flooring Rights.

The London Field, in speaking of moor

courts, and there are so many grants

that the supposed rights. or contested

ings in a tidal channel he is entitled te
use them without molestation by Other
vessels, just the same as ships Of war on
royal yachts use admiralty moorings. say
at Portsmouth, Cowes or Plymouth. But
this is by no means the case. and even if q
yacht owner hires a club mooring, say al
GraveSend or SOuthsea. it is bv no means
certain that he can turn yachts or Other
vessels away from such moorings which
they have occupied during his absence.
But with regard to mooring rights and
simple anchoring rights curious case has
just arisen in the law courts before Nj.
Justice Cave and jury.
"A Mr.. Milton, Il fish salesman of Bill
lingsgate, who owns or hires fishery off
Leigh Essex claimed that he had the
right to prevent fishermen or the owner of
any vessel from using the fOreshore as an
anchorage unless a rent was paid to him
and, as such rent was refused, he pro-
ceeded to remove the mornings which had
been laid down. The Essex Yacht Club
took up the case and opposed the demand
of the lessee of the fishing rights most
strenuously The general result of the
case, as presented to the jury and Justice
Cave, is that perpetual injunction was
granted by the court against the lessee of
the fishing rights interfering in any way
with any kind of vessel which might be
moored or anchored off Leigh.
'The Essex Yacht Club are to be con-
graduated on having so successfully es-
tablished the rights of yachts and other
vessels to moor or anchor on a navigable
river like the Thames but the matter is
still in state of uncertainty as to the
right of laying down moorings or even an
choring on inland lakes and ponds
The situation here as to moorings is
practically the same as in England, and il
there is any law on the subject we have
been unable to find it. The matter is
often discussed along shore, and the gen
eral opinion is that if a mooring is unoc-
cupied any craft that comes along may
make use of it, and the owner if he casts
the craft off and anchors or moors her
elsewhere does it at his own risk. In
point of fact, it is very seldom, if ever,
that difficulty arises on this score Visit.
ing yachtsmen are usually made welcome
to vacant moorings, and are ready to move
if the moorings are needed by the owners;
and the same may be said Of fishermen $
Yacht Club case would no doubt be sim l.
larly decided ON this side of the water.

which rests upon President Mckinley in

Government shall be. recognize fully the
wisdom of his course in desiring ample
time for study of this question i'll the
light of such information as he can obtain
through his own representatives selected
for that purpose 1t is not through any
desire to tempOrize or to delay action
further than the time necessary for this
examination that leads him TO the careful
course which he is pursuing. On that leads
the House of Representatives 70 force him
to act before he has obtained this inform
alton, upon resolution whose adoption
might be fraught with such serious conse-
quences and might sacrifice the lives of
many citizens of his own as we'll as otheI
countries. The people of the L nited
States need not suppose that President
Mckinley is unnecessarily delaying action.
He is not. He fully realizes the gravity
of the situation, the Importance of action,
but he also recognizes the equally mpor-
tant step of making that action Just to his
own country, to the Cubans, and to hui
mainly at large.

Third District rlatters.

1t isn't so easy to appreciate the worth of
representative in Congress until you are
without one. This is certainly the case with
the Third district, for Representative Mill
ken died just at the time when his Republic
can constituents specially needed him.
great deal o f political work is accommodating
for Mr.. Burleigh, and when he comes to
Washington in the latter part of June or the
first of July he will have two or three weeks
of good hard labor before him. Ir the first
place there will be number of post-ofiices
to look after, as Mr.. Milliken did not endorse
papers for some offices where the term will
expire during the present month and during
next month. Then there will be pension
cases to look after. There has always been
considerable pension business in the Third
district and some of it cannot be looked after
by clerk. The appointment Of pension ex-
aiming boards, which have been made in a
number of cases in the other Maine districts,
are hung up in the Third district because
there is no one here with authority to pre-
sent the cases before the pension commits
sioner. Of course. this is not bad news for the
Democratic physicians, but the Republicans
are naturally uneasy. They have no chance
at present to enter the Augusta board, for
salaries there are more than $500 year, but
in Somerset, Waldo and Hancock counties
changes may be expected as soon as Mr.
Bureigh has authority to endorse some can
didates. The application papers of num-
Der of Third district physicians are on file
with Mr.. Willis Wing, having been received
by him from Mr.. Milike en-. They will in
due season be turned over to Mr. Buregh.

The Eyesight of School Children.

The environment of school children,
with regard to its influence upon their
eyes, must be carefully studied. In the
structure of the school building, as few
obstacles to vision as may be should be
permitted; ample illumination, whether
natural or artificial, should be hal from
the left side of the desks; the desks them
selves should be of such sizes as to per-
nit the pupils feet to rest firmly upon
the floor; they should be provided with
comfortable backs and slightly slsnting
tops, the latter placed at such distances
from the eyes as to render sight easy
without the close approximation of books
the blackboards, maps, etc., should be so
situated as to be readily seen; an erect
style of handwriting, less irksome to the
eye than slanting characters, should be
taught; and frequent changes of study or
intervals of intermissi6n should be secur-
ed, so as to avoid the harmful effects of
continuous work of one kind. From

exercise great caution in taking so i'm
portant step as that which is demanded
by many people in the United States, or
that they are unwilling to act until re-
ports are received from their own repre-
sentatives recently dispatched to that is
land. When the work which this Admin
stration has already done in the release
of American citizens from Cuban prisons
and the relief of other Americans there
from starvation, is compared with the at
titude and acts of the last Administration
on this subject, it would seem that the
contrast is decidedly striking.
How impatient and unreasonable has
the American voter suddenly become.
President Mckinley has been less than
three months in office, yet persons who
claim to be intelligent, and even thinking
men, go scolding and growing about be-
cause the new administration has not &C
conlplished more. Can any one of those
who make this complaint point out any
administration in the history of the coun-
try which accomplished as much in as
brief space of time after it's Inaugural
tiono Congress has been called together,
a tariff bill framed, passed by the House,
considered by the Finance Committee of
the Senate, and is now under considera-
ton in that body; prison doors have been
opened in Cuba, and American citizens
released in great numbers; a commission
has been dispatched to Europe to inaugu-
rate and initiate movement in favor of a
bimetallic conference; commissioner has
been dispatched to Cuba to obtain infor-
nation in order that the President may
act intellgently in regard to the matters
of the island; a war Ship has been sent to
Hawaii to protect the American interests
there and open the way for more impoI
tant action regarding that applicant for
membership in the Union; and changes
in the offices are being made as rapidly as
consistent with the conditions under
which the civil service was left by the
preceding administration. If any gentle
man who is inclined to be faulttinding
with the progress OF events under the new
administration can point to any admins
tration in which there was greater
promptness OF action, let him rise and be
heard from; if not. let him cease breed
ing dissatisfaction by complaints.

People who are inclined to criticise the
apparent delay OF Congress and the Ad-
mini stration in regard to Cuba should re-
member that an important step which
might complicate the relations of this
Government with one or more great ma
lions of Europe cannot be undertaken
without careful thought and examination
into the situation. The consular repre-

great extent, be the eyes of the Admins

men of former Administration, it is not
surprising that President Mckinley and

Those foreign countries which are pro-
posing to ''retaliate" by shutting out
American products if our tariff law does
not suit them will think twice before
they enter upon a one sided war of this
sort Austria Hungary, which makes
the loudest talk in that line, took 81, 1870. =
81 worth Of our productions last year
and sold us s., G44, 154 worth of her own
products Argentina, which has also
suggested course of this kind, took So
$40, SAG worth of our products in 1896 and
sold us 1913, 3S5 worth of her own.
Japan took ST. $40, $50 worth of our ex-
ports and sold to people of this county
S25 ,537, 020 of her products. When coun-
tries with those relations realize that a
systematic exclusion of our products from
their markets would result in cutting off
much larger sales of their own products
to people of this country, they will stop
talking about retaliation against the tariff,
Or at least do nothing more than talk.
