The fish trap men are trying to make it
appear that if the traps are abolished the
loss will amount up into millions Of dol
lars. The average trap costs about $500,
the greater part Of which is in the net,
so those who know say. If year is given
before the law becomes operative the nets
will be so worn that the loss will not ex-
coed 5000 per trap, or about 5000, 900 for
the 700 traps in the state. There are
millions OF dollars invested in the fishing
industry in the state which will be lost if
the traps are permitted to continue their
work of destruction, and the legislature
should not be deferred from protecting
and preserving this important industry
by the fact that few who have enjoyed
this special privilege may lose il few dol
lars of their extra earnings. Neither
should i. make any difference in their
action because the Fraser river Gamers
are opposed to the traps. The fact that
the traps injure these British Columbia
Gamers is no sign that therefore they are
a blessing to us. There are lot OF lingo
people in this country who always go on
the assumption that what is injurious to
any other country is therefore beneficial
to us, and vice versa. 1t is time legisla
ton upon such premises was abandoned
and our real interests looked after, with
out regard to whether others approve or
disapprove.

The Legislature has as yet taken no
action on any measure relating to the
logging interests, and the representatives
from this county will certainly be called
to account, whether they are to blame or
not, if some relief is not given the loggers
at this session We believe Mr. Koehler
and Mr.. Gilkey are both doing all they
can in this line, the latter having intro
duced good bill regulating boom COM
panies to take the place Of the Ubiquitous
Heath boom law, and which bill
provides that boom companies shall
be responsible for all logs consigned
to them, and pass without charge all logs
not so consigned. The loggers also de-
mand that all logs shall be scaled by an
official scaler, SO as to do away with the
general complaint that the mill companies
do not give a fair scale. A bill has been
introduced providing for an official scaler.
In order to be effective such law should
COMPEL the official scaling of all logs.

From lfoquam Washin9tonlan
A rich mineral strike has been made
in the Olympic mountains near Hoods
canal. 1t is claimed that the prospectors
have opened several lich leads and much
mineral is in sight. We hope this is true.
The best way into these mountains is by
way OF Cirays harbor.
The sight OF another vessel loading at
the North Western Lumber Co. s dock is
one that gladdens the hearts OF the bust
ness men OF IIoquiam. 1t has been eight
months since the last one loaded there
Now it is hoped this will be a regular
sight. There were three vessels at the
Wood mill this week, and another is due
at the lower mill.

1t is now pretty we'll settled that Ho-
GUAM will have a new ship yard and
that at least one and perhaps two
schooners will be built here this summer
Mr.. Fred Wood. the superintendent Of
the Wood company, which is interested
in the scheme, says that while he is not
prepared to say that the matter is def
nitely settled, he thinks it will go. Mr.
Matthews, who has ship yard at
Eureka, CAL, will move it here and
build the ships. The yard, if located,
will be near the Wood mill, and that
mill will saw the timbers for it. We
have been fooled so often by enterprises
of this kind, including railroads, water
works, ETC., that our people are getting
incredulous, but we believe that there is
in this foundation of fact. The gentle
men of the Wood company are not given
to talking to hear themselves talk, and
what "they say they do, they do do"
We sincerely hope it may be true. 1t will
be a great lift to the town, and there GER
tainly is no place on the coast where ships
can be built more cheaply than right
here. Success to the ship yard.

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twentyfour
hours; a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent
desire to urinate or pain in the back 3,
is also convincing proof that the kid
news and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge
SO often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in relieving pain In
the back. kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part Of the urinary passage.
1t corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times in the night to urinate. The
mild and the extraordinary effect OF
Swamp Root is soon realized. 1t
stands the highest for it's wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases. Ii
you need medicine you should have
the best. Sold by druggists, price fifty
cents and one dollar. You may have

A Dangerous Possibility.

The death quite recently of a switch
man from heart disease suggests the
possibility of dreadful tragedy. A
man who was acting as switchman
was found dead in his shanty, with
some of the switches out of order.
He had died suddenly before he had
replaced the switches as they should
be and it was only because he was
discovered before a train was due
that a casualty was averted. Moth
ing the dramatic author can devise
could make a stronger and more SEN
sational situation than d misplaced
switch. an on-coming fast passenger
train and switchman dead at his
post.
This is not all fancy sketch either.
DR.. Franklin Miles, undoubtedly the
highest authority on diseases of the
heart, president of the Miles Medical
company, Elkhart, Ind, and whose
Heart Cure stands alone as the stand
ard remedy for this malady, when
questioned on the subject, said that
it is a we'll known fact that one person
in every four has weak or detected
heart and that a number OF railway
as well as other corporations, employ
ing men in responsible positions, are
seriously considering the subject of
having employees periodically pass
a physical examination, with view
to ascertaining if their hearts are in
any way seriously affected. Mime

Money for Mrs. Lalone

One item in the general deficiency
bill, recently passed by congress, is
an appropriation of $4,000 to be paid
to Mrs. Lalone, of this place, upon her
judgment of nearly 500 against
the United States. The balance will
not be paid at present, but in all
probability will receive the attention
of congress at its next session.
1t will be remembered that in 1888
Joseph LalOne, now deceased, was
granted pension of $50 per month
and back pay, amounting to about
So, 200 Later an action was commenced
in the United States court for the
eastern district of Wisconsin to cancel
the pension certificate and recover all
the money paid. The trial of the case
lasted for several years and resulted in
a victory for the government. A farm
purchased with portion Of the money
was sold by the United States marshal
and, for the time being, Mrs. Lalone
lost everything previously granted.
Her attorney, J. E. Malone, appealed
the case to the United States supreme
court and the decision was reversed.
He secured the big Judgment for his
client and it is now being paid back
to her, with interest Juneau Tele-

Wisconsin Dairy School.

4 new circular from the University
of Wisconsin dairy school, located at
Madison, is being Distributed to those
interested in this line of instruction.
Since 1892 the school has occupied
its present building, which, with
equipment, represents an outlay of
$4,000. During the past seven
years there has been a total attend
ance of 665 students, about one-ffth
of this number being non-residents.
The school can accommodate 100
students, and applications are al
ready being received for the next
term, which begins November 80 and
continues twelve weeks. The daily
work Of the students includes two
lectures of one hour each and four to
six hours work in the creamery,
cheese factory or pasteurizing room.
At the Wisconsin state fair, last fall
former dairy school students took
eleven out of a possible sixteen prizes
offered for creamery butter and
cheddar cheese.
The circular gives map of Wiscon-
sin, showing the location of 900
creameries and cheese factories oper.
ated in 1897 by former students OF
the dairy school.
The fees for resident students have
been reduced to So, while non-resi
dents must pay $50 fees. Fifty-twc
dollars is an estimate of students
expenses during the term.

The Road Hog.

The brand described below by The

The mayor and street commissioner
took the grader Monday and scraped
a fine bicycle path each side of White
water avenue, much to the satisfaction
of the wheelmen. 1t was interesting
of wagons and carriages are deter
mined to push the irrepressible conflict
between the wheelmen and the narrow
tired vehicle to a finish. Not ten
minutes had passed before driver
of a wagon made narrow streak on
the path and cut it up with his horses
hoofs to the best of his ability. The
path had been scraped where the
green grass had waved calmly but a
few minutes before. However, the
old road was not wide enough for him.
He could not use the highway unless
he was interfering with the rights of
others. His attention was called to
it, but his only answer was to drive
farther out until his load nearly tipped
over from the slant he was making.
Now, this man is type all too COM
mon, though happily growing fewer
in number. The ''road hog Of last
year may have bought bicycles for his
sons and daughters this year, and
have had his road hoggishness set be-
fore MIN in such a manner as to make
him ashamed of himself. Still, there
are enough left to cause the wheelmen
many aches and pains, as they
jolt over the rough holes left by hoofs,
or get thrown to the ground by a
wagon or carriage rut being where it
did not need to be-on the side path.
