Reciprocity by Joint Resolution.

y -
The defeat of the latest Hay-Bond
treaty with Newfoundland by narrow
minded senate has shown that it is use
less to hope for reciprocity with Canada
Mexico or any other country by treaty
since treaties can be ratified only by a
two-thirds vote OF, the United States sem
ate, condition almost impossible of ac-
oomplishment. The friends of reciprocity
therefore. will have to defeat the ':stand-
patters' as Kuroki has defeated Kuro-
patkin. We must circumvent our sena-
tor1al autocracy by a flank movement.
The late revered Senator Hoar said to
me two years ago: you will not succeed
in getting reciprocity by treaty. I do
not think that to be the proper method,
Such legislation, being a revenue meas
ure financial in its character, should orig
mate in the house of representatives. .
Recent experience has shown the wisdom
of his remark. s''"i],, -. -
The few men still in active life who.
like myself, took an earnest interest in
the annexation Of Texas, will remember
that 1t was found impossible to accom-
plish this by treaty. Altho the south at
that time dominated both parties and con-
trolled the legislation of the country, we
struggled in vain to secure the necessary
two-thirds vote of the senate to ratify
the annexation treaty. Failing in that,
Henry Clay, then in the zenith of his pop
ularity, was defeated for president be-
cause he refused to pledge himself in it's
favor, James K. Polk was elected presi-
dent on the annexation issue, and Texas
was brought into the union by a joint
resolution enacted by bare majority of
the senate and house of representatives.
The present movement for the CONNER
cial annexation of the American continent
to the United States succeed only by
similar tactics. We must organize a ma
tional league for constitutional reciprocity
thru tariff reduction. We must capture
a majority Of the states as we captured
Massachusetts last fall in the republican
state convention-by1 an appeal to the
plain people, against the monopolists;
Thereby we shall compel a change Of ma
tional policy and carry our point by con-
gressional legislation PES. 2s.. 49,. 49,.
So long as our tariff against Canada
averages 40 per cent while her tariff
against us averages only 81 per cent reci-
procity cannot be attained without re-
duction in our tariff. A substantial equali-
zation- of duties on both sides the line
is indispensable as the basis for equitable
commercial reciprocity between the two
countries. Henry B. Blackwell. =

WOMEN AND CLOTHES
Right to Finery Resists All Effort

Terre Haute Star.
The "new woman' has been ex-
plotted and discussed, both pro and con,
so extensively that the world is rather
that because en she is Inclined little to.
ward athletics she is none the less a.
woman; that because she developed
somewhat the practical side Of her ma
ture she is none the less charming as a
feminine enigma; that because she is a
little more Independent than in the good
old days Of the 'clinging vine'' she
is even more fascinating. People can
become accustomed to anything, and
the new woman has probably come to
stay. The world is now admitting that
the active and enthusiastic young girl
on the links, climbing the hills or dash
ing pell-mel along country byways on
horseback is much more admirable than
the trembling, cringing young parlor
plant Of the elder day.
But there is one feature to the new
woman idea that is so decidedly at vari-
ance with the popular conception of
womanhood that the world has not yet
accustomed itself to the change. There
of a portion Of the fair sex which is
affiliated with the Woman's Club fed
GRAFTON that is somewhat disconc erting
to most men, and must be positively
frightful to most women. There is a
disposition to question woman $ right
her divine right-to finery. It is now
claimed that elegant attire is expensive;
that plain clothes are just as warm and
do just as well.
Now, really, ism It that becoming just
little bit too practicalg Who ever
heard Of striking down any portion Of
the woman kingdom because it was too
expensive? Portions have been demol-
ished because they were deemed too
cheap-but too expensive, never!
We are constrained to seriously ques-
ton the propaganda against elegant at
tire for women. Old Mother Eve and
her immediate daughters. taught the
world to look upon the woman as a pea
|cock-radiant, proud and beautiful. AND
thru all the changing years from Egypt
and Rome down thru the dark ages and
on until today the mind Of woman has
turned toward clothes. And we are
glad of it. There is nothing in creation
as disgusting as a slovenly-dressed
woman, nothing SO, dainty and attrac:
tive as one becomingly gowned., And
so we raise our masculine voice in
protest against this rather unusual
movement of the Federation Of Wo-
men 3 Clubs.

Pensacola. Oct. 2.-(speciaL) binder ordinary circumstances. the public schools throughout this county would have opened up for business today and hundreds of children would have bid ndien to vacation time. But. under an action of the Board of Publ ic Instruc- tion, which was passed some weeks ago, the day of opening was postponed until the first week in November, in order that all quarantines would be out of the way.
 The order delaying the opening of the city schools had wider reach than was supposed at first. It has been dis covered that many of the schools throughout the county will be unable to open up this week. The majority of teachers for the rural schools are sup piled from the city and there Is no; probability of the teachers getting out of here for the present to assume their charges. Superintendent of Public In- struction N. B. Cook was forcible re- minded of this fact this morning when he sought to arrange for the transpor- tion of teachers through the quaran- tine lines. So far as known, there will be no attempt to open country schools until the first Monday in next month, and IL Is hoped that all danger of dis ease and all restriction of quarantine will have been declared of by that ti@e.
