Is confined to the fisheries. There is moth
ing in it about Tree lumber, salt and coal
Its most important feature is its determi-
nation OF what, If the treaty is ratified,
will be hereafter the law, in reference to
common and exclusive fishing grounds
Canada is to have exclusive rights within
the international limit of the marine
league, There will be no further conten-
ton about the headland to headland right
When bay is ten or more miles wide, the
line of exclusion shall be three miles be-
yonda line drawn across the bay at the ten
mile point. Inside of that line of exclusion
American fishermen may hereafter navi-
gate, butthey cannot fish. They may enter
the harbors for any purpose other than
operations connected with fishing, such as
the purchase of bait, and British vessels
are to be treated in American ports in the
same way, and TO be subject to the same
regulations The right of American yes
sells to enter Canadian ports for fuel,
water, and repairs is conceded Certain
bays, which are specified, are to remain
under the exclusive jurisdiction of Cana
da. There is nothing in the provisions
OF the treaty which makes neces.
sary the removal of the duty on Canadian
fish, but if the duty is removed, then
American fishing. vessels may have per.
mission to purchase bait and provisions,
TO ship crews, and tranship their catch,
in Canadian ports. A commission, to be
appointed, Is to mark the lines OF eXciu
sion. This is the first determination OF
the conflicting points under the treaty OF
1918 and we see no reason why IL should
not be ratified. Our fishermen car moth.
ing about the inshore fisheries, aud al
though the treaty holds them pretty well
out from the shore, by allowing no fish
ing within three miles of the ten-mile
line in bays, they probably can get along
with thar. Whether the privilege of
buying bait and supplies in Canada will
be worth enough, to warrant this country
to accord free trade in fish for it, will be
for the United States to decide.

The anniversary OF Washington, birth

city Wednesday. Flag, were flying from
public buildings aud several private resi-
denCes and the day WAS observed in vari-
Gus ways in the schools. Special exercises
in commemoration of the day were held
at the PomeroY and Pine street primary
schools yesterday afternoon, the little ones
carrying them out in - manner which was
at once credtable 10 themselves and
which showed that though young in years
they possessed a patriotic spirit that will
make them good American citizens. At
the Pine street school there was "A com
position and two Rotations on Washing
ton, the singing of appropriate national
hymns and a calisthenlc exercise.
At the Pomeroy primary department
the school room WAS appropriately decor.
ated with national flags and portrait of
Washington. The programme included
general exercises in which all the pupils
took part, and decldmatiOns, recitatiouS
and songs which were OF an interesting
nature. The programme closed with the
singing OF America.
Attention was called 20 the character ot
the day in other schools and rematSS
We're made by some of the teachers Oh the

Is it not about time to give short rest
to the silly yarn which some OF the Yer
mont papersthave seemed to take great
comfort in circulating, to the effect that
conference of republican editors was held
and "rng' formed during the press eX-
cursion last summer, to boom Mr. harrls
of Brattleboro for the goVernorship NO
such transaction took place, so far rs we
are aware-ahd the editor of this paper
would have been quite likely to know 1t,
if any such thing mad happened. There
was indeed, short conference OF repub-
lican editors. which some suspicious per
son may have supposed to be for the con
coction of some deep political plot; hut II
was simply to consider some propositions
with reference to clubbing arrangements
for the coming campaign which the chair
man of the republican state committee
had to make And so far as we can re-
member no state Office or candidacy fer
any State Office was so much as mentioned
in that conference Mr.. Harris, being an
Old editor ard an honorary member OF
the Press association, aud the orator OF
the occasion, of course joined the eXcuI sion
as he has her similar ones but we IN
dertake to say that that high minded and
honorable gentleman broacheG the subject
OF the governorshlp to no one; that not
over one or two editors had any converse
ton with him in reference to state pol
tics or candidates. and that nothing
like a ring or cabal or plot to bring any
man forward, was formed or attempted. T.
As for the tenant-Governorshlp we
are not aware that it WAS so much as
mentioned to any man, or any man men
toned for the place, during the excursion |
The editors were of for good social .
time, with their wives and friends, and .
were glad to drop the shop, as far AS pos
slble. They doubtless also realized that
it was quite too early to undertake to cut
and dry things, if it had been in their
power to do So In short our contem-
poraries who are going into commissions
over some terrible plot of the editors to
deprive the people of Vermont of their
liberties, are barking up the wrong tree.

The failure in the House of the proposed
constitutional amendment changing the
date of the presidents Inauguration to
April 30 and extending the short session
of Congress for eight weeks must be at
tributed to extreme conservatism. In the
debate every speaker admitted the wis
dom of the change and yet instead OF the
two-thirds vote necessary for its passage
the bill had only one majority. This kills
the project for this year.
