Danger 3 of Monopoly.
The Hon. David Davis, now Vice-Pres
ident of the United States, in a recent
letter states:
"Great corporations and consolidated
monopolies are last seizin- the "venues
of power that lead to the control ot the
Government. It is an open secret that
tliev rule States through procured leg
islatures and corrupted courts, that they
are strong in Congress, and that the\
are unscrupulous in the use of means to
conquer prejudice and acquire iiiliuenee.
This condition of things is truly alarm
ln- for unless it be changed quickly and
thoroughly, free institutions are doomed
to be subverted by an oligarchy resting
upon a basis of money and corporative
power."
The New York Times (Hep), in an ar
ticle regarding the encroachment of cor
porate power says :
"It is not only absorbing to itsell the
fruits of labor and the gains ot trade and
piling up wealth in the hands of the few,
but it is controlling legislation and en
deavoring to sway the decisions of coin s
in its own interest. We are now at a
stage in the contest where the poop e
may vindicate their authority and pDce
these corporations under the regulation
of law."
There is no question that there is da 1-
ger from the sources above retailed to.
The people, against this power, are ac
tually powerless from the lact that lail
roads are a concentrated power, while
the people are scattered. II a Member
or Senator stand up against this power
he is soon disposed of by false accusal ion
and malicious insinuations. The men
who take the railroad money know how
to destroy the usefulness ot honest, in
dependent men, and it is systematically
done. Men of known integrity and abili
ty ought to be chosen in advance of nom
inati ms.
The troubles in Ireland are tar from
settled. The first decision under the
Land act are all that should be desired,
but tncre are to be reviewed, and the
power of the landlords is so great that
the rents may be placed as high as ever.
Despite the severe coercion measures,out
rages are still rife, and it is impossiple to
exercise the rights of property except at
great personal risk. The cases hitherto
decibed py the Land Commission were
precisely those contemplated by the
Land act; out the deciaions were subject
to revison, and wtien the ordinary Irish
estates came before the court the gen
eral reductions of rents would probably
not be continued. Compensation to
laublords would have to be considered by
l'arliment. In concluding, Lord Halting
ton said the Government would continue
to act with unswerving firmness and in
exhaustible patience.
A petition is in circulation requesting
the Presid nt o appoint Gen. O. E. Lab
cock Superintendent of Public Buildings
and Grounds, the place formerly held by
Col. Rockwell. It is urged that Gen.
Babcock was Superintendent of Public
Buildings and Grounds when the greatest
improvements were made in Washington
and that he was an energetic oflicer,keep
ing the public grounds in better condi
tion ih m any of his successors. Gen.
Babcock is now connected with the
Light-house Board.
There's one thing the deatli-rattle in
surance companies can't do and that is
to insure themselves against their own
dissolution, which is now only a question
probably, of a few weeks.
In the case of Pacific Bank at Boston,
the Comptroller has decided that a debtor
can offset the certificate of deposit issued
to him in liquidation of his own debt.
Citizens of Wilkesßarre have sent
petitions to Washington asking for the
removal of Postmaster Smith, who is
charged with having di felted the fiee
postal delivery to which the city was
entitled.
