The total is 1,274 wiles of new main track, exclu sive of side track, laid on seventy dif- ferent lines, exceeding by more than 300 miles the construction during| July, which, it was thought, would not be again equalled. The construc tion for eight months of the present year, on 238 liues, in thirty-two states, has been 7,048 miles of wmain track. The construction for the entire year is estimated at 10,600 wiles, the largest number of miles being 207, in Iowa, the next, 1563, in New York, and the third, 142, in Wisconsin, rates and prevent ihe public from| o oo, rolitical repr obate in Ne- reaping tho benefit of a businoes), .

A firm by the name of Richards & Harriseu, of San Francisco, refused to surrender their mercantilo independence and at once attention to became objects of E. P. Vining, pgeneral freight agent of the Unpion ¥acific. Mr. Vining iusisted that the firm should enter into s contract with the Union & Centrsd Pacific not to ship any poods from Now York to Ban Francieco by water and when Richards and Harrison refufed, he rotaliated by gross discriminations against the firm in Tdaho and Montana. He finally found vent in his epleen in the follow- ing letter, which we commend to the attention of the producers in Ne- braska: If you continuoe to fight us, we will fight you, and prevent you selling a single bottle in Idaho and Montaua. I will put your rate ao high that you can't ge? there, ana give others special rates which will keep you out. Wo will fight a house the samo as a com- peting road, to the bitter end, or we stand in with him and protect him on rates. In openly announcing his platform of “‘submiesion or ruination,” Mr, Vining admits the gravest charge which has been brought against the monopolies by the outraged people of tho west. That charge briefly stated is, that under the prescnt loose laws roatrialing tho railronds, and their still looser enforcement, tho power to arbitrarely build up or destroy local industry lies in the hands of the cor- poration managers, and is continually employed by them with no end in view excepting their own selfish in- torest. The denials of this charge made by General Manager Kimball, which are rogularly repeatod in the Republican during every session of the Nebraeka legislature, will not stand beside this open and defiant confession of the gen- oral froight agent. Mr. Vioing has committed to paper the policy of the Union Pacific in dealing with its patrons. “I will put your rate so high that you can’t get there, and will give others special rates which will keep you out.” This is the sentence which stares every merchant in the faco who dares to protest aguinst the oxorbitant exactions of the groat monopoly, and who attempts to avail limeelf of tho benefits of & competing e, TIn what line of private business could such an outrageous policy bo laid down with out ruining the firm who dared to an- nounce it as a princi of their mer- What grocer or oould 8o threaton his patrons aud retain a standing in tho business community?

Do the people of Nobraska propose to stand idly by and permit such a policy to operate to their dotriment? Will thoy permit the mouopoly cappers to bliud them with the dust of plausible lies and false statistics of tho benefits which the rmln-:niuamxi..»u.-m.; upon them, while every merchant who uses the roads knows that Vining's plan is put, wto p e evory day to rob our| producers aud incresse the cost of | hviog to every man, woman and child | i the wost?

Ho would have been politicaily dead long ago it it were not for the corruption fund he derives from the rings and Dougls county has been taxed thousandas of dollars tor rotten jobs which this rogue has helped to put through the legislature, It was mainly through his ciforts that Douglas county is now attached to the South Platte district. Church Howe hud made a trade to help Valentine by cutting Douvlas county off, and he was promised in return the delogation to Congrees. The ques- tion s, will our people ratify this cor- rupt bargain made by Thurston, Val- entine and Howe? Will our working men give aupport at the primaries to a ticket that is pledged to foist a man upon them in Congress who has in- sulted and villified them in open ses- sion in the Iast legislature by kicking their petition under the table? — “Tur regular party nominations to the house of representativosg’ angs the Now York Zimes, “so far oa they have been made, do no% show much cepacity in the paorty machinery of vither republicans or demccrats to respond to public opinion.

The Jansas Crop of Politiclans, Ervoravo, Kas., August 27, To the Editor of Tus Bew: I sco in Tan Bee that Nebraska has plenty of men who are willing to serve in the various state and county offices, 80 that it seems useloss for Kansas to transport any of her 1,000 disap- pointed candidates for office to your state. Here in Butler councy a nomi dation for oflice in the republican party 18 equivalent to an election, henca there is no time in the year that there is a lack of self-sacrificing, willing, anxious candidates to sorve the dear people in offica, All the year round there is a horde of these fellows who never cease to importune the people for their sufrage, A year ago and less, there were quite a number of Farmers' alliances in this (Butler) county, and for a while they bid fair to live and become uscful in checking extravagauce and corruption at home at ieast; but when the party lines were drawn they scam- pered for their own camps, and now seein satisfied with men who have be- trayed them before, Right here I am induced to say that it is unfortunate for tho people that they huve not got a nowspaper like Tue BEE to awaken o liv intereet em and champion theircausy in a straightforward, fearless manner, regardloss of pacty lives or pariy fealty one that would vuice the wants of the people in clear, unmistakable language, and strike hard blows where hard blows are needed, regardless of consequences, or who it would plense or offend. Wo have too mauy news- papers that claim to be anti-monopoly, —but through ignorance, cowardice, orsome other weakness equally as harmful and ehameful they soon fall far beneath their "claims, One week they are for the people and against monopolies and all their abuses, and then for the next two weeks, under the withering frown of political bosses and railroad officials, they bow low and as gracefully as they can take back or explain away the charges made. Then to conc al their short- cominogs they throw the people a bone by telling them ‘‘this is a glorious country, its inhabitants are prosperous and therefore ought to be happy and contented and not grumble at the vailrcal companyies.” What we want is more papers like Tue Bee that has the courage and ability to show the inner workinge, the cuaning devices, and shrewd villianies that are prac- tised upon the people, under the sanc- tion and in the name of law by those giant monopolies and corporations which the people and government has lifted into power by voluntary dona- tions of land, money and bond Yours, W.
