The Political Connectton of IInile ronds with the Government—3 Lec« ture by Charles Francis Adanainy Ire Boston Advertiser, Feb. 27, Tho twolfth and last lecture of Charles Francis Adams, Jr.'a coures on“ Nailronda,” was deliv- erod inthe Lowell Inatituto last oveuing, the special subject being “Sho Political Copnection of Railroads with tho Governmout.” Ife pre- facod bis lecture with a fow words in which ho expressed bis surpriso and ploasuro that so many had been intercsted in the course, and thon began by asking what this railroad problem ia, about which so much has been said. As bo understood it, It was thia: Within tho present ceutury tho increneo of knowledge, tha discovor- {es of science, tho intiicacies of civ- filzation, bad = thiown the conyvonionces weceanary for pubho life into athe bands of private judividusls and combina tions, and the question was, how to. bring thom into practical subjugation to law. olf the States of the Uniou had made thoir statute books ridicntous by provisions to nravent tho combina- tion of compotiug railrosd lines, No reliable agency through which to regulate their opora- tions could be found in the direction of competi- tlon, The stronger corporation would in ovory caso finally absorb the woaker, or both wonld combine, Compotition was thorofora the form through which consolidation and combination worked itsolf out. In tho first place competition. Jed to discriminative, non-compating | points being obligod to pay the cost incurred in benoflt- ing thoso points which enjoyed compotition ; it did not lead to that equality and averaga cvon- ness of price, but to inequality botwoon the lo- calitiee which wero served. Competition was simply a plisso of evolution, ‘The difference bo- tweon competition which was open to all the world and which was ‘botwoen two monopolics was wide. Ilow long it would tako to perfect a syatom which would bring sll the railroads of the country intos combined and well-organized monopaly was not for him to say, but na man who studied tho history of tho past fow yeara could fail to sco that such a result was alcaply a question of time, As ho looked at tho problom it became a mero matter of forecasting the fu- taro from a study of the past. ‘I'he railroad sys- tem had beon and tas now passing through a rogular process of evolution. ‘Mankind posseusod but four syptoms of rbgu- lating railroads, Tuoy might be loft in tho hands of corporations, independent of Govern- mont control, standing on much tho same fuot- ing as cotton mills or iron factories ; they might bo subject to the operation of cortain !aws, through which thoir charges and ratcs may bo more or less limited. Whilo remaining in the control of private parties they might bo subject to Government eopervisiou, and fually they might wholly or in part bo owned and operated by the State. ‘fo ontnral Jawa of supply and demand would not regulate railroads. If this mattor of trausportation wsa by expor- once found to bo one over which it was neces- sary or inovitablo that tho Government should oxerciso a certain dogree of control, wo shonld recognize it as such, and accoptit. If the Gov- ornment was obliged to oxteud its control over railcoada to on oxtent which disturbed the po- litical syatom under which wo wore brought up, and iu which, wo beliovo, it was none tho lors.a portion of tho inovitable, it was vory clear that that rastroad system which lad changed and revolutionized tho wholo world would not turo aside simply because it had como to conflict with tho political institutions pf the United Btates, Ie was absurd to suppose thxt 8 force Hike this which affected and changed the whole ational thought sud action would leave tho political sya- tem untouched. Wo lad indications that wo wore overloading tho framowork of our Goy- ernment by continually forclng new functions unonit, and if it waa foundesssntial to force upon the already overloaded system of our simple ro- publican goveramont a closer rolation with this complex railroad system, ho, for one, did not seo whero the political’ revolution that wo wore on- toring upon would ond. He was persnaded that no mun could stand in the way of a locomotive, and that it was almply for ua to atudy thous quee- tions as boat we could, and, having studied them, to proceed to adapt our political institutions to cle material system which wae strongor than ay» ‘The lecturer spoke of the conclusion arrived at bya commities of tho English Parliamont, after s thorough investigation into the ratiroad qisstions of that country, saying it was just, what, as wiso utatoamon, thoy must Lava deter- mincd-—that thoy could not moct tho isso, Ho thon procecded to describo the system undor which our railroads in Blassachusctta are reguiated, which, ho said,” he believed was practically the most offectiyo system which has boo devised. It was simply this, Our logislators practically said: '* Hore aro thoso large monopolics. Wo recognizo perfoctly that they aro not subject to natural laws of supply and demand ; we recognize that competition is broken down ag # rogulating force; wo aro not prepared to say, at ali, that the time has yet coma, or that the time ever will como, when tho State should assumo tho functions of a railroad corporation; wo sro disposod to leave wolt enough alone, 60 long av it is woil enough ; wo recognize tho fact that our railroad syatem do- pends on the power of public opiuion, which js always tho strongest safeguard of any people; all wo propose to do, at presont, ia to organiza an effective machinery through which public opinion can essily make itsclf felt.” © Tha wholo forco of the Legislature is hold iu abeyanco, said tho; lecturer. It msy bs called into use’ at auy times, meanwhile, when not needed, it slumbers, The Comnmiesionors Lie likenod toa sort of lens, in which the rays of tho publio were concentrated and brought to bear upon any railrond, ‘Tho moro railroads that wero consolidated, the easior would it bo to fix responsibility. He did not think the public realized how sensitive railroads ere to pubtio opinion when it was fairly aroused, They would proceed in 8 policy up to a certain point, but, whon thoy folt thatthe pubic was aroused, itonly required that the grieyancea should bo carofully formulated and expreasod to havo it dienppes, He spoke ropely agalnat tho uso of tho force of arbitrary enactnionts, and recommended that the Massachuuetts principlo be adopted ia the Granger States, ‘The timo was comiug wheu tho 1 prose dopartmont of railroads muat be recognized aa « department of the Gov- ernment.

Johneon, Esq, « Tho uret lecturo in the second serios of the Lakeside course waa dolivercd last evening to a largo and attontive audionce at Farwoll Hall, by J. A, Johnson, editor of the Santa Darbara Press, The subjoot was ‘ Southorn California,” iNustratod with 150 stereopticon views, which conveyad to the andicuce a vivid idea of the por- foctions and grandours which Nature las pro- duced in that (talian section of tho continont; ond the fow well-choson words of explanation completed the delightful impression, which ap- proachea most nearly to that which the traveler rocoives, and which the loyer ot the beautiful is impationt to enjoy. By way of introduction the Iectnrer said it gave Lim pecullar pleasure to address a Chicago audionco, from the fact that he was born in Iinols, and considered himsolf among tho ploncors iu Chicago, Ho bad lived at Saute Barbara for four yoara, aud the coldest weather experienced wae 40 to 41 dogrees, which le found to be in beantiful contrast with tho wevere snow storm and cold weather felt in Chicago. He hoped to bo nblo to open up the spring. in advanoe during the evening to his hearers, but, being unwoll, ha woutd roly prinel- pally upon the iilustrations which would be shown in ® 2,000-mile trip on, canvass, laid out for the evening, among the orange-groves of Lia m0, ‘Tho first scone Lo would present would be @ map of the United Btates, which would better lo- cate the section of country about which ho was to apeak in tho hearors’ ln and oye, and, in so doing,,pe did not want to be understoad ax pre~ suming to teach the people geography or at- ‘fhe epeaker thon apologized for the absence of an agwigant to baudle the various viuws, and took position at the instrument which had been placed in the contre of the hall, The first viow thrown upon the screen was that of arailway train passing round Cape Hom" on the Contral Pacific Hallroad, 180 milos eastward from Sau Francisco, about ball way routes, wore alluded to and the prices by the dif- ferent routes given. The exhibition of stereo- scopic view, waa resumed when one of the har- bors of Kan Francisco and the Seal Iocks” ‘was prenented. Tho two seala, which are fainil- jar ta San Franciecana aa Geo. Grant and Gon, Butler, ‘appoared in tha picture, the une quletly surveying the altuation. though not smoking, and the other barking loudly for recognition, ‘Then came A fighire of the Innd-tocked harbor of San Luis Obirpo, which ia incladod {n the county whose representatives were formerly sald to represent tho cows rather than tho inbabitants. In another econo arco quantitica of grain wore stored ju the open air, and the lecturer took occasion to remark ou tho strict obsorvation of the ownership of property in that locality, in which particular he thought tho people far in advance of thoxo who live ju the East, where he had beon unable to maintain the proprietorship of an umbrolta, though ho took some cure to do so. Another view of tho county seat represented the Court-lfouse, tho old Mission grounds, ond the celebrated fig-trees of Hau Tatis Obiapo, which are tho largest on this Continont. Another scene of a place 15 miles istant, reprosented an old miavion ontport whero the Indiana wero gathered by tho old Bpanish fathers of the Catholic and taught thar roligion. It was built tocivilize the Indians, and tho lecturer boliaved that they had Loen 20 entiroly succeesful that the two ropresonted tn the viow wero the only ones loft, Among uther buildings shown waa thatof the Hon. 3", W. Murphy. their Representative inthe Legislature. it was an old-fashioned Spanish residouce, built of adobo,@ sort of unburnt brick, 20 iuches long, 18 juches wide, and 6 iuchea thick—uncumfort- ably largo tocarryin one'ahat, It ts covered with tiles about 18 inches thick, sud affords a most comfortable place of residence in the climate which prevails. Boveral. mountain stroamna And cascades were given for the benoit of those who had a taste for trout fishing, and thea the audience wan invited to take a ride acrova the Steele Rancho, which in owned by two brothors, Tho ride was aupposed to occupy allday, aud the tarin was bouxbt by tho proaent owners for a bit (1217 cents) per acre. ‘Tho Mevsra. Hteele aro now the great dairymea of California, manufacturing the premiutn butter aud cheese for that market. ‘Thelr choexe product last year wan something moro than 100,000 tuns, aud thelr butter product more than 10,000 tons. On this same farn wan @ barley field woick had yielded fonr voluntary crops ‘at the rato of sevonty-five sacks of 10 portnds onch to the acre. A view of another mis- sion wae introduced, which has been more suc- ceraful than the inatitution just mentioned, not one Indian remaining uncivilized. Several beantifal views of mountain passes wero in- trodticod, and other reprosentations were piven of views on tho Ludward Rancho, where the tobacco. plant ia ralned succeesfully, whore the Anetralisn Lue gum treo grows as a hedge to the height of 20 feat in fifteen montha, and where almond treca flourish luxuriautly, On this samo farm are what aro called tho Ca- thedral Oaks, which cucircle a spaca of 1,000 feet, and form one of the most beautiful arcades that can boitmagined. Approaching nearer to Sauta Barbara, tho Isat placo of oucampment un- derncath an ook that cast a shadow of 120 foet was represonted, and then followed views of tho farm of Col. Hollister, who in to be the next Governor of Calffornia. Theso views ropreeent- ed an almond orchard of 6,000 treex, and speci- mona of the yellow acacia treo, which is now grown for wood. ‘Iho almond trees the third year bear a * cro which pays all the expenses of planting, grafting, and caro, and when 6 years old bear s product worth not fess than 3250 per sacra above expensos. Next was presouted # view of the asphalt beds owned by Mr, Tuomas W. Moore, which were bought fora “bit” an acre, and offered material onough to make the pavement of all the streots of the country for a long time, ‘The next sories of views wero taken from Sants Barbara, and represented a Banta Barbara fog, # very light hazy mist, the old Mission, whicn is now used for 8 schoo! for boys, by au old Fran- cisean friar, Sante Barbara Collego, which was christened with a divorco suit, a viow of State strect, tho Morris Houso, the /reas office, tho Occidental Hotel, sketch of the beach, and other places, Perhaps the most interesting view the collection waa a reprosentation of the large grapovino of Santa Barbara, with the ludy ownor sitting beneath it, The vine is undondt~ edly tho largost in tho world; it ix a foot in diameter at the foot, covers = space of about 120 feet, and produces on an average 6,000 pounds of grapes annually, ‘Tho beach which an been mentioned affonis a drivo of 12 miles, has s gradual doctine, and possossea all the qualitiea necossary for eoaeide pleasures. In connection with an explanation of the climato, which is most fayaiaolo to porsons unablo to bear tho rigors af Nosthero temperatures, views wero introduced of the mineral and hot springs, which afford an say cure for rheumatism, dys- pepsia, and kindrod complaints, Views wore also rows of Sau enaventura, 23 miles down the coast from Santa Barbara; of Mr, Chilsou's almond orebard, and acenery in tha Ojal Valley, and of the Rauta Cloia Valley, over all of which tho audienco wero inclined to linger. ‘Tho Inat ueenes repreaonted wore placed in Los Angeles, and included the delightful Orange avenue, half a mile long. During the lecture and entertainment ths apexker was frequently interrnpted mith quea- tious as to the resources of Southern California, to which he paused to give answers, in which bo displayeda thorough knowledgo of tho cutire country, from the miniature blade of grace to tho manuive “ cathedral grovo” of oaks. tAt tho conclneion the Speaker was further prees- ed for information that hig Wusttations aud toc- ture had failed to impart, and when he left tho halt, it was with the impression that Santa Bar- bara would soon acquire some of the present revidouts of tha Garden City. —_—— Hew @ Cat Won a Wager.
