A Familiar Yell.

The Bourbon organs of the South
are in high glee because the railroads
have "snubbed' the Ct. A. Il. The
Louisville Courier journal feels
thankful to know that there is one
class of the community which the O..
A. r. can not bulldoze" When or
doing? The shoe happens to be on the
other foot 1t is the q. A. r. that OBJ
jects TO bulldozing, and that is what all
this fuss is about.
But the Bourbon organs, which never
lose an opportunity TO stab veteran of
the CT. A. r. in the back, are taking
sides with the great monopolies' in
this little fight. The COurjeT-,JOltr
nal, Henry Watterson's able paper,
SAYS that the G.. A. Il. has been in the
debating business long enough, and it
is time to sit down on it. 1t hopes that
the National Encampment will be aban
doned, and with ghoulish glee remarks: :
THE country could get on very well
for one year without the encampment
Of the CT. A. IL. We know there are
some people who believe that this en-
campment regulates the universe, and
that its failure to meet means chaos.
If the obstinate railroads serve to de
stroy this illusion they Will have at
least one claim to a nations gratitude.
Perhaps this example may put little
courage into the hearts of some mem
bers of Congress.
Every blatant old rebel in the South
will applaud these words. The G.. A.
II. as an organization has never asked
anything unreasonable from the date
of its birth to the present. And yet it
has been viciously and constantly as
sailed by towards and traitors every
where. 1t is hated organization be-
cause it represents the fighting power
that put down rebellion and saved the
Union. It is called "an army of beg
CARS" by the miserable whelps who were
once humble beggars of mercy at their
feet.
General Grants magnanimity at APP
pomattox was not appreciated. Casting
pearls before swine does not pay.-De-

Reed for Speaker.

Congressman Russell, of Connecti-
cut, who was here looking after some
local appointments, is confident that
Mr.. Reed will be the Speaker of the
next House. 81 believe" said Mr..
Russell, "that Mr. Reed will render
the party better service in the chair
than on the floor. Any man is in a
position to direct legislation much
more effectively in the chair than he
possibly could on the floor. 1 do not
believe that Major Mckinley is a very
serious candidate. He ought to be
Chairman of the Ways and Means
mittee, and probably will be if Mr..
Reed is Speaker. 1t will not pay him
to make too aggressive fight for the
Speakership, for he will want the sup
port of Mr.. Burrows and the other
candidates for the Presidency. i be-
lieve the fight will be between Mr..
Reed and Mr.. Burrows, aud that Mr..
Reed will win. If he starts out in the
caucus with the solid support of New
England, New York the Pacific slo e,
and part of Pennsylvania, it will give
him good send-off, and after the
complimentary votes have been cast L
think he will gain enough from the
West to nominate him. - WdShtaOtO7t

OUR CONTINENT.

Preparations IN Nicaragua for War-Foru
Put In Readiness for "a Confiict-Ravage'
of Yellow Fevcr-New Line of French
steaners-Railway Closed by Snow.
NEw YORK, Aug. Central and South
American mail advices up TO July ~ are
received follows: Warlike preparations
continue in Nicaragua. Three hundred
men have been sent to Fort Castillo te
increase the force at that important point
on the Costa Rican frontier The fort at
San Carlos has also been heavily garri-
sonen. Nicaragua has already between
5000 and 7, 900 men massed at the differ
ent strategic points on the Costa Rica
frontier. Hope is openly expressed that
prompt Intervention by the United States
may avert an actual collision and secure a
peaceable settlement OF the questions al
issue.
A conference was recently held between
Henry Hall, representing the Nicaragua
Coal company, and the national authori-
ties but they came TO no satisfactory con-
clusion. The government, however, Is
more than ever determined, as long as the
Menocal Zeledon or Costa RIGA contract,
which is so obnoxious to the NicaraguaD
interests, stares them in the face. The
work on the canal will not bs allowed tc
proceed. All attempts TO induce the Costa
Rica government TO accept the modifica'
ton OF the Menocal Zeledon contract, sc
that work may go on under amalgamatior
with the Menocal Cardenas or Nicaragua
contract, have thus far proved fruit.ess.
Serious trouble is looked for.
More than half the population Of Bell
joke, Venezuela, has been swept away by
yellow fever. The survivors, who are cut
off from outside communication, are re-
ported TO be in a starving condition.
The Chilli government has made appro.
priations for the purchase of suitable
residences for the CHILEAN governments
legation in Washington and other cities.
The Frence Pacific Navigation company
has contracted with Clyde firm for ter
new steamers for the Havre and Valparaiso
line.
The recent closing Of the Trans-Cordillers
railway by snow has caused much loss.

committec-r was in the nature Of
always out. One day as Mr.. Cameron
sat in the room there entered il to-
gether Ben Wade, Zach Chandler, and
Senator Frelinghuysen, of New Jersey,
afterward President Arthur's Secretary
of State. The conversation, from
commonplace one, drifted to the scenes
of fifteen years ago, in which the three
Senators had been conspicuous actors.
Frelinghuysen and myself listened
with acute interest TO the recital which
have already given you. At its close
said: 1t strikes me that you should
do something to perpetuate such a
stirring event In history. 1t will GER
tainly be n heritage TO your children,
and record of which they will feel
proud There was Discrimination on
the part of every one of them To fur
ther discuss the subject, whereupon /
said: Gentlemen, have been myself
profoundly impressed. L think / can
put in writing the record of the event
well, said Cameron, 'you may
do so, and we will see about it later
on.
"Thereupon," said Mr. Barr, 81 pre-
pared statement embracing every
detail of the famous agreement. OF
this l'.made three copies. In few days
thereafter I called those who were par
ties to it into the committee room and
read it to them. Each agreed that it
was strictly accurate narration. L
then asked the three Senators to sign
the three copies. After an interchange
of some conversation each did sign the
three copies with this understanding
To each was to be given copy, to be
placed with his private papers, no one
of which was to be made public until
after the death of the last survivor.
a copy was then given each Sena-
tor. The protracted life of Senator
Simon Cameron, the others having
long since died, has up to the hour of
Cameron's death kept this event of
history secret. l do not know what
Senator Don Cameron will do in the
matter. The copy retained by Ben
Wade ought to be with his executors.
The copy kept by Chandler, his son-in-
law, Senator Eugene Hale, has, be-
cause have had n conversation with
him in relation to it, and he has told me
he has not only read il but has it.
There is now no prohibition against
its being made public, since all the
parties to the agreement are now IN
their graves"

TO POPULATE ALASKA
A Plan to Remove the Icelanders TO TIA
Yukon River.


wAsHINGToN, Aug. 2.-Among persons
OF a scientific turn If mind a ertain pro-
ject Of international importance has been
quietly discussed. 1t is nothing more nor
less than the transporting of the entire
population Of Iceland, 70, 0G0 souls, to the
most habitable part of Alaska. Many OF
them, it is said, are willing TO move away
TO a more genial climate or at least TO
moro fruitful territory. Their idea is not
to go to n region wholly different, where
all the conditions of life will be reversed,
but to land nearly in the latitude of lee
land. The proposition is one of vast inn
portance, as il invo YES the removal OF ar
entire people, ard that an old, renowned
and cultivated people. IL has behind il
strong influence in high quarters Senator
Platt OF Connecticut, it is said, has agreed
to defray the expenses of an lcelandi,
minister in making the arrangements
The valuable wooded and fertile region or
the great Yukon river is suggested as th,
new habitat Of the Icelanders iflthe consen
OF the Parliament of Iceland and of the
Danish government can he obtai- ed.
