LOBBYING FOR RAILROADS
Plundering of the People Arranged
For Under the Guise
Of Law.

In the exposure OF the corruption o.
] legislatures by the life insurance com
panies. there is evidence OF the supe
rior organization OF the railroads for
that ubiquitous purpose. In the Ne
Y braska legislature could ret win out
against the railroads" declared w. F..
Y Thummel, the insurance lobbyist. 10
giving his evidence before the commit
4 tee OF the New York legislature. Mr..
Thummel explained TO his inquisitors
that the bill provided for a law that
would lower the taxation of railroad
property while increasing the taxation
on all other property. That bill was
denounced by the democrats when it
was before the legislature. Honest
men told this plain truth two years
ago" says the Nebraska Independent.
and now Il IS beng told by Insurance
lobbyists But the people did not need
to wait until thieves fell out to be-
lieve the truth. The operation Of the
law has at length convinced them that
the bill was introduced as the result
OF a railroad conspiracy. More than
that. it was an act Of revenge II will
be recalled that prior to the passage
OF the bill there had been much agi.
tati0n TO secure Just taxation Of rail
way property and various laws were
suggested. This SO angered the rail.
way attorneys that they decided not
only to defeat all good revenue bills,
but to foist upon the people a law that
would add exiortionate taxation 10 ex-
tortionate railway tariffs. They sue
ceeded in their purpose and now. as
they loll back in their leather chairs.
these same railway attorneys shake
with laughter while they recount the
clever trick they played upon the peo-
pie"
Doubtless the legislatures OF other
states were invaded by these railroad
lobbyists and the plundering Of the
people arranged for under the gulse OF
law.
