SEE? fund th« debt of the Railroad company. Plain, vigorous English was used by Congressman Maguire in dealing with the railroad problem. Every vestige of the mask in which the railroad is disguising was removed. He also took occasion to correct a false impression that has been fos tered by Republican speakers and newspapers with regard to the atti tude of the company in the fight over the Reilly funding bill. The powers of Fourth and Towns end streets, the speaker said, are trying to create the impression that if the Reilly bill or an acceptable substitute shall not be passed at the coming session of congress the fight will bo abandoned, nnd the govern ment will he permitted to take pos session of the road. Republican orators are vAnpletrtr nting this Ex pression with the statement that if the bill shall not become a law at the next session nothing enu be done, aa the government will fore close its mortgage and render fur ther resistance on the part of tho railroad company useless. T H E PEO PLE ARE W ATCH FU L. As a mntter of fact, Mr. Maguire said, the railroad had no intention of giving up the fight at the close of the next session of congress if it should fail to secure the passage of a funding bill. The law’s delays, he added, would prevent the gov ernment from obtaining possession of the Central Pacific railroad in less than three or four years from the date of foreclosure, and in the meantime the company would wage warfare against tho proceedings, which its unlimited wealth makes possible. Therefore, he said, the people of the Pacific coast and the entire nation should be watchful of their own interests and not permit the pacific statements of the railroad company to lull them to sleep. Government ownership of rail roads was strongly advocated by Mr. Maguire. The interest« of the people, he said, demanded that the common carriers of th« couutry should be operated for tho benefit of the country should be operated for the people and not for the profit of the giant corporations. “ Not until these roads have been sold under judicial supervision and the monopoly dispossessed,” the speaker continued, “ will the people of this country, and particularly of the Pacific States, feel at ease. OREGON, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1894. involve an increase in the civil ser vice of the country. But it is not the purpose of the measure advocat ing government ownership to have it take up the business of carrying passengers and freight, but to have the roads operated by the same service used now and on a more economical basis than the monopoly giveB to the people. There would be practically little increase iu the present forcos required to carry on the administration of the govern ment and no increase iu the railroad forces. With government owner ship of railroads better transporta tion of freight and passengers would ensue, aud the accrued benefits would go to the public. The rail roads are public highwnys as much so as are the wagon roads, and no monopoly should be allowed to rule them. I believe that railroads, as well as the piko roads, should be thrown open to those who own ti&ins or could build trains, so tbut competition would result and the public obtain a better service. There is no need of being crushed under the heels of a mouopoly and there is no reason why we should be, or why the mortgage of the sub sidized railroads should not be foreclosed and the railroads oper ated by the government.” Mr. Maguire was frequently inter rupted during hi« remarks by applause. A P olitica l Pointer. President Debs, of American Rail way Union, said to a reporter in Brooklyn the other day: “ I have received 42 application . for charters since I left Chicago. Tlie Union is booming. I predict this country has seen its biggest railroad strike. There will never be one like it again. At a convention of 420 delegates from various branches of the Ainer- can Railway Union recently, the ballot was settled as being more efficacious than a strike. A resolu tion indorsing the government own ership of railways, telegraph lines and nifties vt£s agreed to. amf the People’s party was indorsed.” » ■ Virginia Sun, Richmond: Fifty years ago Switzerland passed through much the same ordeal that the farmers of the United States are now enduring. Bank issues of mouev at usurious rates of interest had impoverished the people. They were mortgaged heavily, and there was a prospeot that the usurers would soon tako the lands in settle ment of the mortgages. The patri otism of Sticmptli suggested a rem edy. A government bank was established. The public credit was printed on these notes, and these notes were loaned to the farmers on mortgages running thirty years at 3J per cent interest, the borrower to pay one-thirtieth of the principal back annually. The old mortgages were taken up. Shylock kicked, but of no avail. The people were relieved, and have since been happy and prosperous because they had the sense to see that they could use their own credit for the money and profit by the transaction.
