GERMAN RAILROADS AND POLITICS,

Nothing IL done or undonc in Germany ex-
cept with view to its political effect, using
tho word political in larger and more digni-
fed sonso than 1t has Us applied in tho United
States. Tho proposition relative to the pur-
chase and absorption by tho German Empire
Of the entirc railway systo,n OF all tho Cor
man States WINS made originally in tile ahapo
Of an economio measure; but before 1t got
before tho nntion It's Importance politically
considered seomed to put every economic
feature entirely out Of consideration. It
camo from BrsMAnoK, This waa enough Of
itself to stump it as political measure. He
began by whispering It in tho select hnperinl
circle, md gradually 1t spread to tho aubaid-
iary Royal circles BISMARCK said 1t was
economic, but it was Immediately recognized
aa political. But, contrary to tho proyi-
oua experience Of the great Ohancol~
lor, It did not receive the iu-
mediate and general support which hiH
propositions for the Imperial Government
had alwaya met with at tho hands OF the va-
zious Royal Ministries and Parliaments. OF
course, the Ultramontanos opposed the
scheme, o. they would oppose any general
measure emanatiug from D1sMAnoK. This
was to bo expected. But It was unexpected
that tho Liberals and those most devoted to
imperial unity should join the Ultramontanes
in their opposition on this question. There
was sudden development, to speak in Amor
lean parlance, Of Statcs' sighta movement
with strength which BISMARCK had evident
ly underestimated. With raro wisdom and
foresight, bnt with moro tosboarance than he
iB accustomed To show, BISMARCK nominally
abandoned the comprehensive sohome with
which ho started out, and contented hiInself
with scheme for transferring the Pr1ssian
railways to the Imperial Government. This
was first officially broached in the P1ussjan
Parliament in tie lattor part OF last month /;
but the adyices from Berlin Indicate that 1t
will encounter tho aams opposition from the
minor statos a. the original proposition, for
tho reason that 1t II regarded a. merely pre-
limina1y TO tho adoption Of tho broader
scheme.
Thers Is an economic reason why the mid
die and southern States OF Germany should
resist movement to csntralize tho control Of
all tho railroads In the hands Of the Imperial
Government, though 1t does not appeal to
these statea 80 strongly as the political objec.
tions. The railroads of Wurtsmborg, Baden,
bavaria, and 8a1ony were constructed by
those States respectively, are owned by
them, and are fruitful source Of revenue.
The construction, having been reserved to
the different Kingdoms, tho railroads wore
built economically and upon common and

criminal conviction Of revonuo thieves, tho
impeachment Of BELRSAr, tho smirching Of
other regulations, md tho disgrace
Of BApcocR, have produced upon tho
public mind deep disgust for ma
chine politics and for tho politicians
who operate tho party machines, Tho
opinions, wishes, md feelings Of the Repub-
leans Of tho great State of New Y@k wore
lately treated with contempt by these ma
chino opcrntors- For ten years Senator
CoHK11So has been the dispenser Of partisan
aims in that State. AL Federa, offices, from
village postmaster to tho Judges on tho
bench, havo been taught to know and to fcol
that they owed their places to Tho personal
favor of Senator CoNx11Sa, and, outdds Of
the Judiciary, they have had the fact severely
impressed on thom that They could only re-
thin their places by his consent- The result
was vast political machine, spread nil over

and capable Of producing convention obedi-
ent to his personal command. What hIr.
