people, and IN spite of rain and mud
was most decided success. Col. w. r.
Steele's speech was of the usual high
order, and so, it is said, would have

hundred people, and visitors report an
enjoyable time. The game of ball be-

attraction, and was won by the latter by
a score of eight to ten.

finished. The track is laid within mile and
half of the business center of Aberdeen where

thence across bridge TO Ocosta Some thirty
men are working on the bridge, but the work is
not being pushed, and fiji was so Aberdeen has
no particular interest in that extension Many
people expressed themselves as willing to turn
over the bonuses promptly if the mile and half

LONDON, Aug. 13.--The Star publishes the fol-
lowing special cable dispatch from London:
Langevin's resignation of his portfolio in the
Dominion cabinet as minister q public works is
the subject of much comment, not only by the
press, but in political and colonial circles gener-
ally.
The Chronicle refers to Cir Heetor's standing In
Canadian politics and his past record, and hopes
he will be able to clear himself from the charges
preferred against him. But it says IL cannot
long doubt that the whole system Of public
works in Canada reeks with wastefulness and
corruption. The article concludes by saying
that only by bringing the offenders 10 justice
can the Dominion government avert political
catastrophe, besides which the death Of Prime
Minister Sir John Macdonald will be oil small
moment.
The Advertiser also strongly condemns the
corruption existing at Ottawa.
The Pal Nal Gazette says Langevin has done
the straight thing in resigning his portfolio,
and hopes he viii succeed in proving his hands
clean.
The Canadian Gazette, in an editorial entitled
"Canada's Humiliation applauds Sir Hector's
action in resigning his seat in the cabinet, but
regrets he had not resigned before, az he would
have avoided much suspicion that his reslgna-
ton at the present time is more forced than
voluntary. The article also says enough scan
dals have been proved TO make Canada by
word among civilized people. 1t urges the Do
minion government 10 leave no stone unturned
TO bring the offenders TO justice.
