The proposal to lend the governments
credit to the Nicaragua Canal company
reminds the people that the government
has never yet collected the money it lent
to the Pacific railroads 1t is easy to
lend money to these corporations, but so
far the government has shown no
capacity to get it back again, though
the promoters of great enterprises aided
by the government seem always to come
out with exceeding comfort to them
selves.

disastrous FIRE Minneapolis has experienced
in years. The damage to property may be

block at Fifth street and Hennepin avenue.
The Robinson block and the Russell block,

The fire caught in the upper stories of the
Lumber exchange, which was claimed to be
fire. proof, and burned fercely.
The water did not reach above the seventh
or eighth stories, and the fremen were nearly
powerless.
st. Paul was called upon for aid and re-
sponded with two engines. The thermome-

The Merchants Like II

New YORK, March A testimonial to
James G. Blaine from the leading wholesale
merchants in the dry goods, baggIng aud
leather trades in the city, has now been
signed by firms representing over $5O,OOO,-
600 invested in actual business.
The signers strongly indorse and support
Mr.. Blaine's policy for commercial reciproc-
1ty between the United States and South
American countries, and express the hope
that the movement, which has begun so
auspiciously by the treaty with Brazil, will
soon be extended to other nations.
The document is a remarkable one from
the fact that the signers represent every shade
of political opinion, many who have been
strongly opposed to Mr.. Blaine being among
the number.
They believe that the movement of reci-
procity is entirely above and beyond party
measure, and that it is one of the most inn
portant movements for the welfare of the
country that have been started in many
years.
Following is the testimonial:
To the Hon. James g. Blaine, secretary
of state, Washington, d. c.; The under
signed, wholesale dry goods merchants, ex-
pOrters, and others of the city of New York
Irrespective of party. desire to express
their appreciation of your action in the mat
ter of reciprocity with Brazil. and trust that
the wise and far seeing policy thus inaugu-
rated, may be extended to other South Amer
lean nations, thus materially increasing the
commercial prosperity of the United States.
Appended to the testimonials are the sigma
lures of 138 prominent wholesale dry goods
bagging and leather firms.
