THE Allentoson (Pa. Democrat pub
lished in the heart of the iron and steel
belt of Pennsylvania, and whose week
" resume Of the iron and steel trade is
an authority, is responsible for the
following:
In 1888, when Bessemer pig was
worth $17.37 per ton, steel rails sold
for 500. .75 per ton. In 1892, when Bes-
semer pig is selling for $14 per ton,
steel rails are selling for $50 per ton.
The price of the raw material drops
ever SO much but the Steel Rail Trust
lirmly holds its product at $50 at the
mill.
Were it not for the tariff duty of
S13.A per ton foreign rails could be
imported for about $25 per ton but the
duty would run the price up to S38. A
per ton. Under cover of this duty the
Trust exacts the same price for rails
whether Bessemer pig costs $13 or Sl4.
In 1889, when Bessemer was selling
for S18 per ton, the price of rails fell to
500. .25. but since that time the Trust
has been made water.tight. The re is
no longer competition. AS conse-
ouence. the cost of building and main
tanning railroads has been largely in
creased, and the people are made to
foot the bill in the increased cost Of
freight and passenger service The
yearly profits Of the Steel Rail Trusts
are estimated at not less than
$4,000, 900.

"NEws BIRDS" are treacherous little
things at their best, as they frequently
give rise to erroneous impressions, and,
that such a staid and conservative
newspaper as the New Era should pin
its faith to the whisperings :" of
those mischievous little things, sur
prises us. For the edification of our
esteemed contemporary we will say
that the TRANSCRIPT has not changed
hands, nor is it about to do it. Mr..
Young, for the present, is associate
editor of the TRANscIPT, and, If we
mistake not will be of material assis-
tence in making it the brightest, newsi-
est, and most popular and influential
weekly newspaper on the Peninsula.
Arrangements have already been made
to secure local, as well as general, news
up to the hour of going to press, and ,
with corps of reliable and intelligent
correspondents, that object is already
within sight.

THE Daily Republican, like all other
fire-eating Republican journals, over
reaches itself occasionally when criti-
cizing the attitude Of Democracy to-
ward the country at large. It charges
the Democratic party with having
made the bloodiest war of modern
times to maintain slavery in the South
ern States, and In the same article says :
The Southern States were deter
mined TO secede and the Democratic
party aEoud have allowed them to go
rather than to make war to keep them
In the union.n That any newspaper of
to-day should descend to waving the
"bloody shirt" is mystery, as the
people Of this Republic have so repeat
edly frowned upon every attempt to
resurrect 1t, as to bring into disrepute
every paper engaged in the work of
sowing the seeds of discord and dis
ruption. The contradictory remarks
of the Republican are not surprising,
as the falsehood was never yet told
that was not eventually found out, but
It is seldom that the truth is so quickly
vindicated.

THE present campaign is most i'm
portant one to the Democratic party in
this State, in fact it can be said to be a
crisis, and unless every man that is a
lover Of, and desires, a pure and free
government by and for the people, puts
his shoulder to the wheel, and works
and votes for every candidate on the
ticket, defeat is certain. No true or
conscientious Democrat can afford to
remain away from the Primary elec-
tions, for there is where the safeguard
of the party lies. If every man in the
party were to go to the polls on the
10th inst, and vote for the candidate
for nomination who,in their judgment,
Is the best fitted for the Office to which
he aspires, the Democratic party in this
state need not fear any ticket of the
opposite party that has been dictated
by the most corrupt ring that ever
existed in the Diamond State.

MIR. Cochran Makes a Statement
TcoMMUNIcATEDf.

To the Voters of st. Georges Hundred,
addressed IL herewith desire to rem
der statement relative to the business
transacted by me during the past yea 7
as assessor, and for which office | am
again candidate. It has been re-
ported that my lists were padded.
This most emphatlcally deny. The re
we're, as my duplicate will prove, forty
negroes added in West st. Georges
Hundred and sixty-two in the east
side. Thirty-eight of the former were
vouched for by NJ. B. Burris, the other
two by Thomas Gould.
The ones on the other side wer
vouched for by Messrs. II. A. Pool,
Senator James McMullin and Wilson
Walker, all Of whom are men OF integ-
rity and whose oath it was impossible
for me to ignore, making total of 1O2
voters added, while the list shows 4S2
negroes assessed, barring $50 of which
I know nothing; they either being
placed there by the former assessor OF
by the Levy Court. That the list is
padded is an indisputable fact but that
I did it or that I added one single
name or duplicated single name that
was not perfectly vouched for is false.
The books never left my possession
until they were posted at the places
required by law.
|, After deciding upon an open denial
of these charges I consult ed promi-
nent citizen of Odessa who informs me
by letter, that the list rendered by the
Clerk of the Peace contains one name
three times, ,gmy duplicate giving it but
once. An explanation of this error
would not be uninteresting matter by
those originating the charges against
me, and trusting should any voter dis
believe this statement, he may in yesti.
