BAXN Dixgo, Cal., Jan, 18,—Belleving that Tns TRIMUNE {s willing to publish arguments which may be falrly presented upon anyof the current {mportant questions bofore the people, I respect. Tally ask space to present a few facts and argu- monts in connection with the rallroad question, which has hecome ona of ihie most tinportant—1f not the mostimportant—qnestions now acitating he American people. . Rapld and cheap trans- portation Is the foundation of civilizationt and thlé ratltosad question ts one of paramoant inter- eat to the people of this Cosst, for they are now bound hand and foot Ly ralirond-monopoly which was estahlished and Is malntatned by the Uenernl Government, nud which has become the supreme power in this Statc, absolutely con- troiling fts politics, dictating fvs laws, governing its commerca and all* Its industries, und men- aciog its prosperity,—aye, moro than menacing it, for It Is assuming the character of A NLIGHT ON THE LAND. L You may think the above declaration fsa strong—perhaps {ntemperate~statement of the case; but {t1s literslly and exactly truc, as the beonle of California know to their sorrow. In order to present the arguments 1 deatre, allow me to recite certaln facts In connection with the transcontineatal road that are familiar to men who have given any degreo of attentfon to tho subject, but which,are perbaps not known to a large number of your readers, or, {f known, not duly considered. A Committee appolated by the Forty-tecond Congress to examine Into aod report the actual cost of the cunstriction of thie Ualon and Central Paclfic Raflroads report- ed as follows? 1.

A portion ot the drippingsof the immenso revenues enjoyed by the Central Pacific man- ngers has plled up In tho shape of palatial pri- vate resldences. The great bulk has been, anid is being, used in buying and bullding other ronds, and {n absorblne all steamship-lincs com- ing to thia Coast.

When tho Central Pazific wore bullding their Southern Branch towards Arlzons, they proposed to that clty to deflcct the sald brauch nnd bring It to the city, and bulld from there to S8an Bervardino, and also build a road to Avahelm,—thus con- necting Los Angeles with San Francisco aud the adjoining towns,~provided Los Angeles would ‘make them a prescut of thelr road lead- log to the sea. The balt was tsken, and soon Los, Augeles found ft was l.'omrlnkl!‘ 8t tha mercy of the Central Pacific, which communded every avenue leading to the' city, and collected griavous tolls, iy A genticman ownlng a Jarge tract of luund on 1he sea-coast, sixtecn mlles frum Loa An¥n|el, bullt & railroad to that ¢luy, and sturted a town, Heo realized & large sum from the salo of lots in the vew town, wharf was built, st which for & short thne the tnast-steamers Janded frelglit and pasacngers for Los Angeles; and Los Auxulnv.-- was jubllaut, But tlie proprictor of the new euterprise soon me, {n some un- accountable manuer, ;uvnlvcd. and his rosd foll into the clutchiea of the Central Pacitic, aud 18 PUACTIOALLY ABANDONED, and the now town has dried up, Then a gentleman doing bnalness In Los Anwcles bought & small steamer, which lunded frelght, by means of lighters, at a puint on the coast, and which was conyeyed theneo to Los Avgeles und San Bernardine by wagous, But thy werchants who patronized this enterprise wero, I the uature of the situathun, oftan dependent upen the ratiroad; wnd they were informed by the rallroad-oflicials that tliey conld ncither re- celve nor sbip frelght Ly rall uuless paviug duuble charges, 80 foug as they reccived any gooda by sald steaner und wagon loe, The en- terprise was ulumlouudI and the steamer ts now uwaed by the Central Pacitie.

Presently oppartunity offered to dispose of thelr stock at & tair fizure, Lhough at sotnethivg of a loss, wi they let fLslip.
