DANIEL ON THE TREATY.
The Virginia Senator Tells Why He OPP
poses Its Ratification.

I.ynchburg, Feb. 25.-United States
Senator John w. Daniel has written II
letter TO Mr.. Lawrence Il. Nichols, presi-
dent of the debating society connected
with the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation of this city, in which he briefly
outlines his position on the arbitration
treaty. The following are extracts from
the letter:
1.-The discussion of the Anglo American
treaty now pending in the United States
Senate has been in secret session, and |
am not able to send you the confidential
correspondence concerning it because it
has not been made public, and there are
no speeches which have been made except
i'll secret session. My own remarks OH the
subject i'll secret session, which, like those
OF others, have been referred to in the
press, have been misquoted and their
sense perverted. No one could Judge cor.
rectly Of my views by the press reports.
Il send you II copy of the pending trea-
ty. My chief objection was that it sub.
mitS TO arbitration all questions which
may hereafter arise between the United
States and Great Britain without the nc.
tlon of the Senate liz each case, or rather
in each class of cases, and that it disfran-
chlses the Sreat mass of citizens from
being arbitrators by requiring that they
shall he selected from the Judiciary. 1t
should be conformed To our institutions.
which are different from those of Great
Britain,and under no circumstances could
| vote for treaty which .abdicates the
functions of the body of which I am Il
member. and which turns the judiciary
into body of diplomats.
"Therc is Inherent difficulty in con.
structing II permanent board to consider
disputes which have never arisen. There
are some mates which no nation car
ever afford to submit 30 arbitration.
such matters, for instance, as those which
led to the war of independence and the
war of 1912. We should he sure before
signing IL treaty to see to it that clear and
distinct limitations were put to the class
of questions to be submittedn
The letter closes as follows: ''Not long
ago we were being urged TO intervene
against the burbarities of the Turks in
Armenia What do the good people who
wanted us to intervene Their think of the
picture presented now-Great Britain
firing on the Greeks and assisting the
Turks in their damnablc OPPRESSION
Seantor Daniels letter was written in
reply To II request from Mr.. Nicholas for
information i'll regard to the treaty. the
question of arbitration being before the
literary society for discussion.

BURRISTON ALL RIGHT.
Story of Nephi Clerk and Nevada
Woman.

White Pine, New, News: About
three weeks ago a cattleman, Paris
ton, of Neqhi, Utah, among other pur-
chases made about that time
bought a bunch of cattle of Mrs.
Ellen Corners, who lives at the sum
NIT. about 80 miles east OF Ely, and
gave in payment a check for some
thing over $780, which was accepted
by Mrs. Corners. The check was
prompcly forwarded to the bank. but
was returned in a few days, no funds
being at that time in bank to meet it.
Indications seemed TO suggest an at
tempt on the part of Burriston to de-
fraud the old lady out of the amount
named in the check. This. however,
seems TO have been entirely without
foundation, for later developments show
that Burriston, before leaving Nephi.

officials to cover such an emergency
as an overdraWn cheek. But when the
Connors' check was protested the Of

the clerk, knowing nothing of the
agreement, returned the check Union
