CAMBRIDGE, Mn, Oct. 16,-George j.
Meekius' independent candidacy for
county treasurer has soms peculiar
features. In the fall of 1877 the Repub-
loans elected the commissioners of Dor
chester county, who correspond to your
Levy Courts, aud had, as your Levy
Courts still have, the appointment of the
county treasurer. Mr. Meekins then held
the office, but the Republicans mad de-
cided to displace him. He was
too cunning jor them, however,
and before they knew it he
bad gotten a bill through the Legislature
putting the appointment of the treasurer
of Dorchester county into the Governors
hands, this being the only county in the
State in which such system existed.
Hard upon the heels of them, Mr.. Meekins
was reappointed treasurer, under the
power thus lodged in the Governors
hands. The Republicans denounced the
affair bitterly and called it robbery.
At the last legislative session the law
was repealed and the Office made elective
by a direct vote of the people. Mr..
Meekius beeame candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination but he was defeated (,
and he immediately announced himself
as an independent candidate rhe
Republicans, who lately denounced the
| means by which he obtained office, now
| refused to make nomination for treas
nrer aud the leaders sesk to have the
| people support Meekins as against the
| regular Democratic nominee. Demnef ats,
| however, profess to believe that the
| Republican masses will refuse to vote for
| Meeklns, and the outlook is that the
whole of the Democratic ticket will be
elected in this county, with perhaps one
or two exceptions.

Through the courtesy OF William u.
Lunsren, superintendent OF tho p, W.
u B. car shops, and George Il Fl Moore
of Washington. "a messenger in the Employ
of the United States Flsi, Comn.ission,
representatives ~ the JOURNAL a tw
days sine5 Was showed 10 examine a car
which is being rebuilt by the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company for the minis
sion.
The car is about 55 fest long and il
named Pennsylvania in honor of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company. Al
though quite plain looking on the tx
terror, !, e,1tGtns ua5ern improvements
and many aon7enieAo+s ln one end are
kitchen, storage room, closet and ice
chest, and at the other end are all office,
toilet room, heater and a compile of btrths
Between the ,tfice aud Kitchen is an
apartment 30 feet long. IL contains four
berths, aud running the entirs length OF
the room are two alright fish tanks each
two fes: six inches wide and two ieet
deep. The temperature of the car can
be regulated at ones pleasure. The air
for the fish tanks enters the car through
a small pipe, passes through an ice chest
and is then driven into the tanks. These
tanks will hold $500, 900 shsd, between
100000 and 5000, 600 herring sud
2S, 600 carp.
While conversing with Mr.. Moore the
reporter gathered the following interest
ing information The car is used iu the
propagation OF fish and has been over
mao ri oil nf thia anuutry hut hua mt
made a trip since it returned from Cali
iornia last February. The commission
has one mora car and thru one is now
in course of construction. Last year
the commits sion distributed 10000
900 young shad, 100000 young
herring and $4,000 carp. Some
carp grow to weigh five pounds in one
year. Ia this vicinity they ordinarily
grow fromI "a minnow' 8 size to weigh u or 3
pounds. In transit the water on shad and
herring has TO be changed every IL hOurs.
Carp are carried in lots OF 20 each in half
gallon buckets. Tney need very little
attention aud the water on them is seldom
changed for days. Shad are very minute
when Matched, but herring are much
smaller. The commission has done little
with the latter fsh. In transit fish are
never ted. Many of them die. Last year
while the loss OF carp did not reach one
per cent, the loss OF shad and herring
averaged fully 10 per cent. The commis-
sion is dealing extensively with trout ana
salmon.
The car will probably be completed
this week and will go to Washington im-
medistely. About the lat of November
it will stsrt for the New England states
or the Northwest.
Mr.. Moore advises the farmers of Della
| ware to raise carp. A carp pond, he says,
would pay better than an acre OF land de-
voted to anything else.

Another Unsuccessful Attempt to
Overthrow the Delaware PtiOtage
Laws.
Monday, in the Supreme Court Of
the United States at Washington, mo-
tion Tor wit of prohibition was argued
ON behalf OF the Board of Port Wardens
OF the City of Philadelphia, to prevent
the execution of decree i'll favor OF John
P. Virden, Delaware pilot, against the
brig Charles A. Sparks for pilotRge
services rendered last March.
The brig was libelled by the pilot 10
the District Court of the United States in
Philadelphia, and Judge Butler, following
his own and Circuit Judge McKenna's
former rulings, decreed in favor of the
pilot for the full amount OF bis fees under
the Delaware law. The Port Wardens
through their counsel, as heretofore,
stoutly contested the case and notwith-
standing the refusal OF the Supreme
Court OF the United States two years ago to
issue writ ofprohibition in similar case
to the District Court for Delaware district
made this second application for the
writ to prohibit Judge Butler from exc
cutting his decree against the Sparks.
phey procured the use of the name of the
attorney general of Pennsylvania, rs il
on behalf Of that State, and filed elabo
rate briefs sigued by Lewis G. Cassidy,
attorney general, II g. Ward and NJ. P.
Henry on bsnaif of the application.
The pilot respondent was represented
by Senator Bay ard and Henry Flanders
Esq of Philadelphia. The Court, after hear
Ing Messrs, Ward and Henry, did not
think it necessary to hear counsel IL
yelly.
