MONOPOLY CANADA.

The railways do not like waterway compe-
titioD, which is one great reason why there is
such opposition to the improvement OF the
Mississippi river navigation. Among our
neighbors in Canada we find the same hos
tility existing on the part of the railroads
toward the st. Lawrence river navigation.
To pass the falls in that river canals have
been constructed, and it is proposed 10 make
the canals free Of toll, as has been done in
New York with the Erie canal. This propo-
sition has aroused the railways 70 vigorous
opposition; they fear that free canals bring
reasonable railway rates. The people say
free canals, but the monopolizins railroads
resist with energy; they declare that to grant
the popular demand would be to iDjure them.
Not the good of the people but the good of
the railways is their object, and the railways,
especially the Canadian Pacific, have so
much power at Ottawa that it appears likely
the government, when the matter between
the people and the railways comes before it,
will decide in favor of the railways. We see
BY this that the Canadians are no more free
from rings and monopolies than ourselves
Like US they have the protective system, and
where that system hOurishes rings, extortions
and monopolies swarm and fatten upon the
hard-Won earnings of the people.

WESTERN UNION.
Another Vacations Suit Filed I'm the
United states Courts.

New YORK, January 5.-The United
States District Court has issued an order re-
turnable week hence, when argument will
be heard why provisional injunction should
not issue restraining the lease of the Gold
and Stock Telegraph Company to the West.
ern Union Telegraph Company. The stock
holder who brings the action, Frederick
Bells, of Connecticut, recites in the bill OF
complaint that the consideration for su ch
lease is an undertaking on the part OF the
Western Union Telegraph Company to pay
the Gold and Stock Telegraph Company six
per cent. per annum upon 81 1894 400 of its
stock, and seven per cent. on S4S7 200 Of the
bonds OF the Gold and Stock Telegraph
Company, then outstanding, the yearly rental
being 1924, 900.
DR.. Norvin Green, president OF the West
ern Union Telegraph Company, being inter-
| viewed on the subject, said that in all. leases
and cancellations of telegraphs in which
he had been concerned for the last twenty.

THE INCREASE OF RICHES.

That country is the happiest where 3
people, possessed of plenty, 80 divide out
that plenty that nobody is excessively rich,
nor any industrious, sober person destitute.
The laws, mostly indirectly, govern this di-
vision, and if they are good and fairly adj
ministered there is general comfort and little
extravagant luxury. Where great inequali-
ties arise, where there are very rich and
destitute poor, the laws are ill-made or i'm
perfectly administered. By observing how
a country's wealth ia distributed we may,
therefore, form some approach toward cor
rect Judgment as 10 the excellence OF itl
laws, or the contrary. Since the war prop
erty in our own land has become greatly
deranged in its distribution. We find indi-
viduAIs who have become possessed OF i'm.
mense wealth, and we see that rich class Il
in course of formation. We may infer
therefore, that something has been wrong in
our system of government. The inference II
lust. for the mass of the community have
been compelled to pay taxes for the benefit
of comparatively few persons. The con-
sequence of these continued distractions
from the pockets of the many, and
putting the produce into the pockets oil
the few, has been that the few became
a rich class. Make repeated collections

JEWISH BENEFIT SOCIETIES
Considering n Proposition 10 Unite she
Three Principal Orders.

- NEw YORK, January o.-Deleg ates from
the lodges of the Independent Order of B'nai
Birth, the Independent Order of the Free
Sons of Israel, and the Order Kesher Shell
Barrel met Sunday afternoon at No. 160
East Eighty-sixth street, in response to a call
for the purpose of considering the advisa-
bility Of uniting these three orders under
one management, this proposition having
already been approved in the District Grand
Lodge, No. 6, Independent Order of B'nai
Birth. A committee was then appointed 10
investigate the question. This committee,
in its report yesterday, stated that such a
union would prove of great advantage 10 all
concerned, since the capital would be in
| creased, expenses diminished, and the united
efforts of the members be directed to
the accomplishment of one and the
| same object. The membership would in
| crease by thousands and the funds by tens
| and hundreds of thousands. The committee
submitted tabulated annual reports OF the
three Grand Lodges for the year ending
| 1881, which showed that the Independent
Order of B'nsi Birth had seventy -four lodges
and S946 members; its total receipts were
$1S4,663 SO, and the total disbursements for
| amounts paid for endowments, for relief, and
for general expenses were STA 1893 08; the
general capital OF its lodges was S214 265 81
The Independent Order of the Free Sons Of
Israel had fifty-fou lodges and 1882 mem
bers; its total receipts were Sl33, 1886 IL; the
general capital OF its lodges was $50, S31 81
The Order Kosher Shell Barrel had seventy
lodges and a membership of 1872; the tota
receipts were s93, $50 q, and the total die
bursements S90,766 So; the general capital
of its lodges was S49, 156 %. The repor
showed that one half of the members of tue

SECOND DISPATCH.

The fire is now under control. Morrison,
Colwel d Pages rolling-miil, OBrien &
Powers knitting MILL, and the Patrick Gug-
erly Pilot Mills were totally destroyed. The
loss will exceed s25o,0O0; in sured for two
thirds.
Tue fire originated in the wheel-pit of the
rolling-mill. Work WAS suspended last Fri
day for repairs, and was to be resumed this
morning. During the severe cold last night
The water was frozen in the pit. The en-
sineer began thawing it out by the usual
process, when, by some accident, the oil
caught fire, and the flames spread with won
derful rapidly. The fremen did splendid
work, and successfully diverted the fire from
the central portion of the city, which in
cludes the great knitting manufactures. A
more rapid IRE never was seen. Inside of
one hour from the time the oil toek fire the
entire works had been consumed and nothing
was left but the furnaces and their chimneys.
The flames drove the workmen away 30
quickly that they had no time 10 think OF
drawing the furnaces, hence the loss was
much greater than it otherwise would have
been, as the iron will now cool in them
| and they will then have 10 be taken
apart. The total loss of the rolling mill il
now estimated at $500, 900; insurance, about
$4,000. The flames were driven 20 the Pi
10. Mills, which we're soon enveleped. The
| eight was grand one. The FIRE ran riot
through oily and combustible material, auo
communicated from one story 10 another
with great rapidity. Within FIVE minutes
the immense brick structure was totally en-
/ veloped in flames, and the hremen utterly
, helpless to stay its progress. Soon the gaso
line tank exploded, rending and leveling thu
walls. The loss on Gugerly's mill ia 500,
900; Insurance., 49, 900. Powers & O'Brieni
mill occupied a portion of the Pilot Mill
building, and was involved in the general
ruin. Loss, $50, 900; partially insured.
Latest-The loss on all property is nov
estimated at nearly S1,000,000; fairly in
sured, and distributed among large mum

from crowd for some individuals benefit,
and in time there will, naturally, be more
money in that one individuals pocket than
iu any other pocket among the crowd. Ger
tain public rights taken from the people and
transferred to individuals brings about I'M
even distribution, when the surrender of
privilege ia not accompanied with guaran-
tees that il shall be used for the public sd
vantage. That our railroads and other cor
poratIoBs have been able 10 make their pro-
ceediDgs unjust, SO that the people have
complained Of oppression and extortion, and
the property arising from the grant OF
privileges could be 80 managed az to make
a few men, who have never done any pro-
another proof Of bad government. In the
words Of the Atlanta Constitution, "The dol
lars OF the millionaires represent the blood
OF the poor, and the ease with which they
are accumulated by the favored ones shows
that the statesmanship Of the country has
not been equal to the task Of properly adj
iusting the relations that exist between
the mopopolists and the needy Ia
Dor of the country" The Kansas City
Times also says: "The formation Of
the large capital classes in our
country is its greatest peril to-day. Our
fathers, when they founded the govern
ment, forbade the laws of primogeniture
and entail, in order to prevent just what is
taking place now-the accumulation OF great
estates" A wealthy class once formed, in
termarrying and transmitting its wealth to
its descendants, becomes a powerful class,
imposes its will upon the community, and
has the laws so made as to favor its own ag-
grandizement aud increase of power and
wealth. In proportion as the rich class
forms at one end of the social scale, poor
class forms at the other. This IL just what
we see going on before our eyes to-day, and
il it proceeds the miseries Of the Old World
will be reproduced in this. We should at
once take the proper step 10 correct the evil
tendencies the spirit Of monopoly, favored
BY ill-made laws and corrupt or weak adj
ministratiop, is bringing upon US. The
remedy is to require persons, in making their
willie, to leave 10 a number OF heirs in pro-
portion TO the amount of property, so that
vast fortunes shall be distributed, not left in
the mass. In this way the distribution Of
property would be favored; as things are, we
see by what passes before US that sccumula-
ton is favored, which is social evil Of the
first magnitude.

hEkPMIS APPEAL
SATURDAY, "a: JANUARY s, 1883
AERaEK.

hESShEs
The Tennessee Legislature is now in ses-
sion, and we remind the members OF our
Gotten Exchange, our merchants and store
keepers, and business men generally, that
no effort should be spared on their part to
have a law enacted creating Tennessee
board Of railway commissioners. Such a
law was enacted by one branch last session,
but for want of activity on the part of the
friends Of the measure it failed to pass the
other branch. Such indifference must not
be manifested now. The Transportation
Committee of the Cotton Exchange can give
ample and multiplied reasons why Tennessee
commerce should be delivered from the in
cubus of unjust determinations, and the vari-
Gus exactions and distractions by which the
commerce of the State and the city are har-
raised and restricted. Our new Chamber of
Commerce can begin its duties in no better
way than in aiding this necessary work.
The disposition the Legislature has mani
tested already upon the subject clearly in
dictates that il our commerce is to continue
10 endure railroad determinations ard in
justice, it will be the fault OF those who sub
missively endure evils they are not energetic
enough to have removed.

A European Police congress.

BRUSSELS, January GA congress of
officers of police was lately convened in this
city to discuss duties and difficulties and to
interchange suggestions as TO detecting and
investigating crime. A Monsieur Van
Mighem, who is head commissary at Tour
nay, was the chairman, aud his opening ad.
dress reads like diagnosis-treating crime
as disease. There was Inuch filtration, SO
10 speak, through the chair, of experience;
and yet the whole report seems to suggest
that every delegate was keeping back the
best of his experience, as If he was boarding
his special capital. Doubtless the congress
has benefited continental police ideas as 10
the constant fight going on between the cum
ming of disrepute and the cunning that has
lawful origin and lawful object. The
congress is worth referring to as suggesting
a similar one in the United States. We
have congresses and conventions upon nearly
every popular interest, aud why not those
relating to police? II delegates from every
great city could meet to compare systems
and views, and indeed to arrange co-opera-
ton and plans of communication with a
telegraphic code, doubtless much might be
accomplished toward better police victories
over criminal enterprises.
