Ed. Register-The st. Louis ReDub.
ticdn is q great newspaper. It's editors
are men of talent. 1t is usually con-
spicuousiy right. But it hrs the frail-
ty incident to genius. to be sometimes
conspicuously wrong.
1t is just now indulging in one of its
hallucinations. Rambling Randall
and free trade tendencies now seem to
limit its horizon.
We regret to have to advise our ven-
erable neighbor that in these it does
not express the views or wishes of the
solid Democracy of the country.
The Republican ought to be wise
enough to know that the Democracy
never would have regained power on
its and the Waterson theory of the
Tariff. 1t was only by little of the
Randall salt with which the Chicago
Platform was seasoned, and his stub
born resistance to Morrison's "Horri-
zontal Gut" last winter, that gave US
the victory in November.
And yet the Republican does not
give evidence of having either learned
ar forgotten anything.
While we do not indorse all Mr..
Randail's views, by any means, es-
pecially as to Internal Revenue, still
we think the views of the Republican
are fatally dangerous and their adop-
ton by the party would conslgn it to
eternal ostracism from power.

The Nicaraguan Treaty.

We find the six leading provisions ol
the treaty between the United States
and Nicaragua relating to the eonstruc.
ton of canal and railroad through the
territory of the latter country, eonyen-
iently summarized as below:
/. The United States shall build canal
across the Isthmus Of Nicaragua, the canal
ed States and Nicaragua.
That is. Nicaragua gives the right OF
way and the United States pays the
expense of building, as the respective
stocks of the two government in the
partnership; and OF, this basis they be-
come joint owners of the finished work.
2. A perpetual alliance between the two
countries, the Udited States guaranteeing
the integrity of Nicaragua's territory.
This is rather a new feature in the di-
plomacy four government. Itamounts
practically, TO undertaking protecto-
rate of Nicaragua. 1t seems necessary,
however, for tine protection of the prop
erty interest of the United States in
the canal.
8. Nicaragua grants to the United States
right of way, by land and water, for the canal,
for railroad and for telegraph lines, the
United States to indemnify private owners il
their property is taken.
Both the grant by Nicaragua and the
indemnity by the United States are
upon the same principle as that which
governs right-of-way grants in railroad
building by private enterprise i'm this
country.
4. A strip of land two and half miles
wide along the line of the cana. is to be joint
ly owned by the two countries, Nicaragua to
have civil Jurisdiction over it.
This is merely definition of the linn
its Of the property Jointly owned by the
two governments. Nicaragua does not
ALLEVIATE any of her territory.
3. The canal tolls are to go two thirds to
the United States and one third to Nicaragua.
Joint ownership involves Joint re-
sponsib.lity. Besides her share of this
responsibility, Nicaragua has granted
to the United States privilege. Her
ons-third of the toll of canal construct
ed by the United States is concession
for these considerations.
0. The United States to loan Nicaragua
,0oo, 900, to be paid in frequent instaliments.
The loan is to be repaid from Nicaragua,s
share of the canal tolls.
This is an accommodation loan with
out direct diplomatic consideration.
Nicaragua guarantees ths title of the
grant against all claimants, guaranty
which involves the ahrogation of the
Clayton Rulwer treat.
Nicaragua Is to levy no customs du-
ties, but may enforce police system
along the course of the canal.
Providing, as it would, new and
convenient channel for the growing
commerce between two extreme sec
tions of the union, and new bond Of
interest between their people, it seems
IA good treaty. unless the estimated ex-
pense of the project. 500, ,000, 900, be
objected to.-Burtington HaaOk-Ey

Gibbon says that every man receives
two educations: one acquired from
others, the other more important which
he gives himself. And it may be ad-
the study of himself to ascertain his
capacities ard the best mode OF bring
ing them into play.
This will require some time after he
has been educated by others, SO that
he may enter on life successfully.
And it is well always in connection
with system of Common School Edu-
cation to leave some room for private
enterprise.

A Psalm of brotherhood.
BY SHERMAN d. RICHARDSON.

BY SHERMAN d. RICHARDSON.
God bless the man that judges man
With just yet kind decision;
And never shows his weakness up
To folly's cheap derision.
That makes the Golden Rule his law
OF life above all others.
Forgetting self in earnest zeal
To better make his brothers.
That never brings another down
To build his fortune higher,
Or step before him in the race
To gain vain desire.
That enyies not when others toll
Because their work is better,
Or seeks to use the little flaws
Their good design to fetter.
That sees the good before the bad,
That magnifies no failing;
Whose speech is bright encouragement
And never bitter railing.
Who uses all his noble life
In work the Master giveth,
And sleeps at last beneath the words:
"His deed forever liveth."

An Accommodating Host.

A few years since st. Paul drum
mer was travelling across Dakota in
what the proprietor proudly designated
a stage, but which was merely a
dilapidated and rickety hack drawn by
two sad and pensive mules. He had
breakfasted at daybreak, and as noon
approached his stomach frequently
chided him for his seeming neglect to
look after its wants. The driver time
and again assured him that they would
get q good dinner at 'sTom Sayles'
ranch, whar' thar, was a station" and
In anticipation of sumptuous repast
he possessed his soul in patience and
tried to be content.
About two o'clock in the afternoon
Sayles' ranch was reached. 1t was
sod house OF considerable proportions,
with stable attachment, standing on the
bank of creek. Sayles stood in tho
dor smoking pipe. He was long,
raw-boned, awkward looking creature.
