THE ABOLITION OF Il USELESS OF

The House yesterday, by vote of So to
AZ, recommended the bill abolishine the
Office of railroad commissioner for passage.
There was long discussion, in which tho
that the Office was not only needful to pro-
feet the people from the rapacity of the rail-
roa Is, but to see that they kept their tracks
and bridges in repair, and also to sea that
the lands sold by them were properly listed
for taxation. Their arguments were singu-
larly alike, 50 similar, indeed, that the con.
clusion was irresistible that they had all
been "coached' by the same person from the
sams state of facts. Two of the speeches
Re 50 nearly alike-almost verbatim-that
t1oy caused consi lerable amusement. The
friends Of tue bill did not make as many or
as strong points as the sub ect allowed, but
they succeeded, nevertheless, in convincing
the ma iority of the members that the office
was an unnecessary one, and that it's duties
could be performed just as we'll by On ordi-
nary clerk in another department. as by an
independent officer.
The pretense of the advocates of retention
chat the railroad commissioner inspects the
tracks and bridges of the railroads of the
State and thus gives additional security to
the travelling public is all tol-de-rol. He
never has done any such thing and never
will, and if he did it would do no good.
Such an inspection. to be of any service to
the public, should be made by competent
civil engineer and bridge builder. The
charge of neglecting their tracks or bridges
is one that cannot lie against the railroad
companies, however open to criticism they
may be in other respects. They are more
interested than their patrons in having their
tracks we'll laid and their bridges substantial,
for they are tie principal! Losers By whatever

for the offense Monday and from the evidence
rendered by eye witness at River Falls, it
seems revolving that it beats my record.
Frees own testimony proved that the sixteen
miles were driven in less thaa ninety minutes
that on arrival at the Falls he stood the team

when they showed evidence of uneas1ness he
kicked them in the flank and inflicted blows
on the head and legs till the near horse gave
Up. Free demanded jury trial, which was
granted. He had no attorney to defend him,
Dir. Jasper Searls, the district attorney, tried
the case on behalf of the Sta te II appears
from what gather, that before an arrest was
made, Mr. Searls was consulted on the case,
and on the strength of his advice, Mr.. Damerel,
the livery man, procured witnesses from River
Falls but on opening the case be emphatically
told the jury that any act If cruelty which
transpired out of the State the jury had no uris-
dictlon over. which hampered and barrassed
the jury that they were obliged T., let the pris-
oner 60. Although there was not man on
that jury bnt felt it bruta outrage, and
could conscientiousiy send Free to the State
prison, the position taken by the prosecuting
attorney left US no alternative.
