The strike which was declared Of last night
by the grand master Of the Switchmens Union
at Buffalo was doomed the moment it started.
Its origin was in violence and it did not require
its abandonment by the other unions to put
An end TO . movement thus begun which had
been conducted at every stage in violation of
right and law. The other railway unions were
Prudentiy indisposed to carry their sympathy
50 far as to Join in the strike. 1t is hopeful
sign when labor unions respect the public feel
ing TO this extent 1t will be still better when
they are able in every way to weigh the merits
and give moral encouragement to such strikers
only Is act conservstively within lawful limits.
with . due regard for the rights of their en-
ployers and the public. Many Of the Buffalo
strikers seemed far more intent upon revenge
than justice. The introduction of anarchistic
methods into labor disputes, deplorable as it is
on all accounts, is chiefly so on account Of the
trouble and sorrow it will bring TO the men
themselves and their families

The Halifax CN. 81 Chronicle seems to be
muddled to the facts about the British treaty
with the United States. the Canadian canal
tolls and the action Of this government. The
Chronicle glimpses the truth in its comments
where it admits pafpable violations by the
Canadian government. II. is only in the other
part Of its article, as telegraphed, that it is
faulty. The facts in this whole controversy
may be included in . brief statement, which
seems TO be necessary because Of the prejudice
and fl-founded comments of Canadian news
papers, which talk Of the breach of solemn
treaty engagements by this country. The ex-
pressed purpose Of the treaty Of Washington,
article %, IL "to secure TO the citizens Of the
United States the use Of the welland st. Law
renee and other canals in the dominion on
terms Of equality with the inhabitants Of the
dominion" In return the treaty assures to
Canada the use Of canals on this side the line
connected with the navigation of the lakes or
rivers trayersed by or contiguous to the
boundary" This ia all a. plain as a pikestaff.
But in the face Of these provisions the Cana
dian government grants a rebate Of IS cents a
ton from the established tolls of 20 cents a ton
on the Welland canal, between Lakes Erie and
Ontario. to grain-carrying vessels to Montreal
or Canadian ports east of Montreal for export
and allows no rebate to vessels taking similar
csrgoes to our ports on Lake Ontario and the
St Lawrence. This fat-footed discrimination
violates the terms Of the treaty Of Washington,
and no promise of the Canadian ministry to re-
move the rebate at the end of the season is
sufficient stonement for the act or entities that
ministry 10 any special immunity from the
consequences of their act. The proclamation
Of the President under our act of Congress is
very moderate indeed. for while the act author
lied him to impose tolls of 81 ton on freight
and IS passenger going through the $500
canal, as a matter Of fact he imposes no tolls
on passengers, limits the freight tolls to the
rate charged on the welland canal by the Cana
dian government and fixes the date at Septem-
Der l, so to give the dominion a chance to
adapt itself to circumstances. 1t is an easy
thing for Canada to recede and put herself in
the right in this matter.

A Rlue Law Sabbath.

II was born in Massachusetts" said
he. "and reared in strict Puritan fam
lily. The Sabbath commenced on Satur-
day night, when we children We're re-
quired to study the Scriptural lesson for
the next day. After an early breakfast
next morning we went at our lesson
again until church time. The morn
ing service was from 10 to l2 o'clock,
composed chiefly of long winded SER
mon, during which we were required to
keep awake. pay strict attention and be-
have ourselves. This was followed by
Sunday school, where we recited our
lessons correctly or suffered severe con-
sequences.
after a cold lunch at home. for moth
ing was cooked on Sunday. we attended
church again from , until p. III. The
interval between this time and o'clock
prayer meeting was occupied with re-
hgions reading or reflection, no frivolous
games or diversions being permitted on
this solemn day. As a special DISPENSE
ton we were given hot tea for supper.
Prayer meeting was out at 8 o'clock, and
from that hour until bed time we sat
quietly at home reading such thrilling
and interesting works, especially to chill
dren, as Baxters Saints Rest and
Foxs Book Of Martyrs. used to
sympathize with those martyrs, and
compare their miserable state with
mine. "-Washington Post.

A Too Entcrpristnv collector.

There used to be book collector In
this city who was the terror Of all who
knew him. He was well to do and a
very learned man. He was great buy
er of books and owned fine library. but
nobody else's library was safe if it con-
tanned a book he coveted. For long
time his victims did not suspect him.
He would call, spend an hour or two
among their books and go away. Final
ly one bibliomaniac, who had suffered
most severely, had his suspicious arous-
ed. Even then he dared not utter them,
so he went to his lawyer about it.
The lawyer had him make out list
of the volumes lost. They We're all of
extreme rarity and great value. Armed
with this list the lawyer called on the
suspected man and introduced himself
as collector from the west. He had

How Men Carry Their Hands.


"a sure indication of character is
found in the way in which Il man car
ries his hands," said G. &. Clarke, of
Boston. lyon notice men on the streets.
See the young man with swinging arms
and palms which are displayed to all
who take the trouble to look. He is one
of that class whose heart is as open as
his hands. He is frank, unsuspicious, IL
free spender and believer in the hon
esty of his fellows. Notice the business
man more advanced in years. His hands
are always closed SO tightly that he
gives you. the impression he is ever ex-
pecting an attack. This is the attitude
of men bent upon certain object. 1t
is an attitude which displays the quail
ties of determination and fight.
"In debate you will observe some of
our lawmakers emphasize a statement
by hammering the desk before them
with their knuckles, while others, ap-
parently equally imprisoned, are salts,
fed with the use of the palm. You may
rest assured that if sheer determination
will succeed, the man who applies his
knuckles will win before his colleague
who uses his palm."-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.
