Waterbury evening Democrat., 1889-08-05

THE Connecticut Catholic, whose editor has the confidence of the Hartford democracy as was shown by two successive elections to the legislature, calls it the democratic conference so-called" and says "The men assembled in tho confer ence' certainly have a right to their own opinions and are at liberty to express them as fully as they please to empty benches or from hilltops where no sensi- ble person could be bored by them, but they have no authority or right to speak for or dictate measures to the staunch old democratic party. Particularly is this the case when the majority ill that meeting is sized up. We were not much surprised at the remark of an old party war horse after he read the names of the representative democrats. He said: The Lord alone can save the democratic party of the state of Connecticut if this kind of business continues Aside from those present or what was attempted to be done we are of the firm belief that the meeting was ill- advised and will not profit the party, but rather tend to raise dissensions among the leaders as we'll as the workers in the party We trust no such childish conference will be called again in our time" To which the democratic party generally will echo amen.

An Undercround Canal.

"The strangest canal in the world is one never saw mentioned ID any book or news paper," said an English clergyman to St. Louis Globe-Democrat reporter. Ut is a canal sixteen miles long, between Worsley and St. Helens, in tho north of England, and Is underground from end to end. In Lan- cashire the coal mines arc very extensive, half tho country being undermined, and managers thought they could save money by transporting the coal under ground instead of on the surface. So the canal was con- structed, the mines connected and drained at the same time. Ordinary canal boats are used, but the power Is furnished by men. On the roof ot the tunnel arch arc cross-pieces, and tho men who do the work of propulsion lie on thcir backs on the coal and push with their feet against the cross. bars on tho roof Six or eight men will draw 0 train of four or five boats, and as there are two divisions in the tunnel boats pass each other without difficulty"
