North American fisheries. lie tried
hard to have il considered on the 9Th

that looked like war. lie read the
resolutions of q fishing association

ed vessels to the fishing grounds to
protect our fishing vessels, inasmuch
as the Canadian government had
forbidden American fishing vessels
to enter Canadian ports for any pur.
pose except the merest purposes OF
shelter. This is contrary to the
terms of the commercial treaty and
Mr.. Frye would have the navy in
terfcre to adjust matters. No &C
ton was taken, however, by the sen
ate, and the friendly relations exist
ing between the two governments

PRINTERS STIkE IN JACKSON
WILLIE.


The printers continue to stand out
for their advance rates in Jackson
vile, and As the proprietors of the
dailies refuse to cOneede their de-
mands, the strike goes on. The
Morning News came to hand vester-
day promptly on time, but pretty
much shoine of its reading matter.
An editorial on the subject of the
strike shows very clearly tina, the
demands of the printers are unreas-
enable. No one appreciates more
fully the principle that labor should
meet with its full reward and labor
ers be paid fair compensation for
their work than we do; but the
printers Of Jacksonville seem to
have gone far beyond this principle,
and demand to be paid for work
that they do not perform. Some of
the regulations of their Union are
right down frauds. For instance,
according to the Morning News, it
Is required that the change of a sin.

4 POINT At LAW.


N Novel Test Case 10 BE brought
Against the State of Georgia.
CHICAGO, April 3.-fIon. Robert 4.
Lincoln, of the law firm Of Isham Il
Lincoln, said this morning that his firm
held bonds Of the face value of 800, 200,
issued by the state or Georgia in 1869 and
1870, and since rrpudiated, which they
have been directed to present to the
state of Illinois for the benefit of the
Soldiers Home. The bonds are among
others bought up by foreigners. and for II
long time have been in the hands of New
York bankers. Mr.. Lincoln safes that
suit would he brought in the United
States supreme court within a short
time by the state of Illinois against the
state of Georgia to recover the amount OF
these repudiated bonds
In 1882 test suits were brought bv the
states of New Hampshire and New York
against Louisiana by the attorney gener.
al, in the name of the states. to recover
the amount Of repupiatcd bonds by their
citizens, but the decision of the supreme
court delivered by Chief Justice Waite
was that owners of state bonds could

the present mode Of action has been de-
cided on. While this suit promises &c

lation of the states under the constitu
ton. Mr.. Lincoln said it was impossible
to say what its issue might be, although
he was Of the opinion that the legal
points to be considered would be entirely

THE CITY ELECTION.

The real questions at issue in the
election held in this city on Tues
day last, were reforms in the admin
istration Of our municipal affairs,
and the adoption Of some plan
whereby tho city could secure a
practical system Of drainage and
kindred improvements.
Well, If pledges amount to any.
thing, these issues have prevailed,
although not in the persons Of the
candidates named by the citizens
convention at Fry's Opera House.
The election of Joseph T.. Baldwin,
as Mayor, is not necessarily to be
followed by bad municipal admin.
istre,ion or open warfare on public
improvements. Mr.. Baldwin pledg.
ed himself, at the time Of his nom.
nation, to do all that he may have
it in his power to do, to enforce the
laws Of the city to the end that
good government may be secured,
and certain improvements promoted,
free from corruption or other vicious
influences. We believe he will keep
his pledges. lie also promised to
aid, as far as in his power, all legiti-
mate measures that had for their
purpose the welfare Of Palatka.
Certainly, this is all we can reason
ably ask of a man. Good govern.
mcnt is the first consideration that
government exerted for the good of
all concerned, is the next object to
be obtained.
We believe, moreover, that Mr..
Baldwin will do more than his
pledges imply. While he will en-
deavor to carry out his pledges, he
will not forget his self-respcct, OF
degrade the honorable office tc
which he has been called by the
suffragcs of his fellow citizens, &c
the level of a "bucket shop where
the city's interests are bought and
sold for a consideration. lie is d
young man of respectable family
connections, good habits, honorabl,
purposes, no doubt, well educated
and an ambition to achieve success
) lie is pecuniarily interested
in the city, as also is his frthet
and he comes from section
; where young men are taught to re
) spect themselves, live sober ant
temperate lives, and honor and ODE,
: the laws of their country. Our citi
; zens have nothing to fear from
young man like that. We shall
feel it our duty to extend to hin
: our cordial support in every legit
innate undertaking.
: And we bespeak for him tn
, friendly support of all our best citi
l zens. Mr.. b. should find, upon hi
. induction into Office, a spirit Of sym
q pathy on the part of all, and pu,
pose to sustain him in the legit
y mate duties of his new and tryin
+ position. lie should be surrounde

IS willing to profit by their advice an

CELLARS,

1t is the boast of almost every good
housewife that her cellar can be made
so perfectly warm and tight that she can
"put down in it in the autumn all the
store of potatoes and other vegetables
that will be required by her family until
the following spring People who have
furnaces in their cellars go to the great
pains to wall off portions large enough to
hold such vegetables, and it is, in New
England especially, considered as to a
high degree thriftless and improvident to
have cellar which, in the local vernacu-
lar, "won't keep"
Now, however, up start the "eXperts, ="
as they have a most eXasperating habit
of doing, and inform us that, if we would
keep away malaria and other ZymOtic
diseases, we must allow current of
fresh air to flow through our cellars at
least once day throughout the year /;
that to seal up the cellars, even in mid
winter, is to endanger the health of ev-
cry member of the household.

time? Pay double the price in February
