STARTLED CARLYLE.
How Charles Godfrey Leland Brougb,
the Cynic to His Senses.

Charles Godfrey Leland said that on
his first meeting with Carlyle the wise
man showed himself I'm n somewhat
cynical frame OF IIind, from which he
was aroused only by bit Of whole.
some opposition.
"And what kind Of an American may
you be German or Irish or whatT
Carlyle asked.
"Since II interests you, Mr. Carlyle"
replied Leland, "tO know the origin Of
my family | may say that | am de-
seconded from Henry Leland, noted
Puritan. who went TO America In 1896"
II doubt whether any Of your family
have since been equal 10 your old Puri-
tan great grandfather" growled Car
lyle, and this, combined with some
slurrlng remarks which he had pre-
ylOusly thrown out I'm regard to AIuer-
lea and her history, reused Lelands
spirit
Mr. Carlyle" he said deliberately, "r
think that my brother, Henry Leland,
who got the wound from which he
died standing by my side in the war of
old Puritan ancestors. At least he
died I'm a ten times better cause. And
allow me 10 say, Mr. Carlyle, that |
think I'm all matters Of historical criti-
cism you are principally influenced by
the merely melodramatic and theatric-
al"
Carlyle looked utterly amazed and
startled, though not at all angry.
"Whots thot ye sayf" he cried in
broad Scotch
Mr.. Leland repeated the remark. A
grim smile us Of admiration came over
the stern old face. 1t was with a deeply
reflective and not displcascd air that
ne replied, still in Scotch.
"N0. na, I'm nae thot," he said. And
he dropped into milder strain and
made the interview an occasion to be
treasured long I'm memory

coming from Canada to the United
States is nearly so per cent, and the
average tariff on goods from the
United States into Canada is about
Is per cent. If the Dominion oi
Canada were to raise its duties APP
proximately to the level Of our own
it would practically destroy COM
merce between the two countries.
There is divided sentiment in
Canada today as TO which policy Is
the better for the development and
welfare of the Dominion. Men
competent to Judge of the situation,
both in Canada and the United
States, believe il possible to bring
about some reciprocal trade agree
ment which would prove mutually
advantageous to both countries. II
that is so, there can be no question
as to what should be the attitude OF
Massachusetts towards this move
ment. If the Republican party OF
the state takes a decided and adj
vanced position upon this subject at
this time it cannot fail to exercise
large influence, not only upon the
action OF other states, but also upon
the ultimate success Of the move

AT the rally held in Odd Fellows
hall last Friday evening by the Eighth
Ward Republican Club one of the
audience asked Congressman Capron
who was speaking, show about Mr..
Foss Of Massachusetts,, and what he
(Mr. Capron) thought of reciprocity
with Canada. The congressman
from the Western District replied as
follows:
"Mr. Montague of Canada said
here recently that "Whatever may
have been in the past, the time has
gone by when there could be reci-
procity between the United States
and Canada, and / believe l voice
the sentiment of 90 per cent. of the
people of Canada. Reciprocity
with Canada is my misguided friend
Foss's hobby, but between Mr..
Montague of Canada and Mr.. Foss
OF Massachusetts,, a defeated candi-
date for Congress, I'll take the opin-
ion ofMr. Montague. Our lamented
President Mckinley in the last
speech he made touched on tl.is, and
said that we should have reciprocity
when it could be secured without
damage to the industries of this
country"
1t would seem that even Repub-
lean congressman are not entirely
agreed on this matter, and we now
quote from a recent speech delivered
by Hon. Samuel L. Powers, Repub.
lican member Of congress from the
r7th district Of Massachusetts
"The next half-centary cannot fai

Coal Thieves in Douglas.

Three sneak thieves were given thirty lays each this morning by Judge Johnson. These men, all able bodied Americans, of the hobo spe cies. were caught selling stolen Coal. They had it in an old tub and in sacks and had stolen it from the cars at the depot. There are people in this town who buy most of their coal from these thieves, who sell it at greatly reduc. ed rate. They most know that the coal is stolen and according to law they are as guilty as the thieves themselves. The officers are making special ,fforts to stop this petty coal stealing and they say that they will look into the matter of people buying their stolen coal, and if evidence enough ran be found some of the peo- pie who are buying the stolen coal will find themselves in trouble before g.-International-A

The city council of Bisbee was in session on last Monday night and again had up for consideration the bill of Joseph Schwartz, of Douglas, for the plumbing work done in the city jail This bill has many times been before the city council. but Schwartz has never. been able to induce its pay ment. s.-.-...... -s.-.. . ..ss.ss.-s. as
 MT. Schwartz did the work for Bis bee, under a contract made with the city council. The contract is in writ ing and is signed by Mayor Muirhead ano is attested to by the city clerk. The am ,unt of the contract is 312S.75. and MT. Schwartz thinks # is a great outrage for the city, after fe has wait ed year for his money, 70 offer him the sum of s110 in full payment of the coatract.
