WANT CANAL CUT THRU.

There is a general desire to have the
canal which was cut by the United
States government between Ind an
River and RehobOth, many years ago,
now finished to Lewes, Delaware, aud
be made available for navigation. This
would open a large part Of Eastern Sus
sex County to q cheap transportation
with Philadelphia and New York.
The canal was originally cut between
ChincOtesgue and Rehoboth Bay, Civ
ing an inland waterway from Norfolk
to RehOboth. and the Intention was to
carry it to Philadelphia. AT Rehoboth
the work was stepped when the canal
struck the D., NJ. and v Railroad, and
there it has since remained RehOboth
and Lewes hundreds have promised to
raise funds II the Government will
help them out.

by the mining officials that the care

exposing the flame of his lamp caused
the gas to ignite and the explosion
followed.

tors For Not Keeping Election Prom
lses and Rsps MulctinG Public Utiil
ties Corporations.
Trenton. y j.. Jan. l2-In his an
nual message to the legislature Gov
ernor Fort scores the grasping cor
porations and the failure Of the legis
lators TO enact laws to prevent the
mulcting Of the people. The arraign
ment came with the governors appeal
for the creation OF a commission with
power to regulate public utilities cor
porations
Governor Fort says The burdens
which the people OF the state now
bear are the outcome of the consoli-
dations and mergers which have
frightfully overcapitalized the public
utility enterprises and which make It
essential in order to meet their fixed
charges and pay even small dividends
on their stock that much higher prices
be charged for gas and electric light
than a fair. or even liberal capitalize
tion would have required The people
should not be compelled to suffer for
this.
THE Republican party in the state
platform declared. We pledge our
