MY DEAR GENERAL:-I am good deal annoyed
In interesting friends to aid In carrying on my
work In this campaign Many are apathetc, and
while they are profuse in good wishes and ready
to encourage BY words, yet that does not pay
printing bills and other expenses. General Brady,
OF the POstofice Department, seems TO think that
you do not care for his aid and is for some un.
known reason inclined to be cool toward you. 1
am satisfied that on an intimstion from you that
such things would be appreciated he would per
haps do something for me, Indeed, he has init.
mated as much to me. Won't you please set him
right or In some way express desire for his aid,
for l need help very much just now. Respect.

The RaiLloay Age, In forthcoming

the mileage track actually lai1
down in the United States during the
year 1880. The fooliDgs are astonish-
ing, showing. as they do. that not less
than 2, 207 miIee Of new track we're
laid during the past twelve months on
st least 234 different lines. These
figures are greater by 81 per cent.
than those of 1879. The Age antici-
pates that final figures will increase
the grand total to $500 miles, q
mileage greater than has been con
struCted in the United States or any
other country 10 any previous year.
The only state 10 which no work has
been done Is Mississippi, and the only
territories are Idaho, Wyoming and
Indian Territories, from which the
railways are kept, although eager to
enter and Alaska. Another year
will see large additional amount OF
tracklsying in these territories. Da-

The New York Chamber of
Commerce Makes Some
Good Suggestions

New York, 6. The Chamber of
Commerce, to-day. adopted a report
and resolution presented by its COM
mittee on railroad transportation,
declaring that the public welfare ur.
gently demands that commerce py
railroad should be controlled and
regulated; that such regulation should
take the form of (6rst) positive laws
defining public rights, and (second)
supervision by gu executive power,
to see that these laws are carried into
effect; that with iuterstaIe commerce
these laws and supeTvisions should be
provided by Congress, and for those
railroads exclusively within the juris-
diction OF state, similir action
should be taken by the legislature OF
that state. 1t was also resolved that
OF the measures now pending in Con-
gress for the regulation of interstate
commerce, the bill known as the
Reagan bill, in the opinion of the
Chamber, is the one best calculated
to protect public interest, and that it
should become law without unneces-
sary delay. 1t Wes further resolved
that an additional and separate bill,
not inconsistent with the provisions
OF the Reagan bill, should be passed
providing a national board OF railroad
commissioners, to see that all laws OF
the United States relating to railroads
are duly executed, and generally to
supervise the operation of interstate
railroads.

from the Pacific to New York to vote,
and under that order both of them
