and England have told the Sultan to give
up Crete to Greece forthwith. The thr'
remaining powers violently object to this
mode of settlement. The possibility that
the peace of all Europe may be upset by
the disagreement of the nations 10 far
from remote. The Sultan 10 not hkelv
to be coerced without q struggle. He has
grown especially arrogant and contempt
uous during the past few weeks, owing to
the success of his troops In the field.
That he would accede to any proposition
not pleasing to himself is not to he
thought. His attitude, however, will have
little effect upon the European crisis, for
whichever way Crete may go, one half of
Europe is bound to be enraged and call
for trouble.
The so-called concert has been about
lost sight of. Its ethics are neglected, il
not forgotten. When the nations are
evenly paired against themselves there Is
no hope of a pacific settlement unless the
object of dispute be removed. Perhaps,
ere long, America will be looking upon
really extensive war in the old country.

Blaine Opposed a Duty ON Hides.

The following letter from Secretary
Of State James G. Blaine in 1890 is
supposed to have had great weight with
the ways and means committee:
WASHINGTON, April 10. 1890.
DEAR Mr.. MCKINLEY-It Ia a great mistake
to take hides from the free list, where they
have been for 80 many years. II is n slap in
the face to the South Americans, with whom
we are trying to enlarge oIr trade. II will
benefit the farmer by adding 8 to 8 per cent TO
the price Of his children's shoes. II will yield
profit to the butcher only, the last man TINT
needs IL. The movement Is injudicious from
beginning to end, in every form and phase.
Pray stop IL before IL sees light Such move
ments as this for protection will protect the
Republican perty into u speedy retirement.
Yours hastily, JAMES G. BLAINE.
Hon. William Mckinley. Chairman Ways and
Means.
Where is the Blaine this year who
can head of the westerners who want
their share Of protection and foolishly
imagine that they can get it by duty
on hides? 1t is perfectly consistent with
the protection system to tax hides, es-
pecially as the bulk Of the tax would
probably go to few monopoly butch
ers and ranchmen. But observe some Of
the effects upon our industries:
The importations of untaxed hides
and skins last year were valued ut $20.-
216,52S. The goatskins were valued ut
$40, 1903, 1863. The former were mostly
converted into sole leather, beltipgs
and such like heavy material, for which
our native hides are not thick enough.
The goatskins are not produced in this
country.
From this raw material we not only
manufacture boots, shoes and leather
goods for our own people cheaper and
better than they are made elsewhere i'm
the world, but We exported finished
products cf the value Of $50, 242, 756.
Without free and cheap raw material
this export trade would have been i'm
possible, and our own people, as Mr..
Blaine pointed ont, would be compelled
TO pay more for their footwear. The
wages paid to our workers i'm leather
last year amounted 10 t25, ,542.166.

HOW ABOUT THIS !?

The story comes from an unknown
source that the militia of Rhode Island
and Massachusetts got into serious trouble
on The sound steamer coming home from
the New York celebration. 1t is averred
that the Rhode Islanders conducted them
selves in manner not becoming gentle
men and soldiers and that sundry fiourishes
of bayonets in the hands of the Massachu
.etts men were necessary in order to reduce
the Rhode Islanders to state of quietude
and order.
We prefer to suspend judgment until we
hear the evidence in the case. The Rhode
Island militia will probably have another
story TO tell about the fracas, If any such
thing occurred. We do not believe that
the soldiers of this State are inferior to
those OF Massachusetts, in courtesy, and
we will only alter our conviction when
valid proofs TO the contrary are produced.
Rhode Island takes good deal OF pride
in her militia. She does not want to see ii
disgraced and does not expect to. She ex-
poets every man to do his duty.

A GENERAL WAR.

There is strong possibility that gen.
erai war may be precipitated In Europe
within the next month. The affair be-
tween Greece and Turkey has developed a
spirit OF dissension and jealousy that may
result In open hostilities. The trouble
arises over the question OF autonomy for
Crete Each OF the several nations desires
to dictate the terms according to their
own plans. Selfshness and greed, OF
course, are at the bottom In every case.
England wishes to have the island placed
under British suzerainty, agreeing to hand
it over to Greece at the first opportunity.
Italy and Austria declare that the island
should be placed in the hands of a gov
.crnor of Italian or German descent.
Altogether there is first-class quarrel
on the tropics. The Austrian and Ger
man ambassadors at ConstaDtinople are
fierce in their denunciation Of France for
threatening to uphold Greece in her con-
duct. They even go farther and intimate
that France is merely the cats-paw that Is
being used to pull Russias chestnuts out
of the fire. The emperor OF Germany, on
the other hand, Is making a desperate
effort TO arrest the popular feeling in the
Greek capital against the royal family. 1t
is said that William and George had a con-
ference at Athens recently, which resulted
in the demand for Delyannis resignation.
This may or may not be true, but IL so 1t
shows that Germany Is after all half in
ciined to back up Greece in the war,
secretly or openly, so long as the conduct
of Greece Is agreeable to Germany. The
emperor is said to have cherished hard
feelings toward Delyannis for that off,
cial's decided stand against the interfer-
ence OF the Powers. IL is known that he
openly exhorted the Greek people TO take
no heed of the Powers, but to pursue the
war regardless of any advice they might
infiIct.
IL now comes to pass that France, Russia

TOURABOUT WN

1t is quite common to see children riding
wheels that are altogether too large for
them. This is a practice that should be
stopped. II the parents of children cannot
purchase suitable wheels for them, then
the youngsters should not be allowed to
ride.

With the advent of the season for the
running of open cars on street railway
lines, the discussion of the end-seat ques-
tion has broken out again. It seems to US
that the matter may be summed up thus !:
Passengers who do not have the place are
eager for it, while those who have secured
the seat do not want to give 1t up.

The opening OF the cycling season has
brought renewal of the controversy over
Sunday wheeling. Many clergymen ac-
count it sin, unless the bicycle trip ends
at church in time for the religious ser
vice. Whether sinful or harmless, the
prospect is that hundreds will take ad-
vantage of the doubt and indulge in Sun
day riding.
This has been a cold and backward
spring without any questson. The wal m
and summerish days can be counted en-
the fingers of one hand, and cold, bleak
winds have blown through April with
almost March-like vigor andlpersistency.
Outdoor sports have suffered by this state
OF affairs, especially about New England; !;
and it has again been proven that 1t is
scarcely worth while to depend on trying
to run outdoor games of any kind he re-
abouts till well into May.

too soon to be getting ready for its OBJ
servance. Although the dates of its OBJ
servance vary in the States of the Union,
Arbor day has become national holiday
and one of our important institutions. 1t
is now not only day for tree planting,
for economic and aesthetic purposes, but
one for securing much valuable knowledge
in regard to plant and tree life, and for
kindling in the minds of the young an in
