A False Claim.

The claim that the last Presidential cleo
ton settled the tariff question on the basis of
protection, is not allowable. 1t settled moth
ing but the fact that the Republicans saw
that they were clearly beaten in the canvass
upon the issues presented to the tribune of
the people, and resolved to purchase Indiana
and New York by the corrupting power of
money. This they did. That the result was
anything but the purchase of those two states;
that it settled any question mooted before the
people, is as false as anything can be, and
misleads no well informed mind. As Hayes
represented nothing but fraud, so Harrison
represents nothing but bribery. New York
and Indiana turned the scale against the
Democrats, and those States were carried by
bribery only. The result was brought about
by the lavish use of money, and the tariff had
nothing to do whit The ballot was bought,
in both States, and the sentiments Of the peo-
pie were not involved in it. 1t is sheer non
sense to speak of the result of the election as
settling the tariff question or any thing else,
for it settled nothing except a willingness to
sell their suffrage of sufficient number OF
voters to turn the scale. and the ability of
the Republicans to buy. The result was
even more disgraceful to the country at large
than the stupendous fraud which made Hayes
the ruler of this people.

The Chesapeake s. Ohio Canal.

The Chesapeake & Ohio Canal is to be re-
paired, if plans can be carried out, and it is
likely they can. The sudden collapse of the
waterway caused great hardship to those
whose living depended upon it, and its repair
would be a blessing to all of them. The
canal, too, was the life of Georgetown.
Several large mills depended upon it for
motive power, and the shipping interests Of
the town was mainly supported by the coal,
brought down by the canal. The repair aud
maintenance of the water way, therefore, is
Of vital importance to Georgetown and very
many people Of Cumberland and other points.
But to expend $500, 00Oto put the canal in as
good condition as before, as proposed, will
be waste of money and will afford but tenn
porary relief 1t is liable to wreck at any
time, and unless it is intended to make the
banks stronger, lengthen locks and widen and
deepen the canal, it will be useless to waste
money in any repairs, for it will be a virtual
waste
