Very few merchants adver-
tised. In fact, there were no news
papers to advertise in. Now, how
ever, an up-to-date grocer must tell
people what he has and the prices
which he charges. Then he must
live up to his promises. This last
everybody in Jasper knows that we
always do. If We didn't We should
not have been able to maintain the

we have done.

FISH COMMISSIONERS.

They Have Decided to Cease Stocking
the Truckee River.
The Board of Fish Comm issioners met
yesterday. The secretary reported that
Deputy AL Wilson had made another sue
cessful raid upon the illegal fishers on the
Russian River and on Friday night secured
two large set salmon nets.
Commissioner ]. Morrison and Deputy
Babcock will this week go to Folsom to
examine the new tish-ladder constructed
on the Folsom Electric Power Company's s
dam. The dam is eighty-nine feet high
and the ladder, to permit fish to get over
the obstruction in the river, cost over
$4,000. 1t is built OF rock ana cement, and
in its construction great engineering diff
culties had to be overcome.
A. n. Buckman OF the South Fork Ditch
Company accepted the plans for the fish
ladder TO be constructed on the east side of
the American River below Auburn.
The commission decided to discontinue
stocking the Truckee River in California.
The Truckee is the outlet of Lake Tahoe.
and all the fish in their annual runs go
down the river. On account of the
wretched condition of the fsh-ladders at
the dams IN Nevada they are unable to re-
turn to the headwaters. Thus the Califor-
MIA commissioners have been providing
excellent fishing for the people of Nevada.
and they are determined not to put any
more fish in the river until the people Of
Nevada see that good ladders are put in
the Truckee, so that the fish can travel in
the river in both States.
