THE FINANCIAL SUCCESS OF
THE CHESAPEAKE d OHIO
ROAD

We have received from the banking firm
of Fisk & Hatch of New York, their ap
nnal presentation of the condition of the
Chesapeake & Ohio road, issued for the in
formation of holders of securities in that
nov gigantic corporation. 1t is most
satisfactory one. The company is now
tran ,orting over its own lines to the sea-
board, passengers and freight from Gin
cinnati, Louisville, Memphis and Lexing-
ton and the country tributary to those
points. In the eleven months of the clos
ing year the freight earnings have in
creased $I5S, 900. The total earnings for
the time above named show an increase
over the year before of S647 900 net, and
upon this basis it is estimated that the
net earnings for 1888 will be 81 500, 000.-
The total interest charges on the entire
bonded debt of the company, including
those on the bonds issued for the Newport
News and other improvements will require
net earnings of So, 100000 and the rapid
increase of traffic over the company lines
indicates that but short time will elapse
before the resources of the corporation
will be even with that amount. The in
terest on the Purchase Money B )nds, seri-
es A, has always been paid in money and
the bonds of series B, now paying two
thirds in money and one-third in First
Preferred stock on the next two coupons

Ex-senator Randolph, OF New Jersey, is
quoted as saying that ex-senator Melon

nomination for President in 's4, and that

Senator Malone ard Senator Cameron
had conversation in the Senate chamber
of nearly an hour few days ago. Misery

The Republicans in Congress are SO
frightened since the great national spank

voted TO take no Christmas holiday. and
adopted a resolution fining any member

For frigid GOODNESS, exceeding that of
the late cold snap, commend us to Sena
tor Hoar, of Massachusetts. In discuss
ng the Civil Service Reform bill in the
senate last week, that Senator announced
that the Democratic party should ''certi-
fly its patriotism and its fitness to take
charge of the Government" by pledg-
ing itself in advance not to disturb the
Republican Office holders. In view of the
causes for which appointments to federal
office have, in the main, been made for the
last twenty years, aud, more especially
since the Malone movement in Virginia.
and of the further fact that under the ex.
elusive appointment of Republicans sys-
tenn, that party has managed to institute
the most corrupt era ever known in
the history of this government, the
proposition of Senator Hoar to retain
alI Of these very men in control of the
national administration of affairs must
strike all those Of both parties, who neither
All nor expect to fill federal offices. as alb
surd to the last degree. The majority of
the voters Of the United States as shown
in the votes of Hayes and Garfield, are
opposed to the Republican party; the still
later election of 1882 has shown that TWEEN
ty-five out of thirty eight States are Dem
oeratic; the popular branch of Congress
is opposed to the Republican party by a
large majority, and in the face Of all this
a proposition to seal into all the offices of
the nation fer life as Office holders, exclu-
sively Republicans, is one which we sup
pose will be received with little favor
outside of Senator Hoar's ring of Stall
warts.

The political anxious bench is so full of
Republican mourners and their cries of re-
pentance and promises of reform are so
loud that suspicion of their senuineness
is aroused. Those who read the last message
of President Arthur, the chief of sinners
urging civil service reform, were some
what surprised that in addition to preach
ing 1t to Congress he had not commenced
the practice of it, being fully empowered
by already existing laws to do 80. Instead
Of that he is loudly protesting re-
pentance and quietly pursuing his old plan
Since writing his message he has turned
out Collector Smith of Bangor to give
place to one of Senator Hale's supporters;
has ag hin sent to the Senate the name OF
the once rejected postmaster at Utica, and
has removed the postmaster at Grand
Rapids to make room for the friend" OF
a congressman. After all. there appears
as little sincerity in Arthur as in the
rest of the trembling Stalwarts, whose tenn
porary conviction of their wrongs against
the country appears to be only bending
under the storm that passed over them in
November.
