FOR CONGRESS:
HON. HENRY PAGE,
THE INLET Is CUT.

The cutting of an inlet from
the Sinepuxent bay to the
ocean, which has agitated the
minds of our people more
than anything else for several
months past, and about which
SO much has been said and
written is now an accomplished
fact. As heretofore stated in
these columns the idea has
been discussed for several
years indeed ever since the
filling up of Green Run Inlet
the question of digging anoth-
er to take its place has been
uppermost in the minds OF
many people whose existence
almost depended upon the
oyster business, and for at
least the past five years the
argument has been "an inlet
must be cut but the question
of how to do it conld not be
agreed upon. Finally a num-
Der of gentlemen actuated BY
a determination to do some
thing took hold of the matter
and by earnest effort have
succeeded in cutting an inlet.
Whether it will prove success
ful or not they have no assur-
ance, but no matter what the
result may be these men are
entitled to much credit. They
have done their whole duty in
the matter and even though
no beneficial results may fol
low, their honesty of purpose
and zeal in the work is none
the less creditable and de-
serves the commentator OF
the entire county.
On Friday. the tide in the
bay being full, a small ditch
was cut from the inlet to the
surf on ebb tide in the surf,
and this ditch showed very
satisfactory results. The sand
was cut out by the force OF
the water we'll into the ocean,
and those in charge think
there will be no difficulty when
the wind and tide are right.
1t is thought that-the desired
winds and tide will occur to-
day friday, and if so, the
inlet will be cut. How long il
will remain open none can
say but the credit of the un-
dertaking should be commen-
surate with the intent Of the
projectors.

(. For the first time du-
ring the last score of years a
small loan that matured in
September, 1891. had to be
extended because of the ina
bility of the government to
pay it.
s. With all these additions

the close of the fiscal year,
was s27,o5o, $50 or only SI2,-

S7o,ooo,oo were absolute OBJ

less than S5o,ooo,ooo more to
pensions next year, with many
more millions demanded for
growing bounties and the al
most countless public build
ings already under contract.
Such are the sober facts as
to our looted treasury. The
surplus of over S55,ooo,ooo
left by Cleveland is gone, the
forced loan of the bank note
redemption fund, amounting
to over S54,ooo,ooo, is gone
the payments to the sinking
fund are suspended; the

unpaid for want of money ;

priations S7o,ooo,ooo were to
meet obligations created by
the previous Congress.
Taking the appropriations
and the estimated revenues
for the present year and add
ing the available surplus to
the revenues, the present fs-
cal year will leave the treas
ury bankrupt not less than
$4,000 900. with growing

swell the deficit for some
