home from Mariposa to Stockton, Sugar
Foot and his band leaped into the road.
There was the usual demand, the usual
tactics of wicked muzzles pointing at the
driver, and rough hand at the leaders
heads. But there was change from the
usual programme when Parkhurst, draw
ing pistol, let fly right and left, and,
with pull on the reins and q call to the
horses, sent them flying through the dis
comited robbers. Charley had aimed ct
the man who appeared to head the gang,
and had the pleasure OF seeing him clasp
his hand to his breast and tumble back
ward. The shot was fatal to Sugar
Foot's predatory excursions, for, while
his companions fled, he crawled into q
miners cabin and gave up his sinful
ghost. :...
There are other stories told of Park
hurst to show the daring conduct of the
man in the face OF difficulties and dan
gers. It is told that once, while driving
q fractions forr-in-hand from Oakland to
San Jose, the m ran away SO suddenly
as to throw Parkhurst from. the box.
Still retaining his grasp on the lines, he
was dragged along until he succeeded in
turning the runaways into the chaparral,
where they caught among the bushes and
stopped. To show their admiration of
the drivers pluck, the passengers made
up and presented him with q purse
Again, when drivers were scarce he did
double duty by driving both ways over
the road, keeping on the box night and
day, and earning double pay for months.

The WIscoSsIN CENrRAL.-The

Daring the last two years the
Wisconsin Central Railway com
pany has been quietly but rapidly

tiou frees The country from AL EN-
barraSsment. It's stock has already
assumed q value in the market, and
the danger Of being wiped out by \
foreclosure, which has so long
threatened il, IS now removed. The
business Of the road, as shown by
the earnings, increased IN 1870 o. er

Of advantage to both companies. 1t
was stated that both the Chicago,
Milwaukee 81 st. Paul companies
were DESTROYS OF securing this pro,
perty, but the mutual interests OF
both the Wisconsin Central and the
Milwaukee & Northern have again
placed the latter under the control
OF the former company. New lines
have been and are now being con
structed by the Wisconsin Central
company. One branch track into

now nearly finished, about two

The Democratic press. [volume] (Ravenna, O. [Ohio]) 1868-1901, 1880-10-28

Who believes that the Government
of the United States has any constitu-
tional or moral right to levy taxes di-
rectly upon all the citizens or all the
property of the nation to build up
mammoth manufacturing mOnopolies? ?
And what power or right has Congress
to tax the whole property or people of
the nation for the purpose of accom-
plishing the same object indirectly |?
The only power which Congress has in
the premises is derived from the Con-
stitution, and we would be pleased to
have any one point us to the section or
sentence comforting such authority, if
it exists. The truth is, it is monstrOus
doctrine and one to which no sane
man can give his assent. The only
power conferred on Congress by the
Constitution in the premises is to levy
duties on foreign imports for the pur-
poses of obtaining revenue to defray
the expenses ofthe Government. That
necessarily affords a large incidental
protection to our domestic manufac-
lures, especially while the Government
is compelled to raise annually from
$2OO, 900, 600 to S5OO,OOO,OO0, for that
purpose, which it is quite likely to
have to do for half century
or more to come. And that is all there
is to a "tarif for revenue only"
Should the time ever come when the
Government will need no revenue
does any one believe that Congress has
any authority to tax all the people for
the benefit of the manufacturing mo-
nopolies of the country? The idea is
most ridiculOnsly absurd.

Pertinent Questions.

A "Skilled Workman" writing to
the Cleveland Penny Press, propounds
some very pertinent questions to the
sage Of Mentor. He says: .,..s.
Garfield says in his letter to Mr..
Morey, Of the Employers union at
Lynn, Mass, on the Chinese question,
that 'individuals or companies have
the right to buy labor where they can
get it the cheapest"
L would like to know, as a working
man, if the consumer or employer Of
labor has the right to buy labor where
he can get 1t cheapest, why the con-
sumers of the manufacturers products
should not have an equal right to buy
them where they can get them cheap
est? What logic or fairness is there
in the policy of passing laws to shut
out rivalry and competition in the sale
of the commodity which employers
produce. while we workingmen are
abandoned to the mercy of ruinous
competition with imported cheap Ia
Dor? Why a tariffof protection to the
employer, and free trade in the wages
of the employe? Why should the
prices of things which we all must
buy be made dear by law, but .oul
muscle and skill. which is all we have
to exchange for the cost of living, be
| sold at the lowest competitive prices
Can Garfield, or any man, be a sincere
friend of labor, nay, can he be just
and say such thing? Perhaps some
Of those smart :" business menu who
employ labor, and who yet claim in
their public demonstrations to an in
ordinate anxiety for the welfare of the
laborer, can explain just about where
they can see the justice and equality
of this thing.
