g Running the Railroads.

Railroad men and their organs are
constant y harping upon the iniquity of
farmers in endeavoring to curtail their
charges. They pull long faces and say
that the present rates will scarcely pay
working expenses and that any reduc-
tion would be absolute ruin.
How can they say this when it is a
fact that the Western roads have earn
ed more money this year than last.
The Chicago and Northwestern road,
for instance, has in comparison with
last year increased its earnings at the
rate of $2.000,000 per annum. The
other roads are also doing we'll, the
Ohio and Mississippi being the only
one which has lost ground - Western
RurQl.

Immigrants Returning to Europe.

The officers of the German Steamer
King Wilhelm, which sailed from New
York on Wednesday, and the Cambria
which sailed on Thursday, received a
large number Of applications from emf
grants, who came out by them, to work
their passage back, some Offering all
the money they had left for the privi-
slege. Such thing has never occurred
before, and the officers have taken as
many as possible, though able to employ
only very few Of the numerous appli-
cations. So many men are out Of en-
ployment that newly arrived emigranta
have been unable to procure work and
the panic win probably thus prove a
serious bar to emigration.

Colorado Liquor Suit.

DENVER, COL, Nov. 12.-An import
ant suit has just been decided lin the
District Court at Colorado Springs, Ell
Paso county, Judge Hallet presiding.
The suit was brought by the Colorado
Springs Company against Carroll &
Mcdonald, to recover possession Of a
lot Of ground decided by the former to
the latter, some months since-a condi-
ton in the deed prohibiting the manu-.
facture or sale or other disposition of
Intoxicating liquors as beverages, or the
keeping of any place Of public resort
on the premises-and conveyed under
penalty Of forfeiture. The condition
was sustained, and the jury found the
defendants guilty of breach of condi-
tlons, and the property was restored in
full to plaintiffs.
