| METHOD OF EFFECTIVE LEGIS.
LATION AGAINST THE CEN
TRIAL PACIFIC RAIL
ROAD

Inasmuch as there have been some doubts
regulate freights and fares upon that part OF
the line of the Central Pacific Railroad which
runs through Nevada, we herewith reproduce
section from one of the Railroad laws OF
effective legislation has been perfected for the
restraint and discipline of the railways doing
business there. We quote as follows from
an act entitled
An Act prevent extertion and unjust discrimination
in the charged for the transportation
and reghs on Railroads in this State and to punish the
same and prescribe mode of procedure and rules OF ev
rAation thereto repeal entitled An
Act to prevent un, discrimination and extorion in ths
to be charged by the different railroads this State
for the transportation OF freights said roads, Ap
proved, april 7, 1871. In force, July l, 1873
Sec. l. If any railroad corporation, or
ganized or doing business in this State, under
any act of incorporation, or general law OF
this State, now i'll force or which may here
after be enacted, or any railroad corporation
organized or which may hereafter be organized
under the la,us of any other State, and doing
business in this State, shall charge, collect,
demand or receive more than a fair and rea-
sonabe rate of toll or compensation, for the
any description, or for the use and trans
portation of any railroad car upon its track,
or any of the branches thereof, or upon any
railroad within this State which it has the
right, license or permission to use, operate
or CONTROL the same shall be deemed guilty
of e1tortion, and upon conviction thereof,
shall be dealt with as hereinafter provided.
Now the value of this enactment resides in
the fact that its validity has been passed upon
and affirmed by the Supreme Court of the
United States; and this being true, it follows as
a matter of course that we of Nevada, may, ii
we will, pass a law which shall at once put
an end to the extortionate practices and
charges demanded, practiced and e1acted by
the Central Pacific Railroad Company.
We know something of the drift, texture
and extent of Speaker Gastons bill, and We
feel very sure that if the Legislature will but
pass the same it will take a most eff
fective step toward the end whose accom-
plishing is so great and essential a desidera-

some of the Western rivers.
Washington, Jan. %. stormy debate
arose in the House to- day in regard to the
Southern Claims bill, in the course of which
Bragg Dem, of wisconsin, said that if the

An Astonishing Fact.

A large proportion of the American
people are to-day dying from the effects
of Dyspepsia or diserdercd. Fhe
result Of these diseases upon the mass
es of intelligent and valuable people is
most alarming, making life actually a
burden instead of pleasant existence
Of enjoyment and usefulness as IN
ought to be. There is no good reason
for this, it you will only throH aside
prejudice and skepticism, take the ad-
vice of Druggists and your friends,
and try one bottle of Green's August
Flower. Your speedy relief is Ger
tain. Millions Of bottles of this med
icine have been given awayto try its
virtues, with satisfactory results in
every case. You can buy a sample
bottle for 10 bents to try. Three
doses viii relieve the worst case.

A SAMPLE PATRIOT.

Col" Harry Gilmore. of Maryland,

in the Senate Gilmore was one of
those men who deserted his own State
and turned against her to 50 into the
rebellion. Leasing, in his history Of
the war, says that one Of Gilmore's
first exploits as a rebel cavalry leader
was to levy contribution of $4,000
upon Hagarstown Md, and to sweep
through that section, robbing friend
and fee alike The same authority
SAYS that Gilmore seemed to take spec
ial delight in tormenting the people of
his own state According to a report
of committee of the Maryland legis-
lature the Confederate cavalry under
Gilmore which raided that state des-
,troyed S2.000,000 of property. He
led the party which pillaged and burn
ed Chambersburg. by which $500
people were rendered houseles and 81
0O0,0 of property was wantonly deS-
troyed. This is the favorite son o:

Mr. EDITOR:
Keep it before the people" that this
= e1trs~session of Congress was forced
upon the country by the Confederate
Democracy, not for the purpose Of en-
acting any legislation for the relief Of
the country but to pass law, in the
language of Representative Chalmers
.of Fort Pillow notoricty ''to prevent
the army from keeping the peace at
elections to enable them, under the
heresy of States-rights to@give ''abso-
lutte freedom for rife clubs and red
shirt rufians at the polls, and no in
reference with sballot-box suffers and
tissue ticket opTators" to enable them
20 carry the election in 1880 knowing
that with an honest vote throughout
the country they would not have the
least chance Of success.
The only object Of this extra session
Of Congress was to enable the Conted-
crate Democracy to wipe out existing
laws passed 10y the republican party to
secure honest elections. not dreaming
that President Hayes would oppose
their revolutionary schemes by a veto,
but they have learned to their sorrow
that the President is true RepubIi-
can and that he viii never consent to
the passage Of any law that places the
enforcement OF United States law un-
der State authority.
The Presidents veto of the bill .sto
prohibit military interference at cleo
tons on the ground that it places the
execution of United States laws under
State authority, meets the hearty APP
.proval Of all loyal people and complete
lily routes the Confederate Democracy.
His veto message should be read and
preserved fer future reference in the
future contest which the Confederate
democracy are making to have States
rights rule the country. There is
great uneasinesS felt among loval men
"asi 10, the course the extreme Southern
rebels will pursue in. their madness at
the President for preventing the CON
summation of their desires. 1t has been
asserted that it is not safe fer Presi
dent Hayes and Vice President Vince
Ter to both be in this city together as
they would be assisinated in order to
give the Confederate Democracy COM
plete control of all branches of the
Government Another assertion is
rtlgaJ'in ease the Confederate Democra-
cy fail to elect their candidate for
President IN 1880. Congress, the Con
federates having q majority through
caucus legislation will declare the
election void, thus placing the Presi-
dent Of the Senate in the White House,
therby giving them control of the Elk
ecutive branch of the Government.
The threat has been made that ''be-
fore great while, the damn Yankees
will be cleaned out by the depart
ments"
Those who were here in 1860
say that the signs Of to-day indicate
another struggle for the maintenance
of the government against the hcresy
of States-right as they did against the
rebellion which followed the election
.of that fall.
