AMONG THE RAILWAYS.
Exaggerated Reports of the Uvalde
Washouts-Other News.

Washouts-other News.
When a reporter for the LIGHT
called at the Southern Pacific depot
last evening he was met by Mr.. d..
T. Forbes, superintendent Of the
San Antonio division. "I'd like to
know what the idea of the San An
tonic correspondents is to send out
such exaggerated reports as in the
Uvalde washouts. The dispatches
in the New Orleans and st. Louis
papers state that it will require
seven weeks to repair the damages,
so that we can run trains. Why,
we can build a whole railroad in
that time. Another ridiculous re-
port is that the damages will
amount to a million dollars, and
some papers even have 1t a mil
lion and a half. OF course such
reportsIhurt us. Business men and
the travelling public read reports
that the Southern will be
unable to run trains west Of San
Antonio for W. weeks and
naturally they believe it. Now,
what merchant is going to send
his goods over u road when he
reads such reports? He doesn't want
to have his goods delayed seven
weeks If he a help it. We ran
trains west of here three days after
the washout."

side tearing away considerable Of

ls this difference OF S7OO?

ls this difference OF S1OO?
Let ns see how it Is with the wheat
raiser. Take 1000 bushels of wheat as
the average crop. In 1872, the year before
silver was demonetized. wheat was worth
from SLIGO to S2.1O per bushel. The 1000
bushels at $1.75 in 1892 would have
netted the farmer Sl,750. Today the
price OF it is 80 cents per bushel, and the
1000 bushels bring the farmer $500. He
gets $l,250 less for his wheat crop In
1894 than he did in 1872. Why 10 this?
What is it that robs the farmer of this
S1,25O? Is it the tariff? From the above
facts it will be seen that the cotton
farmer paiG $1,000 taritf in 1872 and re-
celved $1,000 for his cotton CROP now in
the year 1894 be pays S62.49, just 60 cents
less than in 1872, and receives $500 for
bis crop, loss Of S7OO.
The wheat farmer paying the amount
OF tariff as above, received S1,75O for his
crop in 1872, now he received $500, loss
of 81 ,25O.
In other words the farmers have been
fighting over that S2l.l2. tariff, the differ
ence to them between the democrats and
republicans on that question, while the
money power has stealthily stepped in
and robbed the cotton raiser. The money
question is as much above the tariff
question as 500 is above s21.12, and
to the wheat raiser as $3.50 is above
S2112.
When the farmers of this country
study the financial question. and realize
how they have been robbed by demone-
tization of silver and the obstruction of
the greenbacke, there will be but one
issue. and that will be the money ques-
tlon'

From Weunesdav's Daily.

The case against John Traill, for
cruelty to hunting dogs left in his poss-
ession, was resumed this morning in
justice court. The defendant was re-
leased on his own recognizance, and the
case held over to the January term
of the district court no further
examination of witnesses being
made. There was some hesitancy,
on the part of the state. yesterday. in
taking up the case, a continuation being
desired, but owing to the distance which
some of the witnesses for the defense
have to travel, two We're examined.
Interest is being taken IN the case out
side of jamestown. as several dispatches
from dog owners have been received TO-
day. One from J. E, McWllliams OF St.
Paul said to turn his dog over to the care
of J. J. Roper. Another from Mr..
Teal of Minneapolis said that $4,000
would not buy his dog and urged that
the prosecution be continued, and good
care of the animal taken. Trail has evl-
IDENTIFY come into the charge OF num-
ber OF valuable dogs, and this is the first
intimation the owners have had of their
treatment. The fact OF the arrest and
trial OF Trail has evidently found it's
way to the eastern papers, and the atten-
tion of dog owners attracted thereby.
Today suit was begun in the district
court by Trail against Mrs Bartholomew
to recover $1,000 damages. alleged to
have been caused by the breaking up OF
his business. His attorney is E. NJ. San
ford. Rep'evin papers have also been
made out, but not yet served, for the re-
covery of the dogs, which were temper.
arily taken to the hospital for proper
care yesterday. Mrs. Bartholomews &C
tlons in this matter are warmly approved
by all the members of the society which
she represents, and by the humane pub
lie generally.

MONEY QUESTION vs.. TARIFF
The Bogus Issue That The
People Have Been Fight
ing Over.
The InSignificance Of The
Tariff as it Affects
Prices.

For generations the politicians OF this
country have agreed in almost every
campaign that the tariff should be the
issue. They have always found it a con-
venient bone OF contention over which
the masses would easily divide. 1t is a
question very complex to the average
voter. It is splendid issue upon which
to appeal to sectionalism and arouse
party spirit. The leaders of the demo-
cratic and republican parties have mu-
tually agreed for so long that the tariff
was the great issue in American politics,
that the average voter 10 these parties
without seriously considering the matter
and without any study or investigation
upon his part, has settled down to the
idea that the tariff is really the Issue.
The politicians have one half the people
attributing all their grievances to the
fact that the tariff is too high and the
other half to the fact that the tariff is
too low.
The democratic campaign committee
has just gotten out u campaign book OF
246 pages in which it devotes twelve
lines, or one hundred and eighty words,
to the silver question. Ii we are TO Judge
from what is nere said on the subject, as
to the policy of the democratic party, we
are at a loss to understand how any
honest free coinage man can have the
faintest hope of ever getting free coinage
through the democratic party. On the
entire financial question this campaign
book contains five pages, while 1t devotes
one hundred and eleven pages to the
tariff, so it IS very plain that the demo
Gratis are going to do everything possible
to force the tariff to the front and try to
ignore the financial question altogether.
The republicans are at work on the same
inc, and are delighted that they can
fight over the same old ground. There
are great many honest democrats and
republicans who candidly believe that
the tariff is the great issue. For the
benefit Of all such We have undertaken
10 this article to prove the great over
shadowing question in American politics
is the financial question, and that the
tariff is secondary ID every particular.
The following table shows the amount
Of tariff paid by the average farmer on
the necessaries of life which be buys each
year. 1t shows the amount he would
pay under the tariff law Of 1861, the Nc
Kinley law. and the present democratic
law:
