this without cost to the party making
it. : If necessary, they are authorized
to give public hearings and as the re-
suit thereof to make such recommends
| tons as to the railroad companies as
THO circumstances may seem to require.
-0nce a year, the commissioners are
directed to pert the ecommen ions
thus made to the Legislature, with the
action Of the railroads thereon.
Mr.. Adams has found that the most
effective part of this system is that
which insures the publicity Of any
grievance suffered by the PEOPLE at
the hands Of railroads. Railroad cor
porations, he says, are peculiarly sensi-
tive to public opinion, and he bears
witness that wheneveran abuse q been
shown to exist, the companies have
FASTENED TO correct it. An incident
of this character which he narrates is
interesting. The people living on a
certain line cf road running out of
Boston petitioned for cheap or working
mems trains. The commissioners ad-
dressed the officers of the road, and
they refused to acede. They appealed
to the Board of directors with the
same result. Then they granted the
petitioners public hearing, and after
listening to the arguments, made
formal recommendation that the trains
asked for should be run. Instantly
the Board of, Directors considered their
action and acceded to the recommen,
dation.
Mr.. Adams testimony to the efficacy Of
public opinion in causing railroad eompa-
-nies to correct abuses is of SO positive and
unqualified character that it is impossible
to resist it. We find some confirmation
of it in the correspondence which is APP
pended to the Second Annual Report Of
the Railroad Commissioners of this State.
One instance may be mentioned: The
Dodge County Council, Patrons of Hus-
bandry, made complaint to the Commits
sioners of the failure Of the ST. Paul Com
pany TO make close connection at Por-
tage City. The matter was referred by
the Commissioners to Mr.. Merrill, and i'm
mediately alterations were made and ex-
plantations offered that were entirely salts
factory to the complainants. Throughout
this correspondence we find indications Of
a disposition on the part of railroad mana
gers to do all in their power toward re-
moving causes Of complaint.
Gov. Ludington's message contained a
.-uggestion that our system Of State control
should be rem ode!ed after the Massachu-
sets plan, and this suggestion gains great
force fnems Mr.. IA dams assurance that it
has been fully successful When it shall
haye been brought about in WISCONSIN ,as-he
testifies, that it as been brought about in
Massachusetts,, that a citizen who Las sp(-
feped agfieyance Of any kind from q. rail
roadeotip ahy,- who has been required to
pay an unreasonable price for transportas
zion, who lI,as been Disseminated aagsinsst,
/ Il no has been denied facilities for transport
ing his goods. or who has any other cause
CT comp amt, has only to send a postal
card to the Commissioners to ensure res
dress and security against the repetition OF
the grievance, without one cent of expense,
long advance will have been made toward
solution of the difficulties Of the railroad
problem .-MItodukee Sentinel.

The st. Paul Pioneer Press started
out to be independent,and to this com
plection it has come at last: "The
Democratic party has not yet been two
months in control of one branch ofsttfe

well, and has so labored with such dill

Pub lie Opinion as a Restraint Up
on Railroads.


Many of our readers will recollect the
address delivered By Chas. f. Adams,
Jr., at the annual fair Of the Northern
Wisconsin Agricultural Society in Sep
TENDER last. Seven years ago the first
board of railroad commissioners estab-
lished in this country was organized
by the Legislature Of Massachusetts,
and Mr.. Adams was made IA member OF
it. lie began at once to study the sub
ject as a science, and he has achieved
a complete mastery of all the details.
His annual reports are the most valu-
able treatises on transportation that
have been published, and the series of
articles that he has contributed to the
magazines possess equal value. All
this time he has been the active, work
ing member Of the Railroad Commits
sion Of Massachusetts, and has been
kept constantly In contact with de-
mands of the people on The one hand,
aud the disposition of railroad mana
gers on the other.
The result of his observations he
stated in his address at Oshkosh. Ad-
uniting that he had supposed at first
a restrictive law would be necessary,
he said that he had.become fully satis-'
fed that the Massachusetts, law is the
best that could have been devised. 1t
make thescommissioners a board of ar
bitrators between the railroads and the
public, and gives them certain supervi-
sorry powers. 1t makes it their duty to
in vestigats every complaint brought
against any railroad corporation, aad

Whether as a soldier in the Union

SO faithfully and so fully that he seems
to be one of that class of persons who
grow up to their responsibility es, how
ever large they may become. His re-

Want to hold their own in Con-
rrcSS,

The central newspaper organ OF the
democratic party, the New York World
advises the democrats in Ohio as follows
at may be that our friends in Ohio cannot sue
coed in carrying their State in October; but that
is not perhaps essential. What they can do, and
what we rejoice to believe they will do, Is to hold
their own in the contest for Representatives IN Con-
gress. The election of President in November
without the control Of the House Of Representa-
iives will be comparatively barren honor to
either party
From these words of our adversary let
republicans learn wisdom. 1t is important
for us not only to hold our own in Con-
gress, but to make gains in the House in
order to get the control Of that branch.
Republicans who fail to support the nomi-
nations of their party for Congress will
be playing into the hands of the demo-
cratic candidate, and aiding the democrat
ic party to effect what, in the language Of
the World, they are bending their best
efforts to do, ''hold their own in the con-
test for Representatives in Congress"
