Codfishing is done with dories and
travis. The dories are tlat-bottomed,
sloping sided boats, which tit into one

ing space thereby.
Each dory takes two men, and the
whole crew, except the captain and tha
cook, go off in them every suitable day
and set the twals in the water outward
from the ship, like spokes from the
hub Of wheel. Travis are long lines,

caplin, or squid, that the cod affects
The travis are anchored at each end
baited in the day, left lying over night
and are stripped of their accumulation
of fish next morning, being baited
again when "overhauled."
The fish are taken to the vessels IN
the dories, eviscerated, washed and
sailed. This routine continues until the
bait Is exhausted, and then the vessel
returns home, lands the fish, takes
more bait, and salt and goes out again.
At ST. Pierre her catch is taken In hand
by the graviers and women, who sub
merge it in crates until the salt has
been washed off. Then they scrub each
fish with hard, coarse brush, and pile
them in heaps to drain. This done
they are next spread on the beaches
to dry in the sunlight and air. The
beaches consist of several acres Of
fiat ground, covered with basalt stones
worn round by the motion Of the sea
for ages.
These stony fields surround st.
Pierre, and thousands Of cod are dis
played there on fine day. Every ev-
ening, or If fog or rain threatens, the
fish are gathered UP again and covered
with tarapaulins. The process is re-
peated until the fish are quite dry and
hard. Dry fish are piled In round
stacks, the rest in oblong ones. When
a sufficient quantity to load vessel
is obtained it is packed into her hold
and shipped to market The extent Of
the codfshing of Miquelon and ST.
Pierre may be indicated by the record
Of the catch of those islands in 1902,
which was 72,5OO,O0O pounds.

Senator Allison.
TLincoln Star.1

An Iowa paper fittingly remarks up
onthe good fortune of that state in the
possession of such public character
as William B. Allison. On the other
hand the people of Iowa are to be APP
plauded for their wisdom in making
possible such public career as that of
William B. Allison.
The Senator is now taking an active
part in the campaign in his state, as
he has done every year for almost fiji
ty years. HI ehas now served thirty
one and one-half years continuously in
the United tSates senate, and his pres
ent term doe not expire until March 4,
1909. Before entering the senate he
had served eight consecutive years in
the house of representatives, making a
continuous service of forty years in
congress.
Senator Allison has been tower of
strength for his party in Iowa. He is
a wise man. He has always stood for
reasonableness, for moderation, for
sound judgment and his influence In
saving his party from extreme courses.
from factionand bitterness and In
building it up in strength and harmony
and confidence, is beyond calculation.
There have been as many opportunities
for the party in Iowa as in other stat
es to go upon the rocks of faction and
radical agitation No single influence
has been so great as the wisdom of
William b. Allison.
The republican party of iowa has
now and all the time more brilliant
orators in and out of public life-scores
of them. It has now and all the time
has had scores of able men who could
he creditable figures in the United
States senate. Yet for decades not one
of them has 80 much as dreamed of at
tempting to displace Senator Allison,
and anv one who should propose to do.
so would onlv rnise deietvo LAUGHTER
fro none end of the state to the other
If Senator Allison shor)a survive his
present term, hiding 1909. having then
served thirty-six years In the senate,
he will be unanimously reelected.
The republicans Of Iowa, while
building up vast benef5cent influence
for themselves have placed the ma
ton under obligations, by securing to
it the benefit Of the experience and the
wisdom of Senator Allison thru UNI
interrupted membership In the senate.
