have granted the demands ol their men
for eight hours and 20 percent advance.

are most bitterly denounced by

said the long and short haul clause as
amended was like crow bar thrust into

direct effect OF the Camden amendment
would be to make the producers Of the

The republicans have no purely parti-
san reasons for disliking Mr.. Cleveland.
He is one OF the many disintegrating and
demoralizng influences at work in the
democratic party, to render its national
defeat in 1888 a certainty. The demo
cratic party needs leadership almost as
badly rs il needs principles on which il
can agree. Mr.. Cleveland is not only
short OF many of the essential qualities of
leadership. but is so openly indifferent to
the success of his party that he is constant
ly exaspera,ing or disgusting the real
leaders of the democracy. The large
democratic losses in the late Congression-
al elections tell the whole story of the
steady decadence of the party whose
official head. ofiicious tutor and real enc

What to Do with Him.

What to do with President Cleveland is
subject which is giving the democratic
party great deal of trouble. The office
holders and mugwumps declare that he
must be nominated again for President.
They shout his praises and fill the news
papers with articles expressive of their
admiration for him. They pretend that
he is ahead of Andrew Jackson in resou-
ton, and the equal of Jefferson as a
statesman. OF course they will listen 10
nothing but the denomination of their
model President. as they declare him to
be.
But there are others who do not accept
the views of the officeholders and mug
wumps in regard to the President. They
have seen him and are not fascinated.
They have observed his course. his wob-
blings and foolishness in regard to civil
service reform. his feeble knowledge of
political parties and the first elements OF
craftsmanship. and his stupidity in think
ing he can administer the government
without party to support him. and they
want TO more of him in the Presidential
chair than the present term will afford.
They believe it would be a calamity for
their party to name him as its candidate
in 1888, that it would indicate certain
defeat, and long struggle for the supre-
macy in the government In New York.
Virginia, North Carolina, Indiana,
wherever the contest promises to be sharp
and result close. the elements against
Cleveland are powerful and combative.
In fact there is a pretty heavy storm
brewing in the democratic party over this
matter. When leading New York
democrat says if Mr.. Blaine had been
running at the late election he could have
carried that State by $4,000 majority, and
that so 900 democrats in New York who
voted for Cleveland in 1884 will vote for
Blaine in 1888 if the former is csndi-
date, it means great deal.
TIE expectants of office, the hangers-on
for patronage are still fiattering the Presi-
dent 10 hopes to be rewarded for their
adulatiou by some crumbs from his table,
but when the game is played and they
find themselves out in the cold they will
be among the bi,terest enemies of Cleve-
land. The indications are that the outs
will be too strong for the ins and that
Mr.. Cleveland will be laid on the shelf at
the close of his present term.

Canadian Pacific.
The NEW BRIDGE Across THE ST. LAWRENCE
AT MONTREAL NEARLY tOMPLETED-lT
WILL Soon BE OPENED TO TRAFFIC

An important event tor considerable por-
ton of Northern New England and Boston
will be the opening for traffic within a few
weeks of the new bridge of the Canadian
Pacific across the St. Lawrence river at Mon
treal, and before many months have passed
it is probable that new all-rail connections
with Chicago, St. Paul and Duluth and the
Pacific coast will also be opened, to say moth
ing of an independent connection with Mon
treal and Canada free from the heavy tolls
Of the present Grand Trunk Bridge at Non
treal.
The contract for the new bridge at Lachine
was signed late in the year 1885 and provided
for the completion of the masonary Nov. 80,
1886. The winter of 1856 was spent in
quarrying the necessary stone and cutting the
timber required for the work. Since then
twelve piers, containing about 10000 yards
of masonary, have been built in water Is to
35 feet deep, with current in many places
of u miles per hour, an accomplishment in
deep water work which has never been
equaled in any portion Of the world. During
the progress of the work the contractors
have steadily employed about 500 men and
large amount of plant, including As derricks
scows and dredges.
The last tier of stone on the last pier of the
new bridge at Lachne was laid the present
week. The first stone was laid on May IL of
this year, and the contract will be flashed
two weeks ahead Of time. The work has
been done most satisfactorily. The super
structure of iron work is also getting on rap.
idly, and the bridge will probably be ready
for traffic before January l.
The rails for the Canadian Pacific exten.
sion from Agpma to Sault Ste. Marie have
been purchased, aud the work of construction
will be pushed as rapidly as possible, so as tc
secure its completion to the Ssult Sic. Ma.
