a RAILWAY COMMLsSION DOES NOT

a RAILWAY COlI1fISSION DOES NOT
CRIPPLE RAILROAD BUILDING.
The Shendun Neors of Friday has reply
to the Staunton VINDICAToR's Few
kindly words to the Banner Bearers 1t
is written by a gentleman who is fully
equipped to say all on the railroad side Of
the present fight that can be said, and to
Say it well and attractively. He says:
The Staunton INDICATOR is the first paper
in Virginia, SO far as we know to openly adj
vocate the passage of the Kent railroad COM
mission blll-there may be others, but we
have not yet seen them-and this fact amply
demonstrates that the VINDICATOR has 'the
courage of its convictions, and is willing to
espouse the Kent bill even though it stands
alone in so doing. The VINDICAToR's article
is very readable one, but to the close OBJ
server it does not not supply much enlighten-
ment. For instance, it states that railroad
commissions "are now, and have been for
years in existence in Georgia, Kansas. Michi-
gan. Minnesota, Mississippi, Iowa, Massa-
chusetts, etc, but neglects to give any sta
States named under thefostering care of these
commissions-an omission which was proba-
bly, unlntentlonal.
While it is true, we believe, that the
VINDICATOR was the first paper, it is but
Just to say that there are several other
papers III Virginia row vigorously taking
the part of the people-among them the
Peninsula Enterprise, the Leesburg, Wash
qagtontaa, the Clarke Courier and proba-
bly, others we have not seen. Others will
follow in due time we hope. When we
mentioned the States which have Commits
sions we might have omitted Massachu-
sets and Michigan as rot to the purpose
of our argument. Massachusetts has a
Commission, but it only ''supervises' the
roads. and Michigan has one, but it only
superyises the physical condition. Of the
roads.
The point, and about the only point
that the Kent bill opponents in Virginia
are now making, is that a Railroad Com
mission ,rath 1o0srer to control rates will
stop railroad building in the State aid
drive off capital. We will now show from
the official figures that this position is
groundless, and to do that we take
the railroad building in all States
thGt haze Commissions c5th pomer to
control rates. In those States egive the
increased number of miles Of railway built
in 1890 over the number built in 1885, The
figures are official and are from an advance
copy of The Third Annual Report of the
Statistics of Railways III the United
States to the Interstate Commerce Com
mission for the Y ear ending June 80, 1880. y
Here is the increase.

The Capt. Al it Requires TO Start Private

A meeting OF the committee of the bank

An inspection OF the books of the firm showed

and five hundred OF which was used to pay
Messrs. Jetfries and Keith leaving them tif-
teen hundred dollars to do a banking business
with, if they had five thousand at the outset
The books show that the So, 10 was placed to
the credit OF JeffrieS and Keith, and not paid
to them until the bank here was in operation
In March last the bank was seventeen thou
sand dollars short. Then, or soon after, it
was that the other partners sold out to &. w.
Rosenberger, and A. II. Rosenberger, Movers
and Spindle drew our four thousand dollars

time there was only four OF Fl g thousand dol
lars cash in the bank, but they had four thou
sand dollars each placed to their credit on
the books, and drew it out q it was deposit

drew the same amount from the bank.
Between the first of December and the day
the bank closed, q. w. Rosenberger drew cut
as much as fifteen hundred dollars more,
making about twenty-five thousand dollars
of his account over drawn. He has given his
notes for tWenty-one thousand dollars OF
Whereabouts, which with q little personally
and a few other worthless notes form all the
assets of the bank. Mr.. Rosenberger has
nothing and as his earning capacity is small,
his notes are probably not worth as much as
the ink which stains the paper. There was
only ten dollars and ninety cents in the bank
when it closed. 1t was not developed to what
use MI. g. W. Rosenberger put the money
which he got out of the ba ak. If he bought
property with it it has not been assigned to the

its amounting 10 $685., S2)) of which was the
long life savings of our disabled townsman,
Mr.. Robt. Fletcher.
1t was deter mined at the meeting to employ
counsel and prefer criminal charges. Unless
something is squeezed ont of our Napoleons
of finance in this way, it is not thought that
the creditors will realize five cents on the
dollar. There is some talk of sending away
to get counsel, but this would certainly be
unNise and additionally expensive, and will
probably be Abandoned

The Kent Railroad Bill.

Editor St0unt0n Vlndic0t0r:

organization known as the Farmers Alliance,
and know that voice the sentiment of every
farmer and member of that organization
when l express my feelings of pride and graf
itude on reading in your last issue your edi-
torial to the Banner Bearers
thank you for the able, fearless and truth
ful presentation of our side of the question
1t is mystery to NE (and the question i.
frequently asked why it is that nearly all
the papers are taking sides with the great
corporations and against the people, and not
trying to enlighten us, but the reverse? AS
You say, we do know more than our ancestors,
and thanks to our organization we are learn
ing very rapidly what are our rights, and dare
to maintain them. 1t is an untruth to assert
that we want to injure the railroads. we only
want justice.
This very question Of railroads was most
prominent in our last election, and the defeat
Of the Kent bill woIld be Il little more than
our party could bear and would be polit-
ical death to the members OF the legislature

The conduct Of our government towards
a little South American Republic not large
enough TO fight massachusetts, has so far
not ieen something that an American can
be proud OF. And its apparent determine
tion now, in settling the dispute, to hulnil-
late weak sister republic just coming out
of bloody struggle Of it's own people for
constitutional liberty, is something every
American should feel heartily ashamed Of.
Every environment of Chilli for the past
year should win for her the forhearalee and
patience of this great republic, just as long
as it is possible to exercise both honorably.
Without its exercise, the spectacle Of a
great nation Of sixty millions attacking a
little State of two millions, would bring
on the United States the just contempt of
the world

These two gronpes of States show con
cusiyely that the presence Of the power to
make rates does not necessarily stop rail
road building, and that the absence of ii
does not necessarily promote it. The rem
edy prescribed by our esteemed contemporary
of the Shendun Netus is this:
Railroad competition is the surest remedy
for the railroad eXtortion OF which the YIN
DICTATOR comprehensive only remedy. in fact

Norfolk 4 Western this week leases, or per-

Durham road, III miles long, and the Ches-

feel the panic that the ''banner bearers
feel over Railroad Commission with DOW

ration for many years in thirteen States of
the Union with railroad building still going
on in those States.
The people of this State are as much in
