FRANK FORT H9RRIFIED
The Anti Monopoly Pipe Line
Bill Seems to Him Wicked
and Dangerous.

t''ffr@ |Nft0 ONf'St wv = w .
TRENTON. March IL. 1S9S.-The Senate
Committee on Railroads and Canals gave
a hearing yesterday afternoon in the Sem
ate Chamber on the substitute for the
bill which was introduced to enable the
United States Pipe Line Company to get
through this State to the sea board. Ex-
Judge ]. Frank Fort spoke in opposition
to the bill. He said the law was sup
posed to- be a general one for the pur-
pose of establishing a system for the
regulation of such companies in this
State. There is no law al the present
time on that subject on the statute
books. 1t was time the State passed
some law of that kind for the protection
Of the State. the public and pipe line
companies. New York, Pennsylvania
and Indiana had general laws upon this
subject. The bill before the Senate,
however. would need great modification
before it could be placed upon the statute
books. Its provisions were too sweeping.
It deprived the State of it's riparian
lands. and took them from the Riparian
Commissioners without compensation.
Under the 1rss section, he said, companies
would have the right to lay pipes in the
streets, alleys and highways of the
cities and towns. 1t also provided, he
claimed, that the consent which the
companies received from municipal
authorities to use streets and highways
would have the force of an irrepealable
contract. The people of New Jersey had
been trying for some time to get rid Of
these irrepealable contracts and the State
had spent large sums for that purpose.
Governor Albeit. who did so much to get
rid of the irrepealable contracts of many
railroads would. if he were alive today,
be the first to oppose this bill.
Judge Fort also claimed tina the bill
gave the companies perpetual succession,
and said that no Legislature which a
the interest of the people at heart would
give any corporation such a privilege.
The General Corporation Act limited the
life of a corporation to fifty years.
Ex~-Congressman Henry Harris of Bel
videre, who appeared for the United States
Pipe Line Company, called Mr.. Forts at
tention to the fact that the bill did
limit the life of the companies formed
under it.
Judge Fort. continuing. said that the
bill was too general altogether; had no
checks. no limits. and no guard for the
States interest. The bill make the
companies common carriers, but makes no
provision to compel them to transport any
oil gwen to them. He said he had heard
that the Standard Oil Company was OPP
posing this measure. They should be the
Iirst ones to jump tor 10y. Tney should
not know but what that compan was
really at the bottom of the measure. He
wanted it distinctly understood that he
appeared for the D.. l.. Il w. X. X. alone,
and in no wise represented the Sta ndard

It is the opinion of many conserva-
tive men who have studied the situa-
tion that the silverites, if united upon
n candidate, win control sufficient
states to get a majority in the Elec-
toral College. according to the New
York journal, a paper which looks at
the matter conservatively. These es-
Inmates are based upon a concession to
Mckinley Of all the Eastern states, and
also Wisconsin, Ohio, Illinois, Mime
sofa and Indiana. There cannot be
much doubt bat that those controlling
the commercial interests of the East
anticipate the same result, for upon nO
other basis can we account for the ire
mendous drop Of three hundred mil
lions o. dollars in the value Of securi-
ties on the Stock Exchange in twelve
days. The action of the Chicago con-
vention has been fully discounted by
this time, and nothing but a deep-seat-
ed conviction of the favorable chances
of the silver issue, in the event of a
coalition of the silver forces, would &C
count for this tremendous drop.
The MADISONIAN does not presume
to give pointers to the great politicians
Of national importance. In such trying
times as these we realize Our insigniti-
canoe. But we want silver to win
Men and parties are insignificant with
ns Of the west when compared to the
great issue. But if the matter could be
50 arranged we would like to see a
combination Of the silver forces in the
electoral college. Precedent is against
such a proposition, but we are inclined
to think that precedent will not cut
much of a figure in this campaign.
The silver Republicans, Democrats
and Populists in combination in the
electoral college, ever if each had {;
seperate candidate, would he d coalition
that could win.
The scheme has its drawbacks. Blu
il would be better to make some sacri
fees than to allow the gold men t
walk away with the prize while the sil
yer men die at each others threats.

have seen the San Francisco troop
mounted on two or three occasions since

1t is difficult in the National Guard
to bring cavalry UP to a high standard
of efficiency, and it is very expensive.
I think it would be of much more BEN
eft to the State to maintain less cav
airy and more infantry To that end I
would recommend the mastering out
of two of the troops now in existence,
and the organization of four a. compa-
nies of infantry in their stead; there
would be no increase of expense, and
then it would be practicable to organize
another eight-company infantry regi-
ment. preferably the Seventh as the
First Brigade has but one regiment and
should have at least two.
If this is not done, l would recon-
mend that the Los Angeles troop be dis
banded and a light battery of four
guns be organized and equipped with
modern steel guns, to be located at San
Francisco or Los Angeles. AT present
there is no artillery, and no serviceable
guns except Gatlings, and there should
undoubtedly be one well-equipped bat

GUARDSMEN OF THE STATE.
An Army Officers Opinion Of Our Citizen
SOldiefy.
Some of Them, He Says, Have Not
the Proper Conception of
Their Duty.

Some months ago Captain T. de l..
Darlington of the First Infantry of the
Regular Army, who had been detailed
for the purpose, inspected the National
Guard organization of the State, and
one month since filed his report with
the Adjutant- General. 1t was sent to
the State Printer, and the printed copies
were yesterday received by General
Barrett for distribution.
There has been general desire among
members of the National Guard to know
just what Captain Darlington had to
say as the result of his inspection, as
he is known to be an officer who does
not mince matters when he has views
to express. Therefore the Record
Union" this morning presents the re-
port entire, which speaks for itself.
WHAT THE CAPTAIN SAYS.
To the Assistant Adjutant- General,
Division, n. G. C.-Sir: I have the
honor to submit herewith report of the
recent inspection of the National Guard
made by me in pursuance of instructions
from the Adjutant- t-GeneraI of the State
directing me to report to the Division
Commander for this duty.
This inspection was made in conjunc-
spectors, each of whom has submitted
reports covering all the numerical de-
tails of the muster. I will therefore omit
that information, and proceed at once
to a plain statement of the condition OF
the Guard, as it appeared to me-accom-
panied by such suggestions and recon-
fnendations as 1 consider proper in the
premises.
Following the wishes of the Governor
and Division Commander, the intention
was to make the inspection thorough in
every particular-the object being tc
discover, as far as possible, the true
state of the Guard as to efficiency and
equipment, and thus put the authorities
In a position to apply any needful RENE
dies.
The division and Brigade Inspectors
Colonel Currier and Majors Jansen
Diss and Rice, entered into the work Sc
heartily, and performed their duties SC
cheerfully and efficiently, that the rea
work of my position was greatly re-
duced, and thus gave me better oppor-
tunity to study the Guard thoroughly
AS the immediate representative of the
Secretary of War, and IN compliance
with his expressed wish, have sought
to use every endeavor to encourage the
feeling in the National Guard that the
General Government desires their well
fare and improvement, and that a cor
dial relation should exist between the
regular army and State troops. My OBJ
servation during this tour Of inspection
satisfies me that the Guard is beginning
to realize and appreciate this attitude
