THE ANTI.MONOPOLY WAR.

"Do the Railroads control the State,
or Does the state Control the Rail-
roads J"
The following is the closing portion of
the able speech of Senator Castle before
the Illinois Farmers State Convention,
at Springfield
To-day comes up the great question
whether the State is superior to the
charters they grant, or has parted con-
troll over them and this question is the
foundation upon which you must build.
telligent, pure-minded and clear-headed
lawyers upon either side, and what the
people need and must do, is to select
those for their Judiciary who believe,
upon principle, rs they believe /; not
men who are pledged to certain specific
action, but those who hold honestly the
same beliefs of right as do the people /;
whose ~sympathies are with the people,
rather than with chartered corporations.
The people of this State, in common
with the people of our whole Union,
lave now a grave responsibility thrust
upon them. While I concede the neces-
sity of railroads while I believe the
prosperity of our State and nation is
most intimately woven into that of the
railroad system, L yet believe they are
lTduRuU WILL S1SdAO1C Cf11o, dhN uA4AOoo
we of this generation continue this con-
test until we win the victory by forcing
these roads to owe their allegiance to
State enactment, the time will come
with the next generation when these
CORPORATIONS Will force the State to W
their dictum and do their bidding. Al
ready we nave near $3.50, DOC, 600 of
money invested in railroads in this State
alone, while its indirect influence is al
most without limit ; while in the Union
we have nearly $4,000, 000, 900 in the
same interest and controlled by afew
men who now control the legislation of
several States.
Now if this interest has grown in forty
years to an income of $455, 000, 900 last
year, what we can expect in the future,
when all these gains are to come from
the producing classes of our nation ?
May we not well feel a sense of response
bility while we press forward in this
contest for the supremacy of the State
over the creature of its creation?
In this contest, the Judiciary are a
mighty power, and it behooves you to
look well to it that you elect men who
are in sympathy with the toiling mil
lions.
No doubt designing men will desire
to be hoisted into power through the
excitement of to-day, but do not be de-
ceived as between an honest man who
denies your faith, and the dishonest
man who clings to it. Take the honest
man always.
Now, fellow-citizens, do not forget the
main question; do not be led off upon
side-issues !; settle first the question
"Do the railroads control the State, OF
does the State control the railroads p
and to this contest invite all men OF
kindred interest, without regard to
name, occupation or position. Let the
aim be single, and the bands of a com,
mon interest and a common brotherhood
bind together, until these corporations
acknowledge the supremacy of law ano
yield unqualified obedience thereto.

THE Boston Traveller says that TWEEN

THE Boston Traveller says that TWEEN
ty-four years ago a gentleman in n of
our suburban towns packed several eggs
in a box of oats and put them m an out
of-the-way place in the attic of his store,
with the intention of testing their con-
dition at the end of a years time. For
getting all about them, nearly a quarter
of a century had passed when, yester-
day, in overhauling the contents of the
attic, he came upon. the box of eggs in
it's h~iding-place. Upon breaking the
eggs, the shells of which appeared
sound, the whites were found to have
totally disappeared, while the yokes re-
manned, dried and quite hard. The
oats in which the eggs were packed were
as sound as on the day when they were
put in the box, and the gentleman has
planted several with a view of discover
ing whether they retain their vitality.
In the box was found a memorandum
giving the date OIL which the eggs were
deposited.

The East is waking up to an interest
in the transportation question, about
which the West is already SO much
agitated. The Boston Journal of Com
n16rce points out that when the farmers
cannot live by raising produce they will
do their own manufacturing, and adds !:
eff our merchants desire to retain their
Western trade, they must aid the West
to obtain facilities to reach the sea
board" The New York Times holds
the same opinion, and says that "the
railroads have been undermining their
own business" The recognition at the
East of the necessity for reducing the
rates of transportation is an important
step in the present movement. 1t is to
be hoped that it will lead to some prac-
tical effort in the way of resisting rail-
road aggressions and breaking down
railroad monopolies. A good deal was
achieved by the passage of the General
Railroad Law in New Jersey, by which
that State will be thrown open to a free
railroad passage from the West to the
Atlantic. Still more may be accom-
plished when Eastern capital shall make
some concerted and substantial move
ment for increasing the canal facilities.
This will be done when the Eastern
manufacturers and dealers fully recog-
nize the prediction of the Boston Jour
nal of Commerce, the New York Tribune,
and other journals which are warning
the Eastern people of their folly in per
hitting the Western trade upon which
they live to turn into another channel.

A Much.Needed Invention.

There was still one drawback to the
sewing machine. Running one was a
sort of treadmin operation, and it has
been charged caused physical exhaus-
ton, which produced new weakness and
diseases. This only inconvenience has
been set to rights by a California inven-
tor. He has eontrived an appliance of
water power, which entirely relieves the
human muscles from unusual strain.
He runs the sewing machine by water
and the appliance Of the power is Meth
er expensive MOI cumbersome o In
any respect ,inelegant. The following
description will give an idea of the con-
trivance {:
Its simplicity is only equaled by its
durability and convenience. The at
tachment consists of a neat iron water
case about one foot in diameter, which
is attached to the left side of the table.
Within the case is a brass water wheel,
modelled after the wheel ordinarily used
in the manufactures, that utilities this
power, weighing six ounces and measur-
ing eleven inches in diameter. Two
pipes connect with the case, one running
from a point on the floor to the front
side of the case, and about IN a line
with its center, and the other, a waste
pipe, leading from the rear end of the
case to and through the floor. The vol
ume of water, involving of course, the
motive power of the machine, is con.
trolledA by the operator, who simply
presses One foot upon the iron foot that
is substituted for the treadle.
The stream of water running upon the
wheel is no larger than a darning needle
though the pipe, save at a point within
an inch of the wheel, is an inch in diam
t eter. The water passes a few n
the cups of the wheel and is then throw
off by the centrifugal force and passed
down the waste pipe. An ordinary tanl
pressure of twenty feet Swin run tn
machine at a high rate of speed, cans
ing it to sew 225 yards of cloth, Will
the ordinary operator would be Showing
through $50 yards.

1t appears from the report recently is

It appears from the report recently is
sued by the English Registrar General
that, in England and Wales, there were
80 deaths from hydrophobia in 1870; all
of which occurred in the north, there
being none in the counties lying south
of the Trent. According to this report,
hydrophobia comes and goes in periods.
Thirty years ago it seems to have had a
season of prevalence for in the five
years of 1882 there were 70 deaths
in England and Wales from this dis
ease, averaging nearly 15 a year-the
range being from 7 to "a. The causes
of death for the next our years were
not made the subject of abstract, but
there seems to have been a period of but
few deaths from hydrophobia, as there
were only five in 1847, and seven in
1s4s. In the seven years, 1s49-55, the
deaths rose to Ill, averaging Is a year.
In the next eight years, 1868, the
deaths from hydrophobia fell to 26,
averaging only three a year, and rang
ing from 1 to 5. In the next seven
years, 186t7O, this malady prevailed
again, and the deaths were 1872, averag-
ing 10 a year, the largest number, 80,
being in ITO.
