Portland, Me, Aug Notwithstanding the
general agitation in Canada against Portland

The agitation was so pronounced chat pessi-
mstic business men here feared that Portland
would be seriously injured, but a careful in

there would be loss in traffic. The Grand

Saratoga Aug. 24.-When Senator Edgar I.
Bracket was asked to-day what effect Sen
atcr McCIelIand's resignation would have on the
action of the three insurgents" in the State
Senate he replied:
None whatever that l can discover If the
three Senators whom you pleased to call
insurgents were attempting TO secure some ad-
vantage to themselves by their action. the cleo
ton of a Republican Senator to succeed Sem
ator McClellanG would be Of great consequence.
but they are not. They simply have attempted
and will continue to attempt. to represent their
several districts instead of representing any in
dvdual outside of such districts.
There never has been a moment when the
three Senators. named the insurgents, have OPP
posed Mr. Platt simply for the sake of opposi-
ton They simply found a system under which
Republican Senators were expected to represent
Mr. Platt and not their constituents. to pass any
measure that members of his family were re-
tanned to favor. whether they appealed to good
Judgment or not: in short to do what they were
told to do They declined to accede to such die
tation and decided to be representatives in fact
as well as in name
Senator Bracket said that he considered Mr.
Platt neither infallible all powerful, and
added:

wise man but l quite sure that as long as

Senator Bracket also charged that Mr.. Platt
and his few adheTents were busy, beak and
claw. trying to defeat the Republican nominee
for Assembly in Fulton County because he was
not one of their kind" He also said that out
of all this will. and must come a better condi-
ton of affairs better for the State and better
