THE naval war between Japan and China
must be interesting in scientific way and af-
ford, wherever the facts can be learned, the
knowledge of experience about modern meth
DDS and ornaments which was vainly expect
ed from the Brazilian civil war. The use of
armor for war ship dates only from our civil
war, while high power guns and torpedoes
represent development even later. The
great naval battles prior to that were with
wooden ships. The Merrimac and Monitor
duel was inconclusive because of the eXces-
sive faultiness of construction i'm both. In
1866 there was fought off the island of LISA
an indecisive action between Austria and
Italy, and this was the first action in which
two iron-clad fleets were engaged that is re-
corded in history. The two fleets raining
upon each other an appalling fire. forced their
way through each others lines and then re-
tired before affordling much new light upon
the subject. In the war between Chill and
Peru and the Chilian civil war there were
some interesting conflicts, with ships that
contained the best of modern ornaments:
hut the conclusions from these conflicts were
rather against than i'm favor of ornaments.
Japan may be expected to prove superior on
the sea because of the more scientific hand
ling of which progressive and well-educaied
officers are capable.

THE recent riots in Quebec directed against
the Baptist missionaries and the Salvation
Army are revelations of the fanaticism of the
lower class Of French Canadians. A para
graph in Quebec paper in which the Saliva
tionists were ridicuied as mOuntebanks is
said to have been the direct Indictment of the
outbreak which was of course the work of
the dregs of the population. Quebec is the
capital Of Ultramontanism in North America,
and religious bigotry is intensified by race an
tipathie>, the French Canadians regarding
Professionalism as the alien faith associated
with the conquest of the land once all their
fathers. The political power in the city has
fallen into the hands of its worst elements. as
its abundant Encouragement testifies. and
the authorities were apathetic during the
progress of the violence. But there is good
and healthy denunciation from the Catholics
of refinement in the city, who constitute one
of the most admirable social presentations of
the old regime, and also from representative
French Canadian papers. Thus lie Monde of
Montreal declares that liberty of speech and
conscience must he respected, and that the
laws that protect them must be enforced.

THERE Is great rush among distillcrs to

cents gallon, before the new tax of 81 10 per
gallon becomes operative. The internal reve-

timated at above S23,0OO,OOO, and there are
about 60,000,0O0 gallons in bond or there were
a week ago. Not since the tariff bill or 1888
passed, have customs ware houses at the great
ports of entry, been SO crowded with foreign
goods awaiting the adjustment of tariff rates
and to be Withdrawn and pay the duties as
soon as the new law goes into effect. The

to keep up until general prosperity makes the

the need of sugar tax are groundless.

manded legislative investigation and called
for the punishment of the lynchers, and indors-

THE British House of Lords Tuesday night
ants Eviction bill and it means terrible suffer-
ing to $4,000 people who have been driven
from their homes and left to die by the road
side. II Is II matter of proof, ELECTED by i'm
partial inquiry, that in almost every instance
before eviction the tenants besought their
landlords to let the rents be fixed by arbitra-
ton and that they offered to pay what has
been judicially pronounced fair rent in view
of the signal fall in prices of Irish agriculture
al products. Even some of the DiSsident
Liberals headed by l.. II. Courtney and Sir
Henry James urged their friends in the house
of Lords to break with their Tory allies for
once and support the relief bill on the ground
that it was n just and beneticcIt measure.
That strong case in equity could be made
for the evicted was acknowledged even by the
Duke of Devonshire although he ultimately
opposed the bill because the reinstatement of
tenants was not left optional with the land
lords interested. But if such bills can be
passed for the relief of Irish tenants why not
similar bills in behalf of English, Scotch, and
welsh tenants! ms was the argument tlaU
the whole landlord interest against
the measure. Lord Roseberry appealed TO
his fellow peers to be cautious. "There is
much in the air. said he, (which ought to
make the house walk warily.' The bill was
a straining of general principles to meet en-
ceptional circumstances. 1t provided that
the present occupers of land con-
sent, cyicted tenants NAV resume their former
holdings at a rent to be judicaly determined
whether the landlord is willing or not. If
The present occupier is unwilling TO surrender
his holding, then Il sum of money is to be
loaned by the government to the evicted ten
mt to enable the latter to buy land elsewhere.
If, however, everything goes smoothly and
he eycted tenant enters upon his former
holding then the present occupier is to be
for disturbance and improve
nents, and the landlord is to receive certain
mount in compensation for arrears due by
he returning tenant. The money necessary
0 carry out the plan was to be taken from
he accumulated funds of the former Estab-
shed church of Ireland.

The Caledonia county Republicans are re.
ported to be planning to attempt to use paster
ballots. since the county clerk there has decd
ed, as Judge Tyler did here, that their ticket
cannot be printed on the official ballot, be-
cause filed too late. We do not believe paster
ballots are fairly allowable under the law
which says the names shall be inserted. Be-
sides their use would make big hole in the
purpose of the law, which is to render bribery
and intimidation impossible anyhow
there ought to be some way of determin-
ing in advance of election so that the same
rule may apply for Caledonia county Repub-
lcans and Windham county Democrats.
