November, 1850, he has rapidly pushed his
way to the front, and is considered a for
midable opponent by the best swift footed
young men in the country.
Remington is a trifle heavy for a Splinter.
but despite this fact and the fact that he
is a slow starter he works up a rafting
gait then he once gets under Roadway
and usually surprises his fellow contest
ants at the finish. In build he is said to
resemble the late Harry johnson when
that noted Splinter first began running.
Remington is a graceful performer and
never loses his head. His distances are
from fifty yards to n quarter Of a mile.
He has run a surprisingly great number
Of dead heats with the best amateur
~sprintcrs, and has on several occasions de
feated e~N-Chnmpion Fred Westing.

One OF the very promising trotters the
present season has rapidly brought to the
front Is Keno f. He began the season
with no blAre Of trumpets, and as his pre-
vious limo had only been $40 his owner,
Peter Olinger, of Dubuque, Ia, even was
amazed Mt the manner in which Keno f..
pared down his record. In June, at Du.
buque, he won the 2:3T class In straight
heats, his best time being 2:2S. At Cedar
Rapids he knocked of thrge-quarters Of u

he swept everything before him by devel-

A week later he defeated Jessie Gaine-
at HAmline by harder work and came
away with n still lower record Of 2:lg9l.

The American b

years. 1uc AIneTlC2n Dill has
been enforced in all countries
with absolute impartiality. The French
decree singles out the United States
from all other countries, and prohibits
its products alone, while the similar
products of the rest of the world are ad-
mitted. The American bills make no
charges against the quality of the
product, whose importation they regu.
late or tax. The French decree is based
upon the indefensible charge, that the
American product excluded is unwhole-
some, though this charge has been
repudiated by the French academy of
medicine itself, and though this pro-
hibited and unwholesome product has
recently been crowned by the highest
prize of our own universal exposition.
"France is and has been for nine years
past the persistent aggressor; it has
absolutely prohibited the importation OF
an American product on indefehsible
charges. 1t still maintains this prohi-
bition in spite OF the demonstrated facts
that nothing is thereby gained, either
for its own consumers, or its own pro-
ducers, and the only appreciate effect
is to do injustice to Il century old friend,
by openly discriminating against that
friend in favor of Germany, Italy, and
England.
after such record, and in advance
of the slightest known movement to
amend it, how can France have reason
to expect, as your excellency indicates
that its evidence of good will should
now be reciprocated by the United
States? He who seeks justice should
first do juctice." Much more should
that nation which seeks friendly con-
sideration for it's merchants, refrain
first from injustice to the merchants OF
the country appealed to, and from the
defamation of that country's products. "
After calling attention to an offer from
Washington to modify our customs bill
at the request of France, in regard to
appeals from cases of alleged under
valuation, and stating that this friendly
action and removal of the duty on works
of art had passed unnoticed by France,
Reid concludes as follows:
From our point of view, then, the
case stands thus: The French govern
ment has persisted for nine years in an
indefensible act, discriminating espe-
cially against United States commerce.
Meanwhile it complains of new laws by
the United States government, far less
severe and in no way discriminating
against French commerce. Its COM
plants receive prompt and considerate
attention, and the friendly disposition
thus shown evokes no recognition. 1t
cannot be believed that with full
understanding of the case, the French
government deliberately chooses that
attitude.
"Your excellency has been necessarily
much precipitated OF late with other
matters, but cannot believe that when
you come to give the case full attention
you can be satisfied with it. Now, as
heretofore, make my appeal to French
friendllness, French justice, and 1 may
add, to an enlightened sense OF French
interests"

CHICAGO EXHIBIT.
Major Ben Truman Spoken of for Gen
eral Manager.

There will be meeting of the execu-
tive committee on Wednesday 20 ms,
at II a. m. at the chamber of commerce
rooms in Los Angeles, when a general
manager will be chosen, and steps
taken to have the exhibit placed in
Chicago by the middle of September
Mr.. Truman is most anxious to have
the exhibit in running order as soon as
possible, as within the next thirty days
travel in this direction will commence,
and the display of fruits, vegetables,
and cereals will turn many an undecided
man in this direction. Major Ben
Freeman is the choice of the citizens
for the position of general manager.
He represented California at the
worlds fair at New Orleans, at the cen
tennial at Philadelphia, at the exposi-
ton at Paris, and at London. No man
in the United States has had the ex-
perience of these matters that Major
Truman has. Himself writer of note,
and an old newspaper man, he is
known to all the editors of newspapers
in the east and west, and will be able to
do us immense good by getting eastern
papers to give us credit for what people
can raise here.

Associated Press Dispatches.
LONDON, August 15.-In the commons
tonight, Alexander Stavely Hall ques-
toned the government regarding the
position OF the Bering sea negotia-
tions. He said, careful inquiry on the
spot had satisfied him that the methods
by which British vessels conducted their
fishing, led to no undue waste of seal
seals were recklessly slain.
Ferguson, spes king for the govern
ment said that no adequate judgement
could be formed on the negotiations or
or the diplomatic correspondence on the
subject until the house possessed Sails
bury's final reply, which could not be
put upon the table until it had been
presented to the United States secretary
of state. When the whole cores.
pondence was published, he believed the
house would be satisfied with the spirit
and manner in which the negotiations
British government. The aim of Sails
bury's action had been to establish a
closed time for seals by international ar
rangement, and at the same time to
prevent the further Selling of British
vessels and secure compensation for
seizures already made.
The under foreign secretary's state
ment was received with marks of ap-
proval.
Commencing ON the Boring sea blue
book. the Times declares that it confirms
the conclusion that the conduct of the
American government in rejecting
Pauncefote's modus vivendi, in instruct
ing American cruisers to dismantle
British vessels, and in breaking off ne
gotiations, evinces arbitrariness and
contempt for reasons happily rare in
international relations nowadays.
"Salisbury's firmness," says the Times,
twill show the colonists that the home
government is not, as they sometimes

matte notes.
The Standard says: The thunders in
which Blaine has been dealing, are the

Even, if America possessed the exclu-

justified in resenting most strongly the
mode by which the pretension was made
good"
The article concludes thus: ''The
position as it stands is not one that the
friends Of good will between the nations
can view, without misgiving.9
The Chronicle says, England and
America may have diferenced, but they
must remain friends. 1t hopes Blaine's
rejection of Salisbury's proposals will be
only transient, as a protest against the
apparent breach of faith on Salisbury's
