Senator Don Cameron made a speech in the Senate Monday in op position to the repeal till This is . the second speech that Mr. Cameron has ma.'.i during the sixteen years that he has been United States Sena tor. His speech was a Furprise to everybody in the f.rst place that he made a speech, and in the second what he said. The republican papers have o;nei up a fusilade upon him that will n j doubt accomplish his de feat should he aspire to return to the United Stes Senate at the expira tion of his present term. The speech was rea l and eagerly listened to, be cause of the peculiar position taken. The Philadelphia J'ress in comment ing uj-.or. i: says : "It is most humilia ting o state pride that Pennsylvania should I e responsible for placing in the Sen.-.:? a man of so nairow intelli gence ar ! limited information that he can put on paper and esteem it so much wisdom." The refusal of the Dominion Gov ernment to ratify the Stump-Burgess agreement for the better regulation of immigration, after it had been accept ed and ratified by Secretary Carlisle, is likely to lead to the adoption of drastic remedies to prevent evasion of the Foreign Contract Labor law, and to stop the incursions of contract laborers into the United States by way of Quebec In a communication to Deputy Minister Burgess on the subject from Superintendent of Immi gration Stump, the latter has notified the former that, in view of the neglect of his government to accede to an ar rangement, he (Superintendent Stump) would ask the Treasury department to establish such regulations along the frontier as should prevent the entry of immigrants who are excluded by our laws ; or better still, that he would ask the Secretary to promulgate an order directing that all immigrants from beyond the seas, before being permitted to enter the United States shall be landed and inspected at one of the ports of the United States. The Srecipitate haste evinced by the Ca adian i&twajr saf tpmship compa nies in seeking an interview with the Treasury Department officials indi cates that they feel their revenue of $1,000,000 or more per annum, dv rived from this traffic, to be imperiled. They, at least, have no doubt that the more effectual and less expensive measure of prevention is the remedy which is l.kely to be adopted by our Government. This is demanded by the situation, and would be a fitting retort to the lofty dismissal of the sub ject by the Canadian authorities. Why should a tender regard for foreign rail way and steamship magnates influ ence Governmental action ? The law against the importation of contract laborers should be rigidly enforced, whatever loss might in consequence be sustained by Canadian promoters of undesi'able immigration. The Beat Preserves.

(From our Kf (filar ConT'ar,"D'lpr.t ) WASHfNT.TON, Sept. 35, 1893 The Senate is practically in a dead lock, and unless it can be broken all of the democratic legislation which his been promised the people will fail This may appear to be a strong statement, but it is strictly true. When the agreement was reached between those who favor and those who oppose the Vorhees repeal bill to prolong the debate until all who had expresed a wish to speak thereon shall have had an opportunity to do so two weeks or more the acknowledgement was made that the Senate was in a dead lock over that bill ; that it was impos sible to force a vote. If a majority larger than that which the bill for the repeal of the laws authorizing Federal interference with elections or the tariff bill wiU have, cannot force a vote, how can a vote be force 1 upon those measures, or ir.dee 1 upon anv ethers that may be passed by the House and opposed by the solid republican vote in the Senate That is the situation in a nutshell, and disagreeable as it is to democrats it is better to face it than to pretend not to see it. Senators pretend to believe that a vote will eas ily be reached on the Vorhees bill in two or three weeks, but it should not be forgotten that the same men pro fessed to be certain that the same bill would be a law before the fifteenth of September. A ay out of the present dead lock and a preventative of any future dead locks has been placed ready made in to the hands of the democratic Sena tors by Senator Piatt, of Connecticut. That democrats should feel a repug nance towards the adoption of Senator Piatt's resolution providing for a clo ture rule, which is now in the hands of the committe; on Rules, is perfectly natural, s:i.i, it wou.n te we;: :cr them to keep that weapon where it can be used, if all other methods cf proceeding with the business of the peopie sr.au fail. The democratic party expects the demociatic Senators to pass the relief measures the party has pledged itself to pass. The House by the very decisive vote of 142 to 57 decided against al- j lowing clerks at ?6 a day to each cf ( sixteen House committees which rare-, ly ever hold a meeting or transact any , business, and thus put itself on record j as favoring economy in public expen- j ditures no matter where the money is . spent, and also put itself in line with , the administration which declared war j against the sinecures from the f.rst ; day of its existence. j Representative Holman since he be-1 came chairman of the House commit-' t?e on Indian Affairs has gene into I the subject of Indian exr.er.dituies : with his usual thoroughness, and he iiow announces that material reduc tions mav le miHp in -i-r. A:rrtinn j ... v....,. witaout injury to tne interests of either the Indian or the government, and further that he intends to see that they are made in the appropriation bill to be reported from his committee. It is fashionable 10 deride Mr, Holman and his economical ideas, but it is to such men as he that the honor will belong of keeping the democratic par ty from falling into the extravagant habits which played so important a part in driving the republican party from power. As President Cleveland has truly said : "The people of this country must learn to practice econo my, and the example must be set by the government." Representative McCreary is losing no opportunity to convince the mem bers of the House committee on Coin age, to which was referred his bill pro viding for the appointment of a joint Congressional and Commercial mone tary committee to investigate our en tire financial system and report where and how improvements may be made, of the necessity of reporting it favora bly to the iiua m consmitte. is still considering the bill Representative Bynum iias a bill providing for a graduated income tax, which he proposes to use his best ef forts to get reported to the House and passed. The House will to morrow take up the Tucker bill for the repeal of the Federal election laws and the bebate thereon will be continued until Octob er 8th, when a vote will be taken. The majority in favor of the bill will be precisely that of the democrats on the floor the day the vote is taken, as it will receive every democratic vote in the House, and it is not probable thai any democrat will be absent that day unless necessarily compelled to be. Secretary Gresham, who is now in Indiana, is not enjoying his usual good health, and he proposes going to Cali fornia shortly to remain six or seven weeks, hoping that the change will be beneficial. As though enough fakes could not be manufactured in Washingtou con cerning the intention of the adminis tration one was cabled over from France a day or two ago, saying that an agent of this government was nego tiating a $50,000,000 gold loan in Pans, Very naturally Secretary Car lisle regarded it as too preposterous to require an official denial ATTACKING CLEVELAND Senator Stewart Scores the President in a Speech.
