Representative Gardner of Mas-
sachusetts, representing the Glouces
for district, has a grievance against
Newfoundland which be aired before
the State Department this week. It
appears that the Newfoundland court
recently ruled t0 the effect that the
fishermen of that colony cannot le
gally be shipped on American fIinlug
smacks outside the three mile limit to
flsll within territorial waters. This
decision is regarded by Mr. Gardner
its being a blow at the treniy,l-ights
of American fishermen and he seeks
to have the State Department take up
the matter with the British govern.
men. to the end that Newfoundland be
enjoined from enforcing the court or-
der until the conclusion of negotia
tions with regard to the fisheries ques
tion which are soon to begin here.
The State Department has the miller

Indiana, Alabama and ldaho do not
intend to take a back seat for New
England when It comes to a compari~
son of the beauties and courage of
their women. Several weeks ago a story
was published showing the remarkable
service that Miss Ella Nelson. a rural
carrier iii one of the New England
States. performed in working her way
through a blizzard to deliver mail.
Since then Assistant Postmaster Gene-
rad DeGraw has received numerous
letters, newspaper clippings and photo-
graphs from places which claim dis»
tinction in the possession of l'ill'fil
carriers of the fair sex. Indiana has
two candidates for honors in Misses
Nellie and Effie Stevens. who are sis-
ters, and of whom it is said that no
sort of weather conditions or bad
roads can daunt. On one occasion the
girls travelled twenty-five miles on
foot to deliver mall along their route.
tramping continuously from seven in
the morning until eight at night. All-
other incident of bravery brought to
the attention of the department is that
of Miss Ella Bolon. a rural carrier of
Mobile. While delivering mail on her
route she was overtaken by a severe
storm and in attempting to ford a
swollen stream was thrown, with her
horse and vehicle Into the water. She
succeeded not only In saving herself
and the horse and cart. but plunged
into the swift running waters of the
river and rescued the bag of mail.
the contents of which she proceeded
to deliver.
According to a bulletin fresh from
the press of the Bureau of Statistics
of the Department of Commerce and
Labor, the area of the United States
has grown from less than one million
square miles in 1890 to three and three
quarter millions. including Alsksn and
the Insular possessions. while the pop
ulation in the same period has grown
from five millions to very nearly one
hundred millions. The report is one
of the most comprehensive ever issued
by the government and is sure to bring
joy to the hearts of statisticians for
it has something more than 700 pages,
which are devoted almost exclusively
to comparative tables.
