The people of the two ter ritories have made 1t evident by their votes that they will not come In as one state. The only alternative Is to ad- init them as two, and trust that ehis will be done wihout delay.
 Interstate Fisheries.
 call the attention of the Congress to the importance of the problem or the fisheries in the interstate waters on the Great Lakes we are now, under the very wise treaty of April Il of this year, endeavoring to come to an ih'erna.ionai na agreement for the preservation and sat- isfactory use of the fisheries of these waters which cannot otherwise be achieved. Lake Erie, for example, has the richest fresh water fisheries in the world; but 1t is now controlled by the statutes of two nations, four states, ana once province, and in this province by different ordinances in diHerent counties. All these political divisions work at cross purposes, and in no case can they achieve nrotection to the fisheries, on the one hand and Justice to the localities and individuals on the other. The case is similar in Puget Sound.
 But the problem Is quite as pressing in the interstate waters of the United States. The salmon fisheries of the Columbia river are now but fraction of what they were 25 years ago, and what they would be now if the United States gov
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-12-09

ernment had taken complete charge of them by intervening between Oregon and Washington. During these 20 years the fishermen of each state have naturally tried to take all they could get, and the two legislatures have never been able to agree on joint action of any kind ade- uuate in degree for the protection of the fisheries At the moment the fishing on the Oregon side is practically closed, while there is no limit on the Washing ton side of any kind, and no one can tell what the courts will decide as to the very statutes under which this ac- tion and non action results. Meanwhile very few salmon reach the spawning grounds, and probably four years hence the fisheries will amount to nothing; and this comes from a struggle between the associated, or gill-net fishermen on the one hand. and the owners of the fishing wheels up the river. The fisheries of the Mississippi the Ohio and the Potomac are also in bad way. For this there is no remedy except for the United States to control and legislate for the inter state fisheries as part of the business of interstate commerce. In this case the machinery for scientific Investigation and for control already exists in the United States bureau of fisheries. In this in similar problems the obvious and simple rule should be followed of having those matters which no particular state can manage taken in hand by the United States problems which in the seesaw of conflicting state legislatures are abso- lutely unsolvable, are easy enough for the Congress to control.

 Foreign Affairs.
 This nations foreign policy is based on the theory that right must be done between nations precisely as between in- dividuals, and in our actions for the last ten years we have in this matter proven our faith by our deeds. We have be- haved, and are behaving, toward other nations, as in private life an honorable man would behave toward his fellows.
 Latin-American Republics.
 The commercial and material progress of the 20 Latin-American republics is worthy of the careful attention of the Congress. No other section of the world has shown a greater proportionate de- velopment of it's foreign trade during the last ten years and none other has more special claims on the interest of the United States. It offers today probably larger opportunities for the legitimate expansion of our commerce than any other group of countries. These coun- tries will want our products in greatly increased quantities, and we shall corre spondingly need theirs. The interna- tional bureau of American republics is doing a useful work in making these na-' tions and their resources better known to us and In acquainting them not only with us as a people and with our pur- poses toward them. but with what we have to exchange for their goods. It is an international institution supported by all the governments of the two Amer icas.

Postal Savings Banks.

I again renew my recommendation for postal savings banks, for depositins saV- ings with the security of the govern ment behind them. The object Is to en- courage thrift and economy in the wage earner and person of moderate means. In l4 states the deposits in savings banks as reported to the Comptroller of the Currency amounO to $3,590,245, or 9S4 per cent of the entire deposits, while in the remaining 32 states there are only $7O,30S,- 543, or 1.6 per cent, showing conclusive ly that there are many localities in the United States where sufficient oppor- tunity is not given to the people to de- posit their savings. The result is that money is kept in hiding and unemployed. It is believed that in the aggregate vast sums of money would be brought into circulation through the instrumentality of the postal savings banks. While there are only 1453 savings banks reporting to comptroller there are more than 6l,OOO postoffices 40000 of which are money order offices. Postal savings banks are now in operation in practically all the great ciyi- lized countries with the exception of the United States.

Educ ation.

The share that the national government should take in the broad work of educa- tion has not received the attention and the care 1t rightly deserves. The imme- diate responsibility for the support and improvement of our educational systems and institutions rests and should always -rets with the people of the several states acting through their state and local gov ernments, but the nation has an oppor- unity in educational work which must not be lost and duty which should no longer be neglected.
 The national bureau of education was established more than 40 years ago. It's nurpose is to collect and diffuse sucn information "as shall aid the people of the United States In the establish ment and maintenance of efficient school sys- tems and otherwise promote the cause of education throughout the country. Uhis purpose in no way conflicts with inc educational work of the states, but nav be made of great advantage to the states by giving them the fullest, most accurate. and hence the most helpful information and suggestion regarding the best educational systems The na- tion through It's broader field of ac- tivties. its wider opportunity for ob- taining information from all the states and from foreign countries, is able to do that which not even the richest states can do, and with the distinct ad- ditional advantage that the informa-

Parcels Posts.

In my last annual message l commend ed the Postmaster Generals recommenda- tion for an extension of the parcel post on the rural routes. The establishment of a local parcel post on rural routes would be to the mutual benefit of the farmer and the country storekeeper and it is de- sirable that the routes, serving more than 15, ,00O, 900 people, should be utilized to the fullest practicable extent. An amend ment was proposed in the Senate at the last session, at the suggestion of the Postmaster General, providing that, for the purpose of ascertaining the practica- bility of establishing special local parcel post system on the rural routes through out the United States, the Postmaster general be authorized and directed to ex- pertinent and report to the Congress the result of such experiment by establish ing a special local parcel post system on rural delivery routes in not to exceed four counties in the United Statef for pack ages of four-class matter originating on a rural route or at the distributing post office for delivery by rural carriers. It would seem only proper that such an ex- pertinent should be tried in order to demonstrate the practicability of the proposition, especially as the Postmaster General estimates that the revenue de- rived from the operation of such sys- tenn on all the rural routes would amount to many million dollars

STEPHEN UPDYkE'S LABORSENDED
South Dakoas "Od Man of Eloquence' Is Dead-Heps to
Organize New State, Was University President and
Minister in Many Places

Word has been received Of the death
in hospital at Los Angeles of Rev.
Stephen G. Updyke. He was at one
time a prominent minister in the
congregational and Episcopal
churches, being actively engaged In
Minnesota and South Dakota. He was
member of the Rawlins post, G.. A..
r., OF Minneapolis and preached for
some time in the Minneapolis Bethany
Congregational church. He is known
as South Dakota's Old Man of Flo
quence."
Born Jan. IS, 1S45, in New York
State. Stephen G. Updyke lived in the
East for only few years, coming
West to Hillsdale county, Michigan,
with his parents when a boy. At the
outbreak of the Civil war he enlisted
in the Thirtieth Michigan infantry,
serving with his regiment until 1865.
He then entered Hillsdale college,
where he was a classmate OF Dean
John F. Downey and Prof. Arthur
Haynes of the University of Minneso.
ia faculty. After studying theology at
Andover theological seminary at An
dover, Mass, he entered the Congrega-
tional ministry.
In 1880 Updyke moved to Water
town, S. d., and organized the First
Congregational church of that city.
He was member of the constitutional
convention which framed South Da.
kota's state constitution and was a
warm personal friend of A. C. Mellette,
the first governor of South Dakota. In
1886 he was appointed professor of
mental and moral science at the South
Dakota agricultural college at Brook
fngs and later he became member
OF the board of trustees and acting
president of the University Of South
Dakota at Vermillion. At the Milwau-
kee convention of the Grand Army of
the Republic he was chosen chaplain
of that order. He was also an active
member of the Knights Templar.

NO CIVIL ACTIONS TRIED.
Criminal Cases Take Up Time Of Ly.
man County Court.


There were SO many criminal cases
on the calendar Of the circuit court for
Lyman county that Judge Smith was
forced to adjourn court without giving
any attention to any of the numerous
civil cases which were ready for trial.
The case of Buffalo" George was
tried during the term. He was charged
with stealing some horses. George is
about the last of the alleged cattle
rustlers on the reservation who have
given the settlers over there so much
trouble for the past fifteen years. The
jury disagreed in it's verdict and
George made an application for a
change of venue to some other county
on the ground that he could not secure
an impartial trial. Judge Smith stat
ed that he would undoubtedly transfer
the case to Hanson county on account
of the term coming earlier in the year
than any other county on the circuit.
Clarence Colvin was convicted on
the charge of horse stealing, and will
ask for a new trial on the ground
that new evidence has been secured
that will tend toward giving him his
liberty.
Owing to the other terms of court to
be held in his district Judge Smith
could give but two weeks to Lyman
county. The civil cases will be tried
at the next term of court.
