Settled at Last.

The Venezuelan affair has at last
been brought TO a close. The protocols
which were signed by the allies provide
as follows:
All payments shall L in monthly in
stallments.
II Venezuela defaults in payment for
thirty DAYS Belgium shall administer
the custom houses and distribute the
receipts.
The claims of all countries shall be
decided by mixed commissions.
The Hague court 10 consider preferen-
tial payment shall consist of three mem
bers. appointed by the president OF That
tribunal.
There must be no suggestions as To
selections by any interested power.
The mixed commission shall consist
of a representative of each country rep
resented. If these cannot agree a third
member is TO be named hy the king OF
Spain or the president of France.
The mixed commission shall meet m
Caracas.
An ships taken by the allies shall be
returned to Venezuela.
Venezuela shall not make a counter
demand for such ships as we're de
stroyed.
The end OF the controversy Is victo-
~ for Minister Bowen. of the United
States. who displayed good Judgment.
Yet it can be seen plainly the want on
part of the present administration OF a
firm and active spirit that was pre-
viously shown when England was sent
trembling away from the Venezuelan
shores. The present controversy leaves
the Monroe doctrine under a cloud oil
indecision and indefiniteness. There
are those who are urging that the Mon
roe doctrine VIII have TO be abandoned
or that the United States must extend
its control and protection over the South
American republics.
The diplomacy of the allies has forced
the administration 10 concede that wa
may be waged Tor the COLLECTION OF deb
upon the South American countries
This may prove to be a dangerous ano
fatal concession.

man, but IL Hendrick continues TO re-
main against a primary. the Courier
will have to be against him for we favor
a primary above all candidates. The
Republican papers are trying TO show
that the committees figures on the cost
of the primary which is $4,000 are to
low and it will cost twice that amount.
That is erroneous and the primary WIZ
hardly cost the $4,000 as there are Loyal
Democrats everywhere who will offer
heir service free as election officers for
the sake Of having a primary. We IRE
sure Fulton county men will serve free
as there are no more loyal Democrats
anyw here than here. The editor Of the
Courier Will serve and has the promise
of seven other Democrats who are glad
to serve the people and party IN that
way.

CATCHING CRABS FOR MARKET.
Ingenious Method by which Large

Those who crab for market on the

genious method of catching crabs in
quantities. says Country Life in Amer

grounds. for at intervals Of TWO feet
along the entire length OF the rope he
has UNFINISHED it and inserted between
the stands short pieces of salted cells.
The torsion of the stands holds them

When the other end is reached he an

Alongside of him is his landing net.

the buoy and stone. and hand over

When a crab. clinging to its refresh

into the boat. The wary crab may
loosen his hold and dive for the bot

terity that his net is swifter than the
crab. One seldom gets away. Several
hundreds of crabs are often taken al
each overhauling of the rope. When he
has caught all he wants. he packs then
in barrels and sells them 10 local deal

WHY THEY TATTOO.
Strange belief OF Women I'm thu
LaughIan Islands. Near
New GuineA.

In several islands Of the lndo-Pacific
region, says Prof. Thilenius, who
has been closely studying the subject
for some months. the belief prevails
that persons who are tattooed have a
much better chance Of getting safely
into the next world than those who are
not tattooed, says the New York Her
aid
As a typical example, he cites the
ease of the women in the Laughlan Is
lands. a small group east of the south
ern end of New Guinea. These women
tattoo the greater part Of their bodies
with angled designs, but never fail TO
tattoo concentric circles on their legs.
They believe that between the
Laughlan islands and the island Of
Vatum, IN the Trobriand group. to
which their souls should go. there is a
great snake over which they must pass.
The snake asks each soul for her tat
,saoing. and the soul takes it off and
ss1ves ft-~-=<s<I~a~tss. s--s.<a covers itself
with IT. The snake then becomes
broad and fat, and the soul passes over
L as over bridge.
If, however, the soul is not tattooed.
he snake shrinks,. and the soul falls
INTO the sea and cannot reach the bles-
ed sanctuary in Vatum. Moreover,
worse still. these wretched souls are
sfaightway changed into fish.
This strange belief has prevailed in
tie Laughlan islands for a long time.
and there IS no evidence thatit is dying

John is stin Talking.

John is Still Talking.
We notice in a Louisville Republican
newspaper that John X. Hendrick has
been interviewed again aud is still tab
ing about the primary. He boldly de
clares again that there will positively
not be primary election May 3. That
HE aud his friends will prevent it, and
that there will be bomb dropped in
the opposition camp in ten days. Well
John. the primary has been settled long
ago and everything is getting in readi
ness for the selection of Democratic
nominees May 8, all over the State, and
If you are not willing TO submit your
claim before the people you had Just as
well begin treking homeward. for the
primary will be held whether you run
or not, and the bomb may be dropped
the other way May 3, and again 1t is
not nice to be always quoted by Re.
publican paper. if you are a Democrat
the Democratic papers will quote you.
Col. Hendrick is candidate for the
Democratic nomination for Governor OF
Kentucky, and being a First district
man started out IN the race with fair
~ good showing, but like many other
politicians he is gifted with the too
much.talk habit and there are cases on
record where man has talked himself
TO death. Now honestly we don't be
lieve John really means to talk SO
much. but he is being pushed along by
few fellows at Frankfort and other
places who wanted to dictate the man

and being turned down by the present
