GaTit, ——— RAILRCAD-PASSES. To the Editor, of The Cldcago Tribune: 8imn: T eam glad to seo you have taken hold of tho pornicious practico of giving railrond paseos, I havo boon surprised that tho subject has not ‘been more fully discussed among the farmors, in their conventions, during the last six months, That thecustom is a groat injustice to the trav- oling community, a8 well 18 & ‘robbory of tho propriotors of tho railroads, no ono can dispute yot it has beon going on without rcbuke from, thopeoplo or pross. Leb tho outrage bo ab onco . discontinued, liko tho franking' sys- tom, and railroad fares could bo reducod to all who aro mnow compolled to pay thecost of carrying the grent nrmy of dond- Lioads. In your articlo in last Sunday’s Trinune, you aptly eny, “If A rides frea on o railroad, B has to suffor for it ; and, when any considerablo percontago of travel is gratuitous, the burden upon the rost fs on onerous ono.” Not only oditors, legislatars, Jawyers, and hotol-proprio- torsaro included in tho gront body of bemo- ficiaries, but mon of all pursuits who aro rich and ablo to pag, but&o far forget thoir duty to themeolvos and tho public o8 to practically be- como boggars, to ba supportod by tho atockhold- ors of railroads. I can scarcoly romember acago whoro a passengor hns boon carriod froo bocauso ho was too poor fo pay the vegular fare; but it is notorions that not a day passes on which largo numbors of rich mon, with whole families in many instances, aro not carried ovor the roads at tho oxpense of tho propristors. Tho practice. hoa 80 long boen going on without any concorted Jiokost ot 1o stookloldors o tho genoral pul- o; that Directors and Buperintendents have como to consider it o of thelrfunctions tocon- vort the ronds, whick they aro oxpectod to man- ago for tho pecuniary intoroats of their owners,: into elecmosynnry institutions to nccommodato the ponurious and stingy, 1t is manifostly tho .duty of Buporintondent to guard againat the in-’ trualon of tho groat army of rich’ boggars, who hiave no bottor olaim upon railronds Ehaxi thoy havo to bo lodged and fed at hotols gratis. Ihave ofton noticed, a8 I have 'besn riding over tho railronds, that it was not thoso who wore an nsnunt of povorty who prosented their passon 08 the conductor camo around, but tho well-dressed and high-fod Gradgrinds.

During this time, thoy usually move day and night, The Rio Grando, narrow and casily fordod noarly all tho yoar, opposos mo_obsta- clo to their invasion or ~ilight. Pursuit has 80 scldom been succossful, that it camo to bo belioved that thoy could not bo overtaken, This was o mistake, howover, for, within the Inst oight weeke, in nddition to the MoKenzio raid, & band pursuad a retroating squad of Indlans, and DBROUGHT BACK §CALPS &8s an evidonce that they liad killed five of thom. Thogo robbors croes the Rio Grando in compa- nies of 40 or 50; thon seatler aver the country in 8quads of 10 or 12; and, roturning, rendoz- vous at the river, and enter Moxico nnited, Thoy omo mountod, srmed with good riflos, and bows and AITOws. Horsos are their chiof, in fact almost thoir golo booty. Other stock thoy soldom care to disturb, The colerity required in their raids would mako it impossiblo for thom to got off with cattlo or shecp. 'Tho rosult is, that no ranches 'lmngl any horsos ; that is, thoy do not keop moro than 10 or 12,—which is the sanle in Toxas, whoro, if, a man hns not 60 or 60 horses, 1o doos not consider that ho has any. CGon, Brown’s rancho, 80 miles from Oorpus Christio, has beon raidod twice within tho last cl?ht wooks, In November last, in ono of thoso raids, tho Indiang carried off Domingd, n Moxi- can shephord, and Juanita Trovino, the wifo of anothor Mexican shophord. 'Theso captives havo nover beon honrd of sinco. In 1871, they attckod and robbed Ban Jora ranche, and, 3 miles from this. place, killod an Amorican and Tiis wifo, and anrrind captive thair two childran, who love nover boon heard from. Within nel year, nt one of theeo raids upon sovoral ranclios. as this Joint, thoy gt avay with 90 Lorsca. Usually thoy are not 80 successful. . THE DLOODIEST RAID was mado_oarly in lnst July, Thero wore 11 Indians and o sqnaw in the savage gang. Gon. Brown's_ranche wa tho first one struck. . Two shoplierds, both Mexicans, in swimming, dis- Covbrod tho approach of (ko forocions robbors, Nakod a8 they woro, thoyran barefoot over priokly placo and brlar, shonting to'give word at tho rauche. Thoy succceded in alarming their comipanions, -who esoaped by flight. Ono of thoso nokod mon .was captured.

Within throo o four hours, thoy mado four moro captures, every one of whom this human tigress piercod through with an un- orring arrow from hor bow. WHY DON'T THE DANCIMEN DEFEND THEMBELVES? I asked. Gon. Brown oxplained that there woro searcoly ovor moro than 10 or 12 of theso on a rancha, - Theso woro soparated, tonding difforont flocks, This gavo opportunity to drive off or capture tho men in dotail, - "ben why don't the State provide defenso ? I inquired. 'Gon. Brown eaid the _State had made tho oxporiment with two or three regimonts of .militia, but the oxponse was so groat that tho ontorpriso hind to bo abandoned. United States soldiers ware distributed at various poiuts along tha Rio Grande. Groator numbers of thom, so a5 to make o clogor chiaiu of stations, might stop theso outrages, or at loast limit their rango to withiu o few milos of tho Rio Grando. Ho snys thot fully four-fifths of tho ranchmen aro Moxican shephards, employed by the ownors of lands to tako caro of the flocks. " Fully nine- tonths of tho peoplo murdored bolong to this clasy of Moxicans. It has beon alloged that Mexican or two genorally came over with the ‘mot any trustworthy testimony to this effoct. As to the clalms laid bofore tho I .

Ho hail no doubt that thoro wais just claim against Moxico for indomnity for lossen by raids from hor terrltory, but did not Boliove it smountod to any such figiiros 08 wero in many casos laid bofore the Commission, This raiding, ho said, had boen, according to tho represontalions of old citizens, worso during tho past two yoars than ever beforo, As to tho native roughs In Toxas, ho said thoir rulo was noatly oyer, Wondora liad boen ac- complished in the last threo years in tho LSTABLISOMENT OF ORDER. ‘Three yonrs ago, murdor was rifo, and the Bherifts n!ymrl no% nttum{)fi to arrest the murdor- ors, Binoo that time, a strong Stato polics, aided aud hed disarmod tho peoplo, or practically digarmed them, 'Chis rogime had wrought mar- velously in saving life, Hundrods and hundrods of dosperadoos had been drivon from the Stato, and proporty and life wore comparatively safo, Remwey.
