In the Dominion House of Commons last
week, in reply to a question in regard to the
seizures in Behrlng Sea by the revenue cut
tiers of the United States, Sir Charles Tup-
per said that at the Fishery Commission the
British representatives were prepared to
take the matter up, but were met with a
statement by the United States Government
that when the claims of Canada had been
distinctly formulated by the government of
Great Britain it would be time enough to adj
NIT the claim pressed by Her Majesty's gov
eminent. 1t was only recently that full and
complete information regarding these seiz-
ures had been placed in the hands of the
imperial authorities, and negotiations were
now in progress. Sir Charles added that the
imperial government were collecting infor
nation, and hopes were entertained that full
reparation would be made for the seizures.
He said that the American government had
declined to consider the matter at the fish
cries conference, on the ground that the
question was primary and fundamental
and was already subject of diplo-
matte correspondence. Probably the out
growth of this correspondence will be an
other commission,

the hardlhood to advocate filing the vacan-

described as an ''unassuming gentleman" by

Gov. Ames of Massachusetts is to have a
competitor in the Republican gubernatorial
convention in the person of Gen. Draper of
Hopedale, who publicly announces that he
will consent to be candidate, If his friends
see fit to make him one. The Worcester
Spy thinks, however, that Gov. Ames will
be nominated with little opposition. The
practice in Massachusetts has been to give a
governor three terms, and departure
from it in Gov. Ames's case would be con-
strued as a rebuke, and for that there is no
reason inasmuch as it is generally admitted
that he has made a better governor,all things
considered. than the average.

Ex-Gov. Leon Albeit Of New Jersey, has
given to big meeting of New Jersey liquor
dealers an elaborate opinion that the local
option law lately passed IS unconstitutional.
The main point he raises is the same point
that Gov. Green raised in his futile veto of
the bill The Republicans of the Legisla-
ture were convinced that the point was not
well taken and passed the bill over the veto.
The courts will now be called upon for aid

Sneezing Catarrh.

The distressing sneeze, sneeze, sneeze, the ac-
rid watery discharges from the eyes and nose, the
painful Inflammation extending to the throat, the
swelling of the mucous lining, causing choking
sensations, cough, ringing noises in the head and
splitting headaches,-how familiar these symp-
toms ale to thousands who suffer periodically
from head colds or influenza, and who live IN ig-
norance of the fact that single application of
SANFYaD's RADICAL CURE FOR CATARRH will
afford Instantaneous relief.
But this treatment in cases of simple Catarrh
gives but faint idea of what this remedy will do
in the chronic forms, where the breathing is OBJ
structed by choking, putrid mucous accumula-
tons, the hearing affected, smell and taste gone,
throat liberated and hacking cough gradually
fastening itself upon the debitated system. Then
II is that the marvellous curative power of SAN
FoRD's RADICAL CURE manifests itself in instan-
taneous and grateful relief. Cure begins from the
first application. 1t is rapid radical, permanent,
economical, safe.
SANFoRD's RADICAL CURE consists of one bot
tie of the RADICAL CURE, one box CATARRHAL
SOLVENT and an IMPROVED INHALER; price, 81.

A PLEA FOR THE WOMEN DELEGATES.
[Albany Journal
Women, from the days Of Miriam, have
been devoted to the promotion of the inter-
ests of the church of God. They are to-day
the chief successful workers in all local
churches. Their toll, patience and genius
prevent many feeble church from perish
ing. But for women our Sunday schools
would gradually die out Susanna Wesley
and Barbara Heck watched and directed the
tiny. currents of English and American
Methodism, each of which IS now an ever
widening Amazon of varied good. No more
splendid thought ever crossed the mind of
great possibilities opening before orderly
establish the Roman Catholic order of isis
eminently self-sacriicing work, has won the
encomiums of all candid admirers of wom-
anly heroism. Paul beautifully saws
"There is neither Jew MOI Greek, bond nor
free, male nor female, for we are all one in
Christ Jesus" Let not Methodism, among
the most democratic and progressive of all
denominations. put any unnecessary bar
