What consummate donkeys railroad
men are making of themselves over the
subject of passes. About every solemn
conclave they hold, the pass question is
the burden of their souls. We see the
same bodies backing and fillIng-passing
and resembling rules forbidding their is

tremble on the verge of conclusion to
abrogate the whole thing They are
brave and determined, and timid and
alarmed by turn-thinking they will and
then thinking they won't. For the credit
of our railroad friends, we would suggest
that there is nothing like being "a man or
a mouse, or a long tailed rat" on this and
all other great questionsP
