An anti-expansion meeting was
held at Minneapolis last week.
There was more treason spouted at
the meeting than there has been
breathed since the trouble with
Spain began. Gov. John Lind was
present and by his presence and by
word of mouth cOuntenanced every
anarchistic word that was uttered
at the meeting.

Judge Collins announces definite
ly that he will not be an active
candidate for the Republican guber-
Material nomination. Judge Collins
would have made a strong candi-
date. He will probably be renomi-
mated for associate justice of the
Supreme court. At the present
time the indications point to the
nomination of Capt. S. R. VanSant.
But politicians are likely to change
the checker board most any time.

son, and special rates given to
families only of four or more Par
ties holding meal tickets will be
obliged to pay for the Sunday din

So when the Isla de Ponape, that used

brought us cigars and coffee.

They're settled now, as far as any

II is our right under the convention it
self TO cease its observance. Noah Web
ster thus defines a conventions:
g. An agreement or contract less formal
than. or preliminary TO, treaty; an in
formal contract as between commanders or
armies In respect TO suspension OF hostil-
agreement between governments or sov-
erelgn powers; as a postal convention be-
tween two governments.
Whether called n treaty or eonven-
ton, we have no agreement for perpet-
ual arrangements as TO commerce and
navigation with any nation whatso-
ever; but with all nations there Is a
time limit fixed, with annulment and
abrogation provided for on one years
notice. IL we submit forever to ar
rangements that have proved ruinous
and degrading, we have only ourselves
and our government to blame.

Guilty. We should have the manlness,
with ten times the population, wealth
and power, 10 resume our right and
perform our duty. 1t was remark OF
jefferson, that "all experience hath
shown that mankind are more disposed
10 suffer while evils are siderable, than
10 right themselves by abolishing the
forms 10 which they are accustomed"
This is all there is in the talk about
treaty" hindrance TO the proper pro-
lection Of American shipping.

The Laugh IL ON Them.

One thing which is moving protec-
tionists TO mirth just now is the spec
tucle OF two or three OF the fercest
free trade newspapers in Massachu-
sets setting forth unanswerable dem
onstrations that the foreign commerce
OF Great Britain is and long has been
of a standstill. and that the scepter Of
mercantile supremacy Is swiftly pass
ing over 10 the United States. This Is
monumental truth which has been
proclaimed in the Boston Journals edl-
torial columns time and time again for
these half-dozen years-and IL never
failed TO turn these same free trade
newspapers purple in the face with
fury. They have published rcams OF
copy" endeavoring to refute exactly
what they now assert as an original dis
covery In their newborn zeal against
imperialism" IL strikes us that the
Journal rather has the laugh on Its
heallong contemporaries. -- Boston

Ing for four years from signature.
More conventions"
There was second convention" at
London, October 20, 1918. respecting
fisheries. boundary, etc, that by its
fourth article extended the time Of tho
reciprocity convention for ten years;
and by third Convention" at London,
August 6. 1927, the time was further
indefinitely" extended by it's first ar.i-
Gle "from the date Of the expiration of
the said ten years." but Article IL. fol-
lowing reads thus:
1t shall be competent, however, to either
OF the contracting parties. In case either
should think 1T. at any time after the said
ten years-that Ia, after the 10Th OF Octo-
Der. lS2s-on giving due notice OF u months
to the other contracting party, 10 annui
and abrogata this ''convention;" and IL
shall. In such case, be accordingly entirely
annulled and abrogated. after the expira-
ton OF the said term OF notice.
Thus the convention" might have
been annulled and abrogated by either
party on the Goth OF October, 1929, or
at any time since, in conformity with
it's own provisions. II has been in force
over go years at least against the inter-
est OF the United States, and for the last
81 years TO the lingering sufferance OF
the country. Why should we longer
submit 10 the winner OF an unjust con-
test? IL she insists we shall, are we to
be her subordinate forever?
No Violation of Treaty Obligation.
A wrong impression is abroad that
a return TO the early ship protection Of
discriminating duties involves viola
ton OF treaty with Great Britain.
There is nothing of the kind involved.
Our agreement of July 3, 1915, was not
treaty in the proper sense, but a
convention" with time limit fixed.
This distinction is important. We have
discharged every obligation TO the full.
