Tie Pacific Railroads.

The New York World, in an exhaustive
article. declares its opposition TO the propo-
sition before congress OF extending for fifty
years the indebtedness Of the Union Pacific
railroad TO the government. which amounts
TO over S5O,0Og,O 600 1t says that the extern
sion Of the debt would amount to the same
thing as lean.
The Central Pacific is also trying to get
IS Indebtedness TO the government, amount
ng 10 about $50, OOO. 900. extended. Its case
is even less deserving than that Of the
L Mon Pacific. The Central Pacific secured
large subsidies, and out of its profits and
earnings built the great Southern Pacific
system Of railroads and steamship lines
Now, when the government asks for
its own, the Central Pacific directors
declare that they are unable TO meet their
obligation. Their request for an extension is
supplemented by an audacious plea for q
reduction of the interest on the lean of
from 6 to 5 per cent, when neither any
part Of the principal nor interest has ever
been paid
These railroads plead that they have
spent large sums in building extensions and
making Improvements, and that to their eff
forts is mainly due the development and
Or osperity Of the territory through
which they pass. This is in
a measure true, but it was mere business
enterprise which others would have under
taken, probably, if they had had the oppOr-
tunity. The men who secured the subsidies
for the Pacific roads did not go into these
venturee for their health or as a matter of
philanthropy, but to make money. And
for every dollar Of their own that they in
vested they got fifty in return.
The Central Pacific's treasury was drained
of every cent to build the Southern Pacific,
and the Union Pacific also used in a similar
manner the money it should have paid to
the government.
The government should be reasonable
with its debtors, but do not these roads ask
for more than is reasonable! They IN
doubtedly do.
Let US illustrate their position. A. B.
goes into business in Savannah He has
unlimited credit, and he buys large bills of
goods. Without the knowledge of his cred
itOrs he establishes a branch house in
Atlanta, which he supplies with goods from
the Savannah store. and builds up an i'm
mense establishment, adding continually
to its size and stock from the same
source of supply. Having exhausted
the stock of the Savannah store, he
tells his creditors when they demand
their money that he is bankrupt.
This is precisely what the Union and
other Pacific railroads have DONE Under
the circumstances why should the govern
ment grant their requestsl 1t is possible
that by granting them it would stand bet
ter chance Of getting its money than by re-
fusing them. That is the only reason why
the requests should be considered at ALL

Estimates recently made by competent
authorities at Washington of the traffic or
the great lakes show that ie is of greater
magnitude than is supposed. "The tonnage
through the Suez canal, carrying the COM
merca of all the nations of the west to the
Indies, is known to be about 100000 tons,
while that through the st. Marie above De-
troit is 1900 900 tons. The total tonnage of
the lakes is estimated at over 1000, 900,
while that of London and Liverpool to
gether is only 3O,OOO,OOO." Figures like
these give an idea of the magnitude of the
traffic on the great lakes and between thi:
country and Canada.

Silver troubles me RepubIicans.


Silver is causing the republicans a great
deal OF trouble. 1t looks as If i, were going
! 10 cause them great deal more. Il may
disturb the harmony OF their party 70 an
extent that they have not yet thought prob
able. In their last national platform they
inserted silver plank in which they ex-
pressed themselves as extremely favorable
to silver. This they did to please the silver
men aud catch their votes. IL is not prob
able that they ever intended to carry out
in good faith the implied promise which the
silver plank of their platform contains.
The silver men, however. are demanding
the fuli1ment of that promise, and they are
very much in earnest They are so much
in earnest that they refuse to be bound by
their party caucus.
The President has announced that he
will not sign any silver bill that does not
have the approval of the majority of his
party in congress. The bill now pending in
the House has not the approval Of ma
jority Of the republicans of either the HOUSE
or the Senate, and it is not likely to get it.
1t is an altogether different bill from what
it was wnen il passed the House. The Sem
ate by amendments made it free coinage
bill Only fifteen republican senators voted
for it. while twenty-five voted against it.
Should the House approve it in its present
shape it is quite certain that the President
would veto it.
The President is evidently determined to
maintain the position he has taken with
respect to silver. He is reported to have
said recently that he expected TO return to
the practice of the law at the end Of his
term If he has no hope of getting a second
term he will make no concessions TO the
silver men. He will not attempt to please
them, but will do what he thinks is for the
best interests of his party.
Speaker Reed is exerting himself to pre-
vent the House from concurring in the
Senate amendments TO the silver bill. 1t
will do 50 If it gets a chance, but a majority
Of the republicans will not vote to concur.
The republicans, as party, do not want
free silver coinage. They are afraid of it.
A good many of them, however, want it
and enough republican congressman will
vote for it to pass free coinage bill.
II such a bill should be passed
and the President should veto it there
would, in all probability, be an issue which
would cause division in the republican
ranks. To prevent such a condition
those members of his party who are in
harmony with him are trying to do. If
they don't succeed some interesting devel-
opments may be looked for in the Repub-
hcan party.

Editor John Atkins, of the Rocky Noun
tain Net0s, Of Denver, has become so firmly
impressed with the importance that the
next nominee of the democratic party for
the presidency should be western mau,
that he is telling his readers about it in large
black type. Furthermore, he has
had himself interviewed on the subject
in a Chicago paper. 1--WE of the
west,n said he to the interviewer, "had al
most rather see a western republican Presi-
dent than an eastern democrat Mr..
Atkins is in the habit of using the editorial
"we" very recklessly, especially when he
applies it to the entire democracy of the
west in expressing his individual opinion
He wants free coinage of silver, and as long
as the west gets that be cares
not who is President. Nothing
could be more selfish. The candidate of the
Democratic party in 1892 must be man
who will represent equally the east, west,
south and north, not any particular section
or interest. and that man is likely to be
Grover Cleveland unless there is a great
change in popular sentiment before that
time

The silence about the direct tax bill
can be heard all the way from Washington.
This bill, pet measure of the republicans,
was defeated in the last congress
after one of the hardest fights ever known,
but was again taken up this session and
passed by the Senate. The bill proposes to
appropriate about ST., 0Oo. 900. and assurance
of its passage was given to the doubtful
states to win them over to the republican
ranks, but these millions are needed for pen
sions, and another promise must be broken.
In the meantime the legislatures of Ohio
and Iowa have appropriated the money due
to them under the bill, the former for a
soldiers home. and the latter for soldiers
monument. These states are more doubtful
than ever now-about getting the money.

be detained there, but on his return he will
appear on the stage in play especially
written for him. 1t is his intention to ele-
vate the stage, and there is no doubt that he
can do it. He has demonstrated his ability
to do this with and without gloves. The
play will be built about Sullivan, SO to
speak, who will appear in the first three
acts In dress suit. This suit is nothing,
however, compared with the one he has in
Mississippi.

Compared with last year, the cotton ex-
ports for May were less than half this year,
but on the whole there was an increase in
the shipments to foreign lands, and also a
favorable showing for better prices. The
total exports during May, 1899, were AZ
GIG, 14O pounds, valued at S5.00s, 637, and in
May, 1889, were 10I. PSI, 564 pounds, valued
at $40, 1868. 1871. The total exports for the
nine months ending May 81 show an in
crease from 2.245, 211, ASP pounds, valued at

The outcome Of the non-partisan move
ment in Maine for the repeal of the prohi-
bition law and the substitution therefor of
the local option system will be watched
with great interest. Many leading men in
both parties have come to the conclusion
that constitutional prohibition is failure,
and that the local option system is more
effective A license party will probably be
formed, and the impression exists that il
will have powerful support.
