ing Ross ensilago cutter root cutter, Eclipse
corn planter, Clipper mower, eight varieties
of ploughs also samples of salt.
The lack of a suitable building upon the
grounds in which TO make displays OF fancy
and household articles, etc, which usually
form important features of similar fairs, and
to which the ladies of Brattleboro would
doubtless have gladly contributed-pTevent-
ed any attempt in these directions.
The ladies' of the w. @. Il. U. furnished
dinners ON the grounds to some 500 people,
the net receipts from which will be about
$225.

vailed throughout the day. Their determine
ton 10 prevent the sale of intoxlcants upon
the grounds was rigidly enforced by the as
sstance of a special police, and the instances
in which men we're seen the worse for liquor
were very few. No arrest for any cause was

what misleading, however, for the
reason that they represent only a
small fraction Of the many hundreds
Of delegates who attended the conven-
tions. Our Missouri contemporary
states that Blaine was the choice Of
more than half of the delegates who
expressed any preference but we are
left in entire ignorance a7 to the sen.
timcnts of much the larger number
who had nothing at all to say. The
figures are only straw of second ry
significance and furnish no guaranty
that the wind six months or year
hence may not blow in an entirely diff
ferent direction The election in

CANADIAN TWEspAssER :.

There is misapprehension abroad
10 the effect that the Treasury Depart
ment is devoting its attention to the
vexed questions arising from the
seizure of the Canadian sealing vessels
in Alaskan waters. AS matter of fact,
there is not, and is not likely to be,
any question for the Treasury Depart
Ment TO pass upon. The treaty cedlng
Alaska to the United States conveyed
jurisdiction of the waters in which
these schooners were seized. Under
this treaty laws were enacted author
izing seizures under such circumstances
as exist in this case. The action of the
Corwin was shown by the first reports
to be in accordance with instructions
and with existing law Further than
this the Treasury Department has no
concern
If the law under which the Corwin
acted is in violation of international
rights, II is question purely for the
diplomatic branch of the Government,
TO be considered only on formal pro.
test and through the usual diplomatic
channe's.
There is another important phase of
this subject, which appears 10 have
escaped attention. II the jurisdiction
of the United in the waters in
which these vessels were seized is
successfully contested, and the
United States rclinquishes its claim,
there may still be valid
excuse for the seizures. These scnoon.
ers were seen i. the Immediate vicinity
of the Seal Islands, where the iurisdic-
tion Of the United States is unques
TONED, and when subsequently seized
far off the coast, it is reported that
among their cargoes were found the
skins Of seals not shot but dubbed to
death. Seals can only be clubbed on
the Seal Islands, as this mode of kill.
ing is, of course, impracticable at
sea.
1t is question whether case could
not be made out against these vessels
of actual trespass within the three
mile limits, on the very shores of the
islands, and justifying beyond dispute
the action of tho revenue cutter.

FAIR PLAY FOR sEDGwICK,

Seriously speaking, the Sedgwck
scandal is serious thing; serious to
everybody concerned in it, including
the State Department which honored
Mr.. Sedgwick with its confidence; the
people at large who have an interest,
more or less direct, in the conduct of
their representatives abroad; the Amer
ican colony in Mexico which naturally
has a special interest In this particular
case, and Mr. Sedgwick himself who
constitutes its ceutral and conspicuous
figure,
The matter has been made the sub.
ject Of much severe and possibly sour.
rilous comment, upon the presumption
that there was only one side to the
question. Certain charges have been
made against Mr.. Sedgwick, the truth
of which the latter strenuously denies.
1t is but fair that he should have full
and impartial hearing; and the Secro-
tary of State takes the right position
on this point. There is this much to
be said in Mr., Sedgwick's favor, cir
cumstantially
In view of his previous standing and
reputation as gentleman, and Of the
important and delicate duties with
which hewas entrusted, and of which
he must have had an intelligent appre-
ciation, II is almost inconceiyable that
he could have so far forgotten the com
mon docencies of life, to say nothing
of the dignities Of his position, as to
signalize his entrance into the Mexican
Capital with a gross debauch and make
the international spectacle Of himself
which he is accused Of doing.
On the dher hand, II is alleged that
while Mr.. Sedgwick was bound by
oEery consideration of propriety to
stand upon his good behavior as a
representative OF the Government,
whatever his previous or usual habits
