Germans have long been famous for their metaphysical ability, and they appear to be just the ones to attempt in their new Penal Code to distinguish between the *‘tip” ,and the “bribe.” |Tt seems a good deal like trying to divide a hair ‘twixt north and northwest side, but the thing has been done, so it is reported from Berlin. Everything turns on the state of mind of both giver and recipient. If the gift is merely inspired by kindness, and is accepted as a token of good fellowship, it is innocent. It becomes bribery only when both parties to the transaction are aware that it is intended to sway an official in the performance of his duty. It is a pity that this subtle discrimination was not available at Washington when there was inquiry about the $100,000 in cash delivered |to Secretary Fall, and the still larger amount {of bonds turned over to him later. What clearer |proof could there be of the giver's kind heart, or of the recipient’s full appreciation that his friend¢ were uncommonly good fellows? At the |next trial of Fall and Sinclair, it may be that this new Penal Code of Germany will be intro- duced as evidence. Herring for Meal and Oil. (Prince Rupert News.) Herring, dried or smoked amnd shipped to the Orient, are worth very little but treated at the reduction plant and sent out as fish meal and oil it is a very valuable product. The first thing, of course, is to preserve the bait supply for the halibut fishermen, but next to that comes the demand of the local re- duction plant to be allowed to use any not need- ed for that purpose. The Bushby plant at Tucks Inlet is worth a great deal to Prince Rupert. Mr. Bushby has been experimenting with dog fish and plans to continue that work. If he can.work up that in- dustry he will save more tham enough fish to make up for the herring he uses. It is to be hoped that every possible en- jcouragement will be given theyindustry here.
