There Was an Increase in Business on the
Exchange.
New York, Oct 24.-There was an in
crease in the volume of business at the
stock exchange, but the activity was at
the expense of values. The room trad

terially increased. The main disturbing
element was the strength of the sterling
exchange, posted rates having been adj
vanced another IL cent to $4S812G

vived the discussion about gold exports

AN IMPORTANT QUESTION.
GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP AND
OPERATION OF RAILROADS.
A Lecture Delivered in Duluth, Min
nesota, Before the Peoples
Party Central Club, March
18th, 1895.
BY JOHN RUSTGARD, ATTY AT LA
Continued from last ereek..

BY JOHN RUsTGARD. Atty AT LAW
Continued from last areek..
It is again argued that the govern
ment cannot run the roads as cheaply
as private corporation. To this let
me say that there is every reason to
believe that it can run them cheaper.
Let me illustrate how: There are
now between Duluth and ST. Paul,
say three lines operated daily. Each
of them runs two or three trains a
day-call it three. Each road has a
separte depot, the Union Depot.
Omaha Depot and Great Northern.
Each Of the roads have a separate set
Of officials in charge Of the lines; each
separate ticket office in the most
expensive locality in the city; each
has it's separate ads in the newspa-
pers, etc. II the government owned all
three lines, but one depot would be
needed, only one ticket office would be
required, the one at the depot; the
same set of officials could do the work
for the three roads and nothing would
have to be expended for advertising.
In short, the expense ON those items
would be reduced to about third
of what it is now. Then instead of
starting three trains from here to ST.
Paul at one and the same time, as
now, you would start one in the morn
ing say, on one road, one at noon on
the other, and one in the evening on
the third. This would give people a
chance to 60 and come at any time of
the day or night to suit themselves.
All the travel on the three trains
could be concentrated on one without
appreciatly increasing the expense of
running the latter. / am not here to
make out any pay roll, or formulate
any time table for future govern
ment employees. I only call your at
tention thus in crude manner to
methods in which savings in expense
may very easily be affected and at the
same time better service rendered to
the public. Competition is the life of
trade we are told and SO it is, but
competition is also always a great
waste. The high price paid for var-
Gus goods and for transportation on
railroads today, go in large measure
to pay for the waste caused by the
sharp competition between rival
manufacturers and merchants. The
sewing machine sold for $50, costs
about $4.OO as it leaves the manufac-
tory where it was made. On account
of the sharp competition between the
several companies each has to waste
thousands of dollars in advertising.
He must send out solicitors to extoll
the merits Of his particular machine
and pay to the canvasser. forty per
cent Of the price for every machine
sold. Each machine must be sold on
installments and it costs ten per cent
more to collect these. All these ex-
penses must be added to the price Of
the machine. This is the case in
nearly every line Of business and rail-
roads are no exception. Though COM
peting lines agree on fixed rates for
transportation they all must adver-

Adulteration is only another form of
competition.-John Bright.
Writing about one of the firms en-
gagged in supplying timed American
meat to the English working and middle
classes, correspondent informs the
Times that for the sake of a few dol

'This firm will condemn thousands of
human beings to chances of sickening
and even dying from loathsome disease
contracted through eating some diseased
meat, and then these fiends will send
up a wall when some foreign power takes
hand in the matter and bars the re-
fuse from entering their ports''
He also describes the manufacture of
extracts of beef" C"extract of filth" he
calls it,, declares that it is prepared in
typhoid atmosphere" and asserts that
rats in state of decomposition were
pulled out of the cans in his presence
But what's new in all that? Had any,
body suspected competition of possess

ically swindle each other, rob each other,
poison each other, murder each other,

our liberties, and our greatness as a ma

The Times is mistaken in fancying
that it has found out something. The

neither new nor rare. That's businessi
AS for the rats in the beef extracts, /
find from an Ipswich liberal paper that
rat flesh is strongly recommended to the
poor as a special delicacy. Mr.. J. A.
Smith brought the subject before the
East Suffolk county council in the course
of discussion on the wild birds pro-

pie wanted was rat pie, which was "a
dish fit to set before king" He point
ed out to the farmers that
"It is hardly worth their while to
grow corn, and then carefully to stack
it-all for the rats to eat during the win
ter months"
Far wiser to leave the corn alone and
stack the rats. Then, by and by, when
the 'lower orders" had surmounted their
silly prejudices, they could eat rats in
stead of bread, and be happy ever after.
So you observe that the discomfort of
the lower orders is very stupid. Though

NEWSPAPER LEGISLATION.

Two years ago a bill was before the
LEGISLATURE providing for the pub
LEGATION Of the Supreme Court decis.
ions. The Enterprise said it was a
bill for the benefit Of the APPEAL and
denounced it as a steal etc.
Last Wednesday there was a SINH
lar bill before the House which
was intended to give the Virginia
Enterprise very nice little printing
plum. Yet the APPEAL did not oppose
it as we have never yet adopted the
policy of opposing any bill that helps
any printer earn more wages than he
is now doing.
The Gazette does the work of run
ming the Supreme Court decisions for
nothing, merely for the purpose of
preventing any other paper from get
ting fair price for doing the same
work. We could cite numerous other
examples of the miserable cut-rhroat
policy adopted by pimpled headed
publishers in this State, which has
resulted in the newspapers Of Nevada
all being reduced to the pitiful ex-
tremity which is next down to the poor
house. One never sees physicians or
lawyers cutting each others threats
in this miserable fashion
The lawyers and doctors have sense
enough to keep up the scale of fees,
because the ethics of their profession
forbid the dog in the manger policy
of tramp!ing down their own bust
ness.
Ii there were not so many scrubs in
the publishing business in this State,
the publishing of newspaper in Ne
vada, would give some returns for
the work of the brain and hand.
Although the bill killed on Wednes-
day placed the disposal of the publ
cation of the Supreme Court in the
hands of the Chief Justice. it was
nevertheless good bill, and we hope
it will he introduced again and passed.
The present publication is being done
by the Gazette for nothing, and we
are opposed in principle to such a
proposition. Being done gratis, like
all such work, it is being wretchedly
performed, and absolutely useless to
lawyers who desire accuracy in the
printing of Supreme Court decisions.
Better let the Enterprise do it at a
fair rate, than have it done for moth
ing, and done poorly, is now CONTROL
ing.

SAINT CLEVELAND.

Yesterday the APPEAL printed a long
communication from Milton Elstner
in which the gentleman protested
against the APPEALS views Of Grover
Cleveland's bond job aud then pro-
ceeded to paint halo Of lambert
glory about the head of the Patron
Saint Of the unreconstructed Democ-
racy. We published the communica-
fion in accordance with a time hon
Ored policy OF the paper; never to re-
fuse space to the advocates Of any side
Of any question, and also 10 illustrate
the amount OF mental obliquity which
still adheres to old time Democrats in
dealings with public questions.
Mr. Elstner is an old time Democrat
to whose political opinions the old
party mass still clings. Across his
brain are woven the cobwebs Of the
anti-bellum days and in his eyes the
Democratic President is like the King
in the Middle ages, who in the eyes OF
his faithful subjects. could do no
wrong. In the eyes Of such a man
Cleveland concentrates the wisdom Of
all the statesmen since jackson s
time and that Of Jackson thrown in.
II he were to take a ton Of dynamite,
blow up the q. 8. Treasury vaults and
distribute the money among the Hot
tentots Of South Africa, Mr.. Elstner
would throw up his hat and say
Look at the sound money policy Of
our Chief Executive!" But Cleveland
has done even worse than that He
cooked up a bond job that placed mill
lions, not in the pockets Of the Rotten-
tots who could do US no harm, but in
the Golfers OF men whC can with the
gains thus made, further rivet the
chains of financial slavery upon the
already ematiated limbs Of the Amer
lean Republic The statement by Mr..
EIstner that Americans would not
take the loan is not true, but his be-
lief that it is true shows that he con-
sidered that the American banks had
no confidence in the future Of q
country that had to run two years
longer under a Cleveland Admins
tration. As matter Of fact the bank
ers as whole were not allowed to
have a chance to subscribe to the loan,
but secret compact was made with
Wall Street. The whole thing is a
reasonable alliance with European
bankers, with Wall Street as a com.
mission merchant. Thus does Ceve-
land pay up his old campaign debts
at the expense Of the people Of the
United States. High treason is the
only name that can fit the crime COM

THE COST OF CR.-NKlSM

The State is being now taught an
expensive lesson in crankism. Early
in the session few chronic cranks
in the Assembly spent the time of the
State in obstructing legislation.
They made dilitory motions, de-.
manded roll calls ON every occasion
and blew off 10000 feet Of gas day in
tiresome speeches on economy while
they delayed every bill through the
expressed fear that there might be
some job in it. AS a result the ses-
sion has to be prolonged ten days,
at the expense Of several thousand
dollars to make up for the time
wasted by the cranks who squandered
the peoples money in order to pose as
treasury watch dogs and earn cheap
reputation for economy.
