A Washington1 special says: The nomination of Blaine by the Repub lican convention has set the Demo crats to loeking: over the list of avail able candidates for a man who can be counted on to keep in the Democrat ic party the large element that looks . favorably upon Blaine and his record on the Chinese question. In casting about for such a man the name of Benjamin F. Butler looms up more conspicuously than any other name mentioned in connection -with the Democratic nomination. The feeling against Blaine in New York and Massachusetts Btrengthen3 the Butler boom, and it is claimed," and good reasons are given in support of the claim, that Butler is the only man who can carry Massachusetts; that he, and he alone of all the Democratic candidates, could retain in tho Democratic party that large element among the work ing classes in every state in the Union who admire the dash and pluck of the Maiue statesman, and who look upon him as a sure companion of the working classes.

Six canneries will not pack at all, end a short run on Frazer river is consider ed certain by men who have watched the runs lor many years in the north ern rivers. The spring run is over and ha3 proved a partial failure. All things point to a shortage of from 80,000 to 100,000 cases. . NEW TO-DAY.

THE Ir Cinciuuatus, with a couple of hia long-lioni steers and his old-fashioned straight-beamed plowywith its wooden spike driven through, simply to tickle the ground, had been out at Fargo recently, when the Dakotans were breaking the virgin soil with a steam plow, the old gentleman would most likely have sent a special to Washing ton advising that the new people of the Northwest be admitted into the Union at once. With his rig Cincin natus could not have broken one acre a year in Dakota. In prairie countries, like Dakota and Iowa, the plowing field is often the whole length of the farmer's quarter section of land that is, a half mile furrow. And at the first plow ing or breaking of the soil it takes a man with four horses or four oxen, and a boy to drive them, a day to break a little over an acre. An acre and a half a day is good work. And it is hard tugging for man and ani mal and plow. The new sulky plows, by which a man takes his seat on the plow a good deal as he does in a road sulky, made it far easier for the infin, but ;i littlo heaviei for the beasts. By the ar rangement jyxni. triad, ut T?a.rgo trac tion steam engine draws eight plows after it and instead of one acre breaks twentj-five acres a day. Break ing by the old method is worth $3 an acre and it is held that the steam plow can afford to break at Si an acre. The main advantage of course is in tue fact that by this saving a great many men are freed from manual labor and sent into politics, while two-thirds of the agriculturist's capi tal is left for free speculation. Under the heading "A Beacons- field beyond the seas," the London Pall Mall Gazelle of the 7th, says: "Blaine's nomination is the most notable event for England since Lin coln was assassinated. "Wherever Blaifle can oust the British from po sitions they hold on the American continent he will use his influence. His menacing intimation that he dis regarded the Clayton-Bulwer treaty is an evil augury for the future rela tions of England and America. His intervention in Peru is most ominous. Then he has declared that he disliked England to win commercial triumphs in fields belonging to America. Eng land watches with extieme solicitude tho progress of the campaign."

TnEitn wero several noticeable points about the convention that nominated Elaine at Chicago last week It -was composed of the larg est number of delegates that ever assembled in a national convention in this country; it nominated the man who was the strongest at the start; it had for temporary chairman a negro; it had as one of the chap lains who opened the sessions with prayer a Eoman Catholic priest; and it selected for the first time in twen ty-four years, a man who had nothing to do with the rebellion, except in a civic capaoity.

It is now charged that Blaine taught school in early life, and was afterward editor of a newspaper, but it is hardly fair to bring up those in discretions of a man's early career against him, just because he happens I to be running for president. Bkaixe is the first candidate for the presidency who wrote a book on the eve of the campaign. That same book is a tremendous success, and presidency or no "presidency, its gift ed author will clear $500,000 from its sale. If congress does not take some action in regard to the extradition treaty with Canada pretty soon there will be enough American bank officers on Dominion soil to steal the whole confederation.
