 Our only chance lies in earnest work in quiet way. Organize clubs, and have it understood that every man turn out on election day. Keep your matters to yourselves. Guard a. gainst traitors be careful with writ ten matters that will give intelligence to the enemy. Get our plan under stood among the friends all over the country.

Mr.. Holman Says 1t Is Able to
Paw.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Representative Hol-
man, Of Indiana, says that the Union Pacific
railroad is able TO pay its Indebtedness to the
government, and should be compelled 10 do
so. 1.-The question:" said he, sis not SO much
what the commissioners say about it. This
might be well enough If it were not for the
fact that the general public know and the
members Of the house know, beyond ques-
ton, that the assets Of these ailroads greatly
exceed their liabilities, and they are amply
able To discharge their Indebtedness to the
government. They could pay OF the entire
debt Of 100000 900 that they owe the govern
ment, and could pay up their stock, which
amounts to about S64 900 900, without the
least injury to their corporations. Formerly
there were six distinct corporations, now they
are consolidated into four. The whole region
OF country is dependent upon these main
trunk lines. The system Is an immense affair.
They will never let 60 of it to the government.
They can easily issue new bonds for the pay
ment OF their Sl64, COG, 600 indebtedness. Tn
question Is one which needs no argument.

bound To do 70"
