Rlaine,s Recinrocitx Policy.

Mr.. Blaine does not feel certain that
congress will adopt his reciprocity policy.
although the Senate has adopted it to the
extent of so amending the tariff bill as TO
! give the President the power TO admit cof-
fee. sugar and hides free from those coun-
tries which agree to admit products from
this country free. and he has therefore
written another letter pointing out its ad-
vantages This letter. although addressed
to the editor OF toe Boston Journal, is
intended to have its weight with the con-
ference committee to which the tariff bill
has been committed.
It is, of course. uncertain what report
that committee will make on the reciprocity
amendment. The nate conterees uu-
doubtediy will insist upon the Gme ldment.
They could hardly do otherwise under the
circumstances, but Mr.. Blaine seems to
think that the House conferees will oppose
it. II they do it will be defeated, in all
probability. There are republicans in the
House who are ready to vote for it, but it
is understood that the leading House repub-
iicans oppose it. The democrats cannot be
depended upon TO vote for it, because they
think that congress has not the colstitu-
tutional right to confer upon the President
the power TO determine when certain i'm
ports should b. admitted fres of duty. A
few republican votes in the House, there
fore, together with the votes of the demo-
Gratis, would be sufficient to defeat 1t.
Mr.. Blaine argues strongly for reciproc-
ity in his letter. He understands the sub
ject pretty thoroughly, and he makes it
appear that free trade between this country
ana the West Indies and Central and South
America would be a good thing for us.
There is no doubt that he is right about it,
but the protectionists who are now direcs-
ing the party seem to think otherw WISE They
have an idea that to adopt Blaine's recipoc-
ity policy would be to deal the protective
system its death blow. Aud yet Blaine
tells them that 1.-The enactment of reciproc-
ity is the safeguard of protection. The
defeat of reciprocity is the opportunity of
free trade.
Mr.. Blaine, in his letter, is not as sincere
as he ought to be, or else he would not have
said that every free trader in the Senate
voted against the reciprocity amendment"
to the tariff bill without stating why they
voted against it. He knew why they voted
against it, and yet he tried to create the
impression that they did so because they
were opposed to reciprocity. He ought to
have stated the whole truth.

lndisputable evidences of the death of
Robert Ray Hamilton have been received by
his family. Doubt no longer exists that he
was drowned in Snake river, Idaho. Whether
he died by accident or design will probably
never be known. But his large estate sur
wives. So does the notorious Eva Steele
who, by means of an infant waif misrepre-
sentated to be his offspring, forced him to
marry her. She is serving term in Tren
ton penitentiary for stabbing the nurse
while both were drunk Her sentence ex-
pires in March. She claims to be Hamil-
tons lawful widow ami insists that the
child is his and should inherit his estate.
She will fight it out i'll court. When told
of Hamllton's death she affected deep dis
tress. But her grief was mauifestly tenn
pered by lively anticipations of pecuniary
consolation and expensive mourning.
Death terminated Hamiltol's suit for d.
vorce, which was nearly won. Still, his
relatives can begin another suit for the
same purpose to protect his estate; and with
the evidence already on record they will
probably win easily. They will not sur
render his property to the adventures.

Robert Louis Stevenson came very near
suffering very serious loss while on a trip
between Samoa and Auckland. The vessel
on which he was passenger caught fire.
The sailors began throwing articles which
were on fire overheard. The account SAYS
that Mrs. Stevenson, who was standing on
deck watching the progress of the fire, and
preparing to leave the vessel when neces-
sary, saw two of the crew dragging from
below large burning box, and raise it to
heave it into the sea. Recognizing in an
instant the box as that belonging to her
husband, she sprang forward with scream
OF dismay, seized the nearest mau by the
arm aud begged him to drop it. He did so,
aud after being deluged with water the box
was saved. 1t contained all of Stevenson's
unpublished manuscripts, the result of
many months hard work, among them
being the story he has written to order for
prominent magazine, and for which he is
to receive "a 900 sterling, as we'll as a great
portion of his history of Samoa" Mr..
Stevenson is fortunate in having viii who

If he had lost his manuscripts he would
still have had fortune in her.

pressed more fragrant vituperation than
argument. Violent utilization of an oppo-

effected is that he made a rather startling
