| IN the order in which they were re-
eeived. This was only Theoretically
true, but there was something of
moro vital importance than any
thing yet presented. What were
the relations of the Western
Union to the people for
long distances. The true policy
under such bill would be to have
rates, one each for short and long
distances. Senator Palmer referred
to what might be termed the moral
aspect OF the question. The most
difficult feature, he said, of the
whole question was that innocent
purchasers had invested their
money in this stock. He asked
should that matter be dealt with?
Hubbard said, in reply, that when
the innocent lay down with the
guilty they must suffer the conse.
quences. These persons had ssso-
Grated themselves with the guilty
Western Union, had said fifteen
years ago thai neither the capital
stock nor the bonded debt shouli be
increased except by consent OF
tvo-thirds of the stockholders.
The Western Union was
controlled by three or four
gentlemen in New York. It
controlled the market prices of all
paliticsl and general news sent over
it's wires, ard every single import
ant personal com municatiCn sent in
the country. This company was
controlled by no law except the ill.,
terest Of its owners. No State could
pass a lay which would have any
effect on this corporation. Was
there any other like power IN the
world? 1t would handle 100000
or messages ten years hence.
Through its agency it collected
market news in London and Paris.
A traction IF a penny
a pound on cotton was a
fortune to any man. They admit
ted no partnerships in this business.
He made no charge, but he be-
lieved this was too large a power to
entrust to any man or any company.
How is it with the pres? The
Western Union company and the
Associated Press made close cor
pora ton. He did not mean to say
there was any fault to be found in
the present management Some
time ago two papers In Ga iforDia
discuss ed the postal telegraph. The
rates to these papers were incr4 aset;
one paper died in consequences and
the other ceased to discnss the mat
ter. A pager which once critic zed Or
1on's course found its rates doubled
the neIt day. This was the power
this corporation held. Dr.. Green
had said the Yves elm Union would
be g a 1 to come and bid fer service
He (Hubbard) would favor the in
PRODUCTION of provision to permit
this. Evsrts had referred to the

Tho Postal TELEGRAPH.

/ Washington. 8.-Gardiner q.
Hubbard made an argument beiore
the Senate committee on posto6 lees
and post roads to-day upon the gen.
eral subject OF postal telegraph and
particularly in answer to the recent
argument By DR.. Marvin Green. He
said the Western Union Telegraph
Company according to the admission
tits president had been forced to be.
gin the work OF reducing rates, and
improving methods. Between the
years '6S and '78 the average rates
had been reduced from 1O4 to SO
cents per message; under this reduce
ton the number OF kilograms in
creased from 5000. 900 to 1900, 900
per year, snd the profits from
50. 100000 to $3.5OO.0OO Then a
change had taken place in toe policy
OF the Western Union company by
which other lines had been absorbed
and the reduction of rates cease.
From rs to the present time the re-
ductions were only niEe miles per
message. Was this the way to treat
the public? Did not the Western
Union know that the competition
would be brought out? The whole
history OF the company, excepting for
the period from '6S to rs would
teach this. II was this course OF the
Western Union that had led the
public to ask If the stockholders bad
not Jared we'll enough and il the pub.
lie had not sorue rights.
In answer to an inquiry of
Senator Palmer, Hubbard said
he supposed the stockholders
OF the Western Union hal actu-
ally. contributed in money the
amount of 100000, that the con-
tributiOns Of Western Union stock
holders and others who had built
competing lines now part of the
Western Union altogether was about
So. 100000.
Senator Hill asked what ground
the speaker had fer asserting that
under his (Hfll's) DILL there would
be an annual deficit.
Hubbard said in reply the aver>
age cost of sending telegram was
254 cents. This was for operators,
instruments. etc, the class Of eX-
penses which was proportioned in
some way to the distance, while the
remaining II cents was for me SEN
gers and offire expense s, in respect
to which distance was not mstefisl.
The average distance for kilograms
wsS 800 miles. A message sent
a shorter distance was handled at
smaller expense, while for dis
tance of more than 800 miles the
expenses were about the sum
named. Now. Uniform rate would
not increase the volume business
for a short distance, because the
mates are already below the proposed
rate. The increase On messages is
pledge tc the country. they
changed their policy in 1881. No
one would object to pay for this
stock before these consultations,
Was it supposed these "innocsnt"
stockholders didn't get their share
Of this watered stock? There were
no Innocent stockholders.
Senator Hill remarked that no one
would venture to assert that Con-
gress in the interest OF the
public could not disregard
these stockholders and estab-
lish a telegraph system for
the convenience of the people. There
were only about 1900 stockholders
in the Western Union Company,
and one man Owned more than half
the stock.
Hubbard, preceding, said the
rates were too high for the general
public. Evarts had said that the
Western Union forwarded messages

Asked These Members of the "Cabinct'-

vivors of Hoods Brigade, are Capt w.
&. Walsh, State Land Commissioner, and
ex-Gov. +. X. Lubbock, state Treasurer.
These gentlemen were the observed OF
observers ut Shady View Park to-day.

around the dancing folks ON the
hearty. lie was not In Il
talking way and deep-laid plot to draw
him out was charitably abandoned. But
the general question was asked: "ls
Governor ireland and his cabinet going
to be rcnominated and rc-elected"'
~ shall have to reply to that this
way" said the Treasurer. at will be
as II was with the darkcy.
In old slave times Il
negro said To his master that he wanted
new master. The master desired tn
know why the servant wanted to change.
The negro could not give any good rca-
son. but insisted on being sold To new
master. Time passed and the darkey
still kept In thfs notion. Suddenly he
changed his mind and said he did
not want to change his mind. His mas
ter wanted to know why. 'Becausc,' said
the darkcy, Il rather stick To the bad
that am than rush to tho bad / know not
of Now the people might want to take
the old crowd of ireland and his cabinet
rather than to risk another set.'
CAPT. WALSH
was found i'm summer house, smoking
and chatting with Col. II. g.. Bower.
Capt. Walsh, of course, always has the
lanl question uppcrmost in his mind.
In reply to question rs to what he
thought would be the live issue before
the next Legislature, he said the land
question most assuredly. He then
discussed the well-known views he held.
Said he: 81 look for Il fight to defeat the

to actual settlers and refusing
any price to spectators. That
is the sum of the whole matter. And
when the actual settler gets possession
ho will take care of himself, and there
will be no more need of this
eternal land legislation. The actual
settler, fixed in ownership, will
do more than anything else to take the
land question out of politics and at the
same time give ms yearly income in
interest besides the regular State taxes"
