A Railroad Decision.

J. f. LOCKWOOD, ticket agent, recently
addressed letter to the Railroad Commits
sioners in which he said: "A passenger
without ticket takes the train on our main
line to point on branch, the journey be-
ing included in the run of two conductors.
For instance: A passenger takes the train
at Clarksburg, on the main line. for Null
berry, station on the Cherryvale division.
The main line takes him to Arcadia, the
conductor collecting excess. AT Arcadia
the passenger takes the train on the Cherry
vale division, and the conductor on that
train collects excess from Arcadia to Null
berry, He wished the board to say if this
was legal TO which the board answered:
1--WE are of the opinion that the proper
course to pursue is for each conductor to
collect the excess due upon the cash fare
paid to him. That this construction OF the
law would be correct is obvious from two
considerations. First-The conductor col
1ecting the first fare to the end of his run.
or to station on another division to which
his run does not extend, can not anticipate
that the passenger will not purchase a
ticket at the station where he takes train
on such other division, and thus save por-
ton Of the excess he would otherwise have
TO pay. This is a right the passenger may
avail himself of, and of which the conduct
or may not deprive him. Second-The con-
ductOr Is not vested with the right to sell
tickets, but to collect fares, either in tickets
or cash, covering the distance of his run
but if he collected excess beyond his divis-
ion he must necessarily give the passenger
ticket or other token showing such apay-
ment. 1t would not be reasonable to re-
quire railroad companies to make ticket
agents of the conductors

GOVERNOR SwINEFORD, of Alaska.
told some remarkable things to the
members of the House Territory Com
mittee recently. The object of his
visit to the committee was to urge them
to prepare Congress to give a terrific
rial form of government to Alaska. He
told the committee the United States
got a treasure when they bought that
region; that almost any kind of pro-
duce could be raised there: that coal
was abundant, and gold mine
worked there in most primitive man.
ner yielded fifteen dollars per ton and
cost only one dollar and twenty-six
cents per ton to mine. There was, he
said, enough ore in sight to last one
hundred years at this rate. If the
members would go TO Alaska with him
he would show them canoe cut from
a single leg which would hold sixty
people for voyage, In the right sea-
son of the year he would take them on
