John €. Weleh tn the Poputar Sctence Monthly for Ity Mostof the great fortunes of the United States it are unduly great—are ascribed to the rapid development of the means of transportation and the facility with which 1s have been cen tered - comparatively fow hands, The general sense of the nation is that this concentration of power, of wealth, is an evil, and that it would be much botter if we could have had the development of the transportation interests that we have had with a greater diftusion of the power and wealth that haye attended them. The founders of our republic thought they were establishing eivil institutions where enormous fortunes would be compara- tively unknown. A hundred years hardly passed—certainly not a long time in national life—when the largest indi- vidual fortune of the world is acceredited to the United States, and there are others that approximate this in magnitude, and many of them dating back to less than one-fifth of a century. In the matter of private wealth, wo have clearly departed from the ideas of our fathers. In this departure is there adherence to the stern principles of republicanism with which our country started out, and have theso growths been fortuitous, exceptional, casily swallowed up in the general growth and prosperity of the country, so that the spirit of our institutions 1s unchanged, and arc these fortunes to be dissipated in an early succeeding generation, and not to be replaced by others of equal or ater magmtude and greater i num- those m The istinets of the nation are that in any other solution of than in the line of sup- t have made these ubject be de- danger lu these_inquir pression of causes _th vossible.

The pean untries that have enjoyed a like favor- development with oursclves in Ith, barring that which came from our virgin territory, such developments of the physical forces in their adminis- tration and the sccompanying emolu- ments have not been centralized upon a few. These administrativ 1se of railroads, aceruing to so few, be brifly summarized as follows 1. The gratuitous distribution of stock to promoters and the construction of the railroad from the sale of mortgage honds, and by defaulted bills for merchandise and labor. Construction board committees, dircetors, made up of pro: moters who handle the cash realized from the sale of honds and the credit which has been established for the prop- erty, and who are practically irresponsi- ble, as they report from themsclves as constructors to themselves as proprietary directors. 3. Bxpress and other companies mak- ing usc of the franchises of the original company and its road-bed, and taking to themselves the cream of the busine 4. Rebates, drawbacks, and the v devices by which favored shippers ar lowed to usurp th ness of the road, bulk of 1t, in in channels, and in which the profit aceruing to them from paying less freight is direculy but the mimimnm advantage to them, as by it they may control the production, manu- facture, and marketing, and real and specu. ¢_prices of an_ important com- modity, and so, by eliminating compet, tion and controlling speculation, draw enormous profits from the public that do not show at all in the simple handling of the articles as freight. 5. The property being corporate, and its u“unx-sx'ip represented by negotiable stocks and bonds, and which have gone Jargely into the hands of the publie, hoth by the natural and manivulated fluctua- tions which take place in the negotiable sceurities, those that are ‘‘outside’’ are emolument. the corporations, ous at an immense disadvantage compared to those that are ‘‘inside,” and a perennial source of profit is at hand tor the “few” who have reached the advantageous posi- tions. By possessing inside knowledg of a number of leading companies, by making money in the loan market searce or plentiful, the whole stock market can be ided” for the benelit of one or more onerators. 6. The wrecking, intentional or othe; wise, of valuable property through aceu- mulated mortgages and debts, and its r establishment at a comparatively small cost to the new owners, 7. The consolidation of different com- panies: those that are continuous on the same i those that are parallel and originally designed to be compotitive, and those thui radiate from a common centre or do the business of a particulur section, To make one compuny of two or ompanics, to economizé in admin- istration, to make them probably more effective, to eliminate competition, has been generally unlooked for, and has added greatly to the economic position and consequently to the value of the rail- ronds ns paying properties. While the consolidation may be wmeritorious, this has afforded the' chief opportunity for “stock-watering,” and is a field where Napoleons of finance have specially dis- tinguished themselves and enhinced their wealth. he large salaries paid high railroad officials is to a great degree only a legal ized method of giving them an 1mportunt vart of the emoluments received. Their positions being free from the strain of personal competition and risk of capital, such as attend the business man, and without the pressu f social expenses and duties, such us rest upon the hizh government official, and frequently desti tute of requirements of expert skill and professional knowledge, such as often command prizes of the highest they are altogether without a parallel as remunerated positions Electric, gas and other companies rep rosent branches of transportation, of which railroads are the great representa tives, and much is true of these con nies that is true of railroad companies and all stand on much the sane ground s vaid to their high ofii regarding salari neral effects cials and in their In contrast to these advantag and m ing to railrond organizers the advants accrue by the nagers. ased to and all other stock and 1o which prospectuses, how tter are conlined, arec 1.

We find a public sentiment alarmed at this situation, but almost despairing how to act helpfully We find threats to deal with the matter summarily, and with precedents that itis the unexpeeted that hanpens, with knowl- edge of the destroying power in human society of the chuliition of collected human passion, 1t is not the part of wis- dom not to inquire into and to be indiff- erent to these threats: and sueh an in- quiry is speci 1y obligatory in a popular government hke that of the United States. The status of transportation—whether itis an affair of commerce or thoe body politie, or part of one and part of tho othe 1d the ill-defined thought and the unpronoune ction upon it—marks the first point of the difficulty Second, we have a strong leaning to it as purcly a matter of commerce. Thivd, in_the presence of a sentiment that has at length reached public con tion that it 1 t least an is purtially Fair of the body politic, has risen an embar- rassment of how to treat it as such The embarrassment is gr ly aug mented in the fact that we under a dual government of local and general au thority, between which the lines arc not clearly’ drawn, and which has been a burning question of politics, and many believe may be again fanned into a flame. The civil w r was latterly an affair of sections of the country, but the sentiment that led to it rested " largely upon the question of loeal or general, state or national government, and manv h hoped that no scrious point would eve rise again in this controversy. While the railroad problem is not matter wherein jealousy has been red between the states and the OV ernment, it has been viewed fizht al and centralized of a matter between lo tin some de authority, and so sul to the feeling or predjudice accentu by the war, t th Wis anterior to it largely had its growth as a nati in the desire of the south to poteet the institution of sl The result of that war was on the side of the general government us an issue of local and gen- ) government, as well as in the main issue, but on all sides the distaste is pro- nounced for more issues partaking of this character. rom the view that transportation on the colos: ale on which we have 1 roud transportation in this country, is in some measure u matter of government, itis plain now, and seems as though it might have been piain at any time, th it is too wide in its scope to be tre successfully by the local state govern- ment. ‘There are two divisions of the subject from the national standpoint: The position of the government toward 1t as defined by the constitution.
