FISHERIES AND RECIPROCITY.

The Anglo-Amercan Joint High Commission

Ii las taken up the questions of the North At
lantic fisheries and commercial reciprocity.
They are two Of the most important of all, and
are likely 10 provoke prolonged discussion
which will end in some radical action. They
are In n measure connected. for the Canadian
proposal Is that the fisheries dispute shall be
solved by the admission of Canadian fish 10 the
United States markets free of duty. They also
involve some other questions Of much impor-
lance
The fisheries dispute has it's origin in the
Treaty of 1878. Under that instrument, as in
terprcted by Great Britain. United States fisher
men have no right TO land their fish or TO pur-
chase bait in Canadian ports, nor indeed TO en-
ter those ports except for wood. water. shelter
and repairs" But United States fishermen mr.
gently need free entrance TO Canadian ports.
The successful prosecution Of their calling de-
ponds upon their doing So Accordingly nu-
morous attempts have been made 10 secure
some permanent and equitable arrangement
whereby they may do so. OF course, there
must be quid pro quo. What the Canadians
want IS free fsh"-that is, the abolition OF
all duties on Canadian fish entering United
States markets The New England fishermen

sdered most carefully. Certainly II Is not to

tion but II is great enough TO command con-
s,deration.
The question of reciprocity in trade with
Canada is seriously complicated by the doings
of the jubilee year. At that time Canada made
TO the mother country the splendid Jubilee gift
of q preferential tariff, under which British i'm
ports have an advantage Of % per cent over
those from this country in the Canadian custom
houses. The operation of that preferential rate
has already been greatly 10 our loss. British
goods are supplanting United States goods In
the Canadian market. There U.s. Of course, no
ground for complaint against Canada therefor.

such a tariff. 1t Is a good thing for her and

Two thoughts are suggested to me.
The first is regarding the possibilities

influence of Hinduism and of habit.
When, in place Of slavishly initiating
past achievements, they give full play
to their own constructive genius, intel
lectually and spiritually. we may con-
fidently expect a creative era, which
will surpass in sound results the great
est epochs of their history.
The second is regarding our relations
to this race. We are apt to think of
ourselves and our resources as i'm
measurably beyond those of the people
of India. We do so partly from pure
ignorance, partly because their habits
and ideas are so far removed from our
own. We must remember that they
value us quite as lightly, and are
equally as satisfied with their own pc
culiar developments. When they are
stimulated by western progress to a
progress Of their own, it may easily be
true that we shall become as truly in
debted to them as they have been to
the political and religious pioneers
from the west for the last one hundred
years.

But it should be remembered that
these results are largely speculative,
and may be very much influenced by
the disposition of weights and internal
arrangements of the vessel. Thus in
some Italian experiments with a model
of a ship with a triple bottom seventy
five pounds of gun cotton exploded in
contact broke through two of them,
and when the space between the two
inner ones was filled with coal only the
outer bottom was injured.
Comparing dynamite with gun cot
ton, the two explosives with which we
are most familiar, it may be said that
dynamite loses strength by the evapo-
ration of the nitro glycerine. Pure gun
cotton, whether wet or dry, is unaffect-
ed by changes of temperature. Gun
cotton, as well as forcite and gelatine
dynamite, are unaffected by water, but
dynamite loses per cent of it's over
when drowned in water. Nitro glycer-
inc is insoluble in water, so that most
of the compounds are uninjured by be-
ing submerged. With regard to safety
in handling and transportation, dyna-
mite and nitro glycerine are the most
sensitive. They should not be exposed
to tropical sun. Gun cotton is more
liable to defamation by influence when
dry than when wet and dynamite when
compressed than when loose. Buoyant
mines when planted, if filed with 500
pounds of blasting gelatine, need to be
spaced every 456 feet: gun cotton mines
require 321 feet, while gunpowder re-
quires 100 feet.
Summing up-and here we are quot
ing from Lieutenant Simpson-we find
blasting gelatine and gun cotton as the
two explosives best fulfilling all the re-
quirements, for they are the ones gen.
orally in use for submarine work.
Blasting gelatine shows a superiority
with regard to strength, shattering eff
fects, Elasticity and specific gravity,
but gun cotton, from its stability, safe
ty and capability of exerting all its full
force even when confined simply in a
net, combined with its high standing in
the other requirements, all tend to
make it the best high explosive for ma
val use.-Boston Herald.
