Mr.. Blaine's candidacy, the Philadelphia
Press, SAYS of his letter that it does not
surprise his best friends and that "his
own determination being clear, he has
felt that it was due to the party that it
should be advised of the fact in ample
time to govern itself accordingly. Had
Mr.. Blaine remained in the field his
nomination would have been certain. Ii
is now for the party to deliberate well
and wisely and determine what its own
best interests demand and what leader
cal most successfully carry its standard.

is the Democratic Party:r
In answering this inquiry Mr. Miiligan.
after quite a lengthy introduction. filling
about three columns. proceeds To trace
the history OF the party from its founda-
tioI TO the present time. From this his
tory it would appear that all that is great
ana good in the history of our country
has been accomplished by Democratic
craftsmanship and Democratic legisla-
ton
This history is described as a march
which, headed by the banner of strict con
Stitutional construction on through the
administrations OF jefferson. Madison
Monroe, Jackson. Polk. Pierce and Buch-
anan. was always strong and always vic
tOrlOus.'
In all its history the party made no mis-
takes. It is true, three-fOurths of the
Democratic party organized a conspiracy
to overthrow the Constitution and dis
solve the Union, III order that they might
perpetuate that great crime of the nine
teenth century" human slavery. and even
plunged the nation into long and bloody
war to attain their reasonable purposes: 8:
vet no member of that great national
organization, says Mr. AIilligan, has
ever yet sung Of that flag that floats SO
beautifully above us:

it is simply a grist mill, turning out
material for our houses of correction
and State pri ons, while hundreds of
respectable families are on the verge
of starvation. Drexler's case is only
one out of hundred in the East, where
such men as Kelley and Jones of Penn
sylvania, the leaders of the Republi-
can party in that State, have lately
turned the screws little tighter upon
the hordes that have been imported
under contract to supercede the Amer
leans. Now if these millionaires are
to be protected in their infamous traf-
fic of grinding the poor man poorer,
and placing the monopolists in affiu-
ence and wealth, why blame working
men for organizing that they may
be better able to furnish the necessar-
les of life for those who have to de-
pend on them for support.

Immigration evils.

The Congressional Committee on
Immigration is pursuing its labors,
and the investigation is disclosing
some startling facts in reference to the
evils of importing foreign labor to
compete with American workmen. I.
V. Powderly, Master Workmen OF the
Knights of Labor, testified before the
Committee ON Monday, and among
other things said:
81 paid visit To Pennsylvania
mine and found the opening surround
ed by an eight-bosrd fence twelve feet
high. Inside, in low, wooden build
ing $50 Hungarians, who ate, from
long pine table, pork which was alive
with maggOts and bread that smelled
to heaven with other filth. They wore
shoes made of wood by themselves.
They had come to take the places of
strikers in this, the Reckert mine, aud
did succeed in breaking the backbone
of the strike. The immediate effect
In the Lehlgh region was very bad, AS
they drift into all lines of work and
compete with American labor.
Most assuredly | think this comes
from immigration. Men may be
found along the line of the Pennsyl.
vsnia road, pick in hand, who are on
II known by their number on brass
check attached to their suspenders. l
would have every American citizen
speak the English language. Inning
ration since 1880 has been very dan
gerous to American workingmen.
There are now 1000, 900 idle men in
the United Statesmen who would
like to get work. Hungarians and
Italians are the most objectienal of
immigrants, and all who come under
contract are undesirable"

The Retaliation BILL.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-FollOw-
ing is the text of the substitute Fish
cries bill: Be it enacted, etc., that
whenever the President may deem it
his duty to exercise any of the pow.
ers given him by the Act entitled
IAN Act to authorize the President
of the United States to protect and
defend the rights of American fish
ing vessels, American fishermen,
American trading and other vessels
in certain cases and for other pur-
poses," approved March 8, 1887, it
shall be lawful for the President in
his discretion by proclamation to that
effect to suspend in whole or in part
transportation across the territory of
the United States in bond and with
out payment of duty of goods, wares
and merchandise, imported or export
ed from any foreign country from or
to the British domains in North
America.
SECTION 2. Whenever the President
shall be satisfied there is any dis
elimination whatever is the use of
the Welland Canal, st. Lawrence
River Canals, Chambly Canal, or either
of them, whether by tolls, drawbacks,
refund of tolls or otherwise, which is
or may be detrimental to the interests
of the United States, or any of its
citizens, it shall be lawful for the
President ia his discretion to issue a
proclamation to that effect. whereup-
on there shall be collected toll of
twenty cents per ton upon every for
eign vessel and her cargo passing
through either Sault Ste. Marie Canal
or St. CLAIR Flats Canal, and the Sec
rotary of the Treasury may authorize
aud direct any OF the custom officers
to collect tolls levied under this Act,
or the President may, in his discretion,
when satisfied there is any such dis
elimination, prohibit the use of said
canals to any foreign vessels. The
President, when satisfied such dis
elimination has ceased, may issue
his proclamation to that effect, in his
discretion, whereupon the toll author
lied by this Act shall no longer he
collected and SAID prohibition, If or
dered, shall cease.
SECTION 3.-fhat the Secretary of
the Treasury is authorized to make
any regulations needful to carry this
Act into effect.
AT only one point was there any,
thing like a difference between the
Democratic and Republican members.
This was upon the proposition COM
ing from the Republicans that cour-
tesy to Great Britain required that it
should be notified that Article 30 Of
the treaty of Washington had been
practically nullified and abrogated
upon the refusal or denial of the
II 5hts of American citizens in Cana
dian ports. Upon this proposition
there was a division on party lines,
resulting in its defeat by 8 to 8, but
when the question came up on order
ing favorable report on the substit-
ute bill, however, there was not ne
gative vote. The Republican members
do not expect the bill to meet with any
opposition from their side of the
house when called up, although the
proposition rejected to-day may be
renewed and serve as a basis for
SEINE speeches, 10 which the position
will be taken that the President al
ready has sufficient power to do what
he desires in the way of retaliation.

of their labor is already to be seen.
At their meeting Thursday night
matters of the greatest Importance to
our town were dis i,- ed, and means
provided for work in the proper

Under the Boards management
the probabilities are that WORT will
soon begin on an artcsiau well. The
committee having the matter in
hand are investigating the merits Of
well boring machinery with a
proposition that has already been
made.
4 company is being organized to
run steam freight and passenger
line from Lamar to the Neutral Strip.

upon investigation it is found that a
loaded train of an engine aud five or
six heavy loaded wagons car make
seventy miles day, parties interest.
ed have already examined and Oh
tanned terms for an engine, and ne
would not be surprised TO see such a
train making regular trips ont of
Lamar by the last of March.
The Lamar hotel company have
applied for q charter and it is ex-
pectsd work on the large brick hotel
will commence in q very short time,
everything in connection With the
project has proven satisfactory to the
company SO far.
We were Informed yesterday that
work on the brick building just
across the street from the Hewes
Hotel would commence next week.
!. We elsewhere make mention of
the sales of two farms on Clay Creek,
that goes to show farm lands are get.
ting to be in demand, not that there
is not thousands of acres of govern
ment land open to settlement, but
proved up or decided lands are in de-
mand.
No boom has struck us but the
general outlook is most favorable
and that there will be crowds of
honeseckers here at an early date
there is no doubt.
