CANADIAN OPINION
Retaliation Would be 3 Severe BI Nv to the
Dominion.

Dominion.
NEW YORK, August 2i.-An Ottawa
special says: The announcement that the
President has recommended legislation
empowering the abolition of the bonding
system has caused much surprise. From
what can be cleaned from members of the
Cabinet at present at the Capital, it
would seem that the proposed action
causes much more surprise than alarm.
A Montreal special says: News Of Pres
ident Clsvelaud's message to Congress,
asking power to enforce retaliation against
Canada, caused intense excitement in this
city. That severe blow will be struck
at the prosperity of the Dominion if Con-
gress sanctions this policy Of non-inter-
course is admitted by all Politicians gave
it as their opinion that all Canada could
her own policy rs if nothing had happened
and await the time when the American
people, particularly those of the North
western States, should grow weary of the
confinement Of their natural trade, which,
it is predicted, would be but q very few
months.
High officials of the Grand Trunk Com
pany expressed the opinion that in the
event of non-intercourse il would be very
serious to the Grand Trunk Railroad, and
also be very disastrous to such roads as the
Canada Southern and Michigan Central,
which run through portions Of Ontario. He
regarded it simply as q stroke of policy on
the part OF the President to ipiure the Re-
puhlicaus in Minnesota and Maine, where
the effects of non-intercourse law would
be especially experienced.
Hugh McLennon, the leading grain ex-
porter Of this port, said free canals were
the only remedy. If the United States
were to put heavy toll on vessels passing
through the 800" canal, Montreal grain
men might rs well close up. Trade would
be diverted to Buffalo and the st. Lawrence
route and the port of Montreal be left de-
pendent on Canadian grain.

that subject. This time Mr.. WILSON can

Railroads That Would BE Affected.

NEW YORK, August 24.-Bankers and

action will be taken by Congress on the

Michigan Central, the Canada Southern and

GLOUCESTER, MASS, August 25.-The
Presidents message was much commented
on by fishing vessel owners. 1t was the
opinion among business men that no one
wanted retaliation as outlined in the mes
sage. An embargo placed on Canadian
fish and the same treatment that Ameri-
cans receive would be all that would be
required to settle the difficulty between
the two countries. On the other hand the
men who man the vessels are unanimous
in their opinion that what the President
has proposed is just right.

MODEST MENTION.
OF the Prosperity Of Clarksville and Her
Popular Daily, The Nswsy Chronicle.

The recent rapid, and permanent
growth of GAINESVILLE, which is no
ticeable on all sides of the city as
well as in the middle, justified the
belief that the time had arrived
when a good lively daily newspaper
was in demand, and this caused the
proprietor of the CHRONICLE to
hand the people the neat and newsy
sheet they are now reading. Realiz-
ing too that as rule times are hard
with people not possessed of noun
tains of the filthy lucre, the price of
the paper was put to the low sum of
10 cents per week, delivered by car
rier. 1t is intended to keep the
CHRONICLE up to its present stand
ard of excellence in rejecting the
events of the day, but if needs be,
more paper will be utilized in order
that the fullest and best accounts of
current events cen be given. The
course Of the paper will be not to
offend or degrade persons who may
be subjects of news matter unless it
be in cases of murderers, thieves or
other Williams whom the evidence or
circumstances may positively show
to be guilty, and these will be ham
died without gloves, but the CHRoN-
IcLE expects to give the news indie
pendently and fearlessly.
