Blnghnmton nlso lias a snail-like method of pavinn the streets, and the people arc complaining, Just as they are In Scranton. Against American Commerce. There seems to be a great difference In oolnloii as to what congress really Intended In passing Section 22 of the Tariff act. To the majority of the American people It was clear that pro tection In favor of United States ves sels and npnlnst bringing' foreign Im portations Into this country by the way of Canada nnd contiguous countries was tho spirit, as well as the letter, of the law. That Canada also adopted this view of the matter with much re Bret and man:' protestations is proved by the general complaint that ascend ed from the press of the Dominion. In high official quarters the question of retaliation was gravely discussed, and . Indeed for the past few months the Canadian Journals have contained little but criticisms of what they termed our unfriendly net, together with lamenta tions about the privileges allowed Americans In the Klondike region. It was thoroughly understood ncross the border that Section 22 was aimed at the commercial Interests carried on by the Canadian Pacific and no expectation that the law would be otherwise In terpreted was entertained. Canada, while considering some mode of re taliation for the alleged unnelghborly position taken by the United States In this measure has herself Imposed a discriminating duty against tea and several other articles received by the way of this country. All these points were considered In framing the bill and congress In passing It must have contemplated the securing of Justice long delayed to American commerce. In speaking of the recognized neces sity for making a discriminating law, the Philadelphia Press says: Tho Canadian Pacific railroad was con structed as a military roaa and heavily subsidized by tho Canadian government. It runs a line of steamships on tho Pa cific, which lino Is heavily subsidized by both the Canadian and British govern ments. Tho vessels were constructed for Mise In tho Biltlsh na-,y in case of war. Tlieso combined subsidized steamship and railroad lines have diverted a largo trade from American steamship and railroad lines. Carrying the matter still rurther a contract has been made, nnd the ves sels aio now In course of construction, fm another fast steamship line runnlns to Europe, to connect with the Canadian roada on the Atlantic. This last line is to receive an annual subsidy of $257,500 from the Biltlsh government and $313,000 Irom tho Canadian government. The vessels are to bo for use In tho British navy in caso of war. Does the attorney general mean to say that congress desires to give theso British subsldied lines the same prlvllego in competing for our homo trade, though landing at foreign ports, as our own vessels? If so, we think that he Is mistaken. The protest from tho American side against the general interpretation of the section comes from New England, where It Is claimed that Important business interests are at stake, but the opinion Just rendered by Attorney General McKenna to the effect that congress did not intend such discrim ination against Canada will call forth protests from all other portions of the country. While for the present the at torney general's opinion will guide the customs officials, the Supreme court will probably be asked to finally decide the question. It is to be hoped that congress will soon take up the matter and make It unmistakably plain that America Is at last In a position to pro tect her shipping and compete with England on the seas. Opals aro unlucky stones for Miss Florence Harmon, who stole an opal ring, set with diamonds, from a New York Jeweler and was caught In the theft. Regarding Adulterations, In these days of surprises the modern chemist comes forward with tho state ment that food adulterations are not dangerous. A New York man of mys tery has advanced the opinion that the cheap whisky of the Bowery Is not dan gerous to health, because, if there Is any difference. It Is more wholesome than the higher priced varieties. He discovers that In order to make the ctuft cheap It Is adulterated with cheap Ingredients, which are less pernicious In their effects than genuine alcohol and whisky, and that the Bowery sup. posed poisons have nothing against them except that they are deceptive, In not being what they purport to bo real whisky. Nevertheless they con tain enough alcohol to satisfy the buyer, and as much as tho prlco he pays for the stuffs leads him to expect In return. An exchange, In. commenting upon the subject, holds that there is no doubt that the danger from adulter ated products of all sorts has been largely overestimated. The evil to flow from the use of coffee that Is adul terated with chicory or rye Hour can hardly be regarded as serious, nor can any danger come from tho use of butter which Is partly oleomargarine, Then on tho other hand, some adulter ations are Injurious, as alum In flour, acids and preservatives In spices tind nppotlzers, tho chemicals that nro used to keep milk sweet, and to mako canned goods attractive, etc. But whether the Adulterants aro harmful or not Is reallv not nil of tho question of adulterated nrtlcles. Of course, In the Bowery, where a customer pays a Bowery price and expects Uowcry whisky In return, the quality Is not of so much consequence if It la harm less. But when tho buyer pays for a genuine article, and Is put off with one that is not what ho buys, whether It Is hnxmless or not ho lias grounds to complain Just as much as though his money had been taken by any other form of theft, m Mayor Harrlsdn, of Chicago, ex presses the opinion that if the people want boxing exhibitions they should have them, He Is tho ofllcial who Is unaware that any gambling la going on in the "Windy City. Cnrlotta's Tragic Life. The word that come3 from Brussels to the effect that ex-Empress Carlotta Is nt the point of death, recalls one of tho most tragic life stories in tho his tory of royalty, Tho cx-emprcsswasone of tho most prominent among the vic tims of Napoleon III,, -who was more of a serpent than u man. Another woman wearing a similar crown of sor row Is the ex-Empress Eugenie, who for twenty years has been a lonely nnd broken-hearted exile. It Is Im possible to think of these two wrecked lives without connecting them with the dark political crimes of Napoleon III. The evil that one false-hearted prince may commit 1? illustrated In tho career of that usurper. When a state prisoner In France he wrote of an Ideal republic with much of the philosophy and more than the fervor of Plato. But when placed at the head of a republic he betrayed it nnd drove its defenders abroad. Carlotta was born a princess among princesses. Her father, King Leopold ".. of Belgium, was a brother of Queen Victoria's mother, and her mother was a daughter of Louis Philippe, King of France. Carlotta married a brother of the present Emperor of Austria. Her whole life previous to going to Mexico was a dream of brightness and luxury. Married at 20, she resided at the splen did castle of Mlramar, on the Adriatic, belonging to her husband, whose tastes, like her own, ran to the study of lit erature and art. She was but 24 when she came to Mexico, too young and in experienced to know the terrible possi bilities hidden In the sinister scheme of Napoleon HI. to extend his power to this continent. It was the discovery of the black perfidy of tho French Em peror that destroyed Carlotta's rea son. Since .that day In June, thirty years ago, Carlotta has passed through many varying phases of a mind dis traught. After a brief stay at Mlra mar she was taken to a country seat of her family at Laeken, near Brussels, where her health Improved. Later, she lived at the royal castle of Ter vueren until it was destroyed by a con fllgration, from which she escaped un harmed. Since then she has resided at a chateau near Laeken. There have been years when her health was so far restored that, under the secret vigi lance of attendants, she maintained the ceremonious life of a court. She was fond of music, walked much, and was Interested In the wardens, nnd all her surroundings were kept In perfect condition from her private fortune of $350,000 a year. Three years ago she became melancholy, her health de clined, and few vestiges of reason have remained. More than half her life of fifty-seven years has been darkened by insanity. The world, noting tho contrast with Its former brilliancy, will read the hollowness of wealth, power and title when Involved In an unholy ambition. The result of mixing French and Russian microbes by President Faure and the Czar of Russia in their kiss ing operations Is eagerly awaited by an anxious world. The Novelty Worn Off. The much advertised free silver camp meeting held at Springfield, 0., recently wps not up to tho expecta tions of the most sanguine followers of nn out-of-date creed. In fact, it ap proached a damn and dismal failure. If the hopeful Bryanltes had taken time to consider the condition of tho country they need not have been dis appointed at tho fizzle. As the Pitta burg Times remarks, free silver Is a theory in itself that has little to at tract followers any more than any other abstract question. As applied to the conditions of business which pre vailed last year It was a popular draw ing theme, for people thought some thing was offering that would bring relief. Now that the practical applica tion of the theory has been defeated, and that business is Improving with out It, the Interest In tho theory has been lost. The average man Is as little concerned in free silver for money as he Is in Bessemer steel for rails. When captivating speakers like Mr. Bryan, who was In the class of curiosi ties as well as orators, appeared at a meeting, a crowd was sure to greet him. Mr. Bryan would draw a crowd today, and ho would attract it whether ho talked silver or played center field In a game of base ball. But sliver does not possess the interest for a curious crowd that a living and famous man does, so the crowds at Springfield were small, Unfortunately for the promot ers of the free silver scheme, they played all their good cards when their extremity compelled them to last fall, and they have nothing left but the bare and uninteresting platitudes. Nobody cares for platitudes with the novelty worn off, and many who believed them when beset by hard times laugh at them now. Free silver put up a brave and boastful fight last fall, but this fall the preaching of the doctrine sounds more like mockery. Free silver will not bo formidable again If the sound money hosts do not give It encouragement and do not overlook Its attempts to rally. Judge Halsev, of Atlanta, has ren dered a decision that should give him an honorary membership of all suff rage associations, Prohibition conven tions and other bodies where women congregate. It Is to the effect that an unmarried woman Is not old when she reaches tlio age of forty, nnd In fact that she Is still a young lady after she has passed her forty-fourth birthday. It has taken a good many centuries to worm this admission out of somebody alleged to speak with authority; und It seems to como with considerable sig nificance In theso latter days, when tho adage that a woman Is only as old as she looks Is rather generally accepted. Tho next proceduro should bo to accuro nn opinion as to the age when a mar ried woman Is to bo considered old. It may stiprlso many residents of tho United States to know that Indignities to the American flag aro not encourag ed In Canada, John Lumsden, a Cana dian was miprlsed to learn this fact tho other day when he tore up a specimen of Old Glory In Toronto and wns promptly marched off to the pol ice station for the offence. It was only a toy ring displayed In tho door of a novelty shop at tho Union Station but Its unostentatious waving aroused Mr. Lumsden's wrath and ho proceeded to demolish the offsndlng object afterl which he Jumped on It vindictively. An officer standing near arrested him and ho Is now longing for ball and wondering what is the uso of being a patriotic subject of her Majesty the Queen. m If it were not for tho little girls In New Jersey, tho X-ray people would have considerably less advertising. The melon seed Bwallowed by a Hobo ken damsel of seven ha3 been success fully located In her windpipe, while another little one In Harrison has been relleve'd of a hat pin five inches long, which sho thoughtlessly allowed to slip down her throat one day this week. Still another New Jersey child has undergone an operation after examina tion under X-rays, which has been the means of recovering the claw of her mother's favorite tack-hammer. National Chairman Jones was vis ibly disgusted the other day because there were only COO people out at the free silver camp meeting In Springfield, Ohio, to hear his great free silver speech. Tho farmers tried to excuse themselves for their apparent apathy by the explanation that they were so very busy harvesting their big crop of wheat, and so contented at tho pros pect of getting a dollar for It that they really couldn't bother to attend the meeting, even for the felicity of being told of their wretched condition under McKlnley times. Worth, of Paris, and Poole, of Lon don, may as well continue business at the old stand. What women want Is to get a "Worth gown made In Paris not in New York, and those who can ifffford to revel In wardrobes from Felix nnd "Worth can afford to pay duty on the same. Men who feel that It is expected of them to patronize a London tailor will probably keep on buying pretty coats and sweet ties across the water. If the "W. C. T. U. would follow the example of the miners at St. Michael's who gave the boatmen twenty-five lashes for bringing a load of whiskey Instead of provisions and the promise to smash every barrel of lire water conveyed up the river, tho temperance cause would have a boom In several localities outside of Alaska. A remarkable Incident In college life Is reported from Cornell University. Out of respect for the late Henry "W. Sage, Percy Field was closed and the candidates for the foot ball team rest ed a whole day. And now Anthony Hope Is headed this way and we shall probably bo given another impression of ourselves Instead of a novel worthy to succeed" "The Prisoner of Zenda." In Boston, the s:at of culture, the earnings of the "base ball teams In tho National League has been $125,000 for the season. Time to Sqiielch the Fool Joker Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. Danger In almost any form has a torrl b'.o fascination for many minds. A per son standing on a precipice or a high bridge is tempted to throw himself over. A man in a small boat with companions feels an lrrcslstiblo impulse to rock tho beat. Another looking at a deadly poison wonders how such an innocent appealing powder or liquid can .produce fatal results and Is incllneu to taste it. But probably no other form of peril is more demomao in its temptation to weak minds than that presented by firearms. Women nnd girls, as a rule, are shy of guns and pistols, but men and boys in numerous case show the most perverso disposition to fool with them. The deadly mischief an 'unloaded" guu or revolver can, do has becomo a standing Joko with tho nowspapjrs. Scores and hundreds of graves have been tilled with tho bodies of persons who "didn't know it was loaded." o A caso of this kind was recorded In our columns yesterday. A youth at Concsus, standing at tho bedside of his sick mother, with a revolver in his hand, nriposed to show her how peoplo committed suicide. It was raro entertainment for an Invalid. The young man first snapped th lock on all tho barrels and no explosion followed. Then ho pointed It at his breast, snapped It again, and fell over with a ball in his body. It Is hoped he will survive. If ho does ho will kr ow more. Ho has had his lesson, but today or tomorrow some other person will do tho same thing. This youth's performance is to be commended in ono feature of It, at least. He was con siderate enough not to point tho "empty" pistol at .his mother. As a rule theso ex perimenters kl'.l their friends instead of themselves. o These perils aro enough in tho world without needlessly creating occasions of danger. When one gets Into a tight place he fhould be a man and meet tho emer gency bravely. But to fool with danger and death is sheer Idiocy, The person who points a gun or revolver at another "for fun" ought to be knocked down on tho spot and aoverely thrashed, oven If al who are present can swear that the weapon la not loaded. Men have been known to swing children on the edge of high banks or structures with a view to producing a llttlo sensation and amuse ment. Theso acts, when fairly examined, will be found to be nbt only reckless, but mean and dastardly. Practical Jokes which derive all tholr significance from real or supposed peril to those upon whom they are played como pretty near being crimes. The sufferers from them havo a right to resent them as an outrage and, if able to do so, to punish tho perpetra tors. ' m TOO MUCH l'OHTICS. From the Marchull, Mich., Statesman, Tho facts are that wo have altogether too much politics In this country. It is nil right and perfectly proper that every voter should seek to Inform himself as far as he may, with safety to his other duties, on all the political problems that nro presented for a solution by the bal lot. But many times It occurs that bo foro one campaign Is fairly ended an other Is begun, and thus It happens that In many cases the farm, tho store and tho shop are forgotten, business Is ne glected, friendships aro broken in a vain and profitless discussion of only half understood questions. Theso things ought not so to be. Tho money spent and tlmo wasted In a national campaign would In a few years amount to n sum sufficient to pny oft out national dobt. Would it not bo better wisdom to drop tho discussion of politics for a time, to havo moro business and less bluster; to put our shops and stores, Instead of our political arguments, In order; to cul tlvato our fields and tho amenities of our better natures inBtcad of strifes and con tentions of our political differences; to practlco tho gospel of pcaco nnd good will instead of tho heresy of mallco and hatred? Thero Is a sure profit, quick dividends nnd withal great pcaco and true happi ness in tho experiment. rilEJUDICK AGAINST CORN. From tho Syracuso Journal. Old stories aro told In connection with tho Introduction of American corn Into Germany. Fifteen years ago tho Gor man peoplo regarded corn meal with as much disfavor as so much marble dust for food. Corn meal was even looked upon with as much fear as If It were a deadly poison. It required tho patient work of several years to overcomo this prejudlco against corn meal, and it has been ono of tho duties of tho American Legation at Berlin to assist in educating tho Kaiser's subjects in tho uso of corn meal as human food. It was perhaps, Ilfteen years ago, that certain Americans in Berlin ono day presented each member of tho Reichstag with nn old-fashioned corn pono, which had been prepared by an American cook, Tho wise law makers agrarians, socialists and others, seemed to bo dubious about tho value of tho present until the virtues of corn pono wero fully explained. It took years to educate the masses In tho uso of tho new meal, nnd It Is not in general uso yet among tho poor. CKI9IE AND LITERATURE. From tho Kansas City Star. Tho fact is noted that a Buspected thief lately arrested by tho Kansas City pollco carried In his pocket, and diligently per used whllo In custody, not a tale of blood, murder and crime, but Bcatrico Harra den's "Ships That Pass in tho Night." This is taken as a singular circumstance, it liclng a popular belief that most crim inals are madu so by reading bad books, and that after they enter upon a career of systematic wickedness they read noth ing else. Tho observations made by tho officers of prison libraries show that tho literary taste of prisoners Is fairly good, and that they Beem most inclined to standard fiction, It has been abundantly demonstrated that n very bad man may bo fond of good books, Tho most danger ous class In the community is recruited not so much from thoso who read doubt ful books as from tho class who cannot read at all. 0 TRIBUTE TO GOV. HASTINGS. From tho Hartford Curant. Governor Hastings, of Pennsylvania, has earned another credit mark. For reasons best known to themselves, tho members of the state board of pardon3 recommended thrco Philadelphia ballot thieves for exccutlvo clemency. Tho sentence in tho caso of these rascals was imprisonment and perpetual dis franchisement. The board advised the Governor to remit tho last part of this sentenco and -estoro the ballot thloves to citizenship. Tho governor emphati cally refubed to do anything of the kind. "Ho who either as election officer or briber contributes to the spoliation of tho American ballot should be accursed of men," said Governor Hastings, "and tho stain which discolors him should bo reflected upon every person, high or low, who profits by his crime." TIOKE GAINING WISDOM. From the Rochester Post-Express. Hoko Smith, of Georgia, who left Pres ident Cleveland's cabinet, becauso of tho constraint of the free silver sentiment of his section, and supported Bryan by his pen and his vote, is one of tho many who aro now on tho penitential bench. Ho favors tho abandonment of tho 16 to 1 Issue, and depreciates tho "extreme features" of Bryanism. As Bryanism Includes none but extreme features, tho degredatlon of tho currency, tho denial of national good faith, tho overthrow of tho Judiciary and fealty to tho commune, Mr. Smith may be fairly said to havo deserted the Bryan camp, into which he was evidently led against his better Judgment. Ho should have been wiser at tho first, but evidently his reason is returning to him. And thero are others. MEXICO'S MISTAKE. From the Washington Star. It is very well for Mexico to copy this country's financial ideas; but it should have drawn the line there. A little In vestigation would have disclosed tho fact that lynching is by no means a national Institution. AN ILLUMINATED JOKE. From tho Chicago Times-Herald." A Baltimore husband who knocked his wlfo down with a lamp tho other night seemed to be very much surprised In pollco court tho next morning to learn that sho didn't mako light of him. JOY IN THE KLONDIKE. Oh tho Yukon's frozen stiff and tho snow is thirty deep, But tho gay Klondike mosquito ho is dead; And when you make a night of It you rather long for sleep, But you daro look out at morning with no screen doors round your head. Tho mercury is down so low It registers no more; And tho swear I uttered yesterday Is frozen to my chin; And tho ceiling's full of icicles, result ing from my Biiore, But tho gay Klondike mosquito Is called in. September. Light o'er the meadow her dainty foot fleeing, Half regrotful, half roguish, sho smiles In her flight. Around her, as airy, as bright as her belng, Float hopes she has kindled and dreams of delight, Gossamer like, In the deepening twilight, Gay-hearted summer fades from our slsht. Back from tho sea and tho mist-covered mountain, Back to the whirl and tho din of tho town; While mem'ry recalls the soft ring of tho fountain, The dapple of oars and tho boat drift ins down, Tho pulse of that waltz and the sheen of that gown, And loves that grow cold as tho foliage turned brown. Tho gray days much follow the gold not forever, Last long Idlo hour3 of sunshine; thero seems A chill In tho heart as a chill In the weather, When from our painted trees autumn radiantly beams, And thick by tho roadside tho goldenrod gleams.
