some future time II a suit we're to be
brought In State court and It were
proved to jury that the rates were rea.
sOnable, | see no reason why these rates
would not be valid.
The most remarkable feature OF the
decision is that 1t says that II there are
good crops this year so that the farmer
has great deal of grain and stock to
ship, that the rate may be Constltu-
tiOnal; but II there are poor crops, so
that he has little produce to ship, then It
is unconstitutional. The farmer must
care for the railroad and let 1t make It's
usual enormous profit, whether he has
anything left for himself and family or
not. Is not this an OutrageG Why should
not the railroads, as well as others, suf-
fer from hard times? Did any lawyer
ever before hear Of a bill being void part
of the time and valid part Of the time?
To think that such a decision was rem
dered by that august tribunal that can
never be influenced by selfish motives
because their life position carries them
away from the evils and corruption OF
politics!

OTIS s. ALLEN.

OTIS s. ALLEN.
There are yet many people, no doubt,
who do not know how the great railroad
magnates have made their fortunes. Let
us very briefly review some of the
schemes-for they are simply schemes
A railroad company is organized with
capital stock of $1O,OOO,OOO. A few
miles OF road are built. The officials
then induce the people along the pro-
posed route to vote bonds to help pay for
the building Of the road. They pay for
these bonds in stock at its par value
The organizers reserve, perhaps, one
half of the stock for themselves. In
stead Of paying par value for their stock,
however, they pay for $1OO worth Of
stock and 500 worth of bonds only 800,
thereby getting their stock for nothing,
and at the same time they take a first
mortgage on the road. They sell stock
to all others who are foolish enough to
buy. Their bonds become due. The or
ganizers organize new company, fore
close their mortgage and buy in the
road. Where are the small stockholders
and the municipalities which voted

BRIDGES NEED PAINTING
Finance Committee Cannot Find the
Money to Do It

No action was. taken yesterday by the
finance committee relative to the painting of
the city's bridges. 1t is an important mat
ter, and was brought to the notice of the
council by the bridge committee some time
ago. The committee recommended that the
council order the bridges painted, and that
the work be done by day labor. The esti-
mated cost for this improvement was given
at $23OO.
Councilman Baker was very much in favor
|of the work, and said that several of the
bridges had not been painted for seven years.
He argued that it would be poor economy to
allow them to suffer. Mr.. Toll, member of
the finance committee, said he was person
ally in favor of painting them, but could not
see where the money was coming from.
Yesterday the finance committee passed
a demand for $3.50, which represented the
cost OF the cement used in the big pipe line
on South Main street, between Thirty-sev-
enth and Slauson streets.
A demand for $36S28 presented by the
present street sweeping contractor was ap-
proved for $3650l. This is the next to the
last demand that will be presented by the
present contractor, as the system will be
turned over to the city on Tue sday.
