manufacture of their cases which Is not
native TO this coast, and buyers OF this
fraudulent pack offer the cases as evidence
conclusive that their contents Is Eastern
fish 1t is needless to say that the origin
and quality of any commodity cannot be
determined by the package in which il IS
marked. If any dealer thinks it worth his
while he can find upon investigation
among the fish companies that much OF
the so-called Eastern Goldfish is in reality
a Pacific coast fish which has been caught
and cured here and sent back East for re-
packing and then returned TO this Coast.
Pacific coast fish sells here below the price
of Eastern, but East it commands as good
a price as the best Georges. and If it is re-
turned again to this Coast it sells ct
hundred per cent. advance on the price OF
the home catch. Our local fishing COM
panies will not attempt to counterfeit the
Eastern brands. There are only few
companies, and they have decided SEEM
ingly that the fish shall sell on its merits.
They say that the prejudice will be broken
down in time and that the trade and con-
sumers eventually will be forced to &C
knowledge the excellent quality Of the
home catch.

Pacific Coast Goldfish.


Pacific coast Goldfish is on an equality
with Eastern fish in New York and Boston
and Cape Cod, but ii is not to be compared
with the Eastern catch in San Francisco.
There is no doubt but that our Pacific cod
is shipped East, prepared and boxed there
and then shipped back again to Us as East
ern Goldfish. The deluded consumer pays
fifteen or twenty cents pound for the
fish labeled Eastern cod, but refuses the
identical fish at from seven to eight cents
under its true Pacific coast brand. It is
the old story Of the prejudice against a
home product. Everybody in the trade
knows that wine cases are purchased in
France, brought to this country and sold
extensively to the American makers OF
French wines. The Eastern parties who
return California cod to this market as
Eastern fish use kind of wood in the

TROOPS FOR DEDICATION LAY

Several Cities Want Soldiers to Take
Part In Their Columbian Celebrations.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 2S.-Gen.
SchOfeld is finding it difficult to spread
the United States troops around the
cities where Columbian exercises will
be held next month. New York wants
large military display as an adjunct
to the naval demonstration. Cincin-
natl also wants to make good military
showing at its Columbian ceremony.
The greatest number of troops will, of
course, be conferred at Chicago.
Gen. Howard and troops from east
ern posts will take part in the New
York ceremonies" said Gen. Scofeld
yesterday. Cincinnati will have the
troops stationed at Fort Thomas and
forts adjacent to that city. None of
the eastern troops will be sent to Chi
cago as had been contemplated. They
will be needed for the New York cele-
bratiOn and also to keep the posts with
a garrison for emergencies. l expect
Gen. Merritt, Gen. Brooke and proba-
bly, Gen. Carr to take part in the Chi
cagO exercises. Gen. Howard will also
be there if the New York celebration
is over in time. The troops will leave
their various posts SO as to reach Chi
cago Oct. 10, and will leave on the 23d."

THE ACT INVALID.
Decision of the Wisconsin Supreme Court
In the Gerrymander Case

w
in the Gerrymander Case.
MADISON, Wis, Sept. 27.-The Su-
preme court this morning rendered a
decision declaring the apportionment
made by the extra session of the Legis-
lature invalid. Justice Winslow ais
sents.
Another session will doubtless be
called and the Legislature will make
another attempt to conform to the
rulings of the court.
An opinion will be fled and prepared
at an early date. If the defendant
desires leave to interpose an an
swer to the complainant the court
will near a motion for such leave on
the next motion day.
The general view of the situation is
that the court generally decides that
the Legislature has no discretion in
making appointments so far as popu-
lation is concerned, and the law is
practically declared invalid.
Senator Villas refused to talk upon the
matter, stating that until thu opinion
of the court could be had it would be
useless to speculate as to it's effect upon
the merits Of the case. He could not
say whether an answer to the COM
plant would be made as init
m; ted in the order. The general impress
sion is that the court is disposed to
set the act aside, and that further ar
gument would be a loss of time. An
other special session appears newt
able, as all the previous acts are prac-
tically declared unconstitutional and
in case the present act is set aside there
would be no act to fall back upon I'M
der which a legislature could be elected.

UGANDA Is AN ISSUE
Tories to Test Mr. G'a6s tcr.,, I.,
Policy.

LONDON, Sept. 30.-The question
whether Uganda shall be evacuated is
coming prominently to the front and
the conservatives protest that they will
make it a test of the foreign policy of
the new government. Jepson, in
long letter to the Times, seeks to prove
that the evacuation of Uganda is i'm
possible if Great Britain is 20 fulfill the
oollgatlons to which the country Is
pLeogeo both by honor and humanity.
lie says that evacuation will be fol-
lowed by wholesale massacres, the en-
siaVement of the defenseless, and by
appalling misery among the millions
now protected by the presence of the
British East Africa company's forces.
The Times approves the letter.
The st. James Gazette says it has
always held that the attitude of Great
Britain toward the East Africa COM
pany was one of Lord Salisbury's mis-
takes. Nevertheless the occupation of
Uganda being an accomplished fact, a
sense of humanity compels the British
to protect the unhappy and threatened
natives.
The Globe, also a conservative news
paper, takes different view and says
that it would be no harm to leave the
occupation of Uganda to private enter
prise, as it would be hopeless to at
tempt to bolster up a company so situ-
ated with the aid of the state.
