OFFICIAL STATE PAPER.

ZOE nls prOQucCs. IL man is engaged III
storekeeping, and the prices Of his goods
90 down on the shelf because he is not
engaged in a monopoly, he has no power
to secure an income upon the original
cost Of his goods. Neither has the
ordinary citizen an opportunity to water
stock and initiate capitalization. He must
calculate his income upon the actual
present value of his property.
"The fact that new man can enter
into business side by side with an ex-
isting store, and buy a stock Of goods
at present prices, Compels the man who
owns the first stock to sell his goods in
competition with those who are in busi-
ness, and who bought at present prices.
This is true Of every occupation except
monopoly.
1T is only that person or that cor
poration which has monopoly that can
lift itself above this general law, and |
call attention of the court to the fact
that il few occupations can secure a
monopoly, and protect themselves from
those rules which govern others, those
who cannot avail themselvea monop.
oily are the helpless prey Of every monop-
oily organized.
"The court in trying to do justice be-
tween the railroad and the State must
remember that the obligation upon the
court to secure reasonable rates to the
man who hauls goods, who uses the road,
is as binding an obligation as the obli-
cation to protect the man who invests
his money in railroad.
"The law says that the railroad is
common carrier. The law says that
man who uses 1t is entitled to it's use
upon the payment of reasonable rates,
and his right to reasonable rates is as
sacred as the right of the road to rea-
sonable income, You cannot raise this
corporation out Of the ordinary rules.
Corporations are created by law.
Laws are made by individuals, and the
court cannot assume that the individu-
ais of the nation would raise up in their
midst fictitious persons and endow them
with rights and privileges higher than
the rights and privileges Of those who
created them. The court cannot as.
sumo without positive proof that the
people engaged in other occupations in.
tended to organize in their midst,
through the operation of the law, cor
porate persons and shield them from the
rules that govern in the other walks Of
life.
'The court is invited also TO consider
this fact--that thore is no innocent pur-
chaser Of stocks or bonds as against the
patron Of the roads The court can pro-
tect the innocent purchaser Of q rail
road bond from any action upon the
part Of the company which would de-
stroy the right Of that holder as against
the road. The court may secure to The
innocent purchaser the legal title to the
bond, but the court is under no obIigs-
tion TO secure the holder of q railroad
bond value in the property upon which
he has taken bond.

Representatives to room 16 at the Veale
block. This will be remembered as the
place where Speaker Street said that he
had met Wilson, the agent Of the Ameri-
can Book Company, He had taken notes
to Brown Of Greeley, Lsrimer, Cubbison,
Foley, Armstrong Of WyandOtte, Fair
child and Marks. He had seen but two
Of the notes. Foley's was a request to
vote against the school book bill and
asked to see him. In Cubbison's was
the following: "Keep your forces in line.
How about RothweilerP" They were re-
Ceived and sent by man who said his
name was Wilson.
G.. w. Moab, a House clerk, said that
Representative Walters had told him
that a man could just as we'll make some
thing as he went along, and that on the
way home he had shown him roll of
bills which he said contained $1,000. He
had previously told him that he had
gotten 800 and was to get $500 more,
He had talked with Boyd and gathered
that it was his business to find out who
could be bought.
Representative Doyle denied the
charges made against him by Dingus.
He had been approached with an offer
Of money if he would vote against the
stock yards bill. He voted against the
school book bill because the teachers OF
his county opposed certain features of it,
and one Of them had written him that Su-
perintendent StTyker was trying to palm
off an inferior manuscript on the people.
Representative Russell said Boyd had
offered him $1,000 to vote against the
stock yards bill. He had told Ravens
craft about it and they had laid trap
to catch Boyd, and he went to the Senate
to arrange some details in the matter
with Crossan, and got There just as Titus
and Jumper were making their expos,
ures.
Fairchild explained that the note, sent
TO Wilson was merely a declination OF
his proposition.
Loomis said that Walters had told him
that there was money init to vote against
the stock yards bill.
Mr.. Keefer thought that if he had
shown a disposition TO accept it he could
have secured $1,000. He said that r. w.
Turner, Secretary of the Railroad Com
mission, had told him that money could
be secured for votes against the school
book bill. He accused Grimes Rep,) OF
unduly influencing the members Of the
Telegraph committee, Of which the wit
ness was chairman. Grimes is a member
Of the investigating committee, and Keef-
er's charge created sensation. He said
that Grimes and Bennett Republican
members OF the commlttee) had tel
egrRph franks, and that they had been
sent to other members. He said that it
was through Crimes influence that no
better work was done by his committee.
Witness said that Ed Carroll told him
that Bailey WaggeneF had $4,000 which
had been given him by the Missouri
Pscihcfor legislative purposes. He said
that Bill Higgins, Oliver Hiatt and
Frank Strickland were lobbyists, but
declined TO make any specific statement,
An adjournment WAS then taken until

Mrs. John Drew, the famous &C
trcss, died Tuesday at Larch-
mont, N. j., aged :, years. No
other American ever occupied
SO conspicuous d position in the
theatrical world at home or
abroad as this woman. She not
only was fine actress, but took
leading parts with all the noted
actors of her day. One Of the
surprising things connected with
her remarkable career is that she
never went to school, but received
her education from reading good
literature and associa ting with
clever people.

A SUNDAY SCHOOL IN BoFsFoRD.

A movement has been started in Bots- ford which promises much good for the district. Mrs M. T. Sheffield, working under the auspices of the Connecticut Sunday School association, began on Monday of last week, in quiet way to go from house to house, and considera- ble religious interest has, as conse- quence, been manifested. A meeting of ladies was called, last Saturday after noon, at the home of Mrs Henry Bots- ford, and it was voted enthusiastically and unanimously to organize Sunday school at once. The first session of the school is to be at Mrs A. B. Blakeman's Sunday afternoon, November IA, at l o'clock. Four homes in Botsford have been kindly placed at the disposal of the school, SO, for the present, it will meet in each of these homes once a month. Mrs Sheffield will act as superintendent until the right person is found to take permanent charge. Mrs Sheffield held religious meetings at the schoolhouse Tuesday and Thursday evenings of this week, woman's meeting on Wednesday afternoon, and children's meeting is called for this afternoon in the school house at the close of school. It is hoped that much good seed may be sown through this work.

The officials of Providence have got into wrangle with the New York, New Haven & Hartford road in regard to an alleged breach of contract in not proYid- ing train shed in connection with the new station in that city. It is evident that Providence people have not pro- gressed with the times and their experi- ence with train sheds has not taught them that they are noisy, dirty unsani- tary and not at all necessary to protect the travelling public from getting wet in rainy weather when boarding a train, as the public may be equally well protected by platform roofs of proper constrac- tion. Besides, in this case, train shed would hide and diahgure the architectur- al features of a now handsome group of buildings. The Consolidated road has made study of all that is best in rail- road construction and equipment and 1t may be relied upon to do the right thing by it's patrons.

The Illinois association of bankers re- gently held at Peoria, developed that the private and country bankers were al. most solid against postal savings banks, while many of those from Chicago and the larger centers look with favor on the idea. While some things in the curren- cy question have been pretty conclusive ly settled, there yet remains much of in- terest to be determined and the postal savings bank agitation can be determin- ed on to bring them to the surface. 1ke details of any and all changes and re- forms will have to be worked out with great care and deliberation. Proper and safe deposit and savings facilities are an absolute need In all parts of the country,
 but such must be secured with the least possible shock and disturbances to ex- isting conditions. It appears that many prominent men in both parties are en- dorsing postal savings banks.
