Hon. Web Wilder in the Brown
;Ounty World: When the campaign
IS over that should be the end of it
md no good Republican will seek t,
carry the defeats or disappointment
Of one election into fight for vindica-
ton OF revenge into succeeding one
1t don't pay and will in the end prove
disastrous to the persons attempting it.
You support man before the prima-
ries because you think he is best fitteo
for the place, He is nominated and
you support him at the polls and there
your friendship ends. If your candI-
date is defeated aid you 60 beyond the
election and seek "down" the fellows
who were against your candidate, You
to that extent contribute your influence
in building up clique within the
party. We want no rings or side
shows in the party and Republicans
can not we'll afford to be identified
with anything of the kind.

greater than they are in Boston, but
reform can be brought about and Tam
many defeated if all good citizens ACT

A LUCKY DAY ON THE BANKS.
over Two Hundred Thousand Pounds
Of Fish Landed Yesterday.


yesterday was busy day at the fish
houses. In the forenoon the fishing schoon-
ers began to come in and they continued to
arrive until late in the afternoon when the
greater part of the fishing fleet was in port.
The catches, which consisted of cod, had
dock and bake, mostly bake. amounted to be-
tween 100000 and 100000 pounds,
and varied in size from 10000 to
10000 pounds each. The schooner
any vessel of the fleet Her catch, which
was taken in one day, amounted to 10000
pounds This netted each member of the
crew about $50 for his days work, a very
respectable sum indeed.
The scene yesterday afternoon at John
Loveitt e. Co.'s and J. w. Trefethen &
Co.'s, the two great fish houses on Com
mercial wharf, was.a remarkably busy as well
as very interesting one. A dozen fishing
schooners, all with good catches, were made
fast to the wharf, and fishermen, dressed in
their oiled suits, were busy throwing the
fish in baskets with their two tined forks.
As soon as basket was full it was hoisted
to the fish house on the wharf, weighed and
then the fish thrown in pile or put in boxes
and covered with ice. In John Loveitt &
Co.'s store half score of men were kept
busy weighing the fish and filling large boxes
full of the slippery cod and paddock ready to
be shipped away. In ]. w. Trefethen's each
man was working as If his life depended up
on what The did. Vessels were unloading
at two doors of the house and the fish was
thrown into huge pile in the middle of the
floor by men who worked rapidly with two
tined forks. There were $4,000 pounds of
fish in the big pile when the writer saw it
yesterday afternoon. At the end of the
wharf score Of fishermen who had unload
ed their catch and received their pay, were
lolling upon boxes and barrels or leaning
against the fish houses, smoking, spinning
yarns and cracking jokes.
The ship furnishing stores were also busy,
for the fshe rmen spent their money with
lavish hands. Quantities of provisions,
hooks, fishing tackle and so forth were pur-
chased by the hardy seamen, and the old
black pipe was laid away for cigar Such
are the scenes on the docks when the fleet
comes in after lucky day on the banks,
