1t IS thus shown that the net earnings of the
Galena fell 80 per cent II The i've years which en-
sued after it WAS hist completed; and this, not
withstandng the steady Increase of population in
the country through which it runs, and the econo-
mics which experience and the decline in the
cost of labor have brought about in the
cost Of running the road in the past
five years. Such Is the natural, inevitable
consequence Of our Western railway system, which
encourages the construction Of any number of COM
peting railway lines for the sake of opening up the
country they intersect. The policy is a sound one
for the country but plainly fatal to the instruments
used-vz: the railways. year or two since the
friends of the Galena used to explain the decline in
its earnings by saying that the country through
which it runs had had no corn crop since 1906
they were fond of referring to the time when The
Galena alone carried $780, 900 bushels Of corn into
Chicago. Well, in 1859 and lSG0 the Caena coun-
try had an unexamped yield of corn; but how was
it with the earnings Of the road' They show no
increase worth mentioning. The fact is, the husi-
ness which the Gaiena monopoiized in 1866, and
which enabled it to earn million and quarter
and to pay ~ per cent dividends, is now divided
among half dozen roads, not one of which has
enough to keep it going; and the prospect is that
tHe penulnS war Will reduce us ulVluenus from
per cent, which they have averaged for the past
three years, TO TX, or even less. Why people
should be willing to give 65 for such stock as this,
when they can buy excellent seven per cent State
stocks at so 50, and United States skies nj
81, is one of the puzzles Of the day. Ii Galena is
worth IS, New York Central should be worth l3o,
