4 few weeks ago nc introduced the subject
of cniisting Tic aid ard co-operation Of Rail-
road Companies in supplying tire-wood, at a
reduced rate, to the fainili:s Of soldiers, and
to the deserving poor Of the city. We are
rot willing to believe that "eorporations have
10 souls" nor that the Railroad Companies
wl:o have contributed 1ibcra11y towards enlist
ing and cguipping m-n for the battlefield,
will rot now do their whole duty towards re-
liesirg the wants Of the Caniiies Of those
who are in The army.
The objections urged against our former
proposition, are that it srggested that all the
wood be brought in By the Railroad Compa-
mis- .j1ss ef charge, which they think is asking
tco much. Be it so: arc they each willing to
bring in wood from points along the line of
tEeir road, ut the same rate Of freight, In pro-
portion, as other articles? Fire-wool Is 4
P1oiluct CT tie country, and SHOULD be on the
freight tariffs Of erery road; and the only rea-
son that it is not, wc arc assured, Is because
the Railroads see it to their advantage not to
take it to market, lest the price be thereby ad-
yaEccd, and they in consequence be compelled
to ray higher price for the fuel used upon
their locomotives and cars. Examine the
monthly statements made out by the Master
A1achinists Of the different companies whose
lines traverse well tinlbercd county-the
Michigan Southern, Michigan Central, Pitts
burgh and Fort Wayne, and Chicago aud Rock
Island, for instance-and you see their wood
estimated to cost them from $500 down to
Sits per cord ;>at the same time nc Of the
city arc paying from five to eight dollars per
cord for the same qualities Of wood. Is 1t
right md Just that the people at large must
pay a tax Of from three to six dollars per cord
10: tho purpose Of keeping the price down to
accommodate the railroad companies? It may
be, but we fill to sec 1t, in that light Some
Of these companies, VIC are told, were granted
| the right Of way through large tracts Of heayi-
| II timbcrcd land, upon condition that they
should bring cordwood to the city at 81. 90 per
cord-now they demand $3.50 to 500
t which Of course would make 1t Improbable
| to the shipper
| Upon the line of scycra1 of our Western
railroads, and within 1o0 miles Of Chicago,
there are immense forests, where the wood
eau be had for the cost Of chopping, or per
liaps trilc more. a short distance North
west from Calumet, and within fifty miles Of
this city, arc million cords Of wood-one
half Of which will be freely given to any COM
pany who will cut and haul it off the land, and
the balance Of 1t can be had at very low
figure.
To penetrate this dcnsely wooded forest
some whole sections Of which have never had
II tree cut from them-would require switch
