THE CANADIAN FISHERY DISPUTE

THE CANADIAN FISHERY DISPUTE
The seizure by the Canadian author
ities of the fishing schooners, the David j.
Adams and the Ella NJ. Doughty, owned
By citizens Of the United States, is stirring
up much bad blood among the Ne" Fog
landers. The Canadians claim that these
schooners violated the treaty of 1918, which
says that American fishing vessels may
enter Canadian ports for the purpose OF
shelter, repairs, purchase OF wood and OBJ
tanning water" but 'for no other purpose.
These vessels then, were seized for landing
10 buy bsit-though the Captain of the
Adams denies this and says that he had
purchased bait in Maine and had only
landed to visit friends.
The treaty Of 1918 further says: The
United States hereby renounce forever any
liberty hereby enjoyed or claimed by the
inhabitants thereof to take, dry or cure
6sh on or within three marine miles of any
OF the coasts, bays, ports, creeks or har'
bcrs of His Britannia Msiesty's dominion in
America Also the Congress Of the I Aited
States in 1924 iuaugursted principles OF
maritime reciprocity, giving vessels OF every
foreign nation the same privilege 10 Amer
lean ports as American vessels are granted
in the ports Of the foreign nation, the
coastwise trade excepted. This was &C.
csp,ed by Great Britain in 1850.
The New Euglsuders then claim that land
leg in Canadian ports to buy bait is simply
& commercial transaction, allowed in both
the ports of the United States and Canada
by the reciprocity relations agreed to in
1850.
Senator FRYE's amendment to the DING
LSY shipping bill, just passed BY the Sen
ate, while not claimed to be retalistofy
measure, isintended to bring the American
aud CsnRdion fishermen upon the came
t3oriDg, By denying TO the Canadians any
privileges they deny to Americans. But
this doesn't 60 far enough twill merely
keep up contention between the two gov
trnmsnts. A new treaty should be demand
ed, definitely settling not only the ques-
tons ike the one at Issue, but several
others. One of these is the mis-
understanding as to what with
in three marine miles Of
any Of the cossts bays, ports, creeks or
hsrbors of His Britannia majesty" means.
The United States Government has always
claimed that the proper construction OF
,hese words made the three mile limit fol-
low the coast line and did not allow tho
line to be drawn from hesdIand to head.
land, and thus exclude American fisher
men from waters Of arms Of the ocean
a,ore than three miles from land, while the
Canadian Government interprets them to
mean that the line shall be drawn from
besdlaud to headlsnd. These things are
entirely too indefinite and might cause q
great deal of trouble, we're the people Of
North America hot headed race.

How Grant Received the Intelli-
gence of His Nomination.

He was nominated by acclamation
at Chicago in May, 1868. Stanton
carried him the news. was with
Grant at his own headquarters when
the Secretary OF War entered the
room. I had never seen Stanton there
before, but this time he did not send
for Grant. He came hurriedly up the
stairs, painting for breath, lest some
one should p1ecede him. He had re-
ceived the first telegram of the vote,
even in advance of Grant, and as he
rushed in he exclaimed, General, I
have come to tell you that you have
been nominated by the Republican
party for the President Of the United
States" Grant received the inteli-
gence as he did every important
announcement of his life. There was
no shade of exultation Or agitation on
his face, not a flush on his cheek, nor
flash in his eye. l doubt whether
he felt elated, even in those recesses
whera he concealed his inmost emo
tions and thoughts. At that moment
I believe he was sorry to leave his
position in the army, and disliked as
much as ever the prospect OF new
responsibilities and unfamiliar car,ss,

Jessie Fremont.
General Fremont's Memoirs.

Gcner0l tremOnU'S Memoirs.
Jessie was the second daughter. !
went with the eldest of the sisters to
school concert in Georgetown,
where saw her. She was then just IN
the bloom OF her glrlish beauty, and
perfect health effervesced in bright
talk which the pleasure of seeing her
sister drew out. Naturally I was
attracted. She made the effect that
rose of rare color or beautiful pict-
ure would have done.
Her beauty had come far enough
down from English ancestry to be
now in her that American kind which
is made up largely OF mind expressed
in the face; but it still showed it's
Saxon descent.
Her qualities were all womanly,
and education curiously preserved
the down OF modesty which was innate.
There had been no experience of life
to brush away the bloom. She had
inherited from her father his grasp
OF mind, compromising with a tena-
cious memory, but with quickness OF
perception and instant RELAXATION OF
subjects and senses in their complet-
ed extent, which did not belong to
his; and with these warm sympathies
generous pity for human suffering
and a tenderness and sensibility that
made the feeling take the place OF
mind; so compelled was every impulse
to pass through these before it could
reach the surface to find expression.
There was rare union OF intelli-
gence to feel the injury OF events and
submission to them with silence and
discretion, and withal a sweet, and
happy, and forbearing temper, which
has remained proof against the wear.
ing of time. Insensibly and imper
ceptibly in these frequent meetings
there came a glow into my heart
which changed the current and color
!, Of daily Life, and gave beauty tc
common things.

What curiosity she would be in
America, female hod-carrier! She
would soon retire from that business
to attitudinize in museum, and
people would look at her, | know
with greater wonderment than at the
best Niagara crank. But here she is
so little of an attraction that she
doesn't even draw the attention OF
her fellow-workmen. Her femininity
IS certainly not universally f,.scinat-
ing, for she's not very clean. Indeed,
as general thing, she is very dirty.
She seems shade or two darker
than her brother laborers. Some
times she is young and pretty, but
oftenest she is old and hag-featured;
but whether young Or old her general
appearance would not make good
advertisement picture for "some-
body's soap" Her garments usually
consist of a ragged dress, polka
dotted with mud or mortar; an erst-
white apron now beclayed into an.
ugly saffron, and the rough stuff leg
covering twisted in Irvine, and even
dirtier than the apron. Physically
they are very strong, these female
mortar-earriers. In place OF q hod.
they use q long, narrow iron pa
with handles at either end. When
they have filled the pan some. one
helps them TO lift it on their heads,
and then with this excessive load
they go climbing up the perpsndicular
ladders. They mingle with men on
equal terms, and the petticoats and
voices alone indicate to the passer- by
that they belong to the tender sex.

King and Pope in Rome.

A Rome cable dispatch to the New
York Mail and Express says: The
GOODNESS between the Vatican and
Italian government is developing re-
taliatory measures on both sides, and
bears symptoms of speedy active hos
Utilities between the church and state.
The result of the two recent measures
against the government is that the
latter replies to them by q stringent
enforcing of the law against monastie
institutions. These laws have hither-
to been administered with considera-
BILE laxity. Several Jesuit priests
have been forcibly expelled from q
convent at Florence, where they have
taken quarters in contravention of
the law providing that when the in
mates OF convent have fallen below
six in number they shall take no re-
cruits, but shall arrange for the final
evacuation and secularization of the
convent. This law will be applied to
seven other converts which are in the
same condition and which are already
indicated. In one twenty-one young
girls were recently received; these will
be expelled.
The church party is apparently en-
boldened by the result OF a similar
struggle in Germany, and seem inclin-
ed to defy the government and take
the consequences. Their failure is AL
most foregone conclusion because
they have no strong ecclesiastical
party in parliament as they had in
Germany. Further than this, the
liberals, who are sympathizing more
or less with the churchmen, only desire
to effect compromise on sufficient
ly amlcable footing to permit them to
work with the government.

The Northwest Watershed,

It is to one OF these geological
Knight have beens" that venture to
ask the attention of the section to-day
-one which is the more interesting in
this city because upon it depends the
interests-the very existence. l may
say-of Buffalo and it's relation to Chi
cago. Buffalo, is The outlet port Of the
great lakes; Chicago the port at the
head otnavigation. This relationship
is not accidental, but is based on geo.
logical causes that existed before either
city was founded. 1t depends on the
drainage of the lakes. The four upper
lakes are q most remarkabl geological
combination. A large part Of all the
fresh water on the globe is banked up
on a tableland 500 or 600 feet above
the sea-. The drainage, ofcourse, flows
over the dam at the lowest point, Black
Rock, but bya remarkable coincidence
there are two points almost on the
same level, Black Rock and Chicago.
The watershed behind Chicago is but
twelve feet above Lake Mic higan, twen-
yt.fvefeet above Lake Erie. The geol-
ogists of Buffalo know that the land
on both sides Of Niagara River is only
q few feet above the water. Conse-
quently 8 dam twenty-five feet high
across the river at Black Rock would
be sufficient to throw the waters of the
upper lakes into the Mississippi by the
Illinois River. The most beautiful
stream on the continent, the St. Law
renee, would be annihilated or greatly
reduced, and the dirty ditch OF Chicago
would carry the tribute of the great
lakes into the Father Of Waters. But
falo would in that case be at the head
ofnavigation and Chicago thenatura
outlet port. On so slender q thread
did the destinies Of these two cities
hang. e. w Claypole, at Buffalo.

Presented at Court.

Americans go abroad with the de-
termination to see all that is to be
seen. Democrats though they are,
nothing is more attractive to them
than the mysteries OF royalty. They
beset their ministers for adj
mission into the presence-chamber
of kings The American minister to
England might be a happy man, IN
spite OF diplomatic complications.
were it not for the opportunities OF
his countrymen, who insist that he
shall present them to the Queen, and
secure them tickets for royal balls.
Men who at home denounce "the
effete monarchies of Europe" will
wear knee breeches and swords, the
court costume; and their wives will
bare their arms and neck, deck their
heads with tall feathers, and drag a
train three yards long, in order that
they may boast of having been pre-
sented at court.
It will take the lady two hours to
dress; she win sit in her carriage for
two hours more, while it waits in line;
and the rabble, staringin at her coach
windows, comments upon her charms
and laces, and guess at her age and
her jewelry. Once inside the palace,
she waits an hour in the opens -en-
closures formed in the rooms by ropes
drawn across, to prevent pushing
before she is admitted into the throne
room.
Then two gentlemen in waiting seize
the train, which is over her arm, and
spread it behind her. She hands her
card to lord-in-waiting. passes up to-
ward the Lord chamberlain, stands
till he pronounces her name, and then
prostrates herself before the Queen.
Her Majesty extends her hand, with
the back upward, which the lady, re-
ceiving on her own hand, raises to her
lips. An obeisance to every one in the
royal circle is then made, and the gen.
tlemen, catching her train, throw it
over her arm, and she sttlmbles back
ward out Of the room.
She has paid many pounds for her
dress, has spent daysin practicing her
obeisance and the backward step, has
occupied six hours in going and re-
turning from the palace, and stood
just two minutes in royalty's presence.
But when she returns to her Western
home, she can boast that she has been
presented at court.
