p
Tim reports of railroad earnings for the
past nine months are generally favorable.
The aggregate gain on 65 railroads is
l about $17,740,000 , or 0 per cola , only
14 roads reporting a decrease. The
Central Pacific lost the most heavily ,
while the Canadian and Northman
Pacifica , the Milwaukee and St. Paul
i and the roads in the south and southwest
were the largest gainers. The Milwau

f # Youxa Mr. Estabrook after writing a
aeries of foul attacks on Judge Savage in
tlto .Rrpubltcut has finally ventured to
sign his initials to a communication. One
of his objections is that tim Judge
has not favored young layers while ho
was on the belch , Mr. Estabrook has
no reason to complain. Like Mr. Sent.

ONI : of the weighty points made by time
J'17)Ubticun against Judge Savage is
that his practice has not beat extensive
in the Suprentu court , Time present Su.
promo court was orgnnired eight years
ago and during that period Judge Savage
has boon on time bench eovon years nod
debarred from practicing by a constitutional -
tional profiaieu. Prior to that time very
few cases were taken up under time old
constitution. The entire reports of the
court prior to Judge Sarngo'soleclion are
contained in four or five volumes , and
these include all time reported cases do
sided under the Territorial Government.
Compared with time few lawyers 'who prac
ticcd in the courts of Nebraska from the
first organization as a Territory , Judge
Savage's reported cases are necessarily
not large. The firm of Savage & Man ,
dersoi was admittedly one of the ablest
in this portion of the State , Senator
Mandorson was the j unior partner. But for
several years their business was more of a
commercial than of an equity character ,
and r.any of their equity cases begun
before Judge Savage's elections were
mftorwards carried up to time Suprentu
Court mid there won. The entire ntun-
bar of cases in Nebraska or which ap
peals wore taken have quadrupled
throughout time State since the change in
the constitution , and on this account no
fair comparison can be made between time
present time and eight years ago Time
