Dufur, DR.. Aliens Victim, Recover,
Ing.

II. Nj. Dufur, the champion wres-
tier. who was recently shot, as it
was first thought, fatally, at White
River Junction. is recovering from
his injuries and will probably in
time feel little or no effect from the
accident which so nearly caused his
death. MI. Dufur is now at the
Mary Hitchcock hospital, connected
with Dartmouth college, at Hanover
where he was removed soon after he
was shot. His face is still IN terri
bic condition, where the bullet went
through, but he is already able to
talk, and will probably recover the
full use of his voice, although it is
doubtful whether he Will be able tc
be about his business for two OF

recent WhooP IRON our NePuolican
friends over the lumber duty.
81 express my unhesltating con-
viction that the intimacy of our re-
lations with Hawaii should be en-
phasized. AS a result of the reci-
procity treaty of 1875, these islands,
on the highway of Oriental and
Australasian traffic, are virtually an
outpost of American commerce and
stepping stone to the growing trade
of the Pacific"
Grover Cleveland made the above
remark while president. Some of
the democrats who are opposing the
ratification of the treaty just now
seem to have forgotten that presi-
dent of their own choosing lookel
at this matter about as President
Mckinley views it.-St. Johnsbury
Republican.
Grover Cleveland looked upon
Hawaii as a country with which
closer trade relations was very de-
sirable, and nothing more. If he
had thought annexation wise step
he would have said so. He cam
not be quoted, we believr, as favor
ing any annexation scheme.
Ex-Gov. Boies has publicly de-
clared his hostility to the rs to I
plank of the Chicago platform.
"For one" he says, 81 do not believe
it possible to succeed upon plat
form that demands the unqualified
free coinage of silver at the ratio of
I6 to with gold. We have fought
that battle, and It is lost. We can
never fight it over under circum-
stances more favorable to ourselves.
If we hope to succeed we must
abandon this extreme demand"
This is an intimation that in order
to succeed the silver forces must
modify their demands. Sin our
next great battle we must win or our
cause is lost" says the ex-governor,
who does not seem to be looking on
the silvery side of things just now.
One more battle tells the story, ac-
cording to his view, and after one
tremendous defeat the chances of
victory must appear somewhat dis
couraging.
The Fish Law-.Test Case to BE Made.
In view OF Judge Thompson's re-
cent decision questioning the right
of the state to stock and close
streams, the circular letter Just is
sued by the state fish commissioners
to fish and game wardens is of IN
terest. In it they say:
In compliance with the Legislative
enactment and petition from the peo-
pie directly interested, the commits
sioners have closed many streams
throughout the state. AS the right
to fish these streams is now ques-
toned, you are advised not to enter
formal complaints to prosecuting
officers or to make arrests, but warn
all fishermen that they are liable to
prosecution and keep Il record of all
cases of violations with dates, names
of witnesses, etc. Meantime test
case will be made and an appeal
taken to the next term of the SUI
preme Court in order to have the
matter decided as promptly as posi-
Bile.
The commissioners do not under
stand that tins doubt exists with ref
erence to ponds and lakes which
have been closed.
AS many of the streams stocked
contain few but small trout, especial
attention should be paid to an en-
forcement of the ''six inch" law
(section 457S).

There will probably be now quickly
constructed a telegraph from Victoria,
B. c., to the Klondike and wagon road
over the difficult and dangerous noun
tain passes. Ere long it is expected that
chain Of government posts will be es-
tablished along the whole route from
the Canadian boundary to the mines.
These will be properly manned with
soldiers and customs officials. They
will also serve as shelter and supply
stations for travellers on the way to the
goldfelds. Meantime it is certain that
there will be a railroad built in course
Of not long time from some point in
British Columbia to the mines. The
first military post to be established will
be at the sixtieth parallel of latitude, 80
miles from the coast. 1t is believed a
narrow gauge railroad can be construct
ed soon over part of this distance. At
any rate, even at the tremendous Chill
koot pass in the mountains, it will not be
impossible to build or tunnel railroad.

lshed civilization developing in two
years in the most northerly region
where such a civilization has yet been
