Its common name has undoubtedly come from its goat-like appearance, with long shaggy hair, beard, and sharp, pointed horns. However, it .is twice the size of the domestic goat and much stockier in build. The long hair is pure white in young animals. but in the older ones it is inclined to be stained to a yellowish tinge. The hoofs, horns and nose are black. The horns are about six inches long, needle sharp and slightly curved backward. As the goat uses them they are indeed dangerous weapons. This animal has a limited range, being found in the Pacific Northwestâ€"- Idaho, Washington, British Columbia. and northward, from latitude forty de- grees north, and only on the rocky sum- mits of the highest mountains, where nothing grows for food but a species of coarse moss, clinging to the rocks ,Here the goat spends it_ entire life,I ‘ watching for danger only below, for it ’ is inconceivable to the goat mind that anything could get higher than it does. 1 The goat is a marvelous climber, and ‘if there are two ways of reaching a inlace. an easy way and a hard way, the animal will invariably take the hard way. It climbs up and down cliffs 'that are absolutely perpendicular, any little crevice or protruding inch or two of rock being sufficient to get a toe hold. It is said that goats and mountain sheep will not live together. but wheth- er the sheep drive out the goats or vice versa no one seems to know. In fact, there is less real knowledge about mains that goats and sheep are never found on the same mountains, though sheep may be found on another range a few miles away. If the sheep are THE MOUNTAIN GOAT THE DURHAM CHRONICLE there, however, it is a sate bet there are This picturesque animal is hunted widely for its head. for the flesh of the adults is too strong for human palates. or at least for most white men’s pal- ates. It was formerly very abundant everywhere in its range, but its num- bers have been reduced until now it is forbidden to hunt the animal anywhere in this country with the possible ex- ception of Idaho. One must be a strong, hardy man to hunt the goat, for it is strenuous toil to get up to his level in the crags above the clouds. With pro. tection from hunters the goat is able to care for itself, for it has few nat- ural enemies. The cougar might venâ€" ture to the heights, but the old billy has an ugly diSposition, and is ready and willing to use those sharp little daggers on the tap of his head. One good thrust is usually enough to dis- able or kill any attacker. Against man Iwith high- pow er rifles and binoculars the goat has no defense but he is well able to discourage any natural enemies.

In the spring of 1885 the first treaty between America and Japan, providing among other things, for the Opening of Shimoda to American trading vessels, was pro- claimed. America’s first diplomatic represen- tative to Japan resided at Shimoda.

That, in any event. is the contention of S. mics Bouton, an American who has served as European correspondent for several years. and discusses the Quest- ioninthecurnentissueof'l‘he Ameri- can Mercury. He says frankly that the average American correspondent in “'0' Germany is incompetent; and that 30° those who are not incompetent are, am speaking generally. hampered by the cas policy of the papers they represent. In T01 a word, the average Americanâ€"and no doubt Canadianâ€"wants news of a cer DI tain kind about Germany ,' and the newspapers are prepared to give him what he wants. For example, today we are not in mood to think much good In of the Kaiser's regime, nor of the Ger- 1 mans who would like to see the mon- l archy restored. We live under demo- cratic forms of government and have . little sympathy for the former Kaiser‘s tie government or the form which Hitler rm is now seeking to impose lit 3 No Good in Old Regime 3d Of course correspondents would de- 0* ny that they were instructed by their nc ' editors how to shape their reports. ‘1‘ Definite instructions are not necessary. ' Every competent reporter knows his th paper’s policy on any subject if it hap- St pens to have one. Says Mr. Boulton: p! “There are few correspondents who D i would not imperil their jobs by re- ti porting anything favorable to the Old T Gang. that is. the men who ruled the cc German Empire.

No chance to of course, is not unnatural. Most Amer- if icans and Canadians want to see the 11 German republic prosper. They nat- I - urally welcome news that indicates 11 o‘ it is prospering. and regard as an evil conspiracy any movement aiming at 2 its overthrow. There are however, many . c trained and philosophical observers. like Henry N. Brailsford. for instance. who seem to doubt that the Germans are capable of working out their des- t tinies under a republican government. 1 There are many more who believe the 1 \present experiment cannot endure. I Astonished at Hitler But whatever are our predilections it is important that we should get truthful accounts of what. is going on That we have not been doing so is plainly proved by our astonishment over Hitler. The forces behind him have been waxing in numbers and strength for years. and yet their mani- festat1on has mystified most news- paper readers whom it has taken una- wares. The notion that there is more personal liberty under the republic than under the Kaiser is disputed by Mr. Bouton. He says that Otto Braun former printer and lately deposed as the Socialist Prime Minister of Prussia caused more presecutions for the alleg- ed insults to his august peison in his 11 years in office than the Kaiser in the 30 years of his reign. Not since the days of Metternich has there been such a ruthless suppression of free speech as has been going on under the republic. Americans were instiucted that the first Dawes plan then the Young plan. and finally the Parker Gilbert report was to save Germany. Yet every well-informed correspondent knew. or should have known. that they were all fantastic and founded on il- lusions.

Thursday of last week. The resolution included a request that every county in the Irish Free State should hold meetings to pre- pare for a convention to be held in Dublin, September 15, with a view to the adoption of effective measures. The motion added that the 20 per cent. tariff on all livestock and farm produce iniposed by the United King- dom following the failure of the Irish Free State to pay land annuities must lead to ruin for the whole farming community of the Free State. “It is useless for de Valera to talk wheat," declared Captain Daly of County Dublin. “The Free State Min- ister of Agriculture (Dr. James Ryan) never tilled a piece of land in his life.
