every State. Mr. Powers, by unanimous
| consent, further discussed the law as to what
constitutes private, and what public cor
poratiOn. Mr.. Veazey concluded the dis
cussion, reviewing the arguments of Senators
who had spoken against the bill, and cited
| instances where relief had been sought from
rhe abuses of existing corporations in this
State, which was only obtainable at great
sacrifice of time and expense. He examined
the bill somewhat in detail and pointed out
the guards which were placed in it to pre-
vent the very evils which Senators on the
other side -eemed to anticipate. In answer
! TO the allusiOn of one of the speakers on the
other side that it was unfortunate to refer to
| The State of New York, he cited large num-
Der of railroad enterprises now being prose-
cuted under the general railroad law of that
State, to relieve the people from the oppres-
siye monopoly of trunk lines controlled by
the giant railroad. kings. Mr.. Veazey con-
tInucd his remarks for upwards OF an hour,
making most thorough and exhaustive ar
gument for his side of the question, The
