VIII He Neep His Oath :

8EHeNEMH9e AAO Wy 80 oSS
The announcement that President
Cleveland IL opposed to a continuance
OF the tariff Determinations which
are now made against the imports
from Venezuela. Hayti and United
States OF Colombia, and will revoke
the proclamation imposing them,
issued by President Harrison, is not
surprising. 1t Is part OF Mr.. Clcve-
lands free-trade theory that reci-
procity Is "a sham," and he Is bent on
breaking Ii down. The discriminate
Ing duties against the three nations
In question were imposed because
they not only refused to enter into
any reciprocal trade arrangements
with us, but virtually barred us out
Of their markets by levying unjust
duties upon U products 10 the in
teFests Of British and German Inn
porters. When President Harrison
became convinced OF this he had but
one course open to him under the
Mckinley law, and the proclamation
referred to was the result. The pro-
vision Is explicit, as the following
I from section 3 indicates:
$50 often as the President shall be
satisfied that the government OF any
country producing and exporting
sugars, molasses, coffee, tea, and
hides, raw and uncured, or any sucis
articles, imposes duties or other ex-
actions upon the agricultural or other
products OF the United States, which,
in view OF the free introduction OF
such sugar, molasses, coffee, tea, and
hides into the United States, he may
deem to be reciprocally unequal and
unreasonable, he shall have the power
and 1t shall be his duty to suspend,
by proclamation to that effect, the
provisions Of this act relating to the
free introduction OF such sugar, etc.
The course of the three countries
from any reasonable and impartial
standpoint justified and still justif1et
retaliation. II President Cleveland
were to do his plain duty under the
law, as he has worn to do, he would
not for q moment consider the revo
catiol Of this proclamation. Oul
treaty obligations to Brazil, thu
Spanish and English West Indies
and Central America demand thai
1t DO maintained II 1t is not, thu
President strikes q heavy blow at tn,
stability OF reciprocity and goes ,
long way toward the overthrow o
the whole policy OF reciprocal tad,
which has been justly designated a
the greatest piece of craftsmanship
In our generation. Cleveland Leader

THE NEW CITY HALL.

Cincinnati is properly proud of her
new city hall, which cost her nearly $2,
100000 or so and is a beauty indeed.
The materials are brown Iron mountain
granite anG Amherst CO., buff stone.
which is said to resist fire better than
any other stone in America. The trim
mings, including window and door set
tings, cornices, lodges, etc, are of red
sandstone from the Ashland (Wis.) quar-
ries, and the vestibules are lined with Yer
mont marble. Both floor and roof will
be tiled, the latter with the soft tinted
red ware from the world renowned lnilns
of Akron.

WILLIAM r. SMITH. the Scotch poet
began when he was lad OF 10 In Athel-
stoneford, Haddingtonshire, Scotland,
when with the first shillings he ever
earned-won as prize at school for re-
citing Grays "Elegy' without faw-he
purchased copy of Burns poems. His
appreciation of the bard's Scottish dec
laration of independence, "a mans
man for a. that" brought him TO the
United States and caused him to become
thoroughly ingrained American.
Since then, by patient rummaging of old
book stores, by purchase, correspond
ence and exchange, Captain Smith has
gradually assembled his wonderful col
lection. AS his first shillings were
spent for copy Of Burns, he says, so
will his last half dollar be.
In captain Smiths collection the Amer
lean and British editions of Burns are
grouped separately. Among the $50 diff
ferent editions is a beautiful facsimile
of the first edition published, that Of
1886, printed at Kilmarnock, 8vo. Then
there is a well preserved copy of the first
Edinburgh edition, 1887, printed for the
author and sold by William Creech,
with Beugo's famous engraving of Mas
myths portrait, 8vo., and an equally well
preserved copy of the second Edinburgh,
evo., with portrait and typographical
error which escaped the eagle eye OF
Burns and has been repeated in many
editions, down to some of the very late
est, notably in Alexander Smiths Globe
edition. In addition to these he has cop
les of all the early British and American
editions, making $50 volumes in all.
The superb and almost priceless col
lection is the labor of Mr.. Smiths life,
and in size and quality it is inferior only
to the famous Burnsiana at Glasgow.
Besides old books there are in the collec-
ton valuable Burns manuscripts, prints,
short songs, portraits, autographs, GU
rios, relics and mementOs gathered by
years of fervent enthusiasm.
The place where these literary treasures
are kept is the tl-story lodge which Cap
tain Smith occupies in the Botanic gar
dens. In this lowly dwelling Captain
Smith has resided through the varied
mutations of politics at the capital for a
longer period than any other official
there, save in the case of the venerable
Captain Bassett of the senate. There,
with his dogs and his books, Captain
Smith finds the most congenial compan-
ionship for his declining years.

rLouRlsHINa SAND POINT.
New Industries starting up--Notes
and Happenings of the town.

Sand Point last Tuesday and found
the energetic citizens of the Lake
town in good spirits and looking
forward to prosperous times.
Sand Point has fortunate loca-
ton. 1t has the advantage of two
transcontinental railway lines, and
also water communication with
points on that large expanse of
water known as Pend d Oreille
Lake together with about thirty
miles Of its outlet, the Pend d.
Oreille river.
Sand Point is in the. center of
rich mining country, tributary to
it being the Chloride, Granite,
Blacktail and Priest lake camps,
all of which are in the development
stage, but prospect very rich
Some properties have been develop
ed to an extent that foretell their
richness. Some day a great smelt-
err will be erected on the shores of
Pend d. Oreille, and no point is
better adapted for the same than
Sand Point, owing to its central
location and railway facilities.
Another inexhaustable resource
is the lumber. Already lumber
men have been brought to realize
this fact, as one mill is now ready
for operation and another plant
will be put in atonce. The former
is the saw mill and box and barrel
factory of the Cannon & Gray Co.
This company has been organized
with William Stainsley as mana
ger. They expect to put 30 or 4C
men to work as soon as the season
opens, turning out lumber, boxes
and barrels.
b. f. Fowle & Co. have contrac-
ted to put in a single mill with q
capacity of 100000 per day. They
will employ 40 or 50 men. The
mill will be located on the lakeside
short distance west of the Cannon
& Gray Cos mill.
The citizens of Sand Point are {
plucky, energetic, enterprising sorr
of people, fully saturated with
western ideas and customs, making
them very congenial people t
meet. Among those in business
we note the following:
Ignatz We'll, general merchant
who does large jobbing and re
tail trade.
J. L. Pritchard, postmaster, ant
proprietor of store carrying con
dictionary, tobaccos, cigars, drugs

causes of its rapid growth, but much is
also due to the high character and eff
cheney of its officers.
None of these has made better record
than its present secretary, John Willis
Baer. To his shrewd business manage
ment is largely due that the United soci-
ETY. has been able to pay its way by the
sale of supplies, with but little demand
upon individual members. Mr.. Baer
was born in Rochester, Mimi, March 2,
1861, and is therefore but 80 years old.
He was partially reared in Cleveland,
but at IS went back to his native state
and was for some years in the business
office of an elevator company, after
which he did newspaper work for two
years in Cedar Rapids, Ia
He was among the first in the Chris
tan Endeavor movement, was president
of the Rochester local union and served
also on the state board of officers. In
the spring of 1890 he was called to sue
coed Mr.. George M. Ward as general sec
rotary and has been constantly busy in
that capacity ever since, excepting a
short trip abroad for a necessary rest.
He has spoken in almost every important
city in the country. always speaks with
out notes and is quick at repartee, keen
at illustration and full of an earnestness
that carries conviction.
