THERE is both common sense and
patriotism in this view OF the Behring
sea question. expressed by the Brook
lyn Standard Union:
"There is a difficulty in getting TIN.
case clearly before the American peo-
pie, when one-half of the newspapers,
and much more than half of those that
give the subject serious attention, mis-
represent their own country out OF
sheer spltefullnes toward the Secretary
of State. 1t 10 impossible to have the
Behring sea controversy confined to
consideration of legal quib5les and
lawyer finesse, without doing American
interests injustice and consenting TO an
attitude of humility. We bought all the
rights Russia had IN Alaska. She had
fur seal companies there, and they
were never molested by poachers.
There was no piracy in Russian waters
under the British flag. Now that we
have Alaska, the waters are free to
pirates under the British flag, and the
seal fishery, for which the Government
should get one million dollars year
revenue, is being destroyed. There are
seal fisheries in the Siberian waters and
no poachlng there, not poacher.
Why? Why don't the American rene
gaden and Canadian adventures go
10 0e Siberian side of the sea
and slaughter the the female seals,
the same as they do on the Amer
can eide, Because Russia would smash
the pirstlcal vessel with cannon balls If
necessary and there is no Supreme
Court that would have jurisdiction and
no Mugwnmp newspapers TO float under
the British flag. So far as the case in
court amounts to anything. it means
delay and subterfuge, and the business
translation Is that the poachers can &c
on, the pirates may muster again and
celebrate the ith of July under the
British flag, while the Canada Tories
are backed up by the British empire tc
irritate the sore spot they have found
on the American hide"

The explanation OF the Treasury De-
partment that a tax paid to the General
Government is not license to sell
hquor regardless of State regulations
Of the liquor traffic cleans up great
deal of misunderstanding upon that
question. There have been many usu.
ally well-inforrned people who con-
tended that the tax was license to sell
liquors. in defiance of all law instead OF
merely receipt paid for tax. Ncttleson
has done great service by changing
the form Of the special stamp tax on
sine sale of liquors by causing to he in.
ecribed across the face of the new
stamp the following statement which
fully explains itself.
'This stamp is simply receipt for a
tax paid the government, and does not
exempt the holder from any penalty or
punishment provided for BY the law of
any State for carrying on said business
within such State, and does not author

apce OF such business contrary to the
laws of such State or in places prohibi.

all interests and purposes and is a great
relief to every newspaper Office in the

from the government no amount o.
explanations could convince some peo
pie that this tax was not license and
IS a license superseded and oyerrod,

have never had any doubt of the power
conferred by that instrument upon tn,
