The Amherst Ne,v Era, in referring in
approviI g terms to the views recently eX
pressed in an interview by Col. W. A.
Anderson, of Rockbridge, on the tariff
question, says: 1--WE do not expect Maj.
Anderson to be the nominee of the Con-
vention. as it seems to be somewhat gen
orally conceded that the part of the dis
rtTict lying east of the Blue Ridge will re-
ceive that honor this time, after being
sixteen years without it," But eff by
any unforeseen chance the nomination
should after all go to the Valley, there is
no man in it who would be more cheerfully
supported by Amherst's votes than Maj
Anderson.
Well, if Amherst, or any eastern county,
has candidate, he should be trotted out
at once, FIR the Valley counties are going
to press both Anderson and Tucker. Lii
that, probably, will be the safety and the
success of the eastern aspirant for the
nomination,

How Jacob Barker Retaliated.


Many years ago the eccentric Jacob
Barker offered some good business paper
for discount at one of the Wall street
banks, and when the board of directors
met they threw the paper out. That dis
pleased friend Jacob, and in few days
he presented $40, 900 in bills of that same
bank at the counter and demanded the
specie from the astonished officers. 1t
was rolled out to him in kegs of 81 900
each, the teller of the bank informing him
that they were obliged to give him five
and ten cent pieces.
Here was dilemma for even so bright
and redoubtable man as Jacob, but he
was equal to the emergency. He ordered
the porter to unhead- the casks, which,
being done, Jacob y took a handful of the
coin from each and requested the teller to
place the remainder-which they were
obliged to count1to his credit. It re-

TO PROTECT THE FISH.
Agents Being Sent to Enforce the
Laws at the Outlying Lakes.

Laws at the Outlying Lakes.
An organized effort on the part of low
ers of sport with the rod and reel is
being made to protect the fish in some OF
the lakes within easy reach of st. Paul.
It has been reported that some persons
in the vicinity of Forest and Chisago
lakes are catching the fish as they come
up the streams into the lakes by means
Of nets, traps and other devices.
Each fish so taken before the
spawning season represents hundreds,
and as the taking of them in this way
is forbidden by lay, it is proposed to
send detectives to these lakes to watch
for violations and bring the offenders to
Justice. One man has already been sent
out, and enough others will be en-
ployed by ST. Paul sportsmen to cover
the ground thoroughly aud let no guilty
man escape.
