He would not fear he said to lay Cana

to administer justice without prejudice,
in the world. Canada and the Canadians
would emerge untarnished from the
ordeal. The cause being so right
and conscience being on their
side, the animosity of political
demagogues on the other side of the
line would fail to disturb the peace
that ought to exist between these
two people. 81 am not the possessor of
Cabinet secrets to give away, but as a

present case and in our destiny. The
manifest and plain duty of the Govern
ment of the country is to perfect every
highway OF commerce in this country by

Away at CIeXeland,s Message.

TORONTO, September 3.-The laying of
the cornerstone of the new postofiice
building at Aylmer, Quebec, Saturday,
was followed in the evening by BAN
quet to Sir Hector Longevin and other
Ministers. Sir Hector, referring to
Cleveland's Retaliation message, said !:
The Canadians should keep perfectly
calm. In few weeks our neighbors and
friends will come back to peace. Surely
the amity that has existed for seventy
years is not going to be disturbed for
trivial matters now. We have nego-
tiated before, and if there is any,
thing that remains unsettled we
can proceed to discuss it amicably and
reach a mutually satisfactory result.
One thought that strikes me is that the
policy of the Government of Canada in
constructing the Inter-C Colonial Railway,
re-opening the canals and pushing the
construction of the Grand Trunk and
Canadian Pacific railways. is now JUS
tilted by events. However much the
United States may hurt us, they will
hurt themselves great deal more. They
must understand that the Canadians are
in different position from what they
were twenty years ago. Now there are
railroads from one end of the Dominion
to the other. We can now get our goods
through our own territory over our own
roads, winter and summer, and we
would soon start the construction of
the Sault Ste. Marie canal on the Cana
dian side of the falls.
G. B. Eddy, a we'll known manufac.
turer, formerly Of Hull, Mass, said if
the Canadians would stand together they
need fear no Presidents message.
Sir John Thompson said that was the
sentiment which made the United States
one of the noblest nations of the earth !;
that was the sentiment which he hoped
to see among the people at this juncture
when one of Canada's enemies was
Haunting his threatenings in her face.
They were strong but Canada was right.
