restricted reciprocity, but even while they
were preaching about better trade rels-
tions, the President Of the United States
and the Senate took council together to
fiud out the best way to harrass Canada
most with the least injury to their own
country. There was little prospect OF
getting any advantage from the
United States. When its representatives
showed such hostility. But he was sin
eerely glad at the good the Presidents
message had done in this country. 1t had
evoked Q national spirit which speaks
through the press and the people OF both
political parties. The citizens Of Canada
were in no mood TO submit to the dictation
of any foreign power. The liberal press
in Toronto and Montreal were very plain
in their statements. He admitted that the
President of the United States was a great
Statesman, that he was at the bead OF o
great nation, and that the words he Mt
tered were of great responsibility. The
policy Of this country should be OF great
prudence, and desire to conciliste rather
than to irritate, to be friendly with rather
than uniriendly with any power in the
world.

HE SAID 1T.
Candidate Harrison Convicted of Anti.La-
Dor sympathies.


INDIANAPOLIS, August 30-Leou O.
Bailey, Deputy United States Attorney for
the District Of Indiana, tonight addressed
meeting of Democratic railroad men in
this city, on the subject of General Harri-
sons connection with the railrcad strike
in 1877, strongly maintaining that the
Republican standard-bearer at that time
demonstrated that he was aggressively un-
friendly 10 lsboring men. The accusations
that have heretofore been made public by
Democratic newspapers were elaborated
into 8 speech two hours in length, con-
GLIDING with the reading of affidavits from
Isom Hughes, Frank J. Murphy, Patrick
A. King, and others, who were among the
leaders of the strike, supporting the charge
that Harrison was intolerant and sggres-
sive in his relations with the strikers as an
arbitrator, and that he evinced an esger
desire to resort to the use of arms in sup
pressing the strike.
All testify that while did not say that
"a dollar day is enough any working
man," he did say that 1t was better for
them 10 work for that amount than to be
receiving nothing, adding ANY working
man can live on dollar day." and if he
were Governor of the State he would put
the men back to work, if necessary at the
point Of the bayonet.
The speech has already been placed in
the hands of the National Democratic
Committee, and is to be freely circulated
as an important campaign document. The
Journal of this city has standing offer of
So, 900 for proof that General Harrison ever
used any such language as has been attribu-
ted to him. Tonight the Executive Board
of District Assembly No. LOG, Knights Of
Labor, made formal demand upon the
Journal for the 81, 900 which they offer, to
apply for the benefit of the street car dri-
vers who were deprived Of employment by
local strike about year ago. The Re-
publicans, as an Offset to the speech, have
just issued what purports to be true his
tory of General Harrison's part in that
strike, which shows that he was specially
friendly to the strikers. This statement
is indorsed by eight railroad men.

Two Cabinet Ministers Discuss the Fishery

Two Cabinet Ministers Discuss the Fishery
Question.
TORONTO, ONT, August $4,000 per-
sons assembled at Hagersville, Ont. yes
terday to listen to political addresses from
Sir Hector Lsngeyin, Minister of Public
Works, and Sir John Thompson, Minister
of Justice. The speeches of both minis
ters are pregnant with significance, being
the first public utterances of ministers OF
the government since President Cleve-
lands retalistory threat
Sir Hector LaDgeSin sketched the his
tory Of the fisheries dispute, showing TINT
the United States fell back on the treaty
of 1918 of their own accord, and that Cana
da was maintaining her just rights. After
great deal of labor to adjust the
differences amicably by treaty this
United States Senate hsd frustrated
their effort. Then President Cleveland
followed that up with 3 threat to punish
Canada. What forS Because there was
no treaty? Ii was not Csnsda's fault.
The President wanted to stop Canadian
goods from coming over American railways
in bond because American fishermen Were
not permitted to bond their fab over Cana
dian railways, bat that right, with others,
was given mp BY the Americans long ago
in consideration Of Labrador fishing ad-
yantages. These advantages she had and
would not give up. While the right TO

While discussing President Clevelsnd's
message he said they should be collected

they should consider the time st which
their neighbors' excitement existed. They
should not resent too much hard names
aud the hard words that were spoken
against Canada. Canada was great coua-
try, territ0rially as large or larger than the
United States. They had different insti-
tutions, some Of which, at least, were let

Denies the Miserable Lies.

WASHINGTON, ID. G., August 30
Congressman Mills puts an end TO an
absurd and false Republican charge in
these words:
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. ii, 's8.
j. Herrey Cook, Esq:
have your letter of the 18th inst, with
slip containing Dir. Lewis Tompkins' let
ter in which ne attributes to me the fol-
lowing language:
''The Democratic party, except in the
presence of imbeciles hardly worth men
tioniDg, is not on the fence. 1t is a free
trade party or it is nothing. The conflict
between free trsde and protection is irre'
pressible." And he further said that the
term revenue reform" (the Mills bill) il
mask" and yet more he says: The
Democrat who is not free trade should &c
elsewhere. He should join the Republi
cans"
Every word in the above statement is
false. / never uttered such words. The
people that originate such falsehoods art
certainly in desperate straits.
Yours truly,

nipeg special to the Pioneer Press says
The offer of the st. Paul, Minneapolis and
Manitoba Railroad for the construction
and operation of the Red river valley and
other extensions was presented to the
Legislature to-day. 1t differs from the
Northern Pacific proposal principally in
that it proposes lease of the roads, and
not their sale, the ownership to be re-
tanned by the government, and in propos,
ing to give running powers to other roads,
including the Northern Pacific. Ex Pre-
mier Norquay, in speech in the Legis
lsture, declared himsed himself az an
ardent advocate of the Hudson Bay road
as ever, saying President Cleveland's
message on retaliation had given the plan
greater significance than ever before.
