THE SUN.
FOR
1 8 8 9.
And for tnc Democracy.

THE sun believes that the campaign for
the election of a Democratic Congress in 1870
AMI Democratic President IN lS92 should
begin on or about the fourth OF next Aarch.
THE sun Will be on hand at the beginning
and until the end of the most interesting and
important political conflict since the war,
doing It's honest utmost, as ever to secure the
triumph Of the Democratic party and The per-
manent supremacy of the principles held by
Jefferson, jackson, and Ilden.
The great fact OF the year is the return 10
absolute power of the common enemy OF all
good DemUCrats-the political ofgnnl-a alton
for whose overthrow THE SUN fought at the
front for fifteen Yeas, the memorable years
of Grant and the Fraud Hays, and CARRIED
and Arthur.
1t is the same old enemy that Democrats
now confront, and he will he intrenched IN
the same strong position. II has been carried
nee by brave and hopeful lighting. DO you
not believe with The Sun that the thing can
be done again? Walt and scr.

Effect of the Snow on the Roads,
tons On Gould's Roads,
General News.

For the first eight months of its opera
ton, from Nov. L, 1856, to July 1, 1887,
says the Chicago Times, the average
gross revenue per ton per mile received
by the Chicago, Burlington q Northern
was $.0056S, but a trifie more than one
half of cent per ton per mile. By be-
ing able to haul during those eight
months an average of 337 tons to train
and 15 tons of freight to a car, in spite
of these extremely low rates the road
managed to show net earnings of S419,-
206. The tonnage during these eight
months was made UP of the poorest pay
ing class of freight. The largest item
was coal, Of which 24O67o tons were
handled, making 1876 per cent of the to-
tai tonnage. Lumber and forest prod
uctS furnished another Is per cent;
114,0S8 tons of -four furnished 16 per
cent; grain IL per cent, and merchan-
disc and other articles Sper cent. With
such preponderence of low-claSS freight
it is wonder that any net earnings
were made. The average gross earnings
per train mile were only S1l5; expenses
were S83; net earnings S32. Operating
expenses for eight months were, includ-
ing taxes, 81, 155, ,763, divided as follows:
General traffic expenses, S155, ,S9S; maln-
tenance of way, ETC., S261, ,6T; passen-
ger traffic expenses, S205,2o4 freight
traffic expenses, s532, ,933. Included in
these expenses were amounts paid for
balance of passenger and freight car
mileage, aggregating in eight months
s115,566. The proportion Of operating
expense to gross earnings was 70. 2 per
cent. During the greater part of these
eight months the road was operated on
the policy marked out by its projectors.
After that it was hampered by an Obli-
CATION to protect the greater interests of
the Chicago. Burlington q Quincy. Con-
sequently the latter half of the year does
not make favorable showing.
