hold that this meddling with import
ant diplomacy By angry and impas-
stoned utterances of this Kind is infin-
itely mischievous and foolish. While
so far as 1 am at present advised, there
win not be likely to be found a man on
the continent more in sympathy with
the great public objects of promoting
peace on earth and good will to men.
wish to enter my protest against this
! method of constantly meddling with
our diplomatic procedure by sermons
or professors lectures
In his great anxiety to preserve the
treaty making functions of the senate
intact, the senator became over-appre-
hensive. He was particular to point
out what embarrassment it might
cause the state department and the
senate, in case some modification of the
treaty should be deemed advisable, if
Lord Salisbury should cite the
"clamor' of the people of the United
States for the treaty as an argument
against any change whatever. Lord
Salisbury is just about as apt to do
such a thing as the world is to come
to an end in week.
The senate should give the treaty
full consideration; it is its duty to do
so, and the country expects nothing
less; but what the people ask, this
"clamor," as Senator Hoar calls it, is
that the treaty shall not be rejected
because of politics; this "clamor" is
nothing but the expression of doubt
of the senate. The people will not OBJ
ject to any proper changes or modih-
cations; it is the principle and not the
details they are anxious about.
Would Senator Hoar call this from
ex-senator Edmunds ''clamor:"
Il believe most earnestly in interna-
tional arbitration to the utmost extent
that civilized, just and self-respect-
ing nations can go, and 1 most earn
estly hope that the senate will ratify
the treaty as it is proposed as the first
step-very great and auspicious-to-
ward the attainment of peace among
nations?"

IMPORT SONG BIRDS.

The Portland Oregonian says that
the first lot of imported birds brought
to Oregon from Germany by the asso :
citation for the introduction of song
birds, arrived in 1889, and another lot
arrived in the spring of 1892. There
were a good many varieties, some of
which did not thrive and soon disap-
peareG. Among those which became
acclimated and have increased and
spread over the country may be men,
toned starlings, which nest yearly in
many places about the city, on high
buildings and church steeples; sc ng
thrushes, black thrushes. goldfinches,
linnets, greenfincheS and 5kylarks.
The latter have probably become more
numerous than any of the other kinds
and are found in large numbers III
meadows around Portland and for
some distance out in the country.
Such an association is a public hene-
factor in any state. Why cannot Utah
have one? Are there so few lovers Of
birds in our state that such an asspcia-
ton cannot be formed here. Many
years ago a gentleman. now deceased,
brought the English sparrow here, aid
all with the best and most public
spirited motives. When they were in
troduced they were popular everywhere
throughout the country; but they have
proven to be a great nuisance.
Two years ago a gentleman of this
city turned out a pair of skylarks just
outside the city. A year ago the same
gentleman turned out several ,)airs of
them, having sent to England for them
for that especial purpose. Whether
they have flourished we do not know
But if they flourish around Portland
there seems to be no good reason why
they should not flourish here, unless it
be that coming from a humid climate
they find the climate of the lower
Columbia adapted to them. Some
might be had from around Portland to
turn loose in our fields. We wonder
if any nightingales were turned bose
in Oregon. Their home IS not origin
ally Germany but the southern cGun-
tries of Europe, though Icey are found
in England but in no such Plumbers as
in Spain and Whereabouts. IN this land
of Utah, in this land of sunshine there
should be more song birds; and with
them would come dance and Proven
cal song and sunburnt mirthr'

be in most homes. for he is regarded
