The Hon. w. H.Clifford's effort to send
himself as delegate-at-large to the st. Louis
Convention. IL making trouble amongst the
brethren The Eastern Democracy declare
that Mr.. Clifford ought to be satisfied with
what he has got already, and a good many
western Democrats agree with them. Mr..
Cifford's plan is, according to the Boston
Globes Bangor correspondent. to get himself
elerted dslegate-at-large, theu head the cele-
CATION, and fire off three hours speech be-
fore the ST. Louis Convention. This speech
is said to be already in preparation, and Mr..
Clifford intends to make it the great effort
of his life." ut will include" 1--WE quote the
language of the correspondent "al the
points ever presented by him 10 his speech
es." 1t is to be hoped that Mr.. Clifford will
get the opportunity desired. We should like
to see all the points Mr.. Clifford has ever
made put together in one speech, and note
how they compare.

The story that Claus Sprecsles had made a
t,ade with the Canadian Pacific road, where
by lie gets such low rates ON his sugar that
he can send it to eastern markets and com
pete with refneries here, is denied by Vice
President Van Horne OF that company, who
says the story was invented simply to injure
his road with the Interstate Commerce
Commission.

The Portland correspondent of the Boston
Globe reports that the Hon. William H. Cliff
ford will not allow himself to be nominated
as Democratic candidate for governor He
prefers to be defeated for Congress rather
than for governor: why, we don't know.
Perhaps because he has got used to it.

A correspondent of the Lewiston journal
undertakes to state what the disposition of
the Republicans of Cumberland County is
with regard to delegates at large to the
National Republican convention The Re
publicans Of Cumberland have had no oppor-
tunity to express themselves on this subject,
unless the correspondent has been round and
interviewed" the majority of them which
is probably not the case. Therefore state-
ments Of their disposition, amount to very
little. They may be disposed to concede the
delegate to York County, but they have
made known no such disposition as vet.

What the New York Tribune very appro..
priately calls the dark lantern" tariff bill
has the right of way In the House tomorrow.
Mr.. Mills, If he is well enough, will report
the bill and explain it to the House. The
debate will then be fairly opened. When it
will close 1t would be useless to predict, for
a majority of the members Of the House are
already down for speeches, aud the remain
der will probably be moved 10 say something
before the debate is through II Is not prob
able that this outpouring OF ei,auence will
have much effect upon the l!ouse. for the
measure has been made by /, Democrats a
party measure, and, therefore. most Of
them will swallow it, whethe- they like
1t or not. Mr.. Randall viii oppose 1t, but
the threats and promises OF thr administra-
ton have so weakened his support that lac
will probably stand almost alone among the
Democrats. The chances are, therefore, that
the bill will get through the House substan-
TALLY in its present form. But the debate
will have the good effect OF exposing TO the
country the character of the bill, its PARTIAL
ty TO the industries Of Democratic States, its
uncertainty as regards the reduction of the
ouipluo, anu ITO Observation-Disclosures w couiC VI
the most important industries Of the North.
Mr.. Dunn, by taking advantage of the abb
sence Of one member, has managed to get
favorable report from the committee on his
free ship bill. Dunn is from Arkansas and
very likely never saw ship In his life, yet he
knows, or thinks he does, how to revive Amer
lean shipping. His plan would kill shipbuild-
ing entirely In this country. That is certain.
But IL is by no means certain that it would
place any considerable portion of the carry
ing trade in American hands. In order to
compete with England we must not only be
able to get our ships as cheap, but to run
them as cheap. The Dunn bill takes care of
the first part, but it does not the second
Another disadvantage we are under, in CON-
peting with England, is this: England sub
sidizes her steamship lines, thus making
1t possible to establish lines where If there
were no reliance but the business it would be
impossible to establish them. But the Amer
lean Congress steadily refuses to adopt this
policy. II even refuses to pay fair compensa-
tion for carrying the mails. Mr.. Dnnn's bill
therefore would fall far short of panacea
for our vanishing carrying trade. 1t would
be practically useless for any other purpose
than to extinguish what little there is left of
our shipbuilding industry.

The Wickes Tunnel,

Work is progressing rather slowly on
the south end of the tunnel, from the fact
that the water soaps through so fast that
it is almost impossible at times for the
men to work, but Mr.. Larson is doing all
IN his power to alleviate this, says the
Boulder Sentinel. It would be strange,
indeed, if they should happen to strike a
running stream before they got through.
Such thing would not be impossible by
any means. But it is to be hoped that
they may be able to work along in the
even tenor OF their way until the work is
completed. On the north end all is
working favorably, and should they be
compelled to stop work on this end, the
tunnell could be finished from the other.

AN ENTERPRIsING TOWN.
Snch the Jefferson County Sentinel De-
clares Great Falls to Be,

The Great Falls Tribune came out en-
larged last week to a six-column quarto,
and fine illustrative map on the inside
in the shape of Il supplement. 1t pre-
sented the compliments of Chowen &
Burghardt, who we suppose are selling
off some real estate. The people Of that
city do one thing to the queens taste, and
that is, they put up money to boom their
town. We sent east and had nice map
of Boulder and surrounding camps cleo
trotyped, put it at the head Of two col.
umns of matter detailing the advantages
OF town and county, and after printing
that couple of weeks found that our ex-
chequer had been increased Just ten
cents, and we were out the cost of the
map, price Of composition and other ex-
pense attendant upon printing the same.
That is the difference between Great Falls
and Boulder. If the Tribune had printed
that article their people would have sent
thousands Of copies Of that paper east
hoping, Of course, to induce hundreds of
immigrants to come to Montana, and eX-
pecting that Great Falls would secure
some of them.-Jefferson County Sen
