Belfast is the centre of the
world for Linen Handkerchiefs.
Fifteen years ago not a cotton
or a cotton-and-linen Hand
kerchicf was made in Belfast :;
now more than half that are
sent out from that city are
either cotton or cotton mixed.
Cotton has crept into some
Of the very fine things, but
you don't suspect it until the
wear and wash test shows the
cheat.
For the person of taste who
wants a snow-white Handker-
chief, soft and silky. one that
will not wash fuzzy or turn
yellow with use-Llmem
We began by selling Moth
ing but Linen as Linen. We
keep to it. The flood of union
goods has never reached our
counters.
This year our importation of
pure Linen goods has been
larger and more varied than
ever before. All sorts. To-
day we have space to hold up
but one thing-Men's Plain
White Handkerchief.
We took big lot of them.
Exactly the quality, style and
size that has been pronounced
from Paris and London to St.
Petersburg just the right thing
for a we'll dressed man. French
size-not too big; and French
hem-one-half inch.
They are put up dozen and
half dozen in a box-intended
for the holiday trade. But we
crowd them ahead of the sea-
son and you save rs to IS per
cent by it.

Tut LONDON STRIKE.

The great London strike has closed
and the dock-men 10 back to work al
increased wages, all Of which Is right
IL will be observed that the peculiar
sort OF work that the dock hands DO 1:
absolutely different from the msnufac
turing work, and that the strike had Nc
relation whatever TO the elements OF
production. Ii was simply pure case
of the right of labor to a proper com
pensation from employers who were
farming out their labor TO the people
who were willing TO pay for unloading
and loading just what the strikers
asked
Twenty million dollars have been lost
on this strike. and the city OF London
will feel its effects for years. But
whether this will be lesson TO EN-
ployers to be just, or to laborers to be
patient. IL an open, standing question.
The ever standing battle goes on be-
tween the opposing elements OF labor
and capital, but one good result has been
reached. and that is the accomplished
! fact that strike can be settled amicably.
)The London strikers numbering $50 600
were not guilty Of any violence, and
when laborers choose TO assert their
rights in that manner, il ia no more
than il farmer declined TO bring his
produce TO market unless he was offered
. fair price.
The relations between labor and cap
itaI. II taxes are just, can always be
settled in that manner.
The great difficulty with us in Ameri-
ca is that the market or the great ex.
change where capital and labor trades

1t ~ impossible for labor to be justly
adjusted at proper wages if the en-
ployer has the power to put the pro
ductive capacity Of the whole country
in the hands of few people, who ar
range the prices OF the product. not for
the markets OF the world, but for the
home market, which they own. Gov
eminent gives the Carnagies and such
men O control of the home market, and
prevents the American laborer from
getting the raw materials at the same
prices as working men in other coun-
tries get them.
Hence tho labor and the production
and the whole immense interests OF
manufacture in our country are con-
stpated
We are not allowed to work for the
markets of the world. We are forced

when the few employers see that their
supply is too great for the narrow home
market, they shut down. and the

Tile NICAKAGIA CANAL.

The projectors of this great work
seem to have gone into it PROMPTLY and
with business-like spirit and without
any boom to create wild sensation.
They are able men. approved by
Congress and by the country, and they
thus display their perfect confidence in
the practicability Of this enterprise.
News from Costa Rica confirms what
We said at the time of the sensational
reports of objections to the project on
the part Of that country. The political
contest in Costa Rica has absolutely no
relation to the canal, and the people OF
that republic of both parties fully un-
derstand that their country best in
tercsts are identified with the Inter
Oceanic canal.
The New York Times, which it relia-
bio in all things and has been always
fully posted in this particular affair,
says that tho gratifying feature 10 that
the canal question is not serious ele-
ment in the controversy, and that the
excitement at one time alleged iii Pana-
ma advices to be due to antagonism
with Nicaragua on tho construction OF
the canal, was really only Il develop
ment of local politics.
A short time ago the meeting OF the
Chamber Of Commerce at San Fraucis-
co, representing the mercantile inter
ests of the whole Pacific slope, unanl-
mously recommended that Congress be
petitionsd to push the work on the
Nicaragua canal to speedy completion
The next time, therefore, that thu
great question comes before Congress II
will not be in the hands of its patriotic
uoonsors, who sought from Congress
merely charter, but it will be brought
before that body as thing of immense
and all-pervading interest to the whole
peoplo of the United States, who recog
nize that the inter-ocean waterway II
the key to the two western continents
aud TO the trade lines around the whole
world.
The business mind of the United
States has at last comprehended that II
would be suicidal folly to neglect the
opr,ortunity offered by this grand pro
iect TO make q continuous coast liA'
from Maine to Alaska, and at the SAINT
time TO hold the key to all Western
commerce.
The Nicaragua canal is the logical re-
suit of that broad and progressive idef
OF American history that was projected
by the instinct of the people III the ac
auirement of Louisiana and the Missls
s,ppi river area, and then of Texas and
Mexico.
When this American intelligence felt
that it had its grasp on the Pacific
coast, even soldier saw that one OF the
first things in the stipulations OF
the treaty of "Guadaloupe In
dalco" should be a right OF
ocean transit at the lsthmus of Tehuan'
tapec. When Congress considers thi'
matter again il will be entirely IN
different aud broader manner thar
when the friends of the Nicaragua
canal had to fight the lobbyists of DE
Lesseps.

Virginia which shows certain grand
circuits and certain local circuits, all
of which it is comparatively easy TO at

There are the little districts remote
from the postofiices, that in the noun

BLAINE Of THE COD AND MACKEREL.
Considering the aggressive tone Of
Mr. Blaine and his immediate admirers
during the Presidential canvass in re-
gard to the Canadian fisheries, it is "a
matter Of legitimate curiosity why moth
ing has been heard on the subject from
the State Department since he assumed
control. Our Ottawa dispatch this morn
ing states that at the Dominion CAPT

is playing waiting game and
it is plain that he is doing SO. But
what he expects to calmly waiting it is
not easy to see. Ii the position taken
before the election be a sound one. 1t is
his plain duty to begin at once the poll
