The Pacific Railroad Indebtedness

| .-S - @SsS3AA
The last Presidential election
confirmed the railroad monopolies
of the Pacific slope exercise a po-
tent influence upon the politics of
that section, and especially in Cali
fornia. On fair vote, where mon
eyed influence Eliminated from the
campaign, no question but Califor-
MIA would be largely Democratic,
but the railroad influence carried
the election in face of an opposition
majority. The following from the
San Francisco Examiner exposes
the reasons that prompted the rail
road companies to oppose the Dem
ocratic party:
1t is unnecessary to repeat here
the admitted fact that the manner
in which the Pacific roads have
evaded their obligations to the gov
eminent is one of the most forbid
ding chapters in the history Of cor
poration greed and dishonesty. The
subject, however, while generally
familiar to the people of this coast
from long discussion, is not 50 full
ly understood by the people east of
the Rock Mountains. But when
they come to see it as we do; when
they discern in it, as we have done,
a treacherous alliance with politics
and law, and have seen the rela-
tons the corporations sustain to the
people, they will be even louder in
their demands for redress than we
have been. There is one PROPOSE
ton, however, which all compre-
bend. These roads owe the gov
eminent slo0,Ooo,ooo principal,
and three or four millions in interest
annually added to the debt. Ought
they to pay it?
"A Times-Democrat special from
Washington, Of date December
18th, says: "Mr. Blanchard intro

into whose hands the work of i'm

ed. The commission is to be com
posed Of three engineers of the ar
my, who are to serve without extra
pay. The bill asks the appropria-
ton Of 100000 to improve Red
river from it's mouth to it's headwa-
ters."
