Protest against the EsiIE for lsse
sale OF she Hahn Lime.

@aEe OF aAc AkAEsa ElSEaS.
The undersigned place on the Journal OF the
Senate the reasons for voting against the pas
sage Of the House bill No S52, reprint on
Senate file 40. 1927 entitled ''An Act for the
sale Of the Main Line Of the Public Works"
lst. Because, although protesting TO offer the
Main Line to the highest bidder, the bill dis
eliminates so largely in the conditions Of sale,
terms Of payment, and the exemption from tax
alton, in favor OF the Pennsylvania Railroad
company, as almost 10 exclude bona hde compe-
tition. And yet it empowers irresponsible IN
divduals to bid for he purpose OF speculation,
by authorizing tbem if they should become the
purchasers, ''to assign and transfer their right to
the SAID Main Line. under said purchase, 10 a
nv Railroad or Canal company created by the
laws Of the Commonwealth" The privilege Of
transfer, under such circumstances, without IN
creasng competition, gives color to the assertion
that the bill has been 50 framed as to enable prl-
vate parieS-now engaged in procuring this
egiSlation-to purchase merely for the purpose
of selling at an advance, as indemnity Tor
their services.
3D. Because. although the bill purPorts to be
a sale of the Main Line, it, in reality. more
resembles gift to the Ptunsy Ivania Railroad
Company, if that company should obtain It on
the terms. proposed. The extraordinary eXten-

THE WHEAT CRop.-Speculation is do
ing its best to keep up fabulous prices for
grain; and there is no doubt but in some
places, in the old States, wheat is much
injured.
But correspondent of the Chicogo
Press writes that wheat fields in Southern
Illinois never looked better than now
i correspondent Of the Ciacinnatti Ga-
.rtis says he has watched the crops for for
ty years, and thinks that in Ohio, indiana,
Illinois and kentucky, there will be a
larger crop Of wheat harvested the COM
ing season than ever before. \ gentle.
man who has just returned from some
what extensive trip through Upcr Canada,
informs the Rorhcstcr Dcmccrct that moth
ing can exceed the promise of the wheat
crop, there.
FGUIT-Accouuts from all quarters
agree that there was never better pros
pcct for all kinds of fruit, than at present.
The n. Y. Journal Of Commerce states
that twice the usual amount Of foreign
fruit trees and seeds has been imported,
this year.
