In view of the careful precautions
taken by the Fish Commissions to
protect the fish in local waters. it is
strange that so little is being done to
stop the destruction of our salt water
food fish reported all along the
coast. This destruction is caused in
most cases by wilful violation OF
game laws. The fish phosphate fac
tories, for instance, cause the disaI-
pearance of immense quantities of
bluefsh, bass, and soup. The gill
nets al the entrance to bays and har-
bors have almost exterminated the
striped-bass, which once was very
plentiful, while early every spring
pound nets are set for alewives, flat
fish, smelts and founders, and these
are caught by the ton and spread up
on the land as fertilizer. The most
destructive nets probably are the
pounds, since they are made of fine
meshed netting and cover an i'm
mense area. In some instances
these nets are 1000 feet in lengthssand
naturally catch immense quantities of
Gamers, killies, butterfsh, white
perch, and young fry of the Blacklist
and sea bass which frequent our
waters. 1t is to be hoped that
stringent game laws will be adopted
and that they will be rigidly en-
forced. Scientific American.

the author of the same, whoever he
may be, land he must not imagine

upon my arrival in Morris, and be-
fore | had even visited my family,
the anti-Nelson men swarmed around

such circumstances, did not stand
up for man who has been my life

Minnesota have thus honored and
whom Stevens county never went

My friends in Stevens county know

never yet have deserted a friend nor
yili6ed an enemy behind his back or
over an assumed name. But it is one
of the characteristics of some of the
anti-Nelson men of Stevens county to
do these very things.

ness as to the sentiment in Stevens

test between Mr.. Washburn and Mr..
Nelson, for all candid people know
that if it were possible to take vote
on that issue today in that county be-
tween the two candidates, Mr.. Nel-f

Washburn's one. And the fact of
the business is, that the enemies of
MIR. Nelson know this.
Now in conclusion let me say, that

AS the senatorial fight progresses,
in does not lose any Of its complica-
ton. The friends of Senator Wash
burn are loud in his praises and are
sanguine of his success in the
scramble for reelection. The sup
porters of Knute Nelson are equally
jealous and will leave no stone I'M
turned to place our staunch governor
in the United States senate. Hon.
S. e. Comstock also has quite fol-
lowing and it would not surprise us
if the Moorhead attorney should Sc
cure the plum. The TRIBUNE has al
ways been friendly to all of these
men. Senator Washburn's work in
the Senate has been all that could
have been desired, and it would be a
fitting reward for good service rem
dered to give him another term. But
of course, Governor Nelson seems
nearer to and more in touch with the
people Of the state, and to US Of the
Seventh congressional district, which
he so ably represented in the lower
house for three successive terms, he
seems more like neighbor than any
of his opponents, with the possible
exception of Mr.. Co1astock.
But we do not fear any terrible ca
lamity in the event Of the election
of either Washburn, Nelson, Com
stock or McCleary, any one Of whom
is able and competant to represent
lis in the United States senate.

The rapid Withdrawal of gold from

The rapid withdrawal of gold from
the Treasury since the last bond is
sue is bringing the country face TO
face with serious situation. There
seems to be little hope that provision
will be made for retiring the green
backs by the present Congress. This
will necessitate the issue of more
bonds in the spring, and perhaps
again in the autumn, to maintain the
lettering fabric of government paper
money, says the United States In
weston. 1t seems to be choice be-
tween more bond issues, and the con-
tinued distrust OF the financial sys-
tenn. on the one hand, and some rad
ical action by Congress on the other.
An extra session of Congress is a
contamination never devoutly wished
by the business community; but it
may become necessary, as
was the case in 1898, to prevent the
absolute collapse of the national cred
it and another financial crisis. The
Fifty-fourth Congress, which meets
year hence, could not be expected to
legislate before the summer of 1896, |
and would be acting then under
heavy handicap of an impeding pres
idential election. Much as an extra
session is to be regretted, it might be
the lesser evil Of the two.
