SOMETHING ABOUT RAILROADS,

Labored articles against railroads in
general and the Central Pacific in par
ticular are now given to. the public
almost daily by the Republican papers
of Western Nevada. This indicates
that a general election is approaching,
otherwise no allusion would be made
TO the subject in the columns of many of
the journals which are now up in arms
against the Central Pacific Railroad.
People not conversant with the facts
would be led to believe from articles
now published in the Virginia Enter
prise and Reno Journal that the party
whose principles they advocate is in no
manner responsible for the high rates
of fares and freights on the railroads of
Nevada. The plain truth is the Central
Pacific Railroad Company does not
charge as much for passage or freight
ever its road IN Nevada as it is author
lied and empowered to do by Act of
Congress-, passed when the Senate and
House of Representatives were Repub-
lican by overwhelming majorities.
Though the Enterprise and the Journal
ere aware of this fact. they find no
fault with the party whose legislation is
responsible for it; but empty the walls
Of their wrath on the company which
does not charge for fares and freights
aver two-thirds what it is empowered
10 do by Act of Congress.
But there is a railroad company in
shis State. created by Act of the State
Legislature. and over which the State
should have full control, whose charges
are as high as those of the Central
Racific Railroad, yet against which the
Gomstock, Carson and Reno papers do
aot turn their batteries. This is the
Virginia e. Truckee Railroad, which. by
discrimination, monopolizes the wood
and timber business of Virginia City.
Why is it that the Enterprise when pour
ng its broadsides into other railroads
INST before election does not aim few
shots at that concern? If it shonld do so
sndtell the people that through legisla-
don enacted by Republican Congress
md Legislature the railroads of Nevada
we're authorized to charge higher rates
br fares and freights than they are now
doing, It would have the consolation Of
showing that it was telling the truth, if
Il did not make capital for it's party.

Types of Feminine Beauty.
boston Globe.l


Dark-eyed, black haired, swarthy-skinned
men rave over pure blonde. They would
consent to be ferried over the Styx by Charon
so their companion had deep-bue eyes, gold
en- tresses and peach blossom skin. There is
another class of men, whose eyes are hazel,
and whose hair is dark brown, and whose
complexion is fair, and these indulge in SPAS
modic rhapsOdies over blondes, but would
neither die for them no go an errand to the
Plutonian shore for their sweet sakes, These
male loves OsCillate between the genuine
blonde and the compromise with the blue
eyes, brown locks and fair complexion. A
fair-haired, blue or gray-eyed man dotes on O.

Iahltan orange, or dark-bright as that of
Esther, and her orbs piercing black as the be-
diamond eyes Of the beautiful Egyptian, which
flashed ruin upon the soul of gray-eyed An
tOny-all these exert subtle sirenic influence
on the Scandinavian or Saxon type of men.
just here some words in parenthesis. One of
the most unconquerable of the fair sex is she
who has blue eyes and dark or brown hair.
Her nature is composite. She Is neither blonde
nor brunette. Hen eyes and her hair are at

[Natchitoches indicator

The Baton Rouge Convention must not only
pledge the party for a constitutional conven-
ton, but it must submit the question to be
voted upon and call for the election of dele
gates, as was done in 1874
This is demanded both on the score of re-
form and principle. and for the reason that
this question will be decided in the affirma-
tive, it behOOves us to send none but sterling
men as delegates to this convention.
