zion to deP'eeate the crusade that is nov

proaters OF high finance. Among other
things he said
There Il 40 much Of the nature Of de-
lirum, in the popular outcry against
railroad corporations, for instance. We
shall al DO ashamed Of it by and By. !
dare say have some reason to know Of
the real iDiquides of corporations, and /
DO know them: but there is much that
is not ouly grouudless, but wrong, in
the ofhand attacks made on the
railroads by thoughtless people on all
hands. What is well founded in them
will be cured, but the craze Of deuuncia'
ton will soon pass. We shall reflect that
railroads are virtually related to our pros
peritv and that to attack them needless
ly is to attack ourselves. It is not the
stock OF soulless millionaires, bat the
property of citizens, of widows and or
phaDs, whose savings are invested in
railroads, that is being damaged, We
shall recall what railroads have been
and are still 10 be in the development OF
our country, and this craze will pass.
OF course, there must be some form OF
governmental supervision, but It should
be planned in o quiet hour, no: in one oil
