Ways That Are Dark"

Patrons of the San Juan lunch stand will remember a bright-looking young celestial with the proverbial smile "that is childlike and bland" who some time ago was engaged Tn waiting on the customers of that place. On Wednesday this innocent looking "cuss" appeared before his
 honor Justice Coakly and lodged complaint against one Hop Sing,
 charging him with robbing him of SI5o. Mir. Sing was arrested and brought before his honor for trial. Alter the prosecuting witness had given in his testimony, and saw to it that his victim was we'll guarded, he sought leave of the court to go away a day or two on important businers, expressing the utmost confidence in
 the ability of his attorney to prose- cute the case to 9 successful issue against that bold bad man, Hop Sing. A telegram from his employer, "Louie," in Winslow, from whom he claimed to have got the money denied that he had paid him that amount or any sum of importance. Other evl- dence tended to show the innocence of Hop Sing and the duplicity of the informer. Defendant was dismissed at request of the prosecuting counsel.

nection with the mother country. But
probably the attachment of majority
of the really influential people in Can
ada to British ideas and methods is too
strong to be overcome by any present
agitation in favor of independence.
The independence of England's great
colonial dependencies, such as the
Canadian Dominion and Australia, is
more likely to come after radical
changes have occurred in the internal
affairs of Great Britain. When the
rule of the English aristocracy, as it
now exists, comes to an end, when suf-
frage is still further extended and land
reform is forced in England, then the
way will be open for national changes
that will render the separation of the
Canadas from the English government
easy of accomplishment

Western Farming.

1t is shown that there is a limit for farm
ers in western farming as well as in other
enterprises. Theodore Roosevelt, who has
spent considerable time in that portion of
the country, says that the big farms out
West have bankrupted most of the rich
men who have tried to run them" Extern
sive farming can only be made profitable
under the most favorable circumstances or
upon lands taken from their primitive state.
The crops are more certain in the East than
in the West, and the risk from this source
less. The tendency of agriculture in the
West is to smaller farms and better cultiva-
ton, and in this the strength of the country
also lies-in the small-hsted farmers"
Dayrimple, of whose large farm in Mime
sofa we heard so much about few years
ago, failed, and his farm went to pieces
before the forces of civilization. He has
succeeded in re-establishing himself again
through a Philadelphia syndicate on 5000
acres of government land at Casselton, near
Fargo, Dakota, but it remains to be seen
how long he can hold on. The occupation
of such large tracts of land by single con-
Germs is detrimental to the rapid settlement
of the country, and it will soon be discov-
cred that the Vermont colony at Loyalton
will have outstripped all such in wealth
and progress Our western lands ought to
be held for actual settlers in limited guam
titles -MeSSen1er

The New Orleans Exposition.

A letter from Colonel Mead, the Vermont
member of the board of managers of the
new exposition at New Orleans, says that
the exposition promises we'll Though it
will not be of the magnitude of the one last
year, it will be of excellent quality and
character and accomplish the purpose of it's
founders and promoters, viz: complete the
patriotic and industrial and social work be-
gun last year; and also, in addition, inau-
gurate at least the work of establishing
friendly commercial relations with the
countries south of us that are in hearty ac-
cord and sympathy with us and the move
ment." A recent circular of the board of
managers says: 1.-THE great park has no
counterpartin loveliness, the immense build
ings are in splendid order and are rapidly
filling with the collective exhibits of thirty
seven states and territories and the private
exhibits of several thousand firms from all
parts of the Union and from other lands,

attractions are here to instruct and enter

delightful weather for the winter, and the
city is being made as attractive as possible
by the people. We are pleased to state that
means of transportation to the grounds,
owing to the new steam railway and the
paved streets, are now most adequate, while
facilities for entertaining visitors are ample

Canadian Annexation and
IndeDendence.

Since race antipathies have been
greatly increased by the Northwest re-
bellion, the execution of Riel, and COM
pulsory vaccination, the disaffected
French element and other classes of
the Canadian people who are not salts
fed with the rule of the conservatives
are discussing the questions of annexa-
ton to the United States and of indie
pendence of Great Britain. Some
months ago it was stated by writer
in the North american Reuie,o that the
majority of the present generation of
native Canadians would prefer annex
alton rather than the government under
which they live. The fact that they
have business and social relations with
our people and would like free access
to our markets, and the conviction that
the general prosperity of the Dominion
would be Immediately increased by an
nexation, operate as strong forces in
the interest of the scheme. The Ca
madam view of annexation looks en-
tirely TO the benefit the Dominion
would derive from the United States
But it is doubtful if the United States
would get as much benefit from the an
nexation of Canadian lands. 1t is not
at all matter of sentiment, but of self
interest. 1t is apparent, however, that
the great majority of the classes re-
ferred to do not desire annexation so
much as independence; and public
opinion in Canada is setting quite
strongly in that direction. Confedera-
ton was the first step and the tariff of
1879 the second step to break the con-

The Contest in Ohio.

The Ohio democrats are making des-
perate efforts to get control of the legis-
lature and defeat the reelection of
Senator Sherman. Their methods are
of the worst. They have resorted to
stealing four senators and ten repre-
sentatives from Hamilton county, but
even if they are able to carry through
this scheme the republicans will still
have three majority on joint ballot in
the legislature. The circuit court at
Cincinnati has rejected the democratic
fraudulent returns, but the democrats
are trying to induce the supreme court
to set aside this finding. The recent
decision of the supreme court, which is
composed of democrats, that the regis
tration law of the state is unconstitu-
tional, is regarded as foreshadowing
another partisan decision by the same
court in favor of the democrats in the
election contests. But even if such
decision will seat the democratic claim
ants the republicans will, as before
stated, have three majority on joint
ballot So the democrats are trying to
secure control in another way. One
of them approached David Stewart, a
mechanic who has been elected from
Licking county, with an offer that if he
would resign he would be given place
in Indiana or Canada with $4,000 a
year and two years. salary in advance.
He rejected the bride with indignation.
Offers of different nature have been
made to other republican members
elect, but in vain. Probably the demo-
Gratis will attempt to defeat the popular
will by other tactics as disreputable,
but they may fail as signally in their

The Presidents Message FOrecasted.

The Tribune'S Washington special says
" The Presidents message makes $4,000
words. Those who have read it say it is
conservative, though on some questions the
President is decided in his views. He has
not changed his opinions on the silver
question, but will reiterate them as ex-
pressed in the letter before he was inaugu-
rated. On the tariff he is represented as
conservative, but favors some notifications
of the existing rates and adding such things
as lumber and salt to the free list, and
recommends changes that will relieve the
antiquities in the present law. The mes
sage is outspoken on the civil service re-
form question, the President expressing his
purpose to extend the system to all branches
of the public service. Legislation in behalf
of the national banks is also recommended,
with the withdrawal of silver and other
certificates. The President thinks that
liberal provision should be made for educat-
ing the Indians in a practical way on their
reservations. He opposes subsidies to
steamship lines, and thinks vessels enjoy
ing the protection of the American flag
ought to be compelled to carry the mails.
On the question of restoring American COM
merce the message has much to say, to the
effect that it cannot be done by subsidies,
but rather by the help of legislation to Sc
cure freer interchange of commodities
with foreign nations. He condemns the
policy of accommodating millions of useless
and, In his OPINION unnecessary, surplus in
the national treasury, which, he says, has
been not less tax, because it was indirectly
and surely added to the cost of the peoples
life. He says the policy of government
should be to care for the peoples needs as
they actually arise and the application of
the remedies as the wrongs appear. The
preservation of the national forests he re-
CARDS as an important matter. He advises
a reform of the consular system and ex-
presses himself at great length on questions
of administrative reform"
