Central on tho one hand and Hunt
ington's California lines on the other,
and its future control and management
by the successors" Of these men, who
will direct at will the course of COM
merce and travel over it-these are the
objections to the scheme that should
be remedied. Congress should build
the road, and if it is to be a ''South-
ern Pacific" in Gods name let us have
PLAIN sailing and fair dealing. The
road should be part of the Southern
system and not managed by Northern
railways, of which it is to be part,
and surely not by the president of the
Pennsylvania Central on the one hand,
and of the Central Pacific on the other.
We want a road from Norfolk to Quay
mas. Tom Scott and Huntington will
hold the stock in the road, elect its
officers, appoint its agents and control
its Through trains" and direct travel
and freights at will. Everybody said
that if Dodge and the International
had secured the management of the
Central the whole trade of Texas would
have been turned backward into New
York. But Morgan won, and now the
wealth of Texas is thrust into Clinton,
and Morgan must double his fleet of
steamers. The same power over the
course of Unconstitutional traffic will
be exerted by Tom Scott and Hunting
ton, and if We are to have Southern
Pacific rosd," let its stockholders and
corporators be Southern men, identI-
fed with Southern cities and Southern
railways. II this may not be, simple
honesty demands that the public do
main Of Texas, given to Southern
Pacific road" be retroceded to the
State. This Lsmar bill contemplates
the construction of another Central
Pacific road, which bends down into
Northern Texas, scoops" out our
priceless domain, and then trends away
northwest to San Francisco We may
be robbed, but do not choose TO have
Congress make downright fools of US.
Change the name when changing the
fact and restore our public school
fund, and proceed to build this Phila-
adelphia and San Francisco highway
60 R0mine. This is its proper designa-
ton, and this it must be in fact if
Huntington and Scott build it and
bold the stock and manage it. With
in FIVE years after its completion the
Texas scoop" will be taken out and
the road Strengthened and made direct
from Sc. Louis to San Francisco, and
we must be conten. with little "feed-
ers" to the trunk line that dips down

and New Orleans and Charleston and
