Outrageous Discrimination.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: This section
Of Pennsylvania is represented by soldiers from
Maine, Massachusetts,, Vermont New York
Delaware, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan
Missouri, Wisconsin and California besides
those from this State in the following PennsyI-
Yania regiments: 1st Rifles; 5th, 9th, 9Th, 9th
and 10th Reserves; 1st Mt'd Inf; 3D. 4th, 12th
10Th and 18th Cav; Sd Art; 57th, ODD. SD,
I05th and l50th Inf, and numerous other regi-
ments that contained brave boys from here
The records Of these regiments are written in
blood on the pages of history.
The Northwestern Veteran Association is
formed by soldiers from the Counties of Mercer
Crawford, Erie Warren, Mexican, Forest, Cla-
rion Jefferson and Venango, The association
met in Bradford this year, and the railroad
fare being an item, the committee endeavored
to get cheap transportation, as the soldiers who
had to help pay the bonds they made good are
not blessed with bank account.
Now here is where the outrageous discrimi-
nation comes in. The Z. & T., N. Y, p & O..
b., n. Y. & z. Railroads traverse this part Of
the State, and it is reported the p & f. would
not reduce the regular fare.
In July, on an excursion from this CITY to
Kinzua Bridge III miles beyond Bradford).
round-trip tickets were $3.50. Again, Aug 6,
hose company ran an excursion to Niagara
Falls, 70 miles beyond Bradford; round trim
tickets, $3.50. Again, Aug. IL, to knzua; fare
$3.50. Again, Aug. TO- the l. o. o. F. excursion
to Niagara Falls; fare, $3.50. All of these on
the n. Y, z. & 0.
Now for US the Committee ON Transportation
succeeded in getting fare at 1925 for soldiers
attending the association,
A report is current, and believed to be true
that a written agreement between the N. Y,
?. & o. and the B.. N. Y, s. p Railroads not to
carry for less than one fare for round trip from
Oil City to Bradford (about 50 was entered
into by these roads. You will see what the
rates for excursions from here to different
points have been.
With Private Dalzell I must put few cues
tions. but they will not be answered by the
railroad companies.
Why should the railroad companies charge
soldiers more than others?
What object have the railroad companies in
entering into a written contract STIMULATING the
price of fare2
Did they discriminate against us because
they considered us below the common standard
of humanity Perhaps they concluded we
were obliged to attend, and charged US accord
ingly.
By this action of the railroad companies a
small attendance at the meeting was the result
We do not consider the rate of fare exorbi-
tant, but we do consider it discrimination to
be charged more than others. We deserve
equal rghts.-W. Ii. QUAY, Private, Co. l. 6Sth

Proyidential Spring.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: l have read
several communications in your valuable paper
regarding the Providential Spring, and what
/ have to say is not correct it is on account of
fOrgetfulness. / was prisoner at Anderson
vile something over five mOnths-from May %
to Oct. q, 1864. l do not think that when the
stockade was enlarged on the north side of the
branch there was a spring where this one is
located. There was wet and swampy place
from the dead-line down the branch.
Said swamp ran up the hill from the branch
near or about half of the way, which was wet
and spongy, and often a muddy walk to the
branch; but finally there was a walk made by
cutting along the dead-line and throwing up
the dirt away from the dead-line, which made
a walk to the branch Some time in August,
when the big rain came, water burst out near
the dead-line nearly twO-thirds of the way
from the branch to the entrance gate on the
north side, and ran down along the dead-line,
or in the ditch which was made by throwing
the dirt up for the walk. This water ran into
the branch under the dead line, and those who
have gone there for water could often see
current of clear water which flowed into the
muddy branch. | do not think that we could
dip up water from the spring or from the ditch.
We had to go down to the branch. Well do 1
remember poor soul being shot by the guard
at the branch, who fell forward into the branch,
all because he reached his cup Just a little be-
,
Whether or not this was a PrOvidential
Spring do not know. We could get no water
at this place until after this rain and after this
walk was thrown up. | do not remember see
ing spout to convey this water within the
limit of safety. If Yank even put his hand
upon the rail of the dead-lne he was shot.
Comrade Hall probably inhabited some other
part of the prison, and did not visit this part
often.
Comrade Williams says that the spring broke
out from an old well. This, ! think, would be
impossible as all the wells had to be dug very
deep. The nearest well / remember to this
spring was just above the gate which was
filed up. at the time of digging quite num-
Der of the boys under a Sergeant by the name
of English, dug tunnel from this well, be-
ing one of the party nicknamed Moseby. We
were caught at this tunnel and the Dutchman
had it filed up; also the well. AS for the
spring. you have my views as l remember
them.
Comrades, will say subscribe for THE Ma
TIONAL TRIBUNE. 1t is the soldiers paper. If
you all would read its columns weekly we
would be stronger in the faith, and we would
be more likely to get recognition from the
Government. / have been reader Of THE
NATIONAL TRIBUNE since it started, and
would not do without it if its subscription
