WE are in receipt Of letter from
State Senator j. M. CASTLE stat
ing that the bill introduced by him
was to repeal an act declaring San
dy River navigable to Wyatt's mill,
and not to declare it navigable to
that point, as stated in the last is
sue Of The CHRONICLE. We will
state that we got our information,
if we remember correctly, from the
Nashville Herald, and did not dis
cover the error until we saw the
Americans statement of it, and it
was our intention to make the cor
rection this week.. which we think
due the senator.

The President has named ex-
Governor FOSTER, Of Ohio, to be
Secretary Of the Treasury to fill the
vacancy made by the death Of Mr..
WINDOW. FOSTER is as radical in
his opinions as the President, and
his financial ideas are in perfect
accord with the New England lead
ers who are controlled by the gold
bugs Of Wall street.
The Camden chronicle. (Camden, Tenn.) 1890-current, 1891-02-27

The Farmers Alliance is i'll fa-
vor of the Government foreclosing
the mortgages it holds upon the
Union Pacific and the Central Pa
cifc Railroads and run those roads
by way OF experiment. There is
no reason why railroad companies
should not pay their Indebtedness
to the Government the same as a
private individual, but should the
Government show a disposition to
carry out such a scheme, the prob
abilities are that the railroad COM
panies would provide way to can
eel their indebtedness to the Gov
eminent. But, if the amount of
this Indebtedness was covered into
the United States Treasury, the
Republican Congress wouldscheme
a way to get it out in the way of
substituting private enterprises and
pentioning a few more thousand
e,amp-followers. 1t would be adj
disable to let this matter rest until
,be Democrats take control of the
government in 1898.
