Gc5- The joke of the Season is editorial in
Saturdays Morning Ners, exPatiating with met
fable self-complacency on This Tribune's ignorance
Of State affairs, and hereupon proceeding to con-
found our table OF Thursday of the tolls on oil ouI
State Canals, as estimated by the IThig Cana
Board OF 1910, with Mr.. Ruggless Report, made a,
Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means
Of the Assembly in 1883 We plainly stated twice
over that we quoted from the Report OF the Cana
Board Of 1910 tof which Mr.. Ruggles was Mem
Der as Canal Commissioner and not from his Le-
gislative Report of 1888; the News quotes ouI
table which we say in Its heading is " from anothe
Whig Document" than the Ragges Report OF
1888, TO wit. "f.om the Report Of the Canal Board
in $780," (repeated just below;) and proceeds 10

Dear, compassionate soul! What pity your
sympathy should be split so utterly?


The News says that the actual receipts on the
Canals have fallen mine per cent short of the est-
mate of Mr.. Rusgles in his SO much reviled "Mun-
chausen Report" of 1855. Now just remember that
this Report was framed on the basis of an ensrge-
t'c prosecutions Of The Enlarged aud Lateral Canals
TO completion. Had they been prosecuted prac-
tical man can doubt that the Receipts Of Tolls
would have eressded the highest estimate OF Mr..
Ruggses.
