In some cases, it is true, competing lines have become united under one corporation, and fares have been somewhat increased ; but the general, grand result, has been the establishment of a system of railway communication, the like of which the sun has never looked upon. And if this evil be apprehended, what can be easier than for the Legislature to fix the maximum of fares which shall be charged ? In truth, Mr. Chairman, all the arguments of my learned brother, respecting com- petition, are ent...irely unworthy of him, and — were they from any other source — unworthy of serious notice. Why, sir, our State map beams and sparkles, like the firmament, with competing lines.
And I join issue with my brother, in his statement that it would be bad policy in the State to gi'ant this charter. Bad policy to meet a popular demand by a legislative sup- ply ? We have shown that railroads were made for the jjeople, as the Sabbath is made for man, not the people for the railroads ; and I will only say — replying to tlie gentle- man — that the bad policy would lie in refusing this apj)li- cation.
