Gov. Hoch. of Kansas, has met his
Waterloo. Seeking in vain to find
something else to do the other day.
he decided to stop wild west"
show, and issued orders accordingly.
The district attorney reported that
there was no law against 1t, and was
promptly ordered to stretch whatever
law there was. Then the attorney
sent word back that there was moth
ing doing in the rubber line-and
the law was not stretched and the
wild west show continues to exhilar-
ate its usual spectators. Some COVER
nors have very little power, after
all.

DOING ONES DUTY.

There is great deal of difference
between the fearless official who
merely demonstrates his prowess by
"butting in" to use the slang ver-
nacular, and one who uses good
judgment in the interest of his peo-
pie by overthrowing the greater
evils.
President Roosevelt is a states
man who stands for all that is fair
and just, and is not afraid to show
his colors. Governor Hanly, of In
diana. is another. In regard to the
Hanly gave utterance to the follow
ing sentiments.
THE law of Indiana was violated
by the auditor of state. David Sher-
rick, the incumbent, has for years
been my personal friend, but II my
own brother had been auditor my
action would have been the same. II
the time ever comes when my per-
sonal friendships or interests are to
stand in the way of my doing my
full duty by the people who have
honored me by voting me into the
highest Office in their power. then |
will be ready to relinquish the gov
ernorship."
And those who know Gov. Hanly
are confident that he means exactly
what he says.
III the principle thus enunciated by
lndiana's governor were enforced
everywhere, the people would get
much better public service.
Personal friendship too often
stands in the way of official duty.

board used solely for the fishery and occupied only
by fishing stations. A few miles back from the
shore lies the untraversed wilderness, extending
away for hundreds of miles, with only wandering
Indians or trappers to awake the echoes of the
primeval sotudes
To reach Labrador the visitors must take ship.
As the coast-ne is neared the outlook is most
depressing The naked mountains, grim and gaunt;
the barren foreground, stretching to the surf the
broken, chaotic coast-line the jagged islets, like
pinnacles, which sentinel the shore and the cold,
storm tossed waves-combine to form forbidding
aspect rarely equa1ed The seaboard stretches six
hundred miles from Bellesle to Hudson Straits, and
every few miles there is harbor as if Nature, in
fashioning the land had provided it with ample
shelter ports for the hardy fishers who would
gather there.
Each harbor has few families of "liv-yeres"
Qive-heres, or permanent settlers) to distinguish
them from nomadic Newfoundland cod who
frequent the coast every summer. These "hv:
yeres" number about four thousand in all; in the
far north there two thousand Eskimos
and many Montaignas Indians and half
breeds through the interior, making periodical
trips to the coast to barter their peltries at the
Hudson Bay factories. The foregoing comprise
Labradors whole resident population-tent thousand
beings for whom life has few compensations. Lab
rador however, is the of the strangest annual
migration known to the world About twenty
thousand Northumberland women and chill
dren-with all their household possessions, sail
there every spring in quest of cod returning again
in the fall after the fishery has ended
The sandy banks off the coast the home of
this lordly prize the king of eating fishes and in the
quiet bays nearby the cod-catchers locate. Fully
a thousand schooners pass north each year to
traw these waters. This fishery is all important to
the Newfoundlanders: it represents food, clothing
and material comforts. If it yields good harvest
there is widespread prosperity but if it fails there
is absolute misery In this latter fact all too often
is epitomized the history of this great, lone land
Fishing is virtually the only occupation of the
voyagers to these shores; and a bad fishery is a
national disaster
His schooner and fishing gear with his room"
on Labrador and his home island, constitute
the wealth of a Newfoundland fisherman. He
builds the vessel himself rigs and outfits her. sails
her to and from Labrador, and constitutes her his
floating home for the four summer months. In
her hold salt the catch and provisions
maintain the crew. her decks Uttered with inn
pedimenta and her iving-rooms crowded with
human beings who make up her personnel All
