, and command in market at least forty-two mil- lions of dollars, subject to the payment of the present bonus. The present value of the n^onopoly, therefore, is seven- teen millions of dollars, and this the act proposes to sell for three millions, payable in fifteen annual instalments, of two hundred thousand dollars each. It is not conceivable how the present stockholders can have any claim to the special favor of the government. The present corporation has enjoyed its monopoly during the peri...od stipulated in the original contract. If we must have such a corporation, why should not the government sell out the whole stock, and thus secure to the people the full market value of the privilege^ granted ? Why should not Congress create and sell twenty-eight millions of stock, incorporating the purchasers with all the powers and privileges secured in this act, and putting the pre- mium upon the sales into the treasury ? But this act does not permit competition in the purchase of this monopoly.
