THE IOWA RAILROAD LAW,


believed, will render imperative the Railroad
law pasHed at tho last session Of tho Iowa Ley
islaturo. That ouaotment prescribed certain
achedules Of rates for the transportation Of
freight, varying according to tho classification
Of tho particular road. Tho maximum allowed
upon roads falling within Glass A. waa to DO
90 per cent OF tho rates named in tho schedule
embraced in tho law. ThoHo in Class could
charge IL per cont, and those in Class 4 80 por
cont higher than roads in Glass q. BY Section
OF the law 1t ia provided that "Tho reports
from tho railroad corporations Of tho State for
tho year 1878, mado In pursuance Of tho
provisions OF Section 1880 Of tho codc,
shall determine tho classification of oach
road for the year onding July 8, 1876"
Strange to relate, only ono or two minor organi-
zations ever complied with this requirement Of
the Iowa code. They havo been accustomed
annually to send to tho Secretary Of State q
pansoa. called for by another section Of tho stat
ute, which has boen tacitly understood to bo all
the information desired by the State officers.
But the section roferred to In tho code calls for
vastly moro information than has been custom-
arily scnt in. comprising data that Gun only bo
supplied by the President Of the corporations,
whereas the brief reports submitted were In
several caaes forwarded by Illinois companies,
tho loBsora of tho Iowa lines.
The manner OF this discovery WAS almost Al
interesting as lta reault. None Of tho railroad
attorneys, who havo boen wrestling over the law
for months pagt, had noticed it. It came about
thus: The officers Of the Sioux City l. Pacific
Railroads. line extending from Missouri Valley
Junction to Sioux City-last week asked leavo to
amend their report 60 aB to leave out the earn.
inga Of ferry-boat, which deduction would 90
lessen their earnings psf mile as to place the
Company In Glass G. Theroupon tho Executive
Council Of tho State, who by law arc CONSTITUTED
tho Railroad Commissioners, examined tho
statute, and discovered that the classification was
dependent upon reports not received, hut whici
should have been on flo last January. Alarmed
at the discovery, and believing the omission fata
to the law, the Council asked tho Attorney Gen
eral for Ills opinion. This has not yet been Nh
nouncea; but other lawyers equally eminent Ii
the profession, residing In this State. in lows
and in New York, havc carefully investigated
tho question In Ill it's bearings, and hayo sub
scribad to writted opinion that tho law is In
operative until July, 1876, whom another mod
Of classification, also Indicated In tho statute
will go into etfect.
This law was passed In obedience to tho be
hests OF tho Grangere. No railroad expert
were permitted to make any suggestions
though it will be surprising IN the event OF tn
failure Of tho law 1t the defect is not charged
upon tho agents Of the corporations. Tho fac
is, they stood aHido because, IN the algnihcsn
language OF ono Of theae gentlemen, IA Grang'
Legislature arc presumed to know what the.
are about"

The result Of the local elections in New
jersey on Tuesday affords significant in
dication Of the direction which public SEN
timent is taking. The Republicans were
beaten almost everywhere. In Jersey
City the Democrats elected the Mayor and
a majority of the Common Council and
Board of Education, and throughout the
State the returns tell pretty much the
same story. 1t cannot be said that the
general defeat Of the Republicans was ow-
ing 10 local considerations, for in some in-
stances that party presented a ticket far
superior in personal worth and popularity
to that pat forth by the Democrats, only
to be beaten just as badly as their party
was beaten in other places where less
Judgment was shown in making nomina-
tions The fact is that the people are be.
coming thoroughly disgusted with the i'm
becility and corruption OF the national AID
mlnlstratlOn, aud many VINO nave hereto
fore acted with the Republican party can
not be brought odo anything which seems
ike an endorsement OF Grantism, If it is
only voting for constable who wears the
party badge. Besides, in New Jersey the
Republican party has had to carry Secor-
Robson and his friend Cattell, who have
assumed the direction of politics and poll
ticians in that State, and in New Jersey
people know Just what these men are.
But the Republican overthrow cannot be
whollyiascribed to any local cause-''it is in
the air, as disguised Grant man said on
Tuesday. night when he found that the
ticket he had labored for all day was beat
en- out OF sight. 1t is continuation of the
same manifestation of dlspleasure with the
Administration which showed itself in the
New Hampshire and Connecticut elections,
and which, unless the Republican party
makes haste to pitch it's Jonahs overheard.
will grow in strength until the organiza-
tiOn which has exercised such unlimited
power for more than dozen years is com.

taken by the meeting of farmers in this

representative ''new-dealers' for each Of
the three Congressional districts compris-

meeting adjourned to reassemble in this
city on the 30th instant. Though this pre-

The ladies Of Chicago are not daunted
by the disgraceful manner in which
they were treated Monday, and are con-
tinuing their efforts as though nothing
of the kind had happened.
The temperance ladiesy'of New York
will not waste their ammunition in

sbamefuIIy by q bowling mob, yester-

In Dayton, Ohio, the temperance
wheel moves steadily on, and the So

Eleven days have passed since the WORK
begun, and not a single conquest has
been achieved.
