Electrical Water Power.

If the project relating to new canal
at Rheinfelden, Germany, be carried out
an enormous stimulus will be given to
electrical engineering, since the power
rendered available through the construc-
ton of this canal will amount to not less
than ii, 900 horse power, and will have
to be transmitted electrically to Basel,
Sackinger and other distant places. The
plans are ready, the capital is available,
but the concession has not yet been OBJ
tanned. If it is obtained in time work
will begin in the coming autumn, and
the whole undertaking will be completed
in 1891. The length of the canal is II
miles; its width, 1856 feet, and there will
be erected a turbine house containing
twenty-three turbines, each of 750 horse
power. Each turbine will drive its own
generator. The pressure adopted will be
sufficiently high to enable the distribu-
: ton of power to be effected economically
within distance of fifteen miles. The
power of the turbines being $1,000 horse
power, total of II 900 horse power will
be available to the consumers. - Ex-

Strangers on One Side Campbell
on the Other.


The name of George B. Cox is en-
tWined for all time with that of j. B..
Foraker. >
The question among thousands of
voters of Ohio is, "Who is Cox?'
We will answer His rise in politics
has been phenomenally rapid. He be-
gan driving delivery wagon. Next
he is heard Of as keno roller in a
gambling hell. of the Queen City; and
finally as the proprietor of a notorious
saloon.
Meanwhile he had developed a taste
for politics, and gradually his influence
over the rough and vicious element. be.
came supreme. No man could be nom
mated for office by the Republican con-
yentions without the Cox support. Re-
publicans of the better element charge
that he sat up as political broker and
sold places on the ticket to the highest
bidder. Part of the fund thus gained
would be divided with the STRANGERS"
whom he had sent to the convention,
and the remainder he would keep HIM
self. ua~- ...... .,.. +
OF all the Republicans in Hamilton
County Governor Foraker chose this po-
lItical boss and chief Stranger as his
personal representative. Two years ago
he appointed him to the most lucrative
and important position, within his gift
the State oil inspectorship. Under a
man of Cox's political genius this place
is supposed togbeSworth- all the way from
$1,000 to $4,000 per year. j.-.I II,
Last fall Cox forced himself upon the
Republican ticket as a candidate for
county clerk. The Lincoln club, the
reputable Republican club of Cincin-
natl, bolted his nomination and MADE
the issue "Cox and Foraker on the one
side, and honesty and decent methods
in politics on the other. On this issue,
with Governor Foraker moving Heaven
and earth in the interest of Cox's cleo
tion, he ran 1000 votes behind the tick
ct, and his Democratic competitor,
Prof. John B. Peaslee, with the aid of
honest Republicans, was elected by over
$500 majority. ......
This fall the issue is the same, but
broadened so as to take in the whole
State. The same conditions pertain in
every part of Ohio as in Hamilton Coun-
ty. Il 4
The people must choose between the
Cox-Fora ker-Strangler element on one
side and James e. Campbell, who has no
entangling alliances and is to be judged
only by his record in Congress, on the
other. We believe they will follow the
example of the Lincoln club, OF Cincin-
natl.
