OUR nelghbor, on Poverty Row

reads us pretty long lee ure, which
would be wholesome one, We're 1t
not based upon assumed data. He af-
fects To discover III humor In our
simple denial ofan unfounded rumor,
and, perhaps, suspects us Of envy
ing his good fortune In getting the
Railroad printing. In both cases, he
Is mistaken. But he consoles us, In
reference to the latter, by informing
us that we might have been honored
with the printing II, like the Leaf, we
had taken stock In the Road. In re-
ply to this supposition we will only
state that duty to our families and to
our creditors Is higher than any we
owe to q public enterprise-paying
honest debts should take precedence
of subscriptions to Railroads. Nor
are we proficient enough in mathe-
matics to figure out the profit in TAX
ing stock, TO be paid in work. We
have to pay for every line that is set
up, and every page that is printed,
which is, in fact, simply paying the
stock In cash. Could we get the work
done for nothing, the stock would be
clear gain, but where the work costs
us about as much as the stock, we
can't see where the profit comes in
we do not see 1t clearly enough, II
there he any, to tempt US to bid fol
the job.
The Leaf kindly assures us that
neither the President of the Road, MOI
Col. Leonard, is inimical to the
CHRONICLE, and that II we lack de.
sired information In regard to the
Road II is attainable from either. We
have not seen the President, since he
was elected, nor spoken to Col. Leon
ard within the same length of time.
1t is usual with men engaged in bust
ness, public or private, to voluntarily
furnish any information which they
desire to communicate to the public
through the Press, but If it can be OBJ
tanned only by following up and
pumping it from its source, we shall
never get it. AS to luminosity to the
CHRONICLE, we have never imputed
1t to the President, or Col. Leonard
Partially to one institution does moi
necessarily imply actual hostility tt
another, though, in a business point
ofview, the practical results are some
times, the same.
Our course In reference to the trans
fer of Bonds, was dictated by an hon
est conviction that the man who own,
no property, in the corporation, has
in the abstract, no right to vote tn,
upon the property of others, and hav
ing no vote even In the corporation
affairs, we supposed that every on,
would recognize, IL not commend
the motive, Us well as the principle
upon which 1t is predicated.
1t is our belief, neighbor, that W,
can, both, do more for the Road b,
pursuing the even tenor of our owl
way, unmolested, than by trying t,
pick flaws in each others motives ant
, convictions. We ought, perhaps, t,
return thanks for the kind interes
manifested in our behalf; but as W
have given the Leaf an opportunit.
to blow loud blast upon its owl
trumpet, accounts are about suuar
and hvnors easy.
