Brussels, and the contest was won by
q Belgian bird, which covered the 700
miles in fourteen hours. This is at
the rate of fifty miles an hour.
Considering their weight, canary
oirds are favored with greater appe-

cred this fact by weighing a canary.

found that the bird eats thirty-two
times his weight every month. or ac-
tually more than his weight every

GREEDY MACKEREL.. =

Was Managed.
once enjoyed the privilege Of seeing
an army Of mackerel successfully cor.
ner a shoal of small fry in rocky
shallow pool which was q cul de sac
The mackerel swan behind their VIC
tins in serried ranks, a company Of
hungry, determined creatures, intent
upon a gorging feast to which there
need be no limit. They had followed
the fry for miles maybe, merely swal-
lowing one here and one there to keep
their appetites whetted. Now they had
cOrnered them where there was no cs-
cape for their victims. No alert fisher
man on the lookout for just such an
opportunity xas at hand to convert
their triumph and feastng into captivi-
ty and lamentation. They might feast
ut will.
And, ye gods, feast thoy DID. No
one who has not seen it would believe
that the cubic capacity of mackerel
could possibly deal successfully with
the number Of small fish he actually
swallows. The way he conducts the
operation Of feasting is unique. Open
ing his mouth wide, the mackerel darts
in among the small fry, some Of which
are perhaps one-third of his own
length. In an instant one Of these is
to be seen sticking half in and half out
of his mouth. Then the mackerel gives
one gulp. and the victim has disappear
ed. Without moments delay the
process is repeated and repeated so
many times that the spectator cannot
fail to be concerned for the immediate
future Of the particular mackerel he
has watched. Yet nothing happens.
AS for the fry. their helpless anguish
is somewhat heartrending. The whole
shoal Of them boils and churns the wa.
ter in an agony of fear. High into the
air they leap in order to avoid their
voracious enemies. landing themselves
often enough upon the weed covered
rocks which skirt the pool and painting
their lives out there rather than leap
back into the seothing mass of their
harassed companions beneath.-Long

West will be defended by Cochrane &

have Tracy Bangs assist with the

shared by the Indian department and
will doubtless be carried out by suit
able legislation. With regard to the
tariff and money, the present system
of currency is admittedly stable and
wise. and it is pretty we'll admitted,
also. that no sweeping changes in the
tariff will be made, and the presidents
recommendations in this line will
probably meet with the favorable
views Of the majority of the party.
Reciprocity is the policy OF the repub-
lican party, to be carried out with a
wise consideration of home interests.
This is President Roosevelt's idea and
in this he is in harmony with the re-
publican party. The necessity of in
dustrial enterprises is admitted, and
the president is statesman and stu
dent of economics enough to foresee
that legislation aimed at Industrial
enterprises out of retaliation and with
no definite purpose other than to. de
stroy them would be harmful and I'M
wise. At the same time he sees the
evils that grow out Of unrestricted
operations and capitalizations of
trusts and recommends government
edies, publicity. that the people may
know of the trusts as they do of their
national banks. .
An isthmian canal and a Pacific
cable are recommended as necessary
adjuncts to our increasing trade and
growing power. Wise suggestions
are made for the government of Porto
Rico, Hawaii and the Philippines.
Practical suggestions are made both
to capital and labor, as to the best
mean of pe%rpetuating a condition of
harmony, peace and mutual order and
prosperity. A strenuous man, Presi-
dent Roosevelt believes in a good army
and navy as n of the. best means of
insuring peace. A fitting tribute is
paid to President Mckinley, and sens
ible suggestions made to ongress as
to the spirit which should prevail in
amending the immigration laws, to
keep out undesirable immigrants.
With anarchy, theoretical or professed,
the president has no tolerance what
even, and he believes in drastic meas
ures against the evil.
Much of the remainder of the mes
sage is technical, having reference to
the postal and consular service, infor-
nation to congress regarding the con-
dition of affairs in China, and other
matters which custom makes part of
@presidential message. The recon-
m~endations with regard to the re-
enactment OF the Chinese exclusion
law will find favor, particularly with
labor which would otherwise have to
compete with the oriental cheap labor.
The message proves that President
Roosevelt is big enough for the re-
sponsibi1ities that were suddenly
thrust upon him, and that he has a

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE

The message of President Roosevelt
to congress justifes the prophesies
that were made for his practical good
sense, conservatism and plain-speak-'
ing. There is nothing sensational in
it, nothing to bear out the fears of
some timid minds that President
Roosevelt would. be impetuous or lack
in good Judgment and craftsmanship.
It is a long message but we'll worth
reading and considering. Of the
principal portions Of the message the
reading public finds nothing materially
different from the predictions made of
it in the press. President Roosevelt
has been not at all anxious to prepare
his message in secret, and withhold
this tenor of his Suggestions from the
public. He has discussed it's prin-
cipa1 points with members of the cab
met. senators, representatives and
public men. Consequently the public
was informed in a large measure of
the nature Of the presidents views on
many topics and the suggestions he
would make to congress. +.
OF especially western interest Mn
the recommendations with reference
! to government aid in the irrigation of
arid lands, conservation of the forest
supply, and dealing with the Indians.
The president is the first to make re-
commendation for appropriations for
irrigation. He is also a pioneer in
suggesting changes for the govern
ment and management Of the Indians.
His ideas with regard to them are
