So strange a spectacle has never

proof brought by worldwide ruin

when we are convinced, and when at
least nile-tenths of the civilized world
agrees that England holds us to the
single gold standard by the force of
capital alone more despotically than
she could hold us to her empire in
1875. The mere threat of her dis
pleasure paralyzes mankind.
We want real money-coin-carry

and quickly, for delay itself is likely
to be decision. The republican party
must either fix the single standard of
the nation or reject it. This time we
can no longer escape the issue, and
whatever we do must be done openly.
When a great policy is to be entered
upon the straightforward path is the
best.
The republican party held power
for whole generation and has in all

We cannot afford 10 repeat that err

THERE Is no cause for regret in the
fact that the big New York Central
engine 900 and the English locomo-
tive Queen Empress did not race from
Buffalo to New York. The race
would have been unsatisfactory. Aside
from the fact that the English ma
chine was new and untried, the road
was unfamiliar to the British engi.
neer, and it would have scarcely been
possible to secure conditions to make
the race a fair one. If the American
engine had won the cry from the
Britons would have been that their
locomotive was not in racing trim,
and the result would be unsatisfac-
tory all around. The bad grace with
which our English friends took the
defeat of the Valkyrie is a sufficient
warning against entering into any
contests with them unless the ad-
vantage-if there is any-shall be on
their side. John Bull is becoming a
hard loser, and the only way to shut
him up is to give him odds and then
beat him into the bargain.

The case of @. E. Lathrop VS.. the
Burlington & Missouri River railroad
was decided by the board of railroad
commissioners in favor of the plaintiff.
This was case in which it was charged
that the railroad charged $3 each for
setting cars upon the transfer track at
Atchison. 1t was established in the
evidence that there. is an established
rule among railroads that charges are
payable to the road receiving the freight
and in no case is switching charge al
lowed to the road delivering the freight to
another line. 1t was also proven that the
Rock Island and Missouri Pacific trans
fer all cars that come over their lines to
Atchison free of charge, and that the
Burlington transfers cars free to several
of the large wholesale houses OF Atchi-
son. Furthermore, this Is the only in
stance ever known of this railroad charg-
ing shipper for the freight transferred
to another road. The board decided
that the charges complained of were un-
Just and an illegal discrimination against
Mr.. Lathrop and they were ordered dis
continued Immediately.
The Burlington & Missouri road has
joined the Santa Fe in its protest against
this years railroad assessment. The
Burlington & Missouri has interests in
eleven counties in northern and north
western Kansas, the counties being
touched by branches. Attorneys for the
road say that the assessment amounts
to from % to A per cent. of the gross
earnings of the branches within these
counties for the current year. In sever
al Of the counties the road has ten
dered what it considers fair tax, and
the same has been accepted.
