Ntw Yokk, September 4.?A dispatch
iroiir Kllsworth, Me,, to the Mail and
KxprtM says: Your correspondent has
interviewed the Hon. James G. Blaine,
*t Senator Halo's residence, in this
"Mrillhtly town. Mr. lilaine is in tine
forni, aud evervwhore he goes the pooHe
of the i'ine Tree State flock to welwoe

. -"r. Hlaitu* said in eflfect that the fish*
1DK season is over; nearly all the Americ*n
vowels have returned, and Canada
have none to operate upon till tin
summer of 1SS9. In the meantime any
"U?K she may or may not do iH a mattei
supreme iudiilerenco to the tlshor
a??u. Therefore it is better not t4
clothc the present President with any
additional powers, since he hits shown
his utter incompetency to deal with the
general subject, but let hiui carry out
the present law, us he is !>ound to do,
and thin alone may bring Canuda to her
senses and secure us justice at her
hands. For Republicans to vote'for the
bill rej>ortcd bv Mr. Belmont's committee
in the lionse of Representatives
would be a confession by them tliut
the President's conduct in refusing
to carry out the present law was
justified', and would put a power
into his hands which he would wield for
partisan purposes. It is much better to
let the matter lie over till the new Administration
shall come in, which will
be better prepared to handle the mutter,
free from the excitements of our pending
political contests and in amnle time
to protect every interest. To allow the
President, now to stop the export business
of Canada through the United
States would seriously interfere with
several of our home transportation lines,
fn|it*ci?lIy tlio.su leading to Portland, '
and correspondingly depress the entire
com merer of tint* port. It would also i
afford Canada a pretext for increasing
her demands in retaliation for such inhibition,
and render more dillicult the
general settlement by negotiation. The
rights of the Pacific Coast should also be
remitted to the new-Administration.

Ueneral Harrison's arrival here '
to-day, after a brief but enthusiastic j
lemonstration at the depot, lie was escorted
by Lieutenant Governor Robert- I
ion and the other members of the re- !
jcption committee to Hamilton Square,
which is a grove situated onlv two i
docks from the depot. Here under the i
stately oaks a stand had been erected I
mil a large and promiscuous crowd <
greeted the distinguished guest. It wan I
several hours before the noise and t
beers abated, when General liarrisou iu j
i strong, clear voice, spoke as follows: (
ilk? I.'imuviw?I do?ire to thank vou f
for this cordial demonstration. I thank <
you, not so iiiiiuii for myself iw for the \
party to which most of us Jjayo given |
the consent of our minds. 1 aui glad to \
know that the people are moved to a t
thoughtful consideration of those quea- c
liou8 which are (his year presented for j
their determination. Under a popular *
government like ours, it is of the first t
importance that every man who votes, i
ihould iiave some reason for his vote { }
that every man who attaches himself to j
this op that political party should under- i
jtand both flip creed and the purposes t
jf the party to wljJcJf Jjp belongs. I i
think it is universally conceded?pqn- I
:eded by Dejnocrat* as well as by Her t
publicans?that the questions involved 'j
n this campaign have a decided bearing i
upon the i
N \TlON.\l( PUQSI'KIUTY,

This much i.s conceded. I do not intend (
to-day to argue the question in any de- J
tail," I want to call your attention to a '
few general farts and principles, and 1
blio first one?the one J. never tire of
mentioning, the one I deem uo iiwpop- 1
tyjit, that I do not shun the charge that
I am *opeating myself, is this: That the
condition ot the ija^e-workers of Amer- '
ica is better than that oi the wage-workurd
of any other country in the world,

more goods will come in from abroad
than Mine in now. And what is the ne- i
sessary effect? Jt is the transfer to for- <
aign shops of work that you need now. j
i? i- ? diminish American nroteptjon 11
ami increase Kuglisl) prodqctfon. 'J'hat *
is to bo the effect of it. It i
is not worth while to stand upon Jibe >
nice distinctions as to Free Trade, Some I
think it enough to say that they are not
Free Tnuler.s, because they are not in
favor of abolishing jill customs duties. J
J,ot me remind such thatthu FfVO Trade
countries of Europe, recognized jq he 1
hucIi, have not abolished all customs duties.
A better distinction is this: The I
Free Trader believes in levyingeustofns I
duties without regard to the effect of
these duties upon the
WAtife? OF OUK WORKING PEOPLE, ,
or upon the production of our own
shops. This, then, is the issue,. Take :
it to your homes. There are many confusing
ami contradictory statements 1
made in the publin press. Ask any of
those who aswail our protective system
whether they do not believe that if their
policy is adopted a larger amount of
foreign made goods will come into this
country, it is their purpose U) |n- 1
increase invportution in order to
cheapen prices. I think I may
safely ask you to consider '
the question whether this cheapening Of
prices, which they seem to regard as the
highest attainment of statesmanship, is
consistent with the ruu* pf wages that
our working people enjoy nowj whether
it will not involve?it we are to have
foreign competition without favoring
duties?a reduction of American wages
ti.? utiiniiiml nf th<? u'iivi'u naitl
abroad. [Applause.] Do you believe
for one moment that the two factories
milking (bo fiflrno product can be maintained
in competition when'one pays .'(3
per cent more to itH workiugwe/) than
the other?
It js not certain that wages will bo
equalized in these competing establishments,
or the one paying the highest
wagest must shut down. [Applause/}nd
cries "That's the thing!'*] May I not
appeal to you to review these questions?,
to throw oil* tb? shackles of
preconceived notions uud pf party
prejudices, and consider them now
in the light of ail the information that
isacccssablo to you? It you pjjall do
that 1 do not doubt that the working
people of this country will this November
forever settle the question that
American custom duties shall by inteui
tioii, by forethought, have regard to
| the wages of oui workiug people. [Applause.]

support of the bill. He replied to the
argument made yesterday by Mr. (.ieorge,
throwing the responsibility for the pres
Mice ui uiu i/inncse uu uiu jtcpumit-uu
party. II/? disclaimed such responsibility
and defended the course of Mr.
Harrison in his votes in the Senate on
the anti-Chinese legislation. The Republican
candidate for the Presidency
had occupied the same position on the
Chinese question as lie (Teller) had always
occupied, and was as sound as any
mau in the world on Jhe
question of Protection to American
labor, whether against the
pauper labor of Kurope or the pauper
labor of China.
Mr. Payne inquired whether the Central
Pacific company, of which Mr* Stanford
was President, had not imported ;
Mongolians to build their road.
Mr. Teller?No sir, nor any other rail- 1
oad. As to the pending bill, he men- i
ioned the remarkable fact that it had !
jeen passed by the House Without ref- I
irence to a committee, and that it had i
>een introduced not by a member of the j
oaunittee on Foreign affairs, but by a
nan who in no sense, and under no
lircuinstances had the right to speak
or American labor. If he were to look 1
?ver the House to select a man who
,\ou!d most fitly represent the American
>eople he would hardly select that man i
vho had succeeded in getting that bill j
h rough the Mouse jn hifste. He had
inly succeeded because he was a high ,
>riest in the Democratic church. It was I
aid of him (Mr. Scott) that he had given <
en times as much money to tho Demo- ]

Washington, Sept. 4.?Simultaneously
,vith the transmission of the President's
eeent retaliation message to Congress a ]
private communication was transmitted
jy tho Government of the (Juiced States j
jo the British Government at London, :
issuring it that it need have no anxiety 1
is to any oflicial action that would be |
aken under the authority that the
['resident had asked of Congress if it
should be granted. Assurance was
ziveh that tjie United States would furiii.nli
no casus belli jn connection with |
huso matters. ' j
This explalnc the cable dispatch from
London announcing, from a sourue of '
the highest authority, that Canada had 1
been ordered from the Foreign Oflice to J
back down and ask for some arrange- ]
inenfc which will prevent trouble with
the United States, no matter at what
^ost of concession qn the Dominion's
part. Jt also throws light on the (lis- ;
patches from panada, showing that
while some Government ojijcials there
lire rauting and attempting to excite the ,
people, the Canadian authorities, who '
are directly responsible for the policy of 1
tlje Government, are playing a diUerent i
tune from th;?t of a few weeks ago.
There are more than intimations that
the United States has only to ask for
what it wants and it will get it. '
LON'l?().V NKWSl'Al'KU POLICY KXI'LAINKIJ.
In addition to this it explains the attitude
of the semi-oflicial newspapers of
lfopdi)u, which changed tho character
of their comments mjon the President's
nets, after the publication Of Jiiy retaliation
message, as suddenly as the President
changed, or pretended to change,
the policy of his Administration after
the rejection of the Bayard treaty by the
Senate. Previous to that time the'loading
London jonjuals in sympathy with
the Government 'could pot find" words
Btfojiif enough, in which to express
theirj admiration for ('resident Cleveland,
lor his, J/reo Trade doctrines
and for his success in- forcing his
party, against its will, to make
this uuefltion the issue of the great national
campaign. The next day after
this adulation appeared, which had been
constantly repeated and pouched in as
many different terms as the" editors of
those papers were able to construct,
tlu\se same journals declared that the
President'? retaliation message was a
political Btnjcc, the purpose <<f which
was to capture the Irish American vole,
and from that day to this the whole
tenor of comment ju the senu-olllcial
journals of London has not changed.
There lias been a concert of accusation
of the President for the disgraceful attempt
lie haw made to manufacture politiiMil
oiiiiitnl in n diuhoilCfit Wav.
To-day the Democratic party controls
the more popular and more powerful
branch of Congress by a majority that
their opponents cannot hope to overcome
upon any quostiQU that may come
before that body and upon winch the
great political parties arc divided. The
adnunistj-atiye department is absolutely
dictator in every act by a president and
a political party that not oji!y apurnsall
advice or respectful suggestions from the
Republican party, winch, fortunately,
rarely gives it except in the constitutional
way, in public debate and upon
great national or international questions.
in which the responsibility of the
Senate is equal to that oi tho House of
Representatives.
PL'Ptyy A REPUBLICAN1 SUCCESS.
In spite of all theseobptaeles the Republican
party has adhered to its traditional
policy, ami by its calm, consist*
eut and wise action nas not ouiv prevented
the President from grossly outrugiug
the rights of citizens of the United
States by the Bayard treaty, but he has
forced President Cleveland, tnestroDRcst
man and the most skillful politician that
the Democratic party has had iu the
last half century, to reverse his policy,
or to pretend to do it?for the evidence
is conclusive that it is only a pretense
to adopt, or pretend to adopt, a line of
action which the Republican party has
urged both in season and out of seusou,
ana which, at the dictation of the President,
every Democratic Senator opposed;
but by its simple vote rejecting the Bayard
treaty, the Republican party has
forced England to the feet of the United
States as it has never been forced before
since John Adams, in 1783, brought his
list down upon the table around which
the American and British commissioners
wit, and with his American associates
dictated the terms upon which Great
Britain should recognize the nationality
of the United States.
The trick of President Cleveland has
been thoroughly and completely ex- .
posed. His attempt to turn the great
Presidential campaign from the issue j
that he had himself made and upon .
which lie saw certain defeat staring him 1
in the face, into a new channel, hasdis- i
gracefully failed. Congress will grant ]
to the President all the power he asks .
for and which it can constitutionally
give. The Republican party will fur- '
nish him no shadow of an excuse for t
neglecting to put into operation the pol- ]
icy he has pretended to adopt; but ,
brave as he is, skillful politician that lie
it*, no win noi ciare 10 useuiu jjuww umi
will bo conferred upon him, and the Be- (
cret communication to the JJritish For- i
eign Oliico proves this beyond all ques- <
tion.
When Mr. Cleveland and the Demo- 1
cratic partv appealed to the country in t
behalf of Free Trade the country an- j
swered more than two months before
the ballots are to be cast, that it will
have none of it. Discovering how j?o\v- 1
ericas he is with the free people, by a r
disgraceful trick he attempts to steal the ^
credit for the wise and now startlingly .
successful polio v of the Republican partv
by attempting to adopt it. As MrIhurman

For some time a type of fever, which
is new to the medical profession, and
with which they have never met in
their practice, 'has been prevailing
here. The disease resembles bilious
and gastric fever, and is very obstinate
to treat, and in a few cases has
assumed a typhoid nature. While a
great many have been sick, there have
been hut two deaths, and in both cases
the fever developed into typhoid.

National, State and County Committees, u
.Senator Quay, Chairman of the ttepub- c

Saturday to keep the headquarters clos- ^

day for themselves. It was not until a
after this had beceme generally
known that Colonel Brico, of the
Democratic National Committee, also
ordered the building over which he li
nrenides to be kept closed. Since Mr.
Thurman telegraphed that the West and j
Northwest were surely going to General '
Harrison, and to put all their work in c
this State, the deepest kind of gloom c
has settled around the Democratic .
headquarters, but with the assistance of J

with its influence and aid save the Na

I that Senator Quay had written to Mr. t

i? his utterances on trusts were unsatishu- t

t as ridiculous lies, and the story will
