Parallel Railways.
How They Work Nowadays.

How They Work Nowadays.
 Communication in New York Evening Postl
 The purpose of the people in granting the powers and privileges that permit the paral- leling of railways without opening up any new territory or developing any new indus try was to increase the facilities for transpor- tation and secure a competition that would lessen it's cost. Whatever these laws may have secured to the public in the past, it is evident that they have become instruments for the accomplishment of evil. Parallel lines bring consolidation instead of com petition. They divert capital from productive channels where it is need ed, to be engaged in the business oi transportation in locations where sufficient amount of capital was already so engaged and the public is made to pay for it's use They serve to make investments in railway securities insecure and destroy confidence al home and abroad, even in the best paying properties. They prevent existing railways from perfecting their lines and from equip ping them as they might do were they not compelled to use their resources in buying rival lines for self preservation. If line 500 miles in length can be paralleled and the parallel sold to the pre-existing line at { profit of $12, 900, GOO, it is safe to assume that paralleling will continue until human greed ceases to be an active force, unless tht laws that permit it are repealed.

However, as they could make sufficient fire
 with sagebrush to keep from freezing, they decided to pass the night at the spot. They
 kept awake all night and kept busy about half
 the time pulling sagebrush in order to keep
 up their fire.
 The next day they discovered that they
 had got down into Bloody Canon the mouth
 of which strikes the plains in the neighbor-
 hood of Mono Lake. They pushed on, wal
 lowing through heavy drifts end tumbllng
 down the rocky terraces with which the canon is filled, it being the toughest pass in
 the whole range of the Sierra Nevada noun
 tains. During the day McKinnen became
 delirious and MT. Sperling had great difficult ty in getting him to travel He imagined all
 manner of things. At one time he declared
 he saw a horse tied to 8 tree. 'Thers he is, cried he s'dont you see him And the dog there is a dog with the horse. There must be man near. D 'sThere is no tree, no horse, no dog,' said Sperling you only imagine those things. Come on or we shall perish. It is only little way down the oanon." It was necessary to haul McKinnen along down the canon, as he persisted in declaring that
 he saw a horse and dog if Mir Sperling
 'oould not see them he must be snow blind" Next McKinnen declared that he saw a man but little way off with a basket on his arm. l ''He is beckoning us to come to him." he said. ''Let us go. He is a man sent to find us. He has in the basket something for us
  | Sperling ''There is no man there. There
 is nothing at all" II tell you that you are
 snow blind. There is man there with a
 basket, and he wants us to come to him. !" ''Come along" cried Sperling 'there is no
 man, and we shall perish if we stop here. |"
 No" cried McKinnen; i've shall die if we I don't go to the man. ''You are little t1ighty-a little out of your head" said Sperling; "believe what tell you and come | on." II shall not go on. I see the man plainly enough He has a basket on his arm, l and motions for us to come to him. If you can't see him you are either blind or crazy. | I have as much right to my way as you have | to yours, and I say, let go to the man !" \ Sperling found it necessary to drag his com panion away by force. Soon he became so
 much worse that he would stop and talk to stumps and stones, telling them he was lost, \ and asking them to lead him out of the noun | tains.
 With infinite toll and trouble MT. Sperling
 and his companion finally reached Troy | ranch, near Mono Lake. and all their troubles
 were soon over. Mir. Troy was not at home, \ but his wife did all that anyone could have ! done for the two men. McKinnen came out l all right in mind after he had eaten and slept, | but still thought he must have seen horse
 and dog, and man with basket on his arm.

 J. H. Sperling, assayer for the Great Sierra Mining company, Tioga, who came near losing his life in the Sierras week before He still suffers from badly frost bitten foot, but is able to limp about pretty we'll. In other respects he looks as hale and rugged as grizzly. It appears that he left Ben- nettville, camp on the west side of the mountains, to inspect for eastern parties mining property on Mount Gibbs, at the head of Bloody Canon. He had for guide and companion Dan McKinnen, a man fami- liar with the section of country into which they were going. When they got up to Mount Gibbs furious snow storm Set in. The guide soon lost his way, and for two nights gled in the snow. which was two feet deep on the level, and in many places had so drift cd that it reached almost breast high.
 They had no provisions with them, and all they had that they could eat was small piece of raw, fat bacon which they had taken with them for use in greasing their snow shoes. They were exceedingly hungry the first day, and divided and ate the bacon raw. After the first day they did not much feel the bangs of hunger, but felt great weakness. They had no blankets and dare not attempt to sleep. The place was full of precipices, and
 
 travel during daylight. They were obliged to stop wherever dark came upon them.
 The first night they stopped where there was some wood, but the next dark came upon | them in a place where all was bare and bar ren. At a distance they had seen what ap peared to be a small grove, far down in big canon, but darkness came upon them before they could reach the place. There were sc many perpendicular terraces and precipicet 1 in the place that they dare not venture to gc on in the dark.

The pitchy wood oi | their snow-shoes made excellent torches, bu being filled with grease they burned ava, rapidly. The distance to the fiat in thu canon, where lay the supposed grove, wa much greater than they had anticipated be sides their progress through the deep snov was slow and when they finally came to tn flat their last torch was almost burned cut Enough of it remained, however, to shov them that what they had taken to be grow was only black patch of sagebrush, the top of which they had seen above the snow

HOW IT HAPPENED.

When Q man is knocked insensible the first thing he does after ''coming to- is to explain to himself how he came to be hit So the Republican party, having been ''knocked out" by the Democrats Tuesday, is now en- gagged in explaining to itself the reasons for the disaster.
 The voting showed that the dissatisfaction among Republicans is wide and deep. It is felt that the leaders of what has really been grand old party are not abreast with the needs of the country and tho party. Some of them are determined to boss or to die in the attempt. and the indications are that they will die. 'Stalwartism' is offensive to a large part of the party, and those who are fighting it in New York and Pennsylvania have hosts of sympathizers in other States The course of President Arthur in New York politics is very unpopular. Some of the proceedings of the last session of Con- gross were not what they should have been. There is general feeling that reform at any cost is better than what we have had. The party has been like patient donkey drawing a heavy load and cruelty belabored by it's driver. But it has finally kicked and tho fragments thickly strewn about testify to the force of the kick and the spirit which in. spired it.
 In this State, in addition to general causes there were special ones acting We have
 said before, and we repeat it now, that what
 the Democrats are fond of calling the bar
 gain which resulted in the nomination of General Bulkeley was not wise. To be sure there was not exactly bargain, but the ar- rangement was so like bargain that plain people could not really see the difference We have no doubt that General Bulkeley lost on this account several hundred votes. Then there is the liquor question A good fair license law would meet the approval of large majority of the voters of the State But the present law appears to be considered harsh and unnecessarily irritating. It has not had trial enough to really show it's strength and weakness, but it does not gain in popularity. It cost tho Republican party 8 great many votes.
 But there is no profit in crying over split milk. The better way, if tho pitcher re- ! mains whole, is to refill it. The lesson of Tuesdays work should be plain to the lead CTS of the Republican party in this State and in other States If they heed it ali may be well. But if they continue to ignore the plain signs of the times tho grand old party will suffer another and more serious eclipse in 1884

ment with hard labor The trial has created
 great sensation throughout the colony and
 the sentences are warmly approved. The
 explanation given for the long delay is that
 although the death of the girl was the occa-
 sion of suspicion and inquiry among the
 British subjects, mostly natives of Sierra
 Leone, at Onitsha in 1877, every attempt to
 find out the truth of the case met with the
 greatest difficulties, many people who were
 in position to give evidence being them
 selves more or less implicated in the affair.
 But for the determination of & MT. Haas
 troop the matter " uld not have seen the
 light at all. It is satisfaction to know that although the ex- missionaries have adopted
 European names they are natives of Africa. The New York Times says the Republican party's message to President Arthur reads
 something like this Mind your own busi- ness, which is not that of interfering in the local politics of your own or any other State. Cease trying to be ward politician and the Executive of the Nation at the same time Leave msn like John J. O'Brien, Stephen B. French and John F. Smyth to their own de- vices Try to expand your political vision be- yond the area to which you have been accus- toned to confne it. You are not ignorant of the ruaiments of statesmanship advance be- yond them and confide in the people rather than the politicians. Be assured that when | you intrigued to folst the claims of Roscoe Conkling on disgusted constituency you ! made fatal blunder then when you hum ply tried to console him under defeat with 8 ! judgeship of the Supreme court you insulted public Intelligence; that when you lent your ! self to work his revenge and that of his mas I ter, Gould, against Governor Cornell you ! aroused the indignation of every thinking [ man in this State and sowed distrust of your ! administration wherever honesty and manli- ! ness are reckoned among political virtues. Have a mind of your own be the president of nation,' not of a narrow and vindictive ! faction of your own party. The country may be brought to admire Chester A. Arthur 1 as he may be; it has emphatically condemn cd Chester A. Arthur as he is."
