a challenge could be sent for a match
in the summer Of 1907. There is little
reason to believe, however, that the
New York Yacht club is willing TO
accept a challenge under rules widely
different from those that governed the
last trial. Now that the latest cup
defender, the Reliance. has been
turned over to the yacht club by the
syndicate that built her. it is ex-
tremely doubtful If any challenge
would be considered that practically
barred the Reliance from the compe-
tition. Such prohibition would be the
outcome of holding races under the So
called universal rule, which governs
the ordinary club events of our great
est yachting organization 1t is I'M
likely that Sir Thomas Upton would
care to go to the expense and trouble
of building another challenger to meet
the Reliance under the old conditions.
Furthermore. while Sir Thomas Lip
ton is unquestionably popular with the
American people, it would be well if
a new challenger could be found for
the cup. After his three unsuccessful
trials, further competition, with no
other challenge intervening, would
bring the blue ribbon of the sea- down
too close to the status Of a trophy rep
resenting contests between one indi-
vidual in England and a single club
in this country
Really it doesn't matter whether 1t
is the tea man or another. The result
would undoubtedly be the same. But
the Herald is right in suggesting that
a new competitor would make the test
more interesting and significant.

A Welsh county court judge has had

putting an elaborate royal arms above
the mans name and address, but ulti-
mately the latter refused to pay.
The judge looking over a specimen.
observed that for his part he thought
the lion and the unicorn were much
nicer than an old fat pig.
"Oh, WELL" answered the butcher,
perhaps your honor likes TO eat ami
mails like lions and uniforms. I only
kill fat pigs." Verdict for defendant.

The Farmers Institute at Oakway.

The Farmers Institute at Oakway, Au-
gust 9th, was pleasant and profitable
occasion.
The day passed with cloudless sky
and the record of the long continued wet
spell was broken, and with the bright,
beautiful sunshine, large crowd of
sturdy farmers, with their families, be-
gan to assemble at an early hour. All
seemed to be resplendant with bright
smiles on their faces and gave genial
handshake to their acquaintainces. The
ubiquitous candidate was not wanting,
for he was there also, making himself
agreeable, especially to the young ladies,
while his wife and daughters were on the
opposite side of the ground.
AT the appointed hour the Institute
was opened, and DR.. Bracket, professor
of chemistry, made very practical talk
on the analysis of guanos, soils, etc. He
gave much sound counsel to those present
on the use of fertilizers, showing the
constituent parts of plant food necessary
to buy for each crop and how to find the
difference between the relative and COM
mercial values thereof. He was careful
to wage no wtr on manufactures or to
antagonize tie present channels of trade.
His talk made good impression, and
was in such plain words, avoiding all
technical names, that all could compre-
hend the subject-matter of his address.
This last phase characterized the ad-
dresses of each speaker and shows con.
clusively the power of education in the
hands Of those who wish TO elevate their
fellow,plen.

FOR THE TEXT.

ST JOHNS. N. F., October 13.-The state
ments emanating from London to the ef-
feet that the colonial agitation over the
fishery dispute is largely political meets
with contradiction here. Even the Morn
ing News, the opposition organ, today adj
mits that virtually all the leading tory
merchants signed the resolutions adopted at
Thursdays meeting, though it argues that
they compelled the elimination Of reso-
luton approving Premier Bonds policy.
They refused to indorse anything but a
declaration denouncing the modus vivendi
as a violation of the colony's consttu-
tional rights, upon which were all agreed
Regarding the alleged extravagant claims
of the colony. criticism here condemns
the modus vivendi mainly for permitting
Americans to hire men after the Ameri-
can State Department had confessed last
July that they had no right to do so, and
for emaSculating the act of 1905, which has
been eighteen months In force against the
Americans and eighteen years against the
French.
The Telegram. the premiers organ, re-
news this evening its denunciations of the
Downing street bureaucrats as Little Eng
landers" and urges the government to re-
sist the enforcement of the modus vivendi
by every constitutional means at it's dis
posal The Herald demands the publica
ton of the correct text of the modus
vivendi, which is still unknown here. Of
icials blame the imperial governments
delay, and the Herald declares It to be
outrageous that measure. which is of
vital Importance to 1899 fsherfolk Of the
west coast whose livelihood is affected, is
unknown here week after it was signed.
