A LESSON ON TARIFE.
Free Raw Materials Urgently
KeCo m m Mdea.

BALTIMORE. September 27-Appraiser
Sharretts has transmitted 10 the Secre-
tary Of the Treasury report in reply to
request for a compilation Of the best
features of the three tariff bills presented
to Congress. It recommends protection
to home industries, but urges that raw
material and goods not indigenous to the
United States should be admitted free,
especially when they do not interfere
with home industries, as wool, tin, salt
and lumber. As foreign wool must be
used TO mix with the domestic article to
compete with foreigners, it should be
free, az the high cost limits the produc-
ton of raw wool here. If it is free, the
mixed tariff of the Senate bill is
superfuous; but il the tariff on raw wool
is to remain, mixed tariff is ipdispen-
sable, and there must be pound duty
on raw wool, together with an ad
valorem duty on manufactured articles.

Charters Filed-The Denton County Farmers
Letter in Regard to Cotton Bagg1ng.
Special to the Gazette.
AUSTIN, TEX. Aug. 12.-The follow
ing charters were fled in the secretary vf
state IS office TO-DAY: The Simmons, Jr,
medicine company of Grayson; capital,
$40 600.
Gafney hardware company of Terrell ,
Kaufman county; object, general manu-
featuring business.
Texas star and soap company of Hous-
ton; capital, $40 900.
Waco tree transDlanhng company.
The following extract from the letter
of the farmers committee of Denton
county to County Attorney Bottorf :,
which was forwarded to Attorney Gen.
eral Hogg, who advised against the COM
bination, explains the position of the
farmers and the attOrney-general. The
committee, consisting of G.. w. HalfOrd ,
NJ. NJ. Williams and C.. Copenhaven,
say: Now what the farmers wish to do
is to form a combination or association
similar to those in Georgia, Alabama and
other Southern states, greeing among
themselves to use and recommending
to all cotton raisers the use or adoption
of cotton bagging such as is now manu-
featured by the Lane mills of New Or
leans and other mills as a permanent
covering for their cotton. or at least un-
til jute bagging companies reduce the
price OF bagging to what it was before
the trust was formed. But after careful
examination of the trust law enacted
by the last legislature we fear that
we can not take the desired action in the
matter without violating that law which
of course, we do not think of doing. We
also admit that in agreeing to use cotton
bagging, if the agreement is carried out :,
1t virtually bars the jute bagging from
free competition in the markets and
does restrict trade as far as
jute bagging is concerned and is
in fact a conspiracy against trade as to
iute bagging, and we justify our move
ments on the ground that they, "the
manufacturers of jute bagging, - first
conspired against US and we see no re-
dress for our grievances. Now we as
law abiding citizens do not wish to be-
come violators of the law and we have
deferred taking any action in the matter
until we could become informed on the
subject.

THE DRY BONES RATTLE.

New York Sports Worked Up Over the
Mississippi Situation.
New YORK, Aug. 12.-When news
reached the city this forenoon that the
Mississippi grand jury had found indict-
ments against the New Workers who had
taken hand in the prize fight by "aidE
ing and abetting, - there was consterna-
ton among the sports, and 1t was deemed
expedient to take some decided steps to
protect ''their rights as American cit
liens.
An evening paper states that small
cOterie of Sullivan S sympathizers and
hackers got together and figured on the
particular individuals that Governor
Lowry of Mississippi would ask Governor
Hill of New York to surrender to him.
1t was quite list they made
out and these are some of the prin-
cipal members: VIM. Muldoon, Charlie
Johnston, James WakelY, Jack Barnett,
Mike Cleary, Jack Cusick, Daniel Muir
ply, ChaIlie Henkle, William H. Ger
main, Arthur Lumley, Fred K. Willetts
and Thaddeus Rich, These gentlemen
were either directly or indirectly aiders
and ahettOrs in behalf of the great John L.
On the other side of the house the men
selected as the victims of Governor Low
rvs vengeance, aside from Jake Kill
rain, are Frank Stevenson, William E.
Harding, Mike Donovan, Denny Butler,
Richard K. Fox, Lewis B Allen, Ed
Malloran, Billy Madden, Billy o 'Brien
and Pat Sharkly. Lewis B Allen, III
the law Office of Howe & Hummel, is the
gentleman who planked down $4,000 in
the Clipper office for Kilrain.
1t WAS said late this afternoon that the
adherents of both parties had agreed to
raise flag of truce, shake hands and
see each other through. One scheme re-
ported was in effect that the
party should go South and s1rren-
der to the governor. But the scheme
most favored was to engage eminent
counsel and make a big fight before going
South. 1t was suggested that Col Robert
Ingersoll, Daniel Dougherty and Rourke
Cochran be retained in their behalf.
If such a trio could be secured to defend
them they felt well satisfied that Gov
ernor Hill, after hearing the facts, would
emphatieally refuse to honor Governor
Lowry's requisition. Efforts will prob
ably be made in twenty four hours to re-
tain these leading members OF the New
York county bar.

THE ROCK ISLAND.

The People of Wichita Falls Hopeful OF
Securing the Line, and not Without
Reason.
WICHITA FALLS, Aug. II, 1882
To the Gazette.
Messrs. Lowe and Parker, president
and vice president of the Chicago, Rock
Island and Pacific railway Crock Island
route) visited this place to-day and while
here met and talked with quite a number
of our citizens.
Those gentlemen are familiar with this
section OF country, having had survey
made to this point from Caldwell, Kan.
last year. The stakes have been driven
and the line located between those two
points. Mr.. Parker has just come
through from the terminus of the line
over land. He informs me that the
line Is being rapidly built from
Pond creek south and that King Fisher
i'll the Oklahoma country will soon be
reached. El Reno, which is located on
the North Fork of the Canadian river, is
the next point of Importance on the line.
The chances are good for the road to be
built to Reno this coming winter.
From FL Reno the line is located to
Fort Sill by way of the Washita agency,
which is in the Washita valley Ana
darko is the name of the postofice. The
Washita valley is similar to the Wich-
tia valley Of this county. The To-
Gated line of the Rock Island strikes
the head of Cache creek and runs TO the
mouth of same by way of Fort Sill.
Cache creek empties into Red river about
fifteen miles east of this place. The val
ley of the ''Cache' is a most beautiful
body of land, equally as fine as the val
ley of the Wichita river OF this county
which is saying a good deal. From the
mouth of Cashe creek the Rock Island
survey is located direct to this point
through the Wichita valley. The dis
lance from here to FL Reno, l. 7. is
about one hundred and forty miles.
The writer has been over every
foot of the ground and in my
opinion there is not to be found in the
United States a finer section of country
or one that will when settled give better
revenue to a railroad than the one lying
between here and Fort Reno. Taking
this and the cost of building the line into
consideration Ono line can be found from
Reno to any point in Texas that can be
constructed for less than one third more
than the line via Fort Sill and the Wich-
TIA dllSy IOulcD, IL 10 pl0bty SoAS u
predict that the Rock Island will build
the line they have already located.
The country southwest of here to Cisco is
also good, and the line has been staked
to Cisco. Mr. Parker, in speaking of
this to-day, expressed himself as being
well pleased with the line and country
which it runs through. The cost of the
line and country through which it passes
generally cuts quite figure in the final
location of the line. As Mr.. Parker ex-
pressed it: Railroads generally
build for business, and when
those beautiful valley and prairie
lands are settled with farmers
there will be business not only for one
railroad but for several.
Messrs. Lowe and Parker left here this
evening with their special for Colorado.
Two gentlemen (capitalists) from
Southern Texas have Just purchased
three choice business lots, paying for
same $500. They will erect fine bust
ness block onsthe property this fall.
