SPURIOUS DEMOCRACY.

New Haven. August l9.-At a Dem
ccratic meeting held tonight, District
Attorney John r. Fellows, Of New
York City, who was one Of the speak
ers, said: II am Democrat, and we
are the true worshippers at the throne
where our fathers knelt. Is Democracy
weather vane that changes its direc-
ton with every gust Of air? You loved
the old Democracy. What was the Chi
cago convention? A revolution. How
shall we know what is the Democratic
party in four years, provided We have
country to hold a convention? BY
its regularity. The Chicago convention
was irregular" He gave a scathing ac-
count Of the doings OF the convention.
He said: This is not the Democracy
Of Jackson and jefferson, and, 50 help
me heaven, will never follow these
new gods. Broad as our land is, there
is no room for those who assail the
fabric Of our laws, and there are ten
millions Of Americans, natives and
adopted, who will march to the death
behind any executive to fight against
such enemies"
Another speaker was Congressman
Lewis Sperry Of Hartford, who said:

Soudan territory ten years ago" Lieut..
Beacdm said, speaking OF his pro-
posed trip, lat the time when Gordon
was killed. and since then the territory
has been under the control Of the
Mahdists. During the past ten years,
the English have sent their officers into
Egypt for service and they have
brought the troops there into a high
state of efficiency, thus paving the
way for a successful Soudanese cam
paign by British troops. From India
5000 native troops have been landed at
Suikim. The main column, composed
Of Egyptian and Indian troops under
English officers, will proceed up the
Nile to the Soudan and will join the

CHELMSFORD DOCK
NOrk Commenced of Unloading the
Steel Rails and FaSteningS.
Traek-Laying TO Commence Today-Ar
Hammond Has Returned-NON the
Time for Energetic Work.

Mr.. A. B. Hammond arrived in the
city Yesterday morning and took the
early boat over TO Flavel where a
careful inspection was made Of the new
docks and hotel. Mr.. Hammond ap-
pears to be in good health notwith-
standing his severe accident last week.
The progress Of affairs on the railroad
seems 10 be satisfactory and no doubt
he will push matters right along while
he is here.
The Chelmsford. the first vessel to
dock at the railroad wharf at Flavel,
tied UP there yesterday and in honor Of
the event the wharf was named the
Chelmsford. 1t was too late in the az
ternoon to commence unloading the
rails, but all Arrangements We made
TO begin this morning. The fiat cars
are on the wharf switch, and will be
promptly loaded and hauled TO the
bridge, where the work Of laying the
rails will commence. 1t is not prob
able now that the track can be laid
into the city until some time during the
first Of the week. The preliminaries
have taken some little time 10 ar
range, but when once started a few
days win suffice to finish the work.
The occasion Of the opening Of the
line between Astoria and Seaside will
mark an important epoch in the history
of the city. To Mr.. A. B. Hammond and
his tireless energy, successful hnancier-
ing in the face of the hardest times
known on this coast, and determina-
ton to push the railroad project and
the auxiliary industries to a successful
establishment, is due the prosperity
now shown in this community, while
other places are marked by a stage
Of inactivity If not actual retrogres-
sion. The business men and citizens
generally of Astoria and Clatsop coun-
~. and in fact the state at large, can
not do too much to supplement and fur
ther the efforts being made by the rail-
road company. The present is the
time for energetic work on all sides
in order TO prepare for and insure the
success Of next years business. That
the characteristic energy and business
foresight Of Astorians will lead them
to do the right thing at the right time,
is a foregone conclusion.
