SEAL HUNTING.
New Law Proposed by the State
Department.

WASHINGTON. Feb. GA bill drafted
by the state department, to give effect to
the findings of the Paris tribunal on the
Behring sea fisheries, was introduced
today by Representative McCreary. of
Kentucky, chairman Of the committee
on foreign affairs. 1t provides that no
citizen of the United States or person
belonging to a United States vessel shall
kill or capture outside OF territorial
waters any fur seals in the waters sur
rounding the Pribyloff islands within a
zone of sixty miles, nor during season
from the lst Of May to the 31st of July
OH the high seas outside of that zone and
in that part of the Pacific ocean
including Behring sea. which is
north of the 35th degree of north
latitude and east of the 1SOth degree
OF longitude from Greenwich until it
strikes the water boundary described i'll
article l of the treaty of 1867 between

20 10 Duluth. If Duluth Is off, West
Superior is waiting with open arms to
welcome her. West Superior is IN one
corner OF Wisconsin and offers a market
where North Dakota can preserve all
her identity and reputation for wheat
grades without being subjected to the
grades and inspection of another state.
West Superior offers absolute independ-
ence in this respect. North Dakota is
i'll a position to enjoy commercial free
dom, and reciprocate for favors eX-
tended. The more large cities there are
near and i'll North Dakota the more
valuable is every acre of our farm lands.
1t is to be hoped that in the near future
packing houses. tanneries and WOODEN
mills will be found in St. Paul, Mime
apolis, West Superior or Duluth, as we'll
as mills 10 grind our wheat. and that
the Northwest will stop paying tribute

WESTERN ASSOCIATION
Took No Action Regarding the
Atchison and Southern Pacific
Affairs.

Affairs.
CHICAGO, Feb. %. The Western
Passenger association lines took no ac-
ton today regarding the Atchison-
Southern Pacific troubles, but busted
themselves with the Canadian Pacific
differentials. The Southern Pacific
offered TO abandon its claim for a diff
tercntial il the association lines would
guarantee TO it al amount of Pacific
coast business equal to that done by it
in 1~S92-abont 4 per cent of the total
through business. The Canadian Pa
cltic refused to submit any proposition
whatever. 1t is not at all
likely that the association lines
will accept the proposition of
the Southern Pacific, as it is
simply a guarantee TO the line of about
all Ii business it can hope to get, and
they allowing it a differential on as
much additional business as il can Dos
siblY accumulate. The proposition
struck the association lines as being
somewhat o%ne-sided, but a committee
was appointed to look into the matter
and report by next Tuesday. The cues

pending struggle between the Atchison
and the Southern Pacific is fast becom-
ing the most important preliminary
feature of the row About three months
since, when the Southern Pacific and
Atchison had Il small row in Southern
California, the Southern Pacific
promptly routed all its business via Ell
Paso, and completely shut out the con
nections on the>north.
The Rock Island and the Burlington,
tue w lines most Interested, are fear
full that this process ma be repeated,
and are somewhat doubtful of leaning
upon the Southern Pacific. II they ioin
issues with either side they are likely to
lose heavily on their intermediate bust
ness, and neither one Of them eau afford
10 view that prospect with complaceney.
Ii they decline TO enter the Tow at ali,
the Atchison will probably withdraw
from the association, and the Rock
Island and Burlington stand all excel
lent chance Of being compelled to fight
for what revenue they get from the
through Pacific coast traffic. They are
ill a position to be beautifully whip
sawed whichever way they go The
general sentiment OF the association
lines, however, Is with the Atchison.

A COMMEMORATE PROJECT
WHEREIN ART, EDUCATION, AND
AMUSEMENT ARE HARMONi0USLY
BLENDED.

1t is not always that distributions of
books and pictures can be unreservedly
commended.
1t is often found that a book is selected
for newspaper distribution since it hap
pens to be cheap, because imperfect, or
unstable, or of doubtful literary quail
ity.
And the picture may be weak, dim In
outline, or have a washed-out appear.
ance, owing to the fact that it is from a
plate worn out and unfit for use.
A damaged or badly printed book and
an Indifferent picture are worse than
nothing. since they are a constant eye
sore and a permanent offense against
good taste.
Such possessions are not worth having
even as a gift.
1t is a wise p~recaution, therefore. to
carefully inspect these so-ealled cheap
offerings to ascertain if they are not too
cheap to be worth shelf room.
In contraiistinction to such as these
THE GLOBE points with pride to its dis
tribution of the uneq ualed series en-
titled 'Sights and Scenes of the World"
several numbers of which have already
been seen.
These views are 800 in number, and
are issued in parts of sixteen ca Oh, II
every week.
The photographs have been secured
at q great expense, since to obtain them
it was necessary to visit remote points
in various quarters of the earth.
These photographs once in possession.
it became necessary to prepare a
graphic and interesting description to
accompany each view.
The series, therefore. becomes valua-
bic. both in a pictorial and historical
sense. and time devoted TO its study
could hardly be more %protitabiy or
pleasantly employed
The GLOBE therefore highly COM
mends "!Sights and Scenes of the
World'' TO all OF its readers. for til
series is equally adapted 70 old and
young.
1t also invites an inspection of the
views at its distributing department.
This invitation need not apply to old
readers of the paper. since they well
know that anything offered by THE
GLOBE is well worth the time, trouble
and expense necessary TO obtain it.
Besides this, there is hardly a North
western home in which the views are
not welcomed each week.
But new readers who may want to see
what they are going TO get are asked to
call and look over any one or all Of the
numbers already on view-either one of
which is worth much more than the cost
of the entire series,
For any one of the numbers three
coupons are required. with 10 cents in
stamps or coin.
Further particulars regarding this
may be cleaned from the advertisement
on another page of today's paper.

TICKETS.
An Effort Made to Stop the Nam
ipulation by Scalpers.

An Effort Made to Stop the Man.
ipulation by Scalpers.
CHICAGO, Feb. 22.-The Western Pas
Senger association has taken action re-
garding the sale of mileage tickets that
is considered by those most vitality in
tereSted a step in the direction of STOP
ping the manipulation of tickets by
sealperS and others. A resolution has
been adopted requesting the general
managers to approve of the recon-
mendation of the general passenger
agents that on and after April l the sale
OF 2,O00-mile tickets at $50, with a re-
bate OF $40, or two cents a mile net, be
abolished, and that instead 1,00O-mile
tickets be sold at two and a half cents a
mile, good for bearer, so that on or
more persons may use these tickets on
the same trains. 1t is claimed that the
2,000-mlle tickets sold at two cents a
mile net were much abused through
manipulation by ticket Scalpers. West
OF the Missouri river the lowest ate
made is two and a half cents a
mile, but the use of these tickets
IS confined to the individual
whose name is signed to the contract.
1t is now proposed to do away with this
individual nOn-transferabIe feature of
the LOCO mile tickets sold at two and a
half cents a mile. and make them good
for bearer, or, in other words, that they
may be used by one or more per-
sons, and by local as we'll as through
passengers. 1t will give the farmer and
country merchant, who do not travel so
often, the same opportunity as afforded
manufacturers and drummerS of pur-
chasing a mileage ticket for S25 and
using it locally within their district.
There has been much grumbIing on the
part of the granger element and the
country merchants because they were
unable to secure a LOCO mile ticket at
the same rate per mile as the heavy
shippers and travellers paid.
By the change proposed the railroad
people say they will be able to get a
reasonable rate for a transferable
ticket, and at the same time put a stop
to the abuse TO which the non-transter-
able 1000 mile tickets were subjected.
