NO MORE BONDS.

EIToR NEWS: From a late num-
Der of THE News l learn that a new
proposition has been gotten up by
the Emporia Board of Trade and
others to fasten upon US, for all
time, so far as majority of the
votes of this county is concerned,
$4,000 more railroad bonds, paya-
bio in thirty years, and bearing in
terest payable semi-annually. Also
to donate to some company and its
successors, 100000 of stock, for
which we are indebted, and upon
which we are bound TO pay, semi
annual interest, upon the promise
of the location here of the repair
shops and offices of short, coIlater-
al and tributary road, which must,
of necessity, always be at the ''ten-
der mercies" of the X. p. road.
This appears to be, decidedly, a
worse proposition than the one re-
jected by the people last autumn.
And what will be gained except
more debt? Some say competition
in tariffs upon freights and fares.
We have that already to as great an
extent as we have reason TO expect
after we shall have constructed this
proposed road. The people have
in this way, been seeking COMPETE
ton in Illinois, aud yet it is stated
that both freights aud fares are
higher there than ten years ago.
Not competition, but combination,
is the order of the day.
All men are more or less corrupt,
and unrestrained power in any par
ticular direction is dangerous to
the welfare of the community.
Money is power, as well as ";he root
of all evil" Sad experience, for
several years past, has taught us
that large sccumuIations of capital
have wrought very serious injury
to the best interests of the people
more especially when under the con-
troll of corporations. For instance,
see Tammany, Caldwell, Credit
Mobilier investigations, etc. We
must not investigate only-we must |
act, and not only expose but punish |
the guilty, in whatever station or
whoever he may be. There must |
be an upheaving from the founda
tons of society, and our voters-for
the time being--must be taught that
the real power is "behind the
throne"-that the real soVereigns of
the country are, mostly, of the hard
listed yeomanry, the producers, and
that they, as a mass, are honest, and
that they will insist upon integrity
in their public servants. Instead of
plunging headlong still further in
10 debt, does it not stand us in hand
70 make an immediate halt and look
behind US to see how far we have
gone! Let US see to it that econo-
ny be observed, not only in Nation
Il and State affairs, but in every
direction. And now let Us see how {
ar we have gone. You truly re-
few weeks since, ave
AVE been going too fast" If we !
making "bonds" for our I
elves l fear we will, ere long, be |
'ound as security as poor Promo
hIs was said to have been to the :
abled rock. But let us have the I
cures in the matter:
