REPUBLICAN DTPLICTTY.
They Concoct "A Clever Plan for the
ErIe Canal Investigation.

Albany. Feb l5.-Tke Republican
the Erie Canal Investigation has been
discovered. 1t is to appoint as coun-
sci for the governors commission
skillful lawyer. who will by deXterous
tricks either conceal or nulify any ev-
idence of crookedness which may be
offered TO the commission. The fact
that Republican counsel Will be the
only legal advice Of the commission.
VIII make il easy for such a scheme
To be carried out.
In both houses of the legislature
the Democrats were refused their pc
titi0n to be allowed to have counsel
appear before the commission. with all
the rights which counsel appointed by
the majority would have. to examine
ana cross-eNamine and produce proof
Of facts as they exist.~a-+
Every layman knows that a skillfuI
lawyer can withhold proof by his
questions. keep back facts by emitting
10 ask Tor that which the witness NAV
know derogatory to the canal plum
derers. and make prominent all that
a witness may know to the credit of
the canal ring. The Republicans have
on their lists men who can do this
thing. and the plan is making To force
the commission To select counsel for
the purpose. ...
A similar trick was ATTEMPTED at the
start Of the LeXow Investigation. but
the efforts of the men who were de-
termined to show the police corrup-
! uon existing al that time prevented
! the success OF the scheme The re-
/ formers insisted that John w. Goff be
4 made leading counsel To the legislative
I committee of investigation. They
+ forced acquiescenceto their idea. and
( Gon was appointed. Many New
York politician remembers with what
YIgor the investigation proceeded
When Gon began his work as counsel
ana substituted his energetic and We
/ hement questioning for the previous la \
/ ana easy methods Of examining.
The Republicans fear a Goff may
spring up in the canal investigation
and all efforts will be made 10 appoint
/ commission SO cOmplasant as to
4 choose the counsel which the Republi-
can State leaders wish
Gov. Black is going on with his plan
Of shifting the responsibility for APP
pointing the commission to the shoul-
ders Of the commercial bodies of the
State. II is understood that letters
have gone out 10 the New York Cham
ber Of Commerce. the New York Board
Of Trade and Transportation, and sew
eral other commercial and trade or
ganiZations, asking them to suggest
the names Of one or two men to be
named as members of the governor :
commission.
InaSmuch as IL has been charged
that the commercial bodies are con-
trolled by men who are in sympathy
with the Republican organization, ii is
/ not far-fetched To suppose that they
/ will select men who will be workable
4 by the Republican leaders. and who
+ viii not only appoint the counsel chos-
I en- by the Canal Ring, but will also
/ help counsel along with the whitewash-
ing scheme

TRUTH IMMORTAL.

Truth cannot die! She may for years
Be trampled on by SANDERS feet,
Lie buried in a sea of tears
And wear the garb of base deceit,
Yet she Will rise; however deep
The sun may dip his burning PROV
In occidental seas he'll sweep
The mist again from orient's brow.
Truth cannot die! Cold prison walls
May shut her in from air and light,
And none may heed her plaintive calls
For trial at the bar of Right,
y ct she will triumph: Virtues tears,
Though swallowed up by thirsty sand,
VIII undermine the massive piers
And snap the bolts like giants hand
Truth cannot die Her heart may
sheathe
Each arrow sped from Envy's bow
And helpless, hooking hands may
Wreathe
Her brow with cypress stepped in
Yet, she will live; the grain of corn
Lies dormant in old Winters womb,
But in the lap or Spring tbs born,
Adorned with crown Of gorgeous
bloom.
Truth cannot die! In darksome tomb
She may for centuries sleep on;
While twilight deepens into gloom,
And hope-despairing-cry, "She's
gonep
But she'll awake some Easter morn
With armour bright and cleaning
sword;
She must prevail! Jehovah's throne
Is resting on her plighted word,
