"The undersigned, residents and bust

are satisfied that the building now being

THE COLUMBUS EXCURSION.
A Special Train to Leave Over the
3. p, TO.nighG,

This evening at $50 o'clock the
special excursion train over the Southern
Pacific to the Columbus Encampment
will leave the city. Up to last night four
cars had been chartered, and it is evi-
dent that a good many people are about
to take advantage of the cheap rates
offered, in addition to which such un-
usual opportunities for sightseeing are
given. Two Pullman and two tourist
cars will run through from this city with
out change over the Southern Pacific, in
addition to which number of passen-
gers will travel via the Santa Fe. There
was rumor about town yesterday that
persons going by the S. P. line would be
compelled to go and return over the
same route, but this was strongly repudi-
ated on application to that company's
official headquarters. The official route
is via Portland, St. Paul and Chicago to
Columbus; returning via Chicago, Coun-
ell Bluffs and Ogden. Many, however,
going East via Ogden and returning via
st. Paul and Portland, and again quite a
number are travelling over the Santa Fe.
The indications are that the trip will be
q pleasant one.

WILL SUPPORT CLEVELAND.
why Frank R. Stockton Intends
Voting the Democratic Ticket.

The most remarkable thing about the
Madison Democratic Campaign Club o1
Madison, N. j., is that it number among
its Vice. Presidents just elected, Frank R,
Stockton, the author, who until recently
was a radical Republican. He wants tc
see Mr.. Cleveland reelected. The way
Mr.. Stockton came to be converted to a
radiant supporter of Grover Cleveland
was because OF his recent visit to Wash
ington. He went there as one of COM
mittee of seven sent to represent the
American authors to see about the pas
sage of copyright bill. A day or two
after their arrival, Mr. Stockton and two
others were sent to the White House as
a subcommittee to ascertain the probable
fate of their bill
The President received the committee
in his library, where they found him
hard at work over his papers. When
their errand was explained, Mr.. Cleve-
land at once took up draft of the Copy
right bill from under a paper weight and
proceeded to point out what, in his opin-
ion, were defects from the standpoint of
an author, and suggested amendments.
The committee withdrew, and when
they reported to their colleagues it was
the unanimous opinion of the whole
committee that the President was not
only right in his views, but he had given
the authors valuable hints which they
were not slow in adopting. Subsequent
ly the President and his wife invited
them to call for luncheon. On their ar
rival Mr.. Cleveland met the visitors
most heartily, but asked leave to with
draw until luncheon was ready, on the
plea that it was then noon and he had
an important paper to send to Congress
before 2 O'Clock.
Mr.. Stockton says these two incidents
impressed him with the fact that Mr..
Cleveland was a man who not only
strictly attended to business, but did it
thoroughly and without affectation. He
has, therefore, decided to vote for the
Democratic candidate, though it will be
the first time.-[S. f. Examiner.

TOM FITCH CORRECTED.
One Republican Law which tn
Democrats Repealed.

Democrats Repealed.
EDITORS HERALD-Hon. Tor Fitch. in
his speech last night said: "They (the
Democrats looked for Republican laws
to repeal, and, to their disgust, there was
not one statute in all the nations libra
ries upon which either the commerce or
the conscience Of the country would per-
NIT them to lay destroying hand"
In Vol. XIV, page 3S5, of United States
Statutes at Large, will be found Repub-
lican law entitled can act to encourage
immigration" This act was approved
on the 4th day of July, 1894.
The second section says "And be it
further enacted, that all contracts that
shall be made by emigrants to
the United States in foreign coun-
tries in conformity to regulations
that may be established by the said
Commissioner, whereby emigrants shall
pledge the wages of their labor for time
not exceeding twelve months, to pay the
expenses of their emigration, shall be
held to be valid in law, and may be en-
| forced in the courts of the United States
or of the several States and Territories ;
and such advances, if so stipulated in the
|
the Recorders office in the county where
the emigrant shall settle, shall operate as
lien upon any land thereafter acquired
by the emigrant, whether under the
homestead law when title is consum-
mated or on property otherwise acquired,
until liquidated."
This law, under which the paupers OF
Europe were brought to America under
a contract of service, was in force for a
period of 81 years. The destroying
hand" of Democratic Administration
not only repealed it (1SS5) but made it a
penal offense to induce immigration un.
der a contract for service. 1.-The con-
science of the country" acquiesces in the
repeal of such iniquitous legislation with
infinitely more complacency than do the
protected Barons who have grown rich
from the service of pauper labor i'm
ported from Europe under the section Of
this law. This enactn Mt furnishes doc
umentary evidence OF the solicitude
which the Republican party has mani
tested for the laboring man of America.

THE RAILROADS.
Collapse of the New Freight
Tariff Expected.
CHICAGO LEFT IN THE COLD.
The G. A. r. Excursion to COlumbus
to Leave the City Tonight.
Depot Notes.

There is a good deal of excitement in
freight circles just now. The new tariff
rates issued by the Transcontinental As
sociation have reused storm such as
has seldom been seen before since the
vast network of American railways was
constructed. The Transcontinental Asso.
citation presumably issued its tariff on the
rulings of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, and as this made discrimination
for seabord points, the result has been
to leave the interior in the cold. AS an
instance, hardware is quoted at $3.50 a
hundred from New York to the Coast and
at SO from Missouri river points, So 20 from
the Mississippi, So. 40 from Chicago, and
$3.50 from Pittsburgh. This practically
ruins business in Chicago, and the mer.
chants of that city are preparing an ap-
peal to the Supreme Court of the United
States. But there is another grievance.
The trunk lines, those running east OF
Chicago and St. Louis, say that their pro
rata is not sufficient to induce them to
accept any overland business at all, and
as result no goods are being booked
from Los Angeles to points east OF Chi
cago. To-day, however, bills OF
lading will be made out over
the Sunset road to Atlantic seaboard
points, and as this is the only line in
the United States that can now do the
Eastern business, heavy traffic is ex-
pected. 1t looks rather strange that
matters should be thus, and in railroad
circles it is pretty openly limited that the
new transcontinental tariff has been
issued for the sole benefit of Messrs.
Stanford and Huntington. The effect oi
the new rates is rather remarkable; fol-
merchant in Pittsburg desiring to ship
to Los Angeles can get by far the
cheapest rate by first shipping to New
York and then from there TO the Pacific
There is no doubt but that this state o.
things cannot last long, and genera
collapse of the tariff is shortly expected

NEW LINES.
What the st. Louis and IF. Road Is
Doing.

Mr.. H. G. Dinkins, Pacific Coast Pas
senger Agent of the st. Louis and San
Francisco Railway, is in the city. Talk
ing about railroad matters yesterday he
said to HERALD reporter: "The road l
represent is doing some important build
ing at the present time. From our term
inus at Denison we are constructing into
Dallas, Texas, and this will give us a
straight run from the last named point
instead of having to go around the bend
through Paris. The most important
project on hand though is the projected
road from Seligman on the State line be-
tween Missouri and Arkansas, to
Memphis, as this will run through
an old and thickly settled district.
l do not think that there is much prob
ability of the st. Louis road building out
Just yet from its terminus at Sapulpa to
Albuquerque, as the policy of the direc-
tory is rather to build in an already
populated district than to run lines
through a new country, on the hopes
of it building up afterwards. 1t will be
q splendid piece of road when it is built,
for it will shorten the distance from Los
Angeles to st. Louis by 800 miles, as the
A. T. & s. F. and T. P. lines at present
run on the outer edges oi..an oval to that
point. Then again it is great
cattle country in there, as is evil
denced by the fact that we shipped
400 cars of stock from Sapulpa last
year, when connection is made between
the two points named, the St. Louis
road will have an equal traffic over the
Atlantic and Pacific with the Santa Fe,
for as you know the Atlantic and Pacific
was divided into thirteenths and the st.
Louis and Santa Fe roads hold six
of the lines can obtain control of the road.
The st. Louis road, however, has at
present traffic arrangement over the
Atchison from Halstead, so there is no
security for their building out west for
competition purposes"

A Tale of Jack Frost and Jacks
Cider Barrel.

The cold weather froZe the water in
the cider barrels in Spruce billiard
hall in this city, a hot iron was run to
the center of that barrel and few
customers were astonished, delighted
and for a day made happy by drinking
the pure quill. The weather changed.
the frozen matter left in that barrel
thawed out as fine water, tinged with
a scarcely tingable tlnge of cider as was
ever sucked through rye straw from a
ten gallon water tub with ten pintS OF
apple pealings thrown in to color it.
Two noted cider drinkers, ore Stout
enough to Seat the other. called for
cider, Whats this ?" was the stimuli
taneous exclamation, "Cider," said the
Wise billiard hall man. "Cider. the -
it is, said the Stout man. lit is cider
just the same" said the Wise billiard
hall man, lit was so hard that you
can't taste it very well now, but don't
drink too much. it might floor you
The couple commenced at the balance of
that barrel two weeks ago, and if the
water works don't run dry, they have
a big job before them, for everything
they see drawn from that barrel they
imagine is hard cider. A big fat milk
man was laughing hbout it today, but
when a bystander told him he would
rather have watered cider than watered
milk, he fell over backwards, and Edged
toward his milk wagon and set up an
unwaterable drink, that became popular
in certain campaign, buttermilk.
