EXTENSIVE FOREIGN RELATIONS.
Hawaii, Mexico. Nicaragua and Other
Nations Touched Upon.

Since communicating the voluminous
correspondence in regard to Hawaii and
| the action taken by the senate and
house of representatives on certain
| questions submitted to the judgment
| and wider discretion of congress, the
organization of a government in place
| of the provisional arrangement which
followed the deposition of the queen has
been announced, with evidence of it's
| effective operation. The recognition u.s.
ual In such cases has been accorded the
new government
Under the present treatise Of extradi-
ton with Italy, miscarriages of justice
| have occurred, owing to the refusal
of that government to surrender it's
own subjects. Thus far our efforts to
negotiate an amended convention obvi-
ating this difficulty have been unavail-
| ing.
Apart from the war in which the ISL
and empire is engaged, Japan attracts
increasing attention in this country
by her evident desire to cultivate more
liberal intercourse with us and to seek
our kindly aid in furtherance of her
domestic affairs and full equality in
the family of nations. The Japanese
empire of today is no longer the Japan
of the past and our relations with this
progressive nation should be no less
broad and liberal than those with other
powers.
WITH MEXICO.
Good will, fostered by many interests
in common, has marked our relations
with our nearest southern neighbors.
Peace being restored along her north
ern frontier, Mexico has asked the pun
ishment of the late disturbers of her
tranquility. There ought to be a new
treaty of commerce and navigation
with that country to take the place of
the one which terminated thirteen
years ago. The friendliness Of the in
tercourse between the two countries
Is attested by the fact that during this
long period the commerce of each has
steadily increased under the rule of
mutual consideration, neither being
stimulated by conventional arrange
ments or retarded by jealous rivalries
or selfish distrust.
An indemnity rendered by Mexico as
gracious act for the murder in 1887
of Leon Baldwin, an American citizen,
by band of marauders in Durango,
has been accepted and is being paid in
installments.
The problem of the storage and use
of the waters OF the Rio Grande for
irrigation should be solved by appro-
pirate concurrent action of the two
Interested nations. Rising in the Col

IN Russia the cholera continues to spread
with increasing virulence, and there seems
much danger that it may complete its
progress as usual by visiting all the
European countries, and even menacing
our own. 1t is most to be dreaded among
communities where the condition of
sanitation is defective, and as Russia is
behind all the European countries in this
respect, it is not surprising that the East,
ern plague, in its recurrent Western prog
ress, always visits her with severity. The
disease has its root inuncleanly social and
communal and personal conditions, and
where these prevail its spread is always
most rapid, and fits actions upon the in.

HERE'S A NOTION.
A Seemingly Flawless Plan to Make Har,

"There IS lot of talk going around

Of getting up i'm the morning and pushing
dumbbells on swinging Indian clubs is all
well enough for energetic men, but it
doesn't suit me My physician advised
me TO reduce my weight by exercise, and
/ tried the Indian club business. Proba-
bly, it did me good, but it unhinged my
mind for the rest of the day, and it was
torture. / had to make so many swings
with the Indian clubs and so many punch

prospect Of this exercise disturbed my rest
at night, and the memory Of it intorfored

walked nearly three miles.
THAT was good exercise, and didn {
realize that was taking exercise. Now,
there are lots of men in this town who
need exercise, and who don't like to walk.
They do like the music of good brass

and hire a band for itY Do YOU catch the
ideai It's great, isn't it2 And it's new.
If 30 men would subscribe for such a club,
the dues wouldn't be heavy. Form the
procession up town, you know, and pick
up the different members of the club and
walk them down town every morning to
their places of business Liberty Bell,

ally meanwhile perhaps because they
have been doing business on an eleemo-
synary basis, caring only to record large
transactions with no regard to profits.
But most men are not satisfied to face the
unavoidable risks of business unless they
can make something, and fail to enjoy an
occasion which yields the maximum Of
hazard with the minimum Of gain. That
business done on such narrow margins
and at such prices as now prevail is extra
hazardous, and not extra profitable, every
man in business knows. 1t may also be
set down as a solid fact that the average
workingman does not prefer wages which
leave the narrowest possible margin be-
tween him and starvation If he used to
be saving a tenth of his earnings, and his
wages have been cut down a fifth, he does
not consider that to be prosperity, and all
the tariff reform editorials ever written
will not satisfy him that it is.

Business as seen through political
spectacles differs materially from the
business which is seen by the men who
earn wages and the men who have bills TO

by the tariff reform shop have the inter

to all things They also possess magnify

enough, they reduce other facts in size

THE plain people, whose sturdy common.

Interpretation of the votes cast by others,
see that the change of tariff is the one
cause which operates in all the Northern
states that have voted this year. Oregon
and Maine, Vermont, Rhode Island and
Connecticut have nothing directly to do
with Democratic crimes in New York or
New Jersey, and they differ widely from
each other in political, local and industrial
conditions But in one thing they are all
alike, for they have all felt the blighting
influence upon their industries by the
Democratic Change" In each of these
state, many thousand men have been out
of employment for the greater part Of the
lst year. In each of these states the
great body of workingmen have been
compelled to submit to a material reduc-
tion of their wages. Tue dissatisfaction
.o.these working people, who attribute
their losses to the Democratic change of
National policy, is the one obvious cause
of a revolution in their politics. Common
sense at once infers that the cause which
effects all the states alike is the cause
that has brought about unprecedented
Democratic loss in all the states.
