The Democratic Platform VS..
Tariff.

Mr.. EDITOR The struggle has
commenced, and the present is the
proper time to consider for whom we
shall we cast our votes at the coming
election. Both platforms are before
us and we are at liberty to choose
either for our personal standard d.
Doubtless during the campaign both
platforms will be closely scrutinized,
and undergo severe criticisms. 1t is
already evident both contain errors,
which, las usual in our celebrated
campaigns will be magnifed and
shown us in the darkest colors. Among
the working classes the Tariff will OBJ
tain the most attention, while, among
our capitalists, resumption of specie
payments will be the favorite ques-
ton. The St. Louis convention would
have us believe that the tariff is, in
plain words, nuisance. Is that true
I doubt it. Abolish the present tariff
and, in my view, it will close our
rolling mills, furnaces, &c. Belgium,
AID other European countries, would
supply our iron markets with iron
cheaper than it could be manufactured
in the United States and keep the
laboring class above want. And still
our friends and neighbors would have
us believe that the tariff is nuisance.
Our Democratic brothers will have to
explain this section in particular, or
they will suffer another overthrow
next November.

THE MINING JOURNAL
FRosTBURG, ND, JULY Is, 1875.

The amount of work accomplished
for Allegany county at the last session
of the Legislature is interesting read
ing. The most important bill was
engineered by Garrett county repre-
sentative We don't know precisely
how the dog tax slipped through, or
how a few other minor acts were
passed. But some property owners
will be delighted to learn that they
are held responsible by chapter 80,
for the water used by their tenants.
The Water Company has thus the
privilege Of transferring its bad rents
to the landlords for collection, and
the latter have a nice job to do for
nothing, in addition to the pleasure of
getting their own dues these severely
hard times. If this sort of thing could
60 on, landlords might be made liable
for any obligations tenants contract,
to any and everybody who could
make his own business speciality Of
his legislative work.
However, the landlord seems to
have his remedy in shutting off
the water after due notice of
liability in which case the Water
Company saves its money in the water
that remains in the reservoir. So
that when the Company can't get
money, it is at least sure of the
water.

THE Ne,cs thinks the project of an
additional railroad from Cumberland
to the coal region should not be re
garded just now wholly in the light
of discovery. This is not new sub
ject. One or more surveys of a route
have been made, and the proprosition
has received no little consideration in
the past" The Ne,cs is correct. This
matter was fully discussed by all the
county papers several years ago. If
nothing more comes of it now than
then, those folks who have found a
mares nest would do we'll to leave

the right to bid and buy, A proprie-

DURING recent visit to the Valley
of Virginia the evidences of thrift
were visible on all sides. A large
acreage Of wheat has been harvested,
the yield turning out handsomel y both
in quantity and quality. The crops
of oats, rye and hay, are large and
good, and, with propitious season,
the growing corn will develop an I'M
precedented product. In the Blue
Ridge grazing region of Warren and
Fauquier counties, hundreds of fat
cattle are browsing ION thousand
hills" together with scores of calves
and yearlings coming on for succeed
ing years. Fruit promises an abund-
ant harvest. Intelligence from other
portions Of the state indicates similar
prosperous growth. With the recent
discoveries of iron and coal and the
projects on foot to develop them, and
with fair returns for the capital and
labor invested, the Old Dominion en-
joys a cheering prospect.
