Michigan Railroads.

A meeting of the Railway Association
Of Michigan, passenger department, was
held at East Saginaw Thursday Of last
week. An agreement similar to that of
1883 was adopted for the year 1885. The
old officers will continue in Office. A new
schedule of baggage rates was adopted,
as well as new rules for the handling
Of baggage. A theatrical agreement
was adopted, similar to that enforced by
the east bound roads out Of Chicago.
There was lengthy discussion in regard
to clsrgymsn's tickets aud half-fare per-
mits. A compromise was effected, where
by special reductions will be made to
clergymen at One-half or twO-thirds fare,
as may be decided upon by competing
lines running to junction points.

RAILwAYs I'M MIoHIGAN.

Synopsis of the Annual Report of the state
Commissioner.
According to the annual report OF W..
P. Innss, state commissioner Of railroads
there are fifty-nine railroad corporations
in existence In the state OF Michigan.
The properties of fifty-three of these are
of permanent character, and are class
ed as commercial roads, The remaining
six are known as log roads, being deyot-
ed exclusively to the transfer Of pine
logs from the forests. and will disappear
when the timber is cut. Since the last
report seven new companies with a cap
ital OF $6,7S2,O0O have formed to build
547 miles of road. There are 5,O44 miles
In the state, an Increase OF 70 miles over
last year, and there are only seven cOun-
ties in the lower peninsula without rail-
road Accommodations. The capital stock
of all the roads is placed at $3.50, 653, l55,
the cost $545,97S,532, and the indebted
ness at $32S,030,122. The excess of
stock and debt over cost is about $42, 000.-
600.

the roads in Michigan for the fiscal year

996. or the surplus $7,337,0O0 was ap-
piled to dividends, $l7OOOOJO for inter
est ON funded and floating debt and S.
SOL 900 for rentals.
The operating expenses were IL per
cent, over last year while the income in
come increased 26 per cent.
There were 7,104,324 tons of freight
moved during the year, at cost of 80
100 ola ceHt per mile. The cost in ILL
nOis was l.l8, in Wisconsin 1.75, and
Connecticut 1876. The rates of the Mich
igan Central road were 63-100 Of cent
for through freight, and LOB on local
freight. These figures show that the
Michigan Central charges less by two
thirds than the average rate of the New
England companies by which, in accord
ance with the terms Of its charter, 1t
must be regulated,
There were larger number of casual
lilies than for any other year in
the history of the department. Fifteen
passengers were killed and 81 injured,
81 employees killed and 283 injured, SO
others killed and 70 injured, total of
579. or these the reports from the COM
panies state that 344 were injured
through their own negligence, while ia
from undeubted accident: The total
number of passengers carried during the
year was 25,3l2,275 and from this it ap-
pears that one passenger was killed from
each 1,493,7 1874 carried. The most prolific
causes of accident to employees is in the
coupling of cars. and the next is the
falling of brakemen from trains. To
remedy this tho commissioner says that
automatic coupling and brake-pOwer
must supersede the present methods.
The commissioner concludes that in
the main the general railroad law of the
state is wisely adapted to the regulations
Of the corporations, and requires little
or no amendment. No complaints Of
discrimination in freight rates were re-
ported to the bureau the past year.-De-
trOit Post

Four scattering votes were cast.
A protest was made against votes be-
ing counted for Mr.. Henry, the reason
given being that the Constitution de-
clared all votes cast for person holding
a county Office at the time of the election
were void. The canvasssrs declared Mr..
Henry elected and certificate of cleo
tioR was given him.
No return Of county canvass was re-
ceived from Otsego, but instead the town
ship election returns of the county were
received and after discussion were can
vassed.

a Requiem.

Roses celestial bloom in heaven above,
Cattle red and garnered by truest hand OF love,
In Gods own garden, there Angels hover,
Inhaling the pure sweetness from every graft
ed flower.
Earth hath no claims to hold her fairest flowers,
They burst the bud, yet Wither in the hours,
A mother longs to keep her youngest born,
But It's another F'rose His garden TO adorn.
Sweet "Rose" by name and nature pure and fair,
Born to bud CD Earth but blossom there,
Thy gentle spirit Joins the heavenly choir,
To sing celestial praise forever there.
The Angels in sweet converse note each passing
hour,
And mark the rude blast that bends the frag-
lie flower,
And bending Ger the earth with gracious loving
power.
They pluck Earths fsirest, transporting to
their bower
Sweet sounds of harmony fill the passing breeze,
IT'S the angels joyous pastime to the music OF
the spheres,
Thus softning sorrows and soothing grief,
The burdened souls of earth find sweet relief.
For does not God with won1erous love,
Call from earth His own to endleS bliss above;
The gifts he gave to Him we must return
To adorn His kingdom, His wisdom learn.
Why should we mourn an absent soul,
Sped to eternity, that blisSful happy goal,
,Tis but moment ere parted ones MAJ meet,
And wander in that garden of fragrance sweet

EDITOR REPUBLICAN:-N Now that the

ward an efficient party worker for faith-
full services in the past, I think they
should not overlook the claims of F. P.
| Brook for Postmaster, He has long been
considered as one Of our best organizers.
and has probably done more than any
other man to keepthe Democratic column
solid in this city. Though never taking
a prominent part in street demonstrations
during political campaigns, leaying to
others the mounting Of their spurs and
fiery steeds to show off their agility and
horsemanship, he has preferred to be
more modest and humble. His advice,
always sought, seldom went unheeded in
the club, and but for the fact that he
desired to conciliate aid entirely disarm
the petty jealousies of the little-big
party nen who are always snapping at his
heels, the result of the late election in
Watertown would undoubtedly have been
still more satisfactory Friend and foe
will admit that his natural gift as an or
ganzer and manager has been the moving
power of the Democratic forces in this
city for many years. Now is the time
for their recognition. OF course the
small fry politicians who are jealous of
him and are always trying to destroy his
influence, will be dissatisfied, but the best
interests of our party require that these
men be assigned to back seats, and the
post of honor given to Mr.. Brook, whose
acknowledged leadership and judicious
management of our party affairs in the
past have kept the Republicans here in
such hopeless minority.

SarsapariIla. Having been afflicted all
