LATEST FOREIGN NEWS.
BIaine's Reciprocity.


The U. S. Government has about
concluded its arrangements with
Brazil for reciprocity. February
9Th President Harrison issued a
proclamation setting forth the fact
and announcing the goods to be
imported free of duty from Brazil.
The articles mentioned are sugar,
molasses, coffee and hides. In con-
sideration thereof Brazil admits
free of duty all grains and pro-
ducts thereof, vegetables, meats,
oils, Goals, forest productions, all
kinds of machinery except sewing
machines, instruments and books
for the arts and sciences, railway
construction material and equip
ment. Besides this Brazil has re-
duced tariffs twenty-five per cent
on all other articles of American
manufacture that are dutiable.
This reciprocity means reduc
ton of 100000 of Brazilian i'm
ports from America. The present
annual importations of sugar from
Brazil amounts to $4,000 tons;
under the stimulous of the recipro-
city treaty it is expected the ship
ments will amount to 100000 next
year while the succeeding year it
will foot up 100000 tons. 1t is
estimated that in three years Bra
zil will pay the United States for
her manufactures and imports at
least $25, 100000.

REPUBLICAN, TREASON.

There is dire dismay in the admins
tration's camp. One of the great
sachems of Montana republicanism is in
outspoken revolt. The mighty eXgurgi-
tator, the linguistic phenomenon who
feeds on the dictionary and comes out in
.polysyllabled blotches, the politician
who represents Sanders and misrepre-
sents this state, has been interviewed in
Chicago, and openly proclaims that he
has bolted from fathers fondest hope.
1t is terrible blow for the daily Rus
sell Harrison. That this ~treacherous
stab should come from the man whose
cause the son has championed through
good report and evil report. That this
should be the reward of opening those
inspired editorial to his wild-eyed utter
ances! That for this man father should
have stopped to give the state Of Mon
tana premature birth! The sense of
gratitude is gone from the world, when
Sanders whoops for Blaine.
Worse than all, he has the audacity to
write down father and son as back
numbers. The son may live in Helena.
Sanders won't swear to the fact, but he
would make the world believe it is a
matter of the slightest consequence.
The son may own a lot in every county
in the state. Sanders careth not. His
tone would lead the public to infer that
the state and even the city actually con
tain better and brainier mon than the
son of tine president. His ~contemptuous
utterances insinuate that in the son and
his daily organ all the republicanism of
Montana, that is worth the name, does
not live and move and have its being.
And a foolish public will believe it;
there's the rub. Father fares worse
than the boy at the hands of this terri
bic iconoclast. He actually asserts that
Montana has been for Blaine since 1876,
and that the Maine mans nomination
cannot come too quickly. Father is a
thorough mossback on the silver ques-
ton, and his administration-well, fair
to mlddling describes it reasonably we'll.
But what are the chances of an old
hats retaining it's position on an ex-
posed and shaky peg, when a Blaine

faction comes to him, either, from his
own conclusion that emancipation is not
in the range of the psssible, except by
the abolition OF the small boy and the
invention OF auto-cooking steak and
potatoes. He bewails the lack of that
foresight which should have led Jetfer-
son to establish the Fourth of July on
the Goth of February, whereby the sum
total of the horrors of the day would
have been reduced three-fourths. His
one solaoe is in the thought that the day
comes but NICE a year.

New YoEK papers continue to exhibit
the rancor of defeat in the matter Of the
Worlds fair. They seldom miss an OPP
portunity to throw discredit upon the
enterprise, and are swift to lrophesy all
manner of failure. Much to the dis
grace of the New York press these things
are SO. The aggregate wisdom of the
country is more than that of the city
Oh the island, and by a large majority
the people were opposed to holding the
big fair in the eastern metropolis. In
all decency the press of New York, as
representing a defeated candidate for
the exposition, should be instant in sup
port of the great enterprise. Petty cav
ling and the %outcropping of spiteful
jealousy are not creditable to any COM
munity, and frequently convince the dis
interested of the superiority of the one
rallied at. The fair will be the greatest
ever held, of this the G~othamites may
rest assured, and it will break the record
in the matter of attendance, even if all
Of New York should stay at home. q

People who failed to attend the postponed

Saturday, WAS from seven to ten seconds
slow, but despite that fact all the heats
were .rotted down in the 4O's. The result
of the contest will be a boom in contests of
this kin in Helena, which gives promise of
lasting until the regular races in August.
The starters were j. Fishers p. B. G., W,

was won by Little Dick, p. b.. c.. second,

merchandise. July l tho import duty
was advanced, under the provisions of
the Mckinley law, one and one-tifth

The Geographic greeting sent by
Mayor Kleinschmldt and Donald Brad
ford, president Of the commercial club,
yesterday, to the editor of the Omaha
Bee, indicates that the men of Helena
are fully alive to the advantages which
will come from more direct communica-
ton with the prairie country OF the
middle west. The article which brought
forth the expression of kindly feeling
also shows that the great resources Of
Montana are appreciated by the states
south Of us. The people of Nebraska,
Kansas and Iowa recognize, at least in a
degree, the vast wealth of this noun
tain state, and whatever efforts our PEG
pie put forth to u more direct com
m%unication with those sections, will be
ably seconded by their merchants, farm
ers aud manufacturers. By united
effort, backed by the fact that the rail
road which first avails itself of the field
will secure a rich carrying trade, it will
not be long that the people will have to
wait for a direct line from Helena to
Omaha. 1t is an opportunity Of which the
Union Pacific railroad can now take ad-
vantage with the least expenditure.
But the Burlington is not SO far away,
while the Northwestern has an equal
chance with the latter road.
