The admirable address with which
Secretary Root opened the peace con-
ference Of the Central American re-
publics Is receiving commentator on
all sides. Mr.. Root again emphasized
the necessity OF the policy which he
regards as the keystone OF interna-
'tional agreements. He insists that
tsthe mere declaration of general
principles, the mere agreement upon
lines OF policy and conduct, are Of
little value unless there be definite
and practical methods provided ny
which the responsibility to keep the
agreement may be fixed upon some
definite person, and the public senti-
ment OF Central America be brought
to bear to prevent its violation. This
argument, 1t is maintained, is sound,
and is especially applicable to the
conditions which obtain In Central
America, where, as Secretary Root 30
ably sets forth, only the selfish ambi
lions OF individuals prevent these
people from living together in har-
mony, and where is found every tie of
sentiment, relationship, religion and
aspiration to weld these republic to-
sRether.

Herring Catch on Bagaducc River.
HAgBoRsyDE, Scv. IS. 1907.
To the E.lftor II The ABaertcan:
There has been large catch Of herring
On Eas Bsgaduce riger this fall, thousands
Of bushels being caught daily, and at
TINES nsc-e than thirty sail from various
paris Of the coas. OF Maine have been
there waiting for load.
To the thinking person, the result OF
such slaughter in such q small place
fabout one mile wide and few miles long,
can have but one result-the extermina-
tion Of the herring at that place. It is a
curious fact that herring annually return
to the place where they were Matched, and
on the Bagaduce the school has been
growing larger each year; also, the cod,
paddock and hake have made their ap-
pearance in increasing numbers as their
food, the herring, increased. This year
saw the best fishing in Penobscot bay
since the destruction Of the porgy or mem
baden about forty years ago. During the
'70's and sos, there was absolutely no
deep-ses fishing in Penobscot bay, as the
food had been destroyed in these waters.
Good fishing means much to the people
consumers, while determination means a
serious loss to all. 1t is useless to argue
that the herring are very prolific fish
and can stand such inroads. II such BE-
the case, why are vessels here from places
where formerly herring we're in great
nrn1bers, as at Eastport and Lubec?
Perhaps it would not be out OF place to
cite our lobster fishery. IN spite of re-
porto 10 the contrary, the lobster catches
arc yearly growing less, and unless some
more restrictive measures are adopted, the
lobster will be as extinct as the dodo.
Even now, the lobster is out of the reach
of the poor.
Thirty or forty years ago the maekerel
visited our shores every summer in inn
mense quantities, furnishing employment
and food for Thousands Of people; now
they have entirely disappeared, and are
food only for the rich.
The greed of man, through the agency
Of the seine, is responsible for this, and it
Ia interesting to note that the large Arms
who sent out the seiners not only ruined
the fishery, but every one Of them has
gone bankrupt.
Years ago the porgy was large source
OF revenue to the people along the coast,
and at times the bays and inlets were
swarming with these fish. As they were .
fsh food, cod, paddock and hake were
also plentiful, but in few years the steam
seiners ruthlessly destroyed this excellent
Ash, and thousands Of people found their
occupation gone. -
Our government is trying to help the
fishermen by the lobster and cod hatch
cries, yet the fishermen must do good
part Of this good work themselves. With
wise legislation and enforcement, there
will be fish for all ages, and let rs hope
that mans better nature will prevail and
help preserve these good gifts Of God to
man. @.

Future Aerial Navluation.

If there is any connection between
ballooning and aerial navigation 1t Ia
remote. The airship of the future
probably will not have even speak
ing acquaintance with the clumsy gas
bag that now is a necessary part of
the apparatus by the aid of which
aeronauts rise from the earth and &C.
complish brief flights. Some day scien-
lists will conquer the real theory OF
flight. Much progress has been made
in that direction already through
study of the mechanical principle op-
Grated by birds. Once those princi-
pies are discovered and the problem
of their application is solved, man
will build himself actual airship
having a commercial value. Their the
question of the weight to be raised
will be relative only and the airship
will be as Independent of air currents
as the sea-going ship now.-Columbus

y.,low Beauty Powder Now.

The latest invention Of a certain
"beauty doctor" is yellow powder. The
doctor learned his little secret from
the fascinating maidens and squaws
of Canadian Indian settlement. The
powder is not a really golden yellow;
1t merely has that rich, creamy brown
tint that Is seen in the skins of Indian
girls and some of the duskier maids of
our own race also. 1t Ii made by the
simple process of burning little of
the chalk on rock set In the sun and
mixing the burnt chalk with the white
until the creamy color 10 obtained.
THE only trouble in marketing this
new powder" remarked the doctor"
'is to find any woman sallow or black
enough to acknowledge that she needs
yellow powder The most bilious look
ing creature l ever knew would rather
make a whiteds sepulchre of herself
than acknowledge 10 her own soul that
she is anything but milk and roses"
