years failed to make their appearance

Regarding the mackerel fishery, Com
missioner Nickerson says it was much
better in 1901 than in 1900. Capt.
Eben Lewis of BoOthbay Harbor was
high line in 1901 and 1902 in the mack
erel fleet. Many Maine shippers are in
charge of auxiliary and sailing vessels
from Gloucester and elsewhere and are
leaders in their lines. In 1901 the to-
tai catch was as follows: Fresh
mackerel. $4,000 pounds. valued at
sS3.4e6: sailed, 62i.400. valued at s32,-

AS second in value the ground fishery
in 1902 produced 46,27S,946 pounds of
fish worth SS92,02S, oil worth over $26,-
600 and tongues and sounds worth
| over $4,000. There We're 1868 men en-
gagged in this branch of the fishery
business. Knox county leads in this
| fishery. while Cumberland is second
and York third.
This fishery will be materially affect
ed by the Hay Bond treaty with New
| foundland. If ratified. it will allow
salt and dry Goldfish and cod oil into
| this country free, which will give New
| foundland an opportunity to send pre-
pared Goldfish all over our country. with
which we cannot successfully compete.
| 1t is well known that the United States
cannot produce fish as cheaply as
either Newfoundland or Nova Scotia.
therefore it stands US, in hand to look
sharply to see that the above men
| toned treaty is rejected.
Mr.. Nickerson says he is still an
| earnest advocate of bounty to be paid
! to our fishermen by the Sovcrnmcn nj
| and hopes to see Senator F'rye's subsidy
bill pass, especially that part which
provides a bounty to be paid owners
| and crews of fishing vessels. If he
| were asked to make suggestion as to
| this bounty, he would say the amount
proposed is not large enough.

Of the herring fishery, Mr.. Nickerson
says that this fishery continues to be
one of the most important industries
in the State. Many huncreds of people
are directly and indirectly engaged III
catching with nets, seines and weirs
and transporting. packing. picking and
smoking. The canning of sardines
gives employment to a greater number
OF men. women and children than any
other branch of the fisheries Ii is
safe to say that for the 2,516.07O cases
of sardines packed in this State for the
two years last past, ninety cents has
been expended for the one item Of Dor.
which means $2,31S.i62 distributed
among a class of people needing the
money. who pass it along to the great
advantage of the business enterprises
in the communities where they reside
There continues to be a good demand
for herring for bait from our own State
of Maine vessels and also for vessels
from other ports. Cold storage plants
in various places are filled with this bait
fish to be supplied at times when her
rins are not available from the water.
In 1af1 the catch was 1,6S4. 500
rounds and the value was s740.T43
There were 1857 men employed in this
fishery In 1902 the value of the pro-
duct was S57s,9i1 and 1888 persons We're
engaged in the fishery.
This fishery, as well as others, will be
seriously injured by the adoption of the
Hay-Bond treaty now before the
United States senate for ratification.
While our vessels seek Newfoundland
ports only when they cannot procure
bait in our own or Nova Scotian ports.

sailed are mostly smoked or bloaters
and are sold all over the country.
It is to be hoped that our Senators
in Congress will be able to defeat the
ratification of this treaty, which if it
becomes eff cctive will strike a crushing
blow to both Maine and New England
fisheries, says the commissioner. II
would recommend that their consti-
tuents show their interest in the matter
by surle form of vigorous expression Of
dissent from the provisions of the
treaty Maine cannot afford to give up
any of its present fish markets to New
foundlard for the very little that it is
offered in return"

there are different orin uns in regard 10
the length of the season for packing

THE FISHERIES.
Commissioner A. R. Nickerson
Makes His Biennial Report.
States That HOLSTERS are Not Becom.
ing Scarce in Maine.
Condemns the Hay. Bond Treaty With
Province Of wfoundland.

Hon. A. r. Nickerson of Boothbay
Harbor, commissioner of sea and shore
fisheries, has made his biennial report
TO the Governor and Council.
The report shows that all branches
of the fisheries are more intelligently
conducted than heretofore, that the in
dividual fisherman is better qualified
to carry on the business and perform
the work connecte-. with it's successful
| operation, and that as a consequence
the fisheries OF all kinds are more profit
ably conducted both for the owner
and dependent and independent fisher
| man than ever before.
There We're 427 vessels of a total ton
mage of 1868 tons and So steam and
sailing smacks in the several fisheries
and lobster transportation in the year
1901, and 1873 vessels of STA tons and
% steam and sailing smacks during the
year 1902.
The apparatus and appliances used
IN the fisheries are constantly increas-
| ing. the total value in 1901 being 81
ISO,234 and 1902, So, S64,040. In the year
l9O2 these vessels and machinery for
the capture of the fish were manned
and operated by no less than 1851
men, through whose efforts the magnif-
icent catch of s3,319,424 was landed.
This catch being reduced to weight,
| shows total for the year 1901 of al
most 1S5 million pounds.
The lobster fishery is very much the
largest in value of any single fishery
the total in 1902 being S1,226,561. In
N
gagged in lobster fishing. attending to
l11,17O traps, averaging 81 traps to
each man engaged. In the same year
this number of men caught 7,790,26
Holsters, averaging to each man
2S14; while in the year 1902, 2540 men
engaged in this fishery with 167,O45
traps, averaging IS traps to a man,
catching 8,1s5,342 Holsters, which aver
aged 1921 Holsters to each fisherman.
While so many people claim the lob
Ster is on the decrease, in our State
statistics for the past four years will
not bear out this statement, as will be
readily seen by the following figures:
In 1899. according to the report for
that year, there were in use in the
State traps to the number of 1856, 724
which caught 7,261,506 Holsters; in
1900. 1876 traps caught S,232,115: in
1901, 171,77O traps caught 1892 lob
sters; in 1902, 167,0i5 traps caught
S,1S5, 342 Holsters, which gives an aver
age yield to each trap Of So in
1899. Al in 1900, 46 in 1901, and As in
1902.
Knox county is considerably ahead of
any other county in the lobster fish
cry.
Mr.. Nickerson says that if the 1919
| inch law is maintained no State can
| ever equal Maine in the lobster fishery.
| He expresses the belief that the
/ United States lobster hatchery will be
| erected at Bcothbay Harbor early in
| the season of 1903. During the past
year 5.543 egg-bearing Holsters have
been taken from the Maine coast wa
tiers for the purpose of artificial prop
! agation.

Smyrna times., 1902-10-08

The New York banks say they are
short of money because the west and
south have drawn on them to move the
crops. Secretary Shaw offers to re-
lieve the situation by helping the
banks east and west, and now the
western banks go on record as saving
that they not only have all the money
they need, but are looking for good
investments for their surplus. Why
do not the western banks buy some of
the stock that their New York brethren
have boasted SO high and thus make

why 1t is t1at we always shake the
right hand? Probably you have never
thought about it at all or if you have
you think that the only reason for
using your right hand is that you were
taught not to use your left one, says
the Buffalo Courier. In reality this
custom. now so common, is a very an
cient one, and it originated in this way:
In the days when people were not so
peaceable as they now are and when
each man settled his quarrels in his
own way every man carried a sword
or dagger to defend himself. This
sword was worn on the left side, where
the right hand could quickly grasp it
for use in time of peril.
Therefore when a man wished to
show that he was friendly he extended
his right hand, which would be clasped
by the others right hand if he, too,
meant peace. Thus each could be sure
that the other would not draw his
sword.
With the dawn of more peaceful
times the custom lost its one time pur-
pose. but il still retains its original
meaning-to show friendship.
