CONCLUSION.


But I ought not to lsspass longer
upon the attention OF the Senate,
which has been given me in marked
and very patient manner. / wish,
however, before resuming my seat, to
say that ] have endeavored to dis
charge duty which, thought / owed
as member Of this body, and that
was to speak the truth as under
stand il, without reference to eonse-
quenees to myself, and only with ref
erence to the interests Of the State
The time sir, has passed in which
men clothed with therespOnsible duty
Of law makers, might, without viO-
tence TO duty, put on gloves to touch
lightly this great power, simply be-
cause II was great and powerful to
reward or punish. Sir, I ask this
Senate TO bear mewitness that have
uttered no word against the uses, but
only the abuses OF the power of rail-
road corporations. No man can have
a higher estimate than of the great
and almost miraculous benefits CON
ferred upon us rs individuals and as a
people BY railroads. And no Senator
upon this floor would go-ful ther than
4 IL NAuN pA1pELr ulIcGLlOu 70 Stimulate
and encourage them. This can not,
however, in my Judgment, be done.
by whitewashing these abuses and
ginking at evils which we know
exist l believe that law and that
public sentiment should encourage
railroads in every proper manner.
The railroad engine Is the visible,
tangible indication Of the highest
point yet reached by the material
progress Of the age. Not only so, but
in science, in art, in learning, in NOR
ais even in everything that embelish-
es and renders 0ur modern eiyiliZa-
ton attractive, It is the great helper
and promoter In its pathway indus
try is stimulated aud thoughts thick
ened Its sparks light up the glowing
fires OF thousand forEes, its rattle
aEakens the clash OF hammers, the
Whirl Of spindles, the clatter of looms,
and all Of the grand chorus Of varied
industry that sWeIls from the vast or
ehestra Dfsour continent. and times
the march Of progress for the world.
I repeat that law and public opinion
should encourage this grand iron CIV
ilizer, this great agent and manifesto
ton Of progress, by all proper means,
one, Of which believe TO bs the pre-
vention Of the evils Of which human
greed has In many instances made il
the instrument. ---t

A BRIEF HISTORY.

/ 80 -N~sAs
This principle Of supervisory DOW
er over railroads has given rise to
much thought and discussion in Ohio
and elsewhere, and has been put in
practice In two or three States Of the
Union and in several Of the countries
OF the Old World. The fruit Of this
thought and the result Of this expert
ence may aid US in determining the
question now before the Senate.
The office of Commissioner of Rail-
roads and Telegraphs was estab blished
in Ohio in 1867, after much discussion
In the Legislature. In the vacation
following the session Of 1886, a select
committee Of three sat upon the sub
ject, took Z numerous dispositions,
gathered innumerable facts, and at
the next session in a lengthy and
very able report, which I wish Sena-
tors might read, recommended the
establishment Of the Office with the
same powers proposed in part now to
be conferred by this bill.
Such, however, / am eFedibly in
formed, were the influences brought
TO bear upon that Legislature by the
railroad COMPANIES themselves, who
have always been hostile 70 this Office,
and who fought it In its ineipisney
and who are now bitterly opposed 20
any extension of its powers, that the
bill embedying the idea Of this report
emerged fr6n thRt Legislature shOrn
Of all provisions conferring practical
powers in the most vitality essential
matters. The office was thus crippled
I'm the beginning, and has been strug-
CLING ever since, enviroued by emb bar
rassments, 10 pI0duee the bsstresults
pOssible. These results. / think eve
nv careful observer viii say, have
made IL one Of the most valuable Of
our State ofhces. g i.9.a. ---ez- -.r.
z Asa a mere bureau Of statistics, the
ofice has been Of great value and Of
great credit TO the State. Il has been
urged in opposition 10 this bill that
the Office has accomplished nothing.
This statement Is unWise and untrue
in point Of fact. In keeping the inn
poFtsnce OF the railroad Interest con-
tinuaIly before the public mind, and
furnishing dEts for, and giving direc-
ton bo healthy intelligent legislation
upon this important subject, 10 sag
nothing of Whist else it has done, Il
has been worth to the people more
than ALI it has cost. It has, indeed,
accomplished all it could accomplish
under existing law. Give Il more
power, q larger eapahility for doing,
and it will accomplish more. t5 9a
Give the offiee more power II you
expect greater results, and 10 not mis-
take the imperfeetlon Of the law for
the inefielency OF the. officer or for a
defect in the principle Of the Office.
And here, Mr.. President, desire to
say that the close observation Of the
administration of the affairs Of this
Office, which, for nearly two years,
my duty as chairman of the railroad
committee has made necessary, has
convinced methat the present fneuna-
bent has done all in his pOWef-has
done all that labor, ability, zeal and
fidelity could do 10 make this depart
ment valuable TO the State, although
he could not, by reason OF his limited

Sir, these carpet baggers from Eir-

men know that in nearly every county
of Virginia colored man votes for a
Conservative at the risk Of his life II
he does it he is probably mobbed, and
if not mobbed he must be guarded 10

Hay items Opposed to Annexation
Can Take Care Of Themselves.
KINGSTON, April S.-The President Of
Hayti, since the departure Of the San
Domingo Commissioners, has received
addresses numerously signed, from every
town and village Of the Republic. pro-
testing the attachment Of the Haytiens
to their nationality and determination
to maintain their independence against
intrusion from whatever quarter and in
whatever manner it may show itself.
The addresses breathe the same senti-
ments against annexation.
The Nonittuer says that in the. Con-
gress and the press Of the United States
a discussion has taken place in refer
ence to the annexation OF the whole
island, and adds that as far as Hayti is
concerned the Government and people
of the United States cannot be too
early convinced Of the utter impossl-
bility OF such an event.

pear in the official papers. The Presi-
