The commission, therefore, finds the
adjudges that the transportation Of
freight by the respondent upon its road
from Chicago to st. Paul, Minneapo-
lis and Minnesota transfer, and from
the northern termini to Chicago is
made under substantially similar cir
cumstances aud conditions to those
under which like freights are trans
ported on the same line from initial
point or points in the same direction
to intermediate stations, and such be-
ing the case, that the greater charges
which the respondent to such interme-
date stations are illegal An order
viii be entered that the respondent
cease and desist from making such il
legal charges.
Incidentally, in discussing the case,
the commission says they do not IN
derstand on what ground the Burling-
ton & Northera, while insisting that
its rates from Chicago to st. Paul are
remunerative, can justify charging the
same rates for One-third or two-thirds
the distance. Upon its own showing
these rates seem to be oppressive. The
commission does not discuss the cues
ton of how far water transportation
may Justify greater charge on a
shorter haul IN any case, there being in
the case no facts to make the discus
sion relevant.

The Rio Grande Riots.

Austin dispatch: From various let
ters and kilograms received by the
governor on the subject, it appears
that the trouble at Rio Grande City
has been brewing for a long time
Sheriff Shelby some time ago, in the
course of his official duty, came in con
tact with the Mexicans who compose
the larger portion of the population.
The opposition to Shelby in the race
for the Office of sheriff worked on the
race prejudices of the baser element
among the MeXicans. This OppOsi-
ton was infamed by the revolutionary
element on the other side of the river.
Editor CARA, who prints a paper at
Corpus Christi, took sides against
Shelby and when the latter's deputy,
in the course of his official duty, was
compelled to kill a Mexican, Cara
published hbels against him. For this
Deputy Sebree had Cara indicted for
libel. The feud between these two
resulted In their meeting in the street
of Rio Grande City one day and an ex-
change of shots, and another Mexican
was shot, but Sebree escaped unhurt
to Fort RinggOld, where he was pro
tected from the Mexican rioters, who
In the meantime took possession Of
the streets Of the town. Col. CIenden-
ming, commander of Fort Einggold,
had to stand off 200 armed Mexicans
with force Of 135 soldiers. The fed
era1 forces viii occupy and protect the
town until the state rangers arrive.

To the Republican, OF the second

AS you have made me the stand

to YOUR request.
The unity of your convention was
SO striking in its approval Of me
thatI could not retnre to accept
the nomination, trusting that |
shall have the support of all and the
cooperation of every Republican
IN the district. For the entire sup
port OF every one of you is our only
nope OF Success.
The Democrats have nominated
one Capt, S. D. Brad we'll to oppose
me. So far AS the man is concern
| must acknowledge he is perfect
gentleman. But remember he re-
presents admirably the Democrat
party and lmbibes freely all their
sentiments; 80 YOU you eau hope to
gain nothing by sustaining HIM in
thia pending conflict, therefore il
you expect to gain anything you
must support your own party in the
person of its nominee, if for no 9th.
or reason than that he 10 of your
own race. The Democrats will at
tempt to delude you by saying 1.-The
Negro can do nothing in the Lsgis
lature and you need not send him
there" but tell them that he repre-
sents my color and can vote in our
interest when called upon aud that
is for more than the Democrat nom
inee will do for us if we vote for
him. In proof of this they have al
ready voted to take away our $4,000
from the Atlanta University which
was given US by tho United States
government, hoping thereby to
doom us to eternal ignorance, and
many other such things have they
done against us simply because We
are Negroes. You should send
your own Republican nominee to
retain the $4,000; to protest against
the late school law which has result
ed in turning so many thousands OF
our children out Of the free schools;
to elamor for a school of technolo-
Icy IA the whites have supported by
the States public funds, where our
boys aud girls may be taught carp
entry, machinery, sewing, and such
other things which would serve to
make us more intelligent and indie
pendent; to try to lengthen our pub
| lie school term three to Elk and nine
months; to reform the ~Infamous

greatest organized system of misery
and curse III Georgia; and to look
after the common veal OF our whole
people, poor white and colored. |
have no tear OF the verdict you will
render on the Bird day of October.
We only beg fair count and honor
able dealing of the Democrats. |
Earnestly requeso that every Rrpub

fair count, and | further advise you
