30 the country with such liberal in

Away mp on The Northern hor1e@'
of Minnesota there is a jog in the
boundary line, and a little stub, Of
territory sticks up iuto Manitoba.
No one knows just how that AiiTtle
piece of territory was ever allowed
to get away from Great Britain: In
fact the story of the treaty which
settled the northern boundary line
seems to be in a great deal Of haze.
There is legend about the depart
ment of state that when the Com
missioners were settling the matter,
they were following the center of
the water course on the northern
boundary. The center OF th" Gre"&
Lakes were followed until the mouth
of Rainy Lake River was reached.
Then the boundary line went up
that river and through the centT" q
Rainy lake. There was water
course flowing into Rainy Lake, IN
fact there is almost q continuous
water course from Rainy Lake to
Lake Winnipeg. If it had been
followed the line would have borne
north to Lake Winnipeg, through
the centre of the lake to the outlet.
and then north and east to Hudson
Bay. This would have cut Great
Britain out of all the northwest
Territory. But the British Com
missioner would not stand for that.
When the line had gone access
Rainy Lake he suggested that it was
time to get back to the 10th par
allel, and our di plomat accepted
the suggestion. When they reach
ed salt water on the Pacific coast,
the British Commissioner insisted
that the line should bear southwark,
and the American Commissioner &C
cepted the proposition. Thus the
United States got no portion of the
rich Vancouver Island, where the
city of Victoria has been built, and
where the English have erected a
great fertilization.

A wave of lawlessness is sweep,
ing over this country. The record
is simply appalling. The remedy
is not to beprovlded by lynching the
guilty-for that is of itself an act
of lawlessness akin to anarchy -
Wise laws, reasonable penalties and
hnerring execution is the best de-
terrent of crime. Let justice be
swift and inportial,. and let the
culprit feel that there will be no
temporizing-tha technicalities and
frivolous defenses will not be toler-
ated, and long step will be taken
in inspiring wholesome respect for
law. And that is what is needed.

WASHINGTON, D. c., August 10.
Midshipman Horace Dyer, of
Minnesota, has been appointed
Lieutenant Commander of the pre-
sent fourth class of the Naval Acad-
envy at Annapolis, Md. The class
numbers 315 and has been divided
in four companies.
The Naval Academy has received
l55 graphophones, each containing
ten records, which are to be used
to instruct the ''middies' in the
French and Spanish languages, one
machine and set of records being
placed in each midshipman's room.
The lessons of the day as printed in
the standard books used in the acad-
envy are repeated by the records, so
that the midshipmen have their eye
and ear educated at the same time
in the language they are studying.
The following changes in the
classified service of the Treasury De-
partment of interest to Minnesotans
are announced: By appointment of

Mr.. A. Nelson, the we'll known
business man of Minneapolis, en-
route from Sweden, is visiting
Washington. He has resided in
this country for 25 years, during
which period he has never found
time to return to the fatherland.
Speaking of his native land, he said:
s'It is substantially the same old
Sweden that lefe, although there
have been a good many changes. l
found great deal of unrest among
the people, mostly because they do
not take kindly to the rigid enfor-
cement of the military laws, which
are modelled somewhat after the
German system, making service in
the army of every male citizen COM
pulsory.
"Then another cause of discon-
tent arises out of the maintenance
of the>state church. The Lutheran
church is the established state relig-
ion. The people are heavily taxed
for it's support, and all other de-
nominations are put in secondary
position. The priests are jealous
of their political ascendancy, and
are bent on maintaining it. Mis-
sionaries of other denominations
are getting chilly treatment, and
often are heavily fined.
"The agitation over the separa-
ton of Norway from Sweden has
about died out, and there is no
doubt of the Scandinavian union
which was seriously threatened a
few years ago. At present there is
a strong emigration from Sweden
to the United, States, and this ex-
odus is more apt to increase than to
diminish, because of the revolt mil
itarism and the church. Few Of the
Swedes who 60 back to. their native

GREAT RUN OF STURGEON.
Fishermen of New Jersey Are Made
Happy by n RecOrd-Break-
ing Catch.

The excitement attending a great
strike of gold in the Klondike could be
no more intense than that which is
lowering over the rude camp of the
sturgeon fishermen, at Bayside, N. j.
The other day it was at its highest ten
sion, for record breaking catch was
made. Not in dozen years has there
been such run of the big, profita Bile
fish, Ones boats crew after another
landed with two or three big ones, and
then moved out into the bay again for
another haul. This was kept up
throughout the day, and when night
fell most of the crews had from 40 to
50 fish.
As roe is fetching more than a dol
lar pound, the fishermen had iubila-
ton
For several years for no known cause.
the run of sturgeon in the Delaware
bay has been gradually falling off, till
many of the fishermen have abandoned
the business and sold out their rigging
and boats. The catch has been so light
that there was no profit in it, and cav
lar gradually rose in price till now it
is worth on the wharves on the camp
$40 per key. As good-sized sturgeon
will yield more than half key of the
product, the cause of the excitement
among the fishermen can be seen at
once

THE HAGUE PEACE COURT.
Answers 20 Two Questions which
VIII Prove Interesting 10 the
General Reader.

"What is the central idea OF the
permanent international peace court
created at The Hague?" "Who origin
sted it?" -,
For ages such a court has been
longed for, TO stop the settling Of
quarrels between nations, without the
wholesale murder and mangling Of
war; the grinding taxation incident
to it, and worse than all, its moral
evils. But no plan of grasp enough
had been devised. At last the idea
Of the chief justices of the supreme
courts of leading nations being the
panel" from which to draw iuries, as
occasion for such courts required, was
hit on, says the New Jersey Gazette.
The idea of needle with the eye in
its point, is the central one of the
sewing machine. So this one, Of chief
justices, as above suggested, rs the
central idea Of The Hague peace court.
This central thought originated with
and was first suggested by Mr..
George May Powell, a geographical
publisher in Philadelphia, residing in
Gloucester county, n. j. He gave it
its first prominent utterance, in a
speech of his, at the great peace con-
gress at Ocean Grove, \. j., July 81.
1894. February "a, 1896, Senator Frye,
OF Maine, presented it as a memorial
drawn and signed by said Powell, in
the United States senate, and II was
referred to The senate committee
on foreign relations. June 3. 1895.
Mr.. Powell presented the plan in a
forceful speech al the MohonF confer
ence; June 30, 1898, senator Frye pre-
sented in the United States senate a
memorial signed by Stephen Field.

WILL DRILL GERMAN ARMY.
Emperor William Follows i'm the
Path of Frederick the Great
in Military Tactics.

Emperor William has suddenly or
dered all commanders and generals in
Germany to attend the maneuvers at
Doeberits to witness some entirely
new evolutions, concerning which the
utmost secrecy is maintained. His
majesty also ordered that no civilian
be allowed within wide radius of the
maneuvering ground. About $4,000 SOL
diers of all arms will be assembled to
demonstrate the practicabiity of
some new methods, for which en-
gineers have been preparing the
ground for many days. The maneu-
vers will continue for two days. 1t
was on the same grounds that Fred
erick the Great carried out the per-
feet drilling of his army which won
the seven years war.
