power OF tho Canadian Pacific to exercise
malehcent ascendancy in tho field OF Do
minion politics. Well may the Canadian
Liberals question the sincerity OF our eS-
pressions Of sympathy and OF our promise
of cooperation while we continue to fur
nish the sinews OF war to the worst enemy
Of continental union. They think we
ought to understand. what among them is
notorious. that the Canadian Pacific is the
principal engine for the propagation and
maintenance OF Torvsm from one end OF
the Dominion to tho other. Al the last
Parliamentary election in Canada the mana
gers o; this railway issued proclamation IN
favor OF Sir john MACDONALD and carried
thousands OF Tory voters to the polls and
home again on free tickets. Their road
even brought Tories from the United States
to vote for the perpetuation Of II state OF
things in Canada from which they them
selves had fled. No wonder that Lord SAILS
BURY after the close OF the fight raised
one OF the Canadian Pacific maanates to
The pecrage Even now this railway re-
turns solid Tory delegation to Ottawa
from the new provinces in tho west. and its
influence moro than any other agency
gives the Tories command OF ontario and
parts OF Quebec. When. in addition to It's
present levers Of coercion. it has alb
sorbed the Interroloniel road, tho hope
that Canadian Liberals may gain con-
troll Of the Ottawa Parliament may rs well
be abandoned. That Is. provided we con-
tinue to play tho game OF tho Tories in
Canada by giving the Canadian Pacific the
exceptional commercial privileges which
alone save it from impotence.

The bill passed by tho House at the last
session for tie sale OF part o. tho brooklyn
Navy Yard has now been reported favorably by
the Senate Committee.
There is reason to suppose that it will be-
comea law. The tract to he sold has for years
been dumplu: ground for old material. and
is OF little value to tho yard. Competent
authorities have also decided. after careful ey-
animation. that the yard will never need this
tract Among these authorities are Secretary
TRACY and the commandant. Brooklyn wants
the tract for its own purposes. and Is willing to
pay very liberal price for it. The pending
I'LL Is drawn in such a way that tina assessed
value Is quito likely to be a million and half.
and will probably correspond we'll with prices
paid for neghbornG lots. In addition. the
Navy Yard Is to have the benefit OF the I'M
proved water approaches constructed by
Brooklyn for the now uses
Tho receipt OF funds from the sale OF this
land may incline Congress to mako further I'm
provements at tho Brooklyn yard. SO that this
additional advantage will be derived from the
project. Unless some unexpected hitch should
occur. the agreement Of the senate to The plan.
which has already passed tho House. may be
expected at an early day.
