But one fast train a week, known as
the Sunset Limited" is now being run
between New Orleans and the Pacific

Result of an Autopsy Held Upon the
Body of n Mexican Journalist.
CITY OF MEXICo, Aug. 5.-An autopsy
has been held upon the body of Jesus
Olmosy Contros, the Congressman and
Journalist. who was assassinated in
Puebla. 1t revealed the fact that he had
been stabbed forty-two times in the
chest, and would probably have been
stabbed oftener had not one of the dag
gers been broken, the blade remaining
imbedded in the muscles.
The heart was travelsed twice by a
weapon welded by very strong hand
and with sure aim. The other stabs might
apparently have been done by blind
men, so wild was their direction.
Nothing at present is known as to the
author of the deed, but indications show
clearly that 1t was an act of private
vengeance, done by men who so timed
their crime as to elude the vigilance OF
two policemen who were in the neigh
borhood Of the street when the body was
found.
Both officers have declared that they
neither saw nor heard anything unusual
during the night.

SENATOR CULLoM says the business of
a statesman is to look after the interests
of the entire country. Very good. The
interests of the east have been very
carefully looked after by statesmen of
the Cullom school for many years. 1t is
about time now that they turn their at
tention to the west. In doing this, how
ever, it is proper that they permit the
west to say what it wants, as is invariably
done in the east. It will be remembered
that in adjusting the tariff, eastern peo-
pie alone have always been called upon
to make their wishes known.

SENATOR CULLoM expresses himself as
favoring a compromise on the silver
question There can be no compromise
without surrender We have been try
ing compromises for years and every one
has proved worse than the previous one
for silver and each time the sound
money" advocates have attempted to
place the blame of failure on silver itself.
The only way to remonetize silver is to
remonetize it Anything else is worse
than nothing. Friends of the white
metal should beware of compromises
They are willing to concede to gold all
its rights of coinage. they are justified in
standing for the same consideration for
the silver. Let the gold men have their
gold and let the silver men have their
silver. This government was not formed
for the exclusive benefit of the east;
neither have eastern money kings any
call to tell US of the west what we want
or need. They of the east have no
monopoly of knowledge or information
concerning the currency question if they
have monopoly of the currency itself
The few strikers they have in the west,
like Senator Cullom, are but wasting
their time in trying to instill gold-bug
ideas into western minds. Our people
know too much to be duped any longer.
