THE FIsBIBG DISPUTE WILL
SETTLE

The fishery question has assumed a
new aspect, owing to the seizure in
Alaska of Canadian fishing beats by
the United States. This action causes
Canadisn interests 10 be involved as
we'll as these OF the United Sta es
One pIomir ent matter in dispute is IS
to the construction to be given to the
provision in the tresty between Eng
land and the United States that for
bids foreigners fishing within three
miles Of the coast. The Euglish con-
tend, or rather the Canadian Govern.
ment, that the distance must be mt as
ured from headland to headlsnd. This
cuts off, fer instance, the Bay de
Chaleurs, which is twenty miles wide
at the entrance. The United States
contend that the three miles
lie simply that distance fom the
ehore at any place. The Canadian
construction would exc ude Canadians,
by their own ule, from fishing within
Bebring Sea. Now both contestants
have common Interests at stake, We
may rely upon a mutusl settlement
being made that shall guard the inter
ests OF both parties. The Canadians
are di'gusted that their own pol cy
should be turned against them, hut it
is inst rebuke for their own arbi-
trary proceedings.

COL. II. M. NELLY.

In every part Of the State the people
are forcing the nomination OF the best
men ss candidates for the Slate Legs-
lature. In nearly every county the
Strongest and best men have been Sc
leeted for, both branches, aud the indi-
catit ms are that the next session OF the
s a'e Legislature will be a body OF
unusual ability, Shelby county will
keep abreast Of other counties. The
Democracy can make no mistake in
nominating two Of the avowed as
piran's for the Senate. Good men
have bsen suggested for the House OF
Representatives, and among the num-
Der the name Of Col. II. M. Nicely
has been prominently mentioned. He
is man OF great public spirit and pop
ularity, and would make a useful nd
Influential member. He has personal
and moral courage, and he will stand
like a crag in advocating the right and
opposing the wrong. Col. Nicely is a
sound Democrat, and extensively and
favorably known. He would give
strength to the ticket. He has great
abilities. His judgment and instincts
in business are unerring and he would
carry into the legislature these high
qualifications and make a diliRent and
intelligent member. With him public
cfh,e would be public trust, aad

The evils, Irregularities aud injus.

is continually provoking complaint
and denuncation. The Democrats OF
Minnesota last week formally and de-
cisively expressed themselves upon
the subject as follows: "There should
be thorough and complies tariff re-
form. The depressed condition Of our
agricultural and manufacturing indus
tries imperatively demands that they
should no longer pay tributs to mo-
nopolists OF the East. The tools OF the
laborer and mechanic, the raw mate

ments OF the farmer should not be ex.
excluded from our markets or en-
HANGED in price by taxes imposed for
the profit OF protected mlllionaires.
We are in favor OF q revision OF the
present unequal and unjust tariff and
it's adjustment to revenue basis"
"There should be a thorough and
comp Ito tariff REFORM" and that re-
form the sound Democracy is ineist

RlOTING Al BELFAST.
TWO POLICEMEN AND A NUMBER
OF CITIZENS
Seriously Injured, but as Far as
Known No Lives LOst-Marriage
Of Gen. Butterfleld.

BELFAST, September 2l.-Desul DRY
rlot, accompanied by firing, continued
throughout the city during all of last
night. Two policemen were severely
wounded and lumber OF citizens
were injured. How many Of the lat
ter were hurt is not officially known,
because their iriends carried many OF
them away before the authorities
could secure them tor hospital treat
ment. Twenty arrests were made dur
ing the night.
The Catholics evince a more bitter
spirit against the police and soldiers.
The appearance OF single constable
in one OF the troubled districts LIST
night was greeted with volley Of
stones. The a,pect OF effairs tbs
morning is threatening and more fight
ing is expected.
l p MIRO ing was resumed at
dinner time at the junction # Nor h
cumberland street aud the Falls
road by the Catholic mill hands ston-
ing the police on duty to keep the
O'ange Queens Island ship yardmen
from coming in c,ntact with mill
hands. The stcnipg was go heavy
and skillful that the poIica had to
retreat as far as Shspks Hill. Here
they were reinforced, aud they dove
tho mob b -ck, capturing number II
the way.
While this battle va, going on an
other mob in different locality at
tackled with stones the Black Watch
regiment of Welshmen. although the
soldiers were fully AIMED aud in
fighting array. The troops, with fixed
bay cnaiged in double quick
time on the mob and drove them from
the scene, wounding great number
of the rioters and arresting two.
Still ant thtr mob got into fight in
tram car stable, and, surging out
into the street, threw passing rar
from tho tra;k and overturned it The
car WAS at the time fl led with
passengers. The mob that over
turned this car evidently had
not intended to do it. They were
fighting purely religious fight, but
the locality was missed with rowdief,
drawn thither by the riot, and when
these lo,fers saw the car upside down,
aud fl led with people, they fusilladed
it with stones. The terror stricken
passengers crowded clcss under the
seats and under ore another, aud
SHE ded themselves as best they could
with the floor mats and seat cushions.
Several were hurt. Their situa ion
was dreadful until the military rescued
and etc)rtt d them to place of aatety.
The funeral cortege OF q man named
Boyle, while returning from the GENE
terry today, was attacked by mob,
who a.sailed the mourDers with
stones. The military char ed on the
mob and arrested a score OF rio ers. In
he melee the Colonel in command OF
the troops was badly hurt. At md
night the city was quiet.

PLEURO PNEUMONIA.

WAsHINeToN, September 2l.-OJm-
missioner Coleman, OF the Depart.
ment OF Agriculture, hiss been mott
fed that plsuro pneumonia has again
broken out in Illinois, ard he has

however, he's rot yet accepted the
conditions propose by the Cumms-
sioner 10 the Gov. rnors Of the States
for the suppression of the disease, and
this will be necessary before govern
mental action can be taken toward

ton, mind you. By bis promises ne
induced these boys to shoulder the
big debt. Otherwise they never could
have thought Of such a thing. Well,
by Endorsement and one way or an
other the debt was reduced to about
$250,000, and that is where it is now.
OF course the boys thought that when
the Governor died he would, by his
will, lift them out Of the hole in
which, by his promises, he had pat
them. Now lcok at the result. His will
provides for the discharge OF s33,OOOin
notes held by the I bird National Bank
Of New York, $4,000 in notes dis
counted by the Governor for the Kin
derhook Bank and the SIC, 900 note held
by Mrs Pierson, money borrowed by
the Governors own father. There is
the proviso, that debt of $500 600,
which the Governor claimed Henry
A. and Moses Y. owed him, should
be cancelled whenever the boys
should 10 request in writing OF the
trUs. eeE, Msssrs Bigelow, Green end
sm tn. Now this debt was always
disputed by Henry A., the boys
father. He avowed that it was not
correct, and that he would never pay
it. II was accumulated interest on
Transactions between the Governor
and his two brothers fnd their father
in years hack. The boys knew moth
ing of it," The will will no doubt be
contested, and in view Of the larg4
amount involved the contest will be
bitter and involve many scandals.
Itssems that the wills OF dead men
are a mere rope Of sand. Judging from
the frequency with which they are
broken, a man has no right 10 dispose
Of his properly by wiz. Fer several
years past contests Of wills have be-
come so general thst it is almost ex-
pected, when iich man dies
making a will at all cut Of the
ordinary, that the unremembert d
relatives and friends will forthwith al.
tempt to break 1t down. These con-
tests have generally been accompanied
by the parsdirg before the public Of
family secrets, the disclosing Of private
troubles and the pre- clamation to the
world Of things which always oughtto
have been kept 81 crst. Every act and
every word OF the deceased tes'ator lie
dragged into court and construed in
such way as is expected to benefi.
the parties in the case. No more dis
gushing exhibitions have been made
before the courts than those drawn
out by such contests, and though
the number OF wills actually broken
has been comparatively small, yet
1t is fact that in many instances
compromises have been made
where there was evidently no legal
necessity, simply to Syoid the public
ity and scandal which mutt have en-.
sued had the matters taken The due
course OF law. For uuately, there lie
now a revulsion against such proceed
ings; but in wi sense than 1t was
frat intended, the expression that a
man is his own best executor has a
world OF mtaaing. Contrasting wills,
especially where the estate is large, is
favorits busintss with lawyers; but
to destroy them is an invasion OF pub
lie policy and private rights.
