Again the knowledge that only a very
limited number of salmon are now able
to reach their natural spawning grounds
makes il plain that much larger amour.
of seed supply must be produced in order
that the present supply of salmon be not
diminished. The need also OF better en-
foreement of the existing laws and that
other restrictions be added to those al
ready on the statutes are becoming more
evident each day. l am we'll satisfied that
the coming legislature viii be much more
liberal with the fisheries depar tment than
they have been in the few years past. With
the enforcement OF the laws. and with
proper means OF keeping up the supply,
the future for the fishing industry will be
bright In our state"

The report contains several recommen-
dations for new laws and changes in the
present laws that are OF general and vital
interest to the fishing industry.
Perhaps the change in the present law
proposed that viii excite the nve!iest in
terest on the Oregon side. IL the recon-
mendation that the closed seasons be as
follows: Early closed season. March IS to
April Is: late closed season, August % to
September n. The early closed season
dates correspond with those OF Oregon.
but the late closing dates are ten days
later than those provided In the Oregon
statutes
"I have understood" Mr.. Little says on
this point, that there WEI be some objec-
ton to the late closed season on the
part of the Oregon people. However. be-
sieve the dates recommended by me viii
give the greatest satisfaction on the Wash
ington side, and hope they will be con-
Cured in by the Oregon fishing interests"
One Of the new laws recommended for
washington is the adoption OF the Oregon
law, providing that all persons engaged in

Spokane. ! a. m. third day. instead Of

Seattle. . .. m. third day. instead OF

The gain in running time to Seattle and
other Pacific coast points IS about five and
one-ha1 hours Passengers will have one
night less on the train. Running time TO
the coast Will he sixty hours. and the aver
age speed Of the train will be about thirty
two miles an hour for nearly 2. 600 miles. an
achievement that will surprise Eastern
people, since the train crosses two Noun
tain ranges and passes through some rough
country, exhibiting great diversity of
climate.
Locals for intermediate Points.
The Great Northern will also put in SER

as the "Montana-Pacifc express which

Quicker Mail Service.


This advantage of Seattle is just now ac-
centuatsd by the new schedule which is to
go into effect on the Great Northern next
Sunday In connection with a quick
entng of time over the East
crn lines. For the present the only change
announced applies TO the westbound train,
though the 81 Paul papers speak OF a cor
responding change for the eastbound train,
and railroad men here believe that such a
change Will follow.
At first 1t was decided to call the new
train the Great Northern LimEted" but
THIS name has now been changed to the
Great Northern Flyer" a more descrip-
tive and vivid term.
The gain in time will be made both by
faster running and by closer connections.
The present running time between st. Paul
and Seattle is Exsy-fve and one-half
hours. The Flyer will make it In sixty
hours. The mail from the East now has
to lie at ST. Paul several hours. The Fly
err Will make almost immediate connection
with the Miiwaukee's new fast mail train
into st. Paul.
The Flyer will take the place OF train
No. 3. which now leaves st. Paul at 1:30 %.

Great Northern officials here have received
no notice Of any change in the saStbound
schedule
Northern Pacific officials IN ST. Paul said
that no action had been taken looking TO
meeting the fast time promised by the
Great Northern. They said they did no:
expect they world try TO beat the Great
Northern 10 the coast. They believed the
Northern Pacific would get Just as much
business by keeping 10 its present schedule.
Said General Passenger Agent Charles s.
Fee.
II have read The figures of the Great
Nerthern's second train. which they pro-
pose putting on January next. to run be-
tween ST. Paul. Minneapolis and Helena
and Butte. The Northern Pacific would
hardly be justified. with our present pas
senger traffic, III increasing its passenger
train mileage. Possibly later on there may
be such increase in business as to. warrant
the second train through to the Coast. or
at least half way; Il SO. we shall undouht-
edly furnish the accommodations
The inauguration of fast mail service with
the beginning OF the year will make
great many changes IN passenger train
schedules. The 500 is planning TO start it's
passenger train from Minneapolis east
earlier In the afternoon. Ii has already
changed the train westward from afternoon
to leave Minneapolis at o'clock in the
morning. The Milwaukee road viii start

law VIII also provide that those taking on.
such licenses shall be citizens and resi-
dents of the state in which they propose

Another feature OF the new laws pro-
posed will be the granting to the fish COM
