NEW ORLEANS FLEET LAST YEAR
Every Nationality Almost Are Engaged
in the Work Annually.
FIVE .aIIL1on POUNDS OF srArEns
Sponge Fishers or tho Coast of
Florida-Other News.

NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 6.-[Special.l-
The country needs to be reminded that
there is good fishing in the gulf of
Mexico for either sport or profit, though
the fisheries there do not cost either the
government or the bordering states a
dollar of money or a moment of anxiety.
Fishing there is great industry, in
which Italians, Sicillians, Austrians,
Greeks, Spaniards, Malaya and some
West India negroes engage. The oys-
ter interests are enormous and compara-
lively undeveloped. It is estimated
that So 10000 bushels of oysters were
fished in the neighborhood of New Or
leans in 1892, most of which were taken
for local consumption.
In the same year there were 4O4 yes
sells of nearly 5000 net tonnage and ems
ploying 10000 men in the gulf fisheries.
OF the most important fishes taken in
that year were snappers to the amount
of 100000 pounds; Spanish mackerel,
100000 pounds; pampano, $50, 600
pounds; red-fsh, 100000 pounds.
There are also sponge fisheries on the
Florida coast which furnished products
to the value of $439, 900, while shrimp,
crabs, turtles and terrapin are found in
great quantities. Louisiana and Florida
take the lead in these fisheries, which
are so thoroughly under American pro-
lection that they are not likely to in
Yolve international disputes.

Something That Has Been Needed.

For some time past the public have
been looking for an adjustable grille,
with shelf attachment, upon which to
place bric-a-brac, the whole, to be ar
ranged over windows or doorways to re-
heve this portion of room, which is
usually dependent upon curtain pole.
The great trouble has always been that
they had to be made to order, as win
dSws and doors vary in width. Now,
however, q device is made narrow enough
to go into the narrowest doorway. It is
in two sections, running upon sliding
top bar. By drawing these pieces apart
they can be extended to the width OF
the door, and the open place left in the
center of them is furnished with a short
drapery. Philadelphia Upholsterer.

a GOOD Suggestion.

West Side. There has probably been
no legislature which excites so little in
terest as the one now in session at Salem.
1t is generally conceded that if our
legislature could meet once in ten years,
our state would be immensely better off.
There is too much tinkering with legis-
lation, too many $500 worth of stamps,
penknives, and pretty female clerks
voted for, and not enough law made in
the interest of the people. Because our
people have been led to expect but little,
it is probable that little will be the re-
suit of this legislature. We sincerely
hope that our assessment law may be
amended, and our road laws changed.
Less attention should be paid to spend
ing the public money, and more how to
collect the same and not rob the poor
man as is the case now, even here in
Oregon.

Tho Quickest way to Cure Gold.

Do YOU wish to know the quickest way
to cure cold? We will tell you. To
cure cold quickly, it must be treated
before the cold has become settled in the
system. The first symptoms of cold
is dry, loud cough and sneezing. The
cough is soon followed by watery ex-
pectoration and the sneezing by pro-
fuse watery discharge from the nose. In
severe cases there is thin white coating
on the tongue. What to do? 1t is only
necessary to take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy in double does every hour.
That will greatly lessen the severity of
the cold and in many cases will effectu-
ally counteract it, and cure what would
have been severe cold within one or
two days time. Try it and be convinced

RnrUBLIcAE LEADERS ANGERnD-
Chairman Clarkson of tho NAtionAI
Committee Scores the Presidents
for his Action.

WAsHINeToN, Feb. 6.-lSpecial. r.
Amongst the many leading republicans
who have taken exceptions to the ap-
pointment of Judge jackson OF Tenn, to
fill the vacancy of the supreme bench
made by the death of Lamar, Hon. j. 8.
CIarkson, chairman of the national re-
publican executive committee, is quoted
as saying: SIN my judgment, the act of
President Harrison in appointing to the
supreme bench, especially at this ex-
ceedingly critical juncture in national
affairs, southern state-rights, free
trade, anti-pension democrat, and an
unrecanted believer in the secession
theory, is betrayal of public trust and
party faith. Indeed, it is the most ser.
ious hlunder in party politics which
President Harrison has committed. No
president since the foundation of the re-
public has appointed man from the
opposition party to the supreme bench.
It is specially betrayal of party inter
est at the present time, when. the dem
ocrats are soon to take possession of
every branch of the government except
the judiciary"
It was surprise both to republicans
and democrats. AS has beeH said, it
may be an act of graceful courtesy on
thespart of Mr.. Harrison to his success
sor, but it is a dangerous and disap-
pointing compromise with principle.
If there is anything more in party than
mere office-getting, it is the duty of q
president to insure the enforcement of
Al. - l. H.
fesses in his appointments to Office. It
is common sentimental error to sup
pose non-partisan judiciary either pos
81 BILE or-undersirable.
As Mr.. Clarkson says: ''If the presi-
dent has done this because irritating ru-
NOR has said the senate would reject any
republican he should appoint, he has
proposed remuneration of republican
principles and made it possible for the
supreme court to become democratic
during Cleveland's term. Any republi-
can senator could with more loyalty to
party and honor have voted for Grover
Cleveland for four years last November
than to vote for jackson for life now.
TO vote for him is to approve in cold
blood of the abandonment of the
wronged and helpless republicans in the
south. 1t is to approve of the brutal
disregard of the rights of all colored
men in the south, and the more brutal
treatment of real or supposed colored
criminals in the southern states, who
are in these latter years so frequently
burned alive or quartered at the stake.
The republican party, which is still liv-
ing and which is to rule again, despite
any mans disappointments, may we'll
be saved from the present and enduring
the historical dishonor of such an act of
perfdy and wrong becoming an ac-
complished fact"

The Insurance Question.


There can be no question that
there is something radically wrong
in insurance laws, when these laws,
whether Intentionally or uninten-
tionally, conducc to the formation
of Il trust, and this trust is aided by
the laws in holding over insurers
who seek to buy insurance as they
would any other marketable COM
modify the terrors of the criminal
laws. Is there another State in the
Union which Furnishes it's people
for placing insurance where they
please with q criminal prosecution
and its penalties? 1t is hard to
conceive of u protest, by as repre-
sentative body of citizens, as the
protest published by the American
this morning against a necessary,
and to them almost imperative adj
junct to their several business I'M
dertakings, unless there is some
thing wrong. These men must in
sure, but they say they protest
against a law which, in its work
ings, turns them over bodily to the
tender mcrcics of the insurers.
If they do not take the terms pro-
posed under the laws now existing,
they cannot buy insurance except
by violating the criminal laws OF
the State. Now, the companies
doing business in the State pay
certain revenues to the State, and
for that reason it is claimed the
stringent laws in question were
Ipassed to protect them. But it can
not be cOntcndcd that the Lcgisla.
ture knowingly intended to make
of insurance agents in this State
a close corporation with power tC
impose such tariffs and to adopt
such regulations as they deem
lpropcr and then to enforce then
through the power of the crimina
laws.
Undcrthe reinsurance regulation
now enforced in this city, which
means insure as the underwater
direct or 90 uninsured, it seems tina
insurance is not a matter of con
tract but a onc-sidcd affair, bccaus
. it takes two parties acting at arms
{ length, to make a contract, and i
: also seems that the question we ask
c ed some days ago, Docs insuranc
|. insure? under such circumstance
is a most pertinent one.

n men who are not contentious owe

Whatever ones opinion may be
of some of his political acts, every
one must acknowledge that the
death of James G.. Blaine removes
one of the brainest statesmen of his
time. Of late years he had differed
so often with his party that it seems
a stretch of the imagination to call
him Republican. TO both of the
leading measures of the present adj
ministration-thc Mckinley tariff
bill and the force bill-he was I'M
altcrably opposed, and he never
shrank from making his opposition
known; and he is generally credited
with having prevented this Gov
crnmcnt making a humiliating
spectacle of itself by declaring war
upon puny Chill. 1t was not his
politics, but his staunch American
ism that gave to Blaine his fame, a
fame of which the American people,
without regard to political opin-
ions, arc proud.
