Philanthropist Gould. } telegraphic consolidation, according to | Mr. Jay Gould, is Intended solely for tue pabile benefit. Heassures the country, through an | Interview published tthe World, that “the | object of the consolidation was to carry out a | Jong-cherished plan for developing tn the Uni- ted States an efictent system of cheap tele- graphy, on a great scale, both by sea and by land.” The benevolent gentlemon, Messrs. Gould, Vanderbilt and others of that tik, who | have for so longa time devoted thetr lives to this “cherished plan," aszertalned by expe- rience that they could not attaln success with their ability and their labors divided; they had | to unite thefr means and thelr efforts in order toconfer upon the people the great booa of | Cheap telegraphy. That is the motive that brought about the consiida'ion, says Bene | factor Gould. He and his distnterested as3o- lates have taken no thought of the sordid question of profit. They are not ylven to that sort of practice. If the people of this country depend upon the Gould-Vanderdtit combination for cheap telegraphy they will have to walt for the millennium to get !t, and they will not get {then tf “corners” and combinations are per- mitted. —— ane ‘The Telegraph Monopoly. . The pudiie mind seems to be coming to the conclusion that the government Is the only power strong enough to free this country from the grasp of the telegraph monopoly iately | formed by a combination of all the principal | companies tn the land. This combination con- trols nearly all the wires tn the country and all the b's inventions for improved and rapid tel- | egraphy. Opposition created and owned by | Private enterprise has fatled to secure any per- | manent benefit to the people, for the reason. that the sole object of the organizers of such opposition—to make money—has been most easily achieved by either selling out to or com- | pining with tbe Western Union company. The | People no longer have any confidence ta the abliity of competing lines bullt up by pri- vate capital to resist the tempting offers of the monopoly, and he with almost one accord, they turn to th government for rellet. The short-lived competition created by the Atlantic and Pacific, and subsequently by the American Unton, de- | Taonstrated the fact that rates are much lower | when two lines exist than when one company | monopolives telegraph facilities. It 1s justas | natural for monopolies to exact higa prices as | for water to run down hill, and nobody is tnno- cent enough to belleve that the Western Union | issincere in Its pretence that it has swallowed | up Opposing lines mainly to cut down its ex- | Penses that it may reduce telegraph tolls. In | the progress of construction of the American | Union nes, wherever and whenever it reached | & point enabling It tocompete with the Western | Caton, rates from and to that potnt were imme- diately reduced, but, as a rule, at non-compet- | ing points V ern Union rates were increased | to compensate the company for the enforced reduction elsewhere. The well-authenticated Saying that competition 1s the life of trade ap- piles withas mueh force to telegraphic commu- nication as to any other kind of bust- ness. But tt 13 equally true that there | are two sides to the question of estab- Mshipg a government system of telegraph, It Would very largely Increase the already exten- sive government patronage by adding a depart- ment that could, under shrewd ¢ made to exert powerful political! : end to tne in this body couid a‘ford to set up c the government.

Tis bill provides for a board of appraisers, two to be appointed by the govern- ment, two by the telegraph corporation and these four to select a tifth, whose duty it shall be to examine Into the affairs of the existiog telegraph corporation and ascertain the cash ¥alue of ts wires and other property. This board Is to have power to send for persons and | Papers, and to examine persons who can give information in regard to the value of the tele- raph property, cost of erecting and repatring wires and of operating the same, under oath. The President ts required to request from gov- ernments operating lines of postal tetegraphy full information as to the cost, the benefits and disadvantages and such other facts as would be In alding this government to determine the best poilcy for tt to adopt. It ts contem-< plated to have ail this information ready to Submit to Congress at th? next sesslon, when that body may act with all the lights attainable before it. Under the act of Congress of 1566 to ald tn the construction of telegraph Ines, etc., telegraph companies are compelled to sell thelr Property to the government at the appraised ¥aiue, whenever the government may deter- mine to purchase and enter upon the postal seearaoh system. Therefore, no obstacle to Such a purchase amd transfer of the property can artse, but the government can have the Option of buying existing lnes or of erecting new ones, as Congress might see fit to direc However, a3 the construction of lines by the government would so depreciate the value of existing Ines a3 to make It but poor property, | bee: competitio: ane & postal telegraph ald not live, the ament has the > from ever, point. ness people on the sout Vennsyivanla avenue are beginning to enquire why the great piles of snow are allowed to re- main On that side of the street when the north | Side has been so thoroughly cleaned.
