A MeteorIc Display.

In the year 1888 there was observed
in various parts of the world, meteo-
ric display of surprising brilliancy ,and
many were the conjectures regarding
its cause. Astronomers gavethe matter
much attention and soon predicted
that in 1866 there would be similar
display. These predictions were full
filled on November l3, 1866 when the
meteors again appeared; and, especial
ly in the constellation Leo, the fall of
these bright bodies was estimated to be
100, 900 an hour for FIVE or six consecu-
tive hours. At that time it was known
that these meteors pursued an orbit
similar to that of the earth.
Why these so-called shooting stars"
are in existence we can only guess, but
the idea advanced by astronomers is
that there was at one time another
planet in existence. Whether this
planet was destroyed by combustion
or whether the matter forming this
celestial body did not readily form a
solid mass, is not known; the only fact
remaining is the existence of the debris
of the planet, yet travelling its accus-
toned orbit. The only time these are
visible to our own planet is when the
Leonids Ia name given to them by
scientific men) and the earth meet
where the orbits of the two inteIsect
each other. The date of this meeting
never varies more than two days, gen.
orally appearing on November 18th of
every 33d year. Three of these showers
have occurred during the 10th century.
Since November 18th, 1900 there have
been some five hundred of these me-
teors placed in private and public col
lections.
The next display will occur between
the 10th and 10th of this month and will
equal if not surpass the showers of '33
or '66. The sight will be interesting
and instructive and should be observed
by all

MEDDLING IN POLITICS.
One of the greatest evils of the pres
ent system is the proneness of these cor
porations to Intervene in politics.
Realizing that a government by the peo-
pie is only possible when the govern
| ment is kept untouched by the power
of great moneyed combinations, there is
nothing which arouses public indigna-
tion more than the almost unconcealed
interference Of these corporations in the
nomination and election of legislators,
congressman, governors and United
States senators. Their contributions to
presidential campaign funds is a nation
al scandal. Worse than all is their in
fuence in the appointement Of the life
judiciary Of the federal government and
recent evidence given before the indus
trial commission shows that they are
not above tampering with the nomin-
alton and election Of state judges chosen
by the people.
1t is not for such purposes as these
that corporations are chartered. Their
interference in such matters is not to
advance but to thwart the public inter-
est. Such expenditures of efforts and
of money are not made without expecta-
ton of most adequate returns They
are not necessarily made in behalf Of
either political party, for the late Jay
Gould cynically expressed the truth
when he said that "in Democratic dis
trict he was Democrat and in a Re-
publican district Republican, but in
every one railroad man. This inter-
ference in the nomination and election
Of public oficials fatigues popular in
dignation even more than the lobbies
maintained in congress and state legis-
latures, to effect legislation, and is
great lever toward forcing demand for
government ownership of railroads.
DISCRIMINATION IN RATES.
The greatest of evils attendant upon
the present system, viewed from a finan-
cial standpoint, greater than exces-
sive rates, and more dificult to repress,
because secret, is discrimination in
rates. BY this means individuals and
even cities can be destroyed and others
built up by their destruction. The
Standard Oil company, which forced
the railways to carry its products at
30 cents per barrel while compelling
them not only to charge all others 80
cents per barrel, but even to pay the
extra SO cents paid by it's rivals into
the Standard Oil treasury, is sample
of the methods of these modern high
waymen, the trusts. THE Standard Oil
company is shown to have received from
the railroads $10,00O,O0O bonus by this
means in 18 months. Other corpora
tions have followed the same methods
until small manufacturers have been
crushed out and equality of opportunity
which was the boast of our institutions
has become non-existent.
The crucial question for solution is
whether the interference Of great cor
porations In politics and their secret

control and which possibly may be
remedied without calling in government
ownership; and take 1t this is what
you wish to hear
THE MASSES ARE JUST.
The masses of our fellow citizens are
intelligent and just. They have no
hostility to railroads as such, but only
to their abuses. They recognize the i'm
mense value of railroads, their indispen-
sable assistance in the development OF
this country. By individual, city, coun-
ty, state and national subscriptions they
have aided the construction of the rail-
road system of this country. They have
seen individual stockholders "frozen
out;" they have seen city, county and
state holdings displaced that great
manipulators may become the owners of
these properties. They have seen more
than $500, 900, 900 Of national aid given
in lands and bonds disappear like the
baseless fabric of vision and leave
scarce a wrack behind. These things
they have endured and would even for
give if the present management of these
systems would be fair and just
1t was a Frenchman who maliciously
defined lawyer as gentleman who
rescues your property from the enemy
and appropriates it himself" It will be
small advantage to the public If the rail-
roads develop the country merely to
own its profits themselves, for the value
of land depends upon the amount Of
profits taken out Of its produce for
transportation.
RAILROAD EARNINGS
The returns to the interstate COM
merce commission for the year ending
June 30, 1899, are not yet in, but TAX
ing the returns for June 30, 1898, and
making allowance for increase at the
same ratio which they showed over the
previous year, it may be roughly esti
mated that there were 100000 miles of
railway in the United States on June 30,
1899, and that the railroad receipts for
the year ending on that day were 1,40O
million dollars, of which 500 millions
were net profit. It. may also be said
that two-sevenths of the receipts were
from passengers (of whom more than
600 million were carfied) and that the
total of bonds and stocks upon which
these corporations were paying or en-
deavoring to pay dividends and interest,
is (according to Poor's Manual and
other good authoritiesl something more
than double what It would cost to re-
place all the railroads with their equip
ment and properly Of all description.
The 100 per cent Or more ofsbonds and
stocks above actSA1 salue is due largely,
but not altogether, 30 watering, for to
some extent it reprsseuts extravaganza
in construction and shrinkage in values.
The immen1e vdlune of this business,
whose receipts aggregate nearly three
times, and whose net revenues about
equal, the total receipts. of the national
government, shows that&it must be reg
ulated by public Ieoatroi in some form.
1t touches the pubaie welfare at too
many points to be leA by
no considerations superior to the profits
of the corporations. or the caprices OF
their managers. At the same time the
