Benjamin E. Rulfellzf Georgia says:
81 regard the onjtrnction of the Mic:
aragua canal as bsolutely imperative to
the success and glory of our republic.
George D. Wise of Virginia says he is
fast friend of the Nicaragua canal and in
favor of the extension of government
aid to secure it's early construction. Alex
ander Mcdowell of Pennsylvania says the
people of Shenango Valley of Pennsyl-
vania believe in the canal and believe that
it should be built and controlled by the
government. Senator Lodge of Massa-
chusetts is heartily in favor of the con-
struction of the canal, and says it must be
controlled by the United States. The
Hon. Michael D. Harter of Ohio is ur-
gently anxious to see the canal pushed
through, but does notbelieve that it should
be done by the government. Daniel Z.

that the undertakingshould receive liberA

RELATING to Our Money.

Attention is called to what is known as
the Baltimore plan, which was formulated
by the Bankers Association at Baltimore,
and which is supposed to have President
Cleyeland's s endorsement and through him
the endorsement Of Secretary Carlisle,
nilly willy. 1t will be seen that the main
feature of the plan is to provide more
elastic currency. And the tax is so ar
ranged that the banks, it is sup
posed, will not increase their cir
culation beyond a certain limit
unless exigencies call for it. If Mr..
Cleveland proposes to launch any currency
scheme into the Democratic Congress he
will only serve by SO doing to still further
discredit it. That seems unnecessary.
Whenever the matter comes up it will be
likely to cause lengthy discussion and
travail before anything is decided upon.
Just at present the country is watching
with great interest the efforts of the ad-
ministration to make good its deficit and
in keeping the gold reserve sieve in proper
condition. While few if any question the
government ability to maintain upon
cold reserve nearly half a billion in govern
ment obligations, consisting Of green
backs, silver certificates and certificates
of deposit, the task under certain condi-
tions is not an easy one.

broken into and their books stolen and
that their tank cars have peen tampered
with in transit and filed with an In
ferior oil, and the inference which this
company would convey is that the Standard
Oil Company is the instigator OF these dis
graceful attempts to ruin even SO small a
rival. People would generally scout the
idea that in this enlightened age such
methods. it is difficult to describe them,
should be employed by even a monopoly,
trust, wealthy beyond the dreams OF
avarice, were it not that there have been
former accusations of like nature. One
feels like thanking Providence for placing
air and water beyond the control of trusts.
Daily Kennebec journal., 1894-11-17

No little criticism is likely to arise from
a paragraph which slipped through under
the deficiency appropriation bill at the last
session of Congress. This enabled the
secretary of state to pay f. J. Phelps and
J. c. Carter for their services as counsel
before Behring sea tribunal of arbitra-
tion SIS, 900 each. Just why Phelps and
Carter, who are warm friends of the
President, should receive this extra re-
muneration, over and above what the
other three gentlemen associated with
them in the case and who certainly worked
as hard upon it, is something which the
public generally would like to know.
