Compliments to Judge
FrieSner.
A Unanian Gus Choice.

The New Lexington Herald
Democratic organ of Perry, say:
that Judge Friesner is the unan-
imous choice of the Democrat:
of Perry for denomination.
The Lancaster Eagle, the Dem
ocratic organ of Fairfield, pays
Judge Friesner this handsome
compliment, and assures his re
nomination:
The name of Hon. John s.
Friesner, the present able occu.
pant of the bench from Hooking
County, in this Judicial subdivis.
ion, will be presented to the Con
vention for nomination.
We are only repeating what
nearly all men say in all the
counties of the district, that
Judge Friesner is one Of the
ablest and most brilliant of the
young men who ever went on
the bench from this or any other
State.
His bearing upon the bench
and his decisions have invariably
stamped him as a real jurist, and
a reelection to the position
which he has filled with such
ability and satisfaction, is simp.
ly what is due him.
We believe there is no opposi.
ton to his nomination, and after
his nomination we doubt wheth-
er he will have a competitor in
the field, but will be reelected
AS the unanimous choice of the
people Of the three counties.

The reputation that Harry Wehber
and his company made in the funny
drama "Nip and Tuck" on their
visit here filled Mechanics Hall on
his return last night, dispite the ill
clement weather which doubtless
prevented many the d.sappoint-
ment of being turned away from the
doors. Harry Webber, as Nip
and Harry Rich, as "Tuck," his
partner, were very comical and
kept the house in roars of laughter
all the time they were on the stage.
The support was very good; j. NJ.
Moriarty as Major Tremain, Eva
Webber as his dashing wife, being
especially good. The most loudly
appIaudcd feature OF the play was
the appearance of little Carrie Web
Der, a three year old prodigy, who
drew forth the rapturous applause OF
the audience. London (Ont) Ad-

O'Galh>ami st. Patrick.

McBaird's Iron Works, March %, 1884.
ED. SENT1NEL-I regret that
was not able to furnish you, as
requested, a few notes upon st.
Patrick's Day, and am almost
ashamed to acknowledge how lit
tie | remember Of the man, so
great and so good, as l read it in
history. !. 1 have a pretty fair un-
derstanding of the character OF
St. Patrick and the wonderful
work he done, but felt that the
task Of presenting the subject ir
a fitting shape was beyond the
resources Of a moments notice.
Days, so prominent among the
historical events of the word,
call for a thoughtful and careful
consideration of the causes that
give such prominence, and now,
while that torch of christianity SO
long ago lighted. still lights the
shores OF the little isle across the
sea, it should be the prayer of
every man and woman, that a
new st. Patrick my be raised up
to strike off the shackles and to
free nation never born to be
slaves.
The red hand that holds the
destiny of the Irish people in its
fateful grasp, blights as no other
sin can, and when in that day,
which will come, it shall be lop-
ped off, and the precepts he
taught shall be known again as
the children of liberty, it will not
be necessary to say TO any one.
This is st. patrick's Day in the
morning. for all nations will
know it.
l will furnish you my Lecture

Rise, Fail and History
ow-Nothingism !!

Is 4 work much needed for the perusal OF
young voters who were not active partici-
pans in the dark lantern campaign OF
1854, just 80 years ago.
Many young voters have but vague con-
ceptions of the base and disgraceful efforts
to establish a religious test for office which
is not only contrary to the Constitution OF
the Fathers, but destructive of that free
dom ard liberty secured by their efforts,
and dangerous &c. the peace and safety OF
society.
To this effort of the Know-Nothing party
to destroy religious liberty, was added the
no less prOscr; ptive and hateful demand OF
refusing equal rights and privileges to for
eiSn born taxpayers who see ht to seek
the protection of our flag and the burdens
OF its defense.
This highly useful and iu.eresting PAM
ph1et will be issued sometime in May, and
its preparation could fall in no abier bands
those of its prudent u discreet author, DR..
MARTIN kAGAY, of Somerset, OniO.whO
lived ut the time and resisted those poiiti-
cal heresies with patriotic fidelity.

THE CANAL QUESTION.
The Appropriation Passes the
House.

"He laughs best who laughs
last" and new we ''smile."
Last Thursday the question of
an appropriation for repairs of
the canals came before the Leg
islature and the bill failed to pass
for lack of seven votes. The vote
was reconsidered and on last Sat
urday again came before the
House. An amendment propo
sing to strike out the ten thou
sand appropriation for the Hook
ing canal was defeated, and after
discussion the final test was or
dered for Tuesday afternoon.
When the bill came up on its
passage demand was made for
a separate vote ON the Hooking
canal.
The railroad interests, hoping
to capture the State properly.
swarined the lobbies and were
jubilent in the hope that the ap
preparation would be defeated
and the valuable franchise. worth
at least half a million, would
drop like a ripe apple into their
oHtspread hands.
In defending the public prop
-erty, in representing his constit-
uents, Col. Weldy did his duty
as man and Representative
He made an able argument, an
swering fully every objection
and presenting reasons that were
convincing. He was ably assist

bus, Chairman of the Committee
on Public Works, Barger. of CO.
-shocton. Allen O'Myers, Of Co
lumbus, who made speeches
with arguments that could
not, at least were not answered.
Brunner, of Wyandotte, who
Ihopes to go to Congress as rail-
sroad candidate, and Love, Of Co
lumLiana, who tries to dig a po-
litical grave, were the conspic-
uous opponents of the bill.
The bill for the Hooking ap-
preparation passed by a vote of
81. The bill for the entire State
appropriation passed by a vote
of ga.
The bill will pass the Senate,
unless the railroad lobby proves
more powerful than the people.
Senator Welsh IS non-commit-
tai upon the question. There is
less than three miles of canal in
his county, and he is set upon by
a lobby from Nelsonville and
Lancaster who favor abandon
ment, that posters the life oat of
him.
If Senator Welsh can not vote
for the appropriation, he can
keep his hands off.

THE CANALS Do PAY.
Facts TO Prove 1t

Representative Cole, in a
speech in the Legislature, favor
ing the canal system Of the State
give the following reason:
Statistics, showing that the 7Ss
miles of canals cost about $10,-
000,0 that the receipts ovel
expenditures amount to about
IS, I'll, Oil. 42, demonstrating
clearly that the canals of the
State have turned into the Treas.
ury nearly s5,0Oo,000 more than
it cost to MAINTAIN them. Lng-
land, France and Germany are
reviving and improving their ca
nails. Last year New York adopt
ed constitutional amendment
forever abo,ishi..g all tolls, and
making the canals absolutely
free. The property along the 7S2
miles of canals in this State that
is dependent upon these canals.
and is worthless without the ca
mails, amounts to $32, 100000. The
State derives s275,0OO taxes an
nually from their mills, more
than double what tie bill calls
for, as follows:
Ohio canal, mills, warehouses,
factories, &C, $s,OO0,000; Miami
and Erie Canals, mills, warehous-
es, factories, &C., s20,OOO,OOO ;
Muskingum improvement, mills,
warehouses. factories, &C., $2,-
100000! Athens feeder, &C., s400,
900; total, $32.OOo,OOO. If the
canals are abandoned this prop
erty becomes worthless. The
Ohio canal carried from the 1us-
carawas Valley last year 400, 900
bushels Of coal to Cleveland,
saveing in freight to the people
of Cleveland nearly $100,0O0.-
The 1872 miles of canal save IN
freights $1O,OOo,000 a year to the
people.
The canals as they are distrib-
uted over the State, are in direct
competition with nearly all the
railroads in the State-at least
all tie leading railroads, as fol-
lows: The Miami and Erie Ca
nal with the Cincinnati, Hamil-
ton and Dayton Railroad, Tole-
do, Delphos and Western Rail
road, Cleveland, Columbus, Gin
cinnatti and Indianapolis Rail
road, Wabash system, Pan Han
die system, and Indiana, Bloom
ington and Western Railroad {;
the Ohio Canal with the Cleye-
lard. Columbus, Cincinnati and
Indianapolis Railroad, Cleveland
Lorain and Wheeling Railroad,
Cleveland, Akron and Columbus
Railroad, scioto Valley, Balti-
more and Ohio, Pittsburgh, Fort
Wayne and Chicago Railroad,
Panhandle Railroad and Wheel
ing and Lake Erie Railroad.
The gross earnings of these
railroads are $1OO,OOO,O00, and
the canals reduce freights So, ,0O0,-
900 to $10,00O,O00 a year. The
canals save the people s10,000,-
900 a year. The people paid to
last year s9S,69S,913.-
The experience of all the ship
pers along the Chic Canal has
been that as soon as navigation
closes in the canals, freights go
up on all the railroads in compe-
tition with them ten to twenty
per cent on local freights.
