Of tlio Rnllroml
The follow ing conversation , botwc
a railroad man and a citircn , brk
illustrates 601110 of tlic main points
tlio so-called railroad controversy :

Citizen. "There are tlio follow ]

The railroad corporation performs

and other methods , the public has bi

Regarding competition , it does i

Railroad Oilicial. "But prices :
railroad transportation have doclin
faster and are now proportionati
lower than in most other countries ,
does not look as if the public inter
had sufl'ered very much. "
Citizen. "True , in many plai
rates have largely declined , but i
nearly so much as they should ho
done. Reduced rates for transpor
tion have largely resulted from n
chanical improvements which h :
been made , and also from increase
business , tlio result of increased po ]
lation. For instance , steel rails l.i
Ing from three to six times as long
iron rails , now cost but little mi
than iron ; locomotives haul from fi
to sixty per cont. more than they i
ten years ago. Freight cars weigh :
ten tons a few years ago only carr
ten tons , or a ton of paying f roi |
for each ton of dead weight in roll
stock. Improvements in these c
have been niado until it is not mice
mon for them to now carry a ton t
a half , and sometimes two tons ,
each ton of rolling stock. Clover
volitions have enabled the supplj
labor required in operating a road
bo greatly reduced , and in many of.
ways improvements have been elli
cd which ought to inure to the be
lit of the public. Hates for railn
transportation in this country she
be much less than in other count ]
because of these improvements , .
the long hauls and cheaper constr
tion hero ; also the public aid in h
( upwards of forty-six millions of acn
and subscriptions which have b
given. "
Railroad Official. "Why BO ?
don't see that the public has any rite <
to these improvements- adv
tages , unless wo cheese to give th
the benefit. "
Citizen. "There is whore wo i
for again ; the theory of our pat
law is that after the inventor has
coivcd n fair compensation for
trouble , expense and genius , all
rest of Iho advantages belong to
public ; and the theory of our railn
law is that they are only entitled <
toll or charge which will yield the
fair return on the actual investnu
and this toll must bo uniform and
partial to all citizens. "
Railroad Ollicial. Well , if tha
the ground you take , you won't I
many men going into the railr
business. "
Citizen. "Won't wo ? What is
first incentive to the building c
railroad ? Is it not very largely
desire of the people of n certain i
tion to have bettor outlets to marl
and the desire of owners of real csl
to make their property moro valui
by connecting with the larger line
communication ? Through these :
tiyes have not state , county and ;
nicipal interests largely aided in
construction of these improved hi
ways ? Witness the millions of del
which the people of the state of I
York , as well as other states , h
contributed for this purpose. Demean
mean to toll mo that the Yandorh :
Goulds , and ether highway grabl
are entitled to any consideration
the invention and construction

simply gene into the business beet
they saw that thn benefits of st <
and slectricity were so enormous I
they could steal most of the adi
tages , and that the public woulc
Batisfiod with the rest. They saw I
by consolidating and combining HI
and often competing links of railn
they could organize a machinery
taxing all production and comiuo
such as the world has never seen ,
it is only after they have oxprc :
tins power to an extent which
given them fabulous wealth , and
deavored to perpetuate the ayst
and rivet the fetters of a pririle
class upon the masses by corrup
our elections nnd legislation , that t
[ looplo are beginning1 to wake up t (
true appreciation of the facts. I
nt the history of the Harlem nw
when Commodore Vnnderbilt obtai
ed possession of that road ho doubl
the rates of freight , and on the pri
ciplc of charging 'what the tral
would boar' has drained the Hoi
share of the profit of product !
throughout that entire region , and
far as circumstances would perm
ho has pursued the same policy with
his railroad ventures. When ho to
possession of the Harlem road , twoii
years ago , its stock was quoted
about § 75 per share , and the rate
freight nt that time for transport !
milk to Now York was 30 cents i
can ; it was gradually raised to GO , n (
only after n great contest did Iho pi
i > lo succeed in reducing it to'itspn
out price of15 ( as against an avorn
of 20 cents for similar service eh
where ) . Notwithstanding the om
mous general incroaau in populatii
and values , property in matches !
county along the line of that roadcu
tiguous as it is to the greatest maik
in the country , is worth less to-d
than it was when Mr , Vntldorbil
reign began. The reason may
found in the doubled rates above mo
tioncd. The capitalization of the ro :
is much above what it could bo ttnp
cated for to-day , and yet dividon
have been wrung from the people
that section to make the stock wor
8180 pur share at the present timo.
' The Hudson River _ road tuns ju
nllel with the Haileni , is operated '
the same management , and yet , hn
ing water competition , the aver.i
rates of freight on the latter road n
only about half tlioso on the Harloi
No ono doubts that the rates on t
Hudson River road are sutliciontly i
inunorativo , nor that tlioso on t
Harlem are exorbitant. It is n sini ]
illustration that 'might makes righ
and that a frco-booter , if ho only u
dorstands the habits of the Amoric
people , can rob thorn with impunil
The instances I have cited are I
types of our whole railroad system ,
it any wonder that railroad mon gn
suddenly rich , while the number
tramps and beggars increase ? "
lluilroad Oflicial. "Nowinyfrieii
you are getting n little excited : 1
Vnnderbilt is not charging the pee ]
along the line of the Harlem road
much as it cost them before the ri ;
road was built , nnd yet you call hin
freo-booter ; if you don't like the rat
wo clmrgo , why don't you wagon yo
produce to market , or go to tlio log
laturo , and get it to reduce thd rate
freight ? "
Citizen. "Well , there is soi
freight wagoned to market now , rip
alongside of the greatest invention i
carrying freight cheaply and quid *
that has ever been made , but I do r
think it is right that any man or i
of men should bo allowed to mono } :

vouchsafed in a greater degree to t
people of other sections , whoso pi

I do not think it right that Mr. Vn
dorbilt should abrogate the natural n
vantages of the contiguity of my prr
erty to this market by charging i
higher proportionate rates of freigl

other than the 'cost of service witl
fair profit added thereto- and whor
say a fair profit , I mean not moro tli

Mr. Vaudorbilt originally put ii
that road , and not upon watci
stock , or stock issued to roprosc
'surplus earnings , ' ( which is really t
people's money ) invested in extend )
or improving the road. Such bott
monts should be made with Mr. Vi
derbilt's own money , or money actu
ly subscribed for that purpose , nnd
which stock may legitimately bo
sued ; and as regards the second p
ot your question , 'Why the people
not go to the legislature and have i
rates lowered , " I want to say to 3
that this is just what wo propose
do. I say this with the full knonrloi
that you railroad men are send
money into districts all over the st
( and other states as well ) , to iniluoi
nominations or elections ; that i
votes of individual citizens are boui
and sold almost as freely as any oil
merchandize ; that you send ov
member of tlio legislature , before
takes his seat , a free pass , and t
many influential politicians , edit
and clergymen are shown the sa
'attentions' ; oven coroners and tax
scssors along your lines being thus
mcmborod. 1 say it , knowing that I
most eloquent advocates will appeal
Albany to plead your cause ; that n
who are elected to the legislature
your interest , while nominally rej ,
scnting that of the public , will seen
obstruct legislation , and trade tli
votes to serve you ; that your
vortising patronage will bo oxer
upon newspapers and that shipp
will bo provided with profcreni
rates to advocate a continuance
the present system , which gives
favored few an advantage over tli
neighbor * , and that where all th
fail you will resort to direct bribi
to accomplish your ends. The tasl
a great one , but in time it will bo
complished , T believe that laws
lining the public rights will bo pa's :
by the Legislatmo of every Stuto , r
that the Congress of the Uni
States will pass the Itcagan bill ,
some other honest bill for the regi
tion of intor-Stato commerce , t
that executive bodies will bo provit
to supervise the operation of pul
highways , and euo that these lawn ;
executed. "Either this , or the St
will annul existing charters , and
assume her function ( > vhich sho'
temporarily delegated ) of furnish
public highways , "
Railroad oflicial. "You would ]

better and cheaper service than

Citizen , "No , that is not not
