arrived here shippers were obliged to pay
greater amounts than contract rates, as
the agents here are instructed to charge
by weight, regardless of what the coun-
try agents put on the bills. -
''You say the weighing of stock by the
western roads at this market causes loss,
damage, and inconvience to shippers
and the trade in general here. Now;
supposing the railways have a right to
charge freight, on live stock by the
hundredweight, and they insist on doing
so, what plan would you propose by
means of which such evils could be OBJ
viated?''
81 am advised that it is legally wrong
for railway to charge freight on weights
of stocks unless they have scales of their
own at all stations, where they can
weigh each carload of stock and be able
to tell the shipper then and there just
how many dollars and cents the railway
will charge him on each and every car. -

Beaten BY White Caps.

CHICAGO, ILL, Dec. PA dispatch
from Martin IS Ferry, Ohio says at Hopo-
dale, Harrison county, Christmas night,
the White Caps visited DR.. John Park
hill, a leading physician, and gave him a
terrible thrashing. His errand boy had
been intoxicated and the White Caps ac-
cused Parkhill of drugging him. Charles
Gamble, a merchant, hearing they con-
templated regulating, accosted two men
whom he had reason to believe were
members of the organization, and threat
ened to shoot them in case demonstra-
ton was made against him. There is the
utmost excitement here and the White
Caps will probably be regulated.

GREER COUNTY.

F,yeIonment nj the County

The Land Laws Cut No Figure in the Rapid De-
Fyelopment OF the County.
MANGUM, GREER Co., TEX, Dec. "a, 1sSs.
To the Gazette.
In recent number of your newsy and
valuable paper, correspondent, argu-
ing for change in the land laws, gets off
the track in reference to Greer county,
and says ''the bare possibility that the
land laws of the United States may pre-
vail here is causing this county to settle
more rapidly than the Panhandle coun-
ties The truth is, the prospect of the
United States land laws being enforced
here is now and has heretofore kept out
hundreds of men. The reason Greer
county is going ahead of her sister coun-
ties is that nature made her superior in
some respects to all the rest of the Pan
handle. For instance we have
an abundance of water for all pur-
poses. There are twelve or fif-
teen creeks of constant run
ing water besides many springs and
short branches along the rivers, of which
we have four, Red river proper (mis
called North Fork Salt Fork or Elm,
Frazer and Prairie Dog, all of which
have permanent water except the last.
Then we have sufficient timber for fuel,
scruby oak, walnut and cedar on the
east, and cottonwood, elm and hack
berry on the streams. These natural ad-
Yantages, with soil unsurpassed, and the
fact that settlement can be made and a
home secured without immediate outlay
Is the reason we are getting immigrants.
As proof that the land laws cut no figure
nine out of ten that are here are claiming
$40 acres, the limit under the present
law. II. c. SWEET.

Election on the Adjustment of the City Cor
pOration.
Correspondence of the Gazette.
HUBBARD CITY, TEX, Dec. 24.-The
election on the adjustment of the city
corporation to-day passed off remarkably
quiet, in fact it was rather a one-sided
affair. Only twenty-seyen votes were
cast for adjustment, when it required
fifty names to the petition to the county
judge asking him to order the election.
Almost the entire town, including many
ladies and children, are out tonight eel
ebrating the victory. A large torchlight
procession, headed by the Hubbard City
Band, with flags and banners, paraded
the principal streets and then marched to
the center of the public square, where
fireworks shooting anvils speech making
and music were freely INDUCED in. 1t
was by far the most enthusiastic crowd
that ever met together III Hubbard City
not even being excelled by the demon
STATIONS of the famous prohibition cam
paign of 1887. On some of the banners
carried in the procession were such mot
toes as "We Want no Sham Reform in
Ours, - "We viii Pay the Tax, - "No
Real Estate In Our Town at soc. on the
Dollar, - "We Love Law and Order, -
"Not Busted Yet -
The people of Hubbard City have
shown by their action at the polls that
they appreciate n clean, healthy, or
derby, growing and thriving town on a
solid financial foundation, entirely out of
debt and money in the treasury.

ST. LOUIS, No. Dec. PA sESkial
from Purcell, I. T., says the Indian
scouts under Lieutenant McComb. VISITED
Oklahoma station, and arrested Taff ii
that vicinity, compelling them toafssshssp
their wagons and take everything with
them and go to the scouts camp. The
scouts disarmed the men and drove them
like so many hogs. Many of
those who were arrested were men
who had been engaged in teaming
for the government. Others had been
railroad employees who were temporarily
without work and who expected work
soon. The people of Purcell are very
indignant, supposing it to be a scheme to
capture the town site. Some of those
who have authority at the station have
small houses built on runners. This is a
new and the latest style of architec-
ture. but it may possibly be very con-
Yenient where one has several masters.
