RAILWAY RACING IN ENGLANE

RAILWAY RACING IN ENGLAND.
Railway Age Railway racing in
England seems to be IN excuse tor
gambling. One observer afirms that
a large amount Of betting goes 81
among the passengers rs TO the time
of the arrival and the time of the FAST
est mile. and he has proof Of cases in
which passengers have been to the
drivers and promised them money If a
certain time was kept, in order that
they could win bets. kilograms are
sem from one line to the other report
ing how the rival train Is progressing.
The driver of one racer. say at York.
is informed that the other company's
train is in advance Of time at Crewe,
and this leads to fast and dangerous
running. These statements refer to
the East Coast and West Coast routes
between London and Scotland, in
which last year a speed Of IS miles an
hour was reached, which, it is said. it
is intended to beat in 1896. Some Of
the ~non-beating public is protesting
against the foolish and pernicious
practice of train racing" as dangerous,
and the engine drivers, who are re-
from the trains II they lose the
least time on the journey. have induced
the society Of drivers and firemen to
to the board of trade a protest
against excessive speed. Meantime the
fast trains of several American roads
make, all things considered. about as
quick time as the lighter English
trains and keep up the pace without
racing, without accidents, without in
citing betting and without any protest
on the part Of trainmen or travellers.

MR.. BREITENSTEIN EXPLAINS.
He Referred to the Tax and Did Not
Mean Interest.
Editor Republican,:

Editor Republican:
In your issue of Sept. 10th. you ask
me to cite the United States law, oil
which l based my assertion that the
government loaned money to the bank
ers at 2 per cent" / am not usually
given to exaggeration and would Cot
knowingly lend my assistance to any
newspaper used for such a purpose.
The national banking system in brief
is this: That when five or more indi-
yiduals who can command, say, $50, 900,
in cities like Laramie, form a banking
association, they may use that sum to
buy United States bonds bearing in
%terest: and the government agrees, for
the purpose of helping them into the
banking business, that it will safely
keep those bonds. will continue to pay
the interest to those gentlemen. and. in
consideration that they engage in that
particular business. will stamp the ma
tional money signet upon $4,000 Of
bank notes and deliver them to the as
ISOLATION. These notes are expected to
have, and do have all the power of
money. The bank lends them like ma
tional coin, and can by law enforce the
payment of such loans. in coin or 9TH
err legal tender.
The revised United States statutes of
1873. section SPA. is as follows: I'm
lieu of all existing taxes, every asso-
citation national bank) shall pay to
the treasurer of the United States, in
the months of January and July, a duty
of one-half of one per centum each half
year upon the average amount of it's
notes in circulation, and a duty of one
year upon the average amount of it's
deposits, and a duty of ~one-quarter of
one per centum each half year on the
average amount of its capital stock be-
yond the amount invested in United
States bonds" Yours truly.
