A Rre.it deal Was published during the. absence of the Prcsulentel party 02 the swing around the circle about the cost of the railroad travel, tvnd there hatf been j. jrre.it many- state ments puHisiied to the effect that this or that Republican vms "paying the freight." George M. Pullman, the millionaire sleep ing car proprietor, ras one of the generous friendi of this President irho'nas credited with paying the bills of the railroad companies. All of these btatements arc wild. There vere no railroad bills to pay, and therefore no one paid am railroad bills. When the President of the United States travels in hi capacity as a citizen and not in his offi cial capacity, he travels as a guest of the railroads. Grover Cleveland did this, and all cf his predecessors did the same. Mr. Cleveland, when the inter-State commerce" law went into effect, began to pay his fare on the railroads; but he did not do so long. It Looked Too 1'unnj. It was rather ridiculous for the Presi dent's private secretary to walk up to the ticket office of the railroad company and buy five or six first-class tickets from Wash ington to New York at $0 apiece to pay the expense of a special train of luxurious parlor cars which cost the Pennsylvania Hailroad Company several hundred dollars to run. So, after a time, President Cleve land abandoned this rather sentimental custom and did as his predecessors had done. It oiild not be possible for the President of the United States, unless he was a very rich man, to pay for the accommodations which the railroad companies furnish hini when hegoe: on an evtonded trip. And any railroad company, for the sake of its own reputation, would not be willing to !iaethe President travel like an ordinary tourist. It Mould take tons of thousands of dollars to re-emburse tiiat railroad for the 1 damage it would sutler if the President of the United Mates should be injured while traveling on its line. It U to the interest of the railroad company, therefore, to make the i. resident as ecure as possible m jour neying, and it is a good advertisement for the conipauj 10 make him as comfortable as possible. f Would Fay Tor the Privilege, I The President is a guest of the railroad I companies by ihoe lines he tra els, and I then is alw.ns competition between them I lor his pitronage. On (he suing around the smaller circle which the President made last Jail Mr. Ilishop. t!i agent of the Chesa peake and Ohio Itailroad, made all the ar rangements lor transportation, and with one exception there as not a railroad on the route eo ercd which did not strive for the pri ilejrc of carr mg the Presidental party. Tliis o;.p exception sent in through its gen eral passenger a nt a bill for transporta tion. T1k J'r snlent knew nothing ot this. 2Co litembT of hi immediate party knew ain thing ol it If the bill had been pre sented to the Presidmt it would have been paid promptly. Rut before it could reach 1.1m the President of the railroad company heard of it and recalled it In no other in Ftance Mas an effort made to collect trans portation expenses from the Presidental party. m J2k-ircsidcnt of the United States could evil spend the whole of his annual salary on a trip like tliat which Mr. Harrison has just completed. There is no reason why he should spend that amount, though, or in fact any large amount. The railroads along the route rccognire the fait that the President's coming increase their immediate business, nnd they not onl offer the Picsidcnt cwry accommodation by arranging their tram schedules so as to accommodate the Presi dental party, but the take extraordinary ' Precautions Against Accident. These precautions represent the greater part of the exptnst of carrying, the Presi dental part; On the Chesapeak-e and Ohio railro Klfor c-vaniplc, v hen the President t ent Wot o cr that line the enormous coal traffic of 'he companj Mas side-tracked for the niht so as to in'ure a clear track and absolute freedom from the possibility of a collision while the Presidental traiu was passing o er the line. The Chicago, Bur lington and Qniney railroad in liandling the Presidental party cleared its track and ran a pilot engine "the minutes ahead of the Presidental train. The actual cost of trans porting a party like that of the President, is small compared with the cost of providing against accident. But the railroad compa nies all look upon this-as a good investment. Before the President went West on his recent trip Mr. Boyd, of the Pennsylvania llailroad Company, who had the arrange ments for the trip in charge, had received telegrams from every railroad o er which the President might possibly w ish to travel, extending hini a cordial invitation to be its guest on his lourney. The President did not see these telegrams, and in fact knew nothing of them." The transportation ar rangements were left in the hands of Mr. Boyd and if at the end of the journey he had handed the President a bill for trans portation ner the route it would have been paid with great promptness, though possibly with considerable heartache. Transporting for the Goi eminent. The railroads are not so modest when they hae the Go eminent to deal with. When the senate or the House of Bepresentatives sends a committee out through the country to investigate our relations -with Canada or the cost ol the transportation of meat prod- railroads collect full fare for the entire party. Tor example, when the select Com Inittee on delations with Canada went to Boston two years ago, the Pennsylvania P.jilroad Company sold them full fare tick ets from Washington to New York, and the Pullman Company collected 52 So each from tbcni for stats 111 the parlor car from Wash ington to. erse; City. When a deputy ser geant at arms o'f the'Scnate is sent to sen e a subpoena he bujs a railroad ticket and iiays his sleeping-car fare like anyone else. X is only when traveling over the subsi dized Pacific railroads that the Government officers travel free. When a Senatorial funeral occurs the rail road and sleeping car companies always pro fit by it. For example, when Senator Beck was buried the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad col lected $1.5u3 2o for transportation of the committee to Lexington and return, and for the transportation "of the remains. The Pullman Car Company collected ?390 for the use of the three cars which the commit tee occupied. Thji titlle Jaunt to Alaska. The heavy charges for transportation "have caused the sub-committee of the Sen ate Committee on Territories to abandon its idea of going to Alaska this summer. This Vas the pet project of Senator Piatt, who proposes to take np at the next session of 'Congress the question of the government of Alaska. Mr. Piatt believes that Alaska will have to be a made a colony of the United States as Algeria is a colony cf France, lie wanted to take the other members of the ci'iimittee to Alaska this summer to give them some idea of the necessities of tin country ".i ith aicv to concerting them to his belief about its government. He proposed first to take one of the naval boats on the Pacific coast, but as this was found to be impracticable a telegram wag gent to the Oregon Railway and Navigation Elbe use of -one-of-its boats for 30 days, The price named in the telegraphic answer re ceived was 522,000. This staggered the committee, and after consultation it was determined to abandon the trip. The entire expenses of such select committees in the long recess two years ago was less than $40,000, and the Committee on Territories did not feci like spending half that amount on one item of transportation tliis summer. So the trip has been aban doned. 1 Catarrh' Catarrh!! For catarrh in all stages and forms, colds, coughs, .sore throstj la grippe and its effects, Pc-fu-Ba is positively the hest remedv know n.
