A QUESTION OF nPInEs. .

The News is very greatly distressed when it
reflects that he who wishes to buy foreign
made articles in preference to those made by
American workmen is ''fned." That is, he
is obliged to pay the import duty, which the
News is pleased to term fine. Taking it in
that view, it is hard to see why such an un-
grateful and unpatriotic citizen should not be
fined. 1t is great pity that the News and its
kind cannot be permitted to buy goods that
are made elsewhere than in the United States
But there are still those who believe that the
American workingman should have this adj
vantage over those of other countries 1t has
to be confessed by all free-traders that their
grief arises from the fact that they are not
allowed to buy elsewhere, though they do not
like to be compelled to state it that way
They never make that kind of argument when
directly addressing the working classes of this
country. and they never will, though they are
occasionally compelled to acknowledge that
that is their grievance. They have in their
minds eye the buyer all the time, and not
the poor maker Of these things. 1t is in this
that they make their great and fatal mistake.
The working men of this country will never
take kindly to the idea of being brought to
the low level of workingmen of other coun-
tries, where they are not nearly so well paid.
This is protection country. and is likely
to remain such as long as wages are higher
here than elsewhere. The News will not sue
coed in deceiving many by its sophistry.
The logic of the situation is against it, and it
cannot hope to mislead any great number of
the men who do not believe, with it, that it
would be better for this country that more
goods manufactured abroad should be i'm
ported,

THE TREATY A FACT.
Canadian Government Organs NO Longer
Deny It's Existence.

Oc'AS ASS Existence.
Ottawa Special to Pittsburg Disnatch
At last the government have come to>their
senses. and have acknowledged that the proposed
treaty, draft of which was published exclusive
~ in the Dispatch, is correct Denials were
found to be useless in the face of the proof
offered To-day the government organs here
admit for the first time, shat negotiations have
been pending, and that. in some unaccountable
manner, the secrethas leaked outn The gov
eminent organ says regardingit:
Your correspondent called upon Sir John A.
Macdonald this evening. BE said that until the
negotiations for reciprocity or other treaty be-
tween the United States and Canada have
reached such point that the draft can be laid
before the legislatures of the communities in
terested, the whole matter is a state secret of
the first Importance For the government he
would not deny that negotiations had been pend
ing, but how far they had progressed he could
not say. Subsequent developmers Is alone would
tell whether the treaty to be proposed to the
United States would be accepted.
The Free Press of this evening saws edi-
torially:
One way for England to ascertain the position and
desires of Canada would be to send to the Dominion
draft of the treaty England has had many communi-
cations With Canada touching the relations of Canada
and the United States that are confidential between
the colony aud the mother country In this matter it
must to be essential in order to come to in
elligent settlement by treaty to know how to dispose
Of the Canadians 1t is therefore probable that draft
of what is thought to be approximate treaty that
would be accepted has been sent basis of paper
that may eventually be offered. We fancy it may
be taken for granted that such paper that spoken
of is actually in existence and that the enterprisng
correspondent of the Pttsburg Dispatch here not
so far wrong after all.
The truth of the whole matter Is that the treaty
will substantially reproduce the expired clauses of the
Washington treaty and provide for system of re-
ciprocity in addition, which will remove the favorte
objection by the Americans to the old treaty being
one-sided. 1t urged that reciprocity practically
confined to natural produce gave Canada an immense
advantage in the bargain but the proposed treaty in
throwing in several now lines of manufactures weak
the force of that objection By our neighbors
In the face of the above admissions telegram
from London states that the Foreign Office and
the United States legation have no information
that new FISHERY treaty" has been effected be-
tween the Dominion and the United States.
Your correspondent never stated that treaty
had been ratified. This guarded denial goes for
naught here

THE death of Rev. II. M. JOY the newly
appointed pastor of College-avenue Church,
Greencastle. is tragic in its circumstances, and
will come to many hearts as a specially sore
bereavement The reverend gentleman had
but just moved into this State, had preached
but two sermons on Sunday last to his new
charge, when he met with the accident on
Monday which has resulted fatally so soon
Dr. Joy was one of the strong men of the Meth
odist Church, preacher of rare power, cult
ured and scholarly gentleman, man of the
highest qualifications and attainments for the
ministry, and in Michigan, from which State
he was transferred here, was facile princeps
among the leading men of his conference. His
unexpected death is heavy blow to the
