We are informed by gentleman who
is quite intimate with Mr.. BECKER, and
who sustains official relations to the
Pittsburgh, Wheeling and Kentucky
road, of which Mr.. B. is engineer, that
the report in the Intelhgsncer OF yester-
day morning as to what Mr.. BECKER
said concerning the Wheeling and
Lake Erie railroad is in all probability
wholly untrue and made Of whole cloth.
But if Mr.. BECKER made such state
ment, which we do not believe, it can
have no weight in the issue now before
our people, for it is easy enough to see
that IL he can prevent the coming
Of the Wheeling and Lake Erie road to
the city, and thus defeat the bridge, the
Cleveland and Pittsburgh road will be
compelled to cross at Steubenville and
come over Mr.. BEcKER's road to our
city. We are also authorized by Presi-
dent WOOD to say that no such propo-
sition was ever made by his company
70 Col. Soorr as that mentioned in
the Intelliseacer. 1t is q matter
of surprise to us that the
editor OF that paper should re-
fuse to inform himself as to the &C
tual condition Of the Wheeling and
Lake Erie road when opportunity
after opportunity has been offered to
him, and should at the same time seize
the remarks Of the street and make
them the basis of an unfair editorial
attack on that road. 1t is the worst
case of editorial decentralization and
dyspepsia we ever knew. i"

In slluding to the action Of the Rad
ical delegates from Kansas to the Phil.
adelphia Convention, the Omaha Herald
says they will do the bidding of the
Federal officials Of the State, who are
the tools of General GRANT, and then
will be sent home by rail like other
baggage. Slavery in the South is abol-
ished, but political bondage is but
fairly insugurated in the North, and
no Africans in the cotton fields were
more absolutely the property Of their
masters than are, to-day, the army of
Federal officials, all over the Union,
the chattels and sbject serfs Of their
owner and overseer. U. s. GRANT"

THE ANSWER.
SANDUsKY, May 90, 1872.
Il. II. Cochran, Esq.,:
. DEAR SIR-Yours of the 18th is at
hand. 1 am not quite certain who the
prominent citizen of our city is." Mr..
II. E. o. Hagan stated that he recently
visited Wheeling and found no one
there who favored the project Of the
Wheeling road Gas we term the Wheel
ing and Lake Erie railroad.)
If he is the person 1t may be suffi>
Gent to say of MIN. that he is not
citizen of Sandusky but simply has a
business establishment here, and for
some undesirable reason has been an out
spoken enemy of the Wheeling road
from the beginning.
Since receiving your letter I have
cony ersed with several persons on the
subject Of this road, among them
Messrs. West, of the West House;
DR.. Massey, President of our City
Council; Z. Merry. our County Auditor;
John Carr, a prominent builder and
contractor; DR.. Stanley, and Voltaire
Scott, all OF whom unite in saying the
aid can be voted for the road.
And for myself, / entertain no doubt
of our ability to do our full share in
this matter.
wish further to say, that we have
some among us that would divide the
FIVE per cent on the valuation Of our
property which, by the law, we
are allowed to raise, between this
and another railroad enterprise.
One reason for our delay in this mats
ter is this, that in December last a
movement was begun to annex the
whole of the township of Portland to
our city. That annexation has but just
been completed about a week since.
Some further time has been required
by the City Council to divide the an-
nexed territory into wards and voting
precincts, and we now expect the Mayor
at once to issue his call for an election.
l believe the above is fair state
ment Of the public sentiment, as we'll
as the progress We have made in the
matter OF the railroad.
