VI have heard it intimated that
some of the laboring men Of this city
will oppose Mr.. kenney for state
senator. That intimation has led US
to examine his record in the las
House on the labor question and we
find it to be favorable to those who
learn their bread by the sweat Of their
brows." Several bills were in.troduc-
ed in the House in the interests Of
labor and the printed records show
that they received his support. On

in fayer of a bill ito create and con-

important provisions. BY the aid Of
Mr.. kenney this bill was passed by
the last Legislature and is now a law
upon our statute books. Also OH

Romance of the Cheese.

Springfield Dispatch TO Buffalo Express
Miss Lillian Ray. a bright, handsome and
vivacious Briton of the gentier sex. just from
the mother country, spent the fore part of the
week i'll this village. Hereon hangs a romance
Some two years ago young man, now
student of our high school-a fine young man,
by the way, and dilgent stndent-was stirring
curds i'll an Ashford cheese factory Knowing
that the products of the factory went directly
to Europe, and feeling a curiosity to know
under what skies his beautiful cheeses were cut
and who the consumers were, he corked up in q
dainty bottle message requesting the finder
to write him at Ashford, and put the bottle in
the curdS. which were pressed, cured, and in
due time was sent to Liverpool.
Weeks passed aud no return. The tender
grass in the pastures grew wiry and tough the
nipping frosts had Drowned the fields and the
milk yield was sadly waning when one dav in
October an answer came. How it gaddened
the heart of the long-waiting artist in curds and
sonnetsl The message came from York. En-
gland. II was written by young lady of that
place who found the bottle in the cheese and at
first took it for a Fenian bomb regular cor
respondence followed between the parties
Later on the lady CROSSED the seas" to make
an American tour. and on Saturday last in the
breezy city of Buffalo she met, according to ap-
pointment, for the first time in her life the hero
of the cheese episode The lady came to Spring
field with her friend, and is the English guest
spoken of above The question which agitates
the town now is what will come of itY

The Extradition Treaty.

No doubt those who are pursuing n course
that will make it necessary for them to EN-
igrate to Canada in the near future are
glad that the extradition treaty with Great
Britain has been laid ON the shelf until next
December, with the probability that it will
never be ratified. Doubtless Senator Rid
dleberger will claim that he was chiefly in
strumental in defeating 1t, but there is no
reason for thinking that it would have been
ratified if he had not made himself notori-
Gus in connection with it.
The treaty was negotiated in London by
Minister Phelps year ago last June The
chief purpose of it was to reach the crimi-
mails who escape from this country to Cana
da, and who cannot be extradited under
existing treaties There are a good many
fugitives from justice in the Dominion
who are wanted in this country, but who
take good care not to come within the juris-
diction of American courts
There is no doubt that if the treaty had
been ratified 1t would have had restraining
influence upon persons holding positions of
trust who are unfaithful, and who expect to
escape punishment if their wrong-doing is
discovered. Inc NUMBER OF III glUlNe bank
officials from this country, who are now
living in Canada upon their ill-gotten gains,
is quite large, and it is to be regretted
that it is steadily growing larger
In our dispatches yesterday the statement
was made that the administration was
anxious that the treaty should not be rati-
fed in its present shape. Leading Demo
Gratis opposed its ratification, not because of
objections to it as it was originally framed,
but because of an amendment which Sena-
tor Sherman succeeded in having tackled on
to it which provides for giving up political
offenders. This country is hardly ready to
depart from its long settled policy with re-
gard to offenders of that class. Senator
Sherman would like to have made the ad-
minstration responsible for a treaty which
provided for giving up political offenders
He would not have liked any better political
capital for the approaching Presidential
campaign than such a treaty would have
been. q

They were so eager and so positive that the

repute in the neighborhood. She requested five
minutes in which to deliberate At the end of
that time she spokei Let the servants catch
me large fish in the river and let it be brought
