I frequently see the question : “ How will Socialism acquire the railroads? There is not enough money now in the country to buy them.” In anSWer to this, many say, “Oh, we shall simply take them. We ’ve paid for them four times already.” Now I wish to impress upon Socialists the importance of not antagonizing the railroad stockholders by this sort of argument. There is really no need to talk confiscation. We have a for simpler remedy» I am a California lemon grower, and no class in the couptry is more shame- fully robbed by the railroads than we are. They charge us $1.50 per 100 pounds for the fruit that we sell at 50 cents per 100 pounds. Thus, for every day we work for ourselves 'we work three for the railroads. Not only that, they actually carry Italian lamens the same distance for half this rate, so as to undersell us. The Southern Pacific and the Santa Fe work in collusion and their capital is watered to the extent of 400 per cent. The Southern Pacific is capitalized at $80,000 per mile, and the government could build the whole line new for $20,- 000 per mile. Surely everyone can see that the proper thing to do is to build a new line; and let the railroad men keep their road. A double track line from Boston to the Pacific coast can be built for $100,000,000. , There is not the slightest need to talk of confiscation, nor of buying them. The railroads could not object to the people building a road, if we can build a canal ; and the immediate result would be to bring down the freight rates one- half. and the stock exchange values would tumble down at the same rate. And long before the transcontinental line could be finished railway magnates would be glad to dispose of their pro- perty at. cost. This is the solution. Let the people build their own road.â€" F. A. Binnye. Life Ruined by Work. Made old before her time by a tragedy which robbed her of both father and mother and left her to care four small sisters, Bridget Rafferty, after battling for ten years with her misfortunes, ran out of her home in her night clothes yesterday morning and attempted to throw herself into the North river. A policeman caught her just in time and the despairing young woman was taken to Bellevue hospital. Miss Rafferty is an old woman at twenty-four. Her hair is streaked with grey and her face is lined with traces of the hardships which for ten years she has been forced to bear unaided. Her mind gave way under the struggle and she raved in delirium on her cot in the hospital. The young woman lived with her four younger sisters at No. 442 West Forty-sevonth street. The neighbors say they have never seen a nobler ex- ample of self sacrifice and devotion than has been displayed by her in caring for her sisters. At last another one of the girls ob- tained employment, and with three of them at work it looked as if brighter days had come. But it was too late for the girl who for ten years had borne the grinding strain. Bridget grew more and more depressed. She talked of wanting to die. One day she said in a 02. hopeless tone that she believed she would throw herself into the river. The sisters watched her. A little past midnight yesterday, when she thought her sisters were sleep- ing, Bridget stole - out of the house. She was crying, and as she ran she screamed. She ran toward the river. Two of the sisters followed, also in their night dresses. They said that Bridget had accused them of ingratitude when they had suggested that she ought to go to Bellevue. To Bellevue the girl was sent, and there her case was pronounced prac- tically hopelessâ€"New York World. 4» A Word bout on. In these piping times of Coal Oil Johnnies, it is well to look into what makes millionaires of men who haven't enough sense to make a success ofa peanut stand. In the St. Louis Post- Dispatch a writer gives some wonderful statistics regarding the production of oil at Beaumont, Texas. One small district alone can produce ~200.000 bar- rels a day for the next ten years. The 212 companies owning this 200 acres have invested less than $2,500 000, but are capitalized at $100,000.000. If this oil is sold at 5 cents a barrel it will produce $1,000,000 3. year. The writer says that with the most extravagant management the cost of maintenance and operation will not be over 3100.000 3. year. This gives us the cost of oil in tank of fi-cent a barrel, or 1 lOO-ceot a gallon. The cost of refining oil is not. fi-cent a gallon. If the public had dev- eldped the oil fields of Texas it would have invested $2 500,000 in well-dril- ling, perhaps threc times that much in pipe lines and refineries, and could have sold refined oil to its citizens at not over 1 cent a gallon, after adding the cost of transportation on publicly owned rail- roads. As it is. we are skinned of 12 to 20 cents a gallon for oil and gasolene to build up great monopolies. which the people themselves do not like. But they prefer to vote for the old parties- which never benefit them and suffer the ill of monopoly than to vote for the Socialish, who would take the oil busi- ness as a public monopoly and give them oil at 1 cent a gallon. No wonder we have millionaires and powersâ€"Ap- pool to Reason. *0 Women Section Hands. . _ The American working class ~is ap- proaching the condition of the European peasant at such a rapid rate that it takes away the breath, and occasionally grilles our national vanity a severe jolt. The following clippings show what we can expect for our children and moth- ers if the present rule of greed is to continue: - Macon, Mo. June 23.â€"-“ We have three women laborers on the Pcwpaw division of the St. Louis, Memphis & Southeastern,” said James P.‘ Worth- ‘ingtou,” resident engineer, who is here this week on a brief furlough. “It staggered me a bit when I first observ- ed them; but when I saw llle relentless energy with which they biked Overload- ed Wheelbarrows up the dump, my pity went out to the barrows. Instead of being of objects of sympathy, one is rather inclined to envy their \'l-_'01‘OllS health and strength.”â€"K. (I World. Think of it!â€"â€"l68,624 children un- der the age of sixteen are employed in. the mills and factories of this country. In many instances these children are little better than slavos. They are un- derpaid, overworked, and deprived of the necessities of life. God’s puro sun- shine and the many joys which should attend their age. In, slavery days the pickaninnies were allowed to run about the plantation, and were properly hous- ed end fed, and given every opportunity to grow into strong men and women. A change has come over the nation. The want of food lorces the little ones into the factory and workshop as soon as they are able to stand. Amid the noise of' the will they spend their child- hood hours, rcach maturity, and pass into the great beyond without having experienced real happiness, and forever followed by the tear of hunger and. want. Is this not a condition of which the nation can be proud ? How grand our civilization; but. oh! the cost of it. â€"â€"Typoqraphical Journal.
