you secure better quality for the price
than is possible to get later.

SEVERAL American clergymen want to
Danish Santa Claus, but try as they will
they will never accomplish their object.
The Rev. DIR. John Hall in his useless
attempts to extinguish the Saint says:
ST do not think there is any need for d
long statement as to the wisdom OF tell
ing little children lies about Santa Claus
or any other saint. Lies never do good.
The danger is that when the little chill
dren find out the iies-as of course they
do in time-they will be tempted to class
with them the religious truths which
they are taught. True, the lies about
Santa Claus and the like may give them
temporary pleasure; but enjoyment
bought through lies is gold bought too

COMMERCIAL TREATIES.

An important case, involving the
treaty relations of the United States
with Hawaii and San Domingo, was
argued in the United States Supreme
Court at Washington, December 18th i.
The case stood on the docket as Hugh
Kelly, plaintiff in error, against Edward
L. Hedden, Collector. The question
presented was the alleged exemption
from. duty, under the existing tariff, of
the products of San Domingo, which are
identical in kind with the products of the
Sandwich Islands, and admitted free
of duty under special Act of Congress,
approved August 10, 1876. About
twenty years ago the United States en-
tered into treaty with the Republic, by
the terms of which each country agreed
not to charge higher import duties on
the products of the other than were i'm
posed upon like products from any other
country. Importers claim exemption
from duty for certain sugars and other
products imported by them from San
Domingo, upon the ground that the
articles were of such character that had
they been imported from Hawaii they
would have been admitted free of duty,
under the treaty between the United
States and Hawaii, and the Act of
August 10, 1876, enforcing that treaty.
The United States Government main
tains that the treaty with the Hawaiian
Islands was not a mere reciprocity
treaty, but was in substance a COM
mercial contract, by virtue of which Ha-
waii pays valuable consideration for
the admission OF certain merchandise to
the ports of the United States.
Counsel for the importers said if the
United States should be defeated in this
case San Domingo might become the
Honolulu of the Atlantic Coast, while if
the United States should succeed, Den
mark Brazil, Central America, Peru,
Persia and other foreign governments
would be at liberty to shut out American
manufacturers and products from their
ports without giving them any cause for
complaint for violation of existing
treaties pledging the United States an
equality there with all other nations.
This, they say, would upset nearly all
the United States commercial treaties
with foreign powers.
