The Senator then resumed his remarks
upon Mr.. PETERS railroad scheme. lie
sad that TO buy up all the railroads IN
this country would take seven times all
the money In the United States, and that
after the purchase had been made it

party such a patronage that very soon
instead of the people owning the railroads
the railroads would be owning the people.
