had been in the water for some time. Cor

A DENIAL.
Captain Joyce of the steamer Novelty of
Portland says the reports sent from Halifax
on Friday that the steamer had taken 1000
barrels of mackerel, and that he had fished
inside the three-mile limit, were not true. He
had only 600 barrels of mackerel, all of which
were taken outside of the limit Furthermore
he saw no other American vessels fishing in
side the prescribed line.
THAT DRAFT PROTESTED.
Mr.. Burleigh, of E. G. Willard & Co., said
yesterday that the draft which the captain
of the j. r. Kennedy had to give for light
house dues when in Canadian port, was
presented here for the payment yesterday,
but the firm declined to pay it as they didn't
believe the Canadian authorities had any
right to demand it.
THE BoUTELLE BILL.
To the Editor Of the Press:
AS the Canadians continue to ada insult W
injury and heap still greater indignitles on
American fishermen, it is no wonder that the
patience of the people engaged in the fish
cries is well nigh exhausted. There are
times and occasions when patience ceases to
be virtue, and we are constrained to pc
lieve that that time has nearly arrived. IL
is the expressed opinion of Mr.. Bayard that
the fisheries question can only be settled by
treaty. He also asserts that many OF the
fishermen who sail in American fishing YES
sells are Canadians, and all the supplies used
aboard the vessels are purchased in Canada,
simply, as he says, because both men ana
material can be obtained cheaper than IN the
United States Now we know not from
what source Mr.. Bayard derived his infor-
nation, but we are prepared to say that ne g
has been grossly misinformed. Having mad

method of supplying fishing vessels we

The Country Boy.
Iowa Homestead.

The country lad who is trained to simple
ways and homely virtues, and who learns
what dollar is worth by actually earning it
under the laws of imperative necessity, has
tremendous advantage over the town boy
The country schools are far inferior to the
town or city schools, put this is counterbal-
anced by the fact that the country boy is
trained to work from the time he can pick
up corn cobs to run the kitchen stove, until
he goes out to his own home. The country
boy has a mile or so to walk to and from
school which gives him vigorous appetite and
health. The country boy is face to face
with practical realities. He sees how slow
ly money is made on the farm he is taught
from youth up the need of economy he has
the nature of saving first explained to him
every day in the week he is not exposed to
the temptation of the saloon. or the ball
room; he is not tempted so much to be a
lady's man before he has occasion to use a
razor on his downy cheeks. He may be a
trite rude, he may not feel easy in company
but in the long contested race of life it is the
chap that trudges to school bare-footed in
summer and In St0gaS in winter, whose mother
cuts his hair with the sheep shears, that
leads the chap that goes to the city school,
with the starched shirt front and fancy Slip
perS and whose head is shaved with the lawn
mower in the barber shops. Such has been
our observation, and we think we know
what we are talking about. Speaking from
experience, we never read any books with
such avidity as those we devOured while the
horses were resting at the end of the pillow
land. The boys we envied 40 years ago, be-
cause they wore cashmere and laughed at
our jeans, have dropped so far back in the
race shat we have almost forgotten them
The chaps who had plenty of money at col
lege and the city-bred fellows have not been
as a rule, heard from much since: while the
country boys who wore plain clothes and
kept close to their books in the old college
are leading the thought in Iowa and other
States to-day

TURNING the SCREWS

The uncertainty as to the course of the
Tories in ireland produced by the conflicting
utterances of their leaders is now removed
by the acts of the government in ordering
the prosecution of Dillon and forbidding the
proposed meeting of the National League at
Sligo These acts show clearly that the gov
eminent has settled down to the old policy
of coercion, and is going to try again to do
by force what it has failed to accomplish by
force IA the past. If the experience of the
last fifty years in governing Ireland or in
trying to has taught anything, it is that that
unhappy island can never be pacihed and
made loyal part of the British empire in
this way. But the Tories, who are the Eng
ish Bourbons, learn nothing and forget
nothing. They are great admirers of prece-
dents, and the precedents of their party are
all in favor of coercion. 1t did look at one
time as if some of their leaders were ready
to extend to Ireland some measure Of justice,
and that policy of Cancellation was TO be
tried. But if any such intention existed
nothing came of it but empty words. The
governments acts are Enthusiastically in the
other direction
How the revival of the force policy will be
treated by the Irish people remains to be
seen. Undoubtedly its advocates would be
pleased to see forcible resistance, which
would give an excuse for another turn of the
screws; and there is great danger that they
will be gratifed, for potent as Parnell's in
fuence IS, it is doubtful if it viii be sufTi-
cient to prevent an outraged popular feeling
from expressing itself in acts. But should
the Irish people have sufficient self-restrant
to be able to submit without resistance,
there can be little doubt that coercion will
be short-lived. The last election showed
that very nearly half the English people
were in favor of allowing Ireland pretty
| liberal measure Of freedom. The spectacle
of the Irish people remaining peaceful and
quiet in the face of such provocation to re-
bellion as the Tory government has offered
them, would greatly strengthen that senti-
ment. 1t is a time when the Irish people
can accomplish much more for themselves by
quiet submission than by resistance and re-
bellion.

The meeting of the German Reichstag will
bring scant comfort to the tax-burdened
peasants of the great military empire. The
emperor's speech is described as pacific in
tone, and it undoubtedly has resulted in
strengthening the securities of Russia and
Austria ON the Bourse. But the pacific
tone" sounds strange to American ears.
The German army must be increased" is
the burden Of the speech, and the Reichstag
must provide the means. Though the Ger
man army is now the most effective on the
face Of the earth, it must be made stronger
still: there must be half a million men all
equipped, drilled and ready to move at min
ute's notice. Yet the explanation which the
Emperor William gives appears satisfactory
There are yet nations in Europe which arc
no better than free-booters, ready to sacrifice
peace at any time for disputed town or OBJ
seure boundary line. The only way Germa-
ny can have peace is to compel it. And as
Russia and France have made large additions
to their forces, Germany must do the same.
1t is desperate rivalry, full Of care for
statesmen, full of misery for the people. The
German peasant, on the threshold OF man
hood, gives to that superb army the time,
which, In free country, is devoted to laying
the foundations of career; and through his
life 1t divides with his family their scanty
substance. In Russia and France the army
is the same burden. But there is a growing
sentiment among the men who work, who
bear the burdens, that there must be an end
Of these exactions. The French laborer is
growing to understand his German brother
and both are beginning to see the folly of
fighting each other because some rulers disa-
gree. And In this growing sentiment lies
surer hope of final peace in Europe, than in
the achievements of any soldier or statesman

views in regard to tariff revision. Hon. Pat

the operation of the sprevious question If
possible" Mr.. Cox of North Carolina, says
the party should fulfll its pledges by insist
ing on a reduction of the tariff. Mr.. Bragg
OF Wisconsin, is in favor of keeping the
question constantly to the from until some
thing is done. Congressman cvering says
he has little hope of accomplishing anything
in the way Of tariff reduction a the coming
session, and he doubts If the next Congress
will do much in that direction. He thinks
there is much more likelihood of reduction
Of internal revenue taxes than of the tariff.

Mills of Texas says the Democrats will push

theory that diphtheria is caused by kerosene,
and the State Board of Health has been suf-

prevailed no cases appeared in houses lighted

that the disease is exceptionally fatal in the
