THE SEAL 1NDusrRY.

The Portland Oregonian says that most
of the men engaged in killing seals in
Behring Sea are Americans. They fit their
vessels out from Victoria in the expecta-
ton that the British Navy will afford some
protection to vessels sailing under the
British flag. 1t is we'll known that raw
skins are made into furs in England. The
English have process which they impart
to no one, and which no one has as yet
discovered. The London fur is the real
article, all others kind of imitation.
Perhaps IN time another process may be
discovered equally good, but we speak OF
the industry as it stands. Now, if Ameri-
cans catch the seals, and the English con-
vert the skins into valuable furs, what par
ticular interest has Canada in the ques-
ton? Yet it is Canada that has made all
the trouble. Lord Salisbury admitted
years ago that the seals should be pro-
tected, and that protection could only be
afforded by making it unlawful to hunt
them except under certain conditions. But
if Behring Sea is an open sea, how can the
seals be protected? Lord Salisbury and
Mr.. Blaine would easily have come to an
understanding on the basis of protection to
the seals if Canada had not interrupted
negotiations with demand that Canadian
vessels engaged in seal-fshing should be
protected from capture. The demand OF
Canada caused Lord Salisbury to shift his
ground, but it does not appear upon ex-
animation that Canada has any consider
able interest in the seal industry. There
is probably from $4,000 to 100000 ex-
pended in Victoria each year in fitting out
sealers, and this seems to be about the ex-
tent OF the Canadian interest in the sealing
business. There is no danger of Great
Britain going to wal to retain for colony
100000 a year expended in the furtherance
of an object which Lord Salisbury has said
ought not to be accomplished. Mr.. Blaine
has said that the United States will claim
no right in Behring Sea which it had not
accorded to Russia when Russia owned
Alaska, and has shown so conclusively
that the United States never contended
against Russia'S jurisdiction over the dis
puted ground that an argument against
Mr.. Blaine's position will seem much like
an attack upon the multiplication table.

IN SMOOTH WATER.

a newspaper which loses no opportunity
to urge San Francisco to set the bond-mill
in motion says in effect that while the Ar
gentine Republic was sailing in smooth
water and apparently bound for the haven
of national success and prosperity Presi-
dent Celman was the most popular man in
the country; but when adverse winds be-
gan to blow there arose a clamor for
change Of command. President Celman
represented the party of so-called progress.
He Planned improvements and borrowed
the money to mars them with. He worked
the bond-mili with 4 celebrity that would
have been gratifying to several Of our cor
tempOraries, if the scene Of operations had
been in California. He caused The issue O.
bonds, payable in gold, when the paper cur
Teney Of the Government was at heavy
discount, the bonds bearing high rates Of
interest, also payable in gold. OF course,
while the money was being expended there
were flush times, and Celman was the idol
of the people. But there came a time when
the drain of gold to pay interest with was
too heavy to be borne, and after good deal
of wobbling Celman had to give way. The
result surprised no one, least of all the En-
gliSh creditors. Some arrangement will be
made 10y which the purchasers of bonds will
get about two dollars for one invested, and
the people, like those of Egypt will have
to work the debt out.

BRAINS IN COMEDY.

An actor of a serious turn of mind and
considerable appreciation of art in acting
recently made the remark that the less
brains a comedian has the more successful
he is likely to be. This of course made
some of our successful comedians angry.
When actors of this description act as if
they had no brains they want the public to
believe that they are full of brains, but
have the art to conceal the fact An East
ern journal takes the comedians side of the
question with the general remark that
there is no kind or degree of work in the
world for which brains do not constitute a
superior equipment" This may be true of
every kind offwork, except what is known
on the stage as horse play. Brains certain
ly unfit a man for that kind of work.
Brains develop dignity and pride Of char
acter which takes the life out of that kind
of performances. To do as we'll as one can
one should not have brains enough to think
of the ridiculous figure he is making of
himself. A horse-play actor may agree to
do almost anything for salary, but to do
his very best he must remain unconscious
of his close resemblance to an idiot. The
advantage Of having brains is that the actor
who has them works out Of the horse-play
rut, while the actor who has none continues
in it and is happy. He does not know
enough to know that he ought to work out.

SIGNS OF THE TIMES.

A writer in the Age-Herod of Birming-
ham, Ala. says that lone of the best signs
of the times is that the agitation of the
force bill has had no effect upon Southern
progress. The great industrial advance
ment keeps right ahead and prosperity is
not checked" The writer fortifies the as
sertiOn by an enumeration of a number of
new enterprises organized in single week
making a showing that would be true at
the present time only of districts in the
South. While this condition of things is
exceedingly gratifying it would be surpris-
ing if it were not so. Northern capital will
feel more secure in the South under laws
which provide fair elections by the people.
There is nothing in the Elections Bill that
need cause alarm in North or South except
among politicians who have undertaken to
regulate affairs without much regard to the
popular vote. While the South is credited
with having had the ablest politicians in
the country in Congress its representatives
have always got themselves or the wrong
side Of current issues. Sixty years ago the
South wanted to fight to prevent the en-
forcemeat of protective tariff law. Thirty
years ago they did fight to prevent the en-
forcement of a policy making slavery To-
cal Institution. The result Of the struggle
of 1880 was that the protective policy was
established, but applied industrially only
in the North. For thirty years the South
continued to grow cotton, sell it in the
raw state and import its wooden and
cotton goods. Southern statesmen thought
the sheep industry beneath their dig
nifty. They held themselves above the
mental work of converting the cotton
they grew into the garments they had
to wear. Ever since the war which de-
stroyed slavery the South politically has
maintained its opposition to the protective
policy. In Congress and in the electoral
colleges they are practically solid on that
point. But the South now feels the i'm
pulse of policy it has steadily opposed.
The Northern capital which is making the
South the most prosperous part Of the I'm
ion would not have gone South to compete
with the products of European factories
