Steel and Steal.


Eleven steel rail mills last year
produced about 100000 tons of
steel rails on which there was duty
of S2S per ton. This Melted our
friends who form this Bessemer
monopoly the snug little sum of
S42,00O,000 in addition to the prof
its which they might reasonably
make without the duty. But even
this large amount is not sufficient
to satisfy their rapacity. They now
sternly demand an increase of duty
en- the steel rods which enter into
the manufacture of wire, by which
they would increase the value of
this product two cents per pound,
and they will get it, too. Our west
ern farmers are so blind to their in
terests and subservient to party ties
that they will not very strenuously
object to paying in the seven or
eight million dollars extra which
this little tax will levy upon them.
We don't much wonder that Pro-
lection controls Congress, and guides
public sentiment. The much abused
powers Of railroad corporations sink
into insigni6cance when eontrasted
with the influence welded By these
eleven corporations whose net profits
far exceed that of the majority of
all the leading railroads of the coun-
try. Things have got to a pretty
pass when one of these firms pub.
fishes to the world that on a capital
of 100000 it declared a dividend
last year of s2,OO00OO. There are
very few of us who would not be
satisfied with 10 per cent. interest on
money invested in manufacturing,
say 100000 profits.

The people Of the northern por-
ton of the State have been greatly
excited for some days past over the
uprising of the railroad laborers,
which occurred at Superior juno
ton. Nearly 1000 men were thrown
out of employment by the transfer
of the Chicago, Portage and Su-
perior airline railroad to the Chi
cago, St. Paul and Omaha Company.
These laborers had unpaid claims
for labor amounting in the aggre-
gate to nearly 100000. They as
sembled at Superior in force, ami
threatened to burn the houses,
bridges, etc. The citizens became
alarmed and telegraphed Gov. Rusk
for aid. The state OF affairs was
quite alarming for few days. The
Governor telegraphed the laborers
that transportation would be fur
nished them to st. Paul, where they
could get employment, and that
their claims would be collected.
The trouble was finally settled by the
legislature passing an amendment
to the bill giving the land grant to
the Omaha Company, requiring the
company receiving the land to pay
$1,000 for all claims of the railroad
employ, which bill will doubtless be
passed by the legislature. -Richland
