-jmember of Parliament and a journalist

fl question of Government ownership in the current number of theCanadia'i Magazine

1 colonies and New Zealand nearly all the

llrailways as well as the telegraph lines _ are owned by the State. In Germany the

‘same rule prevails, and the same in

no Government railways the Government ` owns and manages the telegraph system

as an essential part of the postal service.

Mr. Richa.rdson`s contention is that In

each of these cases State ownership hives

_ service at less cost than is obtained in countries where the railways are ex- ‘ clusively owned by companies. 1

In the lirst place it is argued that Gov-

ernments can borrow money at a lower rate of interest than companies and hence , can construct railways more cheaply. The

£l3f),000,000 to build and equip, or $48,930 per miie. in the United series. where

the company system prevails exclusively,

the average cost per mile was $56,715, or 16 per cent more than in Australia. The Australian railways already pay about 3 per cent on their cost, and will pay better,

as the country becomes more thickly set-

these roads carries interest at 32 per cent, while the money borrowed to build Am'

erican roads pays an average rate of 5 per cent. Here we have in the case 'of the company roads a much higher first cost and a much higher rate of interest which

the traffic must pay. ~ _ f

When he comes to the German and

Hungarian railways an even stronger case is maile out. The cost of the State railways in Germany has been 2.550 mil- lions of dollars and the net proceeds in 1895 was 127 millions of dollars, equal to tive per cent on the cost. The German

Government own 25,400 niiles of railway, or 90 per cent of the total mileage. About ' 20,(l)0 miles have been built within 20

years past. German railways have a. low tariff rate which has powerfully aided the industrial and commercial development of the country. The ordinary 'freight charge is $1.50 for carrying one ton of freight 100
