CANADIAN DISPUTES SETTLED.

Those residents OF Vermont who have
been disturbed during the past few weeks
by Developments in relation to the viola
lion OF the fishery laws in MissisQuoi
Nay will be interested in an announcement
made in connection with the statement
the governor general OF Canada in the
American metropolis.
It is stated that Lord and Lady Grey
will he the guests of Mr.. and Mrs. Nor
ris X. Jesup at their home in Madison
avenue on their visit to New York the
week after next to attend the banquet
of the Pilgrims at the Waldorf-Astoria,
Saturday, March 81. in honor Of the gov
ernor- GENERAL The secretary of state
Elhu Root, Will ne Csle of the principal
speakers at the banquet. and will, it is
understood. confirm thc announcement
by the earl that all questions in dispute
between the limited States and Canada
on the point OF conclusion, and are OK
pected TO he brought to a successful
termination within the next eight or ten
days.
Among the issues in question are the
protection OF the fshcric. in international
waters, including the Great Lakes and
the ST. Lawrence and Lake Champlain
waters. the fur seal fisheries dispute, the
protection OF the Niagara Falls and regu-
lation OF the water TO be taken for power,
the Newfoundland fisheries and several
minor boundary disputes.
Inasmuch as the other speakers he
side Lord Grey and the secretary of
state will include Gov. Higgins and form
or Ambassadors Choate and Porter. 1t is
evident that the banquet to the governor
general of canada will take on unusual
Importance from an international stand
point. For the sake Of all concerned, il
Is to be hoped that the fishery troubles
as well as various other sources of con-
troversy may be removed, and that we
may continue to dwell side by side with
Our Canadian cousins in harmony, il no,
In unity.

NEW IDEAS FOR BRIDESMAIDS.

Something entirely original for the
bridesmaids to carry is the shower muff
II is quite the latest substitute for the
shower boquet. And by the way it is
sicr and more graceful TO carry. The
muhs are big and are masses of white
tulle. From the lower part OF the muff
hang long streamcrs Of narrow white satin
ribbon, and to each stroamer a spray of
lily of the valley is attached. These nuns
are also made up in a downy marahout,
and If ono wishes, they may be- used TO
introduce the color note in the brides
maids costumes. Faint lavender muffs
either in tullc or marabout would look not
only exquisite but decidedly unique if
sprays of pale pink and lavender sweet
peas were used to give the shower of-
feet. Pink muffs with little pink rosebuds
and a spray of green leaVes tied to the
ribbons would also he fetching.
a very now way for the maid OF honor
to carry her flowers is 10 have them tied
10 n long staff which she should use a a
walking stick.-Cirace Margaret Gould in
Womans Home Companion for April.

AN ALTERNATING CURRENT IN
POLITICS.

In the subcrnatorial campaign OF 1909
Percival W. Clement became a candidate
for governor, and right here it may be
we'll to recall little political history. 1t
Is no secret that when the gentleman from
Eutlard first entered the field there was
cooperation between the managers of Nc
Culloush's campaign and Mr.. Clement. the
latter having ostensibly entered the race
merely for the purpose OF count era c ing
proctor's influence in Rutland county and
elsewhere. As the contest progressed the
Mccullough managers pushed for the cleo
ton of Delegates in towns where they
had the best chance OF success and in
towns where Clement had strength he
was given free play by them to secure
delegates. One OF the Mccullough man
ayers is authority for the statement that
finally after Clement had secured a num-
Der of delegates in the southeastern part
OF the State the latter, with his peculiar
sense OF political honor. turned on his
ally and said in substance, Now | am
going in and beat you.
From the outset Mr.. Clement posed as
a man utterly without political ambition,
whose only consuming desire was to serve
d great cause. First he stood as the
champion OF local option and the referen-
dun. The State republican convention
at Montpelier, to which ne was entirely
willing ia submit his chances, adopted "A
platform embodyng practically all that
lie had demanded but the votes showed
that, following the retirement of Proctor
IN favor OF the Bennington candidate, q
majority Of the delegates favored McCul-
Tough
There is probably not an intelligent man
in Vermont who doubts that Clement
would have accepted nomination at the
hands of that convention. in which he
submitted to successive ballots, and claim
ed it as his own, but when he found that

HIS PRIZE.

A Pittsburg widower, while away from
home on business trip, met and mar
rled lady who, though famed for her
goodness of heart would be spoken of
even by her friends as "plaln." The
man believed that she would be a kind
mother to his two children, however,
and as she was also possessed af q fair
amount OF this worlds goods, was not
inclined to expect the beauty Of the
peach in "a potato.
After his marriage, he telegraph ia
the eldest of the children, a girl of ff-
teen:
"l1ave won prize. Am married viii

When the bride and groom arrived
the children were watching al the door
and at sight of their future mother gave
a little gasp of CONSERVATION.
The second child, IA boy. nudged his
sister and whispered:

consolation prize that pa got" -Harper'S

There seems to be disposition TO
favor a short State campaign in YER
mont this year so far as the public is
concerned, and in view of the period
of strenuous politics through which the
voters of Vermont have passed since
the beginning of 1902 it is perhaps not
strange that the average man should
feel that it is too early to begin shout
ing on the question OF the state ticket.
There IS no rule against anybody
yhouting IL no wants to do So how
ever. provided he can induce people
to stop to listen to him.
