The entire features Of the Horse Railroad
bill will be explained by the best lawyers in
the city, at the meeting tonight. Nine thou
sand citizens demonstrated against it in one
day, and still some Of our members Of the
Legislature persist In determination to
press it. Why:
They pretend that the people admire the
Horse Railroad bill. They would have us be-
liere that the people arc anxious to be gov
erncd by the Horse Railroad Companies.
They have passed this bill, giving hundreds
Of thousands OF dollars Of the property Of
the city to private monopolies without any
compensation, all ont Of tender regard for the
interests Of the " dear people" Let the peo-
pic turn out tonight and settle the question
forever.
, 1865-02-04

| Men Of Chicago! are not the vested
rights Of the city Of Chicago worth as much
to you as those of the railroad monopo1ies
are to their spectators! The city now has
the right to take the railroads at the end of
nineteen years and thenceforth run or lease
OF sell them, 30 as to derive revenue from
them. These rig hts the Il. R. r. Bill takes
away without any compensation. Must your
property continue to be taxed to support
these monopolies after they have grown rich
without taxation? Come to the meeting to-
night and make known your will. The peo
pie still rule.

Qbifaa0 Grlbn11eo


Some ofour Represcntativesin instead ofreced
ing from the votes by which they have nisre-
presented the people Of Chicago On the railroad
question, say that they arc determined to
push the Railroad Bill through, and If tue
Governor yctoes 1t, to pass It over his head.
Why arc they thus zealouB? Do they con-
lend that Chicago or the Pcoplo'dealre It ?
No. Having voted for 1t once with their eyes
shut, they announce their intention to stick
TO it now, right or wrong. Nothing but full
and unmistakable expression Of the popular
will, tonight, nj the meeting noticed in ar
'other column, will prevent the bill from be-
coming law. Let every man who wants to
reserve the right and power to control the
railroads, to compel them to extend their
routes, to put on plenty Of cars, to charge no
more than five cents, and to pay n fraction Of
their immense revenue towards The city eoy-
eminent, as all our hackmen and draymeu
are compelled to do-come to the meeting
to might.
