THE AN1I-MUNOPOLY LEAGUE Cextrar Crty, August 14, The State Anti-Monopoly league will mect at Hastings, September 27, 1882, in connection with the State Farmers' alliance, for the purposs of putting before the voters of the state of Nebraska an independent stato anti-monopoly ticket.

About 120,000 more immigrants arrived last 1880, For the three yoars 1830, 1831 and 1882, the peo- ple landing and settling in this coun- try from foreign lands numbered 1,- 915,598 or only sbout eighty-four thousand short of two millions, Ger many and Austria sent about one- third of last years immigrants, The immigration from Eigland exceeded however, merely came through Oan- ada from Earope on their way to the United States. The few figures given above are full of significance and importance. They show how powerful is the current set- correctly as possible, taking care, however, that the public interest should aot suffer, and holding them- selves in readiness to correct any error, if error there should be, upon the eorporation giving the necessary inforwation to enable such error to be corrected. Ninth—We denounce the railroad contract nystem as a deliberate at- tempt to enslave the commerce and teade of the whole Pacific Coast, and subjugate them to the control and ca price «f the railroad companies. Tt is agained public policy, becauss it seeks to make uee of the national bounty to break down hesithful competition which it is the policy of the nation to encourage, It is unjust and oppres sive, because it discriminates in favor of the strong at the expense of the weak, and offers bribes to the rich which it eollects back from the poor 1t is arbitrary and tyrannical, because it arrogantly interferes with the free- dom of trads aud proposes to prohibit | those who make use of its tranporta- | tion facilities from doing businees with any one who refuses to submit to its dictaticn, Its existence is a threat ting in towards this country from other lands, and no doubt to some de- groe explain changes in American political and social life. About four per cent. of our fif'y millions of peo- ple have landed in this country from Europe within three years. A large proportion of the men among theso people are now voters. Neatly all of them are laborers Thus at once they touch American society at two vital points, the ballot box and the labor market. The same percentage of foreign influence thrown into almost any other country in the world, tn the samoe space of time, and invested with powers in any sense comparable with those conferred by our laws and institutions, would probably precipitate a revolution, But thus far, while it cannot bo claimed that America has not felt the strain us well as derived, on the other hand, benefic from this stream of fresh lifo poured into it, vast territorial aroa, much of it yot unoc- peeuliar elasticity of our inatitutions, and of the tempor our cupied, and ti of our peopls have combined to pro- tect the country from tho evils that without such conditions might Lave ensued. It doos not follow that the tlood of imwigration will continue for a num- ber of years us great as it has during the past three years, but the indica- tions now favor the appearance of as large, if a not larger number this year than came over in 1881-82. The most of them ara at once attracted to our wossern states, and sooner or later disappear from the cast to settle on the cheap lands, awaiting settle- and its abolition a necessity. The re- wublican party pledges itself to pro hibit the making of such contracts by proper legislation to the extent, if necesrary, of making the same 2 pub- lic offence. Teoth—Wa demand of congress logislation guverning the carrying trade hetween the states and territo ries. The rates of freights and fares of all railroads engaged in such trade shonld be justly regulated and re- stricted, and any unjust discrimina tion between persons and places shonld be absolutely prohibited. Eleventh-——And we are opposed to eranting auy further subsidies to com- panies or corporations, and in favor of the immediate revocation of all land grants and rubsidies forfeited by non tulilment of the conditions of such grants, and the restoration of such lands to the public domain, to be held exclusively for actual settlers, Twelfth—All property should pay its just share of taxation. The pro; erty of corporations, like other prop- erty, should bo asseszed at its actual cash value, and tho corporations aud individuals should be compelled to pay their just taxes without abate- ment, dimiuution or compromise. Tux Bee commends the action of the California republicans to members The seven planks published above are worihy to be transferred into the platform of the republican party in Nebraska. They deal in no half -hearted way with the question of the hour. They leave no ground for trimmirg or evasion on of the parly in this stata, the part of candidates. Every aspirant for any putlic office on such a platform would be pledged to active work in the iuserests of the peoplo as against ronopoly exactions and could be held trictly to his record. There has been too much wrizgling on this question in other states and the Cali- ment and tillage. The day has gone by when fear of the capture of our country by the foreign eloment was used as a political bugbear. Com- munitics of new sottlers thus organized are quickly invaded by the school house, the newspaper and the church, those three powerful sgents of Ameri- can civilization, and at the expiration of a few years at the furthest the strangers with their children are assimulated iuto the body politic and become loyal, intelligent sud capable American cit THE CALIFORNIA PLATFORM, The republicans of California have formulated the position of the people of that atate regarding the legal status of the corporations sud the demands of every class of citizens on the Pa- cific conat for laws regulating and re. stricting the monopolies. No loss than seven planks in the party plat- form are taken up with the discussion of anti-monopoly subjects, as follows; Sixth—Corporations are creatures of law and subject to law, and all legal means should be taken to render it imporsible for aggregations of capital to become oppressive, Soventh—While we recognize the fact that the building of rairoads has proved oue of the most polent agen- oies in the development and progress of the country, we at the same tune roraember thut the great power which authorized such roads to be built, includiog the sovereign right to eminont domain, was grauted to the railroad companics by tho people, for the people, and on the sole ground that the building of rail- roads s & public use aud such rail- vouds public highways. W declare that railroad companies, the samo as individuals, should be dealt with in fairness and without ivjustics, but by reason of their relation to the people they must bo kept subordinate to the interest of the people within govern- mental control, The people should bo protected by law from any abuse or unjust exactions, Uujust diserim- wation against iudividuals or local- ities should be prohibited, Equal service upon equal terms to all per sons should bo euforced, Chavges for transporting persous and property should be hmited to what is required to pay the logitimate expouses of operating such railroads, their main. tonauce in good repair and u far interest on their actual value, Such value should bear the same relation to their assessed value as the value of other property docs to its assessed valuo. Charges in oxcess of this are in violation of the fundamentsl law of public use which allows railvoads to be built, and we heroby pledge our nominees for railroad commissioners to the enforcenent of these principles by such a material and substantial re ductions of farcs and freights as will socure that rosult, the bascs beiag cost of service with roasonable allowance or iuterest and repiire, as above in dicated, instead of the mercenary ex action of all the traflic will baar, hth - That the proper public au- thorities shouald not refuso to act in regulating freights and fares by resson of lagk of exact information in any artioular, if such information dould given but is rofused by the rail- road corporation; but in such case these authorities should act as near fornia republican convention may be congratulated on the backbone they have shown in meeting the iseue squarely and planting their party firmly on such a ringing platform, which is drawn in accordanco with the sentiments of the people whom they represented. DBradstreet's thinks that business men who aro interested in tho pro- curoment of & new bankruptey law should not intermit their effurts dur- ing the congressional rccess to secure the passage of such an act. Cougre:s will meet again in Docember, and tho mattor is lil ly to come up early i There are two bills pend- ing in the senate respeotively known as the Equity and Towell plans. The former is on the calendar, and is in charge of Senator Ingalls. The Low- oll bill, for reasons already explamed in these columrs, is greatly preferred by the businees mon of the country, and Senator Hoar will make a special effort to have it passed in lieu for the equity bill. Bradstreot’s be- lieves that if the friends of the Lowell plan aro in eainest they may get some kind of a bankruptey act through the - the sessis nate before the Christmas holidays. This done, a detsrmined effort might secure its passage through the housc, where the judiciary committee is ready with a bill which, in its main foutures, closely ressmbles the Lowell bill. It will be borne the term of the present congreas ex- pires ou the 4th of March next, and that the friends of a bankruptey law have, deducting the usual holiday re- in wind that cess, less than three months in which to secure its enactment, Durine the past week 110 failures in this ocountry were reported to Bradstrect's, The figures show a de- creass of 22 from the preceding week and 6 more than the corresponding wook of last year.

Passcngers Vs, Conductors. Ehiladelphia Pre . Ia view of the tendency of courts, only receutly manifested, to mterprot contracts bt 1 reilroad companies and passengers by the samo rules which govern ordinary countracts, 1t behooves passengers to read their tickets and noto well the contracts they are making, as well as the rep- resentations made to them by the companies’ officers, A short time ago judges were holding that a ticket was good until used, and good for a ride between the poiuts named, in cither direction, at the option of the pur. chaser. But this can no louger be considered good law. In s receut Connecticut case, agu York and New I i decided t a binited ti lees except for the trip w is face, Here the question of timi does not seem to have been involved, but the ticket read ‘‘Good only for one continuous trip; noetop over allowed.’ T'he plaintfl took the liberty, notwith- atunding, of stopping over at an iuter- mediate point, uud his partially used ticket was refused when he attempred to continuo his trip and he was ejected. He promptly brought euit tor damages, but the case finaily went againet hun, Thero are other rccent decisions that a passenger forfcits his right to proceed on the original ticket by stopping at a way-station without a *‘stop over” ticket, A passenger on the Delaware, Lack- awanna & Western road had pur- chased an excursion ticket from Mont- clair, N, J., to New Vork and return, On thetrip to New York the conduc- tor tore off a portion of the excursion ticket and handed the passenger the remainder, which he pocketed with- out looking at it. On hw roturn in the evening he presented this ticket, but the conductor refused to receive it, asit was a ticket to New York wed from Montclair instesd of for the return, Declining to pay, the brakeman w summoned, but while in the act of being eject- ed, and being still on the car, the pas- nger offered to pay; but the condue- tor's blood was up, and the passenger was landed on the platform of a way station. For this he recovered §3 000 damages; not becauso his ticket was good, but because the conductor had no right to refuse his fare when he tendered it on the train. On the question of limited or ex- cursion tickets, the time ot which ex- pires while the owner is still traveling, there are several decisions, These all assume that the contract as to time is a good one and must be observed by the passenger, but should be con- strued liberally in his favor. Tue New York ocourt of appeals has decided that if a ticket is punched by the conductor on the retura trip bofore the time is expired, it ia “‘used” within (he meaniug of the contract. A St. Louis case goes fur ther, the court saying that if the ticket 1s presented for a passage within the period of limita , such presontation was a using of the ticket, wud entitles the passenger to be car- ried to his destivation without regard |to the subscquent expiration of the day of limiation of the ticket |while en route, In another case the plaintif had purchased an excursion ticket from the Pennsylvania company from Toledo to Washington and retarn, li nited ou March 10, Ho loft Wash on his way back, at an hour by the railroad time-table which should have brought him to Tolodo at 10:40 p. m. on March 10, By the de- tention of trains he did not reach Pi tsburg till March 12, and the con ductor on the train from Pittsburg to Tuledo refused to receive his ticket on the ground of limitation, and the Dorsoy, in one of his letters, told Gartield that Wayne MacVeagh was passenger was ejected.

Detrolt Freo Press. A justice of the peaco in the inter- ior of Michigan had a case before him some days ago in which the defendant, who had been arrested as a suspiciovs character, and pleaded guilty to va- grancy, was sont to the Detroit house of correction for six months, A con stable took him in charge to deliver him here, and as the man spemed rather pleased at the idea of securing board and lodging for six months he was not handeuffed. As the train was about ready to go the constable moved across the aisle to talk politics with a friend, and pretty soon they were hav- ing it hot and heavy. When the con- ductor eame in for tickets he held out his hand to the prisoner, and the lat- ter shook his head and replied: “T don’t pay fare,” ““Aha! You don'y, eh? you pay or git!” “1 won't pay!"” “Then you'll git! When we slow up at the crossing you juwp off. If I find you on the train after we pass there I'll give you & bounce that you won't forgei!" In two wminutes the t began to slow, and the prisoner walked to the door and picked a soft spot and drop- pad off.

Overtures to ;the Milwaukee Road to Join the Present Quartette, What a Few Passos Judiclonsly Distributed Will Do, Concerning the Towa pool trouble the Chicago Tribune says: “The general managers of the vari- ous roads lending from this city to Council Bluffs held a meeting yester- day at the Grand Pacitic hotel for the purpose of taking some action regard- ing the admigsion of the Milwaukee & St. Paul into the Towa pool. Ever since the completion of the Chicago, Milwaukeo & St. Paul's Council Bluffs extension it has been rumored that this road would refuse to join the pucl, and that it would make war upon the other Iowa lines, There was no truth in these rumors. The Milwaukee & St Paul since the opening of its new line has not been detected in taking businees less than the régular rates charged by the other lines, and the only thing that could be justly charged againet the road was that it had given annual passes to a number cf prominent ship- pers at Council Bluffis and Omaha. This, of course, cannot be considered a great crime, since nearly every new road opening up for business makes special eflorts to gawn the good will of shippers. Yesterday was the firat time that a regular effort was made to get the Milwaukee & St. Paul to join the pool, and, while this was not ac- complizhed at this meeting, there is no doubt that the road will join as soon as eome side isaues have been ad- justed, the manager of the St Paul making this a condition before his road would join ihe Towa pool on the terms proposed, which is the same proportion of the business as the other lines are now receiving. There were present at yesterday’s meeting Marvin Hug- tt, Northwestern; T. J. Potter, Burlington; R. R Cuble, Ruck Island; John C. Gault, Wabasi Merrill, Milwaukee & Paul Merrill stated that his road was ready to jown the Iowa pool upon the terms proposed—namely: that his road ra. ceive the same share of the business as the other lines, but before duing eo he wouid like to see a sottiement of the difficulties botween his road, the Northwestern and the Rock Istand re- garding the Minneapolis and St. Paul business, He did not think that the Towa roads wero justified in fin fault because his road had issu passes to a few friends of the general superintendent at Council Bluffs and Omaha. The Rock Island when it opaned its ““albert Lea” route did not as fairly towards the St. Paul and Minneanolis pool of the Northwestern and M:weukee & St. Paul roads, Not only did the Rock Island secure businesa by issuing paeses, but it did not always maintain the rates ot the pooled lines. He thought it but just that before entering 'he Iowa pool some action should be taken to stop the fight between the Minnesota ronds. He was ready to admit the Rock Island into the St. Paul pool, and ho hoped the Northwestern would cease to offer any objections _toward h an arrangement. Mr. Hughitt stated that he was satisfied to admit the Rock Island into the St. Paul pool. Mr. Cubli, of the Rock Island, he was ready to enter into nego- wtions looking towards a settlement of the Minnesota troubles, as he was no more desirous than any of the other managers to have a fight on his hands, It was thereupon agreed that tho iagers of the Rock Island, Northwestern and Milwaukee & St. Paul should meet next Tuesday and try to settle their troubles regarding | the Minnesota Yusiness After hav- ing accomplished this object notice is to be given of another meeting of the Towa pool lines to reorganize the Iowa pool by taking in the Milwaukee & St. Paul, Railroad Notes.
