BINDING THEN HAND AN roor.

Oakland I'iddtc: 1t Is claimed by the
anti-raihoad bosses and all their followers
that they know much more about the
proper method of managing roads than the
present owners, or rather agents of the peo-
pie, as they call them. What they have so
far proposed To do, is only TO bind them
hand and foot by law. This the railway
men testify, will, first, prevent any further
extension of existing roads and, second,
so far cripple them as to greatly impair
their efficiency. They further aver that
capital cannot be obtained for investment
in railways while hostile legislation is inn
pending over their heads. The threatened
evils are 50 great as to appal the lesser
owners of railroads if not the greater. But,
last ofall, there come threats ofmobs, riots,
tearing up tracks and burning depots-
This, if continued will become so serious
as to paralyZe in time the energies of the
men of capital who are pouring out
their thousands daily 20 keep
the roads in repair and running order. If
Judge Wallace really believes the people
own the railways, and that thosein control
are using them to oppress and rob the ship
pers, and people generally. why does he
not vigorously move upon their works, take
for the people their own property that it
may be used for their benefit? II he dare
not do this for fear the Courts will not fol
low Judge Blacks doctrine then why not
join with bosses Hearst and Buckley put
their hands in their pockets, pool theirpos-
sessions and buy out the whole concern
They have certainly played the bear upon
the market long and strong enough, to
have cheapened the roads to the lowest
figure now Is their time TO buy. Capital is
with them, political economy glorieS in
them, they are no doubt the wise men and
great men of the State, let them crown their
lives by becoming railway kings of the
noblest and most benevolent type.

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS MARRIED SILENCE

CANTON (Ohiol, February l5sh.-An
event of considerable Importance has oc.
Cured in little farm. house few miles
from this city, within few days. Mrs.
Devices spoke to her husband. This is
what she said
William, believe | am dying"
However, she did not die, and she is now
nearly well again. But the fact that she
spoke at all to her husband has greatly ex-
cited those who are acquainted with the
old couple. They are past three score
This is the first time either has spoken to
the other for nearly quarter of century,
though each has spoken to other persons
daily sll the while.
Nearly twenty five years ago Mrs. De.
wees desired her husband to do some
trifing thing which he regarded as either
impossible or unwise, and he refused. She,
becoming petulant with disappointment,
rashly exclaimed
"If you don't I'll never speak to you
again as long as live"
" | not only will not do it, he said,
aroused to anger, {" but will not speak to
you until you speak first to me-"
The issue thus joined lasted longer than
either imagined it would. Until the re-
cent night spoken Of neither Mr.. nor Mrs
Devices ever uttered word to each other.
The quarrel was soon over and the best OF
feeling was resumed between them. They
have lived together ever since, contented
and harmonious, the enly cloud upon their
happiness being their silence TO each other.
But even this had its advantages When
Mr.. Devices wanted TO say anything to bis
wife he would say, for example, to one of
the children 60 Jennie, tell your mother
l wish she would sew another button on
my overall4." Or the mother would say
John, tell your father to bring some
sugar, oil, pepper and a spool of thread,
No. SO, from town to-day" At first it was
difficult for them to repress the impulses
to speak to each other, but being persons
OF strong will they stuck doggedly to their
resolutions until habit made it easy to do SO.
4" Yes, said Mr.. Devices TO neighbor
one day, "we have not spoken for pretty
near twenty five years. 1t has sometimes
been little inconvenient, and of course it
seems silly to most people, but it has been
blessing to us in many ways. That one
quarrel was our last. l know from my
disposition and hers that, if we had kept
on talking, we should also have kept on
quarreling more or less. Possibly we'd
have got worse, because VIC were both
pretty high-strung, and it might have gone
SO far that we'd have been divorced"
On the night when the silence was broken
Mrs. Devices had been i'll for several days,
and about l o'clock in the morning she
awoke in great pain, and thought her end
had come. In her agony she called to her
husband
William, believe 1 am dying"
The old couple have been talking to each
other ever since.
