"The day may come in the
United States when a multitude
Of people, oppressed by hard
times, will be called upon to
choose rulers. On one side will
stand a statesman preaching pa
thence, respect for vested rights,
and strict observance of the pub
lie faith. On the other side will
stand a demagogue, ranting about
the tyranny of usurpers and
capitalists. Let us hope that if
such a season Of adversely ever
comes, the American nation will
not act like people who would in
a year Of scarcity devour all the
seed corn, and thus make the
next year a year, not Of scarcity,
but of absolute want. "-Macaulay's
great essay on the American Com
monwealth, published in the year
1856.

Pet Arguments.
President James J. tili, in the Great
Northern annual report for the year
ending June 30. 1896. exclusively pub
lished In Tuesdays Pioneer Press
makes the following complete and con-
elusive denial OF two pet a~sseverations
OF Populists and Popocratarchs, via.
that rates have not fallen proportion
ately to the decline Of prices OF other
commodities since 1850, and that wages
have fallen abnormally low:
The progress Of rates. and Of
amounts paid by the public for trans
portation, per unit Of traffic, still main
tain a steady downward course. 1t
cannot be disputed that, during the
past twenty years the price Of no COM
modify bought and sold in the markets
OF the country has fallen 50 fast or so
far as that Of rail transportation.
The articles carried by the Great
-N'l N4tIH SSSbgll, A4le OoISlAFI dbly
more diversified in 1886 thar in 1851, are
substantially OF the same description
as then; yet. in lSsO-sl the average
charge per d per mile was 2.ss cents,
while in 1885 1t had fallen to 1916 Of
/ cent; or to only a little more than
One-third Of the former rate. Has the
price Of any other commodity, or the
rate Of pay for any other class of ser
vice, fallen equally?
In 1885 the revenue to~n-mileage Of
the system was 1922, ST.. 423, and the
cost Of il TO the public was sl5,s33, O9O. A..
Had the rate per ton mile of the year
lssO-sl been charged the earnings would
have amounted to $40, 73S, S69.7s, or $780,
9O5, 1881 more than the companies act
ually collected, and during the same
time the rates Of wages paid by this
company have advanced 10 an average
Of As per cent higher than the average
Of 1SsO-sl."
