I do not propose to auswer or criticise that articl, 0s.Xama young farmer, and took my schooling 8t tho plow-bandle, and in the barn and food- Jot ; but would simply bog a hearing on one or two points : Tirst, . discrimination.” Tho articlo saya it is vory uufair to charge tho man that rides twico o day a8 much as tho man that rides onco a year. Now, I hold that all mon (s Jofforson snys) sro created ogual and with cortain inalionablo rights, and, if & man's busi- noss loads bim on tho ears bwico n day, ho must bave o profitablo business, or ho wonld not. do businoes in that way. Aund, as for tho man that ridon onco in a grert whilo, I am he. I can tfoll you all about bim. In thoe firat place, ho has married & wifo, and hiss bought & farm of tho railrosd company, and sgroed to poy 920 por aera and intoreat at 10 por cont, Mo gaos to work, and keopa ot it almost pight snd day. Ifho wants to buy any nocos- suries, ho must go nll tho way to Mattaon, 8 miles distant, or buy at home (3ilton), and pry 60 s':ur contmore, Why ? Bocrueo it costs about 20 por car torun it wp to Milton. And it conts com $10 to $15 maro por eat trom trom Olicago to Milton than to Mattoon, some 8 miles south ; and it oosts us 45 conts to go to Mattoon on tho cars, Now, you soe, thoman that wants to keop Tis hesd above wator and pay for bis land cou- not afford to indulge in _such luxurios as buying 2t homo and iding on tho cara. 1 is also said that it won't do not fo *discrim- inato in froight ab compoting points.” Porhaps not, but it roally sooms to me that the Illinols Coutral Railrond would got more freight and aoro monoy if they would discriminafo lons. TTo provo this, wo will tako Mattoon as o sample, whero the Terre Haute, Alton & Bt. Louls Rail- rond crosses. Now, for the lsst aightoon yors, all tho ‘Whost, and boge hove beon lawled or drivon thero for 156 miles in ol dircotiona from Mattoon. Thero oro hundreds of bushels of corn that go to Mat- toon that havo boon hauled xlghf. past two rail~ yond stations on the Iflinois Contral Riailrond. And I gay, and can prove, thattherosro hmndreds of thonsauds of bushels of corn that go Baat from Mattoon, that would go diract from Milton and Arcoln fo Chigago {f thoy could even gob within B cents per bushol. tho “market prico in Mattoon, Honco you seo that, if thoroisnota chango somo way s00n, tho railrond will wipo out Dy far tho most necessary class of mon,—tho producora of cattlo, hogd, and corn,—for thoy novor can raise corn ot 10 fo 20 conts, and novor will submit, without n strugglo, to giva 60 cénts por bushol'to_any corporation to doliver tholy corn at New York, Thatis just what it costs at tho- prosont high rates.
