AROUND THE CORRIDORS.

W. H. Burne, a Chicago newspaper man, con-
nected with the Times Herald is at the Palace.
He says that within a few days there will be
two Democratic newspapers in that city, one
in favor of silver and the other in favor of the
gold standard. s'John X. Walsh" he said,
"who made the Herald what it was, has long
been stockholder in the Inter Ocean, which
has been losing game since the control
passed from the hands of H. H. Kohlsaat, and
the paper has been in the market some weeks.
j. s. Clarkson tried to get hold of it in the in
terests OF his particular friends in the Repub-
I1can party, but William Penn Nixon put too
high price on it. But Walsh, being share
holder, will no doubt find way to secure con-
troll. If so, Horatio Seymour, who is consid-
cred one OF the ablest managing editors, will
be edftor-in-chief and the paper, which has
long been Republican, will be made free trade,
single gold standard and Democratic.
"But the silver men in the Democratic party
are not going to be left without an organ, and
I am reliably informed that o newspaper, to be
called the Enquirer, viii appear at an early
day in May under the editorial management
of Willis ]. Abbott. Mr.. Abbott is one of the
ablest opponents of the silver side of the cur
rency question.
1.-THE changes in journalism in Chicago are
numerous just now. Two weeks ago J. w.
Scott who owned the Times-Herald, died, and
MI. Kohlsaat purchased the paper for $7lO,OOO,
and has also become the owner of the Post an
evening paper. Mr.. Kohlsatt, who is one of
the best known newspaper men of to-day, is by
nature philanthropist, is very wealthy, and
will no doubt make brilliant success of this,
his second newspaper venture"
F. W. Kiesel, a member of the firm of Fred
]. Kiesel & Co.. who are large dealers in Califor-
mia wines in Utah, at the Lick House last night,
in speaking of the effect of the raise of prices
by the Wine growers' Association, said: cal
though the crop of grapes this year is going to
be much larger than it was last season the
growers are asking higher prices. And yet the
price Of wine to consumers is not going to be
raised appreciably. The people who will lose
by the raise in prices are the dealers, particu-
larly those big New York concerns that buy a
million or million and half gallons of wine
each season. They will not exactly lose, but
will not make such great profits as they usually
expect"

It's Your Affair.

Several fishermen, by this we
mean gentlemen who enjoy an
afternoons sport with a rod and
line, have recently asked why we
did not give attention through these
columns to the fact that the law in
regard to fishing with nets was be,
ing constantly violated in this sec
ton. The matter stands just in
this wise. It's the business of the
sportsmen to see to these things not
ours. Long ago we advocated the
matter of forming a fishing and
hunting club to take in Point Pleas
ant and other towns for the mutual
benefit of them and the good of this
end of the State. 1t is usually
made point with theNe organiza-
tions to see that there is no viola
ton of either the hunting or fishing
law. 1t is an easy matter to con-
troll when they are organized for it,
and then the violators expect to be
reported if caught. 1t is not for us
to call down the wrath of any one
or any dozen fishermen, by making
them subjects of attack for a frac-
ture of the law, such as is being
made by dozens each day.
