VERM0NT'S FISHING GROUNDS.

We acknowledge the receipt of
the biennial report of the fish com
iuissioners of Vermont for 1878.
1t is handsomely printed pamph-
let of &C pages, full of interesting
information relating to the work of
the commission.
The commissioners express great
pleasure and satisfaction that so
fully has experience demonstrated
the wisdom and beneficence of the
existing laws for the protection and
propagation of fish in the waters of
Vermont, they have become gener-
ally respected, and their enforce
ment by process almost entirely I'M
called for The commissioners state
that the constitutionality of the
protective laws, restrictive of net
fishing, has been sustained by the
supreme court by test case tried
since their last report, and that
many of those, who were at the out
set bitter enemies, have come to be
warm friends and supporters of the
fish law. The report states that
Vermont has nearly or quite 200
miles of Lake Champlain shore, and
that nine.tenths of the breeding and
fishing grounds of that lake are in
Vermont waters. Lake Champlain
offers the best fishing to be found
anywhere in the East, which fact
cannot fail to bring large accessions
of summer population to Vermont.
Had not wise protective laws been
enacted, fishing in the lake and its
tributaries would have been practi-
cally destroyed by this time, as the

TmE HERALD.
ISLAND POND, VT, JANUARY rs.
SOUTH DAKOTA AT LAST.

The House of Representatives has
passed an omnibus admission bill for
the Territories, admitting South
Dakota and Montana as States, and
offering North Dakota, Washington
and New Mexico an admission with
a string TO it.
In other words, tardy justice can
be done to South Dakota if Mon
tana, formerly Democratic and now
Republican by a small majority
only, can come with it.
Republican Washington and
North Dakota, however, must + be
linked with New Mexico, that has
no business to be state yet. New
Mexico has a population substan-
TALLY foreign; very low and ignor-
ant at that. The ''greaser," the
mixture of Spaniard and Indian,may
become a very good American citi-
zen in time, but taken in raw state
his qualifications are few and he is
hardly the man to be intrusted with
a state government. New Mexico
has attracted but little immigration.
Let Territory learn to manage a
spelling book before it tries State
constitution.
Montana has only 100000 popu'
lation and New Mexico has IT'S, 900,
while South Dakota has $4,000,
North Dakota has 100000 and
Washington 100000.
It's fine specimen of Democratic
fairness. The Republican party
will see that justice is done to all
the great Territories that should be
States.

MORE WHITE CAPS.

Further outbreaks of the White
Caps are reported in three different
States. In Chester County, Pa,
notices have been served upon vari-
GUS persons to amend their ways of
life, threatening them with dire
vengeance if they do not. In Cam
den County, N. Y, and in West
Orange similar notices have been
served. In these cases, as far as
heard from, the White Caps have
made no demonstration in force as
yet; but in North Salem, N. H.,
they took man by night, stripped
him, coated him with grease, and
warned MIN to leave town. In this
case, fortunately, the law-breakers
have been caught, brought before a
local magistrate and fined.
1t is time that the Governors of
the States in which these outbreaks
occur should take vigorous measures
to repress this illegal organization.
Gov. Foraker suppressed it in Ohio,
and we see no reason why the Gov
errors of New York, and New Jer.
sey and New Hampshire should not
suppress it in those States. In
Pennsylvania, as no overt acts have
so far as reported, been committed
the Governor cannot as yet exert
his functions in the premises.
This White Cap epidemic is EN-
phatically one of those that are
easiest to strangle at their birth. A
really vigorous investigation at once
of any cases like the one we have
mentioned in New Hampshire and ;
prompt punishment Of the perpe
traitors of the outrage would speed
lily convince these seIf-appointed
regulators of society that the law i;
stronger than they are, and that
they had better attend to their owr
business.
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1889-01-25

in provoking those gentlemen in
10 a state little short of madness.
For instance, when Senator Morgan,
OF Alabama, said that il it was in
his power to expel every negro from
that state and keep them out he
would do so; Mr.. Blair, by asking
him if he thought it would be best
for the interests of the white people
if the negroes should emigrate in a
hody, threw the Albanian into a
passion which caused him to engage
in some rather bitter personalities
towards the New Hampshire Sena
tor. The question asked was GER
tainly harmless one, and if asked
by any other Senator l don't believe
would have angered Mr.. Morgan as
it did. Why it is that the hot
blooded SoutEerners are always
ready to quarrel with Senator Blair
has long been a puzzle to me. He
is essentially man of peace, and
yet he says that if he received a
challenge to fight a duel he should
feel it his duty to fight.
The Senate has passed the amend
ment to the tariff bill, allowing a
bounty of one cent per pound on all
sugar produced in this country.
Senator Quay was the only Repub-
lican Senator that voted against the
amendment, and Senator Payne the
only Democrat that voted for it.
Unless something now unforeseen
shall prevent, the bill will be passed
by the Senate tomorrow.
Commissioner of Pensions Black
wants to be appointed Judge Advo-
cate General of the Army, and
rumor says Cleveland has promised
him the appointment, but there is
considerable donbt about his eligi,
bility.
Mr.. Morton's present visit to
Washington is for the purpose of
familiarizing himself with the duties
of the presiding officer of the Senate
in order that he may be prepared tc
assume them, after the fourth OF
March, without awkwardness.
The House has passed bill pro
viding for the admission of South
Dakota with two representatives
and Montana with one, by Presi,
dental proclamation, when the
voters acceptthe constitution; and
for the admission of North Dakota.
Washington and New Mexico when
their constitutions are formed.
Opinions differ as to the probability
of Senatorial action on this measure,
but the majority think that nothing
will be done at the present session.
The supporters of the several can
didatcs for Speaker are showing q
disposition to divide up INTO factions

great nets that were being used were
sweeping the spawning grounds and
destroying the fish to that extent
that they were simply doing a work
of determination.
Regarding the results of stocking
and protection, the commissioners
say: 1--WE have received from all
parts of the state reports from the
fish planted in the different waters,
favorable and encouraging beyond
the most sanguine expectations.
During the last two years land.
locked salmon have been planted in
Lake Dunmore and Molly, Tobin,
Berlin, Nelson, Dog, and Number
10 Ponds. The trout planted in the
small rivers and brooks show large
increase. Reports from the differ
ent fishing points on Lake Cham
plain show that since the protective
law has been enforced there has
been large increase of black and
Oswego bass, pike, shad, and in fact
of all fish native to those waters.
Black bass have also been planted in
the Lamoille river at Fairfax and in
Lake Seymour, Lake Hortonia and
Others"
The commissioners further say:
"The necessity for attention to vic.
lations of the law having become so
much less than formerly we purpose
turning our attention to the stock
ing ot the smaller lakes, ponds and
streams with trout and other fish
suitable to the different waters"
The report contains list of the
lakes, ponds and streams in Vermont,
also a list of fish commissioners in
other states and an appendix of the
fish and game laws of the state.
Hon. Herbert Brainerd, chairman
of the board, has made arrangements
for supplies of speckled trout, lake
trout and land-locked salmon fry
from the best sources for stocking
purposes. These fry will be ready
for distribution about March LIST,
and parties desiring to stock waters
with fish of any kind should apply
Immediately to the commissioners
for the same. Applications from
parties residing on the west side of
the mountain should be made to
Hon. Herbert Brainerl, St. Albars.
Parties residing on the east side of
the mountain should apply to Frank
II. Anterior, Waterbury. All such
applications should be Endorsed by
one or more of the selectmen of the
town as a guarantee of good faith.
The commissioners recommend
that all applications for fish be sent
in before March /, and request the
applicants to give full description
of the waters which they desire to
stock. 1t is the purpose of the
commissioners to replete the waters
of the state with fish and restore
the original bountiful supply,
