PRESIDENT EMF KENNEDY
In Danger of Being Ousted from the Control
of His Mythical Railway Company.

San Francisco Chronicle.
A rumor has been in circulation that meet
ing of the stockholders of the so-cailed Peoples
Railway Company of America had been held, or
was about to be held for the purpose of ousting
Emf Kennedy, the self-elected president of the
mythical board of directorsA Several persons
who were known to have been convinced by
Kennedy's glowing if contradictory, circulars,
and who had honestly subscribed and paid
their money, were called upon in relation to the
rumor At the office of the unincorporated
corporation none of those in charge were willing,
if able. TO give any information whatever, and
when Kennedy appeared that worthy admitted
that there had been a meeting of stockholders of
of one of the local boards, but that nothing of
any consequence whatever had taken place.
At the previous meeting of the board Kennedy,
with colossal and unbounded cheek had taken
matters into his own hands and run things to
suit himself. The rules of the institution, &C
cOrdng to the circulars, expressly state that only
those holding stock represented in the local
board could participate in the proceedings of
that particular board. When Kennedy took the
chair he was asked if he owned any stock repre-
scented by the board, to which he admitted he
did not Notwithstanding this, however he ap-
pointed committee of three to select the officers.
The committee after the farce OF retiring, re-
ported the names which had already been pre-
pared for them, which gave Kennedy the control
of the meeting At that meeting a protest was
to have been read against Kennedys ursurpa-
ton. his past. present and future acts and
against the negotiation of bonds but as these
matters were stated verbally, the protest for
that and other reasons which will be made
public in due time, was not used.
gentleman who most heartily regrets ever
having been drawn into the Peoples railway
scheme, said that the rumor, as stated, was not
exactly correct. for the reason that there was no
such body as the board of directors no such
person asa bona fde president of the company
and that the institution itself has no legal exist
ence. While he did not wish to deny that
movement was on foot to rid the subscribers of
Kennedy, yet at the same time he did not admit
it, He implied, however, by his manner and
tone, that something was to be done.
The meeting which Kennedy says took place
on Monday evening was of the local board 50.
AS there has been less than dozen boards or
gained it is very evident that the high number,
''53" was only another of the methods used to
deceive and for the apparent purpose of quilting
the people in communities where the scheme has
not been worked: 1t is also said that by Ken
nedy's orders, no money for any purpose what
ever be paid out by the socalled company's
officers.

disappoint those who sent him to khartoum
even if they expect the lmpossl bic OF INN.
Should that singular immunity from harm winch
made the superstitious Chinese soldiers think him
to bear a charmed life, at last fail him, his will
be no ignoble end. Whatever it may be, it will
nobly crown life of a sort WHICH is rare enough
in any age, and singularly rare in our own:
Perfectly unselfsh, devoted ever to high i'm
personal aims modest TO a fault, careless Of
glory and reputation for their own sake I'M
swervng in his love for mankind, unfallng IN
his readiness to make any sacrifices of fortune
or life whereby he may contribute to the advance
ment of his fellow-men, deeply religious, but III
no narrow sense, bearing a life which he feels to
be well-nigh intolerably heavy burden because
upheld by a solemn sense of its responsibilities,
a man truly without fear and without re
proach as the most chiVarous of the knights
of old seen in the light of the most fervid poets
imagination, Charles Gordon appears to us as
man wholly by himself and strangely out OF
place in this practical nineteenth century. HIS
stngle-hearted devotion to humanity has caused
those who have known him to regard him with
something of that reverence that men felt and
feel for Mazzini, for the founder of Christian
ity himself, whose ideal of life has been so fully
realized by these men. 1t is related that when
about to set out on his present mission to cen
trail Africa. he was one day, in conversation
with an English official of high rank, and draw
ing little volume from his pocket said that he
had there the clear solution of the problem before
him. The one with whom he was speaking sup
posed the volume to contain some carefully pre-
pared scheme of the campaign at hand but
found to his surprise that it was copy of the
limitation of Christ" Whether true or not,
the incident is characteristic of the man, and
of his firm belief that the foundation
principles of morality are the best precepts that
nations, no less than individuals, may follow.
His face is singularly attractive in its union of
strength and tenderness, with its expression at
once intellectual and sympathetic. In looking
anger with which he started out, weapon in
hand to avenge himself upon the treachercus
Chinese official who had betrayed him and made
sport of his honor of the quiet scorn with
which he repulsed the proposition that he him
self should play the traitor to the government
which had reposed confidence in him; Of the
smiling disdain with which he has put aside the
rich rewards that grateful governments have
sought to bestow upon him. 1t is true but
superiuous, for Mr. Forbes to say at the close
of his book mo difficulties will abate his loyal
courage; no stress of adversely will daunt his
gallant heart. For him life has ambition,
death no terror He will do his duty"

young English, which, to modest man, would
be evidence that the people do not want him to
represent them in Congress. The contest is
based on the ground that in Indianapolis the Re
publican voters were supplied with ticket
printed on plain white paper of unusual thick
Mesa paper which Senator Mcdonald learned
TO call the Spring back kind" while he was in
vestigating the Southern method of carrying
elections. Those who desired to vote against
English could not get any other tickets with
which to express their disapproval
of his candidacy. That enough Dem
oerats to defeat him took this
view the returns of the election proves beyond a
doubt. The entire Republican county ticket was
voted for in this city with the same tickets
which were voted against Mr. English yet they
defeated the Democratic candidates, and not one
of them has ever dared to bring contest before
the courts, the only tribunal to which they could
appeal They could go before a committee,
which would be governed by papism influences

Some Good Points About Republicanism.


There are some things about the Republican
party which l cannot help admiring. The most
wonderful thing it ever did was to formulate the
national banking act during the war period, and,
experiment as it was, it has stood substantially
as solid as the Constitution of the United States,
without material amendment. 1t was
a wise piece of craftsmanship. You could not
get such an act to-day. Congress lacks
craftsmanship. majority of Nom
bers in both political parties make
everything subordinate to their own ambition to
hold their seats. The banking act has no equal
except in two cases so far as Its soldity and per
manence are concerned-it is like the Bible, on
one hand, and the Episcopal Prayer book on the
other. Your party papers are generally shrewder
than ours in an exciting political campaign.
You are silent, as rule. on matters which ordi-
narily put an opponent on the defensive. In
1880 Garfeld's weaknesses were avoided, and
there was power of sentiment created about
the tow path of the canal | have noticed that
sentiment is a stronghold with the Republicans.
