CANADA RESTING US.
At Least That Is the Opinion of the Sec

At Least That Is the Opinion of the Sec
rotary of State.
WASHINGTON, Special Telegram, Nov. IS.
1T is said that Secretary Blaine is not alto
gether pleased with the manner in which
the Canadian government is conducting
itself regarding the various matters that the
two countries are interested in.
The seal fisheries is one of the most diff
cult problems that the state department has
to consider, and as it is shown that the
Canadian poachers have secured about twic
as many seals as the authorized company
which secured the sealing privileges of the
Alaskan islands, there is talk that this COM
pany will throw up it's contract and demand
restitution from the United States
Secretary Blaine has also encountered
some opposition from the Canadians in the
negotiations he has lad with the South
American and VEST Indian governments
relative to reciprocity. Agents have been
travelling through the West Indian islands
and South American countries offering
reciprocity advantages to them in exchange
for the goods produced by the Canadian
have agitated the secretary and they ex-
plain the reasons why he gave voice to the
opinions relative to the advantages which
Canadian railroads secured from the United
States in the matter OF shipment Of goods
in bond to and from this country at the
hearing before Secretary Window last
week.
Secretary Blaine is understood to believe
that Canada through the railroad connec-
tons and by the warship bluff in Behring
sea, is getting the best Of the United States.

Jessie Fremont's Ring.

The following story is told of one of
Missouri's famous characters: Jessie
Benton Fremont was among the
audience in Plymouth church on that
famous occasion before the war when
u slave woman stood on the platform
to be ransomed. Her price in gold
must be paid to her captors or she
must be returned to the land where
human flesh was a chattel. At the
close of the sermon the plates were
passed. Mrs. Fremont had no money,
but hastily pulling from her finger d
gold ring with a B engraved on the
stone. the gift of Colonel Frem ont,
she laid it on the plate. The ring
was recognized. and was sold at
auction for u high figure and present.

Wall, not exactly, Brother Way

as myself are concerned, I'd like ter

''The Lord don't want men' echoed
Uncle Billy in establishment.
''Yas, that's it.: 'relse, if he did. why

NOT A COMBINATION.
No Truth in the Kumor Regarding Mis-
sissippi Valley Lumbermen.

SlSoIpp1 dAley DeT"en
EAU CLAIRE, Special Telegram, Nov. 49,
.Lumbermen here are astounded to learn
from sensational articles with scare heads
in Burlington Qowa) papers that gigantic
trust has been formed in the Mississippi
valley which is to concentrate its opera
. tons at Eau Claire, and from this point
supply Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, the Da-
! kotas and Kansas, put up the price of lum-
Der to extravagant figures, and cause all the
saw mills on, the Mississippi below Eau
claire to shut down or be removed to Eau
Claire.
The cause of all this furore is that the
Eau Claire lunbermen have succeeded in
bringing nearly to crisis their long strug-
gle for adjustment of freight differentiaIs
from Eau Claire to Missouri river points,
and there is reason to believe the interstate
commerce commission will act favorably
10 Eau Claire and give the lumbermen Of
Chippewa valley a lair and equal chance at
the Southwestern markets.
There is no gigantic com bination here, as
stated. The only combination has been
one to raise money and hire attorneys to
get the matter before the commission, and
the down-river lumbermen did the same
thing on their own behalf at their meeting
at KeOkuk last Friday

SE-COVERED COLUSA.
Where Wild Fowl Swarm Like Locusts in the
Plague Of Egypt,

Where Wild Fowl Swarm Like Locusts in the
Plague Of Egypt
nave seen tract of se7enty-five
acres in Colusa county absolutely
covered with wild geese, so densely
packed as to resemble pictures l have
seen of seabird rookeries on some
ocean rock, said a Californian to g.
New York Sun reporter. When they
first come they wax fat on the wheat
stubble and are juicy and sweet flaw
ored for the table, but when the young
winter wheat appears they work on
the green sprouts. This has the effect
OF making their flesh rank, and 70
one in any of the wild goose-ridden
districts will eat of these fowls then.
They are shipped by the thousand, all
the same, to San Francisco and other
markets all winter long, where the
people seem to think the green wheat
fed birds are a great delicacy. But if
the markets could take ten times as
many as they do the number would
be small compared with the thousands
and thousands of the destructive fowls
that are dubbed to death and left
lying on the ground.
Iolo county, where I live, especial
ly in Its northern part. I once thought
beat all creation as a feeding place for
wild geese, for I have seen these flocks
SO thick in the air, going to and from
their favorite pasture, that only few
and-far-between glimpses of the sky
could be obtained for an hour at a
time But when I went into Colusa
county made up my mind that I had
never seen wild geese enough before
to speak Of There is a large expanse
Of barren plain in that county, which
affords an unrivaled place of rendez-
vous for both geese and ducks, and I
thought that all the wild geese that
went forth to all parts of the land,
near and remote, must surely have
their starting place on the Colusa
county barrens. They may be seen
rising up from the plains in swarms
like the locusts Of Egypt and going
forth in all directions to prey on farm
ers. They remain all winter long,
and the wheat the farmers cut in the
harvest they have had to fight the
geese and ducks for months to retain.
There are many large wheat ranches
in these two counties. such as the
eileen ranch, the Bogg ranch and
others. From twelve to twenty-five
herders are employed by each of the
big ranches to patrol the wheat fields
and wage continual warfare against
the geese and ducks. These herders
live in cabins scattered about the
ranches, and tramp about the fields
from daylight until dark and long
after night, too, if the moon is shin
ing, for both geese and ducks feed on
the fields at night if it is moonlight

How many people there are whose dis
