MORAL ASPECT OF FUNDING.
Government Was Not a Partner Of the
Railroad Builders.
It Made Ten Dollars Out of the Con-
struction of the Roads to Every
One by the Companies.
(From the San Francisco Post)


The statement of General Thomas H.
Hubbard before the House Committee
on Pacific Railroads on the 9th inst
is the most complete presentation of the
moral aspect of extending the time for
the payment of the debts due by the Pa
cific railroads to the Government that
has yet been made.
General Hubbard declared that the
fundamental error in the minds of the
public was that the men who built the
road We're considered as trustees, not as
parties Of the second part to a contract
1t was not a question, he declared, what
profit each party to the contract made.
And in very truth this is the real con-
sideration underlying the whole case.
To simplify this, let it be understood
that the Government and the Pacific
railroads were parties to an agreement
The Government wanted railroad
from the Missouri River to the Pacific
Ocean. 1t could have constructed it it
self It could have taken stock and
shared the risk. 1t could have relegated
the completion of the work to private
enterprise and awaited the result. 1t
could subsidize the undertaking, and
this is Just what it did. The considera-
ton to accrue to the Government was
the benefit arising out of a more inti-
mate commercial relation between the
Atlantic States and the Pacific Ocean.
This whole question has been so be-
fogged by unreasoning prejudice, the is
sue so confused by malevolence, that
even fair-minded men lost their way to
right conclusions. There is a large class
of high-minded people who declare that
the moral aspect of this question must
be cleared up before they can favor an
extension of the time for the payment
of these debts. 1t is to this class these
considerations are addressed.
The Pacific railroads were constructed
under an agreement to which there were
two parties, to wit-the Government on
one side and the Pacific railroads on the
ether. The consideration to inure to the
Government by the terms and covenants
of the agreement was the construction
of the road and its operation. The con-
sideration to accrue to the Pacific rail-
roads was the subsidy of lands and the
loan of the Governments credit. There
