The little light thrown on the telephone business, as to the cost of operating exchanges, nearly always comes from managers of companies, and whenever legislative committees or subscribers ask for lower rates, they are promptly met with a prepared statement showing actual loss at any given point. The letter, which is now in our poaiession, a copy of which we give herewith, shows the other side of the balance sheet. It is from a gentleman, who is now an official and a mem-, ber of the Executive Committee of the Central Union, and shows a little glimp-e into the real profits of the telephone busi ness. Net earning of 01 iercent. to receipts is certainly good business, and stock at a premium of 325 does not look at all bearish. Tbe rates charged in Detroit are about the same as in Indianapolis. Chk aoo, Juue lud. Dear Sir I notice that your syndicate is buying considerable Western telephone property, and think, providing von desire to do so. I can ar

range a negotiation whereby you will come into possession of the lareett an i best piece of teiephone property in the United states. I refer to the State of Michigan. I and my friends own the entire capital stock of the Michigan Bell Telephone Company, which controls all of the ex-tra territorial business in that State, and all but about 37 per cent, of the capital stock of the Telephone and Telegraph Construction Comp ay. Our stock is all pooled and held by five Trustees. The capital stock of these companies has never been incrersed since their first organization, and as you will observe, is very low, aud the earuiu correspondingly large, The Telephone and Telegrah Const ructioa Company Is now earning between $ :J,000 and $:'i.0 per quarter, and the Michigan Bell is doing a business ol about 53,000 per month at the preseu: true, with net eami:i?s ot 61 per cent, to receipts. As we have about l.OtX) miles of lines now tin ier construction, this will be very largely Increased and our General Manager, Mr. Jackson, taten that by the end of July we will be doing H.njj month on these line. As it is entirely outside of our other probities, and only a few ol na interested in it, I am undet' the impression that lean bring about a sitle to your syndicate on a basis of $25 for tbe stock of the Telephone and Telegraph Construction Company which we hold, and $-'75 for the stock of tbe Michigan Bell company. The par value of tliese Michigan stocks is $.'.". hence f figure them at txi. -J j aud lö-s.75 in making the estimated cost of " the purchase: Capital Telephone and Telegraph Construction Company SV.. 03 Capital Micbigau Bell Telephone Com pany.. rrfl.f) TO Western I'nion holds 7.4::0 shares of Telephone and Telegraph Construction Company.

THE GREAT CORRUPTION. The financial results of the war showed to the men whom the American people had placed in charge of its destiny what a mine of wealth lay hidden in its strength. These men immediately began to devise mean3 of workiDg it, and for twenty-five years the national official powers have been constrained in the single direction of turning the American people into a gigantic machine for turning out dollars in a steady stream into a few great reservoirs. Tbe machine thus devised is known as indirect taxation, and the reservoirs are. known as monopoly; and manopoly is well defined by the word tariff, its great progenitor. At this moment there ooes not appear the slightest sign of relief. A species of little, unclean partisanship mle3 supreme; and politicians fiddle while the country slowly drags into the ways of suffering or dry rot, or burns in riot and lawlessness. Personal aggrandizement has usurped statesmanship, and bribery and corruption seem to have taken the place of patriotism. Legislation, from being directed with the idea of the greatest good to the greatest number, has reversed into a process that makes the many hewers of wood and drawers of water. When the honest element of Congress attempts legislation for relief or of retreat back upon the cardinal principles of Democratic institutions of equitable taxation, some miserable pretext Is raised, some trivial thing is interposed, before which all the country must wait while the National Legislation higgles over the price for which it will undertake to sell its influence, like Judas selling the life of the Master. There are honest men there, vainly trying to stem the tide of disgrace aud ruin, but their voices are eclipsed in the din of the shambles to which our national temple has been converted. Measures of finance must be laid aside because they are counter to the wishes of Wall street. Measures of relief from ia enormous load of taxation must be deferred to the wishes of sugar planters, coal syndicates, iron manufacturers, and down through the host of special privileges that have overgrown our institutions like poisonous jreeda, till they have stifled all natural, healthful growths, and poisoned the air with corruption, and greed, and feverish, hast in money

getting at tbe cost of human sentiment, of human Lappiness of that great mass t) whom nature has djoied the possibility of getting iicb.and to whom theae noisome laws have proven veritable harpies. We condemn strikers for going beyand the tight aod the Law, and the safety of society demands that we condemn. But they are not the sole examples of lawlessness that we mu-st condemn. They are admoeitions that there must be an end of political jobbery, political jugglery and political degradation of our democratic institution?. They are admonitions from a patient people, that seem to, have been forgotten in ths strife for power, for' privilege and for money, by those, in high places, that an end must come to it, and that those entrusted with the responsibility of leading this people, and the whole people on its natural path of life, prosperity, and the pursuit of happiness, must not longer postpone their mission, and which requires bat honesty to make successful. On All these great questions our Congress is in hopeless auarchy. Office, office, office is the alpha and omega that inspires our politicians from the time they graduate from the saloons till they enfer the portals of the House aud Senate chambers. Whether the bribe be whisky that steals the sense of I arm from some poorwretcb, or whether tt be some valuable franchise, stealing away theOOd3 and household gods of defenceleas peopie, it is all one and the same, office upon office, builded up on a foundation of bribe upon bribe. But whence the cure? It can only come from a virtuous public, that is really at heart sound, concentrating its indignation upon monopoly that is builded upon bribes, upon politicians tbat are builded with bribes, and upon a system of bribes, and bribery that could not exist, because the motive would be wanting, if that great growth of special privilege, favoritism, monopoly, that progenitor of bribery the tariff were destroyed. Its root is injustice, its trunk bribery, its branches corruption, and its fiuit, ruin. It is the modern by Ira. requiring another Hercule.

We call special attention to tr ; terms of six Weekly Sentinels for S5; twelve for SIO. DODGING A GR3AT ISSUE. The Unlimited Coinage bill will not become a law this iession, at least, and the situation if likely to be left exactly where it has been, that is, a nullification of bi-met-talisni. Intrinsically it was a bill for the benefit of the middle classes, who constitute the great majority of the American people. The great eapilalist who realizes from his money inveitment, and the poor working rxaa who has nothing but his labor, perhaps is interested in having his money in the highest-priced metal. But the holders of property of whatever kind, and the debtors on our farms and in our cities, upon whose prosperity is dependent the prosperity of labor, and eventually the prosperity of capital, can only view the present relation of money value to property value a future of distress. And haw cau it be otherwise? The following opinion of a prominent railroad attorney puts the ultimate status of the question in its true light: With the exception of New York and the New England States, 90 per cent, of the railroad mileage in the country must necessarily pass through bankruptcy sooner or latter, so heavy are their bonded depts. Under the most favorable conditions these roads could not continue to run and pay the interest on so heavy a bonded indebtedness. The tendency was to lower passenger and to lower freight rates, and the business of the railroads did not increase in proportion to the reductions in rates from year to year, consequently tne revenue each year shows a steady falling off. In years past this decrease in revenue had been partiaily met by reducing the wages of the employes, and the last year or two by expending as little money in improving road-beds and equipments as the caäe would admit, but the bottom has been reached in these directions, and deficits would needs be met from other sources, either through refunding schemes or some character of reorganization through which bonded d-bts could be cut down nearer to the real valuation of the property. This means, in most caes, bankruptcy. This is exactly the status of every species of property that was created upon the higher plane of value than the present value of money gold represents. Without relief, without currency expansion that will be tantamount to the difference, universal bankruptcy in as certain in the case of a mortgaged farm, mortgaged house, or mortgaged plant or mortgaged stock of goods, a it is with mortgaged railroads. There are some sins of omission that involve enormous consequences, and the forcible reduction of the values of such great quantities of property is one of them. The Weekly Sentinel and the American Ag. rirulturist for S3, only 50 cents more than the price of the Agriculturist. THE WHEAT PROSPECT. The condition of winter wheat now fore shadows, with an average of spring wheat the same as last year, a crop of 500,006,000 bushels. Last year our total crop was 360,000,000, yet we will have left over, leaving out an immediate contingency of a great foreign war, somewhere near to 40,000,000, or a total of 5t0,000 000. Our total exports of wheat and flour reduced to wheat for nine months end ing March 31 were 57,000,000, and the same ratio till Juni 31 will raise the figure to 81,000,000 bushels as the year's total export in flour and wheat. We will need for home consumption during the next crop year 33,000,000. If to this is added the same rate of export for the coming year we will require for all purposes 411,000,000 bushels, and have a surplus of 129,000,000 bushels. It may readily be seen that scarcely any probable circumstances will occur to raise the wheat industry from its lethargy. The Indian crop harvested in January was up to average, while that country has large stocks of last year's held over. The crop in Europe was good last year, and so far promises well for this. Ilussia also k&s a large stock of last year to offer, when navi gation of her Northern ports opens. The speculative quantities in this estimate are the acreage of spring wheat, possible damage before harvest, and war prospects. Of the first there is little likelihood that the acreage will be reduced, owing to the dependence of the spring wheat state upon wheat produc tion. The second, of course, is altogether undeterminable, while the third la an even chance. . But even if war did occur, it would not affect tbe American market, unless it embargoed the Russian ports and the Suez Canal; anderen then the Russian supply would reach Europe through Germany and Awtrii; 0r, If UiM powwi wer oppotfl to

Ilcssia. it would be a localised war, and it would only affect the Kassian supply. Only a general war, lasting for a considerable period, would cut oü Europe from Russia and India and cause her to depend upon oarselves. But in such case we might be drawn into it ourselves, in which rase ships from our ports would be subjected to the same snrveilance as they would from the ports of our competitors. Altogether the speculative chances are decidedly opposed to the wheat industry, based upon nominal supplies and conditions. The chances in favor of betterment are so abnormal as only to be viewed as a sort of drown iDg man's hope, for we will ftave 210,000,000 ot bushels to sell, or nearly three times as much as we have sold in a year past, and it will have to be a very curious combination of adverse circumstances for Europe ard the West Indias to require so much in tbe face of the rapidly increasing wheat acreage in South America, Australia, India, North Africa and in Russia, especially at the continent of Europe, with an average crop, nearly produces its own wants.

The Sentinel and the Farm Guide for 91.35. THE EAST ST. LOUIS HORROR. It may be taken as absolute truth that the instigators of violence in times of confusion are greatly in the minority of the population. Violence is contrary to the expressed injunctions of labor unions, and the Knights of Labor have made peaceful means of overcoming difficulties between employer and employe a ' cardinal principle. With such unanimous recognition of a self-apparent necessity for social order and progriss through peaceful evolution of habits and ideas, we can only consider the laxity of authorities in failing to provide effectual means of preserving the peace as culpable to a h'gh degree. It does not follow, in case of a contest or a strike between employers and employes, thai in order to show sympathy for the cause of labor, unorder and riot should be permitted, or proper measures not taken to prevent any riotous demonstration. It was shown in the destruction of life at East St. Louis a it was shown in the riot at Pittsburg, that the rioters were roughs rather than actual strikers. True, strikes provide the occasion for riots, because they unsettle the minds and relations of men, and their existence is primarily the cause of a riot. But it is so only in an inductive sense, and this induction would not exist were the authorities rigidly to draw the line upon the law, and when an emergency is foreshadowed by any extensive strike to make preparations to reI re ss violations of the law, and with force sufficient to ;rirf such occasions as culminate in scenes like that at East St. Lou;s on Friday. Were it done, and done promptly, and with cool-healed disciplined men, under cool-headed and disciplined officers, who would have discretion and coolness enough not to fire at the first alarm, nor to get panic stricken because some hooting is done by an excited crowd, such terrible scenes would not occur. No citizen should suffer arrest or be placed under a liability to be Dunisbed or shot until he is caught in an act of law-breaking. Any mere condition that places him in a positim where he may break the law should not be held, but it is the duty of the authorities to be in position to promptly suppress any man or any set of men the moment he or they attempt an overt act of actual law-l reaktng, and !t should be done at the beginning and continued to the end. Our authorities allow things to proceed and admit the riff-raff of society, that have no other end or aim but plunder, and who are not under even the discipline of a trade's union. to do about as it pleases until in some hasty, nervous act the authorities- strikeout quite as blindly and recklessly as the mob it at tempts to suppress. Men have a 'right to or ganize and they have a right to strike, and they have a right to impose such terms as they can. But they have not a right, nor do they as bodies claim such a right, to do this in a way that is in violation of law, and it is the business of the authorities to see that neither the passion of strikers nor the passion of the riff-raft that come to the surface on any occasion of excitement, be allowed to culminate in law violation. The trouble always has been that where the law is executed at such times it is done in equal passion and recklessness. The strikers are passionate, and the passion leads to violence. The railroads are passionate, and the passion calls for blood, until when blcod is shed it is shed with the unreasoning fury of a mob. and the blood of the innocent is shed. A company of regulars would have pushed the meb back and dispersed it, and would not have fired a shot unless the gathering was known to be hostile, and. bent upon actual warfare. In fact, a small display, backed up with the knowledge that violation of the law would certainly lead to punishment, would prevent the occasion for a use of the force behind it. Tbe world is in a kind ot confusion, and b drifting into a future surrounded on all sides with uncertainty. Temperance b demanded of all. Order and justice must be preserved until the law, the proper arbiter of human quarrels, builds itself upon the best results attainable, and what those are only the future can determine, but which without order can only have one anarchy. GOOD IN ALL. There is probably no better proof of the beneficence of the Creator than the fact that He has made nothing that has not good service in it at some time or in some conditions. Flies clean away feculent matter that would breed disease. Fishing worms plough up sterile subsoil into fertility. Darwin says toads are the best of guardians of gardens when worms are about. The venom of a rattlesnake is said to be an effective medicine In some cases, and its oil a remedy for rheumatism. Even a mugwump has his use as a warning against political emasculation. But as fully as these and other instances of omniscient goodness proved the rule of the Creator's indisposition to make anything wholly useless, the dude has been a standing paradox in the way of absolute faith.. What earthly or any other good can there be in these animated tailors' signs? Well, there is sometimes something that excuses their general uselessness and justifies their existence. In the recent sinking of the Oregon there were two dudes on board conspicuous for variety of breeches and neckties and painful frequency of chwgf, wuo m said to bT0. beipsd th

women and children tr.an ths wreck wi.h cooioesa aal courage wholly uneapeted. So, too, it happened, years ago. tbat the dandy officers of the English Guards1, who teemed to be fit for nothing but t&aaeb for ladies' apron strings, were among the daring BDi reckless of the fighters at Waterloo, and so changed the contemptuous feelings of their comrades, that the latter swore they would never sneer at a dandy again. It Is a conclusive proof, to our thinkin of theinSuite goodness of the Creator, thut He has made even a dude capable of good service occasionally. It is much les3 difficult to make the "wrath of man praise him" than to make the fatuity and feebleness ol an imitation of a man to praise hfm by developing under suitable conditions into a real man.

StAToa VooRtfTtB struck the key-note in tbe debate on the Edmunds resolution when he said: The .resolutions now before the Senate constituted a trivial and inconsequential measure compared to the stardy aad straightforward remedy provided by the Constitution for the . punishment of a public oihciai wilfully recreant and disobedient to the law. These resolutions were simply intended to keep Republicans in olttce. There was nothing more certain, however, than that the people understood the object. A majority of the Senate had turned aside from the legitimate business, of legislation. Labor all over the country was overtaxed and scantily paid by reason of long standing vicious legislation. Human suffering was wringing its hands and weeping in many parts of the country in destitution from want of employment and proper remuneration. Great corporations were overshadowing the land and absorbing the powers of the State and the Nation, grinding the flesh and biod of mn and women into their huge and massive hoppers. American commerce no longar had a ship on the high seas. ThegreU questions of taxation and finance were pressing for attention. But from- all these great and pressing subjects we must tuni aide to discuss this question raised by the iS?nator from Vermont, It was thrust into ouc councils to obstruct lae business of the country in favor of a lot of Republican office-hotu-ers. The President, Senator Voorhees said, was holding his great office in trust for tue people, and was not warranted in abandoning the rights of the Presidential oil ice In favor of any other branch of the Goverameut. Our esteemed Senator might have-ote further and added that Congress, a3 a whole, has turned as de from its legitimate buäine?s for years to engage in unseemly party quarrels to the neglect of any wholesome legislation, until great measures for the public good are almost unknown to the balls of Congress, and narrow, little, mean partisanship and personal aggrandizement ha usurped the high place of broad enlightened statesmanship, and of all the small unclean schemes that ' have been dragged into either branch of Congress, the late one of Senator Edmunds is the smallest. It had been well said that it does not embody a solitary principle of government worthy of attention, but is simply an attempt to hold a few paltry offices. A siecies of little, mean, unclean partisanship rules supreme, while the vast labor and commercial interests of the country are suffering as never known before, to this generation.

Raskin. Donatio parties for the pastor, as a general thing, are almost an insult to that worthy citizen. It will be found that in nine cases out of ten the pastor, who b supposed to be overweighed with, gratitude because he b presented with a bushel of turnips and a loaf of brown bread, has not been paid more than half his salary, and is in arrears for rent. Pay the pastor a live-and-let-live salary, and let him purchase his own turnips. Elgin (Ilk) Saturday Evening. La bob reform agitators spend much breath and ink in trying to convince workingmen that fortunes are generally obtained through fraud, chicanery, or "sharp practices." That some fortunes have been obtained in this way is altogether likely. A much larger number, however, have been obtained by taking great risks, by appreciating the value of inventions and discoveries that most persons decided were not worth anything, by accident, or by the exercise of superior ability In conducting old lines of business.
