DEAR SIR:
have much pleasure in stating that I, as exec
utor under the will of the late Colonel Shadwell
Fl. Clerke, have this day received payment in full
of the policy effected by him in your Office
It seems that by some oversight the Annual
Dues payable in September, 1891, were not paid;
but your Association never raised any difficulty on
this score, although the policy was in force tor less
than year. 1t is true that subsequent Mortuary
Calls were received in respect of the policy, which,
according to English law, amounts to awaver ofthe
forfeiture but the circumstance might have been
laid hold of as pretext tor delay.
am, dear Sir,
Yours truly,

HOW PARKS MAYBE ACQUIRED.

Some very able lawyers are of the
opinion that the present charter con
fers ample power upon the city to exer-
else the right of eminent domain for the
acquisition of parks and boulevards.
Section l0S of the charter empowers
the Board OF Park Commissioners to de-
wise, suggest and recommend TO the
mayor and council system of public
parks, parkways and boulevards within
the city or within three miles of the
city limits and to designate the lands
and grounds necessary to be used, !"
purchased or appropriated" for such
purpose. And thereupon it shall be the
duty of the mayor and council to take
such action as may be necessary for the
appropriation of the lands and grounds
so designated.
Webster defines the meaning of sap
preparation" as follows:
!. The act of setting apart or assigning to
particular use or person, or of taking to
ones self in exclusion of all others applicu-
ton to special use or purpose, as of piece
of ground for park.
Now mark the language of the char
ter. The park commission is to
designate the lands necessary to be
used, and it is made the duty of the
mayor and council to take such action
as may be necessary for the appropria-
tion OF the lands and grounds so
designated.
Does not this language expressly con
template the taking of the lands deemed
necessary for parks whether the owners
are willing TO sell or not2 What else
could the statute rIean, when it provides
that the board shall designate what
grounds are necessary? If they have no
right of eminent domain then designat-
ing tho grounds would amount to moth
ing IL the owner refused to part with
them
But the charter goes further. 1t
makes ii the duty of the mayor and
council to appropriate the lands and
grounds designated as necessary. Does
the word appropriate" mean to acquire
by purchase? Certainly not, because
the charter says purchased or appro-
priated," making clear distinction be-
tween buying the land and taking it
under appraisement.
Further on in the Same section OF the
charter the intent of the law to convey
the right TO appropriate the condemna-
tion is expressed in the following Ian
guage:
And IL such lands are in the limits of other
cities or villages, such cities or villages shall
cease TO have jurisdiction over such lands
after the said land is acquired for park pur-
poses as aforesaid, by gift, purchase, con-
demnation or otherwise, and said commis-
sion are hereby authorized TO purchase or
coudemn land In cities or villages within
said limits meaning within the limits of
Florence, south Omaha or any other town

THE CAN1DTAN COMMISSIONERS.

The commissioners on the part OF the
Canadian government to negotiate
reciprocity treaty with the United States
are in Washington, and the country will
probably know in short time what
propositions they have to submit rs II
basis for negotiations. These will have
to be very much broader than any yet
made or suggested by the Canadians in
order to receive any consideration from
this government. 1t will be useless to
invite negotiations if Canada has moth
ing better TO offer than "a free exchange
OF natural products, and it is presumed
that this is fully understood by the COM
missioners. Reciprocity on that basis
would simply be II revival of the old
treaty, and this no party in the United
States would agree to do. That arr ange-
ment was altogether one-sded in its
effects and proved an expensive expert
ence for this country, which abandoned
it as soon as it was able to do so. 1t can
never again be drawn into similar ar
rangement.
Secretary Blaire has already very
clearly indicated what will be necessary
to secure reciprocity between the
United States and Canada, so long us
the present administration has anything
to do with the matter. Only when
Canada is willing to negotiate for a gem
eral exchange of products on equitable
ured products of the United states the
most favorable chance in Canadian mar
kets, will the present administration
consider the question of reciprocity with
Canada. The obstacle in the way of
successful negotiations is the desire of
the Dominion government to do nothing
that will discriminate against Eng
lish interests. They would like to OBJ
tain free access to the great American
market without making any concessions
which might have the effect to reduce
English trade with the Dominion, but
in order that reciprocity shall be of any
value to this country we must be given
advantages over England. 1t is to be
apprehended that this obstacle will be
found to be insurmountable so long as
the government of the Dominion is in
the hands OF the conservative party.
A change in the commercial policy Of
Canada is undoubtedly becoming i'm
perative The country is not making
progress, but is rather retrograding.
! The efforts to increase population by
immigration have amounted to nothing,
for the reason that there Is n constant
drain from the native population of
people who come to the United States.
Deprived of the markets of this country
farming has become Improbable, and
with nothing but the home market man
ufacturiug does not prosper. Efforts to
extend the foreign trade have brought
no practical results. The situation is
growing harder and more distressing,
but still the government will consider
no remedy that involves any discrimina-
tion against English interests. No rad
ical change is TO be expected until the
liberal party is restored to power.
