To the Honorable the Senate and As.

We. the undersigned. citizens and
taxpayers of Humboldt county, Nevada,
would respectfully represent that at the
Democratic and Republican County
Conventions held respectively October
l4th aud 18th, the delegates assembled
adopted resolutions endorsing the reso
lutions of their respective State Con-

the two following resolutions, to.wit:
RESOLVED, That the Republicans of
Humboldt county heartily and earnestly
endorse the platform and resolutions
adopted by the Republican Stale Con.

pledge oar support TO the nominees Of
that Convention
Resolved, That any member of the
State Legislature of this county who
| shall fail or refuse TO use every endeavor
to regulate the fares and freights of the
railroads in this State at the next SEES.
sion of our Legislature, shall be con.
denned by every honest man as an
enemy of the people.
We therefore would respectfully and
earnestly pray you to speedily perfect
and enact statute reducing the rates
of freight and fare on all the railroads
in this State; and to the end desired,
would respectfully urge the passage by
the Legislature of the so called Lewis
bill, regulating freights and fares on
the Central Pacific. and the so-called
"Woodburp BILL" regulating freights
and fares on the roads which have their
termini in this State.
The above memorial was circulated
yesterday and signed by $50 citizens
aud taxpayers. consisting of all the
prominent business men of the town.
and many of the large stock raisers of
this county. together with those mem
bers of the Republican and Democratic
County Central Committees who we're
in town, and without a.dissenting voice.
Many were more than glad of an OPP
portunlty to sign it. Had not the time
been limited, several hundred more
names would have been added to it.

THE CHINESE BILL.

The friends of the Chinese Re-
striction bill have secured the concur.
renee of the House in the Senate
amendments. The bill now goes to
she President, but it is generally be-
heved that he will veto it. The press,
the pulpit and the politicians in the
East are almost unanimously opposed
to 1t. The people east of the Rocky
mountains are ignorant of the true
character of the Chinaman. They
fancy him to be moral and industrious.

the vices of the white man, and the

The plague is spreading at an
alarming rate In the southern provinces
of Russia and thousands upon thou,
sands have died with it within the last
week.
A terrible explosion occurred in Stock.

trial of a new propelling pump when

Sixteen persons were killed outright
and three or four times that number
seriously wounded.
Considerable alarm is felt at the
statement in East Prussian papers that
recruits from South Astrachan are
being placed on the Russo. German
frontier.
General Todleben telegraphs that he
commenced evacuating Adrianople on
the 18th of February. and that the

THE RAILROAD QUESTION.

Last week an Elko Grand Jury, EN-
paneled for specific purpose defined
in the statutes. like that doorkeeper of
the House of Representatives, who con.
sidered himself by virtue of ignorance.
egotism aud the position which he oc-
cupied, digger man than Old
Grant," fancied themselves a greater
power than the 1900 voters of the
county, and as Grand Jurors, instructed
the Legislature as to it's daty on the
railroad question. They informed the
members of the Legislature that no re-
duction of freights on railroads 10 this
State was necessary; that i'll fact the
grain-growing and cattle raising bnsi-
ness required protection, and that the
railroads were fostering those interests
by their high freight tariff. They pre-
dicted that utter ruin to the agricultural
interests would follow the passage of
the bills now pending in the Legisla-
ture. and informed the lawmakers at
Carson that it would not be violation
of the pledges given by them to the
people before election, to let the rail
roads charge what their owners pleased
for freights.
The Independent. which clanored al
most as loudly as the Virginia Enter
prise before election. for relief from
railroad oppression. published the
fnmmery of the Grand Jury without
comment, but considerably, 10 a su5se
quent issue. gave place to communi-
cation from rancher who, with few
figures, disproves the fallacious theory
of the Grand Jury. Raucher says that
'the average price paid the farmer for
grain in Eiko county for the past seven
years has been less than So per 100
pounds. while the ruling price 10 Cali
fornia for the same period has been
about 81 per GENITAL. This would bring
freight from California to Elko down to
$50 per ton-s tariff never dreamed of
by the most radical anti monopolist-.be.
fore California could compete with
home production" R4ncher further
shows that the people ask only reduc-
hon to standard of six cents per ton
per mile. making the tariff from Cali
fornia to Elko $36 per ton, which would
enable farmers to demand 50 Topper 100
pounds for grain, much higher price
than they now receive. Thus in few
words, R.ncher refutes the arguments
of the Grand Jury. whose members are,
30 far as is known. the only persons in
the State of Nevada, except the owners
of railroads, that do not want freights
reduced.
In this contest between the people
and railroads. the members of the
Legislature, if disposed to stand by
their constituents, have only to abide
by their pledges, and inform those who
would lead them from the plain path of
duty, that they have no option in tae
matter. but as representatives of the
people. must obey their instructions.
