The Washington lawyer who acts as
counsel for the French brazilian cable com
rany is in error when he alleges that this
company has not obtained from the brazilian
Government exclusive privileges that must
interfere with the establishment OF an Amcri-
can cable line between tn" United states and
Brazil. The company itself has formally an
nounred. in its printed reports. that it pos
scsses certain cNclusiv" privileges on Brazil
ian territory. and our State Department has
made representations to Brazil on the subject,
going So fat as TO press tho brazilian Govern
ernment TO reconsider its policy in reference
thereto.
1t is because Of tho granting OF these ox-
elusive privileges by rra2il that Secretary
BLAINE takes ground against til" adoption of
the Joint resolution before Congress authoriz-
ing the French company t. land its cable on
the territory of the United States.
The Secretary of State is justified in taking
this ground. W" cannot permit u foreign
company to enjoy privileges ON American ter
ritory like those which it has induced Brazil
to prevent us from enjoying on Brazilian ter
ritory. Tho policy Of reciprocity is the prorer
thing in case Of this kind.

only succeed by defeating the choice OF
New York. are ambushcd behind CLEvE-

Senator MCPHERSON does not want Gov

Jersey goes for CLEVELAND.
Meanwhile every politician and every
Democrat in the United States would
rather be on ticket with Governor HILL,

any other living man.
And Republicans fear no other nominal
ton except that Of Governor HILL.

''Qui Dine Donue."

The idea first originated in the fertile
brain of Alexandra Dumas mis-, and iS
likely to come into fashion. "For.n he
said, why should not those who are in
Vited to luxurious banquet, which they
get for nothing, pay trifle for such as
are without food and provide these poor
people with meal?'' And he proposes
that each guest shall pay the lady OF the
house the sam Of one franc, a suggestion
that will no doubt commend itself to
those who are not in position to recipro-
cate In the matter of hospitality, and who
are thereby relieved in part of the sense
OF obligation for a gratuitous feed. He
limits the amount to one franc in order 10
avoid an invidious comparison between
the parade OF generosity on the part of the
wealthy and the smaller contributions of
those less happily circumstanced. More
over, as the rafting of coin and the Civ
ing OF change at the dinner-table are or
iectionable features, he suggests the in
PRODUCTION of "bons," or notes of hand To
be obtained at various eenterS on nav
ment of the required sum. We have
seen a sample OF these notes. which he
styles ''bons de digestion" and which are
signed "Qui dine donne'' he VINO dimes
gives. This fashion, launched by Du-
mas on the charitable world, is worthy of
imitation.-Le Figaro.
