The -ri, for ra,,of rnr,n.

"A dispatuh from Quebec, Canada,
announces the arrival in that city of
Daniel II. Mcmillan Of Buffalo, N. Y,
who won't there for a talk with the
American members of the joint arbi-
tration commission. Mr.. McMillan's
special object was to urge that the duty
on Canadian barley be lowered or re-
moved altogether. He says that the
best grade Of barley cannot be grown
anywhere in the United States, and the
best interests of the United States
masters and farmers also will be served
by allowing the Canadian barley to
come in free. The Quinta Bay barley
of Canada is so much superior to any
of the United States barley that by
mixing it with tho home product a
good quality for malt is produced and
a better price is obtained for the
American barley.
The duty on Canadian barley is now
thirty cents per bushel, which really
amounts to prohibitive duty. Mr..
Mcmillan says that the New York
State farmers and the farmers of the
West will make no objection to having
the duty removed altogether. Speak
ing for his own city, Mr.. Mcmillan
said that he thought Buffalo would be
benefited by more liberal trade rela-
tions with Canada. "Bcing situated
on the very border" he said, 1--WE
have trading field only on one side
so long as the high duties prevent us
trading with the Canadians. think
both Buffalo and Toronto would be
greatly benefited by commercial re-
ciprocity."
On the other hand, it is announced
that w. l. Elliott Of Toronto is also in
Quebec. as a special representative of
the Canadian bicycle manufacturers
He wants the duty on American wheels
increased from 30 per cent to 40 per
cent. The American duty on Can
adian wheels is now 40 per cent. Mr..
Elliott says that most of the material
used in the construction of the Can
adian bicycles is bought in the United
States, and this, he thinks, should
continue to come in free. Even with
40 per cent duty, he says, very many
American wheels would be sold in
Canada.
Here is a curious mixup in tariff
conditions. An American business
man urges free trade with respect to
one product, while Canadian is seek
ing protective, almost a prohibitory,
tariff for another. Many Americans
will hold up their hands in horror at
the idea of one of their countrymen
even suggesting free trade in anything
with Canada, while they will indig-
nantly denounce the Canadian emissary
for impudent presumption in daring
to ask for prohibitory tariff against
a leading article of American manu-
facture. A protective tariff, in their
selfish view, is tax that should be
imposed only by the United States.
These "tit for tat" movements before
the commission should serve as useful
object lessons, and the result should
be mutual concessions that will no
doubt largely increase the reciprocal
trade of Canada and the United States.

LONG LOST BADG Es FoosD.
Singular Coed Fortune of Two Veterans
of the Late civil War.

William f. Robinson on Monday
night attended the mi-annual meet
ing of the Survivors Association of the
Twenty-sixth Pennsylvania Regiment,
which was held in Philadelphia. Mr..
Robinson is major of the association.
A most enjoyable evening was passed.
During the meeting a remarkable CO.
incidence was brought to the attention
OF the members. Samuel Latch of
Paschalville, Pa, who was member
of Co. X, of which Mr.. Robinson was
captain, reported that he had Just re-
ceived from a lady living where the
second battle of Bull Run was fought
q badge bearing his name which he
had lost during the engagement. 1t
was plowed up few weeks ago by the
lady's son, who returned it to its
owner.
Another member, James Kenney, who
had belonged to Co. II, stated that a
man living at Salisbury, N. c., had
recently found badge, with his name
inscribed thereon, % miles from the
town, and expressing a desire to return
1t to its owner upon proof of owner
ship being furnished. At Mr.. Ken
ney's request, the association author
lied the proper officers to give Mr..
kenney certificate setting forth that
he is the owner of the badge.
Mr.. Kenney was prisoner at Sails
bury in 1868 and lost the badge at that
time.

How TO pefea. Aaales.l.,n.

In Sussex county the Regular Repub-
lican organization has been practically
swallowed by the Addicks Republicans
and harmony legislative ticket agreed
upon which gives about everything in
sight that is worth having to the Ad-
dicksites. Addicksism, therefore, the
Delaware Democrat of Georgetown con-
tends, is still,a it has been for several
years, the bone of contention between
the Republican factions. Remember
ing the manner in which Addicks has
served them, it says, "the Regulars
cannot forgive him the injury he has
done them and would again do them if
he and his friends should by any acct
dent get into power 1t would, there
fore, be wise on their part to do all in
thor power to prevent such consum-
nation. even if they should thereby
cause Democratic success. The latter
would keep the Addicksites from con
trolling not only the county, but the
whole party, and as the gas king is
here only for political preferment and
would not stay except for hopes of it,
his defeat would soon rid the party of
the incubus and give the rest of them
a chance to get together once more. -
And the Democrat adds:
There is, therefore, from Regular
Republican point of view, good reason
for defeating the Addicks ticket, and
thus eliminating Addicksism and its
corruptions from our State politics. Ii
the Regulars would ever succeed it
must be by the overthrow of this
political adventurer and u reorganiza-
ton of the Republican party upon a
new basis. This truth has already
dawned upon the minds of many Regu-
lars and in Kent county we see it re-
sulting in an offer upon their part to
fraternize with the Democrats for the
sake of defeating the Addicks ticket in
that county. Whilst the Democrats
are divided in opinion as TO the wisdom
OF their adopting any part of the Regu-
lar ticket, as thereby our own party
may become disorganized, it is adj
mitted on all sides that the adoption of
a portion of the Democratic ticket by
the Regulars cannot help but benefit
the latter by defeating the Unionists
and placing the Regulars in charge of
the party organization.
Let the Regular Republicans who
want to defeat Addicks, vote against
his candidates for the Legislature.
They will thus strike blow at the
right place and in the right manner.
The way to defeat Adldicks is to defeat
his legislative nominees, and in this

Massachusetts, Democrats, in their
State convention, on Tuesday, inserted
this financial plank in their platform;
The Democratic party, with a con-
yiction and pcrsistency which have
now been confirmed by the observation
and experience of two additional years
Of disaster, again demands the return
10 bimetallism by restoring silver and
gold to coinage at the ratio which was
maintained during so many prosperous
years in the history OF our country
the ratio of 16 to l.
The persistency' of the Massachu-
sets Democrats is simply in the direc-
tion of inviting overwhelming defeat.
They evidently desire to emerge from
the next election as they did from the
one two years ago, in hopeless mi
nority. And this, too, in State that
the Democrats have carried at least
half dozen times in the past fifteen
years.

1t was a graceful act on the part of
the Young Mems Republican Club TO
send large delegation to turn out
with the Bayard Legion and the Young
Mems Democratic Club at the funeral
of Hon. Thomas f. Bayard, Saturday
afternoon. Mr.. Bayard was an honored
citizen Of Delaware, always interested
in the material welfare of his native
State and city, and it was well to thus
publicly demonstrate that whatever
political animosities may have been
engendered by his public career were
entirely ignored in the common feeling
ofsorrow at his death.

AZ INDIAN RELIC.
a Granite Pest,s rlourhsd Up IN Chris.
tisns Hundred Few DAYS Aga.

tfuhh Hundred u Few DAYS Ago.
Joseph Wigglesworth, secretary Of
the Board of Health, who for several
years has been interested in collecting
Indian relics from all parts of the
country, has just had presented to him
by friend a granite pestle of unusual
size, which was plowed up on farm
in Christiana hundred few days ago.
II is probably foot and half in
length and three inches in diameter at
tho thickest point. 1t shows signs Of
having been used great deal, but has
probably been buried in the ground
for 200 or 800 years. 1t was evidently
made and used by Indians who lived
in Christiana hundred many years ago.
Mr.. Wigglesworth has fine collec-
ton at his office ut Sixth and fling
streets. Some of the articles he found
himself in this part of the country and
in the West and some were presented
to him.

Some newspaper discussion is being
INDUCED in with respect to instance
analogous to the election, by the same
Legislature and on the same day. of
James A. Bayard and his son. Thomas
+. Bayard, as Senators of the United
States from the State of Delaware.
The case of Henry G. Dodge and Au-
gustus @. Dodge, father and son. is
cited by the Chicago Times Herald.
but it cannot be considered as anal
ogous. Henry Dodge, the father. was
one OF the first Senators from Wiscon-
sin and served from June sd, 1913, to
March Sd, 1857. Augustus Caesar
Dodge, the son, was one of the first
Senators from Iowa, serving from De-
cenber 18th, 1918, TO February 9Th.
1853, when he resigned to accept the
appointment of minister to Spain.
Father and son here served in the
Senate together, but this does not
make the case parallel with the
Delaware incident. James A. Bayard
and Thomas #. Bayard werc elected by
the same Legislature and on the same
day, the former to fill an unexpired
term ending on the fourth day of March
next ensuing, and the latter for the
full term Of six years beginning on that
date. The father, therefore, left the
Senate on the noon Of March 4th, and
was succeeded by his son. Taken in
its entirety, the Bayard senatorial in
cident is without a parallel, the case
OF Simon Cameron and his son Donald,
Senators from Pennsylvania, probably
coming the nearest to proving q coun-
terpsrt. III

Death Of Hon. Thomas II. Bayaru.
Know ye not that there is prince

Israeli"
So spalSe David, King of Israel, in
announcing the death of his fayorite
minister, Abner. And Thursday the force
of his words was impressed upon the
people of two nations-the greatest on
earth, united by the ties of kindred
and blood and by common tongue
by the death of Hon. Thomas Francis
Bayard.
Although Mr.. Bayard's death was
not unexpected, by reason of the long
Illness that foretold it as surely as fate,
1t falls with crushing weight upon all
his friends and upon the people on
both sides of the Atlantic who had
come to know him and to love him
well. In his life he had been full of
strength, and although he had we'll
nigh reached the Scriptural limit of
three score years and ten, he possessed
such yigor, both of mind and body,
up to few months ago, that it was
