PERMANENT ARRITRATIoN.

Next month q national conference III
the interest of n permanent system of
arbitration between Great Britain and
the United States will be held in Wash
ington City and it will meet under pc
culiarly suspicious circumstances. a
movement of this kind in England has
met with encouragement from Lord Sal
isbury which was not generally eX-
Dectcd. In reply to a communication
from the chairman of a meeting re-
Gently held i'm London to promote the
cause of international arbitration, the
British premier wrote that he vas glad
receiving the consideration of her majes-
tvs government and that proposals in
the direction indicated We're before the
government of the United States. Later
1t was stated by the president of the
British Board of Trade that the govern
ment would be glad if a permanent
court of arbitration were established by
which difficulties arising between the
United States and British governments
might be settled without the possibility
of Il conflict between the two nations.
1t will thus be seer that the movement
for establishing a permanent system of
arbitration between this country and
England has assumed a form which
promises II practical result, for while the
formulation of a plan or system of ar
bitration may be attended with some
difficulties, they will not be found in
superable when the statesmen IL peo-
pie of the two countries are fully deter
mined to adopt arbitration for the settle
ment of international differences. The
fact is recognized by all who have given
the matter intelligent consideration that
an acceptable plan of arbitration, one
likely to last and to be effective, AN
be devised only by the deliberate eXer-
else of the highest wisdom. 1t is not a
matter to be determined by sentiment
or popular impulse. but II demanding
the best craftsmanship available. or
course no plan will be adopted without
having received the most thorough pub
lie consideration and discussion and
commended itself to the approval of the
enlightened popular Judgment of both
COUNTRIES. . .'..r
While there are some expressions of
miSgiving as to the success of any plan
of permanent international arbitration
that could be devised, the very general
feeling appears to be that it is practical
BILE to formulate Il system that would
be effective and bind the great English
| speaking nations in n compact which
would forever preclude any danger of
hostilities between them over any differ
| ences that might arise. At any rate the
movement looking to permanent interna-
tional arbitration merits the henrtiest
encouragement from all who believe
that the preservation of peace and the
maintenance of friendly relations be-
tween the English-speaking nations is
essential to their continued progress and
therefore most important to the cause
Of civilization throughout the world.

Originality In the West.

In the bosom of the unexhausted west the
old, feudal, romantic Technology is changed
into something more real and not less affect
ing. Nothing is more interesting in the
8 o'clock bell and early-to-bed revival now
observable than the fact that the word Cur
few in spite of it's respectable ancestry
is rejected. and fer it is substituted in the
west the vital and sibilant expression, kid
whistle" "Kid-whistle shall not sound to-

be done to make the income of the gov

Commentator and Greetings by the
Press of Denver.

Rocky Mountain News.
The Omaha delegation now In this city
in the interest Of the Transmississiprl OK
position TO be held in 1898. should meet
with encouragement. The gentlemen COM
posing the delegation are making a tour
Of the west in order TO awaken interest
in the project and to arrange the prelimin-
airy steps for an exhibit from this state
and the cooperation OF Denver and all
Colorado in the enterprise. At Salt Lake
City and elsewhere they have met with
cordial receptions, and the same is due
them at the hands of the people Of Denver.
From the start Of this exposition project
II has had the hearty approval of the News.
IL was discussed and endorsed at the last
session of the Transmississippi congress,
ana omaha has gone at II In a hearty and
business like manner. A local organization
has been formed, and upon the board Of
vice presidents will be representatives from
each OF the transmississippi states and trib-
utaties. A bill is pending In congress to
give 1t aid and recognition, and all that
is necessary to render 1t a magnificent sue
cess will be the cordial cooperation of all
the states in whose interest the exposition
Will be held.
Among all these states and territories
there is none that is the peer of Colorado
In variety OF resources or In industrial
wealth and development. This eminence,
INES" '"c t.hne CuHles. must De made clear
by an exhibit which 1t will be impossible to
surpass, and which will demonstrate her
claim as chief OF the Rocky mountain states.
The exposition is still two years away, but
II is not too soon to begin to lay plans for
Cclorado's part in rendering IL a success"
Denver Republican: We are glad the ger
tleinen from Omaha who are trying to work
up interest in the exposition proposed 10 be
held in that city. have made a visit to Colo
RADIO, and especially that they have com to
Denver. 1t has given them an opportunity
to see what a truly beautiful city Is, and
they will be able to tell their friends in
Omaha what a prosperous state looks like.
We arc sure there will be a readiness on the
part of Colorado people to help the EXPOSE
ton when the time comes to make exhibits,
provided the enterprise is on a sufficiently
large scale. OF course 1t could not be ex-
pected that Colorado would exert itself to
prepare an exhibit for a little county fair,
hut we understand that the intention is to
make an exposition representative of the
greater part Of the Transmississippi
region.

The Yurunn Incident Disposed OF.
plllnlnlnhin nanur

The "Yuruan incident" which led to all
the dispute about the Venezuelan boundary,
has been practically settled, through the good
Offices of the United States. Venezuela has
already paid 5000 or $500 personal damages
to the British constable, whose arrest on the
right bank of the Cuyuni river, in July, 1896.
started the trouble. and she will pay about
S., 900 more to satisfy the outraged dignity
Of the province of British Guiana, after
which the controversy will be- dropped. APP
parently, this leaves the victory with Great
Britain-for, though the British demand was
modified into one of personal damages
merely. ignoring the question of boundary,
it is evident that no claim for damages
would lie If there were no dispute about the
boundary-but, practically, 1t was the bold
assertion of the Monroe doctrine that brought
about this peaceful ending, and there Is no
probability that there will be any further
aggression by British settlers on Venezuelan
coil

PROTECTING AMERICAN SHIP OWNERS.
The Massachusetts republican plat
form favors protection for American
ship owners. For this purpose it de-
clares that the time has come to return
to the policy of Washington and Hamil-
ton. (which, by discriminating duties
in favor of American bottoms, secured
80 per cent of our carrying trade to
American ships. and which. if now
restored, would again revive our ship
ping and cause American freights to
be paid to Americans" A bill having
been introduced into congress looking
to the restoration of this policy, it will
be interesting to state its character.
When the government was organized
the merchant marine of the country was
very small and rs per cent of the eX-
ports and imports was carried in for
eign vessels. The second act of the
first congress approved by Washing
ton provided that on all teas imported
directly from China and India in Amer
lean vessels the duties should be from
q to II cents n pound; Oh all imported
indirectly under our flag from 8 to 16
cents; on all imported on any other
ships from 10 to 81 cents; on all other
goods brought from India in foreign
bottoms 1919 per cent, about double
the rate IL imported in our own vessels;
on all goods from other countries under
flag a rebate of 10 per cent was
allowed. This last provision, a few
years after, was amended by imposing
instead an additional duty of 10 per
cent on all importations in foreign ships.
The law also created a system of credits
for II importing merchants ON customs
dues exceeding $50. Another act i'm
posed a tax of g cents u ton on vessels
owned by Americans; on all American

ONLY ONE SENTIMENT,
And That Is for Change and now, SO
Says Judge r. L. Boyd, Recently Re-
turned From Washington.

Judge Boyd a prominent Chicka-
saw politician, of Tishomingo, was
in the city this morning enroute
home from Washington, where he
had been looking after the affairs of
that Nation. The Judge says that he
has discussed the Indian Territory
question with a great many promin-
ent members of both houses of con-
gress and he finds that only one
sentiment prevails among them and
that sentiment is to change the con-
dition of affairs here, and change it
now. He thinks that the present
congress will take action in the
matter at once and place the people
of this country under a Territorial
form of government.
The manner in which the Indian
politicians snubbed the Dawes Com
mission by attempting the passage
of bill making 1t treason to even
talk to the Commission on the sub
ject of a change, coupled with many
other ridiculous actions, has inclined
congress to turn a deaf ear to their
tale of woe.-Durant Eagle.

Beatty's Organs and Pianos.

Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, of Washing

and Piano manufacturer, is building
more Organs and Pianos than ever.
In 1870 Mr.. Beatty left home a pen
niless pillow boy, and by his indomit-
able will he has worked his way up
so as to sell SO far, nearly 200 Of
Beatty's Organs and Pianos since
1870. Nothing seems to dishearten
him; obstacles laid in his way, that
would have wrecked an ordinary man
forever, he turns to an advertisement
and comes out of it brighter than
ever. His instruments, as is well
known, are very popular and are to
be found in all parts of the world.
We are informed that during the
next ten years he intends to sell 200,
600 more of his make; that means a
business of s2O, 900 900, if we average
them at 500 each. 1t is already the
largest business of the kind in exist
ence. Write or call upon Daniel F.
