TSELESS DIPLOMACY.

The Canadian Minister OF the Fisheries has
again demonstrated the futillty of the American
Governments negotiations respecting the sciz-
ure of various fishing vessels. In the racy
interview tclegraphed from Ottawa for yester-
days TRIBUNE he cmphatically asserted the
right of Her Majesty's colon es to enforce her
treaties with foreign Governments, and either
TO amend or TO modify at their discretion
any imperial statute relating to the provinces.
"If there are infractons of the law as we in
terpret it," he added, eve shall make seiz-
ures." The Treaty Of 1918 is to be brought
to bear against American fishermen whenever
its provisions can he applied under most rig
orous and hostile construction OF the text
When that treaty offers no prcteNt for the
seizure of the Yankee craft, the Customs reg
ulat ions arc to he enforced in the most veX-
atious and haIassing manner. elf American
fishermen" grimly remarks Mr. Foster, "w Ssh
to take the chances of coming into Canad an
waters for the purpose of stealing the fish
theron, they must not complain if they are
caught and treated like ordinary offenders
against the criminal code Of Canada. Being
an American is no protection. neither is it valid
defence for crime committed against the laws
of this country"
Such arrogant talk as this ought to convince
the Administration that diplomatic correspond
ence is Of no avail in defending the commercial
and treaty rights Of Amer lean fishermen. Vig-
orous action is required. The State Depart
mcnt has argued various phases of the fisher
les question with lucidity and logical acumen
during the year. 1t has had strong case,
and with the powerful aid OF Mr. Phelps has
forcibly presented it. But when the argument
is closed. there Is the British Foreign Office
scuttlng behind the Canadian authorities, and
there is Commissioner Foster deianty assert
ing the supremacy of the colonies in all mat
tors of treaty law affecting their own interests.
Negotiations are sheer waste of time when
met by cynical methods Of evasi ion and declaa-
tons Of Canadian independence. The only
practical course for tho Admin stration to adopt
is commercial retaliation against Canadian YES
sells in American ports. Congress has armed it
with this exceptional power. 1t has lacked the
courage requisite for using the weapon in
tended for the defence of American fishermen.
1t has preferred diplomatic methods to aggres-
sive action, and one outrage has followed an
other on the Nova Scotia coast.

Ocean.MOuntainS.

A French geologist, Mons. de Lap
parent, lately called the attention of
the Paris Geological Society TO the
effect gravitation has in heaping up
sea-waters about the land. The con-
tinents are thus situated at the tops
of hills of water; and in crossing the
Atlantic the ship has first to go down
hill, then to cross valley, and finally
to climb another hill. The calcula-
ton has been made that in mid-ocean
the surface may be more than half a
mile (l0O0 metres) below the level il
would have if the continents exerted
no attraction.
