DAVID B. JAMES.
James says he loves his country, be-
lieves in peaceful secession of the west
and the establishment of a republic
with its own cabinet and president.
He is California pioneer. He says:
I'VE have no chance here without we
establish separate republic and tax
the east. 1t can be done without the
firing of a gun and it will mean pros
perity to the masses We can produce
everything we need right here and
states west of the Rocky mountains
ought TO be conferred into one empire.
We do not want the east to interfere
with US or legiSlate for us because our
interests are widely different. They do
not understand our Chinese or Japan
csc problems, nor do they understand
many other questions peculiar to US.
We take out sl5,C00,0o0 of bullion an
nually, we produce everything need
ed in the entire range of human con-
sumption ana If we can only escape
from eastern importations which are
favored by railroads, We will have pros
porous times and work for all our idle
people as well as for those unborn
Our only connection with the east
need only be in case OF war. We would
have offensive and defensive treatise
and there would never be any trouble
between the two sections. 1t would
still be America and freedom

The statement of the earnings Of the
Burlington road for January shows a
large falling of in all departments
save one, despite a decrease in the
operating expenses, of SlSo, 1871 The
only department which showed an in
crease was that Of mail and miscel-
laneOus earnings, where there was an
increase of S31, $50. The gross earnings
for January were s2254,526, a decrease
of $685., asa; operating expenses were
81. 544 769, a decrease Of sl95.767; net
earnings were 500, 737, a decrease of

the same month of last year.
\ rumor was current today that
John Egan, last summer president of
the General Managers association. had
been appointed general manager of "a
western line"
The general opinion was that the
road was the Colorado Midland. AT

nothing was known OF the appoint
men. President Robinson is in Cali
fornia and Receiver Walker is in New
York and nobody at the traffic Office
OF the road here had any information
on the subject

Agent Townsend of the Missouri Paci-
fic that either Mr.. Townsend or some
other representative of the Missouri
will be here in the morning TO meet
with the members Of III committee re-
garding the membership of the Mis-
souri, Pacific. Chairman Caldwell at
once issued a call for g. general meet

he did so that the conference with the

Chicago, March 1.-The conference
between the Western lines and those

all Of today but nothing whatever was
accomplished and the meeting will be
resumed tomorrow. The first question
to come up was that of commissions
on the emigrant traffic. 1t was passed
after a short discussion and the matter
Of the orders of the western lines in the
territory of the trunk lines came up.
This was also passed after a short dis
cussion and then the trunk lines asked
that the western lines withdraw their
emigrant clearing house from New
York and allow them to handle all the
business. The western roads annOunc-
ed that they were not disposed to take
the action demanded by the trunk lines
but the advisory committee agreed to
take the matter under consideration
and will report later.
The Canadian Pacific differentials
were under discussion when the meet
ing adjourned. No approach to def
mite action was taken on any of the
matters which came up. It is hardly
expected that the meeting Will accom-
plish anything definite tomorrow.
