pllcatlun Is made for such powers,
whilst the privileges granted expire within a
specltled limited time, usually llve years,
thus preventing any Impecunious company
from unjustly depriving u district of tbe
bonellts of railway accommodation or simply
banging onto a charter until It is bought up
at their own price by some mere mighty
comptrollers et consels and stocks. Uxlutiug
and competing companles with any lucua

the earnings would be likely te exceed tbe
OTpenditure and yield a return en Invest

is consequently impossible, and the trallle

peting companies in insolvency is diverted
te the ene Nina lido read, with its feeders,
best devised te serve the requirements el thu
district The " needless oxpendlturo and

te open out unexplored territory rather than

Tbe flagrant and known " discrimination

Kly might be obviated by the adoption in

rata of earnings of all through trallle te the
several companies ever whose read such

tbe primary step towards lessening tbe sad

Professer Illy concludes by Having, "te our

12.) and when Ilrysen domanded tho;inenoy
for the mule from Kauilman he was told by
Kauilman that he did net recognize him lu
the transaction and rofused te pay him. This
suit was then brought.
At the conclusion or plaintiirs testimony
counsel for defendant moved for a non-suit,
en the ground that Kauilman never, knew
that Mlller was an agen ter Hry seu and it a
fraud wasporpetrated by Mllier, Kauflman
was net lnlormed or it. The court overruled
tlie motion.
The dofense was that when Mlller sold tlie
mule te Kauilman he represented lilmself
as the ewuer aud said he had bought him
near Hphrala. The price agreed upon was
flZJand Kauilman gave Miller fj In cash and
gave him credit for fl-Oeu a note Mlller
owed hlui.
The matter was submitted te the jury under

TlieBucker State Democrats.
The Democratic state convention met at
Springtiold,Illlnels,Thursday aud nominated
II. J. F. Picker Ter state treasurer aud Prer.
K. T. Oldt for superintendent of public in
struction. Tlie platform of principles
adepted by the national Democratic party at
the Chicago convention was re-allirmed.
Wk barter life for pottage ; sell true bliss
for wealth or power, rer pleasure or icnewn;
Thus, Esau-llke, our Father's blessing miss,
Then wash with fruitless tears our faded
ciewu,;
TIIK VMUIUJllTtUlt VI.ATFOBM.
lis Leading Feature Is Ilia Denunciation nl
lleth old Parties.
This Is the platform In substance adepted
by the etnte Prohibition convention t
First. That the whele system el Imports.
Hen, manufacture, saleand supply of Intoxi
cating liquors Is a state and national orlme,
and asa lundamenlal object of our party or
ganization we demand state and national
prohibition of the same.
Second That the administration of gov
ernment aud the execution or tbe laws Is
through elllcers cliosen by party, and party
must be held responsible for unfaltbrulness
In the discharge of Its duties ; thoreloro we
arraign the Hepubllcan and l)ome:ratlo par par par
tlosashavingbeen untrue te the people en
the liquor question, as conspirators against
the poeplo by the repeal or the local option
acts, against their will and pretest, and by
three successive legislatures elected by them
roJeclltiK the iiotltlens of thousands of
the host cltlzens of the commonwealth ask
ing for the submission te popular vete of an
atnoiiinent or the constitution forbidding
the drink trade
Tnlrd. That moral efforts te reclaim the
drinker and te oducate en the nature and
ollects or Intoxicants must net be relaxed,
and woapprevoof all organizations having
these objects specially in view.
Fourth. The Prohibition party Is the only
party which gives tlie citizen the oppor
tunity el voting for public elllcers net In
complicity with the liquor business, and re
moves from the voter all moral responsi
bility for the evils which the liquor system
Indicts.
Fifth. That we dopiero the fact that our
government remains a partner te this trallle
by Issuing permits te sell in tbe territories,
District or Columbia, tlie capltel buildings,
iu sbites where the tratllc is prohibited and
te fill its treasury with the ts0,0O0,OO0 rovo revo rove
tiiin from this polluted source, aud we de
mand that Congress shall by law forbid tbe
Issue or such tax receipts or permits in states,
dlxtricls or counties where the liquor traffic
is prohibited by law.
Sixth. That corporation monopollsts,onico menopollsts,onico monepollsts,onico
seeking and ollice-holding monopolists, with
the liquor trading monopolists, new rerm a
triple alliance iu the Hepubllcan and Demo
cratic iiartles for Inllueiiclng the executive,
legislative uud judicial branches or the gov
ernment Seventh. Tbat we favor the enforcement by
laws et section 7 el artlcle 17th or our state
constitution which provides against "discrim
ination in charges or facilities for transporta
tion by abatement, drawback or etherwise,"
and against "any preference in lurnishlng
cars or motive power" by transportation
companles of the state.
Klghth. That itu'wied contract and pau
per labor should be forbidden.
Ninth. American labor, skill and capital
employed In agriculture, mining, manufac
tures, comnierco and the luochauleartHshould
have first consideration and protection against
the competition of foreign labor and capital
In our taritl and ether laws. Tbe suppression
of the saloon would de mera ler the pros
perity or labor and the security of capital
than any ether romedy in the power of legis
lation. Tenth. That we believe in the Christian
Sabbath as an indispensable safeguard of our
cherished institutions, Justified as well by na
ture and reason as by religious precepL We
demand tbe strict enforcement of all laws
against its violation, and bold in abhorrence
as inimical te tbe best interests of the poeplo
the He-callod " Continental Sunday ; " that
all corporations, public and private enter
prises, and cblofaiiiengtbeiii tbedrlnk iratlic,
engaged in secularizing the day, are violators
of wholesomo laws and robbers of both health
ami rest from thelrdependeut empleyes.
Floventh. We denounce and repudiate the
se called 8iibmissm resolution or the late
Kepubliean Htate convention as deceptive and
a sn.ire te catch votes.
Twelfth. That the sectienal footings be
tween North and Seuth Hheuld be obliter
ated, but we despair be long as the Demo
cratic, and Kepublican parties survive te
rekindle old Jealousies aud revive old memo
ries. Thirteenth. That our present heterogeneous
law regulating marriage and divorce lu the
social state are a shame te our civilization,
and we demand a national law conformable
te the divine law and uniform for all states,
aud that all laws prometlvo of social purity
shall be strictly enforced.
Fourteenth. That disfranchisement as
puulshment for acts of corruption of the
votes cast at our elections, should be en
acted. The I'ull Ticket.

Flew," wero the soul-inspiring words given
