The Railroad Question.

EDITOR ADVoCATE:-The evils of
private ownership Of the great lines of
transportation are so many and so va
ried that q writer scarcely knows
which one to attack first. The fact is,
the whole system Is wrong; and, as
Bent Murdock said of the Republican
party in 1889, "it must fall to pieces
of it's own rottenness." For instance:
Several of the best main lines Of this
country do not pay expenses, because
a majority of the stock and bondholders
of the main line are the owners Of the
subsidiary lines. But instead of oper-
sting the main line, the majority
lease 1t to the subsidiary lines at an
exceedingly low rentsl-so low, In fact,
that the earnings thus made will not
pay the cost of maintenance and re.
pair, while the subsidiary lines wax
rich and pay large dividends, and
the main line finally goes into the
hands of receiver and the minority
or poorer stockholders are frozen out
and in many instances robbed OF their
holdings.
Another way of robbing the people
is through the medium of private cars,
such as improved tank and stock cars
for carrying oil, turpentlne, live stock,
etc. A single railroad company by its
official report of 1889 paid car mileage
to sixty.five different companies and
firms owning cars. Fifty-four Of these
were private firms and the balance
fast freights.
Judge Schoonmsker of the Inter
state Commerce Commission, in paper
read before the National meeting of
Commissioners in 1890, says: "By an
investigation made in 1889 it appeared
that on a single line of road between
Chicago and an interior Eastern point
"a distance of 40 miles refrigerator
cars owned by three shipping firms
made In nine months, from August 1,
1888, to May 1, 1889, 7,428, ,406 miles,
and earned for mileage S72,945.97,
being about $S,ll2 per month, or sub
stantially at the rate of $lOO, 900 year,

How Rate-cutting Works.

EDITOR ADVOCATE:-The trunk line
railroads, some time ago, lowered the
freight rates on grain from the Missis-
sippi river to the Atlantic sesbosrd,
corresponding to the low rates offered
by the Gulf lines. Following this the
Chicago & Great Western this road
has no lines in Kansas or Nebrasks)
threw q frebrsnd into the Western
railroad pool by announcing great re-
juction in freight rates from Missouri
river cities to Chicago. This immedi-
stely preclpitsted rate war, and
other roads without branch lines in
Kansas at once announced that they
would 60 the Chicago & Great Western
one better, so that the open rate is now
6 cents per 100 pounds on corn and 8
cents per 100 pounds on wheat from
Kansas City to st. Louis.
And now comes the Missouri Pa
cifc railroad and announces the same
rates On corn and wheat from Salina
and other central Kansas points to
either st. Louis or Kansas City. The
rate on corn from Salins to Kansas
City is 13 cents and on wheat Is cents,
but the railroad company in its gener-
osity agrees to haul it nearly 300 miles
farther to st. Louis for the same
money. This makes it plain to every
body that the outrsgeously high local
rates are used as q knife to cut the
through rates. While the Missouri
Pacific is thus cutting the rate, the
other roads will offer the same rates.
How is this doneP Take the Union
Pacific as an illustration, for instance.
This road will pro-rste with the Chi.
cago & Alton road and make the same
through rate. The open rate on corn
from Kansas City to st. Louis now
being 6 cents, this will leave the Union
Pacific cents per 100 pounds to haul
this corn from Sslins to Kansas City,
providing it is billed through. But
should this corn be for an unfortunate
individual in Kansas City, then he

Of silver TO It's OLD p0slClOn previous 10
1873, advise you to consult Jay
Cooke, who was so largely intrusted
with our government loans after the
war. He don't seem to be alarmed
at the prospect of the reconciliation
of silver. And the President Of the
Missouri Bankers Association deems
it a contamination deVoutly to be
wished even by his fraternity. Hear
him:
"We are now upon the single stand
ard of gold. The vital question is,
shall we so remainP 1t is not profit
able to handy epithets, to talk Of gold
bugs and silver lunatics, sound money,
cheap money, 5O-cent dollars and the
like. We all know, and ought to ad-
NIT it frankly, that both gold and silver

"It may be asked why not continue

It's benefits, the restoration of conf

return of prosperity, has been broken
and remained unful6lled. 1t has
proved q costly, disastrous failure, and

whyP Simply because by the law of

pounds, seventeen shillings and nine
pence, and the mints of the United
States, Germany, France and other ma.

Thus by laws the value of the gold
metal is practically fixed at its coinage
value. These laws alone maintain the
equality. Why shall we not restore
our constitutional money, the gold and
silver coinage on equal terms with
equal rightsp
at is impossible for me to consume
time sufficient to refute the objections
to the restoration of the coinage Of the
standard silver dollar to its equality
with gold as 1t existed at the passage
Of the law of 1873. So far as l have
seen every such objection is based upon

Solid For Bryan.

The comfort the opponents Of Demo-
cracy arc trying 20 extract out Of the
elections in Georgia and Florida Is OF
the coolest kind.
In Florida the contest was between
the Democrats and the Populists, and
granting that the loss in the Democratic
vote represents the gold detection. the
result shows conclusiyely that the
Democrats have nothing 70 fear. In the
November election the Democrats and
their opponents In this election will be
together, and II the Republicans can find
enough votes in the Democratic loss TO
defeat the combined votes Of the Demo
Gratis and Populists, or even TO defeat
the Democrats, they are welcome TO
them.
But Il Is certain that part OF the loss
OF the Democrats was due 70 a feeling
that Il was useless TO go 70 the polls. In
the contest between Democrats and
populists the Democrats were sure oil
success.
The Georgia returns hold out gloomier
prospects for the Republicans. Against
the combined opposition OF Republicans
and populists, the Democrats have won
notable victory. The Democratic ma
jority over. that OF two years ago h as
been increased by about 10000. There
ia abundance OF margin between this
majority and the normal Democratic
majority to account for all Democratic
defections. VIII en- the Populist vote

their right 10 vote accorded them, all
avenues Of employment, OF procuring
positions of emolument, honor and
power within her intellectual capacity
and physical ability to successfully con-
duct, will be open TO her, and | think
in Justice, all persons without regard 10
sex should agree upon governing plan
which simply gives women the same
right TO exist without degradation, as
under our laws, men now have"
Thos. II. jolly, publisher Of the
Moscow Mirror, says:
"There is no reason why the women
should not have the same right to vote
In all elections held In the state. We
believe the majority of women are as
competent to vote as men.
eve believe every voter should at
tain q certain degree OF knowledge be-
fore he should be allowed to vote and
that every citizen OF the United States,
over the age oftwenty-one years should
have the right TO cast their ballot for
the principles in which they believe.
This is fair and honest. Why not have
little honesty in politics and give all
a chance TO VOTE"
