WHEN To BE DONE

Is most fsttering. The location of the line is
one of the best in the country. 1t passes through
a large number of important cities and town where
commercial intercourse is large and rapidly in
creasIng. The country along the river is recev-
ing constant accessions of wealth and population,
and these will bring an increase Of trade which
must correspondingly add largely every year to
the business and profits of the company. Anth
old telegraph companies throughout the country
are now, and have been, paying satisfactory div
idends, a capital stock that has been repeated
eddy watered. If these companies, controlled by
few wealthy individuals owning nearly all the
stock, do this, it is quite reasonable to sup
pose that company, owned and managed by lis
patrons, with its lines desirably located, and
with limited amount of stock, at least 90
equally as well.

that Government certain definite powers, resery-

right to their self-gOvernment; and that when
ever the General Government assumes undelegA.

OF no fOrce That TO this compact each State ac-
eeded as State and is an integral party, its CO
States forming, as 10 itself the other party that
the Government created by this compact was not

have made its discretion, and not the Constitution
