We will see what was; the condition of the

the'eharter was repealed.
It wilt be remembered that up to this' date I
=--the summer of 1856—the read had been
built from -Conneltiiille to West Newton,. a
distance of only twenty-Ste miles, and was
operated with but two loComotives, two pas
senger cars, and a Very limited number of
freight cars, and wee dependent on the Mean
sylrania Central railroad Company toe corn-
Muniention with Pittsburgh; it was at the same
Wee biirthimed with a debt - of Mx hundred
thousand dollars. From that period Up to the
present hoar,this eonip - any buboes struggling
with difficulties of the most serious ebarae-
ter.' The great commercial Crisis of 11387, its
will be remembered, affected deeply the pros
ecution of all public week as well ea individn ,
al enterprise. The effect, of- Ibis -Anatolia
crisis bad scareibiransed, eche* tie Political
troubles ending hi civil war, taxed the energy
of the country and diverted its labor and ear
!tat into new channels, so, that all branelies of
trade tilui tidastry were eompletely paralysed
fir a 'time. Criarding elesely upon these ad
verstiles of a public charaeter, the minipany
was involved in troubles growifig ant ef the
defile:oton of faithleei agents, and what was
I a still greater calamity,' it experienced the
1 treachery of those who Wheat its 'friends.
But la Januery, 1881; notwithatanding . ill

It has been well said that "there is •no law
upon the statute book that Las not had its or
igin in some evil to , be remedied, some good
to be effected, some want to be supplied, or
some purpose to ho gained; and a little investi
gation into attendant circumstances, will gen
erally enable the curious is .such Matters to
trace each act of legilation to same individu
absowee.", •
In this particular cue, as in other ode of
legislation, a little trozble may enable us to sr
ii,re at the origin of the "Repealing art."
We have seen bow this company struggled
along through a great financial crisis-through
the perilous years of eiv„li strifej-nnd the other
difficulties in which, though no fault of its izwilt,
ithad been so constantly involved, until it kid
reached a period in its history when its SUI
success was no longer doubted.
The. •sevon'y-two miles constructed. ana
stockea \ at a vitt l
of several millions of dollars
had now, become renumerative, as we bare
attempted to show, and sontriets: had been
awarded for the entire road, with every sx
' rangement made to secure . its speedy couple—'
tion.. It is a significant fact , that ' up to this
time it had met with no serious opposition_from
other railroad corporations; nor bed a single
complaint been made by any of the stoekhold- 1
ers, nor by &single citizen along the line of
the, road or elsewhere. the Pennsylvania
named company, however, 'always alive to its
•
own Interest, and too often regardless. of the
rights of others, now saw a rival company istr
tively Preparing to like the field,' teed Atomise
determined to throttle it on the very thresh- 1
hold of its existence." •
• The Pennsylvania road heretofore free fro* ,
competition, with nn annual revenue of eigh
teen millions, had grown into a great inon
°poly:. It Saw . the - Fort Wayne and Chicago
road, four.hmulred and sixty-seven 'miles in
length, the Cleveland and Pittsburgh road,
one hundred and fifty miles . in length, and the
Steubenville and Allegheny; Valley roads, each
about forty miles in length, with their impose
tanthoraecilieiN aU terminating in the city of
Pittsburgh. . •

Mr. Speaker, let ti*ghinee fora moment at

sideratiOn, the best interests of the people;
most elesrli and emphatically . demand .the
construction of the Pittsburgh and Counells=

County, where it would connect with and se..'
cure the building of the Southern pennsyl#
nio road, and thence through the Southern
tier of counties eastward, thus- establishing a
line that . would, to come extent, compete with
the Pennsylvania Central. But as it now is
it is a mere tributary to this great monopoly,
instead of,s, comietitor, as it should ho..' Sir,
it is a fact that the traffic and &ratio' over thiSl
sixty stales of road front Connellsville to Piits=
