attachment which those who survive her

The Ownership Of Railroads.

The indictments against certain
Santa Fe directors brought IN by the
federal grand jury Friday add extra
counts to the general indictment
against certain phases of private
ownership of railroads in this coun-
try.
In reports just made TO the German
government. and in circular now
being sent around III that country.
the bad practices prevalent in the
| management Of American railroads
under private ownership are con-
demel and the effect is to exchange
an existing lack of confidence
abroad in American railroad securi-
ties. Since the government took con-
troll of the railroads in the old. con-
servative monarchy of Austria the
benefits to the people have been
general. Rates Of fare have been re-
duced one-half. the business of the
roads has nearly, if not quite, doubl-
ed. life and limb have been safer b,
reason of the great improvement in
.hc system Of operation. The gov
ernment has also been directly bene-
fitted in the way of revenue. Under
the system that prevails in Austria
there are no construction companies
to be paid exorbitant values as in
America; there are no rebates, and
consequently no discrimination be-
tween shippers; there Is no watering
Of stock whereby the officials Of the
road swindle the public while they
enrich themselves. There are no
subsidies. no second and third mort
cages; there are no receivers and no

What is ment by free coinage. a
contemporary asks. The demand OF
free silver coinage men is that silver
be restored to the same right that it
had as money metal from the foun-
dat,on of the government down to
1873, when it was deprived of that
right by fraud and stealth, and that
1t again be coined at the mints on the

Outlook for 'o6.
Times.

The election Of Tuesday demons
trated one thing in paticular-the Re
publican and not the democratic party
Is the organization against which the
Populists will be arrayed in 1896. OF
course the Republicans now claim
that the presidency is with easy reach
and they present figures which on
their face would seem to justify the
claims put forth. But when an ana
lyasis of the vote Is made, it is readi-
cen that their defeat in 1896 can
be accomplished, and under favorable
circumstances with >grcater ease than
now supposed.
There are AS votes,in..the elector al
college; necessary for a choice, 223
The following states were. carried by
the Republicans Tuesday:
Connecticut, 6; Illinois, "a; Indiana,
Is; Iowa, 13; Maine, 6; Massachusetts,
15; Michigan, II, Minnesota, 8; New
Hampshire, 4; New Jersey, 10; New
York, 36; Ohio. 23 Pennsylvania. 32;
Rhode Island. i; Vermont. 4; and
Wisconsin. II. Total. 227.
If the same states should go Repub-
lican IN 1896 1t would give its cand,-
Date for president 227 votes. four to
spare If-Wisconsin and Minnesota
should he carried by another party,
the Republicans would receive 2OG
votes. thus lacking II votes of the
number required If either one OF
these states should be carried against
them they should still lack s Or )
votes. the result depending on which
was carried.
1t will be observed from the above
calcula.ions-nOw that tie Democratic
party is dead-that for the new party
to defeat the Republicans IN 1896 is
not among the range Of improbable
ties. \ landslide swept the country
two years ago as we'll as on Tuesday
and why not in 1896? Will 4 change
not be desired then as much as it was
on election observation-disclosures.
