The Wadsworth dispatch. [volume] (Wadsworth, Nev.) 1892-1899, 1898-11-08

Pettlgrew, Harris and others, VINO are
the implacable enemies OF the railroad,
prepared their own bill and passed it
which obtained for the Government
every dollar that the railroad company
owed the Government. These Senators
considered that the bill they drew pro-
tected the Government in every partic-
ular and merited their votes, and ii
it had not, do you think such men as
Morgan, White, Pettigrew and Harris
would have given it their support? 1t
is far-fetched indeed to say that there
was any relation between the tariff bill
and the funding bill which latter bill
did not pass until q year afterwards.
Perhaps Chartz here sees that the fund
ing bill was a part of the tariff bill, but
for the life of us We cannot see how the
relation exists, especially when the gov
eminent got everything it demanded and
the railroad lost everything it tried to
win.
"How is it that Stewart never men
toned the fact that Nevada wants
a terminal point on the line of the
G. P"
Because Congress has nothing to do
with the question. Congress has no
more jurisdiction wei making terminal
points for private corporations than the
man in the moon, or our W wise
Chartz." 1t is a matter lying within
the discretion of the railroad company.
No man in Nevada is more anxious to
have a terminal point in this State than
Senator Stewart, and no man is more
likely to secure one than is the Senator.
1t is dollars to doughnuts that he will
get such a point long before any of those
who are now t~raducing him for not hav-
ing succeeded in accomplishing this OBJ
ject make ever a slight effort to assist
him.
Chartz has a large Imagination. He
imagines one man can 10Y the earth.
1t is safe to say, however, that as long as
the world lasts such men as Chartz re-
presents would never obtain q terminal
point or any other advantage for the
people of Nevada. They are the men
who supply the wind, while men like
Senator Stewart perform the work!
Senator'S Jones and Stewart did right In
voting on the tariff bill TO protect the
laboring men Of this country and to keep
the wage at the highest point. Further
more people in Wadsworth and Church.
ill have small fortunes in soda and
borax works. The tariff on them and
allied products is a godsend to them.
For weeks there was a sign on our
Main street "Men Wanted" and that
tariff put the sign there. There are
many more benefits Nevada derives but
as we said the speakers against Stewart
are either ignorant,or they willfully lie..or
suppress the real truth. Take the tariff
on lumber and such and ask the Verdi
people what an immense business it has
given them, how it has kept their mills
and lumber camps going day and night
and has brought employment, happiness
and prosperity to every home in that
beautiful little village.
To Wadsworth people this
same tariff did more to hold
up and increase business on
the railroad than any other
single factor.
Since the tariff bill passed every
thinking man in this town knows bust
ness has been rushing, times have been
good, money easy. This tariff, mind you,
has enabled the California fruit a to
ship and the carrying oft gives our peo-
pie employment. We cannot continue
in this showing for lack of space, but We
ask you to Judge as to whether Chartz is
right, whether he Is ignorant, whether
he willfully lies, whether he suppresses
the vital truth, whether he talks for
hire, whether it is malice or what
potent power does cause him to endeavor
to mislead you. We are satisfied your
verdict will be hearty unanimous accord
that Senator Stewards tariff vote was
for our very best interests. Don't for
get that Chartz is looking out for Chartz
and Chartz's master and wouldn't give
the sweat off his hatband to help you.
Don't be influenced by the juggle Of
sophistry or be a fly in the bunghole o.
a molasses barrel.
