THE MARYLAND FISH LAWS

Dear Sir: Your favor of the 5th inst.
forwarding letter of Mr.. James F. Solt,
of Frederick, Md, who writes under date
of January Goth, 1901, and makes various
suggestions for improving the laws reg
ulating the catching of bass and other
| fish in the waters of his county, was
handed me this morning.
The suggestions which Mr.. Solt throws
out are quite in line with the laws now
| in force on the Potomac river and which
| we hope to have made uniform through.
out the State when the next legislature
meets, and hope that Mr.. Solt will use
his best endeavors to impress upon the
| members from his county the importance
of these laws and the necessity of theil
passage if they desire to see the Monocacy
and other Frederick county streams filled
with fish for the benefit and amusement
of their constituents without prejudice OF
| favor to any one class of citizens, but that
| there may be enough fish in the rivers to
satisfy the appctitcs of all regardless of
condition in life.
Now is the time, in my opinion, when
| everybody throughout the State, who has
at heart the true interests of fish and
fisherman, whether fishing for profit OF
pleasure, as well as the interests of those
| who purchase the fish for the sustenance
| of themselves and their families, to bestir
| themselves in the matter of SO modify
ing and changing the existing laws and
the manner of enforcing same, that they
may be made uniform throughout the
various counties, to the benefit of all
equally and not as now, only for the
benefit of small favored class who
mostly live at or near the months of our
| numerous rivers and who with their large
pound, stake and purse-nets and other
contrivances for the wholesale destruc-
ton and catching Of fish prevent the fish
from going to the upper waters of the
streams and thus destroy the opportuHi-
ties of those who live in the back coun-
| try from the pleasure and profit of catch
| ing their supplies close to their own
homes and farms.
A large portion of the laws as they now
exist unquestionably favor only certain
small class of fishermen, who also seem
to have sufficient political influence to
prevent the enforcement of the few good
laws now on our statute books, which
were evidently intended to prevent this
| wholesale destruction of the fish for the
benefit of the few but to the detriment
of the majority of the citizens of our
State.

Henry Braun,

Mr.. Brauns has given much time and
attention to the study of the Maryland
fish laws and is an active worker for their
betterment. Not only does Mr.. Brauns
study these conflicting and in some in
stances inequitable laws with care, but
his suggestions are always practical and
just We hope others will follow his ex-
ample and give to the press of the State
their views and the benefit of their cx-
perience, not only in effort to increase
and protect our fish supply, but the sup
ply of game as well. The columns of
the Times and Alleganian are open to all

examination =, IN! shows that. the: interest
and sinking fund Of the capital sum
can be easily met with very e!emen-
tary reform in the financial system of
the empire. An enormous saving can
be made by doing away with the tribute
rice system. At present two great rice
growing provinces, Anhai and Kiangsu,
are obliged to send up to Pekin annual
y something over 100000 tons of rice.
Ibis is supposed to be collected in kind
from the farmers, but the officials real
y collect the tax in money, fixing the
cate at which the farmers commute at
about two and half times the market
price. The required quantity Of rice is
then bought in the market by the Off
Gals, and here the Government begins
~ losing three-ffths Of the money actu-
ally paid by the farmers. This rice is
then shipped in junks by the Grand
Canal, and in steamers by the sea route
to Tien-tsin, and 80 per cent is allowed
Tor waste and damage on the way.
A further loss accrues to the Govern
nent In that the crews of the junks al
ways take a quantity of general cargo
On their own account, on which they
pay no duties, the junks being protected
by the imperial flag. When it gets to
Pekin the rice-what is left of it's nut

supposed to do; they get warrants for a
certain quantity, which they are obliged

they are given, perhaps, 80 per cent of
the face value of the warrant. The in
senlous can calculate what the Govern
ment would save If it still collected the
TAX IN money in these provinces. and
then paid it's pensioners and troops in
money allowing them to buy their rice
IN the open market. A much larger saw
ing could be made If the present system
OF taxation and distribution of salt were
aooi'shed' and the salt were bought by
the Government where it is cheapest

Pantry requirements are a tribe par
adoxical, in that they are air and light
and darkness. A pantry window Is es-
sential, even if it be no more than a
tiny two-light sliding sash, set anyhow
in the outer wall. A regular window
is much better. 1t need not waste
wall-space-shelves, but can be so placed
across it as to admit its working. But
If pantry can be allotted as much as
six feet Of house wall it is better to
have the window set crosswise. with
the lower edge little more than breast
high. Then, by making one sash of
glass, and filling the other with wine
gauze. the pantry can have a handy
outdoor closet. Have a tight deal par
tition running out from the sash d.
vision, as far as the space permits.
Put shelves around three sides Of the
