RaiIrca d Matters.

The scheme for the consolidation Of the
Chesapeake and Ohio and the Richmond
and Allegheny railroad is now fixed fact,
as it is stated Operations under the ar
rangement are to commence this fall The
consolidation will take the Richmond and
Allegheny out of the courts, and furnish
the Chesapeake aud Ohio a double track
from Clifton Forge to Richmond. The
plan is for the Richmond and Allegheny to
Issue $1,000 600 of new bonds, upon which
the Chesapeake and Ohio is to guarantee
interest at the rate of q or per cent
This will give the heavy freights on the
Chesapeake and Ohio, such as coal and
lumber, better grade to Richmond and
save in wear and tear. and also ia trans
pOrtation expenses.
The proposition to transfer the remain
ing 100000 IN Rock bridge bonds from the
Valley Railroad to the Virginia Western
is being considered by the Board of Super.
visors of Rock bridge. If it is done the
Virginia Western will complete the road
to Salem or Roanoke, or construct an indie
pendent line to strike the Southwest by
Gala Water and continue on through the
Southwest tier of counties, opening up a
rich and valuable unoccupied section OF
country.
It's encouraging to notice these schemes
to give railroad facilities. to the Valley
There is no more inviting field for proita
BILE railroad operations, or where more ma
terial wealth is awaiting development.
The arrangement about the Virginia
Western would benefit Lexington anG
Rockbridge county TO an incalculable de-
gree and give life and animation to thai
whole region of country.

Tariff on Iron Ore

We have teen informed that it is indus
triously circulated through portions of the
10th district, and especially in the mineral
district of Augusta and Rockhridge coun-
ties, that Hon. j. Randolph Tucker was in
strumental, while in Congress, i'll having
the tariff on iron ore increased from 50 to
rs cents. This is mistake. Mr.. Tucker
not only did not suggest the increase, but
was opposed to it. The increase was due
to Gen. Malone when in the Senate. He
was member of the Conference Com.
mittee on the tariff bill of 1888, and in
that capacity offered an amendment to
the ore schedule to increase the tariff on
foreign iron ore to $500 per ton. This
proposition was not accepted, and after
considerable contention and no little plain
talk, compromise was finally effected on
IS cents-an increase of SO per cent. We
do not suppose Mr.. Tucker will thank any
one for intimating even, much less locat-
ing the responsibility upon him. of NOV
ing an increase of the tariff rates on iron
ore or anything else. He is one of the free
traders who has never been afraid or
ashamed to say that he believes in the
policy and theory of free trade, and never
before has been accused Of proposing to
increase import duties on anything.
