which the house was compelled to pass

Monday of a resolution requesting the

port the Sub-treaSury bill.

The Monitor takes the Topeka Jour
nal to task for opposing Farmer Smith
because way back in 1889 he was a
member of committee which reported
to the Alliance of Mcpherson county
a resolution fayOring among other
things the free coinage of silver" The
point is well taken. If Republican
candidates are to have this test ap-
piled to them, where will they go for
their candidates? The state cOnven-
ton declared for free silver, the TOpe-
ka Capital clamOred for it, the Repub-
lican senate memOrialized congress for
it, the Monitor said me tOo"-in fact
the disease" got such hold on the
Monitor that it is alleged that it ac-
tually considered the prOpriety of going
clear over to the Alliance. With the
balance of the people it wanted bread
and butter" Hold 'em to it, neighbour

Jerry Simpson is said to be one of
the most attentive members in con-
gress. He is nearly always in his seat
at the opening, is eager to grasp every
idea that is advanced and always ready
to repel fallacy or indignity with
quick ridicule or contempt.

Jerry Simpson is undoubtedly a great
old fool @, but the strangest thing
about it is that the newspapers pay SO
much attention to him. The dailies
inform their readers in huge headlines
each day what Jerry is doing. Every
Republican paper in the Union is con
Stantly belittling him; the caricaturists
ridiculing him and-well, verify, 1T is
only step from the sublime to the

had fairly begun. Then we would have our
native interpreter, UnRurula, and have a
genuine Eskimo fishing party. This was a
much more satisfactory Arrangement than
ANYTHING that l could plan, for | knew moth
ing about the country or the habits of the
fish, as l had never been salmon fishing. SO
I gladly dropped all my old plans for this
new one.
Each day the weather grew warmer. and
with the increasing warmth came more and
larger and higher colored salmon until
about the 18th, when it seemed as though
this flood gates of numberless fish ponds
had been opened and the fish turned loose
by millions.
This looks az though we might have
some luck" said the captain, as we watched
the myr1ads of fish passing our vessel.
"Guess we will have to go fishing to-mor-
row." announced the captain.
We told Uugurula Of our plan and asked
him to get everything ready to catch the
fish. while the steward was directed to
make ready the most necessary part of the
baggage, the lunch basket.
Unguruia was delighted at the prospect
and Immediately set to work to prepare the
tackle" which was the most simple and
peculiar outfit for a tishing trip ! ever saw.
The captain told me we would let the guide
do all the fishing. AS there was little prep
aration necessary on my part, l had plenty
of time to watch Ungurula.
He first got a board some five or six feet
long and about eight inches wide. He cut a

The carpenter was then called upon and
his supply of nails inspected. About twenty
long wife spikes were picked out-the largest
that could be found-and these were driven
through the board Mt regular intervals from

the end down almost to within a foot of the
handle, and their long sharp points ex-
tended at least four inches from the under
side of the boaid.
How many pish?" inquired Ungurula OF
the captain, as they examined the peculiar
tackle together.
These natives mi pronounce the let
ter f..
"Oh. SO many" said the captain as he
opened and closed his fingers three times,
indicating thirty tish.
"All right said Ungurula, me ready"
/ asked no questions, but waited for time
to explain the mystery of things.
This was the season of the midnight sun,
and with continuous daylight we could
make onr start at any time. The change
of the early morning watch was the most
convenient time, and at four O'Clock the
starboard quarter boat was lowered away,
and with four strong men at the oars our
whaleboat WAS soon gliding swiftly toward
the head of the port with the long, steady
pull Of sailors on Il whaling vessel. 1t was
several miles W, but under the steady
stroke of the oars we were soon on the
river and assembled ii several miles.
Ungurula was IN charge of the expedition,
and at hls word We landed at a fork in the
river ana hauled the boat we'll up on the
beach. We then walked about 100 feet up
the smaller stream to a spot where the water
was quite shallow.
Such a sight as we saw there is beyond
description. We had seen what seemed like
millions of fish as we came up the river.
But here the water was fairly alive with
them. 1t seemed ns though the fish would
fairly push each other out of ths water in
their struggles to go up the stream. Lit
orally. the water vas a struggling mnss of
salmon of all sizes.
lhero was nothing poetic or ELUSIVE about
Ungurula. The sight was AN old story to him
and he was too intensely practical to have
anything in mind beyond the capture OF
thirty Qooi fat king salmon for the
'Cap'n." He took off his boots, stockings
and trousers, then with the mysterious
board in hand began the fishing. 1t was
very evident we were to have n degree OF
fishermsn's luck that would make any fish
erman's heart burst with Rladness. Bot
the question in mind was, how ia it to bs
done,
Ungurula soon explained it. Walking
out into the stream to u depth of abou'
three feet he raised the board high in thC
air-the surface with the bristling array %
spike points down-tnen, with q quick
muscular swing, slapped it on the waite
with all the strength his two arms coult
command. The instant it struck the waite
he ietked it with a downward movement il
toward the shore, and as he drew it out o
the water upon the sand. he brought with i
four big king salmon that had been %securel.
spiked.

SlO from the middle of July until tins

and ia of greater extent than any one can
conceive who has not seen it. AS a natural
CONSEQUENCE ''~fsherman's luck" Is a very
different thing there than in the fshed-out
streams of New England.
I first heard of the magnitude of these
runs of salmon while our vessel lay at
anchor in Port Clarence, a fine natural
harbor on the coast of Alaska, less than 100
miles below Boring straits.
1t was the first week in July and only a
stray tinny forerunner was now and then
caught by the natives. These fish were
mostly of three or four pounds weight, and
their flesh was almost white. But they were
fish, and large ones, too. in the sight of one
who had only fished in New England
streams, so l was seized with a desire to go
a~-ishing.
I was preparing for the trip in the old
regulation style and with the usual outfit,
when the captain of our vessel suggested
that l wait a few days until the run of fish
