New York, October 12-The Evening Posts London financial cablegram:
 The stock markets here opened steady today, but quickly gave way for lack of support and the tone was generally dull and Iifeless. Americans were exception ally good, New York buying and prices closed quiet at the best.
 Kaffirs were easier on German realiza- tions. Insurance risks on securities are shipped at Lloyds against the war with France at 10 guineas per cent to the end of the year. There are really but few betting transactions and Lloyds were so mistaken in their view as to the outbreak of the Spanish-American war that they are now inclined to quote high rates.

a nice little town. The people, the
town and the little railroad were
prosperous. 1t soon grew rich
enough to own two locomotives, and
with these it made frequent trips
from one terminus to the other.and
the people found no fault whatever
with either the service rendered or
the rates. About this time Texas,
like all other southern states. be.
gan to Cypress the roads. Damage
suits piled up against the little ore
under discussion. Under state
law the rates of the road were cut
nearly in half, and the result was
that at the end of about three years
this road had been ruined. One of
the locomotives and some of the
rolling stock not being entirely paid
for were taken back by the credit
ors. Trains were irregular. The
receipts were not enough to enable
the owners to keep the track and
cars in good condition. The sala-
ries paid were so small the com Pc
tent help sought employment else
where. About this time the few
owners of the road, men who lived
in the vicinity, met and decided to
abandon the road altogether, and it
was so nearly abandoned that only
two trains a week were run. About
this time the people living along
the line, having heard of the inten-
ton of the owners to give the road
up and abandon the trains, carried
the case into the Texas state courts
in an attempt to compel the owners
Of the road TO put on daily trains

would be losing money to do so
One of the lower courts did actual

be compelled to continue to do so |
regardless Of the fact that |
the owners would be losing mouey |
on every train that was run. The !
law regulated" this road and to
Ill intents and purposes confscated
It by cutting the rates. In that
way the owners of the road lost
what it cost them, but that was a

UNFRIENDLY RAILROAD
LEGISLATION.


al candidates for Governor on th'
democratic ticket. One Of the can
didates is named Robert Bernel
and his only platform is, "Damr
the Railroads" Here is an article
from the Atlanta Dictator that is
worth reading, in Idaho as well a:
in Georgia.
In our arguments showing why
the civil court system should be
abolished we have in previous is
sues shown the direct injury they
infict upon the people Of this coun-
try. The principal item of this
direct injury is the fact that under
the system as it exists today. it
costs the people of county and
the litigants on aA average five
dollars to render a judgment of one
dollar, then after the judgment has
been rendered twenty one out Of
twenty two verdicts are never en-
forced, consequently are utterly
worthless. But the indirect injury
done by them is simply incalcul
able and far exceeds their direct
cost. To get an idea as to how this
indirect injury is done we will use
the following illustration. There
are certain counties in Georgia in
which enormous quantities of wa
termeJons are raised. Farms have
been prepared and houses con-
structed for the especial uses Of this
crop. Now suppose the civil law
should, as it does in thousands of
oIher lines of industry, put a tax
of fifty dollars on every acre of
watermelons raised in that coun-
ty. Last year probably a thous-
and acres had been planted in that
county, but if the year after a law
of that kind went into effect, there |
would probably not be more than
say, two acres planted. On these
two acres the county would collect
a hundred dollars in taxes, but you
readily see the harm done by col
lecting it in this way. For the
sake of the hundred dollars col
lected under such form OF legis-
latioD, the industry of whole
is ruined, thousands OF Ia
Oorers deprived of work, hundreds
If farms rendered unproductive
md idle. 1t is not the hundred
lollars that does the harm, but it
S the legislation attending the col
ection of it. The illustration cited
lbove will give you an idea of how
he railroads of this country and
his state are oppressed. The di-
ect injury inflicted upon them by
is enormous, but is in
to the indirect injury
hat the people impose upon them
elves by unjust railroad legisla-
ion. In fact all railroad or anv =.
ther form OF "class" legislation is
Lnjust, and the direct injury in
-icted thereby upon the corpora
ion is as nothing when compared
D the far-reaching harm done the
eople. One of the most conspicu
US examples OF the truth of this
; as follows: Some years ago the :
tate of Texas granted a charter
} a railroad to be built from the
lain line of one of the great sys-
Ems to a snail hamlet on the gulf
past. The road was soon cOmplet-
/ and not over twenty miles long. }
eople moved to and settled on the .
ne of road, opened up farms and =
her industries, and in a short L

JUDGE MAGU|RE
 TALKS AT TULARE ss He Receives but a Weak
 Reception. CROWD NOT A LARGE ONE NO ENTHUSIASM SUCH AS
 GREETs GAGE.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

TULARE, Sept. 29.-James G. Mcguire, fusion candidate for Cover nor, addressed the people of Tulare to- day. The speaker arrived on the morn ing train, and was met by delegation of local fusionists, headed by the Tu- lare Silver band, and escorted to the parlors of t,-e Central Hotel, where an informal reception was held. With MT. Mcguire were T. w. Naples, candidate for Controller, and E. L. Hutchison, candidate for Lieutenant Governor.
 Chairman c. L. Russell opened the meeting. Referring to Mcguire as the head of the anti-railroad forces" he said:
 James G. Mcguire cannot be tracked by the quarters Huntington has dropped"
 He then introduced him as "The next Governor of California The crowd, which was not very large and made up mainly of women, was evidently in sympathy with the speaker, and cheered Justify. s.
 The speech was disjointed and dis connected. MT. Mcguire confined him. self to no one issue of the campaign. He. charged the Southern Pacific Com pany with the management of the Re
  say of the "oligarchy of wealth. of monopoly and the concentrated pow CT of privilege" He referred to Bryan as; that matchless American and sec ond Thomas Jefferson" and to Gage as my distinguished opponent"
 Touching upon the war with Spain, MT. Mcguire denied the assertion that it was a Republican war, and stated that the neglect to provide food and medicines for soldiers in camp was a chapter of shame" Said he:
 More deaths have occurred infcarnp than in the entire struggle, including the loss of the men on the battle-ship Maine.'
 He spoke briefly of the Pacific rail- road debts, the war revenue and the single tax.
 "The intellectual part of the cam paign," said MT. Mcguire, Ifs conduct ed by the Southern Pacific Railroad Company or under it's direction"
 The meeting was not in any sense a brilliant reception either in numbers or enthusiasm. The speaker left for Visalia at 4 o'clock.

Upon the subject of Hawaii the Republican platform is ex- ultant, while the Democratic Is omin- ously silent; but they demand the con struction of the Nicaragua canal The Republican calls for the enforcement of the act of Congress passed at its last session for the collection of the indebt- edness due from the Central and West ern Pacific railroads, and declare in fa- yor of the prompt enforcembent of the law in case of default in the payments provided for in that act. The Demo- cratic platform favors the immediate foreclosure of the Government liens upon these roads, and denounces the refunding measure passed by the unanimous vote of the Senate and as amended by MT. Barham of California and passed by the House; but they commend the appropria- tion for the improvement of San Pedro harbor- Both make the. usual declara- tions with referenceN to the protection of labor.

Both demand that the products of prison labor in other States be not permitted to be sold in any other State than that of their manu- facture.

Thomas Jefferson was indeed great Re- publican. ,-It was he who first gave to a political party in the United States that great name. He brought with him from France, where he had been Minister and Envoy of the United States, succeeding Benjamin Franklin. He was a magnifi- cent specimen of manhood, of enormous physical proportions, with face whose beautiful sublimity drew to itself the ad- miration of all who beheld it. He was a profound student, simple in his manners, and ahhoring all titles of any kind He refused as President to be addressed as ..Excellency, or "Honorable," or even Mister" He inaugurated the present method of addressing the executive head of the nation as Thomas Jefferson, Pres ident of the United States There have been few greater men or grander names than that borne by Thomas Jefferson,

I made speech there to a portion of a meet ing consisting of 10000 of San Francisco's $ best citizens It was a meeting opened with prayer, by the Rev. Dr. Platt of Trinity Episcopal Church, and at the close of my remarks, in which there was not one infiammatory sentence, or one soli-- tary incftation to mob violence, l used the following language:
 Major Smiley has said that there was at one time in the breasts of the people Of California certain rude and heroic wreak vengeance upon the spot, but we live in a different time and for higher and nobler purposes. The people of San Francisco when they speak tonight, will test to the world No act of violence nor evil thoughts shall live in our hearts in tut pTSSeuC5 Cl the QedQ., we come to speak of him, to say to the world how much we loved him; and to all mankind that the calumntes that have gone forth sown on the, wind like the fallen leaves shadow of a shade in the hearts of the people of San Francisco which affects that mans memory. That Is what this meeting is for: that is what we are all here for, and when we go to our homes, when we bear away the memory of this meeting 1t will have mingled with 1t noth- worthy the citizen. the man and the friend we have lost, and we shall act as befits men who feel they are speaking not to themselves but to civilization"
 There was never at any time in that meeting an incitation to mob violence or disposition toward it. Where MT. Ma guire was on that great night l do not know, nor do I care, for there was never MT. Ralston was concerned, any need for MT. Mcguire, in civilians dress or in mar
 dt make alEas thIs asa sne bseause psae am willing to be held up even by so poor and uncorroborated authority as Judge Maguire, as a mobocrat, and I am unwill- ing that even by misrepresentation he should succeed for a moment in tarring me with the same brush with which he has been so justly bespattered.
 Before closing General Barnes re- viewed the Populist platform and ad- dressed many of his remarks to the Sil- yer RepuDlcanS. In this connection the name of William Mckinley was mentioned. 1t was. the signal for great applause. Five thousand people listened to the masterly appeals to the patriot ism of Democrats and Silver Repub- licans. The meeting closed with ring ing cheers for the orator, for Henry T. Gage, the next Governor, and for the whole ticket.
 Gage and Barnes will leave to-mor- row, to arrive in San Francisco Satur- day morning.
