Government Control.

Government Control.
Unless railroad authorities in New
York are mistaken, Jay Gould has
perfected an arrangement which will
put him in control Of greater rail-
way mileage than any person or cor
poration Of the world. He now
controls, or is believed to control, an
aggregate of 2O,S19 miles Of rail-
way, and the new deal will put into
his hands 1926 miles more, making
him the master of 29,239 miles of
railroad, gridironing the continent
from ocean to ocean, with outlets at
the most important seaports, and
with lateral roads and feeders in al
most every direction. If his plans
are carried out, Gould will hold the
control of something like $500, OOO,-
900 of railroad property, which
would make him the autocrat and
dictator of the railroad world of the
United States. His will would be
law, and no railroad corporation
would be strong enough to stand
against him or attempt to oppose
him. Beyond this there could be
but one step, and that would be, OBJ
viously, the assumption of control
by the United States government
Since no aggregation of private cap
ital could be devised which would
be powerful enough to hold it's own
the only recourse would be for the
people, in their national corporate
capacity, to take these railroads, IL
common with others, out Of GOuld'f
hands into their own, and operate
them for their own benefit. 1t il
not consistent with free institutions
of popular government that an indi
vidual should possess such enormous
power as the control of the entire
transportation facilities of the coun
try would give him. There would
be more menace to the liberties o
the nation from such source thar
from standing army of million
men. The limit of the private &C
QUESTION of property has never beer
fixed in this country, and perhaps i,
cannot be; but in such case al
this, it must be apparent that the
line would be overstepped, and thar
the safety of the nation would prob
ably demand the speedy surrender
of railroad control into the hands O
the government. = San Francisco
Chronicle.

great deal OF la grippe mere. Oh
fortunately I have had to nurse a
bad attack Of it myself for week
past. The weather has been fine
and the malady has been on the de-
cline for few days. want to
note one fact: death from la grippe
when complicated with other dis
eases is quite common; but Ia
grippe, pure and simple, with no aid
from other ailment, has killed three
or four per day here.
Down on Park Row, in a shop
window, are exhibited some sheets
of American tin, and the New York
Press makes a great blow about our
American tin industry and tin
mines. l always had an aversion
to humbugs, and the Press would
doubtless call me an idiot if l were
to tell it what l now write, that
there is not a single tin mine in
America that has ever produced one
ton of tin. Tin mines in this coun-
try are only to be found in Repub-
lican newspaper Offices. They are
discovered there for political pur-
poses. The Iron Age says: ut
must be confessed by the most ar
dent friends of the new (tin) indus
try, that the progress thus far made
has been Disappointing"
Every sheet that has been made
in St. Louis, Chicago, Pittsburg, or
anywhere else, the iron sheets were
dipped in imported tin and in i'm
ported pots.
The great tin mines in the Black
Hills are a delusion and a fraud.
They were newspaper mines. The
Hardware and Metal Review, for
April, says: According to the re-
port of the committee appointed by
the Omaha Board of Trade, there is
no tin in the Black Hills in paying
quantities. No, neither is there
any, anywhere else on this CONT.
nent, so far as known. All the
"tin" stories of the last six months
were simply political falsehoods to
catch gudgeons.
An important matter, however, is,
says a writer on this subject, "that
when the new duty on tin plate be-
gan to take shape in congress, the
demand for the article increased
and this caused the price to advance
Everybody wanted to lay in a large
stock before the duty should take
effect. The price rose to such ar
extent and the quantity taken was
so great that it is estimated by
good judges that the WEIGH manu-
facturers have reaped an extra profit
since last summer, equal to the en-
tire value of their plant. For this
theory they are indebted to our Mr.
Mckinley and our Mr.. Aldrich

A correspondent Of the Savannah
Morning Neavs who recently visited
St. Simon's Island made trip to the
old Cannon Point house at the upper
end of the island.
The Cannon Point was owned and
occupied by Alexander Hamilton in
the early part of the present century.
1t is an old tabby building, and must
have been a very handsome one in its
day. The rooms are "a feet square
and 16-foot ceilings. It is said that it
was at this house where the ill-feelings
between Hamilton and Aaron Burr
which terminated in the celebrated
duel resulting in Hamilton's death
was first generated. Burr was Hamil-
toms guest at the time. He wrote his
name and the date upon a pane of
glass in window on the front parlor
Of the house, probably with diamond
ring, and the name remains to-day as
when it was written:
"Aaron Burr, Feb. 8, 1904"
The old house is untenanted and
has fallen into decay.

NO NORTH, NO SOUTH.

The Alliance knows no North, no
South, no East, no West, or other 10.
cality. 1t believes in the fatherhood
of God and the brotherhood of man.
Its political views are similar to those
entertained and acted out by Thomas
Jefferson. 1t inculcates liberty,
equality, and fraternity. 1t believes
more in the pen than in the sword.
It aims to educate its members SO that
they may vote for the right men and
the right measures and in the right
place. The Alliance does not propose
to right the existing wrongs with bull
lets, it aims to remove the glariQg po-
litical and social evils with properly
educated hearts and minds, and with
intelligently cast ballots. Ballot wars
are more humane than conflicts with
bullets. We do not believe in blood
and cold steel. Let us be a firmly
united brotherhood, for the truth and
for the right, and the combined forces
Of Shylock's and selishness can not
prevail against us. Let the work Of
organizing and educating proceed and
the hitherto greatly oppressed and inn
poverished farmer will see better times.
By all means let us proceed in unison
for 'sunited we stand, divided we fall"

Cotton is called the money crop OF
the South, but it brings to the farmer
less money for the time, labor and
money spent than any other crop It
is money crop to the speculator who
buys a thousand bales at cents and
sells the same the next day for 4
cents-but this is not the farmer, re-
member. The bear of to-day is work
ing every scheme that perverted In
genuity can suggest to reduce the
price of cotton while in the hands OF
farmers, 80 that he can buy at a low
figure; then he becomes u bull and
tries by equally unfair means to toss
the price as high as possible, so as to
sell at an advance. The farmer raises
but one crop of cotton in a year; the
speculator can raise and sell a crop
every day if he chooses, and amass
large sums of money from q very
small margin. Cotton is not money
crop for the man who raises it.-1eras

Ex- Congressman j. Hale Sypher OF
Louisiana was at the Hoffman recent

Sypher now makes his home in WASH

bag era. In conversation the other
day with number of friends Colonel

est men in the United States. "Any
ordinary man." Mr.. Smalley added,
"can 60 to Congress if he gets votes
enough, but Mr.. Sypher, so ! am in
formed, served three consecutive terms
within 5000 votes Of any election.
How he did it no one knows, but the
record will show that Mr.. Sypher ap-
peared at Washington with certif-
cate of election at three Congresses.
He was permitted to hold his seat and
draw his salary until the closing days
of each session, when he was regular
ly turned out. Mr.. Sypher kept this
up For six years, andit seems to me
