CANADA MUST DO THE SQUARE THING OR
TAKE TIE CoNSEQr kNCEs.
WASHINGTON, August 20. The I'resi-
dent this afternoon, issued proclamation
imposing retaliatory tolls On Canadian
vessels passing through the American
canals, under authority of the act passed
at the last session OF Congress. 1t was
understood that it was the intention of
the Canadian government to abolish the
tolls in Welland canal at the end of the
present season but Secretary Foster in
sisted that such solution OF the question
would not be satisfactory to his govern
ment The President considered it his
duty to issue proclamation contempat-
ed by the act of Congress. The Secretary
gave assurance that should the Canadian
government give notice of its decision to
abolish the discrimination now complain
ed of, the proclamation would be suspend
ed conculrently with such abolition
THE NEWS IN CANADA.
OTTAWA, August u. The news of
President Harrison proclamation regard
ing the American canals was surprise to
the government. None of the ministers
here are disposed to express any decided
opinion at present as to what action
Canada will take, now that the American
$500 canal is to all intents and pur-
poses closed to Canadian vessels, owing to
prohibitory duties. Judging from the
underculrent of feeling displayed in Off
cial circles, the Canadian government is
not likely to yield.

The Republicans of Bath had another raj
ly Friday evening, filling the Alameda.
Senator Frye made mastery speech,
very largely upon the shipping interests
and the tariff, both of which are of such
vital Importance to the mechanics of the
Shipping City. His speech was enthusi-
astcally received by the vast audience.
Senator Frye never spoke better..... The
Republicans opened the campaign in
Rockland Saturday night with great gusto
at Farwell Opera House. Senator Will
liam z. Frye delivered one of his old time
speeches, filled with eloquence and wit.
''There's no answering that logic" eX-
claimed an enthusiastic member of the au-
dience as the Senator sat down. and the
magnificent applause with which the
speech was greeted was a proof to the
statement. In addition to Senator Frye s
speech, able remarks were made by Leon
ard Il. Campbell, of Rockland. Earlier
in the evening a fine Harrison and Reid
flag had been unfurled near the post Office,
amid a display of fireworks and to the
lluSlC ol IlS Sfdlldln cOIuel Ddllu. lie
Tribune office, from which the flag was
suspended, was elaborately decorated ....
In the general mixing-llp of things, due
to the failure OF the legislature to pass a
number OF bills by a constitutional ma
jority. there is danger that the electoral
vote of Kentucky will be thrown ont in
the approaching Presidential contest.

The Stimulus of Protective Tariff.

Probably there is no weaker creature on
earth than man. He is utterly defenceless
His bite is not us good the bite of cat
His head can be broken with stick. He is
unprotected, but he has got brains enough t.
harness himself to the forces of nature. When
he finds a big river up here at Rumford Falls
he knows enough to take advantage of it
and by-and-by big city grows up and all
that water pays tribute to it. The protective
tariff stirs up the intellect of men. 1t brings
them into competition with each other and
the world. Tom Reed.

says, in the New York Herald: ''The rails
ing OF funds by leading Democrats to con
test Northwestern States expressly on the
ground that New y ork. taking the most
favorable view, is doubtful, is a panicky

sion that the foredoomed failure of Cleve-

ARMY OF COLONIzERS.
The First, Second ami Fourth District
Gangs Detected

The First. Second ami Fourth District
Gangs Detected.
The prospects are that the awfully good
Republicans whoa hustling "to bring
out the whole yote'' in this county will get
into serious trouble about election dav.
The most palpable discoveries of coloniz-
ing have been made and it will probably
not be consolng to certain Republican
Scamps to know that members of the
Democratic County Committee know
where it has been done and who did it.
Not many stones throw from one of the
largest seats of knowledge in the First
District, colonization has been discov-
cred. The work was done by Republi-
cans and from one house alone forty COL
ored men have been registered. The men
are marked and it is highly probable that
some arrests will be made before election
day arrives.
In the Second district the Republicans
have been cOlopizlng with lmpunity-so
far. Being of the opinion that the DEM
ocratic leaders could be hoodwinked be-
cause of the large Republican majority
there at present they have literally
swarmed the district with colonrz rs
But unfortunately for the Republicans
i the members of the Democratic County
Committee are ION to the game and
have already taken steps to block it
In the Fourth district no stone 10 being
left unturned to down Candidate Hugh
Kelly. Again the Republicans are at
sea. City Collector P. H. O'Neill is out
hustling for Kelly lie knows every
placed Superintendent Smith In possess
sion of some information which will re-
suit in the arrest or a small army Of
colored colonizers.
