While the House has passed both
the tariff and the bond emergency
bills, the Senate is where the rub
comes. Republicans have plurality
but not a majority, Of that body, and
II all were agreed, which they are
not, especially on the bond bill, 9TH
er votes would be needed to pass the
bill.
Even the tariff bill may be defeat
ed Ia the Senate and the efforts Of
the republican House to increase the
revenue be lost. Without q clear and
reliable working majority in the Sen.
ate, the republicans cannot be sure
of getting any relief means through
at all.
As for the bond bill; there Is little
chance for that; and We need not be
surprised II while It Is being hung
up, or knocked about, In the Senate;
the President should ignore it's exist
ence and proceed to order another
bond issue under the old law.
With bitterly partisan Democrat
&c minority ready to oppose any means
that may come from the Republican
side; and a sprinkling of Populists
and some free silverites who are try
ing to make everything come their
way regardless Of consequences, the
task Of getting through any relief leg
islstion at this session, is not an easy
one.
1t is q great pity that the Senate of
this Congress, 10 not as strongly re-
publican as the House is 1t would
have been IL the voters could have had
their own way about It when they
elected the present House. Bat there
ought to he voters besides republicans
in the Senate ready to pass the tariff
emergency bill, II not the bond bill,
and thus send to the President a rev.
enue relief measure at once. II they
refuse to do this 1t will be because
they would rather defeat q Republi-

TO PROTECT THE FISH.

While every important form OF
fishing apparatus is now employed III
larger quantities than formerly, none
do so much damage as the pound
nets The number Of these nets has
increased enormously. In 1919, there
was only one fish pound in the State;
in 1891, there was 916. These ners
extend from the capes of Virginia,
on both sides of the bay, TO the
Maryland line, and numbers OF them
are found in our rivers. The fish are
obliged to pass these nets on their
way TO their spawning grounds and
it is impossible for enough TO escape
to keep up the supply.
While artificial means will do much
to increase the supply of our food
fishes, the judicious protection OF
those we now have is also necessary.
The slaughter of gravid fish by
pound-nets in the spring, when they
are passing TO their spawning grounds
is an outrage of growing proportions.
This slaughter means the failure to
exist of thousands of fish that other
wise might be born. Ii the authori-
ties do not take hold of the matter
and make and enforce laws for the
better protection OF spawning fish,
all of our finer varieties will soon
become scarce as terrapin. The time
was when there were plenty of ter.
rapin in all the bays and estuaries OF
the ocean. Greed led fishermen TO
take the gravid mother, and now a
terrapin is worth almost its weight in
gold.
The custom and policy today are
far behind the times, and instead OF
protecting and developing the fish
and game, we act like barbarians
and destroy them.
The hands of the Fish Commits
sioner should be strengthened by
legislation which should render the
removal of pound nets, and all other
forms of destructive apparatus at the
proper season possible, and the pro
pagation and distribution of young
fish encouraged to the fullest extent
Our present laws regulating fishing
with pound nets are valueless, be
cause of the facility with which they
are evaded
This class of fisheries pays no
specific tax to the State. They only
pay one dollar to the clerk OF the
court as license fee. Every pound
seine should be taxed, no seine paying
less than ten dollars.
The profits of these nets, in an
average season, when they are well
located, amount TO $500 or $1,000.
The United States Commissioner
of Fish and Fisheries estimates that
the yield of the shore fisheries
of Virginia, exclusive of shell fish,
crustacean and reptilian fisheries,
amounts annually to $GG5,000.

Entered at the Postoffice at Accomac
@. H, Va, as secondclass matter.

The session of the Virginia Legis
lature will expire on next Monday,
and the indications do not seem to
point to an extension beyond that
time. No matters of great public
interest, in fact. seem to demand it,
that cannot be disposed of in the few
hours that remain, if the bills now
pending before the Legislature could
be acted upon in the business-like
manner in which the members con.
duet their own affairs. Time enough
is left to pass upon all bills low

the reduction of the criminal eX-
penses of the State, vote is only

and election bills in the interest

nature--and whatever its errors of
omission or commission, they are
more likely to be enlarged than cor
rected by extending the time beyond

grave mistakes, and the opportunity
for doing so should not be given by
extending the time.
