DRINKING, DRUGGING AND GAMBLING
The following from the New York Express,
may apply to other localities
Drinking, Dragging and Gambling, VIC have
reason to believe, are carried on to more
irightfu extent in this city than is generally
supposed. Some cases have come under our
notice of which we believe the police are coy
infant, which ought to make young men who
are easily led into temptation tremble tor their
own safety, and compel fathers and mothers to
:;now great deal more than they do of the
places in which their sons pass their nights,
md how they occupy their time. A set OF
larpies are always ready to allure his class
INTO the gambling hells of the city, and when
there to turn them over to the tender mercies
S those who are skillful in the use OF cards and
lice Once in these dens, fitted up as they
re, with all the glare and glitter Of attractive
2rt, with counters and tables spread with
;hice wines and viands, the temptation is
doubtly great, to sacrifice all that one has, and
I'll that he can command Young men who
2ave spark Of love for home, friends par
entail kindness, should shun all such seductions
IS they would pestilence.

There are foreshadOwings Of some trouble
on the subject Of the fisheries on the coast
of the British provinces, consequent on the
termination OF the Reciprocity Treaty yet
we hardly think any great or lasting mis-
chief VII cone. The following from the
London Post of March 18th, Is On indica-
ton Of English sentiment worth noticing:
When negotiations were opened at the close OF
the American war Of independence, one Of the
points most strongly insisted upon By John Ad-
ans was the recognition Of the right Of Amer
leans to fish IN all the seas adjacent to their
country. So much importance did he attach TO
this right that lie declared that he would rather
CONTINUE the war forever tAss ebsndon il,
and the treaty of 1888 accordingly embraced
clause recognizing the right of the inhsbitants
Of the United States to fish wherever they had
fsbed before
The question was re-Opened st the conclusion
of the second American war, and the right
claimed received for the Erst time limitation
by the treaty signed on the Doth Of October,
1918. Messrs- Rush and Gsllatin, the commits
siolfrs on behalf ofthe United States, while re-
tanning ia right Of entering bays and creeks
for the purpose q repairs and OF curing their
fish and drying their nets, snd also the general
right to fish, abandoned its exercise sistin the
limit Of thrss miles from the coasts, bays and
creeks Of the provinces. This state of things
continued for some twenty years. but in lS41
complaints began to be made of encroacbnrnts
and trespssses by American fishing boats, and
among other things it VS. asserted that they

EDMuNDs of this city to fill the vacancy in

assembling of the Legislature next October.
Mr.. Edmunds is a man of well known ability,
and of experience in the State Legislature. No
one who knows him can doubt that he will
maintain high rank in the U. Senate,
and that his voice and vote will be in ae-
cordance with the principles which dwell IN

Of this State
