NEW FOUNDLAND FISHERIES.
Modus Vivendi Concluded by United
States and Great Britain.

London, Aug 13.-Thc foreign office in
announcing tonight the conclusion of a
mohus vivendi regarding the New Found
land fisheries says:
"ii3 Maiesty's government and the gov
eminent of the United States unite in re-
gar1ng the exchange of notes recording
this proposal and it's acceptance as CON
shutting in itself satisfactory agree
ment for the season OF 1908. without the
necessity of a more formal agreement"
The conclusion of n modus vivendi be-
tween Great Britain and the United
States governing the New Foundland fish
cries and the rights of American fisher
men means that friction in New Found
land waters will be avoided until settle
ment Of the entire question, which is OF
long standing, Is had before The Hague
tribunal. The dispute arises over the
contention of the Americans, who claim
the same rights to fish in New Foundland
waters that are possessed by British sub
tccts, 5asing their claims on the fisheries
treaty Of 1918. The American claim also
that the same rights apply to Canadian
waters.

Big Increase {
In Business
r. r. Business Done Here in
March Greatly Exceeds
That of Last. Year:


To prove that Beach is. doing assAnch
larger business this spring than an year
previous we have but to examine thesrail-
road company.s books at the depot The
incoming freight for March, this year, is
nearly double that Of year ago. 5s cars
of immigrant goods were shipped in last
March, making 64 since January I, 1908,
against 80 in March of last year; 2 cars of
implements against 3; cars of lumber
against S, and over hundred tons of mer-
chandise we're unloaded here during the
month of March. The increase in out going
freight is over 5oper cent; II cars of grain
were shipped against three last year; 9 cars
of hay against and 22 tons of merchan-
disc we're shipped out in March.
The passenger receipts for March are
rs per cent greater than last year and the
gross business shows an increase of over
80 per cent over 1907. This increase is
very gratifying and goes to prove that our
Golden Valley is developing very rapidly.
which means bigger and better Beach.
Watch us grow!

altho I have school right on my farm.
However, think it would be better for
Beach to form an independent district and
build school house aud run their own
school affairs separate from the county
schools.
]. H. Haigh: am not in favor of a
$5,o 900 school house. When we build let
us build a $4,000 school house, but think
it will be necessary first to re-district and
make Beach an independent district.
F. NJ. Tullar: Letus build good build
ing; not cheap one, but one that will
meet our needs for some time to come, and
have the building constructed in such a
manner that an addition could be built
when needed without remodeling the first
structure. favor re-districting and charg-
ing tuition to all outsiders who send their
children here.
Geo. Baht am in favor of $4,000

for $1,000. l believe in building good
one while we are about it and think it will
be necessary to form an independent dis
trict to get the bond question through.

Mass Meet
ing Called
City Dads Call Mass Meet.
ing for Monday Evening
April 13, at Hall.

The village dads have called a mass
meeting for Monday night at the opera
house for the purpose of discussing the
telephone proposition. There are now
three applications for franchise and the
council would like to get the opinion of
the business men in regard to giving fran
chise before acting, hence the mass meet
ing has been called. The trustees are
working for the best interests of our town
and do not want to take steps that will not
be sanctioned by the business men at large
and It is very imperative that every person
with business interests in the town attend
and let the council know how they stand
on the proposition. Weneed the telephone
system and now is the time. Remember
