Dom Pedro attributes the revolution in
Brazil to the abolition of slavery. The Re-
publicans would accept nothing less than
immediate emancipation, while the slave
owners were strongly opposed. When the
emancipation decree was signed the latter
Joined the Republicans out of revenge, and
the latter thus strengthened became very
aggressive. That they might have no good
reason for melting a revolution Dom Pedro
says he complied with all their demands.
This, however. did not fill the measure of
their ambition. The ex-Emperor scouts the
idea that the unpopularity of his daughter
had anything to do with the uprising, though
1t is true she did not enjoy the confidence
OF the people because her husband was a for
eigner. He had no intention Of abdicating
in her favor. That story was invented by
the Republicans for political purposes.

The trouble between the French and En-
glish growing out of the fisheries on the
coast Of Newfoundland is due to different
Interpretation of treaty rights. 1t is ad-
mitted by the English that the French have
the right to take fish along the western coast
Of the island, and to build and maintain huts
for the fishermen and racks for the driving of
fish, under certain restrictions. The French
however claim more than this. Their con-
tention is that they not only have these
privileges but also that they are entitled to
enjoy them exclusively, and that the English
fisherman who undertakes to share in them
is really trespasser. This the English
deny, and this is the pith of the controversy
between the the two nations regarding the
Newfoundland fisheries. Each side to the
controversy is able to produce some pretty
strong evidence to sustain its position, and
neither is disposed to yield. Arbitration b
talked of with the United States as arbitra-
tor, but the French are so distrustful Of the
English that they are disinclined to settle
the dispute in this way unless England will
bind herself in advance to abide by the deci-
AiAa,of the arbitrator. an implied reflection
upon her honor which, naturally enough,
England does not relish.

Senator Buffers idea of deporting the ne
groes to Africa does not seem to be very pop
ular in his own section, judging from the ex.
pressions Of opinion obtained by the Charles
ton News and Courier from prominent
Southern men. President Johnston, of Tu.
lane University, New Orleans, says he does
not regard the measure as one of any prac-
tlcal Importance in solving the race problem.
Walter II. Hill of Macon, Georgia, promi-
nent lawyer, says the negroes do not wish to
leave the South and could not be induced to,
and the white people, if put to the test,
would not be willing to give them up, mas
much as they are the "best and most docile
laboring population in the world" Senator
Reagan thinks 1t would be good thing for
the whites If the negroes would emigrate to
Africa. Senator Pugh thinks the only solu-
tion Of the race problem is to disfranchise
the negroes and scatter them, but he does
not look for disfIanchisement in this pener.
alton. Gov Fleming of Georgia, who an.
pears to be thorough Bourbon, thinks that
the exodus of the greater portion of the ne
gro population would on the whole prove
beneficial. IL is evident, however, that nei.
Their Fleming nor Reagan expects any gen.
eral exodus of the negro to Africa or any
where else.

The struggle over the abolition of the
French language in the Northwest Territory
of the Dominion was precipitated in the
Dominion Parliament last week by Mr.. Nc
Carthy who introduced a resolution to that
effect and supported it in long and strong
speech. BY the terms of the Confederation
the French language was placed on terms of
equality as far as its official use was con-
cerned with the English. Without this con-
cession in all probability confederation
could not have been accomplished. The
over provinces were opposed to it, but they

in the Northwest Territory is the direct out
growth of the Jesuits estates bill, and the
bitterness it gave rise to between Orange.
men and Catholics. Should Mr.. Mccarthy
resolution succeed the province of Quebec
would probably be exasperated to the verge
Of secession.

The territory of Idaho, which is knocking
for admission to the Union, has adopted a
constitution which bars Mormons from ex-
ercisirg the right Of suffrage. There are
good many Mormons in the territory, and
Its admission as State will, it is believed,
be the signal for much larger inttnx.
Hence the above provision of the constitu-
tion. But the con stitutionalIty of that pro-
vision is in -sSShbt, and it has been referred
to the Supreme Court for decision. If the
decision of the court should be favorable
Idaho would soon get into the Union, but
should it be otherwise the territory would
probably have to wait until, at least. the
-polygamy feature Of the Mormon religion is
more thoroughly eliminated from it than II
is at present.

Dispatches from the Dominion say it is
officially announced that the modWs uirendi
will expire on February is. With the expir-
alton of this arrangement American fisher
men are relegated to the treaty of 1918 for a
definition of their rights. Under the Cana
dian construction Of that treaty Amer
lean fishermen will be permitted to
enter the Dominion ports merely for wood
and water, to repair damage and to escape
storms. They will not be allowed to pur.
chase supplies or bait, nor to transship theiI
cargoes. After February 10 the fishing con-
troversy win be in practically the same con-
dition as before the Bayard treaty which
was rejected by the Senate year ago.

In letter to the Kennebec Journal the
Hon. 2. A. Gilbert contends that the state
ment in bis recent address to the Maine
Board of Agriculture in regard to the atti-
tude Of the Maine savings banks towards
Maine farms is not exaggerated. So far as it
implied strong Discrimination Of the banks
to invest in mortgages on Maine farms, he is
undoubtedly right. The principal fault the
PRESS finds with his address lies in his in
clination to find fault with the banks because
of this attitude, when, accepting his state
ments in regard to the depreciation of the
Maine farm and its unsalableness as true, tits
the only attitude they could assume without
rank treachery to their trust.

The New York Tribune publishes what it
claims to be the full text of an extradition
treaty just negotiated between Secretary
Blaine and Sir Julian Paunceforte, British
minister at Washington. The principal
crimes included in it in addition to those con-
tanned In the treaty of 1912, are embezzle-
ment. obtaining goods under false pretences
and fraud. Political offences are expressly
excepted from its provisions, and it is stipu-
lated that the person extradited shall be
ed only lor lhe- sr me aileged IN the ex-
traaItion proceedings. The treaty nego-
tiated by Mr.. Cleveland's Secretary of State
was repudiated by the Senate because it was
believed to cover political offences. AS this
one is not open to that objection, it will, nc
DOUBT, be promptly ratified. Honest people
in both the United States and Canada will
rejoice that an arrangement is about com
pleted by which each country will cease tt

CHICAGO. May 5.--The following summary
will appear in the Farmers Review this
week: Reports from our crop correspond
ents relative to spring wheat prospects are
encouraging. Seeding is about over and in
many cases the grain is up and making good
growth. Minnesota and Dakota correspond
ents began 10 complain of drouth last week.
but the recent heavy fall of snow and
rain throughout the North and West will
tend TO restore the confidence of farmers who
were beginning TO fear a repetition Of
last springs experience. Although it is still
early to form an estimate of the area seeded,
reports Indicate diminution from the acre
age usually sown in Illinois, Wisconsin and
Dakota. Nebraska correspondents report q
slight increase in acreage. The area seeded
in Minnesota and Iowa will probably be
about The same as that of last year. Taking
into account the favorable conditions for
seeding that have prevailed over the spring
wheat belt, and the timely rains that have
just fallen. farmers have reason to expect
good harvests from the crop We summarize
as follows the reports of correspondents rel
alive to the acreage, as compared with an
average: Illinois, 81 per cent; Wisconsin,
