How would a law do, punishing

IN tlie event, of a war bntyrotiii the
United-States and Great Britain, the
States along the Canadian lice,
would probably be unpleasantly
near the seat of action for the land
forces. General Brackenburv, of
tjie British army, in commenting
upon such a probability, well says
that, "war between Great Britain
and the United States was a calamity
not to be contemplated without the
most serious provocation but that in
the event of a war an invasion of
Canada would uot be a holiday cam
paign." The trouble over the fishery
question, the ambition of leading
statesmen to acquire the Canadian
territory, and latterly the sending of
British naval squadrons to the
Pacific coast of North America to
defend vessels sailing under the
English flag against American at
tack. all portend to raise a cloud
which may eventually be dispelled at
the close of a serious war. There
are very many American Canadians
in the Northwest, whose interests
and sympathies are to a degree cen
tered around their old home while
we would not for a moment question
the loyalty of anyone living under
the protection of our flag, yet we
cite this to show how deplorable
such a war would be, and why care
ful and wise diplomacy should be
used to avoid such a calamity.
Should such a war occur it could
only terminate either with the sub
jijgation and acquisition of Canada
to the JJnited States, or a defeat of
the. Union arms—a lesson which ho
American has ever yet learned.
THE wool question is every year
becoming more and more one of
deep interest to the farmers of North
Dakota, because of the rapid increase
in that industry. A circular issued

the subject that are well worth
considering: "'The Secretary of State,
Hon. James G.Blaine,recommended
an amendment to the Tariff Bill
admitting South Americau wool free
of duty in exchange for the pro
ducts of the United States, and
Senator Hale, of Maine, has offered
sycli an amendment. This was
probably done undjr the wrong im
pression that South American wools
were only carpet wools. In point
of facts the shipments of wool,
mainly of Merino blood, from the
River Platte district alone, exceeds
375,000,000 pounds annually, which
is greater than the whole clip of the
United States by 125,000,000 pounds.
This does not take into account the
mixed grades of South American car
pet wools and clothing wools from
other sections, which are estimated
at fully 200,000,000 pounds more.
The admission of so much free wool
would swamp the American wool
market. President Harrison, in
commenting on Secretary Blaine's
proposal has pointed to the fact that
we already admit free of duty 87
per cent, of the imports from South
America.,, and that it is not reason
able to suppose the admission with
out duty of the remaining 13 per
cent, (sugar aud wool) would lead
to any considerable increase over
present sales of the products of the
United States to those nations.
Ther.e is no cause for alarm in this
Blaine-Hale amendment proposing
to admit South American wool free
of duty, as it will probably be with
drawn by Seiia,tor Hale when its ef.
feet upon the wool-growers of the
United States is better understood.

unwashed fleeces free from tag

inferior port-ions that ape usually
rolled up inside of American fleeces.
This same wool, after it lias passed
the Custom House, is worth 30c per
pound, which illustrates the present
difference in value between free
jvuyl and projected wool."

present state of affairs in re­
gard to the liquorquestion is a most
perplexing one. Temperance people
are in a quandary, while the untaxed
original package shops are being,

the yirot'jctiu r'n: Supreino Court

violation o£ the State lav.\ Jt is a
queer jumbling oi laws that will
giye a man protection under the con
stitution of the Union, permitting
him to violate the laws of the State,
and, making faces at the majority
who made such laws, ask them
what are you going to do about it
No one will pretend to argue thp,t
the State has power over the laws
enacted by Congress. The shortest
and only way we see out of the di
lemma ig for Congress to enact new
laws covering the case. That the
prohibition law can regulate inter
state traffic would be folly to pre,
sume, but it seepis to us that when
once within the borders of our State
there should be some way to control
the disposal of articles which our
laws prohibit being sold. The point
was raised at Aberdeen during the
trial of parties arrested for selling
original packages, that Congress had
passed upon the question by admit
ing the state with a prohibition
clayse in its constitution. Many
attorneys claim that the point is not
well taken, while some of the lead
ing attorneys of the State support
the position taken by District Attor
ney Taubman. There will be live
times and interesting deyelop
ments until the question is settled
either one way or the other.
