PERSONAL AND GENERAL.

When the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad
was chartered the Legislature OF West Nir-
ginia agreed that the road should be exempt
from taxation until its earnings should be
sufficient TO pay ten per cent. dividend on its
stock. IL has not yet earned the dividend,
but the Supreme Court has declared the
exemption illegal, and that the taxes must
be paid.
Speaking of the bill introduced into the
United States Senate TO charter another rail-
way from the Atlantic TO the Pacific, the
New York Herald says: senator Mcpherson,
Of New Jersey, has introduced bill in the
Senate providing for the construction of a
new railway from New Jersey which, COM
mercialy speaking, means New York, to the
Pacific coast. The company which asks this
act of incorporation does not petition for a
subsidy or land grant 1t simply requests the
right Of way, alleging that it has American
and foreign capital amounting to Sl5O,OOO,-
600 behind it. Mr. Mcpherson accompanied
the Introduction Of the bill with an explana-
ton ia which he sought to relieve himself OF
all responsibility, legislative or otherwise, on
the subject. Perhaps he knows more about
the scheme than he has seen fit to disclose.
II the project is an honest one there is no
reason why the charter should not be granted.
If a Job turks in it anywhere il is certain to
De found out. But by all means let US have
as many railroads as possible between our
Jersey suburb and all parts OF the country"
