Fir. DAVIS, July, Goth 1884.

ED. FREE PREss.-By some fortui-
tous combination of circumstances we
became the possessor of a rail road
pass, and resolved to make trip
westward over the Southern Pacific
to see if there was not some place in
Texas cooler than San Antonio.
From San Antonio to Del Rio the
country is like most of the other por-
tions of West Texas. but from Devil S
river to Ell Paso the average Texan is
surprised to find such wild, mountain
GUS country.
AS the mouth of Devils river
especially is the scenery grand and
imposing. Passing along the Rio
Grande, with steep bluffs hanging
overhead and an occasional tunnel, a
fine view is to be had of the Santa
Rosa mountains across the river in
Mexico. The road all the way from
Devils river to Ell Paso is but a
succession of curves, which made a
ride of hundred miles in the engine
all the more desirable. The engineer
says some of the curves are so sharp
that he reaches back and tickles the
toes of the sleeping passengers in the
sleeping car, when he wishes to relieve
the monotony of the canyons, while
the fireman declares that in rounding
some of the curves, passengers pass
him out their cigars which he lights
at the engine, returning them to their
owners as they pass the next curve
But both these assertions strike me
as exaggerations.
At Langtry Station, named in honor
of the Jersey Lily, Freddie is nowhere
to be seen, but no doubt his picture is
hanging in tent near by which is a
saloon and the only residence IN the
place. Every fifty miles we passed

track. which is both the office and
home of the operator.
Not an animal is to be seen IN this

is hauled in water cars or tanks

The principal points in Buffers
minority report to the Democratic
Platform are embodied in the follow
ing resolutions
Resolved, That no taxes, direct OF
indirect, can be rightfully imposed
upon the people, except to meet the
expenses of an economically admins
tered government. To bring taxation
down to this point is true administra
tive revenue reform.
Resolved, That the people will
tolerate direct taxation for the ordinary
expenses of the Government only in
case of dire necessity or war.
Resolved, therefore, That the
revenue necessary for such expenses
should be raised by customs duties
upon imports after the manner of our
fathers.
Resolved, That in levying such
duties two principles should be care
fully observed: First-That all
materials used in the arts and manu-
features, and the necessaries of life
not produced in this country shall
come in free, and that all articles of
luxury should be taxed as high as
possible up to the collection point.
Second-That lin imposing customs
duties the law must be carefully
adjusted to promote American
enterprise and industries, not create
monopolies, and to cherish and foster
American labor.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON July Is. 1884

w IL, 1OoH'
The halls of Congress are given up
again to dust and desolation. A few
attendants are going the rounds,
clearing the desks of members of
their rubbish; and piles of bills,
speeches, reports and crumpled manu-
scripts are scattered about the floors,
awaiting consignment to the junk
shops. The jauitors are putting
double locks on the doors, and nearly
all the rooms are deserted. The
Presidents room has been stripped
of its rich draperies, which have been
packed away securely from moths.
The enrolling clerks, journal clerks,
and the clerk of the House sppropria-
tons committee with his assistants,
have been the hardest worked clerks
Of the session. and are now arranging
papers, which will detain them several
weeks yet.
The general public does not regret
the close Of a session Of Congress, but
the residents Of the District Of Con-
gress bu; the residents Of the Dis
trict Of Columbia have never known
