A New and Gigantic Railway Scheme


The most extensive railway scheme of the
age has just been inaugurated at Indianapolis
1t is proposed to build two double-track
narrow gauge roads, traversing the country
in opposite directions from Now York to San
Francisco, and from Chicago to New Orleans,
thus giving railway connections as the pro-
jectors express it, from ocean to ocean and
from the lakes to the gulf"
Stock in eight series will be issued, each
series amounting to $2,500,000. The bonded
debt on the double track when equipped will
be $4,000 per mile, and on the single track
ST., 600 per mile, One hundred Of the stock
holders are to be from Indiana of whom sew
enty-five may be residents of Indianapolis.
The corporation is to be known as "the Peo-
pies Railway Company of America" Every
employe of the company is to be stock
holder, and the profits arc to be divided on this
basis. The articles of association provide for
II 900 miles of narrow gauge road, with capi-
tai stock of $36, 100000. A national syndicate,
with headquarters at indianapolis, composed
of 250 stockholders, is provided for, to be
elected from the boards of stockholders on
tho lines of the roads. Eighty-threo persons
have already subscribed $4,000. 1t is an
nounced that when ten millions of stock is
subscribed by the people capitalists in Cali
fornia stand ready to take tho remainder o
livestock. Amongthe Indianapolis stockhold
ers are some of the best known and mos
wealthy men of that city. Much confidence
is expressed in the rapid subscription of tn
stock, and the early commencement of actua
work on the roads

1T might have been expected that among
business men some distrust would be felt in the
change of the tariff which has just gone into
effect. Business, however, in all departments,
shows such good outlook that we need not ap-
prehend any change so serious as to derange the
general prosperity which is now so apparent
all over the country. The price of grain has
declined, it is true, but this is due to the al
most certainty of a largely increased crop
The money market continues easy, notwith-
standing the reports of many failures. The
failures reported have been generally among
speculators. The outlook all over tho couls
try points to heavy crops and good and pros
porous business.

THE New York Sun, on tho subject of tho
election of speaker of the next house of
representative has, this to say
Upon one subject the people are united IRE
spcctiye of party. They want honest aud eco
nomical government, and the house of repre-
scntatves can meet the popular expectation by
simple and direct methods. The public expendi-
lures have swollen inordinatcly. onices have
been multiplied improperly, and excessive reve
nues are collected to create surplus for extrava-
gance and spoliation.
Amajorty of sixty four is not easily managed,
with the loose discipline that has heretofore ex-
listed on the democratic side; but as the conduct
of this majority will have most important innu-
ence upon the chances of the next democratic
candidate for the presidency, the need is SO much
the greater that the speaker Of the house OF rep
resentatyes should be n man able TO deal with
the questions of reform that will p resent them
selves for settlement.
Samuel J. Randall is that sort of a man.
All of which is respectfully referred to the
editor of the Louisville C0luier-Jou1ldI.

SOME poor Irish immigrants to this country
have been refused the privilege of landing on
the shores of the Gland of the free and the
home of the brave" because their exchequers
did not show that they had money enough to
support them. Last Sunday twenty-four
Mormon missionaries landed at New York with
ZOO prosclytes 10 the Mormon faith, and they
took passage for Salt Lake City without
hindrance. Are they not likely to give more
trouble than twice or thrice the number OF
poor Irish people who come to this country
ready and willing to work, and whose teach
ings OF morality are more in accordance will
our ideas than are those of the Mormons? Con
gress should give attention to the laws of i'm

THE people of Washington have fallen into
the sensible habit of observing the fourth of
July as becomes quiet, intelligent citizens.
The juvenile portion of the population
indulge in explosive demonstrations of
delight, but the more dignitied por-
tion of the community have learned to
look upon this sort of thing with liberation
rather than sentiments Of approval. They
do not like nerve torturing noise, but endure
it rather than run the risk of being
suspected of disloyaltv They have dis
couraged any and all attempts to get up
imposing celebrations by the district authori-
ties, and will doubtless continue to do so.
Distaste of barbarous noises does not argue a
lack of patriotism. Therefore let us have a
quiet, peaceful fourth, unmarried by fires and
the customary train of casualties.
