A MAD MARCH FOR MONEY ,
Northwest Nebraska Thoroughly Bled by
Railway Highwaymen.
Specimen Jloltl-ups in the Shnpo of
Freight llntcs Bunco Steering
of n High Order.
RcsnviM.n , Nob. , Fob. 10. [ Corres
pondence of tlio HEK. ] It is true , anil it
may bo said without qualification , that
this northwestern part of Nebraska lias
been settled with remarkable rapidity
since the spiing-tido of Immigration real
ly sot in near the vernal equinox of ' 81.
And still they come.
. This section of tlio state Is richly endowed
dewed , possessing as It does in n liberal
degree all the essential elements of physi
cal strength conducive to a quick and
comprehensive development. And each
day only serves to add now testimony to
the cumulative evidence of this great
fact. It is already old of its age , and
high hopes of a grand future for it may
ho well and consistently entertained.
Yet luminous with promise as Ita future
may bo , like a beautiful and fascinating
picture , it has its shadows. Hut these
shadows , albeit , arc not to bo compared
to those of a painting in which they servo
a good purpose without serving at the
same time and to a greater extent , a bad
one. Perhaps the pioneer settlers of this
region ought to bo perfectly contented or
at least much more so than they aro.
They have a railroad , they have fire and
water , a productive soil , a pleasant and
healthful climate , are , to bo sure , in rath
er close proximity to the Sioux Indians ,
but in comfortable nearness to tlio great
and varied mineral deposits of the moun
tains.
To bo contented anywhere the people
Individually and collectively must not
only bo safe , hut they must feel sale , ab
solutely safe against damage or destruc
tion , which is always liable to take place
where any destructive force or agency is
not held in check and kept under proper
restraint and control.
No fears are entertained by tlio pioneer
neer yeomanry of this northwestern
country on account of the lire , and tlio
inagnitudo of the conflagration to which
a. little of it unchecked will occasionally
attain ; nor the water , at times so devas
tating ; nor the Sioux , who doubtless
would , wore they permitted to do as they
please , commit some terrible crimes
upon defenceless settlers , who under dif
ferent circumstances , might fall an easy
prey to the scalping knives of these piti
less savages. Tlio people of this section
have no fear of these things. Tlio
restraints upon them are sulli-
cient. All the agencies and forces
concerned in shaping the destinies
of this favored hind , and that have
the power of contributing to the weal or
woe , to the prosperity , the contentment
and happiness of its people , arc regulated
and held under control of natural or
statute law , except the railroad. Tlio
railroad and the piratical extortions of
its operators are heard on every hand
continuously. Scarcely a person can bo
found among the vast throng of now com
ers hither , except possibly a few dead
heads , who have not in some \yay felt the
application of their galling impudence
and the sting of their extortionate rob
beries. And to listen to the recitals of
the villainous wrongs already committed
against the many suttlers by the Fremont ,
Llkhorn & Missouri Valley railroad com
pany in their seemingly mad march for
money and mammonis enough to stir tlio
fountains of human wrath to the very
bottom.
These facts , and facts they arc , aa any
one who will take the trouble to inquire
will soon convincingly learn , are rapidly
leading tlio public to think that the free
booters of the seas have loft the ancient
wave and taken to the modern rail. That
the bandits of all Christendom are some
how coparceners in the business of rail
roading. They are coming to think that
these who will systematically steal are
no bettor than thieves. That thov have
practically no government except .such
as the railroad companies see lit to give
them , and have no rights that said com
panies are bound to respect. That the
incubus of monopoly ; oppression has
about reached the climax , and that the
so-called popular government is a mock-
cry and a farce.
The creatures of a sovereign people
have become the superiors and the mus
ters of their creator. Instead of being
ruled , they are the rulers. Instead of
giving promise of good influences toward
national harmony and peace , they are
continually giving signs of disturbance ,
discord , war and conquest.
Money is a good thing in the hands of
the good. It is equally a bad tiling In
the hands of the bad. There are 11111113'
ways to got it , included in honest and
dishonest ways. There are ways peculiar
to honest men , and ways peculiar to dis
honest men. Tlio upright business man
has one way as distinguiscd from another
adopted by professional thieves and rob
bers , and tlioir imitators. The latter
would bo perfectly satislicd with their
mode if they could only manipulate the
statute factory to their liking , and
make tlioir Kind of stealing and
robbing lawful. There is room for more
railroads , however , and their case there
fore is not hopeless. It is useless , nay ,
absurd , to deny that of all men who are
seeking the possession of money by
knavish devices those composing the rail
road companies have far outstripped all
competitors in the race. They now own ,
bo3itl.es the roads , the state legislatures ,
the congress , the courts , in short , the entire -
tire machinery of government , legisla
ture , executive and judicial , with rare ex
ceptions. They practically make , execute
and adjudicate. They own the roads and
with passes ingeniously and directly
have , with certain mo.H honorable excep
tions , muzzled the press , or secured its
services. They are now In a position to
bid defiance to till other civil
powers. and with the point of
their thumb resting on the apex 9f
their nasal protnbarnnco , and their
spreading digits wiggling derisively In
the air , exultingly laugh at outward foot
pads and pirates of every color and do-
gnio. They can at least practice upon a
defenseless public with impunity. A him-
plo turn of the master screw ot'oxtortion ,
which is only n slight advance on rates ,
will promptly throw into their CD Dors the
requisite moans for any litigation any
one of their victims might rashly force
upon them , They are : n a conscnuonco
of bolng themselves destitute of honest
principle , and tlio people destitute of of-
lioinnt legal defense , extremely impudent
and overbearing , and lot no opportunity
pass to tilc'h from their subjugated pat
rons , knowing as I hey do that the laws
are substantially worthless for the pur
pose of affording the pcoplo any protec
tion against their unblushing and out-
rngeoiiii robberies.
A poor man or woman cannot nfftml to
incur ( ho expense of u tedious luvvjult
with these powerful companies to re
cover a few dollars of which tlm lattorhas
robbed thorn through their undurhundcd
and well known methods of "Stand ami
deliver. " This fact said companies well
know , and knowing it they are embold
ened to continue their iniquitous robber
ies on a larger scalo. And business men
for fear of projudiciujj their relations
with these tyramcal consolidations are
compelled to sulltiriu silc.nco.
The company's methods have by tlio
oxporloncii of years been brought to n
pretty fair ili-jrroo of perfection and
cftloicney , Duriti , ; these years of trial
they h-ivo full. , 4 uonstraled the feasibil
various schemes expressly devised
for purposes of downright and unalloyed
extortion. A favorite trick , now quite ex
tensively practiced , is to carry goods to
some stationboyoml their destination and
upon returning them to their proper
place charge up for the extra hauling ,
and for storage while the goods wore at
the wrong station , which time. In consequence
quence otthoir whereabouts being un
known to their owner , frequently
amounts to several weeks , more or less ,
and their charge for storage to several
dollars.
This dodge was Inaugurated some
years ago , and has been found by ample
experience to ho an excellent one for
squeezing the public. '
Another one of equal nrolicionoy , and
perhaps more frequently resorted to ,
and in fact it is , judging from the ac
count of shippers , seldom neglected , is
for the agents at stations to which
freight is billed under contract at a
stipulated price , and prcpaiil or other
wise to ignore such contract and de
mand moroorlcssabovetho Raid stipulat
ed price. When this dodge fails to workas
it sometimes does , the company will back
down and abandon the eflort to carry out
the attempted villiany. But something
must bo done to balance the deficiencies
resulting from , mid to maintain unim
paired the dead-head and free pass sys
tems. Mistakes are pardonable , and
when made and discovered by honorable
men they are promptly and cheerfully
rectified. Hut with rogues and robbers
"mistakes" nro never corrected , nnd they
never refund money except by compul
sion.
It is useless for these companies to
claim these systematic attempts at extor
tion are mistakes on tlio part of these
who make them.
In addition to the frequency of the mis
carriages and orchargcs in question is
the fact that they substantially and per
sistently refuse or fall to refund such
overcharges , anil which thov have no
more right to retain than a robber has to
retain tlio money and valuables taken
from his victim on the highway.
From those nnd other signilicant facts
which might bo given , it must plainly
appear that King VnmlorblH's theory ,
"Let the public bo damned , " is being
faithfully anil energetically carried out.
Hut the indirect yotccrlaiu result of it all
is , great and irreparable injury is fre
quently inlliotcd on innocent persons.
In their unprincipled dealings outrageous
extortions. ' knavish overcharges , and
high handed robberies , perpetrated in
discriminately on their patrons without
legal restraint or moral compunc
tion , they unavoidably full in oc
casionally with a customer almost 'as
mean , as corrupt and depraved ,
anil consequently us destitute or man
hood as thonis-elve.s , which customer
wreaks vengeance on his despoilcrs by a
stealthy destruction of tnoir property. A
bridge js burned , : i rail is displaced , or
something of the kind is done to imperil
and destroy the lives and properly of the
traveling public. Such calamities are
often traceable , no doubt , to the guilty
conduct of the raHroad companies them
selves.
Tlio irrepressible conflict now pending
between the pcoplo and the railroad
companies of tun United States is the re
sult of an utterly fcollish , grinding and
intensely hoggish policy of the latter ,
and the aggressive and nefarious methods
resorted to for the carrying out of such
policy.
The people are by no means unfriendly
to railroads. On the contrary , they are
generally willing , ready and anxious to
render all reasonable assistance toward
their construction , and to pay such rates
for the transportation of freight and pas
sengers as will enable their contractors
and operators to realize u fair and equit
able prplit on their investment. 'I hey
recognize and acknowledge not only the
desirability of railroads but their indis-
ponsubility as well. They insist that
there is tin essential and. inavoidablo
inter-relation existing between tlio best ,
interests of the two , and that there should
bo an mineable reciprocity of fooling
based on the principle of "Live and let
live. " Fire , as an element , and railroads
as an agency may bo fitly compared.
Either is capaulc of contributing greatly
to the comfort and happiness of man.
IJoth are necessary to a full measure of
mail's ' comfort and happiness , lint to
attain these ends , proper restraint
and control are requisite. Either
of the two given freedom would
soon became a loarful menace and turn
what might bo a bjessing into a curso.
It is false and vicious logic to argue
that because the people want railroad
companies put under proper legal restric
tions that they are therefore the intrinsic
enemy of such companies.
To show that there exists good reasons
for such restrictions it may bo well to in
stance a few cases , out of many , as sam
ples of extortion and robbery already
committed by the F. 12. & M. V. U. It. Co.
against justice and the rights of the set-
tiers in this newly settled section as fol
lows :
Some goods , mostly household , wore
only .shipped from Valentine to Kushvillo
about the 10th of last July. The owners ,
being three separate parlies , to whom
they were receipted and consigiiodlooked
daily for their arrival hero. Failing to ar
rive in reasonable time the agent at
this place explained that as a largo
amount of freight had accumulated tit the
goods would not probably bo forwarded
tor some dnys. Accepting this explana
tion as true , the owners patiently awaited
the coming of their goods. On or about
the 15th of August information was conveyed -
voyod to the owners of said goods that the
same wore at Hay Springs , the first sta
tion west and beyond Hiishvillo , their
destination , whore they had been since
tlio time when they were first expected to
arrive at Huchvillo , They wore.accord .
ingly shipped back to 11. and extra
charges for taking them to liny Springs
and back and lor Moraga while there ,
which to each shipper amounted to sev
eral dollars , was danmiuled , and an inso
lent threat was made by the dudlsh agent
that unless it was paid they ( the goods )
would bo sent back to Hay Springs.
A controversy nroso regarding tlio in-
instico of demanding * extra charges.
finally upon the understanding that they
would bo refunded in accordance witn
the customary rules of the ollico , they
wore paid and the. goods wore removed
from the station the same day. No al
lowance was made for the loss of homo
of said goods on which freight had to bo
paid. Although a bill of damages was
properly handed inneither the goods nor
the pay for them has up to this date been
received ,
Now , If taking these goods to Hay
Springs was a "mistake" and collecting
extra freight and storage was a "mis
take , " lotus see how the mutter of the
company's rectifying their "mistakes"
fatnmls at the present timo.
Since the 17th day of August , when the
freight and storage was paid as related ,
and thit goods removed from the depot at
Itubhville , no less than bcvou Jotters have
been written by the soveiul victims of
this robbery to the company's agents ,
both local and gonural , whose Imsincas it
Is to attend to Mich matters , The * > o let
ters minutely explained the nature and
extent of the grievance under considera
tion. The general freight agent at Mis
souri Valley went far enough to secure
about the 25th uf October the expense
bills from the various injured parties ,
winch constituted tholr written evidence
of having paid the unjust and extorted
freight ana storage charges , and Having
done that much lie rusted quietly till the
Jth of ihinutiry , ' 80 , when , in answer to
another latter culling bib. attention again
to this subjiict , ho denied having over
received any ccmimniiontiou in regard
to. this matter ,
The company yet has the few dollars
thus wrung from ittf patroils money It
had no r'ght to take awl .which u lias no
more right to retain than rt thief has to
his plunder.
In another case a few goods were
shipped from It point in Indiana , on
whieh the fremit was fully prepaid to
Kushville , IjjSbj , nnd a receipt taken by
tlio shipper (6 tAat effect. Upon the con
signee's rccnivipg said goods hero an
additional charge of one dollar and n
considerable4 ! flfictiou was demanded ,
and to avoid trouble ' and delay it was
paid.
One hundred and ninolv-soven dollars
and $ - ? Lswhnt
forty equti ( $107-IO-rclght )
it cost a business firm hero on one car
load of fcnco'wirc ' from Sioux City , Iowa ,
to this point. This Is a specimen of their
magnanimity and kindness toward the
farmers , and alto suggests to the business
man that ho must , whether- wants to
or not , go slow.
In view of these facts it is not dlflicult
to understand why the company are anx
ious to have the country , not only along
that portion of their road now in opera
tion , but far In advance of its construc
tion , rapidly and thickly settled ; and to
nay for liberally advertising "Free
Homes" they need money ! Their merci
less ercod apparently has no bounds , and
everything they can do to filch money
from the impecunious and hard working
ploiioers is done with a grim satisfaction
paralleled only by that oT pirates.
