RAILROADS PAY THEIR DEBT
TO THE U. S. GOVERNMENT

WASHINGTON, July 31.-Acting
Secretary of the Treasury COLLEGE to-
day received from the Central Pacific
Railroad company $2,939,661 in pay
ment of the goth and last note and in
liquidation of its total Indebtedness
to the government under the settlement
agreement of February l, 1889.
At the time the total indebtedness
of the railroad to the government was
$58,812,7 l5, for which the company
gave 20 semi-annual notes bearing )
per cent interest. On July oath the
treasury department received from the
company a check for over SO, 900, 900 in
payment for the nineteenth note anil
the payment received today completes
the payment.
This final payment discharges all
obligations of the bond aided roads to
the government with the exception 0!
$3,67S,197, due from the Central branch
of the Union Pacific railroad. From
this road the government has received
practically nothing toward l%iquidating

of his qualifications to lead voters at
the polls. For instance, they would
like to see Gompers himself run for
office. Undoubtedly, they say, Mr..
Bryan would lend his influence to get
the political Moses of labor a nomi-
nation; and that would probably lead
to a settlement once and for all of the
question raised in the Maine campaign
of 1906 whether Gompers had a title
to American citizenship and a right to
exercise the franchise in which he is
meddling constantly.
Having once taken the plunge for
Mr.. Bryan and assured him of the sup
port of labor, there can be no drawing
back by Gompers. Mr.. Bryan may re-
pudiate the anti-injunction plank if he
finds that the Hill bill as promulgated
by Senator Patterson is correct, or he
may "stand pat if he can convince
passing the senate so as to make a
trial by jury peremptory. But Com
pers cannot repudiate Bryan, no matter
how actively he may wriggle. He is
committed and must go on and deliver
what odds and ends of the labor vote
may consent to follow his leadership
at the polls.-American Industries for

THE DILEMMA OF aoMpERs

The events of the last two weeks,
including and following the Democratic
national convention at Denver, Colo j,
have placed Samuel Gompers, the pres
ident of the American Federation of
Labor, in the exact position in which
the employers of the United States
and a very large number of working
men have long desired to see him.
Gompers has assumed the role of polit-
zeal dictator to the wage Garner at the
polls and has proclaimed at Lincoln
during a visit to w. J.. Bryan that he
would deliver the entire union labor
vote to Bryan and Kern
So, at last, there is to be a test OF
the claim Of Gompers that he carries
several millions of w~orkingmen's votes
in his breeches pocket and can deliver
them with equal facility to either
party. Judging from expressions heard
on every side, it is with feelings OF
undoubted satisfaction and relief that
business and labor interests alike have
witnessed this burning of Gompers
bridges behind him. 1t has long been
the hope of well known labor leaders
not in sympathy with Gompers that he
would make a test in other directions

MARTYR TO THE GOOD CAUSE

In its last weeks issue the Love
lock Tribune alleges, to the ac-
compartment of bold-face type, that
the Silver State News has been
sssilenced,' and that the adverse in
fuence of a powerful band of conspiT-
ators prevented its editor from secur-
ing a renewal of his lease on this
plant.
In the everyday vulgar vernacular
there is a very expressive designation
of this sort of talk, but as it is tabooed
by polite society we refrain from using
it.
The Silver State News has no objee-
tion to the editor of the Tribune pos
ing as a martyr to the great cause of
reform, and it is barely possible that
he has forgotten why his lease was
not renewed. If this is the case, and
he will so state, the Silver State News
will undertake to enlighten him on
