A CAUSE FOR PROTEST

So far as we have been aDle 10
ascertain the fact, of the preliminary
routes Just surveyed for the line OF
the Elkton, Middletown & Masseys
railroad. the route intersectlng the
line OF the P. w. & B. railroad at
the east end of Elkton, if not already
selected, will be finally adopted by
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
This route, as at present located, will
intersect east Main street, through a
cut seventy feet wide, ard about
twenty feet deep, at a point probably
equidistant between the Presbyterian
manse on the north, and the prop
erty of Mr.. R. E. lamar on the south
side of the street. 1t will practically
destroy, for residential purposes, the
only eligible lots nov located on East
Main street, which form part OF the
Bratton estate embraced on both
sides of it. Not only will it destroy
the only remaining building lots
eligible in this favorite section Of the
town, but it will very materially
injure and depreciate the value of
the remaining properties on East
Main street extended, as places Of
residence. This section of the town
has recently been improved by the
erection of a number of expensive
and desirable residences, and is in
fact the only portion OF the county
seat in which, within the next gener
alton at least, as good a class OF
buildings will be erected.
To divide this section, by railroad,
as much as we welcome such improve
ments, would work a general depre-
citation of property not only in that
immediate section of the town but
throughout the town generally. We
are aware, that any intersecting line OF
railroad crossing the town, would meet
the reasonable opposition of property
holders, but as between the routes sur
yeyed, it is an undoubted fact, that
this East End route, will provoke the
most decided opposition, simply be-
cause it will work the greatest injury to
property owners.
As it has always been the custom
of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com.
pany, to hear and give consideration
to the reasonable protests of property
owners, when general interests as we'll
as individual interests are involved, we
think the citiz7ns Of Elkton generally
should at once, make some concerted
and organized effort, to have the route
located where less damage tc property
will be sustained. Speaking for the
citizens OF Elkton generally, we are
sure. they would rather facilitate than
oppose any railroad construction that
will directly or indirectly benefit Cecil
county, but whatever advantages the
East End route offers, from
a railroad point of view, will be more
than overcome by the damage sus-
tanned in property ownership.

CONSCIENCE rAKBS A COWARD OF
m CARLISLE.

~
Secretary Crfsle decided the other
day, that the employees of the Balti-
more Custas House, could not con-
tribute a die or dollar, to buy a
testimonuatch for the retiring col
lector, M Marine.
How gould possibly work corrup-
ton to esent testimonial to sup
erior der who was going out of
office Zone of those Dundreary, or
drearvope political conundrums that
no fsowc can find out.
Af.hiS snper-righteous decision of
S.cr,ry Carlisle is rendered right in
the f.. OF the fact that he himself
helri to "fr ub" the sugar tariff
kLule for the benefit OF the sugar
kst that made so magnificent a con-
sption to the corruption fund to be
\ 5ent in New York to help Mr.. Cleve-
lands election in 1892.
Notice this question which was asked
Mr.. Searles, the secretary of the sugar
trust, on Wednesday before the Sugar
Scandal Investigating Commute:
Senator Allen you think it is perfectly
laudable for the American Sugar Refining Com
pany to contribute large sums ofmoney, by the
thous ands of dollars, for the purpose of infiu-
encing elections in this country do youo
Mr.. Searles.-'I have always understood for
many years that it is the custom of both parties
to solicit from corporations and individuals
for the carrying of their political
and that it is the custom OF corpor-
atoms and individuals to respond to such invit
ations. And with that understanding and what
believe to be general custom the American
Sugar Refining Company has made such con-
tributions at times
Here an officer of the sugar trust
confesses before a committee, that his
corporate monopoly of the poor mans
breakfast table, sugar, did contribute
"big" corruption funds to help elect
Mr.. Cleveland, while Mr.. Carlisle
writes the sugar schedule, that puts
forty millions back into the sugar
trusts pocket,-but-bu t-but-a Bal
timore custom house official can't give
ten cents to help buy poor Mr.. Marine
a souvenir watch.
Go to, MIR. Carlisle, your conscience
has made coward OF you.

Its fleece, he used to spin 1t.
But Grover took the duty off,
And now he has to skin it.
How sweetly the Democratic tariff
reform cuckoos sang in the ears OF
the farmer in the last Presidential
campaign!
Now, instead of giving him free
sugar, and enough duty on his wool
to make sheep growing profitable,
they gratuitously give the sugar
trust $4,000, 900, to which the
individual farmer will contribute
from $40 each up in duties, while
they br0teet him by making his sheep
worthless by taking the duty off of
wool.
In other words they rob him OF
the duty on sugar for the benefit of
the sugar trust, and protect him by
making his wool worthless.
And all this magnificent bounty

promise and tariff reform"
Senator Sherman gave the farmers

statistics in the Senate on Wednes.
day.
Make note OF them.
The price OF wool ranged up to 1850 between 40
and 80 cents per pound during the war it
fuctuated widely; since the war it had varied
about 40 cents. From 1891 to 1898 the price
averaged SO cents. But the moment it became
reasonably certain that the democratic party was
committed to free wool the price fell to free
trade price. To day the price of first class wool
1922 cents. The actual loss to the farmers OF
the country on single crop had been $50, 900 OOO
The revenue of the treasury from wool had
averaged in the last four years $4,000 900
annually. With a deficiency OF from s7O,OOO,OOO
to $780, 900 staring them in the face could the
democrats afford to throw away this enormous
revenue and resort to an income taxi
