FREE speech appears to be at discount
in San Francisco. The protesting Demo-
Gratis in their efforts to hold mass meetings
in the interest of the ticket of the Reform
Democracy are rotten-egged, knocked
down, beaten and their wagons and stands
wrecked. The men engaged in these out
RACES are named by the local press as MEM
bers, in large part, of the paid fire depart
ment, who are, in the main, the henchmen
and fighters of local boss, who aspires to
establish his headquarters in the State

coil upon the perpetrators of the outrages'
and only serve to add to the number OF
votes that will be cast against the regular
Democracy in the metropolis.

FOOD FISHES.
How the Black and Striped Bass Have
Increased.


How the Black and Striped Bass Have
Increased.
From Deputy Fish Commissioner
Shelby, who was in the city yesterday, il
was learned that the Commission has, the
past year, distributed many thousands of
black bass from the Spring Valley Water
Company's reservoirs, where few hun
dred young ones were placed seven or eight
years ago. But for the lack Of funds with
which to operate the Commission would
have distributed many thousands more.
The black bass is a very gamy, as well as
very toothsome fish, and when the lakes
ard sloughs throughout the State shall be-
come well-stocked with them anglers will
have fine sport.
The striped bass placed in San Pablo Bay
| few years ago have increased marvelously.
Although but few hundred were put out,
the BAYS and sea coast now fairly swarm
with their progeny. Mr.. Shelby says that
with seine tons of them can be taken
from the bay in few hours. The bass
have multiplied SO rapidly that they are
now plentiful all along the coast, from
! Santa Barbara to the Columbia river.
| 1t is the purpose of the Fish Commits.
sion-proyided the Legislature appropri-
ates sufficient money for the purposs-to
send large lot of striped bass to New
Zealand in exchange for plant of cells
from there. There is variety of eel in
| the New Zealand waters that grows to
enormous size, some weighing as high as
100 pounds each. They are said to be a
delicious food fish.
| Mr.. Shelby speaks enthusiastically of
1 L If tho 10 nf "a Etch
! mission the past year; especially the hatch
cries under the management of Superin-
| tendent Woodbury., who is perhaps the
most thorough fsh-culturist in the United
States. Millions of young trout and
salmon have been patched and transplant
ed in the waters of various parts OF the
| State, and the good results thereof will
soon be apparent
The importance OF the work done and
| being done BY the Fish Commission is not,
Mr. Shelby thinks, fully appreciated by the
public generally, as they are not familiar
! with the facts. Unthinkipg persons fire.
| quently remark that the patching of trout
arti6cially is nonsensical, as the fish breed
in sufficient numbers when nature is per-
mitted to take its course. While this
might be truly said of Alderman Sulliyan's
| gondolas. it is not true Of the trout. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Shelby's statement, only
about two per cent. of trout eggs produce
young fishes, while in the hatcheries they
secure about 50 per cent. from eggs arti-
| ficially Matched.
There are now streams well stocked with
trout that either never had any before or
in which the fishes had been practically
exterminated by means of giant powder.
There remains much work to be done by
the Fish Commission, and il is hoped that
the coming Legislature will make suffi-
GENTLY liberal appropriation to enable the
Commission 10 carry on. its plans.

TIE action of the American Minister to
Central America, in the matter of the Bar
rundia affair, has been approved by the
State Department, and the Minister has
been so notified. This is precisely the
outcome for which we looked. 1t is I'M
possible to understand how the Minister
could have acted differently and have
been true to the law, or how the State
Department could have done otherwise
than approve his course without establish
ing = dangerous precedent. Yet it is not
at all likely that the decision of the Gov
eminent in this matter will in any re-
spect change the tone of the Eastern Mug
wump press, which at the beginning con-
demnei the Minister and demanded that
the President should dismiss him in dis
grace. This Mugwump press, by the way
appears to have no other mission than to
growl at all things done under Republic
can administrations do not recall a
solitary act by the President, Congress, OF
any of the officers of the Government since
Mr.. Harrison took his seat, that the Mug
wump journals of New York and New
England have not Condemned or ridiculed.
1t is sigular, but true.

THE Cincinnati Enquire is of the opinion
that the new POSTAL law relating to lot
teries will embrace all advertisements by
business men printed to attract attention
to schemes of chance for the disposal Of
their goods, in the guise of prizes offered
as inducement to buy. The Enquirer is
correct in its conclusion, as it has found to
its sorrow, since the authorities came
down upon itrecently and stopped guess
ing contest for prizes, to be distributed
only to those who paid in certain sum,
to the paper, in the form of subscriptions
to that journal.
