The Goebel law and its author
have been abused without stint, not
only by Republicans, but by such
immaculate Democrats as John
Young Brown, Bolivar Buckner and
Madeline Pollard Breckenridge, who
have denounced the law as the sum
of all villianies and Mr.. Goebel as
the prince of rascals. Now, the
reader will be surprised to learn
that it has precedents in other
States-in Arkansas, in Ohio (think
of it) and in Michigan. 1t was in
pursuance Of thu Kentucky consti-
tuition, which authorizes the legisla-
ture to decide contested elections
and provided board chosen from
the legislature to decide such con-
tests The decision of this hoard,
however, was not to be final, but
was to be reported to the legisla-
ture. 'fhe Cour, of Appeals, with
only one dissenting voice, has de-
cided that the recent action of the
legislature was constitutional and
not subject to review by the courts.
And it must be remembered that
two of the concurring judges are
rabid Republicans.-Dail States.

The existence of fissure veins is pri-
marily due to one or more fault planes,
assures of seams forming ducts for the
ore-bearing solutions. The ore pro-
per, which is constituted of various
sulphides with gangue of more or
less quartz, calcite, ETC., occurs chiefly
along these separating planes and on
seams connected with them. The typi-
cal fssure vein may be regarded as a
single break along which, through
faulting, more Or less continuous open
spaces were formed and subsequently,
filled with ore. On both sides of this
filling there is gradually fading zone,
in which more or less extensive alter
alton of the country rock has taken
place.-Ex.

The Leading Railway Systems of
the United States.

The process of absorption of smaller
concerns by large corporations is fully
as marked among the railroads as it
is among the great manufacturing in
dustries. The growth in mileage of
the largest roads is truly phenomenal,
and it will surprise many to learn that
upon this continent there are three
separate systema, each of which has a
total mileage which is almost half as
great as the total mileage of Great
Britain. The largest aggregation con-
trolled by any one company is that OF
the New York Central Railroad, which
totals 10, 4lO miles; making very
close second is the Pennsylvania sys-
TEN with 10, 1892 miles, while the great
Canadian Pacific Overland route and
connection total 1O,OlS miles. Another
trans-continental line of almost equal
size is the Southern Pacific, which
owns and controls 9, 1862 miles. There
are four companies controlling from
| 1000 to 5000 miles: seven companies
controlling from 5000 to 1000 miles !;
three companies from 5000 to 5000
miles: and nine companies controlling
from 1000 to 5000 miles of track, the
total mileage controlled by twenty
eight companies being nearly 10000
miles. OF the five trans-continental
companies, the Canadian Pacific and
the Southern Pacific with over 10000
and 1900 miles respectively are by far
the largest. The Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe comes next with 1880
miles, followed by the Union Pacific
with 1854, the Northern Pacific with
8, ,449, and the Great Northern with
s, POI miles of track.
