A PIERCE ATTACK ON THE DOMINION GoykRNMKN
A HINT SECESSION

AND Hint AT SECESSION.
ST. Paul, MIMI, Feb. S.-A Winnipeg special says:
The annual report OF President Ashdown, read be-
fore the board OF trade yesterday, nercely attacks
the Canadian Pacific Railroad and the Dominion
government on the monopoly question. The only
remedy, he said was free railway system. The
1lOeral policy OF the Canadian Pacific had driven
tens OF thousands OF Canadian settlers south into
Dakota. In conclusion he broadly hlnted that a
continuation OF the present policy OF the Dominion
government might result In q strong movement
towards annexation 10 the United states.

the record. Golden returned 10 the track at
a. m after two hours rest. He limped badly and
seemed pretty well broken up. AT O'Clock Taylor
also returned. He looks TO be pretty baIy used up
Stout, the Arabian, umps painfully around the
track, and is the sport OF the crowd. About
O'Clock Panchot passed Guerrero and took second
place. After this, Panchot left the Mexican until
at 8 O'Clock he WAS nearly miles ahead OF him.
Day is doing Nel, though apparently suffering
from the pace.

Consul Hornstedt. Of Moscow, has made a report
to the Department Of State in regard to an import
ant invention recently patented by a Russian
subject, and now being successfully worked in
Russia He says: "The invention consists OF o
method to produce iron and steel direct from the
ore. The whole secret OF the process Is the con-
structiOn OF the furnace, which is simple and In
expensive. 1t will be difficult for our iron mas
tiers to believe that under the new process
iron ore after submitting 1t to the ordinary smelt
ing process, Is taken direct from the furnace TO
the r0lling-mtll and turned into sheet-tron; yet
such ts the case there being to my certain knewl-
edge three furnaces in thfs country now In full
op6saton and working with great success"

The Senate and the Message.

President Clevcland's best efforts
for amicable settlement having been
rejected by the Senate, there remains
but one other means of protecting our
rights 1t is amazing
that the Republican Senators did not
see the yawning pit opening just be-
fore them; that they did not realize
that the President had but to write
this message to push them into it.
They had meant merely to throw dis
credit upon the Presidents diplomacy;
they forgot all about the necessary al
tentative. They have rejected one
method of settlement; the President
simply asks them for authority to
take the other. But this. we may be
sure, the Republican Senators have
no notion OF giving him if they can
find any way of avoiding it. 1t would
be political suicide. 1t would tie up
millions upon millions of capital, it
would throw thousands upon thou
sands of men out of employment, it
would bring this great and peaceful
Nation to the verge Of a terrible war,
not because our difficulty with Canada
can not be peacefully and honorably
settled, but because the desperate and
unpatriotic Republican faction in the
stupidity. not to call it treason out
right, refused to let it be thus settled

Blaine on Trusts Once More.

Mr.. Blaine made another speech on
trusts. He has been looking about for
some way of crawling out of the hole
in which he put himself and the party
he commands by his recent bad break
on trusts and he thought he had found
it. In his previous speech he declined
to say whether trusts were adyanta-
geous or disadvantageous to n coun-
try. He was, however, positive in his
opinion that they were largely pri-
waite affairs with which neither
President Cleveland nor any individual
had any right to interfere" Now he
insists that Congress has no right to
NEEDLE with them and that trusts are
not National but State issues" The
object of this is to create the impress
sion that trusts can not be reached by
tariff legislation and he says that they
have no connection with the tariff. 1t
will take more able man than Mr..
Blaine, and he has great ability in
making things appear other than they
really are, to convince people of that
in the face of palpable evidence. But
if trusts are largely private affairs"
with which people have mo right to
interfere" as Mr.. Blaine at first as
serted, how can they be State issues
any more than National issue? Mr..
Blaine has shifted his ground but has
not bettered it. He still stands as the
defender of trusts. Cleveland Plain
