4 mENAcE TO THE N. d. FARMER

n mENACE IO THE ~. Ds EAk6MGESS.
Communicated
There has been held in this country
but short time ago what was called a
reciprocity convention, for the pur-
pose Of securing commercial union
between the United States and the
Dominion of Canada. Looking at it
from the standpoint Of a farmer Of the
northwestern states Of the U. S., de-
sire to call the attention Of the farm
ers Of North Dakota to some facts in
connection Herewith. Here is one of
the resolutions adopted:
"That any reciprocity treaty be-
tween the United States and Canada
should provide for free.and open com
petition between the railway systems
of the two countries in order to reduce
the cost Of transportation from the in
terror to the seaboard to the lowest
figure consistent with the efficiency
and reasonable prosperity Of the roads. F"
Contrast the position Of Manitoba
and North Dakota, both raising the
same kinds of produce and competing
with each other in the markets of the
world. Manitoba has practically no
outlet to the ocean during the winter
months, consequently they suffer from
an over supply Of wheat. North Da-
kota has, it is true, not the best facil-
tiles, but still there is always a move
ment. Throw open to the Manitob-
ans our railroads and markets; aud
they become at once a powerful rival
with really better and more direct
transportation from Winnipeg to Min
neapolis. Where is the benefit to
North Dakota from commercial un-
ion of this sort?
In connection with this matter let
us look at some other facts. The
opinions of.the leading and most in
auential politicians Of Canada, as
CLEANED from their papers, would in
dicate that Canada is so satisfied with
her position as dependency Of the
British crown that, with the excep-
tion Of commercial union. she desires
no closer connection with ourrepublic.
Should we grant to Canada the privi-
leges we enjoy without anything in
return, simply to be neighborly, and
thus indirectly strengthen Great Brit
ain at our expense? If the United
States markets and railroads are so es-.
sential to the welfare Of the business
OF Canada, she should have the cour-
age to cut loose entirely from the
mother country. and ask for admission
to the Union as independent states,
and we viii checrfully grant her all
the inestimable benefits enjoyed by
citizens Of the great Republic. Until
then, the motto for North Dakota.
farmer should be & America for Ameri-.
cans with all that implies.

Tn its editorial Of Yesterday morning

In its editorial of yesterday morning
the Reveille is to be cOmplimented for
having dropped its spirit of bufioonery
and silly effort to make light OF the
county printing and taken up the
Argument at least with dignlfed bear
ing and with some show of respecting
the intelligence of its readers. We do
not reach the same conclusions as our
contem poraIy, but we have the right to
ask of a journal to como squarely at us
in a straightforward manner, and not
turn serious matter into a senseless
Joke. The Reveille asks why the HER
AID now seeks to be so eager after re-
form, when at one time it endorsed
certain propositions which, by imptica'
ton of the Reveille, were "off color"
First, because the present editor doesn't
know the motive prompting the policy
preceding his coming. Second, be-
cause he doesn't know the surrounding
circumstances influencing all parties,
as he believes he does, in this case.
Third, because two wrongs never make
one right Fourth, because he does
not even know whether those trans
actions were right or wrong. Fifth,
because if the implied argument of the
Reveille, that some other officials rob
bed the county treasury so may the
present officers, be a wise one; then let
honesty go, and every man try his
hand at the business of burdening the
taxpayers.

THE INTRODUCTION OF MENTHoL.
It Was Utterly Unknown In England Twen-
ty-five Years Ago.

II Was Utterly Unknown In England TWEEN
ty-ive Years Ago.
| The medicinal use of menthol in China
and Japan goes back into the dateless
ages. Isolated references to its applica
ton in the east are met with here and
there in the records of western travellers
in those parts, but we shall probably
never know the name of its discoverer or
the early history of its introduction.
We do not know with absolute GER
; tainty when and by whom menthoi crys-
tails were first brought to the notice of
European pharmacologists. 1t is said that
they were used pharmaceutically ON the
continent as long ago as the end of the
last century, but if that statement is cap
able of proof the drug must have fallen
into oblivion shortly after its introduce
ton, for it was certainly utterly I'M
known, even by repute, to most persons
in the drug trade 25 years ago. Some
where about 1864 consignment of the
drug was received in London under the
name of Chinese peppermint oil and
passingly commented upon for its curious
property of solidifying with fall in the
temperature.
To the late John Mackay of Edin burgh.
belongs the distinction of first having
called the attention of British pharma-
cists to the valuable properties of men
thol. Mr.. Mackay is believed TO have
brought "po-ho oil" with him from
Paris, where it was then sold in the
small, red labeled Chinese bottles famil-
lar to eastern travellers as kind of pro-
prietary article,
Had menthol been an utterly valueless
medicine it would perhaps have taken
Europe by storm then and reigned for a
season, just long enough to gather for
tune for its first exploiter. But as the
drug happened to have a solid thera-
peutic value it had to wrestle through
the familiar stages of contumely, ridi-
cule, animosity and unreasoning popu-
larity, just like any new creed or re-
former.
The commercial interest of menthol
practically dates from 1878, when an
English firm in Yokohama made small
shipment Of it to London, determined
not to rest until they had succeeded in
securing for the remedy footing upon
the market. After many months their
went back with a note from
the agents announcing that 1.-THE stuff"
could not be sold there, as no one knew
what to do with it. But the Yokohama
firm persevered, and they reaped their
reward. Four years later menthol crys-
tails were the rage of the season, selling
at 60 shillings per pound, wholesale, and
carried about in cone shape by all per-
sons with any pretense to the possession
of civilized nervous system.-Chemist
and Druggist.

There Is sometimes room for honest
differences of opinion concerning the
making Of improvements that must
needs destroy historic spots, but there
seems to be little chance for two views
regarding the project of those who would
deface the field Of Gettysburg by the con-
struction of a trolley railroad through
the grounds The preservation of Get
tysburg in the same condition as it was
when the awful struggle took place is as
important TO the defeated as to the vic
torious, and it is an encouraging sign of
the times that the proposed improvement
is generally regarded with indignation.

He was a weary faced travelling man

The Puzzle of society"

Talk about your puzzles-Chinese or
any other kind-the greatest, the most
complex, the most inexplicable puzzle is
"society"-the society that you contin-
ually hear about, that bubbles up, that
effervesces, that widens out its own lit
tie ripples every now and then into one
gigantic wave that washes up from the
depths a sediment that dims the luster
and sparkle and makes one wonder
where on earth real society is anyway.
Now, here is young man who came to
us with carefully prepared letters Of in
PRODUCTION socially. He did not consider
it necessary to push himself He was let
beautifully alone until accident proved
him desirable man to know.
Another man came here recently with
no letters-credit or social. He picked
up an acquaintance at a popular hotel.
he let drop casually that he was from
England and was looking up real estate
here in America. This acquaintance,
who had the entree to society, intro
duced him to his friends. They invited
him out. Others invited him in turn.
and he was drawn into society's vortex.
Now they hear from across the water
that the man, with his accent his only
recommend, is an imposter. Chicago In

During the recent visit to Fairhaven
Mr. Warren, comptroller Of the Great
Northern railroad, gave expression to
an opinion which was reiterated by the
distinguished gentlemen now in the
city, of whom Senator Pettigrew is one
Of the leading figures. The opinion
was that the numerous advantages
maintaining here for residence and
commercial purposes needed only to be
seen by the people Of the east to induce a
large number Of them TO select this sec
ton as future home. This opinion
has been held by the residents of this
Bay as one of the staple convictions
on which they have based their faith in
its future growth, and now that rail
road facilities are increasing and rates
west-bound are coming down, the day
seems near at hand when decided in
crease in the number our visitors will
be poted-and to visit this highly fav-
ored city, by general consent, is equiv
aIent to a strong desire to make it a
permanent home.

An old Jewish Cemetery.

The most interesting sight in Prague
Is the old Jewish cemetery. It is in the
center Of the city, surrounded by thick
walls. There are thousands Of ancient
moss covered slabs, some bearing in
scriptions of great antiquity, which only
Hebrew scholars can decipher. The GEM
etery Is unused, but no other Jewish
burial ground in Europe can compare
with IL for age or general interest to the

They are turning out some large
wooden sailing vessels in our home ship
yards this season. Some of them are
four-masters. But after all some of the
wooden ships Of olden times were larger
even than the steel steamships of the
present day. One of Ptolemy PhiIo-
pater's carried 1900 rowers, 400 sailors
and 5000 soldiers. But this even was
nothing to n ship constructed by Hero,
that old Syracuse tyrant. This is re-
ported to have had all the variety Of

had eight towers with walls and bull
warks and one machine of war which
threw a stone of 800 pounds half mile.
1t seems that there was no port in Sici-
ly capable Of containing this vessel in
safety, so Hero had to give it away.
Such vessels as this will compare very
favorably with the leviathans of the big
ocean steamship companies of the pres
emit day
Ii, however, larger ocean steamers yet
appear. as is reported, there will be
nothing to compare with them If we ac-

Methods For Secret Correspondence,


At trial in France it was shown that
the chemist Turpin, who is undergoing
FIVE years imprisonment for treason,
made arrangements with friend to carry
on secret correspondence. A letter from
the prisoner, giving the necessary direc-
tons TO his friend, was read in court. An
official inquiry was made and some in
teresting information supplied by the
convicts, from which it was shown that
when private news is to be supplied to a
prisoner formal letter, apparently con-
tanning nothing of Importance. is sent.
This, being read by the governor, would
be passed on to the prisoner, who, under
standing the missive, and that it was
only necessary to read between the lines
written in milk, he could make this per-
fectly decipherable by rubbing it over
with dirty finger or an old slipper. An
other ingenious form of secret correspond
ence consisted in leaving letters out Of
words, as if the writer were illiterate.
The omitted letters put together formed
the requisite words and sentences.-Lon-
don Public Opinion.

as United States senator. This sort OF hogs
policy is tiresome to many Democrats.
AS for Henry Drum, it is pretty reliably
stated that he does not desire the empty
honor of being named United States sem
ator by the Democrats. Some of his
friends favor passing round the compli-
ment, provided the balioting is not deci-
sive. Given half dozen ballots, it is pro-
posed to bestow the honor on Tom, Dick.
Harry and as many others as time and
hang-ire ballots will permit. And yet the
majority, expressing an opinion, lean
toward either focusing honors on Mr.. Wal
lace or Judge Sharpstein.
Some of the Dave Hill and Speaker
Crisp fellows have made up their minds
to leave Mr.. Cleveland and his friends to
their own method of destruction. Sour
grapes and disgust mix we'll in about
every instance with the Hili-Crisp con-
tingent. They avow the election by the
New York state legislature of Hills friend
and the hacker of Paddy Ryan, Ed MUIR
ply, of Troy, N. Y, and intimate that it
will be time enough for them to be con-
suited when Mr.. Hill is made president
four years hence. Cleveiand's ukase that
Hills pet, Murphy, should not be chosen
senator has caused no end of displeasure
and many harsh epithets among the Hill
nihilists.
