Wh uiuld wo not also have cheap Iran : mrtation ? Herald. This i what Iho people of Nobrask ml the producers of the wcwt propos .o . find out. Why , with railroads BO lly constructed and inngiiiflcontl ( ( nipped at the public expense , ei owed with princely gifts of lam rom the people and heavy aubaidic nun the governments ohould not tli liippors of this country enjoy chcn importation ? Can Dr. Millei whoso paper lives by the grace and fi or of Union Pacific job-worlc , infori 3 ? Why cannot the west cnjo heap transportation as well i ho east , whoso railroads were bui vith private capital and which at rati OCH than half of Ihoso charged 1 : vcstern monopolicn have aromed the mtrons to a demand for goyornmei restrietion of Iheir extortions and di criminations against ( shippers. One reason why Nebraska has 111 iid cheap tr.insporlation on its rai roadn is because the people of tli state have not tuk"ii advantage of tl remedy which the constitution h iliiced in their hands. For six yen ifter thu ratification of an in&trumo vhich gave them the power to rcgula the monopolies they neglected apply its provisions to the abuses corporations within the atato. Eve election , loc.il or general , was cr ruptod by monopoly interforonc every convention was packed wi corporation henchmen , and every Ic inlature wai inlluenced by the tin on and bribes of Iho railroad manngoi : \t the last session of the Icgislatu the first Htui > was taken , through tl Doaue law , towards aocuring chisi nJ fair transportation for all ahippe in Nebraska. The passage the Donnu law was the lii indication on thu part of t producers of this utiito that they we determined to secure for Nobroa what Illinois and Wisconsin had pi viously accomplished. That law , v acted notwitliHtnnding the combin opposition of thu monopolies , utan to-day as an earnest of future ai more thorough legislation on thutrai portr.tinn question. Whutovor dofoi iheru may bo in its operation must remedied by the next legislate which will bo still more iiu pendent of monopoly cent than the last. The producers Nebraska uro determined discover why they cannot have die traniportation , and they propose bring every means within th power to thu solution of a question vital to their interests. In the me : time , if the br.ns collared editor the lltrahl knows of any reason , him speak it out or forever hold 1 peace. THEIIB nocina to bo very ntu grounds why the Hnwuiianreciproc treaty should bo abolished by congrct as FIIOJI as poosiblo. Tlio prcts o the Pacific const have very clearl shown thai this treaty has been tli means of enriching only a few pluntei in the Handv/icU islands nml a eugr pool in San Fiancieco , while it h : cost the government over a million < dollars a year in customs. It claimed that the refiners have agree to pay , and do annually pay , to tli Pacific railroad ( built with the publi money ) a subsidy of $100,000 to kcc om'orn ' sugars out of their market That the nndutiablo sugars of tl Sandwich islands arc sold in Ka Francisco at eastern prices with tli enormous freights of $2 pur 1C pounds addud. That by a secret undo : standing between the ciste.in an wcfltern pools , and the payment < largo additional minis to the railroad , no competition is permitted to tak place between Hawaiian sugars at mittod free and Mioso brought in i full rates in thu eastern ports. Tli treaty ia a boon only to the rcfinen who have made immciiHo fortunes I means of it ; but it has not dimtniahu the eost of sugar to consumers an ; whcro in the United States. It found also that the plantations in tli Sandwich islands are cultivated li aorvilo labor , or nomothing nearl akin to it under the contract nystcn The Chicago Tribune Bays : "Wit the exception of the Ueasomor stci mill pool , the United Slates has novc known a greater monopoly Ihan the which has boon organised by the suga ring. It may be doubted whelhc any civili/.nd nation since the time c Elizabeth ban given to private i"d viduals such complete control of ai tides of general consumption amnn the people as thu Itossomor Sle < company and the Sugar Refiners' Ai sociation now enjoy of Ihoirrrapectiv commodities in Iho United States.

OnKVKNM : is groaning over Iho o : irlatiotm of the Union Pacific cot uonopoly which haa recently bee intting Iho sunows upon that cib I'ho Cheyenne Sun gives the fncti which call for no comment , as followi Although coal is an abundant articl 'n thu country west and Bouth of ui within and outside of the territory 3hoyenno ia entirely dependent upo > no source of supply , and that it judging from the past , inconvenientl uncurtain. Some time ago aouthcr coal was upon our local markul , boin carried by the railroad company froi Moulder to this eily at a freight rate ( JL'.OO per ton , and thus affording 'air profit for handling lore at mnrkot piiccs.

The treigl rnle on coal from Doulder lo Denvo 35 milcH , is 80 cents per ton ; fro Koulder to Cheyenne , distance 1 iniles , it is $4.00. The discriminati ( is prohibitory , and in consequence U [ utblic must draw all their fuel Bupil [ through the one office whim it c : be had.

They neein to bo u usually bold. A few days ago a ti lar o black boar was found in thelm pen of Jacob Lomiu , living near Tin- wood , a little village in Iho wild lov of Ilurdenberg , Ulster County. 1 proved to bo an ugly customer , to and there waa a lively light before ! was caught. Washington Gesso , member of the notediosso liear-lim ing family , succeeded in capturing fo fine boars a few duyn ago , nearly ono titnu , not far from his homo Bhandakcn. lie sold the pelts at good round price , and the meat hod tribulcd among his neighbors. Fo bears are usually counted a lair et son's work for ono hunter , as t nkins are valuable , and the c.\rcu finds a roidy market. The most desperate encounter wi Bruin that occurred in this region f many a year took place in thu Sha daken Mountains on Monday of hi week. Washington .lux of Shnndako after a lonv , weary tramp , made t more disheartening by thu lack of ai appearance of game , was about to i trace his steps homeward , llosuddc ly hoard a rushing of twigs and undc brush. Ho was now far away fro any settlement. Peering through t forest ho soon saw a half-grown blu bear , which in a few moments mo was joined by three others fine , aha gy cubs. They had all emerged fro a dense thicket into a partial bit clearing on another border of whi the hunter was concealed. Althoui a long distance away , ho leveled 1 gun and fired. One of the cubs f dead. A moment after , with the oth chamber of his gun , he brought do\ another boar , llo then attempted reload his piece , but the other c r\ged animals having by this time d covered his hiding-placu , now poiinc upon the luuter. The struggle th ensued is described by the hunter moat terrific indeed. Ono of the HI mula tried to chow up the hunto left shoulder , mangling it badly , u while thia was going on , ho in a nag to plant his bowie in a vital spot in t other's breast. The blood spurt over him , but the aiiima' ' flunk at 1 feet. The remaining bear , bowovc gave him a haul tussle , but ho final conquered him nlso. Ho then snya 1 was nearer dead than alive , but inn aged after awhile to reload his gun ar bandage his throat as best ho coitli Ho then started toward homo , buthr not proceeded far when , with a dca cuing roar , the enraged mother sprai acrosH his nath , but ho was now 01 ablr d tn bring the infuriated beast I the ground by a heavy charge of bucl shot , llo finished the work of deal with the other barrel of his quit , nil then returned homo in triumph f ( aid in bringing his game to the aotlli moiil.
