THE END OF THE rEE-Ur.

The disagreement between the marine
engineers and the captains, because of
which most of the steamboats, on Puget
sound have been tied up, was settled yes
terday, and the steamers are nov running
on their routes as usual. The precise
terms of the arrangement have not been
made public. but it is understood that the
truce is an honorable one to both sides and
that the final settlement will be based
upon the decision of the supervising in
spector in the case of Engineer Smith,
which has been appealed.
The settlement is a credit to both of the
contending bodies. 1t shows that when
sensible mepvarc Wiling to come together
and yeason about matter of dispute, an
arx6ngement of some kind can usually be
arrived at. The public is the chief gamer
by the resumption of traffic, as it was the
chief sufferer by the tie-up, and to the con-
servative captains and engineers who
brought about the arrangement the thanks
OF the public are due.

CANADA AND THE TARIFF.

The Mckinley tariff increased the duty
on barley, despite the Democratic declara-
ton that the duty would have to be paid
by the Americans because a similar grade
of barley could not be raised on this side,
and the brewers must have the Canadian
product.
For the first year under the new law
the imports of Canadian barley were over
1900, 900 bushels less than in the preceding
year. Its importation has almost ceased.
During the month of September only 1898
bushels were imported, against 1880
bushels in the same month last year.
More barley is used today in this country
than ever before, and the American farmer
is supplying the barley instead of his
Canadian competitor, so that the farmers
on this side are about Sc, 900. 900 better off
because of the Mckinley tariff on the
single item of barley. Under the McKin-
ley tariff imposing duty of 80 cents a
bushel on Canadian barley, the price of
barley at Toronto fell 80 cents below the
price on this side, and has remained at
that figure. No. 8 barley that was selling
at 66 cents bushel in Toronto before the
Mckinley tariff took effect, sold some ten
days ago at 43 cents in face of
side. The Canadian farmer has to
pay the duty at loss of S12 per acre to
him on his barley crop this year, but the
American consumer does not pay more for
his barley. If the duty was taken off. the
price N Canada would go back to what it
was before. and the American farmer
would be deprived of over SO, 0OO, 900 for the
benefit of the Canadian farmer.
Canadian eggs, taxed 5 cents dozen by
the Mckinley act, have ruled cents a
dozen less in Canada than across the
border in the United States. Beans,
poultry, butter and other things sell for
prices that exactly allow for the duty. The
same is true of wool. There has been a
decrease in one year in the farm products
imported from Canada of over $4,000, 600,
to say nothing of the lower prices the
Canadian farmer gets.
No wonder the Canadian emigration has
been very large the past year and that the
public agitation of the question of political
union with the United States is increasing
in strength and earnestness of expression.
Within short time meetings have been
held at Toronto, Montreal. Quebec. Wind
sor, Woodslee. Stony Point, Belle River
and many other places. The ultimate
political union of Canada with the United
States is predicted by Professor Goodwin
Smith. Edward Blake and Wilfred Laurier,
leader of the Liberal party

THE CIRCUIT JUDGES.

President Harrison has shown rare
Judgment in his selection of the men who
were yesterday named to fill the new
circuit Judgeships. The appointees are all
men of high character and attainments.
and several Of them are men OF national
reputation.
General Nathan Golf, the Republican
champion in West Virginia, is probably
the most widely known of the new judges.
His career has been notable and an hon
orable one. William II. Taft, the present
solicitor general, is also well and favorably
known throughout the county. He is a
son OF the late Judge Aiphonso Taft, who
served the United States as its minister at
Vienna and at st. Petersburg
The other gentlemen named for these
positions are almost equally well known.
They are all clean and able, and the ap-
pointmeBts, without exception, are
worthy of commentator.

Lincoln and the Colonel.
The Overland.


An officer wearing the insignia of a colonel's
rank came in, and Mr.. Lincoln was full of sym.
pathy, which he shed like the summer rain,
switch makes the fields it hastes to bright and
green" He drew his chair near the colonel
whose complaint was, in BRIEF that he had been
unjustly dismissed from the army for drunken
ness on duty The officer had good and gal
liant record. Lincoln knew him. He never for
got such case. The lines in the soldiers face
