Shark.
A shark 10 feet long was caught on

halibut from tho dock Of the steamship
Queen at Kilbsnoo banks, between Fort
Wrangel aud Sitln, on a recent Alaska

three hours TO allow the passengers an
opportunity to engage in tho exciting
sport of halibut flshing. and a large
number Of highly elGtcd fishermen with
large hooks and lines wero landing one
and two large fish mt IL hnul when the
young lady, who Collector Mcdonald
thinks was Miss f. A. Sprngue Of San
Francisco, discovered that upon her line
was tho strongest and largest fish of tho
season, but imagine her excitement
when, by tho help Of II gentlonan, tho
ugly vicious looking monster of the deep
was pulled to the surface of the water
and found to be "a shark

WAS intense, but tho plucliy young lady

velopment of existing resources, but
immeasurably more important ie the
creation of other and unlimited re-
sources which will follow the construc-
ton of the great canal.
The result is almost prehenslble
and will be comprehensive only by
degrees. We know in general way
that the pathways of the sea estab-
lished with steam navigation will be al
most wholly changed and that the
! commerce of the world, like the star OF
empire, will take westward way.
But all this has been passed over in
preliminary debate upon the canal bill
and what is of greater local concern ls
the effect OF its construction upon the
Pacific coast, the section. to be more
Immediately and more greatly bene-
fitted. And OF still more immediate
| local concern is the effect upon the
southern coast.
Two years ago when the matter of
the San Diego and Phoenix railroad was
being agitated, the complete success of
the project was said to be dependent
upon the construction OF this canal, a
condition then shadowv and indefinite.
1t was agreed that in that event, San
Diego would naturally become the chief
sea port on the Pacific coast by reason
of its closer proximity to the world s
new highway. Also in that event
there would naturally be constructed
the most direct transcontinental line,
to such sea port and Phoenix lies di-
rectly in the way.
That condition by the action OF the
senate on the canal bill has become
less shadowy the possibility is now so
much of probability that it may be
almost considered a certainty. We
predict that all that was hoped for will
come to pass, that many of the benefits
Of the canal will be anticipated, that
even the final passage of the bill will
give the southwest an impetus which
will result in its preparation for a full
enjoyment of the prosperity which will
come with the completion of the mos
gigantic enterprise OF the age.

LET US HAVE AN ARBITRATOR


The Brooklyn trolley strike has as
sumed an alarming aspect. Every eff
fort on the part of the strikers to reach
a compromise has been rejected and
rioting and destruction of property
have been resorted to. Additional
troops have been ordered to the scene
of the disturbances from New York
city, and unless there is change for
the better today's record may be one OF
bloodshed and horror.
Up to this time public sympathy has
been with the strikers Their demands
were just, and people generally be-
lieyed that the trolley managers should
be reasonable and make the desired
concessions. But they refused and a
strike was the result. Had the strike
been continued on peaceful lines there
can be no doubt as to the outcome.
The trolley managers readily found men
to take the places of the strikers, and
today each road would have been run
ming as if no trouble had occurred.
Driven to desperation at the prospect
of defeat, the strikers have resorted 10
extreme measures and now have to face
troops and finally succumb to the
majesty of the law.
Some other way must be found to ad
| Just labor differences than through the
medium of strikes. Almost invariably
wage-earners suffer defeat and are sub
iected to humiliation and distress. Il
is impossible for strike to succeed
while there are SO many unemployed
working people, ard the scenes of vic
lence and bloodshed they bring abou
are injurious to the cause of labor
Congress has failed to enact an arbitra
ton law that will do away with strikes
and there should be no further delay il
framing this important measure.

THE NICARAGUA CANAL.

The Nicaragua canal bill has passed
the senate by satisfactory majority.
There is even less opposition to it in
the house SO that it's ultimate passage
of both brances can be hindered only
by pressure of precedent business and
an objection against its being taken up
out of its regular order. A possibility
therefore that 1t may not become an act
at this session of congress is so remote
that congratulations are already in
order.
No incident has occurred within the
last quarter of a century of SO much
Importance to the whole country, par
ticularly to the western part of it and
more particularly to the southwestern
part of it as the probability of the con
struction of the Nicaragua canal.
