A bill has been introduced in the
Sena e by Mcconnell of Humboldt
TO regulate the charges for transporta-
ton of passengers on railroads, rs
follows:
Section !. Il shall be unlawful for
any incorporated railroad company
operating any railroad passing en-
tIrely through this Stase to charge or
receive more than our cents per mile
for transporting any person from any
point DR. place in this State 10 any
other point or place within this y ate.
Sec. 2. II any officer, agent or en-
ploye of any such company shall vio-
late any part of the provisions OF this
Act he shall be deemed guilty of a
misdeneanor, and, upon convection
thereof, in any Court of competent
jurisdin. ion, he shall be- fined in any
sum not less than 500 nor more ti,an
$500. or he snail he imprisoned IN The
county Jail for q term of not less than
thirty days nor more than six months,
and he may be punished by both
such fine and Imprisonment, 1t the
discretion of the Court.
Sec. 3. AL fines i'm posed for . vio-
lation of thi. Act, and all costs, IN
case of conviction, shall lie a lien up
on all the property of such company
situated in this State, and execution
may issue therefor against such coni-
pany.
Mr.. McConnell's bill, while good as
far as it goes, does not come up to The
needs of the people of this State. The
first section should he more general
in its terms, and include all road.
operating within the State. And.
again, a very important feature Ii
omitted. Determinations of freight
against individuals and localities arr
the most CALLING evils to which the
people of this State are ST. bjected. W.
have 10 idea that the present Legisla
ture will prove any be ter than pre-.
vious ones, or that any wholesome
law will be enacted by it to lighlen
the burdens of the people from the
grinding exactions OF railroad monop-
olies. The trouble Is, the railroads
are ably represented at Carson, while
the people are not.

THE PEOPLES ca

During a heated debate In Con-
gress last week Belford (Republican)
of Colorado expressed his position
to the Funding Bill as presenting a
schsme of gross inn o i.ion on the
people. After making some remarks
on the silver question, he said: AZ
want to say to my Republican friends
of the East that the time has come
when, If the single standard theory
Is to be the policy of the Republican
party, We in the West will revolt
against their banner. We recognize
silver as the money of the Con -titu-
ton, the money which was honored
and respected in the States before the
Constitution was adopted. If It Is
right to protect pig-iron in Pennsyl-
vania, sugar in Louisiana, copper In
Michigan, 1t is right to protect the
silver product of the West. We will
bow neither to the golden-headed inn
age of New York, o to the IRON
footed image Of Pennsylvania, and If
u rights r not respected we will
march under the banner of that party
which accords to the great silver in
terests of the West a decent and hon.
est recognition" His fiery declara-
ton that he intends to stand up for
the silver interests of this section oil
the country, let these interests carry
him in a party sense where they may,
was punctuated by a hearty round of
applause On the Democratic side OF
the chamber. A number of his Re-
publican colleagues also %congratu-
lated him on his brief but vigorous re
ply to Chit enden's recent assault on
the double-standard theory.

Railroad schemes.

Senator Per ev has introduced a bill
in the Legislature 10 construct a rail-
roa1 from Eureka to the Colorado
River. Il will pass through White
Pine and Lincoln counties. 1t pro.
vides for subsidies from the counties
interested as follows: Eureka, $780,
900; White Pine. 5000 900; Lincoln.
5000, 000-each county 10 have the
amount of its subscription in fully
paid up stock. The bonds are to run
twenty wears. The company is COM
posed of John Z Platter, X. Richard,
M. ID. Foley. Thomas Wren, X. Sad
Ter. NJ. NJ. Johnson, j. s. Wilton,
and other prominent citizens OF Ed-
reka.
We are surprised TO see that Senator
PerIey has lent himself to any such
scheme "a the above. While our
county would be greatly benefited
by the construction of a railroad from
Eureka to some point on the Utah
Southern, we have neither the means
nor inclination 10 give any company
5000, 900 to build one. And We would
advise our delegation In the Legisla-
ture to steer clear of all schemes, of
whatever nature. having in view the
appropriation OF county funds for rail-
road or other private purposes. Any
measure of ills nature passing the
LEGISLATURE will he speedily squelched
bv the people of White Pine when 1t
comes before them for final contirma'
ton. To us the whole matter looks
like a ''pnt up job" by the " pronni-
nent citizens of Eureka" for selfish
ends.

THE CONDITION OF ICELAND.


The inhabitants of the Emerald Isle
seem fated to a perpetual and fruitless
struggle against the misfortunes
which beset them. It is but q short
time since that gaunt famine ravaged
the land, causing the tears of sympa-
thy to flow from the eyes Of the
tender hearted everywhere and caus-
ing the hand of charity TO be out
stretched for the relief of the pressing
wants of an afflicted people. With
the beginning of the past farming
season in the island the prospect Of
abundant crops gave promise of bet
ter times; but with this partial i'm
provement in the condition of the
people rame the increased exactions
of the merciless landlords, to whose
demands the people could respond in
no other way than by. appealing to
the last argument of strong men suf
fering from insupportable burdens
that of resistance 10 the oppressor.
The origin of the titles Of the pres
ent race OF landlords in Ireland dates
away back into the fendal ages-ages
of barbarisIn and robbery, when
might was the only recognized right
and when the conquered we're left en-
tirely at the mercy of the eonqueror.
The ancestors of the present race of
toiling and suffering Irishmen were
then de spoiled of their possessions in
houses and lands, and the lands were
parceled out among the followers of
the military chieftains. The Irish
people of to-day know the origin of
their troubles, and have never been
able to respect the titles of ownership
thus acquired to the homes OF their
ia hers.
Had the landlords even of the pres
ent g neration been wise enough to
remain upon the estates, the titles to
which were secured to them by the
laws of England, and had they done
what was easily in their power-to
make the burdens of the people toler
able-the present trouble would have
been prevented; but they chose, for
the far greater part, to reside either in
ENGLAND or on the Continent, where
they spent the vas revenues wrung
from the labors of their tenants, thus
making their burdens heavier from
year to year.
Had the Government of England
been wise enough to see what was
plainly seen by other governments
and by the people of other nations,
the remedy could easily have been
applied; but the Government relied
upon its known and recognized
strength to enforce the laws as they
stood. at least to the extent of CON-
polling submission for the time. Now
the Government finds itself confronted
with a condition of things which 1t
had not counted upon-that OF a peo-
pie resolutely determined to accept
suffering in any other form rather
tn an Ion xer endure their present bur-
dens, and with the sympathies of the
entire civilized world on the side of
its disconnected and oppressed sub
iects.

no, and the gentleman thus placed

The Fight at tAlbrnY-Plattss With
draTyll.

An important change was made in
the Senatorial light at Albany on
Thursday last by the withdrawal of
Senator Platt from the contest and the
substitution of Crowley in his place.
The withdrawal of Platt is supposed to
have been caused by an ugly scandal
with which his name is connected and
of which an Albany special of the 1st
inst. gives the following particulars:
ga hall boy in the Delavan reported
| suspicious conduct of ex-senator Platt
with "a strange lady, who arrived dur
lug the afternoon and was assigned
room ll3. The report was made to
Senator Woodin, one of the Half-breed
leaders, and plan was at once laid to
secure information. Rooms 1O6 and
lO7, opposite 113 were hired, and Occu-
pied in the dark by some of those in
room l13 at 10: :3S. Not long after
wards those waiting secured q step-lad-
der, and removing their boots looked
| through the closed transOm and saw
both parties en- dishabille. Platt remain.
ed in the room till after two O'Clock
this morning, and then OH proceeding
to his room was obliged to pass by
rooms log aud 1O7, occupied as above
stated, as well as rooms 7S and 79, &C.
cuPied by the Democratic Senators
and room 80, occupied by outside par.
ties. something like fifteen persons
saw the fugitive as he thus passed
through the corridors. Within hall
an hour Platt proceeded to Cohkling'f
room, held a conference in regard te
the matter, and it was agreed to call i,
a conspiracy against Platt. The
strange lady remained in the room till
noon, when she was taken to q car.
riage and driven rapidly away"

There are at present in. the Old
World and in the New World more
than 100, 900 locomotives. Their total
force is equal to 80, ,OOO. 600 horse power,
and all the other steam-engines on the
globe are estimated at 46,OOO. 600 horse
power. The technical " horsepower, !"
however, is equal to three average
horses, and each horse to about seven
men the aggregate power, therefore,
Of all the engines being vastly more
than the effective force of all the hu-

the steam-engines now at work have
been made within qurter of csntu-

Miss FRANCES E. WILLARD, Presi-
dent of the Woman's National Chris
tian Temperance Union has just re-
turned from an extended tour through
the United States, and the other day,
to Boston correspondent who asked
her if she was made to feel that she
was Yankee" she said:
Not at all. Everywhere my well
come was cOrdial, spontaneous, frater-
nal, beyond all my experience at the
North even. I neither asked nor took
pay and was prepared by the liberality
of many sisters North to pay my ex-
penses. And the sight of a Yankee
who refused to speculate" off the
ic chivalry and hospitality of Southern
people. Homes of culture and elegant
hotels made me their free guest; bish-
ops of four denominations, many pas
tors, judges, generals and other men OF
mark presided when spoke; all Pro-
testant churches opened to a temper
ance audience and q Northern woman,
but above all others did the grand old
Methodist churches-North and South
stand by me and my cause.
Miss Willard said another thing still
more to the purpose. In answer to the
question why political adventurers like
Tourgee do not find the same condition
of affairs she found in the South she
said: Because they go not to find it,
but rather conceal it with digging up
the skeleton of old animosities."
And the Republican hyenas will
despite the accumulated, evidence OF
the character of the above, keep right
on tearing open the grave of the buried
past and strive to rekindle the spirit Oi
hate between the sections.

Illinois Wheat Crop-OhiO Wheat
-Discouraging Prospects. in lili-
-Eha follnWins from Sanratary -Fish- :
er's forthcoming report are given us
by Secretary Chamberlain, and show
the area seeded 10 fall wheat in each
of the three grand divisions Of Illl-
nois, the per cent. plowed up this
Spring, and the condition Of the crop
on June ], - reported 10 the Depart
ment of Agriculture. The condition
Of the crop on May is also given for
comparison. The report shows thar
over ens-half of the area of the fall
wheat in the Northern grand division
has been plowed up, and the condition
of. that remaining gives promise OF
only IS per cent. of 3 fair average
yield per acre. The acreage of the
crop in this division 10 small, bsin g
less than two per cent. Of the total
wheat acreage of the State.
The central division represents one
third of the wheat area of the State.
The counties, with scarcely au ex-
csption, report the condition Of wheat
as much worae than At the time Of
previous report May y, at which
time the condition indicated 62 per
cent. of an average yield per acre.
The table shows that a per cent. of
the wheat area has been plowed up.
and the remaining acreage promises
bat 45 per cont. of an average yield.
Two thirds of the wheat area of the
State is in the Southern division.
There has been much less wheat
destroyed in this section than farther
North.
The table also shows an average of
Is per cent. plowed up, aud that the
rsmaining acreage will make half an
average yield per acre, which is better
than some would.be" authorities
have reported.
The condition May l gave encour-
agement for II per cent. of an average
yield in this division of the State, or
q per cent. better than on June l.
The wheat harvest will be much
later than usual. The many com.
plants of injury to wheat by the
chinch bug, army worm, aud unfavOr-
able weather, will prepare the public
for even more diseoulaging reports
before the crop is harvested.
This figures for the State only about
thirty four per cent. of q fair average
total, or l5,OO0,0 1000 bushels, allowing
for the area plowed up. In Ohio very
little of the Winter wheat has been
plowed up, and the late cOpious rains,
Secretary. Chamberlain thinks, make
Ohio's probable total about eighty per
cent. of fair average crop for the
last three years. or 35,OOO,OOO to 40,
Q0l, ,0GQ bushels. Reports from Indi-
ana and Michigan are almost as dis.
couraging as from Illinois.
The Ohio State Board of Agricul-
ture will not issue June crop report,
as the prospects since the rains are
about the same as May l. The next
report will be about Jsly I, just as
the wheat is ripening.
