WHAT THE HALF BREEDS WANT
Toronto Mail: The half breeds in the st
Laurent district complains that the dominion
has treated them badly, and we think It has:
Under tho Manitoba act of lssocach half breed
born in that province before July Of that
year was granted 24O acres of land free, in sat
isfaction OF what may be termed the half
breed title. But beyond the con-
fines Of Manitoba lay few half-brced set
tlements, for the inhabitants of which no
provision was then made; nor, indeed, was
any demanded at the time. St Laurent,
one Of these, was established as long ago as
1852, and is . fairly prosperous place The
first demand for consideration was preferred
by the colonists ten years ago, when they
asked TO be placed on the same footing al
regards free homesteads as the Metis Of Man.
itoba Later on, when the dominion surveyors
appeared in tho country, q fresh grievance
sprung mp. Tho half-breeds, IS was the
French custom. had settled along tho rivers,
each farm having a narrow water frontage,
and extending far back IN the form OF long
parallelogram The surveyors were, OF course,
compelled to destroy this arrangement of the
holdings, and the people earnestly protested
against it. They also renewed their claim fol
grants Of 240 acres per capita, and from thai
day to this the agitation has been maintained

THE ANARCHISTS. MISTAKE.

The Anarchists make blunder
when they count on the support of any
great number of dissatisfied Americans.
Americans sometimes get very poor.
and are just as discontinued with
poverty as are poor people in any
other county, but they will lend no
assistance to any scheme of pilage or
destructioM They will combine to
test their own rights, and hold.up the
wages Of their trade, but will take no
part in destroying accumulations of
property and preventing, tor them,
selves, the possibility of attainment.
Underour system of government it is
possible for any citizen to ACHIEVE
political distinction, and the knowledge
HAT some turn of the wheel of Fortune
may bring wealth, keeps the poor man
from feeling the hopeless jealousy
which exists amcng the suffering poor
of Europe. Every henest, industrious
man IN America, with the possible
exception of the country editor, may
reasonably hope to make enough to
place him above toll or want, and
while this state OF affairs exists the
anarchists are sowing the seetis OF
revolution on barren SOIL

In a recent libel suit in Rhode
Island, the Chief Justice laid down the
law in his chBrge to the jury as fol-
lows: II think that public news
paper has right to comment upon
and criticise in the discharge of public
duties. think that # the publishers
discover what they consider to be de-
fects, they have the right to point them
out. If there are facts which suggest
fault, think that the public press has
right to criticise and censure. If, in
the exercise of this freedom of com
mcnt they act fairly and honestly and
meaning to do what is right, they can
not he held accountable. Ii is OF great
importance to tho public that the
newspapers should have this liberty
If there should be none to censure or
to crilicise, frauds would grow more
intoerable, to the manifest peril of
the public welfare, and, therefore, you
can see that the public have a great
interest in maintaining unshackled the
rights of the public press to freely and
,airly criticise."

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.


from President Monroe's seventh Annual
Message, Dec. 3 1891
The citizens of the United States
cherish sentiments the most friendly IN
favor Of the liberty and happiness OF
their fellow men on that side OF the
Atlantic. In the wars OF the European
powers, in matters relating to them.
selves, we have never taken any part,
nor does it comport with our policy to
do so. 1t is only when our rights are
invaded or seriously menaced that we
resent injuries or make preparations
for our defense. With the movements
of this hemisphere we are OF necessity
more Immediately concerned, and by
causes which must be obvious to all
enlightened and impartial observers.
The political sytem OF the allied pow
ers is essentially different in this
respect from that of America. This
difference proceeds from that which
exists in their respective governments.
And to the defense of our OWE, which
has been achieved by the loss of so
much blood and treasure and malured
by the wisdom Of their most enlight-
ened citizens, and under which we
have enjoyed unexampled felicity, this
whole nation is devoted. We owe 1t,
therefore, to candor and to the AMIGA
BILE relations existing between the
United States aud those powers, to
declare that we should consider any
attempt ON their part 10 extend their
system TO any portion Of this heml-
sphere as dangerous to our peace and
safety. With the existing colonies'or
dependencies of any European power
we have not interfered and shall not
Interfere. But with the Governments
who have declared their independence
we have, on great consideration and
ust principles, acknowledged we could
OF view any inieposition for the pur-
pose Of depressing them, or controlling
In any other manner their destiny, by
any European power, in any other
light than as the manifestation Of an
unfriendly disposition toward the
United States.

NAY LEARN FROM EACH OTHER.

Mathew Arnold, short time ago, in
an article on his impressions in Amer.
lea suggested that England adopt
system of representation, in substance
like our State Legislatures. He pro,
poses to retain the General Parliament
and divide the Islands INTO districts,
which should have legislative assem-.
blies for local government. In this
matter oflegislation and representation
the two nations may learn from each
other. Some time ago political econ.
omist suggested that the United States
adopt the plan of Great Britain in Sc
lecting its. House of Commons. There
4 member may be returned from any
borough, regardless of his actual resi-
dence. In this way their most capable
men are enabled to assist in making
the laws The able men are not
showed aside by local jealousies or
epmities, as is often the case here, and
the country has the benefit of its best
talent. This had been ratified by ex-
perience in England, when our exper'
iment of local legislatures began; the
latter has. proved successful and now
each country might profit by an ex-
change of ideas.
