at the polls; there can be no broadening out
of the views of such a party. In the eight
months every species of legislation that
could bring power to that party had been
attempted. 1t had been sought to reorgan-
ize the judiciary system in order to put a
double set of Republican Judges on the
bench; the parliamentary rights of men,
bers had been gathered into the hands of a
brutal tyrant; the surplus in the Treasury
had been squandered in pensions and ex-
travagant legislation; $4,000 men have
been added to the pension list and there
were 100000 yet to come; a tariff bill had
been passed to add to the burdens of the
people, and now last and final effort was
being made to put the election of the peo-
PIES representatives in congress in the
hands of Federal supervisors. The session
began with the expenses of the government
at $4O0, 900, 900 and now over 100000, 900

country to run the government. This is
the situation that now confronts the peo-
pie of this land.
country to-day is a reform in the system of
taxation. The Treasury statement Just
issued shows the expenditures of last year
to be $4O0,0O0,0O0. That money comes
from the people. The United States Gov
eminent has not dollar of it's own except
what is extorted by taxation from the
people. All of it comes out OF the labor of
the people. Did you ever think of what a
million dollars is? Take a working
man who gets dollar day and it will take
him just 3,0O0,32O years to save million
OF dollars, and yet the government of the
United States takes from it's sixty million
people, -Four Hundred Millions OF dollars

paid much and the poor little Of this, but
you will find that this tax is upon the backs

our people that they intended to take the
tax off of tobacco. He (Mr. Tucker put
in an amendment to wipe out the tobacco
tax clean and clear and have no more of it.
Speaker Reed had favored this in aprevious
session, but this session it was hard to get
him to recognize member who wanted to
offer it. At last the amendment got to a
vote and every Democrat but four voted
for it and every Republican but eight voted
against it and to keep the tax on tobacco.
And vet in the National platform of 1888,
the Republican party had pledged itself to
remove the tobacco tax as "a burden to the
people.
He (Mr. Tucker) had voted for a bill to
meet the recent decision of the U. S. Su-
preme Court-the ''original package de-
cision-and the bill he had voted for gave
every State the right to decide it's internal
affairs for itself, and provided that no peo-
pie of one State shall decide for another
State what it shall do with it's internal

WORKING FOR SANTA PR.
The Right-of-Way for the Marrow Gauge
Extension All kight-Arbitration
for the Depot and shop
Grounds.

A second meeting Of citizens in further
ance of the project to give right-of-way
lands and depot and shop grounds to the
Santa Fe Southern road for it's enten
sion to Cerrillos and San Pedro wal
held yesterday afternoon at the office O.
Gen. Bartlett.

vious meeting made partial reports which
were quite satisfactory.

about Il 200, which is more than suffi.
Gent to meet the cost of right of-way
Most Of the ON ners of property through
which the preliminary survey runs have
dealt very generously in the premises,
and arbitration will have to be resorted
| to in only two instances.
The C. mmittee that had charge of the
lands feature of the work report that the
grounds Iying near the present depot, and
which it is hoped to secure for the
companv's uses, is owned largely by the
estates OF deceased people, and it will be
necessary to have the property appraised
and condemned. 1t Is understood that
the living heirs are willing to have the
matter adjusted by arbitration, and steps
to this end will be taken. 1t will cost
about $4,000 to carry out the purposes
Of the citizens. The finance committee
was increased 80 as to include the names
of Messrs. Rivenburg, Dudrow, Read,
Donoghue, A. Gold and H. B. Cart
wright, and to-day they are hard at work
rounding up every body for subscriptions.
The heading of their subscription paper
reads as follows:
