Enjoyment of the Mavaower.

A curious bill to restrict and localize
enjoyment of the maydower, or trailing
arbutus, a Plymouth county plant OF
some fame, has been introduced into the
Massachusetts, Legislature. The bill pro-
vides that mo person, except citizen
or real estate owner, shall gather or
disturb the plant of the trailing arbutus
or send the flower or plant from the
town in which it grows under penalty
OF $50 fine or 20 days Imprisonment in
the house of correction" The protec-
ton of the mayfower is not sought by
the bill, for the folks in the towns
where 1t grows can pluck it to the ex.
tent OF the crop. Evidently pot hunting
outsiders have been invading Plymouth
county in the mayflower season, carry

But why should Plymouth county re-
pine? She should think of the pleasure
which the exported arbutus gives to
outsiders. Some of it even reaches New
York, or used to reach it. Perhaps the
Society of Mayhower Descendants is
trying to control the whole OUTPUT.

can't be nearly enough mayfiowers to

Colonists In Sheepslxins Whose Economy
Is Painful to the Canadian Neighbors.
About year ago colony of Ruthe.
mans, almost entirely without funds,
arrived in Winnipeg for settlement in
the new lands of western Manitoba.
There are now about 5000 of these
people from east central Europe, in col.
Onies Of about /, 900 each, in Manitoba.
They all have cattle and crops food
enough to last till next season, farm
machinery, warm dwellings and barns.
The immigrants are no longer penniless
peasants, but landowners, and within
few years will be we'll to do. They
are economical to degree painful to
the surrounding Canadians and appar-
emily live on nothing. Indeed it has
been seriously debated this winter
whether they have not actually been
loss to the country, they spend SO little.
Not only are they economical in pur.
chases, but they keep their farms in
shape and house their machinery.
While all over the province valuable
machinery is left to rust and warp, not
even pillow or harrow will be seen
out Of cover on the Ruthenian farms.
These people dress in tanned sheep
skin, the wool side in, and wear top
boots and high wool caps. The women
dress like the men except for the shape
of the caps A womans greatest adorn-
ment is string of coral beads about
the neck. They all live in fioorless
houses of single room, in which the
entire family does all it's household
business and in which the smaller do
nestle animals, such as chickens, pigs,
calves and the like, also reside. The
houses are whitewashed inside and out
and are but one story high.
Several thousand additional Ruthe-
mans will locate in Manitoba this year,
coming direct from the old country

means for living; that before an immi-

must first call ON the American consul
and designate his destination in this
country. The prohibited points are
made clear to him, and if he has no OBJ

No immigrant is to be allowed by the
commissioner of immigration to make

Is to scatter the immigrants in and

Philip ID. Armour began the struggle
Tor life with nothing. The first capital he
got he dug out of the ground in the form

time to the possession of great wealth.

build up the great business of which he
Is master today. He has bought and sold

Oh producing industries, he has been most
successful. AS mere trader--a buyer

JOHN JAY.

Under His Direction Slavery was Abol-
ished In New York State.
John Jay rs one of the most interesting
characters In our national history. He
was born In New York city Dec. IL, 1745,
of Huguenot stock, and graduated from
King Columbia-college He was
admitted to the bar In 1868 and immedi-
ately became one of the most prominent
supporters OF the colonial cause. He was
colonel In the patriot army, chief of the
New York supreme court, member Of the
continental congress and the author of his
own states constitution. He was minis
ter to Spain two years, and with Franklin
and Adams negotiated the treaty of Paris.
Returning TO America, he was for five
years secretary for foreign affairs, and was
In 1889 appointed by Washington the first
chief justice Of the supreme court OF the
United States. He was minister to Eng
land In 1874, and In 1901 withdrew from
public life and devoted himself to study,
to philanthropy and to the emancipation
Of slaves. 1t was under his direction that
slavery was abolished In New York state
He died May II, 1929.
Nov. 10, 1894, John Jay signed in Lon
don the instrument known as jays treaty.
by which most of the questions In dispute
between England and the United States
were settled. There were many matters
left without definite understanding at the
end of the Revolutionary war; BY the
provisions Of the Jay treaty the northern
boundary Of Maine was determined, Amer
loan citizens recovered about $40, 600, 900
for illegal captures of vessels by English
cruisers since the peace of 1889, and all
the western posts still held by British gar
risons were surrendered.
The American people wanted some
things that Mr.. Jay was unable to secure
for them. He could not prevail on the
English diplomatists to open Canadian
ports to American vessels or to grant a
free traffic In West Indian seas, and the
regulations upon neutrality as between
English and French privatcers were not
what his countrymen desired.
The Jay treaty was really only supple
mentary to the treaty Of Paris, by which
the Revolutionary war was ended, and the
growing strength of the states rendered its
citizens impatient of anything less than a
concession by England. Jay
was most roundly abused. Public meet
fngs were held in half the cities of the
and he was accused of having
been purchased with British gold.
But President Washington felt assured a |
advantage had been gained,
and he approved the treaty, the senate |
ratifying his approval Aug. IA, 1906

RITzvILLE. OCTOBER 8, 1898.

The national debt of Spain is equiv
alent to one-fifth OF the whole wealth
Of the kingdom, or ninety-four dollars
per capita. The annual interest is six
dollars per capita. The debt of the
United States is less than one-one-
hundred-and-fiftieth OF our wealth,
and the interest is but fifty-three
cents to each Of our population. Our
total valuation in 1890 was one
thousand and tbirty-six dollars per
capita; theirs only four hundred and
sixty dollars. This means that the
people of Spain are taxed on their
debt alone nearly twelve times as
high as we, with little more than
two-ffths the means to pay. If we
measure their burden by their finan-
cial strength, it is nearly thirty times
rs heavy as. ours. Unhappy Spain.
