The Weldon Extradltion law.

CanacA lis determined To be no lon
ger the moderu Alsatia, the place OF
sanctuary for American boodlers and
emhezzIers. Two centurics ago there
was a quarter in WhiteGriars, London.
which was the refuge of criminals aud
debtors, and il they could once get
within its limits they were safe fuOm
arrest and prosecution. 1t got to be a
disgraoe and shame to England, and
Parliament abolished it. Last week
the Canadian Parliament passed the
Weldon law, which enlarges the list OF
eKtraditable crimes so rs TO embrace
those of all descr! ptions. As first pro
posed, the law was made retroactive 50
as 10 cover the cases OF the rascals
who have hitherto been secure in the
Dominion. to the scandal of the good
citizens thereof, but that clause, after
something of n contest, was stricken
out, and the law now only applies to
all crimes committed after It's passage.
This law is in accordance with the
comfy OF nations, but is n departure
from immemorial practice. Except
under a treaty, no nation has right
to demand from another the surrender
of IA fugitive from justice. A request
by one government to another for the
surrender OF a notorious fugitive from
justice has Often been granted out of Il
spirit of good feeling and friendship,
but it is not accorded as a matter of
right. One of the most prominent in
stances of this kind was the surrender
of Tweed by the Spanish government
at the request OF the United States, the
treaty between the nations not cover
ing his case.
Our eXtradition treaty with Great
Britain was negotiated in 1912, and UNI
fortunately omitted all mention of the
crimes of larceny and enlightenment.
Hence, fugitives accused of those
crimes did not come within the terms
of the treaty, and the courts both in
the United States and in Canada would
refuse to give up the criminal. But
the evil has grown to such an extent
and has brought so much apparent dis
grace on the Dominion. us being Il
refuge for thieves, that the parliament
Of that country determined TO maintain
that bad emiuence no longer. The
eXtraditiOn treaty negotiated with
EuS tdnu ny our ldJe minister, MT.
Phelps, covered these crimes, and some
others that the senate appeared to OBJ
ject to, and the treaty was not ratified.
Hence the only way left for Canada
was to pass law making it the duty c.
the courts to deliver up fugitives from
justice, no matter where they came
from nor what oiTenses they are charg-
ed with. The law is carefully drawn,
and expressly provides that the person
surrendered shall not be tried for any
other crime than that of which he is
accused in CanadI. The law Is a wise
one, and will prove in the end to be
better for Canada than for the United
States. There will be no moro dis
graceful acce ssions to the American
colonies in Montreal and Quebec

Pearson as an Inventor.

When little more than boy the late
Postmaster Pearson of New York in
vented n liie-saving boat He was
poor and unable to raise the money
necessary to have his invention patent
ed. He went to a man OF means, who
promised TO take the boat in hanl and
see that it was properly put before the
public in conside ration OF an interest
in it. When young Pearson found
that the product of his inventive gen
Jus was marketed he also found that by
some legal trickery he had been wholly
dcfrauded of hi ;rights in it. The patent
proved valuable and boats constructed
upon its principle arc now in use all
along the coast, but Mr.. Pearson never
reached a cent OF profit. AT the cen
tenial exhibition in Philadelphia in
1876 the original model of this life-sav-
ing boat was one of the things to be
seen. As Mr.. Pearson's eye fell upor
it, he remarked to the persons whC
were with him: There is my boat. y

The prospects for the early admis-
sion OF Idaho TO the sisterhood OF
states are seriously embarrassed by
the preponderance of Mormon voters
over the Gentle population. The
balance OF power of that territory is
virtually in the hands of the Mormons,
and they have more than once dictat-
ed the choice of delegates to congress.
IN the event of a constitutional con-
gention, there is little doubt that the
Mormons would attempt to capture it,
and color the constitution for the pro-
posed state TO their own liking. The
situation is an unfortunate one, and
Idaho had better make up her mind
TO face it.

Theodore Child, in an article in
Harper's Bazaar, ON the use of nap
kins at the dining table, says:
You may have heard travellers
scott at the practical Frenchman who
siuffs one corner of his napkin in
side his shirt collar and spreads il
fully over the front Of his person
from his chin down to his knees.
This is the practice of the French
people OF the middle aud lower
classes, who are thrifty and prudent
and who wish to eat at their ase and
not spot their clothes. There is u
reason, and an excellent reason, for
so spreading the napkin, and il |

restaurant or club, and had on my
spotless shirt and open waistcoat or

man does, and so / should dine at
