ANCIENT POLITICS.

A correspondent writing from
Tolo asks us If the statement Of a
republican neighbor that the demo-
Gratis began the system Of giving
away the public lands to the cor
porations is correct or not.
The statement of the republican
neighbor is half right and half
wrong. No democratic congress
ever made a land grant directly to
a railroad. But between 1850 and
1860 democratic congresses fire.
quently made land grants to the
several states in order to enable
the state receiving the grant to ex-
tend aid to railroad builders with
in its borders. This system was
abandoned by the republicans,
who, in 1862, adopted the plan of
making congressional land grants
directly to railroad corporations.
The first land grant for railroad
purposes was made in 1850, and
consisted Of about 100000 acres
granted to the state of Illinois, and
it was used to aid the Illinois Cen
trail railroad. But the state Of H.
linois did not make this land over
to the road as free gift. 1t was
made condition of the charter
granted to the railroad that it
should pay to the state perpetually
seven per cent. OF its gross earn
ings, which that read has been
paying into the state treasury
right along. In 1856 nearly q
100000 acres was granted to Flor
ida, and a like area to Arkansas.
while other states received large
tracts, most of which was used to
encourage railroad building. This
was under democratic administra-
tons, and it will be noted that the
land was used for the purpose in
tended, and there were no scandals
about unearned land grants. The
wholesale giving away of the pub.
| lie lands Of the United States tt
railroads began with the building
! of the Pacific railroads, the repub
; lican congressman who made the
grants being more anxious to get {
good thing for themselves an(
partners than to apply the land il
the most economical way to the do
velopment of the recources Of thu
country. The unearned lant
grants that have been reclaimed
were nearly if not all recovered b.

!. Cleveland's first administration

i shall oppose in the future, as I
have in the past, all attempts to
demonetize the silver dollar, or to
take away its legal tender, or to
transfer the issue OF our paper cur

But in spite OF this disclaimer
the republican papers will still
gaily continue their lying an
nouncement that Cockell, Vest,
Towne, Teller and all the host OF
the old silver guard, have aban-
doned free silver and are now sup
porting the gold standard. Prob
ably the wish is father to the
thought. But they may IS well
bear in mind the fact that Of all

zens who voted for Bryan 10 1906
not one is ashamed Of it, and all
are anxious to renew the fight
against plntocracy and the trusts
