THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH. . The Misrepresentations of the Western Union Monopoly—Comparison of Ta- riffs im Enrope and America, | LonvoN, Apri! 16, 1870, / Persons familiar with the historyof the telegraph business in Europe and America were surprised to find in the London journals.a few weeks ago a brief @able announcement to the effect that Mr, William Qiton, the President of the Western Union (United States) Telegraph Company, had asserted before a committee of Congress that the tariff on telegrapuic : me sazes was higher m Europe, un ler the govern. mcn: system, than in the United States, under pri- : vale management. The statement atiributed to Mr. @rton was so absurdly erroneous that the re- port was discredited unti the American mail Drought over @ confirmation of 18 correct- Res. The attempt to misiead Congress by £0 #ross a misrepresentation could only bave been Prompted by a determination to resist by every means, legitimate or iliegitimate, the effort to de- stroy a dangérous monopoly, and to extend to the People of the United States the benefits of a govern- Ment postal telegraph. Of cour-e tt 1s impossible to attribute Mr. Orton’s singular statement to ignorance or the subj_ct to which it ieierred; and heuce when Congress learns tat it has no f-undat on whitever m fact—tiat it is, indeed, ths most exiravugant per- version of trath—it will bettcr understand the des- perale stait to wo the advocates of monopoly are driven to dud argwacn's with which to bois.er wy the case Of privale imtercets agamst the public goo). The untform cbject of a] governments in the mManazewent of the telegraph bas been wo reduce the cost of te egraphing to the public to the lowest self- supporting rate and to bring the fact itis for ising the Wres a8 near as prs ible to every man’s door. In every European § aie tue goveroment tele:raph is Low eelf-suppoiting, and in many it hasaraly Decome @ divect source of revenue, and yer there is neta single Instance on record whe.e the tori has Rot deen materially retuced under the government syste. A few comparisons will show that, so lar from the statement of Mr. Orton being true, the tarifs all over Europe are from one-fifth to one- te th of the tavitts chore! in America.
