The Treaty with Canada.

The announcement of the negotiation of
treaty to settle permanently the fishery dis
pute with Crnada will be a most agreeable
surprise to the country, following so closely,
as it does, upon the reports that the English
commissioners were about to return home
disappointed with the bootless result of their
errand. OF the precise details of the treaty
no official information has been made public.
Enough, however, has come to light in the
discussion of this question to enable the pub
lie to form reasonably accurate conception
of the upshot of the negotiations.
The one important point in controversy has
been the right of American fishing vessels to
enter Canadian ports in order to abtain sup
plies, or, in other words, to enjoy the same
privileges that are conceded to Canadian yes
sells in the waters of the Uuited States. After
the English commissioners had been brought
to admit the justice of this demand the chief
difficulty in the way of settlement disap-
peared. AS set-off to this important con-
cession, it is understood that the United
States commissioners accepted a modified
construction of the headLand doctrine under
which the right to enter the interior waters
of Canada and follow the indentation of the
coast up to the three-mile limit in pursuit of
their occupation has been claimed for Ameri-
can fishermen.

There is State law providing that man
cannot legally serve on a grand jury more
than once in two years. This does not ap-
ply to Cuyahoga county where there is special
legislation on the subject, but it affects all
other counties in the State, although almost
a dead letter through carelessness or ignor-
ance of prosecuting attorneys. Within the
past few weeks it has been forcibly brought
up by the granting of several new trials.
Fred Roth, of Wooster, was convicted of
numbering his wife and sentenced to 10
hanged. One of the grand jurors who in
dicted him had served on the previous jury,
and the circuit court granted new trial.
Mrs. Shoots, the alleged poisouer of her
children at GAINESVILLE; had her case thrown
out of court ON the same technical point, and
now attorneys for VIM. George, the Zanes-
Vile murderer in the pen, waiting to be hung,
will apply for new trial and probably get it,
as the same court granted one to Roth. Roth's
new trial will simply be repetition of the
first, and the county will have to foot heavy
bills. Mrs. Shoots case had not yet been
tried, but Georges first trial was by no means
a cheap one. There are doubtless many
counties in the State where this law has not
been minded, and if advantage is taken of
1t, heavy cost bills will have to be stood and
perhaps guilty persons may escape.

If such savagery could be realized,
it would be no worse than a
jumping toothache. The old comic
almanac used to have the picture of a
man, his mouth filled with water and
seated on hot stove waiting for it to
boil. This was called a cure for the
toothache. Grim joke. But it per-
haps suited the times, as there was
then nothing known to give instan-
taneous and permanent relief, and the
joke illustrated the desperation of the
sufferer as well. But not so now. At
least we are sure from the following
that some men have found sure COM
fort and cure, at once, as they testify:
Mr.. Geo. w. Harris, Hagerstown, Nd,
writes June 8, 1887: II suffered with
neuralgia, caused by defective tooth;
was advised to rub my gum with St..
Jacobs Oil; did SO and was relieved
thoroughly" Mr.. Geo. A. Grimes, 938
Lemon street, Baltimore, Md, May IL,
1887, states: II suffered severely on
several occasions with jumping tooth
ache, lasting once several days, when l
was cured Immediately by st Jacobs
OIL" Mr.. J. S. DePalos, 1926 Opera
Building, Chicago, ILL.,, May 5, 1887,
says he was not only cured of tooth
ache by st. Jacobs Oil, but found great
relief in its use for sore feet and chill
bIains. Mr.. Val. Steinbach, 1649 End
street, New York, writes February 2,
1887: "My wife suffered with tooth
ache and nothing would give her re-
lief. She tried st. Jacobs Oil and was
cured at once" Mr.. John Gutmon,
Sherman, KY, writes February, 1887:
"Have used st. Jacobs Oil about ten
years. 1t always cured toothache in
about ten minutes" Mrs. Magareth
Schroeder West Webster, N. Y, states
February 7, 1887: "St. Jacobs Oil is
excellent for toothache." Col. A. G..
Afford, Baltimore, Md, March 8, 1887,
says: IT was suffering terribly for sew.
eral days with an liberated tooth, and
could get no relief till tried st. Jacobs
Oil, which relieved me instantly" II
is relief; therefore, that not alone kills
pain, but takes away all soreness
Sleep comes, and that ends it.

Our Farmers.


The Tribtfnss statement that protection
has been q sort Of blessing in disguise TO our
farmers will excite public sympathy on ac-
count of its extreme and really pitiable
weakness. They realize" remarks our
neighbor, "that the protective system, by
building up other Industries, has enormously
enlarged the demand for agricultural pro-
ducts"
So the farmers are to be satisfied with
picking mp the crumbs from the monopolists'
table, are they? The heGovernment encourages
every industry except that of agriculture,
and then tells the farmer that he ought to be
proud of the general prosperity, because
when people have lots of money they always
want lots of fpotatoes and turnips. Perhaps
the farmer will be very grateful to come in
at the tail end of the procession and be al
lowed to swallow the dust of those who are
ahead of him.
Are the products of his farm protected?
Well, ask him, and note his reply. He must
sell his wares as best he can, but when he
comes to buy he is pounded and hunted by a
tariff on everything he needs.
Does he want a new barn? There is tariff
on lumber. Does he want to shingle the old
wood-shedp There is tariff on every nail,
and another tariff on his hammer. The iron
manufacturer is protected, and the farmer
pays tribute to him every time he buys hoe
or a plow. The lumber king takes few
dollars from him. The coal baron follows
suit. The Glass Trust taxes him for every
window pane, and even when his child is sick
and the doctor prescribes dose of castor
oil he finds duty of over 10Oper cent. on
the medicine.
The only consolation he has comes from
the mortgage he has been forced to put on
his land and home. Slender consolation,
that, but it is his share of this benefcent
protective system, and it is about all he gets,
too. That mortgage has way of increasing
itself, and the interest must be promptly
said or the farmer will run across foreclo-
sure and become tenant instead of an
owner.
That is the way the present system works,
and we venture TO say that it is very bad
showing. Our farmers can't afford to be
fooled much longer by the fallacies of pro-
lection, or they will have nothing left.

Celibacy for schoolmarms.

CeIibacy of the clergy is familiar
doctrine, both for banning and for
blessing. But the celibacy of the
"schoolmarm" is a heresy which as
yet only exists in the pious dream of
school managers and School Boards,
by whom marriage is regarded as an
even more ruthless enemy than death.
No sooner do they put girls through
their long and costly perils of training
than some shrewd suitor swoops down
upon the fair girl graduate and matri-
mony gains what education loses. II
ia not surprising that an attempt should
have been made in Lower Austria to
legislate In favor of enforcing celibacy
among the female school teachers. The
bill was rejected yesterday after Q
humorous debate. That there is good
deal to be said in its favor Is shown by
the preference shown for nuns as schoo
teachers In many countries.-RuU NAL

A Splendid Showing.

Texas presents the rare spectacle of State
burdened with surplus, and is probably
alone in this predicament. At the end of
treasury Of the State, and the assessments
of the cnrrent year will add $750, 1000 to this
amount. Consequent upon this is a move
ment to secure a large reduction of taxes.
Besides, they have just completed an elegant
new capital building at Austin, which is to
be dedicated in. May, the building costing
about $4,000, 900, which is all paid for. 1t is
the largest State capital building in the coun-
try, and is only exceeded in size by the
national capital at Washington, after which
design it is built.

Mr. Boothman ops,ructs BusIpess.

Mr.. Boothman obstructs Business.
Congressman BOothman is making q
record that must be heartily disap-
pointing to those who hoped 10 see him
do something to aid his election next
fail for a second term. So fac he has
done nothing but help to delay nation
al legislation in the interest OF an over
taxed people. In the Carlisle-Thobe
contest there was a practically unani-
nous report by the elections committee
In favor of Carlisle. The Republican
members ridiculed ThObe's case and
openly declared that the proceedings
in his behalf were extremely farcical.-
In fact, of 352 Congressman not one
could be found who disputed the re-
port of the committee, or who doubted
Its correctness. Notwithstanding this
when the question ofits adoption arose
the Republicans refused to vote in
order to break a quorum and waste
valuable time. Mr.. Boothman engaged
in these filibustering tactics, not for
any good purpose but merely to OBJ
struct tax reduction and revenue re-
form. 1t is plain from this that he is
not in sympathy with the wishes of his
constituents but has set out to misrep-
resent them on all important questions.
The voters of the Sixth district want a
Congressman who don't consider 1t his
patriotic duty to obstruct public busi-
ness by foolish filibustering, when there
is nothing at stake, and Mr.. Booth
man will find it out at the next cleo
tion.-K Van Vert Times.

Judge Thurman says: "Do you know that
they are piling up at the rate of 800, ,0OO, 900
year in the treasury of the United States,
money that is collected and for which the
government has no use? Why, if the thing
is not stopped, after while nearly all the
money will be in the treasury of the United
States under lock and key. and you will have
to go back to trading coon skins to get your
daily breed. 1t is simply monstgous. There
never was anything more corrupting than
this accumulation of surplus money in that
way. It leads to all manner of corrupt
schemes of expenditures in Congress, and If
1t goes on much longer there will be no such
thing as an honest tax bill or an honest ap-
preparation bill pass the House,"
