 Senator Jones. writing to the New York Jonrnal, says of he future Of the demoratic party:
 "Fhe conditions of distress existing all over the country are emphasizing more and more every day the fact that the great overshadowing issue before the American people is that of monetary orm-bimetalliem The Democratic party unequivoeally settled it's position upon this in July last. This will remain the leading issue in American politics until it is set tied right. The present effort to force upon the country the most extreme measure of tariff taxation ever proposed, more extreme. even, than the Mckinley bill, will meet solid Democratic op- position, as well also all other Re publican efforts to build up trust < and other dangerous combination oi capital. There is but one Democratic party, and in its struggle along the lines indicated above 1t will natually attract tO itst If all clements i'll sym pathy, with it's purpose. while those opposing it's principles will as natur- ally go to the Republicans.

CONTIGUOUS FISHERIES.
A Permanent Joint Commission to Take
Charge of Them Has Been
Recommended.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 25.-The
President has sent TO Congress the re-
port Of the Joint commission representing
the United States and Canada relative
to the preservation of the fisheries in the
waters contiguous to the United States
and Canada as provided by the joint
agreement of 1892 between the United
States and Great Britain. The subjects
dealt with are the limitation or preven-
ton of exhaustive or destructive methods
of taking fish and she'll fish in these
waters and also in the waters of the open
seas outside of the territorial limits of
either country to which the inhabitants
of the respective countries may habitually
resort for the purpose of such fishing;
the prevention of the polluting or obstruct-
ing such contiguous waters 10 the detri-
ment of the fisheries or navigation; the
close season eXpedlent TO be enforced and
observed in such contiguous waters by
the Inhabitants OF both countries as res
poets the taking of several kinds OF hsh
and shell fish and the adoption of prac-
tical methods of restocking and repien-f
ishing such waters with fish and she'll
fish and the means by which such fish
life may be preserved and increased.
The fisheries to be covered by the COM
mission included the entire fisheries of
the Atlantic sea cosst and the lake and
river fisheries in general between the
province of Ontario and the border States
from New York to Minnesota, inclusive;
Rainy Lake and river and Lake OF the
Woods, between Ontario and Manitoba:
the Coium pia River, which crosses the
international boundary line from British
Columbia into the State of Washing on;
the Fraser River, Gulf of Georgia, Puget
Sound and Straits OF Juan de Fuca, con-
tiguous to the British Columbia and
Washington.
ALI these waters except Rainy Lake and
Colum bia River were visited by the COM
mission. They found it impossible to con-
slder fully all the questions which the
subject presents and were unable in many
cases 70 reach more than general conclu-
sions
Their. observations dem onstrated the
inexpediency of attempting to regulate
any of these fisheries by a rigid code OF
enactments owing to their constantly
changing character and conditions.
They recommend therefore a permanent
Joint commission which shall have
direct supervision Of these fisheries
and be empowered to conduct the neces-
sary investie alions and to institute such
notifications in the regulations as cir
cumstances may demand.
