upon Sherman, and 1t is scarcely to be won-
dered at if he has finally decided to offer it
to Blaine. The case was different with Sem
ator Allison He WIS never a candidate for
place in the cabinet In my sense, though
his fitness for the treasury department was
universally recognized. He was still more
reluctant to leave the senate than Sherman.
If he has consented to do 10, as everybody
believes he has, he has made a considerable
sacrifice Of comfort. inclination. and even of
ambition. Allison is still u presidential pos

Senator Sherman on the Samoa Situation,
The amendments to the diplomatic appro.
priation hill in relation to Samou having
l'een reached TN Tuesday, Jan. 20 the senat to
went into executive session. When the doors
were reopencd Mr. Sherman suid that in 1873
treaty was ma,ie which gave to the United
states the privilege ofcntering and using the
harbor of Pago-Pago aud establishing there
Golling and naval supply station, and pro-
vided that in case of difference with other
nations the government of the United
States would employ it's good Of
fees in adjusting such differences.
This was the basis OF the right OF
the United States to occupy and hold and to
establish .; a in the hnrIor OF Pago-Pngo stu.
what similar treaties had been made with
Germany and with Great Britain, by which
those governments obtained like privileges in
other portions Of the islands. 4 furthrr ar.
rongeinent was made shortly afterwards and
entered into between Great Britain und the
government of Samoa (but the German and
American governments we're also included in
it), by which the town and district of Apia
we're constituted into Il municipality, and were
declared TO be neutral territory. where cuc!,
OF the three nations might establish store
houses. their workshops and all other
buildings necessary for carrying OH
their traffic in those islands, This terri.
tory of Apia was only known ms thecnpitalo of
THE SAMOAN ISLANDS,
aud was set aside for commercial purposes
the government of Samoa being practically
excluded from it. The municipal board con
sisted of the German, English and American
consuls. BY the treaty OF April 6. 1886, b.
tween Germany and Great britain, n sort of
dclimitation was established for the jnris.lic-
tion of each government in the Polyncsian
group, with disclaimer that this partition
should apply to the Samoan islands. That
was the legal status today; for no other
arrangement or agreement had ever been
made in a formal way that affected the
rights of the several PARTIES. A movement
had been made to annex the Sal
mean islands to New Zcaland-Ma'ic-
toa sending an humble appeal to Queen
Victoria, asking for annexation. The Ter
man government, however, hnd reconstructed
in the most vigorous manner ngunst it, in
sisting that it would b, II violation of the
treaty. After enumerating subsequent well
known events, Mr. Sherman raid that the
first thing to he done was for the United

Apropos of the sham jewelry bust
ness, says a writer in a London jour
nal, / have inquired who are the larg-
est patrons of L. Americans are good
customers here" said the salesman.
Those big heavy bracelets you see
there are bought chiefly by publicans'
wives. We sell plenty OF wedding
rings at Is Sd. each" But marriages
don't occur often; surely people a
afford a few shillings ice in lifetime
TO buy a real gold ringf' "Ah, you
don't understand. These wedding
rings are bought by poor people and
slipped on when the real thing is at
the p~awnbrokers. 1t is not before the
marriage, but after, when the rainy
day comes, that these rings are bought
We sell crosses of them" Who are
YOUR best customers3n "Well. there
are rich women who have their wi
jewel sets initiated, Americans, the
profession and Washers, the people
who have come down in the world.
When these latter go away for their
holidays to see their friends, they don't
like TO show their poverty. For a few
shillings they can get such a stock of
jewelry that in their own towns and
villages they are kings and queens.
Then we sell n good deal TO Washers
on bank holidays and during the holi-
day season. Here are some pins, now,
that cost a shilling each. They can
have their choice OF pearls, corals and
diamonds. A pin like that would gain
any young man the respectful admi-
ration Of the bank holiday crowds at
Margate or Brighton. The Washers
favorite jewel, however, is the one
and three penny ring, set with rubies
and diamonds"

New Distress Signal.

A new shell, to take the place of all
distress signals now used in marine
signaling, such as rockets and firing
of minute guns, which involve the loss
of much valuable time, has lately APP
peared. 1t is intended that the shells
shall be distributed about a ship, but
particularly kept on the bridge within
easy reach of the captain. When he
desires to give a signal of distress, in
stead Of losing time in loading and fir
ing a cannon, or touching off a rocket,
Ie seizes a shell, pulls the cap off the
detonator, scratches the illuminate
with the rough end of the cap, and
throws the shell overheard. In TWEEN
ty-fve seconds there is an explosion,
and a loud booming report is heard,
while n column of water, flame and
smoke shoots up at least 100 feet in the
air. An extra appliance Of a rocket is
attached to the shell used at night,
and this is thrown TO a great height
by the explosion, and itself explodes
in the air. The tin cylinders Of the
shell then float about on the water,
and as they have the name Of the ship
stamped on them, they serve in time
Of disaster to tell of the ship they came

WE shall now certainly have the exact
truth about the oath of the Clan-na-Gael,
and the true relation of that organization
to the Government. In his opening state
ment to the jury in the Cronin case, the
Prosecuting Attorney declared that he
would prove that the oath of the Clan re-
quires its membership to respect the or
ders of that organization as superior to the
laws of the land. Counsel for the prison
ers objected to the statement as inadmissi-
BILE in advance of proof. To this the
States Attorney replied that he would
make the necessary proof, and this he
stated though the Court warned him that
he made such declaration 1t his peril.
That is to say, the prosecution after stat
ing what it will prove must not fail to do
so, for the failure will justify the defense
in claiming from the jury consideration
for the unsustained charge. The Prose
cutting Attorney accepted the responsible
ity in the Cronin case, and must therefore
have entire, confidence in his ability to
prove that the Clan-na-Gael is an organ
ization that sets its DEGREES above the laws
of the land. It is, hence, gigantic or
ganized conspiracy that it viii be well to
look after more closely for the future.

IF it is not true that the new naval
squadron is to be sent on its first cruise to
South American waters, then it is to be
hoped that it will be made true by revo-
cation of the order to sail for European
ports-provided always that there is no
danger to be apprehended from exposure
of the crews to yellow fever. 1t is the
right thing to do at this time when the
American Congress is in session, to pay
the compliment to the South American
States of having the new naval vessels
make their first call one of favor to the
sister Republics.

Americas TO the exclusion of Spain,
which, by blood, tongue, language and
is so closely linked to the South
American nations. He entertains the
hope that the nations Of Europe will en-
gage in such combination of interest and
effort as will offset the schemes OF the
United States, and prevent the exclusion
of the former from the commerce OF the
South American continent
The Count borrows his fears frem his
nerves. The United States has no schemes
of conquest il view. As the essayist
shows, it has bat an Insignificant share OF
the trade of South American States. The
most of the commerce of that continent is
with Germany, England and France. But
while we are endeavoring to broaden the
area of our trade, and certainly will avail
of all legitimate means to do so, we do net
forget that trade is not sentimental, and
that whatever the political complexion
here or in South American States, they
will buy where they can purchase at the
lowest figure and to the best advantage,
and will sell where they can get the most
and the quickest return. If we make any
commercial conquest in South America or
Mexico, it viii be simply for the reason
that we are able to outbid our business
rivals.
All such ideas, however, are secondary
to and insignificant beside the great and
foremost purpose of the Pan-American Con-
gress, which is the establishment of such
conditions as will insure not only the po-
litical independence of each nation, but
will attain that end through the means
that do not employ arms, and that do not
necessitate the exhaustion of the indus
tries OF the nations by the maintenance of
armies of non-producers. If in the estab-
lishment of such relations Of confidence
and tranquility between the States of the
three Americas as will make war all but
impossible and a state of armed peace dis
honorable, there is a menace to Europe,
then the intention to make it is confessed.
But when the Spanish publicist attempts
to awaken the fears of monarchies by
shaking the bones of skeleton of politi-
cal conquest that is the creature of his
own fancy he excites on this side of the
water only amusement. At the same time
he exposes himself as ignorant of the
spirit of the people of the United States
and ill-informed concerning the policy Of
this nation towards its neighbors.

exists it is not the repose of reasonable,
kindly Powers, but as the crouching atti-
tude of relentless rivals dreading the
enemy whom they hate, and afraid of the
destructive weapons which support mod
ern warfare, making victory bat little
better than defeat. Sheer force holds a
larger place than it has held in modern
times since the fall Of Napoleon, and the
will to take without better reason than
the power to hold, is naked and undis-
guised. The European States are simply
racing in the absurd and ruinous rivalry
fer the mightiest battalions and the heay-
TEST budgets, with the double result of an
expensive military expenditure and ire
mendous national debts"
But we are constantly greeted with the
declaration that Europe is now enjoying
the blessings of the era of peace. 1t is
the peace that saps the vitality of labor
and overburdens the masses to maintain in
idleness vast legions OF non-producers.
The South American delegate, if visiting
the monarchical nations Of the European
continent, would have no occasion to ask,
"Where are your soldiers ?" They would
be omnipresent to his sight, and his every
movement would be paralleled by that of
an armed servitor of the Government. He
would be received with the rattle of mus
kerry and the clank of sabers, and his
passage would be between miles upon
miles of glittering rows of bayonets keep
ing back the common people from the
highway, lest they should take some part
in his welcoming. Every accessory of
arms, every engine of destruction, all the
appliances of the art of killing human
beings, would be paraded to impress him
with the grandeur and the strength of his
host. Here the song of thousands of
spindles, the roar of hundreds of furnaces,
the rattle of rapidly-revolving machinery,
the hum of myriad of busy industries
the cheers of millions of the masses who
touch elbows with him upon the highway,
and among whom he moves with no
thought Of armed guards and grim senti-
nels of war, are the melodies to the time of
which he makes his march through ma
ton of sixty-fve millions, vainly asking
Where are your soldiers {"

EDS. RECORD. UNION: During recent trip
to San Francisco l took occasion to visit
Golden Gate Park, and while strolling
through those beautiful grounds l came
to the place where stands that grand monu-
ment erected to the memory of Francis
Scott Key, the author of the Star Spangled
Banner While gazing upon that tribute
to his memory the following thoughts sug-
gested themselves:
As look upon this statue unveiled in
honor of your memory by the loyal people
of California, the thought comes, how
could the nation have done nobler act of
gratitude, than to perpetuate your memory
by placing this work of ar in this delight
full bower.
Yes, Key, you are rightfully named. The
key that will unlock the hearts OF rulers by
the soul-inspiring words you have written,
and prompt them to deeds of charity and
love.
You are sitting here, with the Goddess of
Liberty waving her banner over your head,
inviting all nations to bow at Freedom s
shrine as the echo of your immortal song
shall vibrate from sea to sea and from
shore to shore. Mrs. S. E. CLAYTON.
