Railways in the United S:ates

The past year has been one OF extraordinary
activity, and the national energy is shown in no.
thing more strongly than in railway construction.
We present the following comparative statement
of these works on January lst:
1851. 1852 1883. 1854
Miles in operation:-
10,2S7 1i,565 1887 1871
Miles in construction
10;o92 1l,22s 1C.l13 12,s9s
Capital invested
S306.G07,95c 335, ,i5o.sis los, 1G3 100 sos s0ss
This statement Of cost is gathered as far as poss-
bic from the reports of different companies end
from fairly based estimates. We have but little
doubt that it is understated, however, in amount.
especially regarding those works in progress o.
construction. We think that some ten of fifteen
millions of dollars could be safely added and still
keep within the total sum now invested in rail-
way property in the United States Taking the
niles finished and dividing the gross cost as given
above, it would make tie roads cost fraction
over S2S, 900 per mile-an extremely moderate
sum it must be allowed. The .ollowing vii! show
the number Of miles opened du-;ng the past three
years:

capped defeat at the last election, and John
Kezar of Parsonsfeld, and Alexander Junk.
ins of Berwick, both new men, were put in
nomination for the State Senate, at tie
County Convention of the Nebraska de.
mocracy, held at Alfred The 18th inst
Thomas's exploits in defeating an organize.
ton of the government, for three weeks last
year, at an expense Of some $4,000, though
forgotten by the convention, may probably
be remembered by the people, when they
come to vote. We were tod by democrats
Of respectable standing, that Thomas had
agreed to decline after being re.nominated
but nothing Of the kind was done. Thomas
has had one taste Of the " dulees eruria," and
his appetite has not probably abated, though
the public taste for him may be chan. ed
John Kezar was in The Legislature Of 1853,
and voted against the amendments to the
Maine Law, and Mr.. Junkins is said to be
very liberal in his tendencies. Elisha Bodwell
was nominated for County Commissioner,
aid DR.. Gilman Bennett for County Trea,.
urer.
