rate except on certain commodities in

Well, says the old republican, it proves
that you Populists are responsible Tor
the defeat of railroad legislation anyhow,
because you did not pass our bill through
the senate. No, it don't, replies the Pop
ulist, we substituted a bill copied after
the Iowa law also, and in it we named
the highest rate Of freight that we
thought the people Of Kansas ought to
pay, and let me tell you, my republican
neighbor, how that would have reduced
the freight out here in Rice county. II
would have reduced the first class rate
to Lyons 10 cents per hundred; second
class, Is cents; third class, II cents
fourth class, 1316 cents; fifth class, 151s
cents; class A, II cents. 1t would have
reduced the freight on wheat to Kansas
City 1-5 cents per hundred. 1t would
have reduced the rate on lumber from
Kansas City to Lyons 81 cents pei
hundred. Well, says the old republican
Conkling says you were afraid to leave
the election of the commissioners to the
people. No, we were not, replied the
Populist; section 16 Of our bill provides
for the election Of the commissioners by
the people, and il our bill had been
passed, Rice county could have had the
privilege Of voting for railroad com
missioner next November. Well, says
the old republican, it was you PopulistG
fault anyway that we did not get any
railroad legislation; Conkling says yor

"EDIToR Recommendations personal
comments, in reply to my freight article
in last Tuesdays issue, merit brief re-
ply. You have been cussed for years
for staying by me. I have no doubt it
will be great relief to be sbsolved from
further allegiance and the resultant
kicking, which it appears an honest de-
sire on my part for relief from freight dis
ordinations has brought about. l am
very sorry for the annoyance caused you
in years gone by; nothing hurts me 30
much as to have my friends suffer on my
account. And as you leave it to be in
ferred that I have never returned the
favor Of your support by doing anything
for you IN return, it does seem as though
/ should permit you to ridicule me for
my views on this railroad question in re-
turn for what you have done for me in
years gone by. The Importance Of this
question to the people is 80 great, how
ever, that I cannot consent TO permit
you to ridicule me out of court without re-
ply, at the expense of appearing un.
grateful.
"Poor Taylor and poor readers you
say. Better save your sympathy. Your
readers who do not want to know the
facts can skip the article and so are in
no need Of sympathy. And really for
myself cannot consent to accept 1t and
continue the reason for the metsphorical
kicking of which you now complain.
You say this whole matter Of railroad
legislation looks extremely simple. That
the house passed a railroad bill and the
senate rejected 1T instead Of trying to
strengthen it, The facts are the senate
tried to strengthen it by substituting
what they believed to be constitutional,
and certain and fixed reduction to the
people, for one that they believed to be
unconstitutional, and uncertain of any
reduction except to the interior jobbers
And did they not show a disposition To
treat the matter in business manner

at issue except that Geo. T. Anthony and
VIM. Mitchell should be- the rste-mak.

SOME EXCELLENT COMEDY.

The Wilfred Clark 90. in ''Tit-cor-Tet''
Before Fine Audience.
Those who witnessed WilEred Clarke's Dor
formance last night were more than repaid.
They saw an excellent comedy, presented
by an excellent company.
Mr.. Clarke himself is star Of remarkable
ability and, although only little OYER
20 years old, he ranks as leader
among the,foremost comedians. His presen-
tation f"Tit-for-Tat"was surprise to those
who saw it, for in Mr.. Clarke they saw an
exponent OF a high class OF comedy such as
only actors like Robson, jefferson and Reeda
have given in this section.
The surprise Of the whole audience
was that such company could be playing
at popular prices.
"Tit-for-Tat" is as good as "Jane" and
q good many other comedies for which
Savannahians paid regular prices and the
company presenting it is fully capable Of
the work, especially the ladies, Miss Ford,
Miss Knowles and Miss Kenny.
The performance was highly artistic
one in every respect. Not only has Man
ager johnson given great show fer the
week at popular prices, but every one who
attends is given chance at SlG0 in gold to
be drawn for on Saturday night.
Matinee to-day at 2:30 o'clock
Mr. Clarke and his company will present
a double bill at the matinee to-day, Sweet
hearts" and "Paul Pry,n and at night my
Wife's Husband" Chances at the 800 are
given away at every performance. The
matinee prices will be rs cents to all parts
OF house.

Henry Crawford, Esq. attorney for the

is also connected with the Terminal, arrived
in the city last night and are stopping at

Their appearance in the city Just at the
present time, when the case OF the Savan-
nah and Western railroad is to come up
before Judge Pardee to-day, aud the fact
that other Central railroad litigation is In
progress, causes some speculation as to what
are their intentions or what part they ex,
pect to take in the suits now in progress.
Whatever may be their intentions it is
not understood how they can figure in the
litigation now in progress, but it is known
that the Terminal owns 5000 shares Of
Central railroad stock, and Terminal Off
Gals stated some time ago that that corpo-
ration would figure In the reconstruction of
Of the Central railroad property.
