MrnnscK, in committee read from a docu-
uent which he held in his hand a statement
that the actual cost of the road was S27,22l,-
600. SO that the profit of building the ROAD
must have been near $40. 0O0, 900, which went
into the pockets of the Credit-Mobilier.
So the stockholders have their Slo,ooo,0o0
stock, which cost them only five per cent, or
fiYedollars per share Of sloo, and in thcr
other self as corporators of the Credit
Mobilier they have at least sc. 600 clear

The CIeiit-Slohilier stock was, we sup
nose, offered to very few persons OUTSIDE OF
the corporators. Some shares were "piaced :"
about amongst members of Congress "wnefe
they would be most useful; but those mem
bcrs got not much as they wanted, and
the Cyedit-Mobiiier people were much trou-
bcd with their urgent claims for stock. The
par of the shares were 500, but they soon
ran to $50. to 300, aud 1926.
If this is not corruption tco hig to hide
itself. then there need be no further effort to
truce and punish fraud in this land.

The Presidents Salary.

The House OF Representatives has gwen
the proposition to increase the Presidents
salary the cold shoulder in frustrating TWO
attempts to get it into the appropriation OIL.
Members took shelter behind o question Oh
order or regularity of the motions but IL is
not difficult to sec that there IS no great
haste among them to make the proposed IN
crease. .#-'.
II i shame that railroad presidents are
getting salaries larger than that of the Presi'
dent of the United States. The justice OF
the proposition does not rest upon this COM
parison, shameful though it Is. The de-
mands for expenditure upon the Chief EN-
ecuiiye Officer of this immense country are
very heavy, and that salary which was
proper in the beginning of the Go
yernment, when living was cheap and
the requirements for expenditure were
few and simple, is not at all suited 10
these times. We cannot suppose that the
congressman Of those days would have been
30 exiravagant as to give the President o
salary much too large for his wants. lfthey
did not, and if they gave him only enough
for that day, it has grown as much too snail
for this as would be the breeches of the boy
for the man.
Congress should not hesitate about the
increase. 1t would he niggardly. or worse,
to do so. 1t may be that General GEAH1
does not please congressman by his ways.
Yet It is mean to crafty n spite in this way.
This is What may lie always expected from
the mere partisans. He is iawninS and iul-
some to-day, and he will bite you Tomorrow.
General GRANT will know one thing when
be finally leaves the White House, and that
is that "politicians are not to be trusted

A Coal MOnODOlV.

1t is stated on good authority that the
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Com
{'any has gotten possession of about half the
anthracite coal interests of Pennsylvania
That is, it has purchased mines that yield
about 100000 tons per annum. The re-
naming mines yield, it is estimated, 3,2I2,-
900 tons. Having made this purchase, the
railroad company proposed to other compa-
MES TO fix prices for coal. They declining,
ii threatens to raise the price Of freight on
coal, which it is believed will compel sub.
mission to their scheme.
The railway proposes to put coal at S4.75
in April, ascending to $3.50 in October.
This is IN advance OH former rates, and 81

An Example for the Consideration Of
the General Assembly.
To The Editors of the Dispatch:

To The Editors OF the Dispatch:
AT this time, when all eyes are turned to
the financial condition Of our Commonwealth
and many eXpcdients discusscd'to relieve the
taxpayer rs well Is to secure the prompt
payment of the interest Oil the public debt,
it is strange that our Legislature cannot
learn from the past, and look to other States
which adopted measures to secure the pay
mcnt of their obligations when reputation
stared in their faces, but who, by sound
legislation, brought their bonds in a short
time from forty up to nearly at par. The
bonds of the State of Maryland were ut one
time as low if not lower, and as unsaieable,
than our own have been and are mt present,
but under the administration OF Governor
Pierce stamp-tay was iilauelrated which
saved the credit OF the State and eventually
paid IFS obligations.
What prevents our Legislature to adopt
such plan, particularly now, since the Gen
eral Government has abolished this source of
It's revenue with the exception Of the stamps
on bank checks and sight drafts, and even
these restrictions will in oil probability be
taken off.
Let the Legislature enact law as near as
possible as the one repealed Of the Internal
Revenue Department of the General Coy.

original maidstone was brought from France

stone know, has the appearance and the
weight of the more porous kind of bone.
The domestic manufacturer gets the bone it
self and Saturates it with some chemical or
other, and sells small bits of ii at five dollars

How the Money was Made

The Union Pacific Railroad Company got
from the Federal Government grant of ten
sgt;arc miles of land for every mile Of the
road, to start at the Tooth meridian and 90
wet to the Rocky Mountains, or until it
met the Central Pacific railway from San
Francisco. Besides that it had grant of /,
United States siX-per-cent. bond of $4,000
per mile for the first say 207 miles. For the
next GOO miles the road, passing through
desert rs it was assumed, and therefore
the road-huiding more expensive, it re-
ceiycd II bond for 49,, 900 per mile, and the
Rocky Mountain region being deemed still
more difficult, the sum per milo was there
increased 10 $4,000.
The private subscriptions Of stock were
about say Sl0,000,0C0, but only five per cent.
Ct that stock was paid down by the SUBJ
scrlbers. Stock was issued to these persons,
and they paid nothing more for it. Then the
assets OF the company, the land, and the
Government bonds, wereall given to another

Louisiana-Gen. Grant and Warmoth.
According to PINCnBACk's statement
already published hy uS-the President was
led TO interfere in the Louisiana muddlc by
Introducing the Federal army to oppose
MAMMOTH bya personal difficulty between
himself and WARMoTn. He was determined
that WARMorn should not be elected to the
United States Senate, and TO defeat him it be-
came necessary to sustain the Kellogg or
C,istom-house government.
The statement of PINCHBACK is Il scandal
TO the President and the country, which we
would not for Il moment credit save that the
President himself sustained PISCuBAcK and
made him Governor of Louisiana. If we
may not credit the man thus cherished by
the Federal Executive in whit he says oil
