CHICAGO. March 4.-The Tribune has
q vigorous editorial on the corrupt con.
tract which has been entered into be-

pany and the Union and Central Pacific
Railroad Companies. The Tribune de-
nouncss the contract In unstinted terms,

one, 10 q shameless defiance OF pxblic
morals, and boldly says that the Union
and Central Pacific pay the Pacific Mail
Company Q corrupt bride Of some $780,.

dollars n year by sxorbitant charges.
The public arc shut Of from the

holds the government directors, Sssre.
tary OF the Interior aud the President
accountable for this state OF affairs, and
says that the latter, though preparing
messages about the Monroe doctrine and
De Lesseps canal, has not . word to say
about railroad abuses at home. Rail.
road corporations believe themselves sI.
empt from accountability and act like
pirates. "They do not hesitate to make
public announcement Of the corrupt
compact, and evidently defy the execu.
tive, judicial and legislative branches Of
the government with the same confidence
that they show their contempt for pub
lilo opinion. This will continue till the
