The weekly clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1863-1882, 1882-08-02

THE reduction Of the tax on tobacco
is opposed, on the ground that tobacco
IS a luxury. It is legitimate agricul-
tural production, anyhow, and if a tax
on it abates the consumption, Of course
it damages the producer. But it is one
of the poor mans luxuriss, if anybody's,
and taxing it adds to the cost of the
poor mans enjoyment. Why should
there be such singing out Of luxuries
for special taxation, when the tendency
is only to make the poor man pay a dis
proportional share of the taxes or go
without Injuries?

n. Y. HERALD: An act of this State
prohibits all persons from travelling on
Sunday except in cases of charity or neces-
sity and certain specified errands The city
of Cohoes was recently sued for damages by
4 woman who had suffered injuries by rea-
son of an obstacle negligently left in the
street. The city advanced the plea that the
accident occurred on Sunday, when the
plaintiff was travelling in violation of the
law In an opinion just rendered the Court
of Appeals holds that this affords no excuse
and constitutes no legal defence for the neg
ligence of the city authorities. "The
statute forbidding unlawful travel on Sun
day." says the Court, ''prescribes penalty
for lis violation, but it goes no further, and
there is no principle upon which it can be
held that the right to maintain an action in
respect of special damage resulting from the
omission of defendant to perform public
duty is taken away because the person in
iured was at the time disobeying a positive
law" In some other States the courts have
taken different view of the matter and
held that person cannot take advantage
of one law while violating another

specific statements of Newell that large
sums had been used to bribe a bill

The SENTINEL is positively and reliably
informed that the Union Pacific and Cen

ment of rates by which the people OF
Nevada will hereafter be enabled to get
their goods from the East-New York,
Chicago, St. Louis. or any where else, with
out paying tribute to San Francisco. The
details of the adjustment we are not able
to publish with particularly, as those
from whom we get our information are not
yet in position to give US the whole matter
for print. This much we may state, how-
ever, that a very material reduction has
been made in the freight on staple articles,
especially on hardware aud groceries. On
all of such articles the freight will here.

Chicago to Palisade, or any other point in
Nevada, than it has hitherto been from

CASSIDY AND MERRILL.
Democratic Speaking ~ EIkO FIR
GnY NiHht.

Democratic Speaking ~ ElkO Fri.
day Night.
Elko Independent Of Saturday: Pursu-
ant to announcement, a very fair audience,
including a respectable number Of ladies,
assembled ct the Courthouse last night,
where for two hours they were entertained
by Hon. George W. Cassidy, in an able,
straightforward and manly address. He
reviewed at some length some of the most
prominent acts Of the Republican party
in which it was evident that that party.
or the leaders thereof, we're controlled
by ~monopolists. and had used their inlu-
ence in directing legislation in favor Of
monopolies as against the interests OF the
massea. He showed. not by mere asser-
ton. but by historical facts, that the war
publican party against the silver in
terests was a direct blow against the
principal interests Of the peopls OF Ne
vada. He counseled the direction OF at
teution to other han the waning mining
interests OF Nevada, and promised his
earnest support Of any measure looking to
the development Of the agricultural inter-
ests of the State, and showed that legisla-
ton had been already procured SO far as
to insure an appropriation by the Govern
ment early in December for the sinking of
artesian wells in this State. His compar-
ison Of the record Of the two parties on
several very important measures which
were under consideration during the re-
cent session of Congress, among which
was the Regan Railroad bill, SHOWED very
favorably for the Democratic side Of the
House.
Altogether the speech was a good one, as
his arguments were based on the public
records and his propositions were suscepti-
BILE of veriication by anyone who will take
the trouble to investigate. At the con-
clusion Of Mr.. Cassidy's speech Mr.. Mer-
rill WAS introduced and addressed the
meeting in a few we'll chosen remarks, but
owing to the ~lateness Of the hour he de-
tanned the audience but a short time.
These gentlemen stopped over in Elko
to-day, the first rest they have had for sew
eral weeks. and went down to Carlin this
evening, whore they speak tonight.

The Catholic Festival.

The ladies Of the Catholic Church in
Eureka propose to give a festival the date
and other particulars Of which will be seen
by reference to the advertisement else
where. These ladies have not asked any
thing of the public in the way OF patron.
age like this for the last four years, and
they request us to say that the object OF
the entertainment now proposed is to cell
aud put a new roof on the Catholic Church
and to build o fence around the graveyard.
They will give their friends in the COM
munity an equivalent for the contribu-
tons made in the good cause. The request
for aid they make is modest and their ap.
peal for the worthy object OF the festival
should be responded to literally: The
last festival they gave was a very enjoyable
affair, and an entire success. They will
spare no effort or expense to make the pro-
jscted entertainment surpsss even the last.

Interesting Notes.

Two small hogs, maturing early, are
more profitable than one large one.
The best butter from grass is further
improved by feeding the cows little
corn meal.
1t is said to be more profitable to
dispose of cattle at two years old than
to keep them until they are three years
old.
Fish farming has become popular
with the farmers of Georgia, and there
are already $500 ponds in that State
which have been stocked with German
carp,
1t is estimated that SO per cent.
of the people of this country are far
mers: The per centage used to be about
70, but the increase in manufacturing
has caused the decrease.
The value of agricultural implements
produced in the United States has in
creased ten fold since 1858. In that
year the census showed it to be So, 800,
900. Now tits more than $6S, 900, 900.
Those who claim that in the matter of
watering animals they should be treat
