On this Vance took, the floor. ; He ridiculed the idea that Senators did hot have sufficient kuowledge and common sense to be able to say that railroads shouldSbe prohibited from pooling and discriminating against persons and Dlaces. There were, no doubt, matters of railroad manage raent that Senators did not under stand, but there were also some sim ple matters that even the Senate pages could understand, mucn elo quence had been expended in the Sen ate on tnis ranroaa suoject out. vance . .- -1 1 1- TT thought the eloquence of the senators was in inverse ratio to ineir aisposr tion to do anything effective. It had been said that so many people wore interested in railroad stocks, that we ought not tapass laws to restrict their charges. The same argument would apply to the business ot robbing hen roosts. The clamors ot railroad men were like theproteete of chicken stealers who would inform legislators that they did not understand .the business ot chicken stealing. He said that it was a very complicated busi ness and differed totally from the vulgar business of stealing things other than chickens. Preferences to railroad authorities as "experts" was in Vance s opinion as though chicken stealers should insist that one of their number,- Bill - Sykes, for - example. should be consulted by the represent atives of the people betore laws were passed on the subject of chicken stealing, because Bill Sykea thorough ly understood the subject ;sBul sykea bad been in the business tor torty years and could tell an old hen from a pullet by starlight in the loftiast apple tree in tha tarm yard.. .There, was m vance s opinion oae great mystery about the railroad business and that was the meek endurance and long suffering patience of the Ameri can people. The claims of Vahders but, Jay Gould, Albert Fink, et td omhe genus to having cheapened the - t - . price oi commodities . oy rauroau transportation were claims that prop erly belonged to science and not to theLparties named. As well might a sieve claim credit tor letting water pass througn it. There was. not much credit to be given to people who said "the public be damned The Cullom, bill was the direct proge ny of the circumlocution office and would result in nothing.

The general debate upon the bin was narticioated in by Breckenridge, of Arkansas, Ochiltree, Stone,- oi Massachusetts, Washburn, of Minne sota, Hepburn, ot lowa, ana ts unston, of Kansas. After the debate closed the hrst section of the bill was read. Reed, of Maine, made a verbal amendment for the purpose Of can ine attention of the committee to the fact that nearly all the time devoted to general debate; had been consumed hv the friends of the bill. O'Neill, of Missouri, expressed his gratitude that the chairman of the committee on rivers and harbors had been gracious enough to allow mem bers to print their speeches in the Record-. He had not been able to secure time to-make his speech, but he could at least express his views by making motions to strike out the last wora. He proposed at every stage of the bill to offer that amendment until his views regarding the river and harbor improvement were impressed on this committee. (Laugnter.) lie naa tne rieht under the rules, and fortunate ly he had the disposition to see that his rights were preserved in this re spect. He criticized the appropria tion for the Mississippi river, in that onlv f 600.000 was appropriated for improvements between its sources and the Ohio river. That was not a fair share of the pork- (Laughter.) If the Mississippi river had got to carry throueh the gigantic scheme the com mittee should have been a little more liberaL He was of the opinion that if the committee had allowed him to go before them it would have realized that it did not understand this ques tion. Let there be a little common sense applied to the consideration of the bill if for only a few minutes; Every sane' man wanted the Missis sippi river improved, and between the Illinois and Ohio rivers were grouped the most serious obstructions to tne commerce ot tne iaississippi Valley. The "engineers who had ex amined the matter stated that it would take at least f L0,000,ooo to re move these obstructions and establish a uniform depth of nine feet. -With a miserly, beggarly appropriation of $400,000 a year, how long would it be before there was water there? Con gress was supposed to be legislating for this ereneration . and not tor noes terity. " The improvements between the Illinois and Ohio rivers could and should be completed within four vaars. and the people be ! given the benefit of cheap transportation. Un less the river and committee ; would agree to propose a divide when it came to appropriating for the Missis sippi he, in - the language of Polo, would kick.
