Destruction of Fish.

During the latter part of the past
and the early part of the present
week occurred a most wanton de-
struction of wholesome food, of
which tons went into decay. We
refer to the super-wholesale de-
struction of mountain trout, a spe-
cies of fish that commands high
price everywhere. The reservoir
has been supplied with water from
Canyon and Rattlesnake creeks,
streams hitherto teeming with these
delectable fishes, of which unfor-
tunately the greater portion found
their way into the large body of
water supplied by these mountain
streams. For some purpose the
water was turned out Of the reser-
voir last week and as a consequence
tons of the fish, mostly all speckled
trout, are piled along the banks of
the reservoir and the creek below,
dead and decaying.
Many people here awaited them
selves of the opportunity as
chance for lifetime, and without
much exertion secured quantities
of the fish alive in hundred pound
lots and upward, and sailed them
down.
1t is feared that this occurrence
has about depleted the creeks and
their mountain tributaries of fish.
Some preeaution against such
wholesale, reckless slaughter should
have been made. The state game
and fish commissioner should look
the matter up and see if the law
has been violated, and if SO, bring
,he offender to justice. If there is
40 law against committing such a
vanton waste, our next legislature
should enact one and prevent a
'epetition of this destruction.

one moves slower. We had reason
to expect by this time to see at least
four or five hundred men and teams
at work on the grade between this
place and Caldwell. But when the

Miss Mabel Payne, in company
with a jolly party from Atlanta,
was at Stanley basin on the 18th.
They were on their way to big red
fish lake and were having a glorious
time, though apparently shut out
from the outside world, because they
had not received any mail for over
a week. Hon. Frank Wyman,
with pack animals, had left Atlanta
for the lakes, but his animals got
away from him and Mr.. Wyman
was compelled to foot it in to camp
without the expected letters and pa
pers which the crowd of pleasure
seekers fondly hoped to receive.
The State Board of Equalization
met in Boise last week. The as
sessment on the Short Line railroad
from Pocatello running west was
decreased from $3.50 to $3.50 per
mile. All telegraph lines were as
sessed at $55 per mile. Stock horses
were equalized at the price of not
less than ~ per head. Where the
assessment shows a less assessment
than this amount, it will be raised,
but where the assessment is larger
it will be allowed to stand. The
equalized price on stock cattle was
fixed at $22 per head, and that OF
sheep at 1916 per head, both the
same as last year. In merchandise
the following raises were made,
there being no reduction: Ada 5 per
cent, Bear Lake 2 per cent, Bing-
ham 10 per cent, Gilmore s per cent,
Latah % per cent, Nez Perez 10 per
ct, Oneida l0per cent, and Bannock
10 per cent.

The Trust Robbers.

Special Washington correspond
ent of Salt Lake Herald: "Hers
are a few of the reasons given by
the Democratic national committee
why the "plain people" are not in
clined to meekly accept the in
spired statements of the trust or
gans and speakers showing what a
natural, necessary and benefiicent
institution the trust is;
1t requires so per cent more
wheat to buy stove than it did
in 1896.
1t requires 90 bushels more corn
to buy wagon than it did in 1896.
1t requires 100 per cent more
corn or wheat to buy a copper ket-
tie than in 1896.
1t requires twice as much corn to
buy coil of rope as in 1896.
1t requires 40per cent more grain
to buy pillow than in 1896.
1t requires rs per cent more grain
to buy hoe, rake or a shovel
than in 1896.
A set of common wheels that cost
81 in 1896 now cost $12.
The price of cultivators and other
farm implements has gone up pro-
proportionately.
Galvanized barbed wire costs
from 81 to $3.50 per hundred more
than in 1896.
1t requires 40 per cent more corn
or cotton to buy pound of sugar
than in 1896.
You have to pay 40 per cent
more for glass than in 1896.
Freight rates have climbed back
to the exorbitant figures which
caused a popular revolt in legisla-
ton a few years ago.
The price of oil, coal, lumber,
tools and hardware has gone up
from 40 to 100 per cent.
And all these things have been
done by trusts.
A trust robs you waking or sleep
ing, eating or drinking, working or
idle, living or dying, and the coffin
trust gets you in the end.
BUT wages do not go up-and
yet you find some working people
advocating the reelection of VIM.
