Business on Bangor and Aroostook Railroad.
Waterville Mail.)

A Waterville man who has recently
travelled over the Bangor & Aroostook
railway says that few persons except
those who live in the vicinity of it have
any idea of the amount Of business that
the road starts off with. 1t was thought
at first that sufficient provision had been
made for rolling stock to meet all the re-
quirements of the probable traffic but
events have shown that the estimates
were all too small. The present equip
ment cannot take care of the everyday
shipments that are offered the company
for transportation. The freight houses
along the line are crammed full of ner-
chandise waiting for cars. The people Of
the section through which the road runs
are naturally very much pleased to have
it prosper and they give it their preference
in almost every case when it comes to a
question of whether the A. & p. or the
c. p shall have the benefit of their freight
business The new road is a great thing
for Aroostook and it is also bound to be
IA good thing for the men who had the
courage to go ahead and build it.

The union of church and state and the
much prophesied liberalism of the new
Car of Russia do not appear in such ia
vorablc light since Nicholas ii, has or
dered the decree against the Stundist
movement to be put in force. The Stund-
lists are Protestants, much resembling Bap-
lists and Methodists in this country, and
comprise membership of about $50, 900,
chiefly confined to the district of kherson
on the Black sea. The decree declares the
Stundst movement dangerous to church
and state, and forbids prayer meetings.
The general impression is gaining ground
that any civilizing movement which in
cludcs possibility of welfare for the whole
people of that benighted country is IN
the eyes of Russian rulers dangerous to
church and state. -

AMONG THE DUTCH.
A Peep at the Grotesqueiy Picturesque In.
habitants Of Holland.

What most enchanted me, though, at
my first sight of Vlisscngen was the group
of burlesque poasantry assembled on the
pier to watch the coming OF the steamboat,
SAYS q correspondent of the Boston Herald,
writing from Holland. At least, my first
thought was that they were burlesquers
who had perhaps been stranded in the low
countries by the defalcation of an errant
manager for had never seen such won
drous beings, except upon the burlesque
stage, or at Mr.. Harrigan's delightful

music halls, but it was soon made mani
fest that these We're not caricature Hol-
.anders, but genuine ones. And, what
was more, l soon discovered that the bur
iesque Dutchman is not nearly so droll as
the genuine one.
They wore vast, ungainly breeches, as
big as barrels at the hips and tapering
down to reasonably small dimensions at
the bottoms. They wore short jackets
tabulously bedecked with ornamental
braids and silver buttons as big as the
heels of a policeman's boots. They had
big heads, with tiny caps perched on their
crowns Their oakum colored hair was
chopped across half way up the backs'of
their heads, and on their feet they wore
the traditional wooden vessels as big as
young canoes The men are certainly the
irollest specimens that one ever beheld,
out the women are picturesque dears-not
,ovely, but as l say. picturesque They
were swathed in skirts as huge as hogs
heads. They wore upon their shoulders
some SORT of lace flligree which evades the
descriptive powers of poor male chron'
icier Their heads were set in bands of
silver and of gold, these covered too, with
iligrce Of lace, while fixed into the CAP

Pot and Kettle Controversy.

There is going on lively discussion,
Hill Democrats in New York, as to the
relative merits of Cleveland and Hill, and
the proportion of their responsibility for
the recent defeat and present fallen con-
dition of the Democratic party. T. r.
Wheeler. the anti-Hill candidate for gov
ernor in Harper's Weekly, maintains that
Cleveland is patriot and statesman, on
whom rests not the shame and quit OF
Democratic disaster and suicide. But
another anti Hill Democrat, an ADLER and
more incisive writer than Wheeler. plain
Iy shows that Cleveland must share with
Hill. their New York defeat He proves
beyond all chance for cavil or dispute,
that Cleveland has played fast and loose
with Tammany, and for the sake OF his
own promotion has consented to use all
the baser elements and corrupt leaders OF
his party in and outside of New York
The criticisms and seedlings of the Cleye-
land mugwumps about Hill may be true
enough. but they apply with even more
force to their gross and unscrupulous
favorite 1t is a plainly obvious repeti-
ton of the old dispute between the kettle
and the pot, as to the degree OF their Dlack-
ness. The Democratic overthrow has
been as decisive in other states as in New
York, thus plainly showing that Cleve-
land has been as cmphatically repudiated
in the country at large as Hill has been
in his own state. Years ago Cleveland
we'll knew the character of Tammany
hall and used its power in his own sup
port. He knew it well when he sent the
$1,000 check to promote the election OF
the notorious Fellows, whom the respect
able citizens were trying to defeat. He
has made Tammany his agent, less frank
ly and more hypercritically than Hill, but
ly.
1t is as absurd as it is false for the po-
Iitical editor of Harpers Weekly and other
mugwump organs to argue that the Pres
cnt occupant of the Washington White
House in private moral or public conduct
is superior to his rival, the senior sena-
tor of New York. BY his repeated al
liances with Tammany, Cleveland has
shown his utter want of moral sense, as
plainly as he did when he tried his ut
most, by the use of the most unjustifiable
means, to restore the Liliuokalani bar
barrie dynasty and the royal ring of adj
venturers in Hawaii as corrupt and more
filthy, if possible, than the Lexow inves-
tigation shows Tammany to have been in
the most prosperous days of Cleveland,
Croker and Hill.

Women are coming into successful
competition with the men in architecture.
Two New York women drew the plans
that were accepted for a hospital to be
built in San Francisco. 1t would seem at
first thought desirable that women archi-
tects should cooperate with the men,
especially in the designing of homes, ar
rangement of the domestic apartments
etc. The soberer second thought, how
ever. is likely to convince one that these
women know as little as the men of the
domestic part of home. They may have
inherited tastes that would aid them
in designing, but these inherited qualities
will soon be cultivated out of existence.
