Henry van Dyke in the June num-
Der of Scribner's Magazine presents a
very winning picture of "The Good
Enchantment of Charles Dickens"
His analysis of the qualities of Dick
ems that have endeared him to his
readers is the most sympathetic that
the season of the centenary has call

RritaIn's Colonial Possessions.

The colonial possessions of Great
Britain are divided into three classes
crown colonies, representative instf-
buttons, and responsible governments.
In crown colonies the crown has the
ministration being carried on by pub
lie officers under the control of the
home government. Basutoland, Bechs
uanaland, The Fiji islands, North
Borneo and most of the African and
Asiatic possessions are crown colon
les.

lain treaty, which met Canadian ap-
prevail in 1883 while our senate refused
to ratify it, was in certain important
features in accordance with the award

who had been pushing the treaty, in
itiated a crusade against American
winter herring fishing as part of cam
paign to compel tariff concessions by
the American government to New
foundland on the ground that it was
not a fishery but a trade operation.
Since herring brought into Gloucester,
Mass, on American ships came in duty
free while Newfoundland fishermen in
British vessels had to pay heavy duty
it came to be the custom for American
vessels to visit the Newfoundland coast
and purchase their cargoes of herring
from the resident fishermen who act
ually caught them and were glad to sell
them to American craft as matter OF
ordinary commerce. After this there
was more friction than ever until the
matter was submitted to The Hague
tribunal in the form of seven questions.

The illusion OF flying in an aeroplane
will thus be given to the occupants of
the room, which will be used for mu-
steal entertainments. This remarkable
scheme has, it is asserted, sound arts
tic principles. Mr.. Coolidge explains
that, the paintings being below the
level of the eye. it can be enjoyed in
comfort while listening to the music,
but a decorated ceiling is far too high
to be properly appreciated in these cir
cumStanceS.
Mr.. Coolidge asserts that this idea is
a development of the methods of the
Romans, who adorned their floors, as
well as their walls, with mosaics.

WRITING ''FINIS"
ON FISH DISPUTE
Uncle Sans and John Bulls
Century Old Trouble Settled.
WITH AID OF HAGUE TRIBUNAL.

Newfoundland Fishing Banks Have
Been In Dispute Between the Two
English Speaking Nations Since the
War Of 1812-Bryce's Mission to
America Accomplished.
Diplomatic courtesies exchanged be
tween Secretary Of State Knox and
Ambassador Bryce in Washington this
week mark the official end of the cen
fury old dispute between Great Britain
and the United States as to their re-
spective rights on the Newfoundland
fishing banks. This is the final ratifca-

ton of the award of The Hague tribu-
two countries were submitted to inter-
national arbitration.
Ambassador Bryce was chosen t. rep
resent his country here in view of his
particular fitness to handle the ques-
ton.
The Newfoundland fishing banks
have been a bone of contention ever
since their discovery by the French in
1897 Friction between the French
and English over fishing rights was
settled by the treaty of Utrecht in 1713,
which gave England sovereignty over
the entire territory. Americas rights
to fish along the Grand Banks and the
Canadian, including the Newfoundland,
coast were recognized at the close of
our war Of independence by the treaty
of Versailles.
The war of 1912 terminated this
treaty, and Immediately arose disputes
that were not settled until 1918, when
the treaty Of Client was signed.
Abrogated Twelve Year Treaties.
The twelve year treaties of 1854 and
1871 were in each case abrogated by
the United States at the end of their
term. Canadian statesmen several
times made pilgrimages to Washing
ton, hoping to be able to secure recip-
rocal agreements, but their missions

might be called in question.
The question of natural bays and
the limits of the three mile line, be-
yond which American fishermen may
not venture along certain coasts, was
decided in favor of Great Britain. 1t
was held that the line does not follow
the contour of the shore, but is a line
drawn across all bays where they
cease to be bays, limiting this measure
to bays with outlets less than ten
miles across, except in certain in
stances, called Historical bays"
The United States secured the rights
to employ foreigners on her fishing
boats with the understanding that for
eigners SO employed were not subject
to the immunities of the treaty.

Future Regulations.

But to insure the business of such
regulations the tribunal recommended
the appointment Of fishery experts to
determine the justice of all existing
regulations and Of a permanent COM
mission representing both countries to
arbitrate all future regulations which

regulation by Great Britain, Canada or
Newfoundland as to hours, days and
seasons when fish might be taken on
the treaty coasts, or the method, means
and implements employed in taking
hsh, unless the reasonable and neces-
sary nature Of such regulations had al
ready been passed upon by both gov
ernments.
Second.-American vessels in the ex-
ecution of fishing rights may employ as
members of the crew persons not in
habitants of the United States.
Third.-American fishing vessels can
not be subject to the requirements of
entry or reporting at the custom house
or the payment of light or harbor dues.
The decisions of the Hague judges
gave concessions to both sides. They
found that Great Britain has the right
to make regulations over the fishing
banks to which the United States has
access by the treaty of 1918, without
the consent Of the United States and
that such right is inherent in her SOW

Preparations for the Six Days Celebration Next Week
Rapidly Nearing Completion, and Everything will be

Everybody in town and vicinity are
up on their toes these days, making
preparations for entertaining the
thousands of people who will be with
us next week during our six days

that there is no small amount of work
connected with carrying it out, and it
will be carried out to the letter. 1t

OF the show alone is worth coming a

Look Out for Fire Next Week.

1t is probably not out OF place to
call to the mind of our readers the
fact that at this time Of year everyone
should be very careful about setting
lire that they cannot control. Every
thing is very inhamable during such
hot dry weather as this, and little.
carelessness right now might cause
the destruction of all farm buildings
or whole towns during the high winds.
1t would be very advisable for the
people here in town to clean up all
intiamable rubbish, as there will he
thousands of people here next week
among whom there will be some, no
doubt, careless enough to throw light,
ed cigars, fire crackers, etc, any place
il happens. A little cleaning up viii
probably save some loss.

The Scenic Highway Handy.

The cross state auto road from
Sioux Falls to Rapid City, known as
the Scenic Highway, which goes
through Murdo and other towns on
the Milwaukee Ry. north of us. is
rapidly developing into something
more than a name. Much enthusiasm
is being cheated along the route and
work will progress rapidly when the
details are all worked out. Although
we are not on the road, it is only a
short auto drive to it-about 35 miles
---and we can take advantage of it on
a trip to the eastern or western part
OF the state.

Homesteaders Lease School Land.

About 1900 acres OF school land
in MelIe.te county has been leased by
Auditor Cummins, most of it to home
stcaders for grazing purposes. That
sounds good to us for the reason that
with a quarter section OF land on
which to raise crops and section on
which TO pasture his stock, the home
steader should be able to make for
tune in few years. 1t also indicates
that the new settler is going into the
stock raising business along with his
farming, which is wise move. Farm
ing alone, without the raising OF
stock, never was a success in any new
country any more than il is in the
older settled countries, aud we predic,
the success OF every homesteader who
raises horses, cattle, swine and poultry
along with his farming efforts.

A Good Game.

The Wood ball tossers, accompan'

OF our little city, journeyed 10 Carter
last Saturday TO play game with the

some game, too. Neither side scored
until about the sixth inning when a
few errors started things going and
the score stood three to four ir Shoe
makers favor at the close OF the ninth
inning.
After The ball game several foot
races and horse races were enjoyed
by the large crowd present, and a
dance was given in the evening.
