J. K. — Corporate Charity. Avapahoe Mirror, In conversation the other day with Gen, Supt. J. T, Clark, of the Chicago, Milwaukeo and St. Paul road, we learned that that corporation purchased from Nebraska over 20,000 bushels of seed comn, which was sold to the farmers along the line of that road at a nominal price. Experienced farmers were selected to furnish the com, and their expenses paid by the railroad, Grain dealers who had secured d corn and were demandin, for it from $2.50 to $3.00 per bushel were thus knocked out of time, Antis monopoely papers please copy—Omaha Republican, Will the Republican be o little more specific and tell us what that *‘nominal price’, was! - We venture to say it was enough to cover all expenses, from first to lust, and that it never cost the railroad company one cent.
