THE Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
Railroad company has appealed from the
order of the railroad commissioner in
one of the most important decisions rem
dered in the history of that body. 1t is
the matter of the switching of one com
pany's cars to the side tracks Of another
and com peting road. This decision
practically compelled any railroad com
pany to place its terminal facilities al
the disposal Of another and competing
road, and seemingly it is too important q
matter from the standpoint of the rail
road company to allow to stand without
making every possible attempt in oppo
sitiOn.

IT IS matter of common knowledge
that much of the expense and effort now
put upon our country roads is wasted
because of lack of interest and poor
methods of construction. Experience
has demonstrated that better roads can
be built for the same money that is now
being expended. Good roads mean more
prosperous farmers and merchants, more
intelligent citizens; they bring large in
creases in land values and are among
the best means of developing the state
and increasing the amount of business
that can be done. Because of these
facts, and because there is general
awakening of interest in roads through
out the state, call is issued for state
good roads convention to be held in Mil
waukee on Thursday, Sept. 18th, at the
state fair grounds.

ARREST OF FISHERMEN
EXPLAINED BY BRYCE

In connection with the recent seizure
OF the American schooner Alert, by the
Canadian authorities, for trap-net fish
Ing in the Gulf Of st. Lawrence without
a proper license. British Ambassador
Bryce has sent a note 10 the State De-
partment which, It is said, emphasizes
the friendly attitude assumed by the
Dominion government in the settlement
OF disputes with this country. The Alert
was released at once. and the ambas-
sador says that the action in arresting
was taken in self-defense.
In order to prevent any friction in the
future, and as a result OF correspond
ence by the British government with
that of Canada. instructions have been
sent to the authorities not to interfere
with trap-nets set by American fisher
men in cases where a license would not
be refused to a British fisherman. even
though the special license has not al
ready been taken out
The State Department regards this as
a most moderate and satisfactory out
come Of the case.
