RECIPROCITY PRQSPERING.
Negotiations With South American
Countries Progressing.

Reciprocity negotiations continue to
proceed in manner satisfactory to of
ficials, bus there is no pre- ent prospect
that treaties or agreements Will be
concluded in the near future. The
negotiations with Peru are farthest
along and these have reached point
where the draft of treaty has been
made. There are mum Der of poi nts
open, however, and Minister Eguilguran
is now in communicate on with the gov
ernment with the view to closing the
matter. In connection with the ne
gotiations he has received from Pc u
samples of the remarkable cotton
grown in that country Unlike the
cotton of the southern states and
other cotton sections, that of Peru has
many colors other than white.
Brazil, Argentina and Chilli have
made no move thus far toward recipro-
city. A more satisfactory trade con-
dition has been established with Ar
| yentina, however. 1t was understood
at one time that retaliatory legislation
would be resor,ed to by Argentina, as
a means of offsetting the Dinsley act
restrictions. This has not been done,
| Argentina is said to cOutaina:. prOvi-
sions especially burdeusome to Amer
leans goods. Most of the ministers OF
American republics have advised
their governments as to the Dingley
provision on reciprocity, and are await
ing instructions.
| The French negotiations are awaiting
Ambassador Cam bou's further instruc-
| ions from Paris. The German nego-
tiations are not being pushed, so far as
can be lea ned, and it is felt tina. &C
ion on them will depend considerably
upou the success of the movements tC
have European countries which gave
q bounty on certain prod ucts, mainly
sugar, unite in common action.

James Sanburn and little daughter
Louise, of Jeffersonville, leave tonight
for Ell Paso, Texas, to join their hue
band and father, James Sanburn, who
holds responsible position in a rail-
road flee in that place.
The many frienGs of Mrs. Sanburn
will regret to see her leave, but are
glad that she goes to join her husband
under such favorable circumstances.
She has for many months been the Or
ganist and director of the choir at
Morton chapel. and her departure
will cause conspicuous vacancy
in the mu-ical circles of the city.
In addition to years of study, Mrs.
Sauburn possesses natural musical
talent, viii COM ines in making her
one of the most accomplished perform
ers in the south. Her accomplishments
have been highly praised by learned
ar lists, Ond sne will be valuable aodi-
ton to the social and musical circles OF

COAST FOR IIFICATIONs BILL.
Money Appropriated to be Applied to
Defen- eS Direct.

Definite plans have been made in
congress for the further prosecution of
the work of fortification along the
coast.says the GiObe-Democrxt.'' They
will follow the same line agreed upon
for the navy, which is rather to hurry
up the use of war-like material already
on hand, rather than to make heavy
expenditures for guns and ships which
can not be ut; LIKED for years to come.
! The Notifications bill will carry a con
siderably smaller amount than that of
last year, but the money spent will be
| spent where it will have an immediate
effect in prot 5ctiug coast defenses. It
is secreU which has been carefully
| kept by government officials, and es-
pecially by the heads of the war depart
ment, that New York, Boston and San
! Francisco are today fortified to de-
| gree sufficient to keep off almost any
! foreign feet. This statement was
made positively today by an officer
who knows the facts, who said that the
danger to those three ports in case of
war had finally been adequately pro-
vided for. Toe present purpose of
those having the matter in charge In
congress is to expend quiet large sum
of money fo- disappearing carriages for
| the new rifles.
There are already on hand and order
ed many more big guns than could
possibly be put in place in the next
two years What is wanted now, is,
first, simply Notifications and en-
placements for the guns now laying
around on skids; second, large
supply of the new type of carriages:
third, light Notifications to protect the
gunner, and, fourth, barracks and
houses for the artillerymen. During
the last year the development of the
marvellous disappearing carriage for
1ar nf vi hoc
been beyond the expectation of the Of
ficials themselves. These disappearing
carriages of the Crozier- Buff ton
type can now be built rapidly for about
$25, 900 each, whereas the old
|. hydraulic lift, which was ever very sat-
isfactory, cost in the neighborhood OF
!, $3.50, 900.
The Notifications bill this year will
therefore, cCutain but moderate ap
preparations for new guns, but will ap-
, propriate a large amount for ammuni
, ton, carriages and emplacements, with
: a sufficient sum to provide barracks for
enough men to man all the coast de.
lenses. The purpose of the war de-
, partmeDt and of congress is to fortify
} large cities, W ich could be made the ba
sis of an attack for thelevy of blackmail
J The small towns along the coast will
be allowed to take care of themselves
The officials have figured out that II
, they conce nLrate their energies or
places like Boston, New York, the
; entra1 ace 10 Chesapeake Bay, Mobile
Savannah, the mouth of the Delaware
Charleston, the mouth of the Missis
sippi, Galveston, San Francisco, the
| Puget SQUAD, they Will be reasonably
, secure against the attacks of foreign
Gets, which would not be likely
l to make combined movement
, against the smaller places, becaus.
: their destruction would not infict
! a severe blow upon the commerce o
the country.

THE papers of FL Paso occasionally
poke fun at the HERALD because it cul-
tivates the people with religious and
moral tendencies. Some day they will
awaken to the fact that the religious
anu moral classes are better paying
patrons than those who practice neither
m ora nor religion.

A few months ago. Mr.. Byron Every,
of Woodstock, Mich, was badly aff1ict-
ed with rheumatism. His right leg
was swollen the full length, causing
him great suffering. He was advised
to try Chamberlain's Pain Balm. The
first bottle of it helped him consider
ably and the second bottle effected q
cure. The 25 and so cent sizes are for

THE barbarous but legal practice of
putting men to death instead of punish
ing them, for murder, especially on
circumsIantial evids nee, should be dis
continued. The execution of This bar
barous law, as shown by the statistics
OF several states, does not prevent the
crime of murder. Death is not punish
ment, as the good ID bad alike pass
away. AS a rule the law seeks to in
flict painless death. Ia this respect
the good suffer more than the guilty.
The IN 10 follows the example of the
law. One assumes guilt and executes
without nercy-and the other does
practically the same in many cases, for
the jury fears to run counter to the fury
of toe mob. The sensational press of
the country is largely responsible for
many legal as we'll as illegal (mob)
murders. When a community is in
tensely excited over some dastardly
murder the sensational press seizes the
opportunity to excite the public mind
and to sell a few additional papers
daily-by bounding to conviction and
death some suspe c:ed person.
