There Is no occasion for further de lay on the part of tho mayor with reference to tho asphalt lepalr appro priation, lie knows nil tho facts In tho cobo and should sign or veto promptly. Tho people have had enough delay. What they want now Is action. Aibltratlon Projects. Dispatches from The Hague, notably those printed In tho New York Sun, give hopeful news as to the progress which is being made by the leading delegates to the peacn congress toward the 'hammering out" of a workable project for International arbitration. Great Biltaln, llussia and the United States) seem to be In approximate ac cord as to the need of a permanent In ternational tribunal, nnd the differences of opinion ns to detalls'ought not, ono would think, to be Ii reconcilable. The proposition of Kussla, If cor rectly reported, is in substanco that Arbitration be made obligatory for dif ferences roneornlng pecuniary dam ages to a state or Its dependencies re uniting from vital facts of negllgenco by another statu or Its dependencies; nlxo In cases of dlsaRtcements regard ing ltiA'ii'iPtaiions or the application of the following iteiillm or conventions: Postal tilegiuphx, inllnays, submarine cables, for th pi e volition of collisions between ships In the open sea, naviga tion, International Hoods and Inter oeeaiile canal.", for the protection of lltcruiy and .iitistlr pioperty, for the lUotPL'tlnn of Imlllhttiul propety, Includ ing Inventions, ttadenuuks, commer cial mniks and names; monetary, sanl taiy, veterinary, and phjlloxeia con ventions for judicial and mutual as sistant e in technical and not political demat cations. 1'n.ch contraclng party can, with otlu-ti ngree for extending this list. Conrenilii!: Intel national commis sions, eaii Interested government shall nominate two members, and these four shall choose the fifth mcmber.who shall preside. If the vote Is equal the two governments shall nsk a third power or ii disinterested private person to select the picsldcnt. The British plan, Instead of contem plating tho bclectlon of a special com mission or tribunal for the adjudication of each case, would constitute a per manent court, to have Its headquarters in a neutral place, say Berne, The Hague or Brussels, and to be made up of two members lepresenting each of tho nations agreeing to share In Its creation. From this list of members, or judges, tho two parties to a dlsputo might choose an equal number, the Judges thus chosen to select their own president Judge; the expenses of such a court to be divided equally among the signatory powers. The details of the Ameilcan plan have not been divulged, but It is not probable that they differ radically from those of tho plan of Great Britain. In fact, it 13 reported that our delegates nie com mitted in a general way to the support of the English proposition, which Is largely the work of tho British ambas sador to the United States, Sir Julian Tauncefote. The most serious objection to the per manent tribunal idea, if appearance before it bo made compulsory as Kus sia suggests, is offered by the Cologne Gazette, which points out that when ever there wete signs that a great war was npptoachlng It would be found Im practicable for the icpresentatlves of tho powers concerned to disclose the secrets of their governments at arbi tration deliberations, and neither could they on the other hand keep the atti tude of their governments or possible alliances secret from each other. This is an objection, however, that does not affect the United States. And ir It should affect Get many or the other con tinental powers in matters of political contioveisy It need not necessarily bar the way to the arbitration of questions of pecuniary claims or questions of tieuty interpretation"" It Is well enough understood that there ate dlf feionCfd not suited to arbitration at the present btage of the world's de elopinent: but If the habit be formed of peimltttng a peaceful adjudication of differences which could Just ns well ns not be refened to nn International tribunal, it will help toward the re moval of obstacles to a complete ap plication of tho principle of pacific ar bitration. Tho slow pioccss of disarmament at Havana Is enough to discourage the delegates at The Hague. An Object Lesson. The moral superiority of law and or der over tho frenzied processes of the mob is strikingly Illustrated In an epl bode which occurred recently In the District of Columbia. A young white woman, Mrs. Hardy, living Jn a se cluded house some distance from Georgetown, was criminally assaulted one morning by a burly negro. The crime, In Its hldeousness, equalled any that has ever been committed In the cotton belt. Its details are unfit for print and scarcely fit to be thought of. Naturally the community's Indignation was enkindled, but instead of confid ing the case to the jurisdiction of Judge Lynch, the law-rpspectlnir Inhabitants of tho district cheerfully gave It over to the regularly constituted authori ties. These promptly arrested several sus pects, among them a negro named Busey, whom Mrs. Hardy believed to be her assailant. Hut this negro been In the keeping of a mob he would havo been hanged or burned within half an hour after his apparent identification. But under tho custody of the law offi cers ho was taken to prison and sub sequently established a complete alibi. As the Washington Star well says; "Transfer this case to any section of the country where the mob rules, and i what would have occurred? Can any- ttoay uourn' uusey wuuia nave oecn tortured nnd handed instantly upon his Identification. His plea of Innocenco would havo availed him nothing. No allowance would have been mado for posslblo error on the part of a woman speaking tinder tho strain of Intense) suffering nnd humiliation. The point ing of her linger at tho prisoner would have been tho signal for tho adjust ment of tho nooso and Iho hurrying of tho mob to Its awful work. And yet an Innocent person would have been dis patched and a crime committed. That would havo ended the matter, nnd tho guilty wretch would have escaped. Aa the case now stands, while Busey has been released, tho hunt for the culprit will go on. That he may bo caught Is tho fervent wish of all. That if lie la caught he will receive the severest punishment under the law Is absolutely certain. But all must agree that ns Busey had accounted for himself at tho time tho crime was committed, ho was clearly entitled to his freedom." Let us Imagine tho feelings of tho people of Washington and vicinity If, having broken all restraint of custom, law and reason, they had applied tho rope or torch to Busey, only to dis cover, a few hours after his death, that they had lynched the wrong man. There may be individuals so soggy In temperament as not to experience any compunctions of conscience or any twinges of tho nerves over tho wanton murder of an Innocent fellow-man; but these are low. To tho great majority participation In such an error would mean n burden of remorse perhaps never to bo wholly expiated or forgot ten. The way of tho law is tho only safe way. If the courts fall, then Is tho time to consider ulterior remedies. We nre glad to know upon the au thority of an interview in the Truth that tho mayor has no Intention of dis missing policemen on account of tho political combinations of men In coun cils or elsewhere who recommended their appointment. The mayor will be held to his word. Canadian. Peevishness. The spoiled child role indulged In by Canadian officials in their dealings with the United States has long been the cause of comment nnd Irritation. In connection with the editorial from tho Washington Star, which we print else where, explaining In detail the Alaskan boundary dispute that has suddenly at If en to harrass the amicable relations between Washington, Ottawa and Lon don, somo facts are given in a public statement recently Issued at Washing ton upon tho authority of "a promi nent person," presumably connected! with ono of the departments of our government. From this we now quote: Cunada continues to be a land of sur prises. Tho friendly protocol of Wash ington wua slgred on May SO, 1S9S, for tho ndjubtment of nil differences between tho United States nnd Canada In a most amicable spirit. Tho Ink of that proto col was only well dry when the provlnco of Ontario discovered a chanco to exhibit her idea of International equity. Ameri can lumbermen had been lnitcd to lake timber limits In that provlnco with tho privilege of cutting logs and exporting them to the United States. Tho pro vincial government, after giving them their leases nr d taking their money Into tho treasury, passed a decreo prohibiting tho export of such logs, with the result of cuuslng some bankruptcies In Michi gan. During tho sessions o tho commis sion tho same peculiar idea of interna tional Justice was exhibited In another province that of British Columbia, This time It wns tho mining interests that were Involved. Tho authorities of that provlnco took tho money of tho American mlneis, who had made the discoveries of gold; allowed them to spend thousands of dollars In constructing n roadway to tho sccno of their interests, and then proceeded to chango their laws to con ftno all such mining privileges to British subjects and British corporations. Ano ther such Instanco of this kind of prac tlco worked a hardship to American nurserymen. They had taken contracts to bupply certain btocks to Canadians, when, under tho pretense ot fear of San Joie ecale, tho Canadian authorities pro hibited any further Importation of nurs ery stock. At tho same time tho Cana dian court held tho Americans Uablo for violation of the contracts which their own laws had caused to be vacated. Proceeding to the main subject of ptesent differences the statement con tinues: Tho Dominion government also seems to i.liaro these peculiar principles of In ternational intercom so in respect to the boundary of Alaska. Years before ttio commission met, United States citizens, without any question or protest against their right so to do, had occupied tho head water of the Lynn canal, and cs tubllshed towns and settlements there. Canada had liver asserted a claim to the region. The Americans had built paths over the passes from tho Lynn eanal bc ond tho mountains, and established communication with tho Yukon by Inter vening lakes nnd streams. This, too, was done without protest or question of thf-lr right to pass over tho mountain summits. Under these circumstances, the United States commlslsoncrs thought It right to withhold such tide-water set tlements from tho arbitrator Jurlsdlc Hon, nnd It was against this limitation that tho Canadian commissioners so ve. hemently protested. Now It seems Can ada Is protesting with equal Uiemenco against arbitration tnlcss the United States shall agree to give them, In any case, the l'jramld Harbor region, to which they never before the meeting of tho commission asserted any right; which they had never occupied with flag, or constable, or a Canadian subject, or een a canoe. Reduced to plainer language, the np penranco of possibilities of great wealth In tho Klondike region of Brit ish Columbia has inspired the authori ties of Ottawa to attempt a skin gamo on Uncle Sam with the object in view of eucherlng that patient Individual out of a great slice of territory, his title to which had never been seriously questioned, but which, being now sud denly valuable, Is to be thrown Into dispute and, if possible, made the sub ject of Jug-handled arbitration. In stead of coming Into the negotiation In a spirit of nelghborllness, in which spirit Ametcan generosity would soon find a satisfactory solution, the Cana dian authorities begin with threats and swagger and Incidentally throw brick bats at American commercial Interests ull along the line, It remains to be seen whether this line of policy will avail. Wo think it will not, i i Even the matrimonial editor Is not free from the unknown correspondent whose communications contain poison. The publisher of a paper at Milwaukee that Is devoted to uniting by advertise ments affinities which may exist miles apart, recently, in good faith It Is presumed, announced that n Miss Hub erts, of Rush, Susquehanna bounty, wns possessed of a large fortune nnd was looking for a hUBband. Miss Rob erts, of course, wns ignorant of tho existence of tho paper or the advertise ment nnd did not begin to realize tho Joke until she had received 200 offers of marriage by letter. Tho caso has been placed In the hands of postal offi cials, who will pursue tho publisher to the extent of the law. Tho Instanco Is not without cheering features, not withstanding the annoyance It hns caused tho parties most deeply Inter ested. It illustrates that peoplo read advertisements In the papers and also demonstrates that In spite of the oft repeated assertion in certain Quarters that marriage is a fallure.there aro still many who arc willing to run the risk when sufficient Inducements nre offered In tho way of collateral. It Is predicted that tho automobllo will boon be used as a farming Imple ment. This Is encouraging, but If the new voh'ole accomplishes the mission of creating better roads the farming public will bo satisfied. Facts in Alaskan Boundary Dispfof? From tho Washington Btar. THE NEGOTIATIONS between tho United States and Canada respect ing vartoi's Issues and particularly that affecting tho boundary dis pute, seem to be deadlocked be yond tho Immediate hope of solution. Wero It not for the lmportanco of an early settlement of tho boundary ques tion this halt In tho proceedings might not bo serious. But tho rapid develop ment of Alaska's mineral wealth and the consequent giowth In importance of the strip of land in controversy forming the southern portion of tho territory ren der It Imperatlvo that some adjustment be haft without further delay to prevent misunderstandings, the loss of property lights, tho confusion of Jurisdictions nnd perhaps conflicts between tho settlers and the authorities. :o: Tho AltEkan boi l.dary dlsputo is ths development of mury years. In 1824 it was of suhlclent Intel est to Great Biltaln and RuFsIa to cause conferences at fat. Petersburg. In later years it has proved even more stubborn of settlement than In tho earlier times. In ISSS-'&O Mr. Dall, of tho geolcgical survey, and Dr. Daw son, un eminent Csradian gaographer, met in this city and discussed tho case ofllclally for their two governments, but without reaching an agreement. Other Joint bodies havo ut successfully under taken to reach a conclusion. Tho dis pute arises partly from tho vagueness ot certain words in the original treaties be tween Oreat Britain md Russia respect ing tho boundary of the southern strip, and partly from the inaccuracy and crudeness of tho surveys of Vancouver, who explored this region In tho courso ot his voyages. It relates exclusively to tho location of the line running generally southward from Mount St. Kltas, north ot which the boundary follows a meri dian. Tho treaty between Great Britain nnd Russia, signed In 1S23, defined tho lino as follows: "Commencing from tho south ernmost point of Prince of Wales Island tho said lino shall ascend to the north along Portland channel, as far as the point of tho continent where It strikes tho tlfty-slxth degree of north latitude; nnd from this last mentioned point the lino shall follow tho summit of the mountains situated parallel to tho coast ns far as tho intersection of tho ono hundred and forty-llrst degree of west longltudo, etc. Whenever tho sum mit of the mountains which cxtcnU In a direction parallel to tho coast shall provo to bo at tho dlstanco of moro than ten marine leagues from tho ocean, tho limit botween the British possessions nnd the line of coast which Is to belong to Russia, shall be formed by a lino parallel to tho coast and which shall never exceed tho distance of ten marine leagues therefrom." o: Four general questions exist ns to the meaning of this language: (1) As to the relation of tho mountain range to the ten-league line, Canada contending that the range ot mountains nearest the sea was meant, the United States contend ing that tho range most nearly conform ing In Its course to tho ten-leaguo line was intended. (2) As to tho relation of the mountains In fact to the mountains conventionally nnd crudely drawn by Vancouver on his chart. (3) As to tho meaning of the term "tho coast," Cun ada contending that the outer edge of tho coast Islands was signified, the United States nsscrtlng thut the outer edge of tho mainland was designated, (4) As to the partition line in Portland Inlet or channel, Canada claiming that tho words used in the treaty meant an other body of water, the controversy over this point involving a territory larger than the state of Delawate. The third of these questions involves two side issues; (a) What was meant by the treaty word "ocean?" (b) Do tho Inlets form part of the coast waters or part of tho territory? The Canadian claim is that "ocean" has no reference, to inlets, but that whenever such Inlets aro less than six miles wide they must bo com ruted as part of the territory and the lino drawn with rcferenco to the point at this width, despite the result, oven though It gives Canada Jurisdiction over the head of tho inlets. The American claim Is In opposition to thl3 lcw. :o: The immediate blockade of tho negotla tlons is caused by nn issue on this very point of inlets. CancUa demands as a condition precedent to an adjustment of the boundary by a tribunal that Pyramid harbor and Lynn canal be yielded to her. These points In large measure control the Chllkoot Pass traffic and virtually all tho other traffic to the Klondike gold rclds by the Inland touto. Naturally, this government refuses to grant so im portant un Item in advance of negotia tions which It expects to result favorably to tho American clnlm to these very uolnts. Whatever the outcotno It Is to be hoped that this country will firmly btand by tho doctrines heretofore laid down and will accept no other settlement than ono based upon the historical nnd geographical traditions and facts. It should also itslst upon a solution of the matter without reference to a foreign power as aibttrator. The case Is capa ble of settlement without recourse to any European tribunal. THE RESPONSIBILITY. From the Washington Post. Tho Hon. John Barrett, who has spent live years In Asia, most of tho time us United States minister to Slam, but who has seen a great deal of China, Japan, and tho Philippines, especially during the past year, has recently returned to his native land. Mr. Barrett la thorough! well Informed as to tho military and po litical situation at Manila. He Is familiar with all the various springs of acton, tho Inside Influences In operation, the exact naturo of tho ferment at work umong the followers ot Agulnaldo. After many months ot close, observation and Intelli gent inquiry, Mr, Barrett Is qualified to itpeak concerning our Philippine problem and to speak with nuthorlty, ;o; Ono proposition laid down by Mr. Bar rett will, wo think, be nocepted every whoro without protest, and that Is tho proposition that nearly all of tho hostility shown by Agulnaldo has been the direct and logical product of the antl-oxpan-slnnlstH In this country. Ho says the utterances In the senate prior to the rati, 'button of tho Paris treaty furnished tlu whole motive power of the Filipino agl- tulon. Thirty thousnnd copies ot one of Senator Hoar's speeches wero circulated among Agulnaldo's people, us were thou, tiunds of other similar deliverances, either In congicss or In Mugwump gatherings, Tho lmportanco of theso harangues reached Hong Kong magnified ten thou snnd fold. An assemblage composed of a corporal's guard of nnncmlc academi cians would bo described ns a great popu lar outpouring ot stalwart nnd vltllo American citizens. Every poor little half-crazy gabbler wns enlarged to the proportions of a leader of American thought nnd action. Every Belf-seoklng dfimugoguo or benighted doctrinaire who railed against our policy was pictured as u giant seven feci high, grand, epic, overwhelming. No wonder Agulnaldo, full of Impish tricks nnd unutterable con ceit, was encouraged to believe that a vast mnjorlty of our people regarded him ns n hero. No wonder ho plotted to re qulto their admiration by putting to death nil tho foreigners in Manila, with out reference to ago or sex. No wonder ho ordered that treacherous attack by night and hoped to end it with a gen oral mnssocrp. Were not tho United States authorities In tho Philippines, civil nnd military, denounced at home as murderers and spoliators? Was ho not stiro of tho sympathy of the country nnd tho support of congress? What conceiva ble effort other than this could such trea sonable agitation be expected to produce upon the scrnl-savago mind? .o: We do not think that Mr. Barrett's hy pothesis can be successfully disputed. To our mind It seems unmistakably clear that the bloodshed and turmoil In Luzon past nnd to come must bo credited di rectly to tho encouragement Agulnaldo has received from this country. NO USB TOPJ THE BREED. Editor of The Tribune Sir: I havo never before contributed a line to your valuable paper but now reque3t a little spaco to express ap proval ot tho sentiments in tho letter ot Mrs. Flora Bennett, printed Tuesday. I was ono of the multitudo who shoul dered muskets in '61 to enforce the law of the land, and left a brother and n, son dead on tho battlefield. Reading Mrs. Bennett's letter stirred my feelings and I want to say "Amen!" When home on furlough with arm in sling I met some of the old bchool of copperheads who said I was a Lincoln hlrollng; since thon I havo never admired the breed. Tho copperheads of today who aro llrlng from the rear on our soldiers in the Philip pines had better hunt cover. May God give them light to see tho error of their ways. Respectfully, Levi Silvlus.

My little boy of eight years was troubled for the last three years with getting up out of bed every night and talking about what happened during the day. At last he got so bad that he opened the windows and went out of the door. I was greatly alarmed about it, tried several remedies and my physician also prescribed for him, but everything failed. At last I tried Ripans Tabules and have found them the best remedy for my boy. Since he has taken the Tabules he never gets out of bed, sleeps all night and I can't thank aRything for il but Ripans Tabules, and I will always keep them on hand. h. new njl pf MnUln)D TU viKi Ttxrtu la a rr carton ( without Kltul inuh,ui..i. drailoraa-toB fits rim.
