THE CAMPAIGN AGAINST ERIE.
Grant and Sickies Overthrow the Corrupt
Ring.

/
! The overthrow of the corrupt Erie Ring
that has stolen S51 ,OOO, 600 from the stock
holders of the road is a triumph of reform
second only to that over Tammany. Gen
eral Siclles, in the employ of the honest
stockholders of the road, was the prime
mover in the opposition to Jay Gould and
Tweed. After having repeatedly declined
all fees to attempt its overthrow, he at last,
in 1871, undertook the work. Here is his
account of when he began the work why
he began it, and how he accomplished it:
"On the 1st of December, however,
when had occasion to return to the Unit
ed States, I met in Paris the principal rep
resentative of the foreign stockholders,
outside of the Heath and Raphael combi-
nation. l advised them as to what [
thought they could do, but did not then
undertake anything, not knowing how
much time l shonld have, and not feeling
at liberty to take such responsibility.
"On reaching Washington J. laid the
matter before the President, and suggested
that it had public importance in its re-
lations to the national credit, and to all
American enterprises requiring capital
from Europe in fact it was intimately
connected with the development of the re-
sources of our country. l told him the in
terest | felt in the matter as a New York
er, and the modification every American
Minister was compelled to feel at the re-.
proaches constantly thrown in his face by
reason of the degradation of our Legisla-
ture in the interest of rings, cabals and
swindlers. Our name has been discredited
everywhere on this account, and three
fourths of the renown and character gain
ed by the war has since been discounted
by these phases of our politics.
:" l presented all these considerations to
the President, and asked him to let me
stay here three months and see if I could
not upset this Erie Ring and put the man
agement of the road in the hands of such
men as would inspire confidence among
these whose confidence we sought. The
President said, TRY it; you can have the
three months He also promised me all
the help he could give me consistently,
and he has given it, and without his aid /
could not have succeeded. After this in
terview with the President, and not till
then, undertook this matter / asked for
three months and the work has been ac-
compIished, and | have twelve days left.
1.-The influence of this change will be
felt in both continents. In England it
will not only restore confidence in the
credit of this country, but will tend to
create more friendly feeling toward lis
than has recently existed"

That Scrofula, by whatever name designated, is the
result of deposits from the blood induced or caused by
