Boston, Mass., Oct. Bfh— Polar
trout, the only fnr-boaring lisli
known to natural history, is the
latest contribution of the arctic
regions, according/ o ilohn Bun-
ker of Northwood center, N. C.,
who has reached Boston from a
two months exploring trip in
Greenland. lie brought photo-
graphs and actual spelcimens of
the strange tisli, whioh he lias
called polar trout.
This peculiar denizen of the
polar regions resemble^ a square-
tail trout in shape and gameness,
and reaches teu to fifteen pounds
in weight. The skiu is covered
with a fine brownish fur,resembl-
ing the texture of mole^kiu. This
ed with white,
fur is slightly spotted
as is a young seal in th|« sprihg.
Bunker says this fact ( ft ret led
him to call the curiosity a, polar

j make proof of our friendship,
work out their own development
iu peace and liberty. Mexico
has ho government. The at-
tempt to maintain one at Mexico
City has broken down and a
mere military despotism has
been set up which has hardly
more than the semblance of na-
tional authority. It originated
in the usurpation of Victoriauo
Huerta, who, after a brief at-
tempt to play the part of con-
stitutional president, has tit last
cast aside even the pretense of
legal right and declared himself
dictator As a consequence a
condition of affairs now exists in
Mexico which has made it
doubtful whether even lite most
elementary and fundamental
rights either for her own people
or for the citizens of other coun-
tries resident within her terri-
tory can long be successfully
safegarded, and which threatens,
if long continued, to imperil the
interest of peace,order and toler
able life in the lands immeadi-
ately to the south of us. Even
if the usurper had succeeded in
his purposes, in despite of the
constitution of the republic and
the rights of its people,ho would
have set up nothing but a pre-
carious and hateful power,which
could have lasted but a littlo
while, and whose eventual down-
fall would have left the country
in a more deplorable condition
than ever. Butlhe hns not suc-
ceeded. lie has forfeited the
respect and the, moral support
eveu cf those who were at one
timo willing to 9oe him succeed.
Little by littlo he has been com-
pletely isolated. By a little eve-
ry day his power and prestige
are crumbling and the collapse
is not far away. Wo shall not;I
believe, be obliged to alter our
policy of watchlul waiting. And
then, when the end comes, we
shall hopo to 836 constitutional
order restored in distressed Mex-
ioo by the concert and euergy of
such of her leaders as prdfer the
liberty ot their^eoplo to their
