QUR STATE CANALS. Views of Our Ex-Governors on | the Question. General Dix Heartily In- dorsing Governor Tilden. Mr. Morgan Startled at the Enormity of the Frauds. Lieutenant Governor Woodford Considers a Reform Necessary. The recent action of Governor Tilden relative to the State canals and the method of their manage- ment having attracted so much attention, it be- came interesting to know how such action was viewed by lis predecessors tn office, A visit Was accordingly made to ex-Governors Morgan and Dix by the writer. EX-GOVERNOR MORGAN'S VIEWS. Ex-Governor E. D, Morgan, who is 28 courteous as he is reserved, when first asked what he thought of the present feud between the Governor and the Canal Ring pleaded his retirement from Political atfairs as a sufficient excuse for observ- ing a rather non-committal attitude toward this question. He had no hesitancy in saying, how- ever, that he thought the subject was one which should be thoroughly investigated, and, so far as the appointment of the committee of investigation was concerned, he did not think 1t mattered very much whether it was appointed by the Governor or by the Legislature. committee should bring in a whitewashing report he felt nevertheless sure that the truth could be sifted to the bottom, for the Governor could ap- point any committee he pleased to investigate the subject and thus lay the true facts before the public. “Were you not startled at this exposé?" the extent of the alleged frauds, although there bad been a good deal of taik In recent years about the mismanagement of the canals. He coniessed at the same time that extensive preoccupation by business afairs had prevented his studying the Governor’s Message with that care every public spirited citizen should give to so important a State paper. “Was the question of canal mismanagement brought to your notice while Governor of the State? ‘Tms question Governor Morgan answered in the | negative, adding also that during the terms of his imimediate predecessor and successor in tue gub- ernatorial chair no such question had come up. “There had been some frauds in the letting of une canals during the administration o1 Governor Hunt,” he said, “but that was some ten years be- tore my term of office.” THE QUESTION OF TOLLS. Speaking of the canal tolis ex-Governor Morgan said that during his term there was an immense deficiency in the revenues from the canals, so that the surplus had at one tiine sunk to $900,000, while, in order to meet the coustitutional require- ments, it should have been from $2,000,v00 to $8,000,000, Ie urged upon the people their duty in regard to this matter, and when le went out of office he was able to announce to Nis successor, Governor Seymour, that the revenues had been brought up to $4,000,000, The trouble at that time Was that the tolls nad been allowed to run down to almost nothing. ‘Ihe ex-Governor then aliuded to the scheme, in 1858, to change the constitution for the purpose of seiling the canals and coniessed that he had always been one of its determined opponents. “And what do you think are the proper rem- edies now, Governor ?”” “1 think Lhe canais should be placed in the hands of honest und capable men, and that they should see that the tolls will be sufticient to yieid uw revenue that will meet the constitutional re- quirements.’? “Do you think the tolls should be raised, Gov- ernor?”? g “They should be so adjusted as fo raise the be- fore-mentioned amount of revenue, which they do Rot now. In some cases they should be raised.” “And what will come of this ¢posé 2?! “TF think the investigation which ought to he, and no doubt will be made, Will produce good and Care| results, J most earaestiy tape wuat it will.” ‘This ented the interview. GENERAL WOODFORD ON THE QUESTION. Ex-Lieutenant Governor Stewart L. Woodford was found in his law ofice in Broadway. Mr. Woodford, wno was Lieutenant Goversor in 1867 and 1868, and as soch President cr aficio of the | Canal board, was one of the most determined sureet. Watches ana Jewelry repaired.
