P. BTmoadit BlLOftCa, Fublltbtn. May 1. wrtuo Ui wabh an Uot oxiwataii in Uii iota it thell tnoh ta 'AD MAKAGEM Tbe recent KnigLts of Labor mass meet inu in New York city, under tlio auspices of Air, 1'owderly, wound up with resolution urging popular aRitntloii in favor of Government management and demanding that tho hiring of privMo police by railroad companies sbn'il bo inado a felony by etat- ute. It is tedious and somewhat i i the ethics of tho controversy between tho acting president of tho New Vovk Central and.Mr.

Powdorly, with tbo iudoreemont of tbo council of tho united order ot ralltvay employes, regarding tho discbarpo of certain persons from tbe employment of that company. Vice President Wobb insists tbat they were discharged for propor reasons in purely bueincGa vlow, and not becauco thoy were Knights of Labor. Mr. Powderly insists that tboy vpro discharged In the execution of a deliberately planned war npon tbo and organized labor, and ovon supposing otherwise ho contends that tho Con. tral management has not, or ought not to have, the right to discharge employee at discretion, but should bo required to submit tho question of discharge or retention, npon appeal, to some, investigating or arbitrating tribunal.

Now whether Powderly states truly 01 not tbo spirit acd design of Vico President Wobb, his 'final contention is ono that, if successfully maintained, would practically evict the company from tbe responsible management of its: operating affairs. Thoconten- tiou is followed with logical consistency by tho proposition to transfer the railroads In peneral to Kovernmont management and ta ninke it unlawful and criminal for the companlea to hire private protection for trains, hande, tracks, nnd fixtures. Tho control, whether it be lu'im overwhelming labor organization or tho supreme political authority, tbat iu' form or effect tbe management of any groat rait, road line from tho company must relievo the company of. its responsibility to tho public na a chartered common carrier to the extent that It is of power.to choose lie moiliOdB and its. men for the em to tbo Tbe-obief'of tbrss to-maintain" i continuous '-Ssrvico for freight and travel.

failure to maintain Boch Borvico where it is within tbe bounds of reasonable possibility to do tho company is liable to aud others detrimentally affeptod for damage and ia finally liable if the failure Is persistent to forfeiture of its charter npon due legal But what degree and kind of responsibility may attend tbo lodgment of" managing power outtide of the companies is ti prpb- lom tbiita'as yet eludes measurement 'and' ih the mazes 'of If Borne grand federation of labor should capture and practically control tbo railroads wlth tlio sanction of the political tbe companies would be relieved of responsibility to tbe public in the matter of regular and continuous service, but how could that responsibility be; made to regt effectually upon tbo federation In case tbe controlling power wonld represent neither chartered obligation nor tn, ae -shipping and traveling public. What then? Tho political authority would uoouer. or -later bo tively called npon to guarantee proper service to tbo public nndet tho auspices of tbe federation. In the event of gross and chronic mismanagement it would inevitably devolve upon the political. authority to protect tho public by assuming direct control, and with the whole power of man- neement assuming tbo whole responsibility.

Then with regard to interstate railroad trafHc tho federal administration wonld not necessarily be responsible to tho public otherwise than it now is with regard to tbe postal service. Of courie provision forcom- pensatiug investors and securing creditors wonld accompany the transfer of tho rail- ronu tu the control and management of the government. What portends thtt shippers aud generally would be likely to suffer by tho cbango Is the fact tbat tbo government would bo exempt from tho common general contract of insurance for freight and passengers.

Jen nlngs, Calcastcu parish, writes to th Now Orleans Tlruea-Douiocrnt in behalf tho Iowa colonists in and around tbat towi to say that they have been oxp'orlmontlni thoro in tha matter of sugar csuoilurina the Inat two years, and that tho results ob tallied nro highly uatlsfnctory and oncour aging. Mr.

Fbauklsind wante tho-paper, 01 behalf of (-hose colonists, to call tbo attention of capitallpts to this mutter, and to propose tho construction at or near Jen nlugaof ciimral fui tcry for tbo mnuufuc turo of sugar anil molnsocs. Tho Times Democrat Mcordinglysays; "If nny ono wll undertake tho erection of BUO'U a factory th farmers in tho neighborhood will gaiirnn moro acres in product to tbo mill at a stipulated price, to bo ground; and they will increase their acreage from year to year, thus giving II greater business. Wo gladly publish this proposition, and hope it will havo tho desired effect. Wo aro satisfied that tho Cal- caslcu farmers will do all they undertake, and wo'feel quite certain that, by their intelligent and industrious thoy will mako tho cultivation sugar cane as on thcfr prairies as ia on tho alluvial lands. It ban been supposed that )oth rico and tragar needed a rich alluvial ooil.

Until a few years ago no one imagined that rico could bo cultivated successfully on our prairies, but the Calcasiou people have shown to tho contrary, and bave mudo their mrish ono of tho leadinz rice producers in the stato.Wegavoan account.a fewdayu ago, of.the arrival bero of the great!

They have doubled or quadrupled their TOP every until a parish which load- id.butafew cars half a dozen years ago will require 4000 for this year's crop. The amo energy they carried into rice grow- ng thpy aro prepared to display in raising ogarcano. In'tho latter case, however, a ontral factory is needed, for it is impossible to carry on the manufacture of sugar irofltably on small farms of 50 or 100 acres, nd there is uo sugar house near to do tho rinding. Give those farmers a sugar fnc- and they will soon cover the prairie vith cane, and at samo 'time PAJ a andsome profit to tho enterprising capi- nlist who constructs the needed mill."

Tho hope a groac future for tho southwest Is wrapped up in these deep harbor projects. In respect to tha cost traffic, It makes very little difference how far a ship may have to sail If there be a clear ran iu its course and a sate harbor at the end. A shin mUtmt out of Liverpool may almost as well come, up far as. the coat of traffic is concerned, to Galveston as to Ilosbou or New York.

Foreign goods should be laid down In Gnlveston us cheaply as in New York, if Gnlveston had a deep Thla -being truo Denver, with proper rail IB from Gnlvcston. Denver is a llttlo fartuer 011 an nir line from Gnlvestou than Chicago from Now York. Tho distance-is about- that of bt. Louis from New York. With a deijp harbor at Galveston Denver would, therefore, a a favorably situated to command tho trade of its siir- country in imported goods as St.

Louis is with respect to country surs rounding' it. This shows that when the deep harbor is completed Denver-will rulo tho whole cen- rul Rocky Mountain reglon-commercially, provided it. has by that tliho proper rail connection not only witli Galveston but-also vith all parts tho central mountain region.
