TIE CANADIAN INVASION
Mr.. pINGLKY CONTENDS THAT THE FEDERAL COY

MIR. D1NGLFY CONTENDS Thai lHE ffD'-HH'> wv
TRNMHNT, NOT MAINE. Is TO BLAME.
WASHINGTON, Feb. IS (SpeciaD. Congressman
Dingley is inclined to treat as a big scare the
alleged canadian invasion Of Maine" which
The New-York Sum exploited this morning.
so much SO that it called upon the Government
TO summarly suppress this invasion OF United
States territory by the Canadian Pacific Rail
way Company. The case in substance, as IL
was made out, was that the State OF Maine had
chartered local road TO run from It's western
to its eastern border. This charter had suisse
ouenty been sold TO the Canadian Paclhc haiii-
way Company, which was now completing the
line in a hurry. When completed 1T would be
one Of the most valuable lin ks OF this Canadian
line from Canada to the seaOoard. ms woulu
amount 10 giving the Canadian Governments
on wheels strip of the State Of Maine SIX rods
wide. ,,
But Mr. Dingey points out that the trouble
is not one made by the State OF Maine but by
action of the present Administration III Its orders
in permitting Canadian goods to be bonded across
Maine. lie says that Maine has the undouDtod
Constitutional right to charter a road within
it's own borders and to allow such road to be
leased or sold to foreign ., parties ms ms
9 has last Of Sa ce6 GHnS The and
renee road originally chartered as a MAINE
road, but it has long been leased ana operated
as part of the Grand Trunk system OF Canada.
The Grand Trunk also crosses Michigan, ana ON
the other hand link Of the New ork Central
road runs across Canada from Detroit 70 buriaIo,
road is Of "a local nature SO far as the STATE j.
concerned II is subject to State law, state IN
spection and State restriction. The fact that us
owners live abroad does not give it the right TO
carry goods in bond across the State or do any
hing else the Federal laws or regulations prohibit.
The real evil is indicated by Mr.. Dingley to be
in the action of the present Administration. The
Federal authorities have the power TO regulate
commerce across a State, to or from other States
or countries, and this power might have been 50
exercised as TO have united the Canadian lines
in their traffic across American territory But
in fact the Treasury Department has so ruled
that goods may be bonded by way Of Vancouver,
through Canada and across Maine TO the Atlantic
seahoard. II is this stretch of Federal powers
which is giving unjust encourag cement TO tho
Canadian roads rather than Names violation of
constitutional right.
Although thus defending Names constitutional
right 10 this charter and to lease its road vet Mr.
Dngley does not say, as matter Of eXpediency,
that IL is wise to give foreign corporatiOns links
in their line across American territory.

STRUGGLING ELECTION REFORMS.
Annapolis, Md, Feb. 18 (Specal.-The efforts Of
tho CitIzens' Reform League and the Republicans TO
secure a new election law for Baltimore meeting
with much opposition from tho democratic ring IGana-
gers At the beginning OF this session Of the Legis-
lature the Democrats handed in their reform election
bill along with the others. They had promised It
In their platform adopted at the last State Convcn-
ton and they made their promise good by aking
copy Of the Reform Leagues bill and presenting It
with a few triGing alterations. That they had not
the slightest idea Of passing the bill
in that form is no% apparent from the
work being done In committee. The Assembly Com-
mittee Elections has half dozen bills before it, all
advocating the Tlden law and other reforms In the
methods Of registration While 1t was supposed that
the managers would never permit the Legislature 10
pass either of these bills without leaving In Them little
loop-hoes for fraud, It not expected that they
would have the erontery to repudae their promises
entirely. Yesterday however, two Of Baltimore Citys
law officers whose opinions while In office are regu-
lated by the ring, came 10 Annapolis and laid before
the committee another election bill which. II passed.
will perpetuate the present loose election system
lille IT Contains few Of the minor provisions Of the
other bills, It Ignores the more important ones 1t
would clear the lists of all Of dead men and the
names OF nonresdents, which the Reform League
only partly able to do last fall through the courts
The principal reform needed Is a new registration.
1t by the old lists that all tho fraud has been per-
petrated. The reform bills advocate periodical regis
tration. The city law officers, who present tho new
bill, declared to the committee that periodical regis
tration absurdty In the city OF Baltimore,
which. unlike NewYork has no floating population
One OF these municipal legal advisers even went so
more city there 10000 illegal votes, but he
thought It wrong that the $4,000 should be made to
incur tho Inconvenience and expense Of periodical
registration for the other 10000. From recent de-
velopments II IL clear that Senator German through
his henchmep. is trying to prevent any decided re-
forms In the election laws.
