RAILROADS AND THE PEOPLE,.

In Excellent Address by President NJ. E.
Ingalls,, of the Big Four, Their Rela-
tions, the One to the Other.
On the occasion of the recent open
ng of the new and magnificent
ierminal station of the Missouri Pa
:itic q Iron Mountain, the Wabash,
The Louisville & Nashville, the Balti-
more & Ohio Southwestern and the
Big Four at St. Louis, begun five years
ago, President NJ. E. Ingalls,, of the
Big -Four, delivered an address on the
Necessity for Better Feeling Between
the Railways and the People" After
reviewing briefly the history of the ef-
fort which had had it's fruition in, as
he declared, 1.-The best, the most artis-
tic, the most commodious of any rail-
way station in the world" and con-
graduating the people of St Louis on
is completion, President ingalls,
paid just tribute to DR..
raussig, president of the Terminal
association, to whose efforts
large part of the success Of the new
structure is due He then referred to
the phenomenal growth of the rail-
roads in this country during the past
sixty years, and claimed the unparal-
teled development and prosperity OF
this country during that time was it's
direct result and that its future de-
pended upon the success of its trans
portation facilities. THAT the rail-
ways should prosper" he said, lis to
/ the interest of every man, woman and
I11 Il 1f,.yr fNf
matter what his calling or business.
To attain this success there must be
better feeling between the railways
and the people, between the railways
and their employees"
Referring to the recent strike as
''the greatest. the most causeless and
the most unsuccessful' in the history
Of strikes and questioning what con-
ditions made it possible that "a few
worthless demagogues" could induce
such large number of railway en-
ployes to neglect their interest and
forget the loyalty due the companies,
the speaker asked what was the cause
Of the great dissatisfaction? AS man
ayers IL behooves them to consider the
question carefully and endeavor to
find a solution, for somewhere there
was an answer. The great strike was
not without it's lessons, one Of which
was that mo strike can succeed which
has no real ground of grievance and
which public opinion does not sup
port" Continuing. President ingalls,
said:
But out of it the wise men should seek for
the cause Of the evil and its cure. If the sys-
TEN Of proft-Sharing among employees coulC
be adopted, ! have always believed that il
would be cure for these evils; but before this
can be successfully adopted we must secure
the profits. We ought also to esta blisf
system of pensions for those dlsa-
blef in the service, and for annulties
foi- those who have been worn out serving
their corporations There must also bt
| a better feeling built up between the railways
and the communities they serve. The situation
is much improved now and it is not as fashion
able as it used to be for newspapers and public
bodies to abuse railways and their manage
ment but there are many states and communl
ties to-day where there exists a feeling o
great hostility towards railway corporations
This is unfortunate, and it is the duty OF rail

TO DECEIVE THE PEOPLE.
Cow the Democrats Nre Planning for the
Coming Contest.

Coming Contest.
In a recent interview Congressman
Grosvenor, of Ohio, who has taken the
stump in the congressional campaign,
speaks as follows upon the tactics of
the democratic party:
"There are increasing indications
that the democratic congressional
campaign committee intends to re-
sumo the campaign Of deception OF
last year. The country storekeepers
are to be made the medium through
which misleading information is to be
communicated to the voters. Money
is to be used to compensate the store
keepers for not increasing the prlce OF
sugar, although the trust has already
marked up the price. In addition, the
latest proposition is placard to be
hung in all the crossroads stores IN
the country, and especially in districts
where the margin of votes is a narrow
one. This placard is to contain a list
of the articles upon which prices have
been reduced las it will be claimed) by
the passage Of the tariff bill, and it is
expected that this practical appeal to
/ the pockets of purchasers will add
many votes to the democratic column.
THE republican committee is obtain
ing evidence of the intention of the
democratic campaign committee to de-
ceive the voters in this way. lnforma-
ton has been received which points
positively to efforts being made to
keep down the price of sugar until
after the November elections. These
efforts have not been successful so far,
as the retail price of sugar has adj
vanced very materially since August
2S, when the new law went into effect.
"The democrats, however, intend to
accomplish their purpose if it is within
their power to do SO. 1t is probable
that within the next few days the
scheme by which this misrepresenta-
ton of prices is to spread over the
country will be exposed.
'sThe summary of imports and eX
ports for the month of July, which
has Just been published by the bureau
of statistics of the treasury depart
ment, discloses some interesting facts
in relation to the operations OF the
sugar trust in anticipation of the en-
actment into law of the Gorman-Brice
bill of sale which will be especially
interesting to the consumers of sugar

called upon to pay higher price fol

"This would seem to indicate that

of sale,' the sugar trust had been ran
sacking the world for raw sugar, and
not finding enough cane sugar to sat

tention to the beet sugar supply Of
Europe. When the bill of sale be-
came law by the consent OF Presl-
dent Cleveland, who had actually
given to the sugar trust ten days
grace in addition to all the other
favors bestowed upon it by himself
and his trusted adviser, the secretary
of the treasury, the supply of raw
sugar in the United States owned by
the sugar trust in excess of all legitl-

b,N a protective tariff which differs
from the republican tariff only in de
gree, but not in kind.
1t has been estimated (by democratic
statisticians) that the grand average
of duties under the republican Mchin-
ley tariff was fifty per cent. 1t is estl-
mated (also by democratic statlstl-
cians) that the grand average of du-
ties under the democratic sugar trust
tariff is thirty-eight per cent This
makes difference of twelve per cent.
If. as the democratic platform alleged,
s.nrotection is unconstitutional"
fraud" and robbery" how about
this sugar trust tariff? If fifty per
cent. protection is unconstitutional, IS
| thirty-eight per cent. constltutlonaI'
| Does twelve per cent. make the differ
ence between honesty and dishonesty?
If fifty per cent protection is fraud
and a robbery, is not thirty-eight per
cent. protection robbery and fraud?
It is small wonder that Grover Cleve-
land hesitated to affix his signature to
this humbug bill. 1t is not an honest
bill. 1t is tainted with all manner of
scandals and rumors of bribery. 1t is
not what the rank and file of the dem
ocratic party asked for, nor is it what
the democratic leaders promised to
give them.
The democratic party's platform was
a swindle, its ''investigation" of the
sugar scandal was a sham, and its So
called free-trade tariff is fraud

A DISHONEST BILL.
The Swindling Policy of the Humbugginf
Democracy.


When the democratic national con-
vention, held at Chicago in 1892, dis
cussed the tariff question, the plank
from the Randall platform Of 1894 was
brought forward. This was on the
lines of modified protection. But IL
was howled down by Henry Waiter"
son and other free trade fanatics, and
for it was substituted the Neal-Wat-
terson plank, which denounced the
system of protection" as "unconstitu-
tional'' and as "a fraud-a robbery OF
the majority of the American people
for the protection of the few" 1t was
with this tariff plank in their platform
that the democratic party went before
the people pledged to free trade.
How have they carried out their
promises? They have struck down
wool and protected coal. They have
freed salt and protected raw sugar.
They have freed tin ore and protected
iron ore. They have laid before the

cured the exclusive right to the use of Mr..
Hobson's latest device. The patent is on
a device inside the tin plate upon which
the lamp rests. The hook of the lamp is
held firm, so that, no matter what posi-
tion the wearer of the cap may assume,
the lamp will not swing to either side, or
drop forward. 1t is said to be the most

caps. Mr., Hobson is a genius He is
