The Railway Age presents some COM
narrative facts and figures touching rail-
road failures which, 1t argues, show
greatly improved financial conditions
throughout the country. According to
the Age. since 1876 some 5000 miles of
road have been sold, with 49, 900 of
bonds and stocks. or 80 per cent. of the
present capitalization of all railways in
the United States. That is, over half the
railways have been sold out from failure
to meet their obligations in the last
twenty years. In 1897 no great system be-
came insolvent, the largest failure In
yolving only some 800 miles.
Moreover, says the Age, no year since
1887 has shown so few roads or so small
mileage confessing insolvency, while COM
pared with the record for any one of the
five years Immediately preceding 1897 the
list OF new receiverships in the last year
is surprisingly small in respect to num-
Der OF lines, mileage, and capital involved.
In the panic year 1898, adds the Age,
no less than seventy-four companies.
with % $40 miles OF road. and sl,7Sl 900 900
of bonds and stock, defaulted in their OBJ
LEGATIONS and were turned over TO the
control of the courts. In 1897 the num-
Der Of similarly unfortunate roads was
only eighteen, their mileage was but ,537
and their capitalization was less than

Government by Injunction.

(staunton -Yindicator)
There was no wiser plank in the ma
tional Democratic platform at Chicago
than its protest against government by
Injunction. No one can tell how far the
judiciary will stretch its power In that
direction. The State OF Tennessee has
lust been made to feel 1t. This year the
assessment OF railroad property in that
state was increased so that the aggregate
tax paid by the roads will be s225,0oo In
stead OF $4,000. Judge Clarke. OF the
United States District Court. has, at the
prayer of the railroads, granted per-
petual injunction restraining the State
authorities from collecting the increased
tax. If II comes 10 this, that State
cannot assess the property within It's
limits. then the very existence of State
Is put in peril, for at no time can 1t b

The Cat I'm Wages mt Norfolk Navy
Yard-Confident OF New Trial.

=
NORFOLK, VA, January 6-tSpecial.)--
Congressman Young, accompanied by his
counsel, Judges ID. Tucker Brooke and
Thomas II. Wilcox. left for Washington
tonight to appear before the House EIec-
lions Committee to defend his (Mr.
Young's) seat In the contest Instituted
by DR.. WISE Of Williamsburg.
The navy-yard workmen who are AFFECT
ed by the heavy cut in wages recently
made by the department held a largely
attended mass-meeting I'm Portsmouth, at
which definite action was taken looking
toward restoration OF the old rate.
Mr.. w. H. Fairiess spoke OF q similar
cut In wages two years ago and the sue
cess OF a committee who had called on
Secretary Herbert. who had disapprovcd
the recommendation OF the board OF naval
officers, and let the rate remain uncis-
turbcd.
Hon. William A. Young. member OF
Congress, offered his services to the
workingmen. He thought the action Of
the board of naval officers was wrong,
and that the workingmen OF Portsmouth,
Norfolk. and Berkeley should send a petit
ton to the Secretary OF the Navy asking
that their pay be not reduced. He pro-
missed to see the Secretary on Friday
and do all I'm his power to have the mat
ter adjusted. II was decided TO select a
committee from Portsmouth, Norfolk, and
Norfolk county to go to Washington to
act with Mr. Young. Mr.. Young rendered
free transportation for the committee,
which leaves for Washington Tomorrow.
Mr.. George Mcintosh. counsel for John
Andersen, the cook Of the schooner olive
Pecker, who was recently convicted or
the murder OF Mate Saunders. OF That
vessel. expresses himself as hopeful OF
securing n new trial for his client. The
convicted man himself has supreme con-
fidence in his counsel, who has been his
one friend throughout. The record in the
case. which is now being made up for the
Supreme Court, 10 which the case has
been appealed, Is almost ready TO be
forwarded to washington. Andersen.

Public money is too freely spent. This
ought to be checked. and could be, IL
private efforts were as strenuous as pub
lie utterances. The main obstacle in the
way of reduction is that it curtails the
benefits which some community, class, or
person has heretofore enjoyed, and IN
variably results in protest and opposition
from that particular source. Economy IN
the abstract excites universal enthusiasm,
but abstract economy is OF no value what
ever It must be applied somewhere be-
fore a gain is made, and in the process
of the change from economy in general
to economy in particular the passive de-
sire for one becomes active hostility 10
the other There are many ways IN
which every person of experience in pub
lie affairs knows that large reductions
could be made without the slightest IN
Jury to the public interests. There would
be a denial of benefits to individuals,
but no injustice.
So SAYS Governor Black in his message
TO the Legislature of New York. What
he SAYS is as applicable to Richmond
ana Virginia as to the Empire State.
