The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1892-03-30

The Bangor Commercial draws the in
ference from the fact that the Republican
papers are generally condemning Senator
Hill that they are afraid of him and there
fore do not want to see him nominated by
the Democrats for the Presidency. In
stead of the Republican papers being
afraid of Hill we have no doubt that the
great majority of them would rather see
him nominated than any other of the
persons named as possible candidates,
looking at the matter purely from the
standpoint of Republican success. The
Republicans are condemning Hill simply
because he has been guilty of the most
outrageous trickery, because he repre-
sents the lowest element in the commu-
nifty, because he is demagogue, and be-
cause he is utterly devoid of principle.
They do not fear him, they simply des-
pise him.

The Hon. George Fred Williams makes
the astonishing statement that the Bland
bill was defeated by the Democrats. Now
the facts as disclosed by the test vote
are these: Sixty-six Republicans and 50
Democrats voted to lay the bill on the
table; while II Republicans and 1919
Democrats voted to order the previous
question upon it. If all the Republicans
had abstained from voting the previous
question would have been ordered by a
majority of Al. Of the II Republicans
who voted Sc opposed the bill, or six
seventies of the whole number. Of the
23l Democrats who voted 50 opposed the
bill, or only little more than one-third
of the whole number. While but one
seventh of the Republicans voted for
the bill nearly two-thirds of the Demo
Gratis voted for it. How in the face of
these facts and figures Mr.. Williams can
declare that the Democrats defeated the
bill passes comprehension.

bury has practically consented to a re-
newal OF the arrangement of last year
for the preservation of the seals. By the
treaty two questions are submitted to the
arbitrators, the first of which concerns
our right to exclusive Jurisdiction in the
sea. AS matter of fact we have never
really claimed any such jurisdiction.
Congress on two occasions, we think,
absolutely refused to adopt a resolution
which setup such a claim, and in the cor
respondence which passed between Mr.
Blaine and Lord Salisbury Mr. Blaine did
not base the CLAIM of this government to
prevent pelagic sealing upon any existing
right upon our part to close the sea.
Practically he admitted that Behring Sea
was not mare ctdusuns. It can hardly
be expected, therefore, that the arbitra-
tors will decide this point in our favor.
The second point, and the one on which
we must rely for decision in our favor,
concerns our ownership of the seals and
the right to protect them wherever they
may be. Assuming the seals to belong
to us we could assert the right to protect
them in the open sea without asserting
at the same time any exclusive jurisdic-
ton over the sea. This is the ground on
which Mr.. Phelps, ex-minister to Eng
land, placed our claim to protect the
seal against the poaehers. If this claim
is sustained of course it follows that all
our seizures of Canadian vessels engaged
in pelagic sealing have been lawful, and
that we may continue to make these seiz-
ures in the future, and that England will
have no right to interfere. If, on the con-
trary, the arbitrators decide this claim
to be unfounded, then it follows that our
seizures of Canadian vessels engaged in
pelagic sealing and our interference with
their business has been unlawful. This
would impose upon us the obligation of
paying damages to those vessels.

Senator Hills tour in the South ap-
pears to have borne fruit already. In a
pitched battle in Polk county, Georgia,
between the supporters of Cleveland and
Hill for delegates to the State convention
the latter won by large majority. The
Farmers Alliance crowd were all for
Hill while the Bourbons were generally
for Cleveland AS the great majority of
the delegates to the state convention will
come from the country where the Alliance
is strong, Hill will undoubtedly control
that body and send delegation to
Chicago in his favor. Southern delegates,
however, are likely to be much less in
fuential in the national convention than
delegates from the North, inasmuch as
the South can be depended upon to sup
port any Democrat who may be nomi-
mated.
