70 OBVATE DIFFERENCES
Washington and Oregon
Fishing Industries.
JOINT MEETING AT TACOMA
Recommended to the Two Legisls-
lures for Enactment.

An unanimous agreement has been
reached by the joint legislative com.
mittees of Oregon and Washington
touching fishing industries of mutual
interest to both states. They formu-
lated resolutions making such recon.
mendations as will, it is thought, OBJ
viate differences between the two states
arising from conflicting laws.
Among the points of agreement
reached may be mentioned the follow
ing:
Changes relative to the close season
for salmon fishing on the Columbia
river; the Sunday close law is to be
done away with; the Washington law
is to be made to conform with the Ore
gon law regulating the fall salmon close
season; the gill-net license is to be left
at So. 80, with the addition of an indi-
vidual license fee of 81 each for all
fishermen, as at present provided for in
the Oregon law; the set-net license
fee is to be raised in both states from
81 to SO. so; concurrent laws relative to
sturgeon lines on the Columbia river
are to be enacted: the appointment of
a joint commission to establish the
proper boundary lines is to be asked.
The agreements were reached at Ia
coma Saturday. The Oregon commits
sion consisted Of Fish Commissioner
Mcclure, Senators Reed and Daily, and
Representatives Myers, Curtis and Far
rell. That of Washington comprised
Fish Commissioner Little, Senators
Megler and MoReavy, and Representa-
tives Colwell, Sims and Daniels.
1t was concluded to recommend the
close-season proposition should begin
at noon. March !, and close at noon,
April 10. 1t was recommended to
make the Washington fall season con-
current with that Of Oregon-from
August 10 to September 10.
No settlement was arrived at on the
boundarv-line question. Both states
will probably appoint two citizens
each, who will select an engineer, con-
slider the matter, and submit drawings
and profles at the net biennial session
in each state

Cruelty to Spanish Prisoners.

New York, Feb. IA dispatch to
the Herald from Manila says: The
Spanish civil prisoners have not yet
been released. Tales of suffering,
hunger and dishonor come from the
provinces. Young Spanish girls are
forced to live in open with low born
natives. Their parents, being power
less, appealed to Aguinaldo. His reply
was letter from dishonored child

nation, in the name of God, to stop the

New Railroad to the Yukon.

New York, Feb IA dispatch to
the Herald from Washington says:
Several Iowa men have asked congress
to grant subsidy of $4,000 mile
for railway and telegraph line to the
Klondike. Representative Curtis, of

This company is to be capitalized at
$50. 100000. 1t is to have the right to

and deposited his burden inside the

''Therel" he said. Nov you can

1t took but a short time to finish
that path, for Simeon worked as he
had never worked before. He smiled
as he looked up and saw the smoke
ascending from the chimney. When he
went into the schoolroom, after stamp
ing the snow off his boots, he found
that KeZiah's fire was a roaring sue
cess. But perhaps neither the heat
of the fire nor the previous cold quite
accounted for the bright color in
Keziah's cheeks.
Simeon glanced around the room

\ BELATED REVOLT.

Simeon Walker sat on the top rail
1 the fence. He had stopped there in
The act of getting over. His rubber
booted legs were tired, so he rested
and roasted there.
The snow was a foot deep on the
level, and in places it was over the
stone walls. Simeon's tracks trailed
of across the field behind him. He
had come that way because it was
nearer, but when he had gone half the
distance he regretted it, and was
tempted to retrace his steps and go by
the road. After standing still and re-
decting for some little time, he had
decided to continue.
When he reached the fence he was
glad he had taken the field, otherwise
there would Lave been no excuse for
resting on the top rail of the fence.
He had a shovel with him and was
going mile up the road to help dig
out a drifted place.
Simeon sat on the fence till he began
to be little chilly; whereupon he con-
cluded that he was rested enough, and
jumped down on the other side, into
the road.
He had covered nearly half the dis
lance to the place where he was to
work, when he stopped suddenly in
front of the schoolhouse.
''Time-nation," he calculated under
his breath. He was staring at woman
who was making strenuous efforts to
dig a path up to the schoolhouse door.
AS she paused a moment for breath
she caught sight of Simeon. If he had

could hardly have looked more fright
ened and guilty.
''OhI'' she painted, 81 thought could
get it done before any one saw me-"
''Keziah Thatcher" he said, solemn
~, 81 thought you had more sense"
He took the shovel from her. It was
small fire-shovel. He looked at it
scornfully, tossed it into a convenient
bank and set to work with his own.
Don't some of the big boys dig the
paths for you?" he asked, sternly.
YES she remarked, but they are
always so late, and then the fire does
not get to going and the little children
suffer and take cold"
Simeon smiled grimly as he thought
that, at the rate she was going, she
would not have got the schoolroOm
much warmer than if she had left the
work to the boys.
"And BESIDES" Keziah continued,
apologetically, II didn't know it was
SO drifted."
Something in her voice made Simeon
turn and look at her.
You are cold" he said, gently.
what have you got on your feet?
Whew! Nothing but rubbers." He
looked obviously across the drifted
yard to the schoolhous-door. Then his
face cleared Where is the key?" he
asked
Keziah felt in her pocket and dreY
it out. He took it and without a word
turned and began p'--ving slowly
through the snow. When he reached
the door he unlocked it and opened it
wide, then returned to Keziah who was
watching him wonderingly.
Now" he said, as he reached her,
ct am going to carry you to that door,"
"Oh, no, please don't! can wait till
the path is made, perfec- ly well. I'm
not very cold, truly I'm not.
81 am going to carry you" said
Simeon, and there was a strange note
of command in his voice. Put your
arm around my neck-so. There, now
can carry you easily"
"Oh. Mr.. walker! I wish" she
protested, feebly.
Slowly and carefully he walked

INNOCENTS ABROAD.

The first reason why rich Americans
leave home to live in England is be-
cause social conditions there are fixed
and reliable, and because rich and
Door alike do as they please there with
a degree of liberty that is unknown
anywhere else ON the globe. 1t is true
that certain rich men and noblemen
take advantage Of this liberty and shut
themselves in their parks to spend
Sundays in feasting, riding, dancing,
and outdoor sports of lively and noisy
kinds, and that no one knows it at the
time except their servants.
On this account it is said by some
nArrow-minded critics in America that
our rich who stay in England do so
because they can give Sunday concerts
on a lawn beside the Thames, or can
dance and enjoy Music hall talent in
their country houses; but that is too
microscopic a definition of the liberty
of which 1 speak, and too discreditable
to our emigrants for me to adopt it.
It is simply fact that must be thrown
into the balance with the rest of the
conditions-this amazing freedom, this
absence of a prying press with its de-
