.Minding Our Own National Business,
The good calm sonso about Btlck
lng our national noso into other peo
ple's business has been stated no
where better than at Yale university.
It was stated bo well that many for
eign papers have given it more pub
licity than It was allowed to have
here. Indeed, Collier's found It
first In these European Journals.
Head it:
"We, tho undorBlgned members of
tho faculty of Yalu university, are
unalterably opposed to any interfer
ence by an outside nation with our
domestic affairs, and we are equally
opposed to any attempt on the part
of our own government to Interfere
with the domestic affairs ot any
other frlondly nation. We protest,
in particular, ngalnst any congres
sional resolutions, or Items In politi
cal platforms, touching upon the re
lations ot Great Hrltaln and Ireland.
We ourselves doeply relented pro
posals of foreign interference in our
domestic affairs during tho civil war
from 18C1 to 18(5, and we should
not fall to act In the present instance
with the propriety that we then re
quired of other nations."
This stood above the sixty-six sig
natures of men who know history.
economics, politics and foreign af
fairs.
A man who had all tho sympathy
In the world for Ireland might si?n
this for a very good reason that he
was first of all a loyal and sensible
citizen of America. C o 1 1 i o r ' s

' ltorton Tea Party Not Only
Affair of Kind.
Moch publicity has been given the
"Boston Tea Party," which was pic
turesque aa well a flgnlficant, but
It waa not the only "tea party" ot
mat time. Annapolis, tho capital of
Maryland, had an equally good one
with the sairra Intents and purposes
and fully as spectacular. In the
summer or 1774 the brigantlne
I'eggy Stewart" entered the port
oi Annapona wun a cargo of tea.
The peoplo of the city regarded tho
prupineriL aa an insult and a de
fiance of their will. Thev fathered
in tho street to denounce the local
Importers and to organize for the
uesiructlon of the tea.
Tho local Importer appealed to
unaries Carroll of Carrollton for
protection, his answer was that the
oniy way py wnich they cou rt es
capo personal violence would be to
burn both ship and cargo Instantly,
nu in main sigr.t ot tne infuriated
populace. This wo done, nn.i th-
burnlng ship and cargo in Annapolis
jiuroor was quite as spectacular as
the emptying of a cargo of tea into
uosion noroor Detroit New.

Manitoba King KIk lUtlal
llertl of 8,000.
The king of all the elk survivine!
on tho North American continent is
believed to bo tho leader of a heard of
8,000 animals on the Riding Moun
tain reserve In western Manitoba.
This magnificent specimen of a
dylnc raqo was reported by woods
men sent out recently by the Mani
toba gffvornmcnt to take a census of
tha herd. After a closeup view of the
noble beast they' ' estimated tho
spread of Its main antlers at 80
Inches, believed to bo the greatest in
tho world. The frreat buck, accord
ing to tho woodsmen, Is In his prime
and In physical proportions stands

of tho two great herds of elk left
on the contlnont. Protected by law
and carefully tended. It Is living ,
sleek and fat this winter, while tho t

null Is said to be starving In tho
Jackson Hole country on the borders
of Yellowstone park In Wyoming.
Riding Mountain lies west of Lotto
Manitoba on thn Canadian National
railway, and fium any of its higher
slopes the elk can gaze out on all
sides upon some ot the most highly
developed farming regions of Can

civilization have enveloped the
mountain and left these denizens of
tho elder wilderness like an oasis of

The- four woodsmen sent out to
take the census of the herd watched
for days at the foedlng places. Their
combined estimates on a strictly
conservative basis placed the num
ber of elk at 8,000. At a distance ot
40 yards they counted an many ai
1,000 animala in a single bunch.
