The President of the Argentine.

The constitution of the Argentine Re-
public is in its principal features identi-
cal with that of the United States. Never
theless there are some differences worthy
of note. The president is elected in pre-
cisely the same manner as in the United
States, but cannot be reelected, and his
term of Office is six years. He has
more power than the president of the
United States, as far as making appoint
ments is concerned, since he only asks
the advice and consent of the senate to
appoint diplomatic ministers, judges
and officers of the army and navy above
the rank of colonel.
He fills all other offices at his own dis
erection, but all his DEGREES, proclama-
ton, etc., must be countersigned by
cabinet minister or else are valueless.
Thus the constitution makes the cabinet
ministers responsible for all the acts of
the president.
The members of the cabinet can an
swer questions and take part in the de-
bates of the house and the senate, al
though they are not members of either
body, nor does an adverse vote on any
measure of the government carry with
it change in the cabinet, as is the case
in France and England and is becoming
the custom in Chilli
The powers of the Argentine congress
are similar to those vested in the con-
gress of the United States, though some
what greater. The congress has the
power to legislate for all the provinces,
debating codes to be applied in all of
them, thus securing uniformity of legis-
lation. The provinces reserve the right
to elect their own judges, as well as the
other officials that their local constitu-
ton demands. All federal and provin-
cial judges are appointed for life, and
cannot be removed unless they are inn
peached and condemned.-NewE England

GAVE A GRAND PoTLATcH.
The Singular Method a Siwash Indian
Took of Spending 1,4OO.

The Singular Method a Siwash Indian
Took of Spending $1,000.
Speaking with prominent Gamer
few days ago a representative of the
Westminster (B. o. Columbian in
quired how the Indians were faring this
year in the salmon fishing and whether
they would be rich enough to indulge in
the potlatch. They won't have much
money to throw away in that direc-
ton this season." replied the Gamer.
Last year great many Siwashes made
good wages, and potlatches were all the
rage for some time afterward They
are curious people, and it is astonish-
ing the delight they take in appearing
liberal and wealthy in the eyes of their
friends. Last year | had an Indian
working for me who earned 81 400. He
drew the whole of this in lump sum
and laid it out in eight muskets, a dozen
boxes of crackers and the balance
about $1,200-in blankets Then the
noble red man called all the Indians
within reach together and announced
his intention of giving grand potlatch.
"The blankets were spread out in
2-acre field, with the crackers on the
outside for his friends to lunch on and
the muskets in the center. When the
appointed time arrived to begin the
ceremonies the Indian waded through
the sea of blankets to where the mus
kets lay. Here he climbed on box and
began a long GRAFTON which lasted over
an hour, at the end of which time he
picked up the blankets one by one and
smashed them over the box, signifying
that all enmity between the tribes
present was forever ended and rifles
would no longer be needed. Then he
gave the signal that the potlatch had
commenced, land the Indian women sailed
in and packed away not only one pair of
blankets, but as many as they could
carry, and in few minutes there was
not even a single blanket left for the
use of the generous contributor. This
grand give away of course made the
Siwash very popular, and a few days
after he was made subchief of his tribe
A few weeks later this same Indian came
to me dead broke and got sack of -four
on credit"
SIS the potlatch common among the
ordinary run of Indians?' asked the
newspaper man.
Gas rule the head men of the tribe
do this sort of thing" replied the salmon
packer, "but once in while an ambi-
tious young Siwash tries to make a name
for himself. Last fall young fellow
who had made little money fishing for
me came into the Office and got $3.50 in
silver. With this he climbed on the top
of shack, and after addressing the
multitude for an hour and half scat
tered every cent of the money among
the people below. This young Indian is
looked upon as coming man, and by
the time he has squandered the earnings
of half dozen seasons fishing he will
be made chief. But fish are few and
there won't be many potlatches this
year." concluded the cannery man.

The Flowerless City.

The pet name of Chicago is the
Garden City, or at least it once was
and the legend on its coat of arms is
"Urbs in Horto." 1t therefore seems
strange to read of monthly or weekly
flower show in cities like Boston, when
an annual flower show is all we can
boast of. If we except the public parks,
there are fewer flowers in Chicago than
IN any great city in the world. The
late James Wick stated that he sold
more Towering plants, shrubs, and
flower seeds in Rockford than in
Chicago. There are few private green
houses or Conservatives in the city, and
the flower trade here is very small, and
is chiefly confined to the demands OF
funerals and weddings.-Chicago Jour
nal

A resident of Belfast, Me-, went into a
grocery store a short time ago, ordered

The wheat crop of the Pacific coast in 1891
was over 100000 tons and eighty per cent
of the wheat was exported by sailing vessels
and large proportion of it passed around
the Horn. The Nicaragua Canal by short
ening the route to Atlantic ports would not
only save the producer cost of freight but
the revenue of the canal at 50 per ton toll
would be nearly SO, 000, 900 on wheat alone.
1t is shown that there are 00,0O0, 900 thous-
and feet of merchantable timber in Wash
ingtOn and Oregon to the value of which
over So per thousand feet would be added
by cheap water transportation via the Mic
aragua Canal. The gross addition to the
value would amount to the enormous sum
of $1,000, 100000 even at the low estimate of
50 additional. The fruit industry of Cali
fornia would quadruple in two years from
the opening of the canal for BUSINESS and
fast refrigerator steamers would deliver
fruit from California to New York in ten
days, TO Liverpool in fourteen days, and to
New Orleans in eight days. The mountains
OF the Pacific coast are rich in lead, copper,
silver and gold, while the plateaux and val
leys afford cereal belt with soil more
durable, and more favorable seasons for
seeding and harvesting than any part of
the world, and the committee think the
completion of the Nicaragua Canal is only
needed TO develop that country TO produc-
ton OF gigantic proportions and double the
population of the Pacific Coast in a few
years Inc COTTON growing sections of the
gulf states have undergone depression,
and the committee believes that nothing
could be OF greater immediate advantage
than the canal in relieving that depression,
and making market for American cotton
In Japan, China and COrea, where already
the people are beginning to manufacture
cotton goods by machinery. Japan import
ed over 100000 pounds of American cotton
IN 1881, most of which was shipped from
New Orleans to New York and then by rail
to Vancouver and steamship TO Japan.
At present the coal trade of South Amer
lea and the Pacific coast is monopolized by
the English. The committee think that If
the Nicaragua Canal were opened the Ala
bama and West Virginia coal would have a
decided advantage over English competitors,
not to mention the enormous amount of coal
the canal company itself would use. At the
entrance Of the SueZ canal last year 800.
900 tons Of coal were sold. In competition
with England for Pacific Ocean trade the
Nicaragua Canal would give American com
merce an advantage of 2, 700 miles, while be
