SENATOR ALDRIcH OPPOSED.
Argues Against Ratification Of French
Reciprocity Treaty.

The Senate committee on foreign relations
today listened to an argument by Senator
Aldrich in opposition to the ratification of
the French reciprocity treaty. 1t was ex-
pected that the senator would speak upon
the general policy of entering into recipro-
cal trade relations with other countries un-
der the provisions of the Dingley act but
he did not find time to do that or to dis
cuss any other of the treaties now pending
before the committee. He took a very posi-
tive position against the French treaty
saying that in his opinion it was a perni-
cious agreement and calculated to work
great injury. He sa id that in making the
concessions provided for in that treaty the
United States was securing only the low
tariff rates of France. which are uncondi-
tionally granted to other countries and
which should be ours by right.
The committee did not act upon any of
the reciprocity treaties before it, but it
made public the definition of policy with
reference to the House of Representatives
committee has agreed upon. The practical
enect OF this agreement is to authorize the
amendment of each of the reciprocity trea-
ties by adding the provision that this
treaty shall not take effect until the same
shall have been approved by the Congress 4"
The effect of this modification will be to
require that the House as we'll as the Sem
ate shall act upon each of the treaties.
In announcing its decision the committee
says that it is entirely competent for the
Senate TO 50 amend the treaties as to re-
quire the approval of both houses, but it
contends that this concession does not In
any way effect the prerogatve of the Presi-
dent and the Senate as the only treaty.
making power of the United States For
this prerogative the committee stands out
stiffiy.
Limitations Of Congress.
The report says: The Congress is with
out power to grant TO the President or to
the Senate any authority I'm respect of
treaties, nor does the Congress possess any
power to fetter or limit In any way the
President or the Senate in the exercise of
this constitutional function. 1t cannot en-
large or In any wise limit or attach con-
ditions to the exercise Of the treaty-making
power.
whether the treaty Is one which is self
executing, or one which requires iegisla-
.tion by the Congress to give IL effect It
must first. in any event. be negotiated by
the President and ratified by the Senate.
1.-The committee is clearly of the opinion
therefore. that nothing contained in sec-
tion 4 constitutes any valid restriction upon
the Jurisdiction and power Of the Senate
to act upon the commercial treaties Row
pending.
whether such treaties operate without
the approval OF Congress, to change tarifl
duties heretofore fixed by law, Is a ques-

EAT PLENTY OF FRUIT NOW.

If the people would eat more fruit,
they would take less medicine and
have better health. There is an old
saying that fruit is gold in the morn
ing and lead at night. AS a matter
of fact it may be gold at both times,
but it should be eaten on an empty
stomach and not as desert, when the
appetite is satisfied and digestion al
ready sufficiently taxed. Fruit taken
in the morning before the fast OF the
night has been broken is very refresh
ing and serves as a stimulus to the dl-
gestiye organs. A ripe apple or
orange may be taken at this time with
good effect. Fruit to be really valua-
BILE as an article of diet should be ripe,
sound, and in every way of good quail
ty, and, if possible, it should be eaten
raw. Instead of eating plate of ham
or eggs and bacon for breakfast, most
people would do far better if they
took some grapes, pears, or apples
fresh fruit, as long as it is to be had,
and after that they can fall back on
stewed prunes, figs, etc. II only fruit
OF some sort formed an important item
in their breakfast, women would gem
orally feel brighter and stronger, and
would have far better compilations
than is the rule at present.

GO HE Sanitary and Ship Canal Of
Chicago is probably the most re-
markable artificial waterway
ever built in the history of the world.
Its total length, including the improved
portion of the Chicago River, is thirty
four miles. 1t has the greatest width
Of any canal ON earth. having a cross
section of POP feet at the bottom and
300 feet at the top. The ultimate object
ls to afford a water way for the largest
ocean-going vessels from Lake Michi-
gan to the Gulf of Mexico.
The work is yet being carried on un-
ceasingly, the widening of the Chicago
River being now in progress. Residents
Of Chicago have already spent $37 ,37S,-
$40 in the construction Of the canal.
They must spend nearly $10,O00,O00
more before their part Of the work Is
done. Then it will cost $25,000,O0O ad-
ditional to complete the work necessary
to the proposed shipway. This latter
cAPehSc, AOWSNtl, IL 10 tAPcCtcu, Viii uc
borne by the Federal Government, and
the entire canal will become Govern
ment property.
Thus the total cost when the work at
present contemplated is finished will
have amounted to more than $S2, ,OOO,-
600. The Panama Canal is offered to
the United States for $40,O0O,O00, or
less than half the total cost of the Sani-
tary and Ship Canal. Had this canal
been built under conditions that prevail
In Central America its cost would prob
