There are forty stones in the necklace,

every stone is of the same color, the

arranged in perfectly graded sizes from

desire in London, and, we believe, none in
Washington, to have the two interested ma
lions involved in a quarrel over a rather
trifiing dispute between the Atlantic fisher
men. However, while the treaty Of 1918
remains in force the Canadians have per-
feet right to demand its observance.
"It is not to be supposed that the Canad.
ians will hold valuable rights without some
equivalent. Concessions on both sides are
necessary. The. matter does not concern
England directly, but weare bound to show
firmness in our decision. The Canadians
look to us for support, and they ought to
receive it. We would rather the dispute
