EASY VICTORY.

Mss. BEeekFOn Explains How Adam Hap
pened To Be Here First,
Mr.. Meekton's wife had been making
a few remarks to which her husband
listened with a patience which showed
that his disposition is diplomatic rath
or than beIlicose. The theme of her
discourse was the inferiority of men
aud their usurpatiou of power, topic
on which she can be depended to wax
eloquent, even if she has to say the
same things over several times.

Benjamin Harrison has solved the
problem as to what We shall do with
our ex-presidents. The latest ez-presi-
dent took unto himself Mrs. Dimmock,
a widow, for wife, just trifle over
ten months ago, and at $50 O'Clock
Sunday morning baby girl came. It
weighed just 81 pounds.
Mr.. aud Mrs Harrison were marrlad
in st. Thomas church, New York, april
6, 1896. No marriage in recent years
has attracted more widespread CON-
ment. The relatives of the ex-president
objected, but Mr.. Harrison was not to
be sweFved from his purpose. "Mr. Har
rison is in his 63rd year" said the rela
tives at that time. "My health is per
feet, and I have many years before me,
replied the ex-president, AIRS. Dim
mock is g woman of strong common
sense. She knows enough TO keep quiet
when man wants to read"
And with this famous declsFation
which travelled the world over, the ex
president and bis distant relative, Mrs
Dimmook, wers married. Shortly after
their marriage they vent TO Indian
apoiis to live, and have since made
that city their home.

THE ARBITRATION TREATY A TRAP

THE ARBITRATION TREATY A TRAP.
The people, as rule, aud many
statesmen and newspapers, have looked
upon the arbitration treaty consumated
by the outgoing administration as q
trap in which the United States has
everything to lose and nothing to gain.
In the senate last Thursday, while in
executive session, Senator Daniel of
Virginia, made a long speech against
the document. He was opposed to it
on several grounds. He declared that
under it the United States bound stself
with shaekles. 81 love the blood Of the
revolution" be said. "War is often a
good thing. Revolution is often pro-
gress. The senate has never declared
war unjustifable. For 20 years this
country has made a record Of peace.
The United States has never acquired
territory by war, except in war of
self-defense. On the other hand the
whole method and scheme of England
has been acquisition. Ever grasping
aud greedy, always reaching out for
more territory, the only nation she
feared, the only nation with strength to
cope with her was the United States"
It was the purpose of this treaty, Mr..
Daniel went on, to bind the United
States to peace. With the shackles on
this country, England could continue
her spOliations Of weaker nations and
when she interfered with what was con-
sidered the rights Of the United States
or countries under American protec-
tion, arbitration would step in with a
hostile tribunal against this nation. He
was opposed to giving away the rights
Of the senate as a part of the treaty
making power. To submit many ques-
tions to arbitration would be impolitic.
The nation had always had good presi-
dents, but some time there might be
bad one. Then the country would
suffer. He also opposed selecting
judges of the supreme court as mem
bers of the tribunal. He objected to
mixing the judiciary with foreign com
plications, besides some Of the ques-
tons submitted might come before the
courts. He also insisted that United
States members of the tribunal should
be confirmed by the senate.
1t is hoped aud should be hoped that
the treaty will fail of approval by the
senate. England is less honest in her
dealings than the United States, and
treaty or no treaty, if she could profit
by war with the United States she
would not hesitate at such action,
