Tlie western farmer proposes to have jometliing to suy about extortionate rail way freights, when certain corHr.itions jieek to earn fat dividends oo stock water rt! several times isactua', cus. Thus jlte Farmers' Alliance" of Minnesota iias submitted a tk;cai,alion to the rail j'oad commissioners making the jxiint tliat, as the average cost of single track railroads in the fciate does not exceed J20,O0Q a mile, hence rates for fieirht tind passengers should cover only a, reas onable interest of the actual cost, tofi?t li ft wit h operating and maintenance ex penses. Again, the Alliance submit hiat there should be no discrimination in railroad fates, in favor of large cities and against small places; also that the shipper must have the right to choose jiis market and route to market, without fjie arbitrary dictation of any railroad jomiiany. The farmers recognize the great value of railroads, and are willing o assist in. earning a fair rate of interest pn capital actually invested. They do object to anv system of railway tariff based on an attempt to earn di videos on jctitious capitalizations. American Cul tivation. HOW TO RUN A NEWSPAPER. 1.
