In some places the Fourth of July has degenerated into a mere money-making scheme by which hucksters fleece people without giving them adequate returns. — Such is not the design of the celebration at Renss laer. We will have a grand, good time. Everybody invited.

There is another point against Mr. Roach and his Dolphin. In ex-Secretary Chandler’s advertisement for bids to build the Dolphin and the cruisers, there occurs this important passage: “The three cruisers must be completed within eighteen months, and the dis patch boat within twelve months £rom the execution of the respective contracts.” Mr. Roach took the contracts for all the ships. That for the Dolphin was signed by him on the 23d of July 1883, nearly two years ago. That for the Boston on the same day; that for the Chicago on the 26 of July the same year, 1882. The Dolphin should, therefore, have been completed last July, and the other ships should have been completed last Janurry. The contrcts provide that the Government need not accept the ships unless they are according to contract. Mr. Roach perhaps can explain. He took the contact from Chandler, probably with the understanding that Blaine would succeed Arthur.
