Country Newspapers.
[From the Missouri Republll b.

"As class editors of country
newspapers have done more for their
State and its welfare and progress
than any other set of men in its bor-
ders. The country newspapers Qn
many respects it is unjust to speak Of
It as a country newspaper) is a,great
comfort, and a great advantage TO
every community. The money paid
for Ii Is the best invested in the line
of family expenses" e.s'.
This comes gracefully and Justly
from one of the largest city dailies in
the country. AS general rule city
papers are not concerned about. the
prosperity of what they call "rural
ROSTERS" and look upon them with
superciliousness that argues more
for their money than their manners.
The "country newspaper" in Ken
tucky is the power that moves the
State and time aud again 1T lhei
taught its prosperous metropolitan
brothers that principle is moreIto De
considered than pecuniary Interest
| Sometimes whense great city journa
presumes upon IFS financial gimpor'
] lance and its newagiving power tt
direct what the rural ROSTERS shal
| do, or TO commit the people to V
scheme In which its own interest i
most involved, the whole barn yart
turns out and teaches it a very salu
tary lesson.
Country editors, in many cases, ar
men who write with delibera!iol
and undersian what they are saying
, while most city editors have no tim
, to tliink, and oftentimes write rcck
lessly in the hot moment Of emergell
cy. Give us a cool, thoughtful, coull

Mr.. JOHN ROACH.

ATTORNEY GENERAL GARLAND has had his
say about the Dolphin. Mr. Roach IS yet
to be heard from through the courts, and b.
will speak in no uncertain tone ROoolns
shipyards and discrediung American work
manship Is not Creditable business for the
political party in observation-disclosures.
WI That is dandy statement, to use
common, everyday adjective, that has
force if not elegance. In view Of the worth
lessness Of the American Navy; in the light
OF the "placesrs uisusmed cruisers, hat
have been blocking up the various United
States Navy Yards since their construction.
in the face of the investigations ths. are
going on and the frauds that are com
ing to light in naval quarters, it
seems 70 Us that long ago Nr.
Roach ought 10 have ben heard from
through the courts in no uncertain tone
and that "robbing shipyards aud discredit
ing American workmanship has been
going on for years and years, and not until
q Democratic Administration 60, into
power was there hand raised against all
this iniQuity.
a. the time the contracts for the Dolphin
and the other cruisers werr awarded 5Y Sec
retsrv CHAxpLER to Mr. Roach as the low.
est bidder. there was considerable dissats-
faction among the other shIpbuilders who
had put in competitive bids tor the work,
Some Of them openly expressed their belief
that the ships could no. be constructed &C
cOrdiUg 70 contract at the Roach figures.
One of Mr. RoNCHS competitors was re
ported at the time as declaring that there
was a secret understanding between the
favored contractor and the Secretary of tn
Navy.
This grave charge acquires new interest
and importance now in the light which Sec
retary WHITNEY and Attorney General GAR
LAND have thrown on the Dolphin contrac,
and the failure OF Ma Roach to carry on
lis provisions"
The Washington correspondent, Of the
Baltimore American had an interview " q
one of the CRANP brothers on July II. 1888.
This is the published report OF MR. CEANr's
deIl ration:
I've cot an idea, after the bids were si-
ycrtised tor that Roach and Chandler we're
working together, so we put in bids lower
than il was possible for Roach or any on
else to build the vessel for. Nov, see how
i. came out. Roach bid lover vet, and so
much lower, too. that be cannot bcgiu TO do
the work according 70 tie specifications.
Thus it was plain ,uough that there vas al
understanding with Chandler that thu
extras should cover the rest !
tell you that Chandler gave
the whole thirg away on the day the bids
we're open His hand shook ike lea
when he opened them. We saw through il
at q glance and l would have given him q
piece OF ny mind then aud there il nv |
