HOSPITAL TAx-Employees Of the
Northern Pacific who receive 800 or
less per month pay 30 cents per month
to the hospital fund. these who receive
from 800 to 800 pay 81 per month.

The San Francisco Chronicle positively
asserts that the Central Pacific Railroad
Company has made a full half million
dollars during the past ten years by Its
hospital tax. an assessment of % cents
a month being levied upon every en-
ployee for the maintenance OF the hos

A Contrast.

James G. Blaine aud John A. Lo
gan were candidates for the two
highest offices in this Union at the
election Of November 4, 1884.
Blaine in accepting the candida
cy printed long letter which was
filled with smooth sentences, en-.
deavo'ins to make it appear that
he was a National candidate, and
would be a President Of the Nation
aud not of a section. He was beat
ell.
a few daysago his friends in AT
gusta, Maiue, his home, ..serenadcd
him and gave him an opportunity
to speak his obituary. He did it.
He simply threw off the mask and
l. t the world see him i'll its true
light.
Mr.. Blaine thinks that bis defeat
will be "a great National misfor
tune" and then goes on to throw
the bloody shirt to the winds and
abuse the Southern people. He
says the whites III the South have
more power than they have in the
North, which we say is false. He
says every Democratic Senator from
the South..was III the confederate
army.
Southern Senators did not hire
substitutes and have themselves
detailed from the field, which was
J. G.. BIS practical idea of a soldier
90 years ago.
Mr.. Blaine says that the laboling
class of the South will have, under
a Democratic Administration, to
work for 80 cents a day or just what
the employers will pay them, which
indicates that j. Il. B. is a fool.
The whole speech was filled with
bitter ISLANDERS and falsehoods, in
terlined with malice aud venom
aud personal spitea at his defeat. He
shows that lie is unfit to be any
thing out a sectional President,
that his ideas are cramped up in.
the belief that the Radical party is
the Government and that any part
OF the Union that viii, not knuckle
down to him should not be permit
ted to have any standing in the
Government. His speech shows
t0nclusively that his election would
have been Il great National misfor
tune.
Mr. Logan came out .squartly
with his bloody shirt and sectional
ideas and maintained them all the
way through, aud was beaten. He
silently bows to the will of the
people. How much nobler aud
grander is Logan to day than
