Big Run OF Saline q In British Columbia

OTTAWA, Aug. l2.-The Minister Of
Msfiae and Fisheries has received a tel
egrsm from dep lrim' al officer Of Brit
i.h Columbia saying that the run OF salmon
this wear is of the most extraordinary char
acter. being fully equal TO that of LAST ear.
rwsniy ih2usxnd salmon were tsken by the
canneriss yesterday. This years run upset
all he ,heori. ,svi,usly he'll in regard to
salmon. Heretofore ore good season has
invariably been followed by two poor ones.
Last season was the best the canneres ever
had, and if the total pack this year is as
large, the old rule viii not spply. The only
reason that is assigned for the increased
run this year is that the effects of the good
work done during the past four or five
years at the Government. fishery hatchery
are now beginning TO manifest themselves.

evening, an unusually full representation
Of the members being present. The pres

very carefully aud full expression of the
members from the different counties was
obtaiuei upon the matters involved in the
coming canvass. The prospect is most en-
eourasnz. and the full loft wear" majority
is safely counted upon. Good nominations

where conventions have been held, and
equally good ones will also he made in
those counties which are yet to hold the ir

less time than has been usual heretofore
even in years OF State elections only.
There will also be speaking by prominent,
members Of the party in our own State
who have slways addressed the people of
Maine sccePtsbly, elcquently and to good
effect.
The Committee will also arrange to have
speaking at leading points in the state by
distinguished talent from abroad if the
gentlemen can be released from the impor-
TAFT work of committees and their general
congressional lsbors at Washington.
Among the speakers are to be the following
Congressman; Hons. Henry Cabot Lodge
and F. T Greenhslge of Massachusetts !;
