Another Shot from the Examiners

ple-LOcal Notes.

Special to the Gazette.
Waco, February 5.--The Examiner
this morning raised regular hornets
nest in the city council by publishing
a statement that the city government
is the most potent factor in driving
trade from Waco to Fort Worth. 1t is
alleged that this is done by keeping in
office bulldozing and corrupt officials,
who terrorize country people from
coming to Waco to trade, lest they be
arrested and hauled up before the po-
lice court for imaginary otienses, and
| fined. To say that the mayor and
aldermen are disgruntled is drawing it
mild, especially as many of them are
extensive merchants and large prop
erty-holders, who have an active inter-
est in drawing trade to Waco, keeping
it here and building up the town gem
orally. The evening paper this after
noon protests against the statement
going abroad that the people of Waco
deliberately elect and keep in office a
set of Irresponsible, reckless and ruff
fianly men.

SALT LAKE CRY, Dec. 18th, 1884.
To the Z ditor of THE HERALD.
The City Council did about the right
thing. think. in declining to grant the
use of the canal bank for railroad pur-
poses. Some antecedents of persons
and things in railroad connection are
hardly of nature to inspire the COM
Iaunity with the fullest confidence. a
railroad is a monopoly certainly, and
sf course is built and operated prin-
e4pally in the interest of the monopo-
lists. At the same time railroad is a
public benefit. If you have the latter,
you cannot avoid having the former, to
4 greater or less extent, as the case n -'
he. To let monopoly esta' hShed for
private gain, control a route created for
other Use by public means. is not very
good thing If it was desirable to have
any sort of a road on and along the en-
bankment of the canal, an ordinary
wagon or carriage road would be the
BEST, and that wholly controlled as a
private road by the city authorities, but
for publicuse with some necessary hmi-
tations. Just as the park roads are, so that
no conflicting claims would be coming
along to endanger the interests of the
canal, water being a necessity to the
city, while a railroad or common road
along the canal would be simply a con-
TenIeECe.
