THE ALLIANCE -INDEPENDENT. JANtURY 25 !S9f Farmers Right and the Railroad". Being the owner of a farm in Wayne county Netrvka, on which was raised thi past year three car loads of corn, and bating bo stock there to feed the corn to; and having a farm la thli place en which little corn was raised, and stock on It to which I deird to feed train, I determined to bring one car at Vast of my corn here for my own use. And thereupon I directed my bob to shell out acd resd to me six or seven hundred bushels of corn. He got it shelled in gocd shape and It was a food quality aid dry. He then went to Win aide, and asked the station agent of the Chicago, St Paul, Minneapolis & "a"" ha Railway Co., for a car in which to load the corn, The agent then asked if the corn was in sight. He was told that the corn was shelled, and In a bin at the farm ready to ship as soon .as a tar was furnished. The agent said that would not do, that it must be at the railroad track ready to load before he oo aid order a car. And absolutely re fused to furnish a car, and exhibited a letter from the superintendent of the road, showing that the agent was follow ing the Instructions- of the superinten dent la this matter. I am informed that other farmers on the line of this road have been treated the same way. To require that farmers shall bring up twelve or fourteen loads of grain in front of the station, and there keep them until a car is ordered, and arrives, is nothing more nor less than an absolute refusal to transport grain for farmers. These conditions are a subterfuge too glaring to deceive vena child. Thereupon I was com pelled to buy a load of corn at Wayne of a dealer, pay twenty cents a bushel for It, when the market price on the tame day In the ma place was eight teen cents. In other words I was com pelled to pay the dealers two cents a bushel one-ninth part the value of my corn for the privilege of transporting eorn over the road. Farmers of Nebraska, how long do you propose to submit to such contemp tible meanness on the part of railroad companies. This railroad' company received Its franchise to be a oerporatlon the special and extraordinary privilege of entering upon farmers' land without ISielr permission or consent, survey and -'' lay out ita road; to compel them to sell It as much land as it needed for the oastruction and operation of its road; to run across public highways, sub jecting the people who travel the high ways to dangers and delay; suDjecuDg them to dangers by Ires scattered by ita looomotives, and manv other incon veniences not necessary to mention; and these privileges were granted It, for the reason that the road was to be made, used and operated for the benefit and convenience of the public, the whole publlo and not any chosen part of the oeoDle. This company received from the state these Drlvlleires upon the condition and ander the obligation, legal and moral to construct a safe road, to furnish cars, motive power and men sufficient to transport all passengers, and all freight which the publlo, and the people de sired transported. The whole community and every In dividual of the community has a legal rifht to be accommodated, and not mere ly sueh persons as the company might in its arbitrary caprice choose to accom modate. Potter In his work on corporations, speaking of railroads, says, "they are open for the publlo use, without dla crimination." In another place speak intr of railroad corporations he says "In their very nature and constitution these corporations become in certain resoeots public agents, and the omse quence is they must In the exercise of their calling, observe to all men a per feet Impartiality." This doctrine has time and time again keen announced by courts of last resort. Each and every farmer has the right to tr&uisort his strain over the road. And the railroad company is under a legal and moral obligation to furnish each and every farmer with cars, and to transport his grain and other pro duets. It is no excuse for the oo jo pan 7 to say it has not a sufficient number of cars. For one of the conditions upon which It obtained existence, was that It would furnish cars, and not to do so laa violation of Its duty, and when this corporation refuses to furnish fanners cart, and to transport their grain, It is guilty of a misuse of its cor porate franchise. It It a well eatabllshed legal doctrine that wren a corporation misuses its fraachlae It is A forfeiture of all rights to be a corporation. "A boo-performance of the coedUiont I the act of Incorporation 1 dt-etned f$tM t mlitstr, tht will forfait the graatcvea at wibhob law." Ha said the supreme court of New York la Wendell, vol. 23. rate 201. On this principle, the iVderal courts recently coaficaUd thousands of dol ira of ttropertv belonging to the church 4 the latr Day Saints A ad jt the nW4 by the rnr h 01 iu iraaiv was t o great and til I mi afvet the f-itV.S if trtwb, at !N !f 7 !hU faUr.-ad cvttay of lu rrawtiW- II trocdUa! ia th niur of f tifra', comuiuird sgaltwt tMa rallrot l a.Mspaay for its rvfuaat to far tUh car, and trtaapori tbe grata tf the faa', thvte is ao r why the court should not decree its franchise forfeited, an Its ouster of the right to be a corporation, or operate its railroad unlets the court should exercUe a dis cretion unwarranted by the circum stances. But under present legislation the state will not commence and prosecute the necessary proceedings; but will leave the trouble and expense of such proceedings to the Individual whose rights have been Invaded. And few in dividuals have enough at stake to authorise them to measure arms with one of these corporatloas. The policy ef all railroad companies la to fight every thing, believing that by so doing they will so intimidate many of those having claims against tbem, that they will make no effort! to enforce their claims. They charge all costs arising out of the needless litiga tion to expenses. And when laws are proposed, regulating their compensa tion for carrying passengers and freight they insist that their expenses shall be taken into account in determining the amount they shall be permitted to charge, thereby subjecting the public to the payment of costs on both sides of all ltiga'lon. Private individuals are therefore not competent to cope in litigation with these corporat.on8, and should not be required to in matters relating to the misuse of corporate franchises. These corporations are the creatures of the sovereign power of the state. They are children of the states beget ting; and when ltscontemptlble,knavl8h brats need chastisement the state should administer it, and not throw the burden on individuals. If a tbiet steals a hone, or breaks in to a house and steals goods, or a swind- er under false pretenses defrauds a person of a few dollars, the state does nstask the owner to prosecute the criminal. The state prosecutes at Its own ex pense, and by its own officers on the ground that bringing criminals to pun ishment is a matter which eoncerns the public. The refusal to perform legal obliga tions, which are conditions upon which corporation received its franchise and privileges, is a matter which con cerns the publlo, and the state should see that these obligations are performed, or that the corporation shall cease to enjoy the franchise and privileges. The superintendent of the road must be ignorant of the fact that by refusing to furnish cars and transporting tbe grain of farmers he is putting at defl anoe the laws of the state, is violating one of the conditions upon which bis corporation came Into existence; and Is trampling upon the rights of a portion of the publlo. For otherwise the only explanation I am able to give for his conduct is that it arises from innate cussedness, or a combination with the elevator owners along the line of the road for gain, coupled with the Cal vlnlstlo doctrine of total depravity, which I am not willing to suppose. Farmers of Nebraska, you need a stat ute which shall in substance provide that every railroad company owning a railroad ia the state, shall, at all sta tlons build a siding sufficient to stand upon it at least three cars, with such grading and filling as will enable wagons to drive to the cars, and con veniently unload into the cars; and that when any person shall notify the agent at a station that a car or cars are want ed to load with grain or other freight, It shall be the duty of the company, within thirty-six hours after such notice to furnish a car or cars suitable for the freight to be transported, and place tbe same on the siding, and when loaded that the company shall without delay transport said freight to its p'ace of des tlnntlon, if such place is on the line of its road; and if beyond to the next car rier toward the place of destination. And that for so transferring no man shall be charged more than Is legal. And further previde that la case any rail road shall refuse er neglsot to perform these duties such refusal or neglect shall be absolutely a forfeiture of lit franchise, and that when the Attorney General shall be notified of such re fusal or neglect, it shall be his duty at once to commence proceedings in quo warranto to enforce the forfeiture. Dang the beheading sword over the unscrupulous, soulless knaves by single thread. When the corporations are made to understand that tholr life depends upon their faithfully perform Ing their duties to the publlo, that they cannot dltrtrard the conditions upon which they obtained existence, ami live, their superintendent will no len ger trample upon the right of the pub llo. Farmers, It Is high time fer you to throw party to the dags; and to stand united as one man, until you secure those right that are no withheld from you. Tbe power Is in your hands.

Power's meetings was held at Mlnden yesterday and was a grat success both in numbers and enthusiasm. If the same interest is manifested all along the line it will be only a short time until the Alliance will be restored to its old time vigor tad usefulness. President l'a'e met with u, and his remarks, although few, were earnest and full of timely advice. I believe Bro. Powers never did better, and that Is saying a great deal, but it Is Impossi ble that anyone could have heard and not been benefited thereby. Everyone that hears him is impressed with his earnest and honest purpose to make tbe lot of the toiler better and happier, and to make the title American citizen more to be desired than a monarch's crown. The speeches of these visiting broth ers took up so much time of tho county Alliance that there was no time for tbe election of officers, and a recess was taken for one week, when the county officers will be elected, and a good turn out is expected. The following resolu tion was adopted unanimously: Resolved. That we heartily con gratulate our senator. Hon. Wm. V. Allen and his co-workers in their efforts before the supreme court of our nation to stop the issue of government bonds by the secretary of the treasurer. I believe the Alliance must soon arouse to more decided action, or our children will not be free even in name. There never was a time when "eter nal vigilance" seemed as necessary to me as it does now. The worst enemies of the Alliance are its proffered friends who would have us think our work was accomplish ed, whereas it is ocly begun. We must educate and agitate until every demand for right and justice is enacted into aw. Yours for Industrial freedom. Mrs. J. T. Kellie. Meeting of tbe National Karratrs Alliance.

Editor Alliance-Independent: What I think should be done to carry the state for our party next year. . Organize at once all along the line first by organizing people's Party clubs in every town, and where we have county officers of our party at the county seats. L9t them take hold and get up evening discussions at least once a week at stated times and places free to all, under such rules as will best promote good order. We must carry this discussion on In our towns, as they are where we always get our defeat, and the reason Is, our principles are not understood near aa well in towns as in the country on ac count of thfl towns getting their infor mation from the daily press, a monopoly tool, The country gets mojt of tbe re form papers, and therefore its readers are better informed on the issue of the times. Let the Omaha platform be our basis for discussion. If our people will take hold and work faithfully through the winter for our cause and meet ali oppo- tltlon so, we shall sweep this state next fall. But we must be in earnest and the re form press must be united as one man (and not fight eur own men). Respectfully Yours, N. F. Wasmund. Central Committeemen, Sheridan Co. Neb. Tbe Usurers of Norway. Editor Alliance-Independent, In your issue of July 6th, 1893, you have an article on the financial condi tion of Norway. The constitution of that country was adopted In 1814 or 15, It prohibited the Jews from entering that country, but in 1848 the prohibi tion was repealed. No doubt the au.horities were taught to understand how tbe people could be set to work and bring debt upon them' selves by labor. One of their national songs begins: 'Sonsof Norse that very old country.' Then it proclaims; "Liberty to think, liberty to talk, liberty to work for the good of the country" making bonds for the Jews. After they had here Inflated the cur' rency to their satisfaction they changed the coin from dollar to crown no doub, "strengthened the publlo credit," by making the people pay two dollars In stead of one. Then thev demonetized the crown, except in payment for labor showing that "it shall be the policy of King Voorhees to use both gold and silver as money. Yours Reap. H. O. Olsen. One of the Beginning ef Evil. Editor Alliance-Independent: Dear brother in the new movement which Is needed very much.

The second annual meetin; of the Cyclone Co. occuired January 17 and 18,' at the Windsor Hotel in this city. The Secretary-Treasurer's report showed that the Company had iocreased $120,000 during the year and that they had nearly ?350,00) Insured. 124 appli cants had been received in '93 for which agents had been paid 1124 or II each. The Secretaries fees for the year was 162 or 50c per application, and other expenses were In proportion. If the Company bad overpaid agents in the field we could now boast of having a large amount of insurance, but w pre fer to grow slow and give our members just what they think they are paying for. We had one logs of 1300 during the year, an4 paid it In thirty days from date of adjustment. The following officers were elected: Samuel Llchty, Falls City, President; L N. Leonard, Lincoln, Vice President; J. Y. M. Swigart, Lincoln, Secretary Treasurer. Directors to serve one year Samuel Llchty, 3: G. Neff of Raymond, and Wm. Young of Palmyra.

Hence the name will in in the future be the Nebraska Fire, Lightning and Cyclone Insurance Company, We want agents for Cyclone depart ment In every community ia the state, and agents for both departments where there ara no local fire companies. The fare department Is added only because there are so many localities in which there is no chance to place their insur ance in a mutual company which h running according to their liking.

The Missouri Pa cific Railway company filed a petition in the supreme court yesterday as plaintiff in error asking for a reversal of judgment for $3,500 obtained by John F. Tietken. who sued for $10,000 damages. Tietken started from Scio to Chicago in charge of some stock. He got off the train to take advantage of twenty minutes for dinner as an nounced by the conductor. Before the twenty minutes expired "the conduc tor suddenly and excitedly called out to the plaintiff that he must immedi ately get on board said train, or he would be left and could not accompany his stock." He attempted to obey, but the train moved off, his feet slipped,' his right foot was crushed by tho wheels and had to be amputated. His big toe on the other foot was also crushed and had to b$ amputated. The railway company saya the plain tiff waa Injured by his own negligence and asks for a reversal. Miss Sharpensteen, the young colored girl who left Jylncoln recently, has re tumid home. It will be remembered that she went away with Constable Mallorv, the colored man who waa so pleased with his re-election to office that he eloped, leaving a wife and large nnpald debts behind, lite girla atatea that a pretended marriage ceremony waa performed before they left Lincoln, but when ahe obtained newa at Detroit of the truth concerning tha atatetnent that Mallory waa already a lawful huaband, ahe eon f muted him.
