OF SIS. Heretofore four different tickets
have been required.
Every passenger who has ever jour-
neyed to the Pacific coast, and every rail
road man who has perchsnce looked at the
time tables, knows how slowly the trains on
the Pacific roads run. Passenger trains
there make no better time than the fast
freights on the eastern road, but a move
meni is on foot which will probably result
in quite a revolution in the time schedules.
The government directors of the Union
Pacific, in their report, say that the open
ing of competing lines north and south,
in their opinion, makes it necessary for the
company to take some steps to maintain
the advantage il now has in the passenger
business. To this end the directors believe
the running time of through trains should
be materially shortened, as this can be
done with but little Inconvenience, and a
small increase of running expenses. so that
the time from Omaha to San Francisco
may be reduced bv from twenty -four to
thirty six hours. The increased expenses
will be more than compensated for, they
think, by the increase in the number Of
passengers, and the income from that
source

Captured an Eagle.

A large gray eagle, weighing probably
forty pounds, came in on the narrow gauge
yesterday morning, by Pacific express, and
went south to Nevada last night. The
bird was captured by q farmer of Hickory
county a few days ago, and was exhibited
to Mr.. S. s. Sherman, formerly of this city,
but now of Nevada, who concluded that il
tanned it would make desirable pet, and
with that object in view he paid for it the
sum of $40, and the express charges will
foot up an additional s.
The eagle had swooped down upon q
yearlirg calf, but found the burden more
than it was able to carry. Its talons. how
ever, were imbedded in the flesh TO such .
depth that they could not be removed, and
while the bird was endeavoripg to extri-
cate itself the Hickory county farmer cap
tured it. The bird was vicious in the ex-
IRENE, and finger placed in close proximi-
ty stood an excellent chance of being badly
lacerated, if not amputated. Mr.. Sherman
will receive his pet this morning, and if he
is not at church, the people of Nevada will
know how to account for it

Will Probably Marry.

On March Is, in the SUNDAY MORNING
BAzoo, was given the particulars of a Sc
duction case at Montrose, in Henry county,
wherein Miss Katie Myers appeared as the
victim, while Mr.. John Marsh, q young
farmer, figured as the villain. Miss Myers,
as the result of loving not wisely but too
well, found herself in an interesting condi-
ton. and besought Marsh to marry her, &C.
cording to promise. Instead, however, he
left the country, and it was thought MIS-
souri, would know him no more.
Such, however, did not prove to be the
case, for the BAzoo learned, yesterday. that
Marsh returned to Montrose Friday even
ing. and it is thought he intends to do all
within his power to right the woman he 80
cruelty wronged-that is, make her his
wife.

1850 Worth Of Pigs

Sedalia has just had state sheep con-
vention and state shor: horn cattle con-
ventiou, and state hog convention will be
the next in order. If such . meeting should
be held, the BAzoo feels no hesitancy in
saying that Mr.. ]. T. Arnold, who lives
six miles west of this city, would carry off
the premium, if one should be offered for
the most prolific sow.
Mr. Arnold was in the city yesterday
and informed BAzoO reporter that one OF
eighteen fine, healthy pigs. He is conf
dent that none getaway. All aredoing we'll.
What is still more remarkable, is the fact
that this 10 the sow's FIRST litter, and she is
quite young. The sire Of the pigs is
Mr.. Hick Gorrelps Thoroughbred Berk-
shire boar, and at least calculation the
pigs are worth $40 q piece, or . sum total
of $3.50. How is this for the hog raising
business? Can any county in the state
equal it?

Mr.. Westley Hockensmith, who
owned half interest in the Jake
Brown farm, has sold out to his brother
and Mr.. Lawrence Knapp. Mr.. RI.
will buy another farm.
The schools have all closed and the
Summer term teachers engaged.
Augustus and Edwin Bogue each
closed his school on the 22nd of last
month. Augustus left the following
Monday for Indiana and Edwin re.
turned to Mt. Union College to pursue
his studies. Both boys report an ex-
cellent time and successful terms.
Mr.. Daniel Bogue and wife have
gone to Indiana to visit their son, Prof.
Byron J. Bogue, at LAGRANGE, where
he is Superin tendant of the Schools.
1t is strongly rumored that Augustus
will not return to Rootstown, having
purchased fine farm in Indiana, and
being exceedingly infatuated with a
Hoosier maid, the daughter of an In
diana deacon. Gus is entirely too clev-
er not to become captivated. It will
be no surprise here to learn ere long
from Indiana, that in this manner one

Kobbery-Not Profession.

The iron business is very shaky, and
although the most largely protected"
industry in America, it causes our
commercial interests more losses and
disturbances than any other branch of
a iufac; ure.
Why?
Because the iron lords of the country
under the present tariff system, have
from 80 to 200 per cent. profit when
there is demand for their goods,
which soon causes large overproduc
tion, ty excessive manufacture on such
large profits then follow stagnant
markets, suspension and thousands of
idle workingmen, and thus the period
ical panits come. 1t is impossible to
have a steady trade or prosperous labor
under this system of robbery. and yet
they call it protection to American
labor" How nice that sounds, but
alas, how deceptive.
Men-no, not men, contemplate
demagogues-may cry protection
protection ?" but to the workingmen
i'll our shops there is no protection. Alb
solutely hone, and We defy them to
show it.
The manufacturer is given monop-
oily i'll his business and allowed to
charge extortionate prices to the rob-
berry of the masses, but he is allowed
to import the ''pauper labor of Europe"
to take the place of the American la
borers. This has heen done right here
in Alliance and is being done by man.
ufacturers generally throughout the
country.
Who dare deny it?
| When the 40 men were recently dis
charged by firm in Alliance what
class was it that were shamelessIy
turned out in the cold withouta an hours

1t was the higher priced American
laborers, while the cheap Canadians
were all retained.
And is it your system of "protec-
tion to American labor' that permits
! these things?
Out with your cursed hypocrisy
Let the infamous system of fraud, de-
ception and robbery be laid bare before
the eyes of the people in all it's infer
