Few organs of the monop olies are bold enough to day to ques tion the power of the people to pass laws upon the subject of railway discriminatisn ~ snd extortlon.

The injury, from a jus tortion and _discrimination by the enectment of wuch laws as are neces- sary for this purpose. With argn- ‘ments upoh this point, then, our legis- lators have nothing ‘whatever 1o dcy “Phe clear, distinct and adequate dec laration of the constitution takes the matter entirely out of - their hands and precludes the possibility of any dispute upon the question within the confines of our state. Tho only, question, then, whith ad- mite of suy debate whatsoever is thi of the method of applying the cons tatlonal provision to the rallway cor- poratlons In Nebr: Ace the roads charging extortionate rates? Ate dis- criminations practised upon cur pro- ducers? Ts the avowedly selfish policy of self aggrandisemont pureved by the rallroad managers in Nebraska contre Ty to the best interests of the public st large? s the eystem of rebates and drawbacke grauted to favored individ- unls subversive of general commer elal prosperity and does such a system tend to the building up of the fortuncs of therailway henchmen at the ex- pense of the community at large! Are there minor mozopolles, rings within tings, 5nd and coal companies, grain elevator syndicates—fostered by the monopolies within their corporate ex- istence or condacted in connection with the companies, whose operation tends to concentrate the business of the atate and place it uader the con trol f common carriers! These are & few of the qasstions which mast be snswered by an emphatic negative before the imperative necessity of laws governiog and regulating the raflroads can be denled by the oor- poratlon mansgers. That the people of Nebraska were convinced that fl grant abuses existed in the railroad managements of this state is mani- fest frem the provision which they in- corporated into the constitution of 1870, commanding the legislatare to deal with the railroad question and ordering it to pss laws against discrimination andextortions The last teu years have brought no cessation of the eharges made by the producers of this state agalnst the' railroad man- agers. Protests and memorials havo ponred into-the-legisletures. from every portion of the state reciting a Toag list of enormities practiced upon Nebraska producers by the monopo- lies. These charges have been made openlyand have been confined to no one line. At no time have thay been more numerous than during the past year uantil at the present time the de mand for legislative relief has taken the form of a general up-rising of the people, and an almost unanic wmous demand for the redress of thelr grievances The very unanimity of this movement is proof enough of the truth of the charges against the rail- roads, and its force cannot be broken down by the simple denisls of the monapoly managers, however plaus- ible. This being the case, no argu- mant can be sdduced strong enongh 10 weigh sgainst such a mass ot proofs Tneimperative command of our consti- tution 1s enforeed by the usited de- mand of Nebravka's toilers and wealth- producers. The daty of (le legislatare admits of no question. Laws should and wmust at ouce be paséed prohiblting discrimination and extortion on the partof the co:porate motiopolies within our state. If this legislature fails in its duty snother will be found which willgo to etill Fugther extremes and carry out to the very letter, the mandate of the consti- tation.

They have known what theéy waned, have employed the beat falent for promoting their objects, and_haye been active and persistent onder the spur of selt-in- ‘tereat, while the people have failed to realize how their rights were liable to be encronched upon. Tho people have chosen their representatives in legislative bodies with little or no re gard to their action upon measures affecting the oxerciso of corporate franchises, and have left them to act according to_their own discration, while the holders of these franchisos have been vigilant to secure repre- seuta ives of their own inleresta and to sea that they were faithful to them. While the great railroad and tele- graph systems of the count:y were growing up there was a gencral and well-founded conviction in the com- munity of their value and importance in promoting the development of in- dustrial interssts. There wes a dis- position to favor them. Not ouly wero franchises of great valuo freely destowed nupon them, but state and aation lent. their oredit to them and gave thom subsidies in money and fands; towns and countles burdened themselves with debt to help them along, and whatever privileges they desired were allowed on the plea of pablic benefit. When they began t combine and consolidate it was ac- fivished by March lst. A rich strike of ore has been made on North Fork, Custer county. The vein is five feet wide. The Hills are dissppointed over the failure of the territcrial division to pase the legislature. The McMaken mica mining compa- ny has struck anotber valuable deposit o wmica near Guster Ciry. Free gold ore has been encountered in the Badger mine shaft, five or six foet under the cement. Whitewood creek at Deadwood has been flooding Sherman straet and doing consideratle damage to proper- ty. The 1adies «f Deadwood are getting upa geand fair to be held for the benefit of the Deadwood fire depart- ment. The cattle in_the Black Hills are reported to be doing finely, notwith- standing the cold weather and heivy snows. Hay is eelling st $25 perton in Deadwood, andgs is believed itwill ron up to £90 before the winter is over. Eight freight outfits for Custer are between Buffalo Gap and Red Clond in the deep snow,and their stock either lost or played out. The telephoue wires are being strung around town at Lead, and in a ay or two the exchange will be in working order. There has been more snow this winter than ever known before in the Cheyenne river country, south and east of the Hills. Twelve mules were stolen from the Fort Meade government stables last Wednesday. Ten of them were found the next day in Desdwood. Toe Washington mine in the Cus- t r distriet is making some fine devel- opments and the ore body Is daily growing larger and richer.

The people of Nebraska sre now faa fair way of getting & now deal, and surely they desire it. The people are jubilant, and well may they be. or ance we cn say with some degreo afety that Nebraska's tyranical with his army of bamaming strikers; with his money and position, has been beaten v open battle, We believe that the peoplo have gained a point and hold the cards for 8 new dai; but watch the game closely; relax not your dilligence lest the slick fingered enemy “stock” the cards. Monay, pawer, promise, thrests and entroaties could not save Paddock, Nanse, o even Post, but be ever on the alert for “tricks that are valn,” for the will is still in them to serve Yheir master. The people are a pow- er, once arrayed in a determined war- fare cannot be cajoled by one or per suaded by the other.

New York Times Tac eventa of the past week have scrsed, to impress upon the public mind the great power of corporations heldil ranchisce from the state and the utter inadequacy «f exlsting laws fr the protection cf the rights and interasts of the people The supreme court and the attorney-general ¢f the state have plafoly intimated that the consolidation of the rival telegraph companies, and the cstablishment of a monopoly In & business upon _which the people are almost as dependrnt as upon the operations of tho postal de- partment of the government, was op- posed o the public intecest, and that theg would gladly find legal ground ‘wpon which it, could te re t=incdy Bat they weré poworless to find a semody, because the laws had been ftamed in the interast of *he corpora- tions rather (han that of the public. The fact le_that legislacion berring upon the relations of railroad and telograph companies to the people who have t deal with them has been shaped mainly by the sgents of the compaules themselves, with & view to cepted a1 » movement in faver of efficiency snd economy of manage- ment and service, giving great through lines and uniformity of policy. Much that was anticipated as am tter of public bencfit was really 50, but along with the unrestrained op- portuaities allowed for growth and ex- pansion came watering of stock, com- binations for the throttling of compe- tition and the development of the gi- gantic power of railroed and telegraph magnates, who were ablo to tax the community upon its entire business almost at will. The tendency to mo. nopoly and coussquent_rapacity was not foreseen and provid:d against Safeguards that might easily have bee raisod for the proteation of the public wero noglected until the power to bo restrainad aud held undet control had become well-nigh_uncontrollable. It not only had the public at its meray. but It domitigted legislatures, shaped the oharacter of statutes, and left even Senator Dawes Severely Handled by Secretary Schurz. An Avalanche of Cutting Sar- casm, Special dispatch to The Bee. ‘WASHINGTON, Febroary 9 —10p. m. —Secretary Schurz has “addressed aa opea letter to Senator Dawes in regly to a speech recently delivered by that gentleman in the senate, n which be reflected on the condact of the inter- for department in connection with the Poncas. The letter is very sarcastic o tone, and in 1t the secretary quotes from that portion of Senator Dawes apecch in which he stated that he had complained of the wrongs of the Pon- cas to the head of the department, entreating him to endeavor to redress thom. In reply to this Secretary Schurz says: “‘T have made inquiry into this subject and have been ia— formed there is no maa in tho interior department to-day, who can romem- ber you ever to have spoken to fhim wpon this matter, excapt in queations asked in proceed. ings of the committee on_ luvestiga- tion and as to myself, I wish you to understand me clearly, whatever | speeches you may have made else- where, you never approached me por. sonally on this subject, either by way of entreaty or otberwise. The sub ject of all your entreaties in the In dian department is recorded in a dozen or two of applications tor ¢ ffice, urged by you and filed with your name during that period, of your uew-born anguish about the red man. 1 do not ‘mean to blame you for retailing places and favors in this department or olse where, but when you have come for that only, then you must net tell mo and the public that you come. with implorations for the poor Poncas, aud that I coldly received your appeals.” In roply to Dawes’ remarks that the recent methods of treating the Indjana-is un-America, Schurz says: ore never was an Indian unjustly kilf#ilig this coun‘ry wntil a German- born American citizen became secre- courts of equity without power to pro- tect the interests of the poople. One of the worst results of past negleot has boen to give the corpora- tions & plausible plea of prescriptive right and vested in‘erest. Thoy have come to maintain_ boldly that the franchises bestowed upon them and the property acquired under these are thoir own, to do with as their officers and managers may deem best for thelr_own profit, without regard to any claim of right on tho part of the public. Fundamental principles of right sre declared to have mo validity as Togards them, and the suthority of courta and leglslatures Is openly de- rided. This audacicus policy has pro- ducod timidity among conervative men and given confidence to the cor- rapt organs and agents of corporate power to contend that there is no ground sither of right or expediency for bringing 1t ander contel or rogu lation. But there are indications that the people are waking up to the fact that they have fostered a power which threatens to defy them to put it under restraint. Goveraments and all their appliances are supposed to be sut- joct to the will of the people and subservient to their interests, but corporations derivirg their being and their priveleges from a governmental authority that springs from the people claim the right to conduot thelr oper- atlons without rogard to pablic in est, if they choose to do so, and with- out belng subjocted to legal restraints. This attituds forebodes o strogele for the mastery. The authority cf state and uaticnal government, each inits sphere, to take action for the regulation of corporate action o as to secure tho just rights of ths people is beyond quéstion. The expediency of exorcising it in & judicious man- ner caa no longer be doubted. It remaius for the people to exert them- selves tomake legislatures act in their behalf by the choloa of men who wll reprosent thoir_interests and by insisting on their idelity to those in- when chosen. It s desirable for all concerned that tho result should be secured without a fierce agitation that would be likely to_re- salt iu extrems moasures, but if it cxnnot be obtiined withoat an all- absorbing struggle fur that solo_pur- pose, such a straggle, with all its evile, wil' be sure to come.
