Wind and Fish.

"A singular correspondents has
Safely been brough to light between
the prevailing direction Of the wind
on the coast Of New South Wales
and the average catch Of fish. The
winds influence the ocean currents,
which in turn influence the course
of the fish. These influences have
periods of three OF four years. Thus
In 1898 there was q genera! scarcity
OF, fish, but afterward they became
more AMI moro abundant up to 1901.
In 1905 there was another scarcity
OF fish, but the next .,ar they began
TO return in increasing numbers. The
cause of tLese variations was mys-
terry until the coincidt nee with the
prevailing direction of tie coasta!
winds was noticed. Now 1t is thought
chat by the study Of the winds the
prospects of the fishermen may be
predicted two or three years In ad-
vance.-Youth's Companion.

Who Sherman Really Is.

Samuel G. Blythe in the Washington Herald: 1t
YOU should see a man with a red and round face, a
square-topped hat, a long English walking coat,
a green vest, and funny little rombold whiskers be-
meath his ears, that would be Jim Sherman, whom
the republican party in convention assembled nom
mated for vice-president.
The Hon. Jim is the pride of Utica, N. Y. He is
the luckiest man in the world. Lucius Littauer, his
close friend and former associate in congress, COM
ing from G1oversvi1le, which is just abaft OF. Utica,
started a boom for Jim for vice-president, thinking
to give Jim some needed prominence, so Shernans
friends could 90 home and run him for governor OF
New York this fall.
They were press agenting Jim a bit, giving him a
reputation, so to speak, SO they could boom him III
September as the successor of the highly beloved
Hughes (prounced Hughes in these western
parts)
Sherman's only prototype is the man who fell IN
the Hamburg canal, in Buffalo, the r~eekingest place,
in its day, in all the country, and came up with a
gold watch. A lone, wild bound, and he became the
cvnosr1re of all eyes, the partner of William Howard
Taft, for veal or for woe, and instead of being pent
I'D in Utica, he is upent, with his picture in all the
papers and nothing to do, perspectively, except read
the papers every morning to see if the president is
sick.
James, you know, is trusty Jim. All the boys in
the house of representatives are for him, because ne

Southern Representation.

1t was by only a small majority that the late repub-
lican national convention decided to give the ques-
ton of southern convention representation a rest
for at least four years. There is a growing dis
position to curtail the representation from the black
states, which never assist in the election of a repub-
lican president and make it a practice to take scand-
a1ous contests into every convention.
Politics in the south, where republicanism has no
voice in the settlement of national issues at the polls,
is a scramble for offices distributed through the ma
tional organization and the defeated asp1rants for
appointive positions have every thing to gain and
nothing to lose in taking contests before conventions.
The south affords a prolific field for the exploit
tation of administration influence and whenever an
administration takes a hand in the election of dele
gates to a national convention, it can easily shape the
negro element to its own uses. This was never more
clearly demonstrated than in the southern represent
alton that went almost unanimously to Chicago fixed
to vote for Mr. Taft. The delegations were con-
tested, but the contestants stood no show with a
Taft majority in the committee.
The scandals that usually come up from the south
stimulated the disposition in the convention to lnstl-
tute a radical change in the scheme OF representa-
ton and the movement was encouraged by those
those who had failed to get on the Taft band wagon.
The defeated proposed amendment to the report OF
the convention committee on rules that contem-
plated a readjustment of representation permitted
one delegate to a certain number of republican votes
cast at a presidential election and the south does not
show up strong on election day for the republican
party, for various we'll known reasons.
Had the amendment prevailed, it would have
added largely to the convention Importance OF the
four states of Idaho, Utah, Colorado and Wyoming,
where woman suffrage prevails, and it would have
strengthened the arm of the. Mormon hierarchy,
which controls the votes of all the women OF the
church.
Mr.. Burke, of Pennsylvania, who proposed the
amendment is suspected of having been a woman
~suffragist in disguise. Possibly, also, he was an in
cognito Jack-Mormon.
