such a rule would follow unrestricted

the majority there can be no doubht.
But it may be said that in the thirty
years which" have passed sln.ce the re
construction period ended the negro has
become better qualified for self-government

fortunately there Is no evidence of this.

cording to the declaration of Governor
Chamberlain, a Republican governor of
that State, when h succeeded Moses

appointment who could neither read

some of the property in the south is
owned bynortherners. there is a strong
sentiment In that section aHso in favor

And whatever may be said of dis
franchisement of negroes by such con
stitutional devices it is far more de

truth and fair dealing, to have this in
mind.
In the first place, it is a recognized
fact that the amendments conferring
IoUUca! rights upon the negroes were
never regul;irly adopted by three
fourths of the States, as the constitu
tion renulres. Thy were in fact forced
.upon the country by the military pow
er and against the will of the people.
A law so enacted will never receive
the willing obedience of even the most

The negroes issued $14.000.XH of bonds
to aid railroad construction. It was all
spent and not one mile of railroad was
built. S."hol fund securities were sold

AMERICAN AND
BRITISH RAILWAYS
In a second article on American rail
ways the London Times ooints out
many differences "between the English
and the American systems. The most
striking of these differences, it says,
is to be found in the respective mile
age or the two countries. The total
length of completed railways in the
Tinted States on December 31. 1901,
was 19S.7S7 miles, whereas the length
of line open for traffic in the United

The longest railway system under
the control of a single company in
Great Britain is the Great "Western
which represtnts 2.66 miles. The next
longest is the London ond Northwest
ern, with 1.937 miles, and this is fol
lowed by the Northwestern, with 1,6-'i4
;the Midland, with 1,441. and the
Great Kastern. with 1.109 miles. But
in the United States the-Pennsylvania
Railroad Company and the New York
Central ana - Hudson River Railroad
Company each control over 10,000 miles
of railways. There are twenty-eight
systems . which own and control over
2.000 miles each, and forty-nine
mileage of over 1H) each,
the mileage of th Ameri
can railways is greatly in excess of
tha tof the British railways, the den
sits of passenger traffic in Great Brit
ain Is far greater than that of the
United States, for, whereas in 1900 the
number of nassengers carried (exclu
sive of reason tir-ket holders) was 1,
142.oiO,r.00 in the case of the British rail
ways, it was only ".76,000,000 for those
of the United States, though the length
of railroad there is niue times that in
Great Britain.
In Great , Britain the railway com
panies must provide for a prodigious
number of people traveling short dis
tances, while they stretch from Lon
don to Glasgow or Edinburgh as a
long distance Journey. In the
United States there are. fewer pas
sengers, but far longer journeys. The
British comoanies druv.- the larger pro- !
portion of their reveunes from passen
ger' traffic, whereas in" America the
companies derive their Inrgest in come
from the movement of freisrht.
In" regard to working expenses, it
must be remembered that 1900 and 1301
were record bad years for British rail
ways. Allowing for the slightly larger
number of train miles run in 19C1 thin
in 1S99, coal cost the British compa
nies over 2.Sf.V00 more in the former
ij'ear than it would have done had the
j price remained the same' as in 1S99, and
against the disadvantage experienced
through the . increase in the price of
coal there was no adequate - set-off 1n
the form of advanced profits from
business done. On the other hand.
there is the fact that the last two j
years have, been record good years for j
the American rnljways. that their car- j
rying capacity in respect to freight has
been taxed to the uttermost, and that"
their coal bills, in proportion to the
length of their lines and to the amount
of their business, are far below those
of the Knglish comoanies.
QUESTION OF LOCAL. TAATION ..
"The question of local taxation," con
tinues the Times.. "is -another consid
eration not to bejgnored. In 1901. the
railways of the United Kingdom had to
pay in rates nd taxes a sum equal to
no less than 1S0 per mile. - It is diffi
to generalize on this point in regard to
America,, inasmuch as each State
adopts its own methods in the taxa
tion of railways, and the whole matter
is most f-'omolicated. The sum paid
per mile of lino varies, in fact,, from
$11.26 In India Territory to $1,366.32 in
Massachusetts but the average Tor
the whole of the United States is equiv
alent, in English currency," to a little
over 54 per mile of line.
Taking the working expenses as a
whole, thwy amouut to fcj.d per cent,
of gro. earnings. In the' case 'of .the
United States and 63. ner cent, in the
United Kingdom. One point that tells
this mater of working expenses is their
comparatively smaller- number of em
ployes, the total per 100 miles of line
being "548 In the United States as
against 2.635 in the United Kingdom.
Contrasting earnings per ; mile one
get? . these . figures for; the year 1901:
United States, gross, 1,697 per. mile;
net,-531; United Kingdom, gross, 4,8?6;
net. 1.769. . , ; . , '
the "American railways in 1901. at $11,
688,177,9991 say 2,337,635,598 we find
that the net earnings were 104.059,000
say 4.45, or 4 8s., per cent. The total
prejudice and votes capital of the railways, in the United
"The teachings jf Kingdom for the same year (after al
lowing for nominal additions) was 1,
OOS.107,000, and the net earnings were
39.069,000, say 3.87. or 3. 17s. 4d,
per cent. If coal had;remained at the
same. price as in 1899 the net earnings
on English railways would have been
increased to 41,697,000, thus ' yielding,
say, 4.16, or 4 3s. 2d., per cent. If.
in addition to this, rates and taxes
had increased since the year 1891 only j
m the same proportion as the gross
receipts, say, 30 per cent. the amount
payable in that respect, instead of be
919,000. cmfwyp shrdlu cmfwyp mf wy
ing 3,979,000, would have been onjy
2,919,000, a saving of .060,000. Adding
this to the figures given, above, the
net earnings for the year 1901 would
have been increased to 42,027,000, yield
ing, say, 4.26, or 4 us.' 2d'., per cent.
NONYIELDING CAPITAL ...... ..'.'
The amount of capital stock in the
American railways paying no divi
dend at all on June 30,1901, was $2,829,
021.925, or '48.73 per cent, o f the total
amount then outstanding. ; Omitting
equipment trust obligations, the
amount of funded debt 'which paid no
interest was $361,905,202. Of he stock
paying1 dividends, 8.82 per cent, of; the
total amount outstanding paid": from
1 to 4 ner cent.. 13.37 raid from. 4 to
a per ceni., iu.it iaia irom tu o .iJri
cent.; and 6.67 paid from 7 to 8 per cent.
The amount of dividends declared dur
ing the year was $156,735,784, which was,
equivalent to a- dividend of ' 5.2ft pel?
cent, on the amount of stock on which
some dividend was declared.. It is.
however, only during the last year or
two that certain of these companies
which now pay dividends", and espe
cially in the Western States, have been
able to show any profits at all. The
effect of Increased prosperity, however,
is shown by the fact that for the year
j ended June 30, 1902. the dividends of
! essentially the same operating roads
iwere greater by nearly $30,000,000 than
for the previous financial year..
"Commenting mon the operation of
American railways, the Times, gets tne
impression that they are both in ad
vance of their times and two or three
d&cades out of dare. .Hpecial criticism
is made of the grade crossings and the
prfssing of trains through crowded
streets of "populous towns without ade
quate protection for the public. "At
York, a populous Pennsylvania city,"
says the, writer, "where the trains
passed down the centreof an extreme
ly narrow street before, it x-eached the
railway , station, there seemed to be
something peculiarly ; appropriate in
the injunction wjiich.. some one naa
had painted in prominent, letters on a
fence alongside: 'Prepo.re to meet thy
