For the first time in history all the eX

pear to have been able to arrive ut a com
mon opinion and agreement as to the facts
regarding the present condition of the seal
herd. II is unnecessary to state that this
tardy conclusion finds tie conditions ex-
act!y as bad as our A merican experts have
all along insisted. Now the matter is turned
over to tte diplomatists, including tina com
plete letter writer, Mr.. John W. Foster.
and the trading will begin. The Canadians
want grret many things in return for any
concession in the matter of seal fishing.
They are the rreediest of all the British
children, and the stingiest. While our
diplomats are working on the Behrin;,
Sea problem, perhaps they might do well
to make few remarks about the uncivil
lied Treatment visited upon A merican fisll-
ermen in Canadian waters and ports, even
when they find themselves compuisorily
there through accident or stress of weather.
There drc some concessions that ought 10
be demanded out of consideration for hu-
