CIIARLOTTE DAILY OBSERVER, JUNI 13, J u Jt Pnbllsbers, TOMPKINS ... wedStesdAyI jbos s, 'itei,,.;- " ron roxGUEsa, EtGimi I8- K 1 TRICT, It X. HACKKTT. , As had been mad certain in ad ' yance, the Democratic convention of " the eighth congressional district, to lewlon at Statesvllle yesterday, nom- lasted Mr. R. N. Hackett, of Wilkes, by Acclamation. The nomination was wise one and the nominee will be elected. He la a man of ability, with a, genius for politics; of political knowledge and experience; an attrac ' Uve personality, lie is a University man and In Washington will be a credit to his distrlrt and State. He will have an aggressive force on the tump this summer and fall and will make the life of Mr. K. flpencer Blackburn very unhappy If he can in duce thut elusive Individual to meet Mm In Joint debate a proposition which is more than doubtful; so much more that It Is almost certain ' that he cannot. Cnonslnesa concern ing the outcome of this content has been felt by some Democrats on ac count of the fait that Blackburn Is a mountain man and knows the habits Of thought nnd th ways of the mountain people, as It has been ex pressed. Mr. Kluttx Is not u mountain man and yet he knew the corn-it method of appeal to the mountain people and defeated Hlarkburn linndl ly. Mr. Hacked Is a mountain man. was born and ralseil ammm the hill people, and knows them as well us anybody. Nothing Is to be apprehend ed on this score. Vet Du re I spe cial reason why nil the. Democrats of the dlHtrlct should bo wlally alert and why every vote which inn be secured for the nominee of vint. rduy should be polled. There Is a good hope that the Democrats will have a majority In the next House, but this ' Is not certain and the hope may be disappointed. Jf the Republicans con trol the House Waikburn will of course contest the seat. The Repub lican majority would be predisposed to give It to him, and Ilacketr ma jority should be so large and so clean as to deprive a Republican House of any sort of excuse for unseating him. It will be clean, for Democratic, re turns In that district nre free of fraud, but the majority should be so decisive as to put the Integrity of tho election beyond the reach of quib ble and technicalities. This Is why it la Important that Mr. Hackett hould have more than a mere margin of the votes and his supporters should keep this steadily In mind un til election day. The Democrats of the district have n candidate who Is worthy of their confidence and best effort and those Republicans who think it time that encouragement of illegal practices were withdrawn, hould Join them In putting n stop to It by the election nf Mr. Hackett. A KINK TltAIV MEItVICE. Our Ashevllle correspondent said In yesterday's paper that by reason of liew trains and nw schedules on the Western North Carolina Hullroud. Ashevllle and -iirn North Carolina will have hclUr railroad service this summer than ever before. Ooodl It has not hern many yenr five or six perhaps since (lure was hut one passenger train p.n h wnv daily on that line. Now it,rre sre three and It will be found that there I H nut flclency of business f,,r all. And one of the' chief charms of the new train li that, nciordlng to th story. It Is to run on time. Thin will bo a great relief to that part of tloi traveling puMIc whhh has suffered for long from delay,-,) trains on the Western North Carolina Railroad. Our correspondent lit Ashevllle saH j the first train rolled Into that Vy on the minute.

Many of tie have often heard it aald that the earning from tha passenger trsfno of the (Teat railroads, as for Instance the Southern, do not equal the eapense of operating the pesaen gr train. , Tho mind san find some degree r, acceptance of tbl alleged truth when one sees a magnificent train of eight or ten Pullman ears pull through a town with ten or twenty passengers scattered 'through them, and remembers that the . Pullman Company does not pay for the haul Ing of it cars but that the railroad pays it for the privilege of hauling them. Tet tho thought of loss on the passenger business aeema to be negatived when we see these cars again, crowded to the roof, and the day car, sometimes practically empty but generally full. We have some thing here on thl subject that la definite, and interesting because flen nlte. The Virginia corporation com mission is engaged in a freight rate hearing at Richmond and la taking a lot of valuuble testimony. Monday It hud before It as a witness Mr. A. H. I'lunt. comptroller of the Southern Hallway, and everything hs aald was of Interest. The report Is voluminous and we could not think of reproduc ing It, but the following questions snd answers bear upon the question we are considering. Wo copy from The News Leader: How are mall and express earnings counted?" "An pueaenger earnings." t'un von tell the cost of dolne; I h fiiK'T business as separate from the cost uf the freight business?" "I tve given the matter a great oeei f time und thought and though inn ng muy he approximate, the exact mount unniil noasiblv be reached. -What Is th coat of earning one dol lar from strict Dussenger business-" For the year ending June , IWn. the cost was jo rents per passenger mile." Wh.it is ttie cost of earning the dollar when the other Incomes, such as mall and exuress. are considered? "The reports show an average of Ct cents for each nussenrer mile. "While you nre unable to estimate the passenger tiuslneas or ins nouuiern Kail way Company In Virginia, can you state the apportionment of expenses charged to that branch of the service?' "Many of the exiensos can be appor tinned, but some cannot be so handled." 'Con you pick out enough to tell whether the passenger business in Vlr Inla nays?" "From what we can tell, the expense Incurred by operating passenger trains or greater than ths inuoma received from such trains." The above being the sworn testi mony of a reputable man, 1 entitled to be accepted as truth aa to the cost of and earnings from tho South ern's passenger business. We assume that In this statement the State of Virginia Is charged with Its proportion of tho expense of ope rating the whole Houlhern Railway system, and credited with a like pro portion of the earnings both upon the ml leu ice basis, and thut the through business and the Intra-Stato business are consolidated. There would seem to bo no other way In which to arrive at anything like an accurate conclusion. PRICKS AT HOME AND ARROAD. Recently, when Representative Hep burn, of Iowa, demanded of the minor ity In the House) thut It name one article of American manufacture that Is sold more cheaply abroad than at home, he waa promptly supplied with more light and knowledgo than he wanted, loiter, Representative Ian dls, Republican. of Indiana, corn ceded the truth of the Democratic charge and defended the tariff policy which fosters this discrimination. Tim Montgomery Advertiser, adverting to (lie above recited facts, says: "(if emirse there is no sense In making n denial of what Is known now to th whole world, but we were hardly prepar ed for an oin admission of the wrung Inflicted upon American consumers In tins ptaetlee by the head ami front of the protective system In Congress, Heti alor Aldrlch, of kluxln Island. "On Halurdiiv last when Hie canal sup plies resolution was uixlwr illeuslon, Heiuitnr Alilrli It nmde bold to say. 'R Is a well known fact, uliout which there Is no ili-pule. that producers In the 1'nited Hind's and In every one of the great In ilustrlnl nations sell portions of their prislucts from llnio to lime nt a less nrlce to tieonle of other countries thHii ii.. tlnOr r..(iilur eiiHtnmcrN nl home. This f.irl which Is Well known to the people "r '"'''"' tntes. has in ''"sense Mne'iru locir iki'mi hiipii poll, y of the country ought to be with refetence to the tariff The reply to this is that never hefore have the defenders of the pe ilc live sys tem openly and pohllclv nw.wiil these facts On the contrary they have Mrlv- iui In every wnv iwissll.le to conceal from the people that the Itepul.tlin n party 'u..s i i iMiiisllile for ft slHlcm of tiisallon I. wli.h the great muss of American 'ililrin wcte hetnined in behind n tariff ill and lorced to pun hiine st prices In lie.- ot tliose cnargi'J toielgners for l,k. nrllclcs It remains to lie seen In tic i afler the Inhpillv of tll practice has I'-cn iruide plain, afler the actual 'Icitactcr hits been avowil, the voters will lo what Hcnutnr Alilih-h wrongly i I. urns they hn Ve hIiiiiiIv rtutie-nte prm sit" That Is the exact truth. The tariff stand-putters have steadily denied this dlsi rlinlnatioti attains! the home buy er In favor of the foreigner, and they only make u lrtue of necessity by moving the truth whrn they sre ciiiichl with the goods. It Is nut Irtie that the American people are familiar v,lih this discrimination and have ap proved It, nnd In all human probabil ity there will be fjulto another tale to tell when they are fully In pus- session of the facts. MR. I:iHSON"N NKW DISCOVKRIKS. Mr. Thomus A. Kdlsnn Is not, we believe, a loose or reckless talker.
