REPUBLICANS will have com- plete control of the Fifty eighth Congress which meets in extra session Nov. 9. Their majority in the senate will be twenty four, and in the house thirty. Many new faces are seen among the members who arrive in Washing ton. Twelve senators will see their first service, except for the ten days extra session of the sen- ate last spring. There will be 118 new members in the house, among them William Randolph Hearst who aspires to the demo- cratic nomination next year. MT. German will attempt to lead a united democratic minority in the senate and as he, too, has presi- dential aspirations, he will be watched more closely than usual. His resentment at the Presidents attempts to harmonize the repub- lican factions in Maryland to- gether with the fact that his brother has been dismissed from a position in the treasury de- partment, will not tend toward the increase of good feelings be- tween the leader of the demo- craic minority and the adminis- tration. Short, economical and business-like, is the republican program for the extra and regular sessions which precede the presidential election.

IN an address before a farmers

IN an address before farmers meeting not long ago one of the speakers said: "As 8 rule the farmer had no firmer friend than the country press. The home paper is distinctly the farmers own paper, supported directly and indirectly by farmers who compose the backbone of the subscription list, and largely for what the enterprising merchants advertise. Now, brothers, let us not forget our friends. Let us see that our subscription is paid up the first of January of each year in advance if we can afford to do it. The man or the paper that fights my battles shall have my support. Another thing, the merchants who advertise are the ones who make it possible for them to get a good local paper, and men or firms who are too pe- nurious to advertise and help the local press have no right to the farmers patronage. I propose to go to a live advertiser and a man who will do his share in support ing a local press, rather than buy of a man who proposes to take all and give nothing in return. If farmers as 3 class would support their friends the others would soon get out of business.

Webber reminds us forcibly of the fable of the ram and the gate post. A burly, old ram once took offense at a large gate post because it did not get out of his way, and backing off some feet the ram came at the post with a heavy lunge, expect ing to lift it off the earth. The post was large and steady, how ever, and was not phazed. See ing his fight was taking no effect the ram only became the madder, redoubled his energy and butted away harder and faster until he wore himself out all but a portion of the tail, which, when last seen, WIS putting away at the post. Webber's judgment has just about equaled that displayed by the ram and it is certain that his purpose has been no more effec- tive.

THE TRAPPING OF EELs.
Peculiar Industry in Oneida River
 Smoked for the Market.

Peculiar Industry ln Oneloa hlFtf-
 Smoked for the Market.
 A small out very interesting New York industry which is threatened with total extinction is the catching ofeels in eel traps in the Oneida River, at Caughdenhoy. For many years the residents of this pretty little village have built their eel traps. or weirs, year after year. without any fear of mole sration; but now they are face to face with a threatened lawsuit, which, if successful, will totally destroy their livelihood. The fight against them is being made by farmers living along the river bank, between Caughdenhoy and Oneida Lake, and along the western end of the lake, who claim that the building of traps causes rise in the river sufficient in many instances to flood their low lands along the water front. The suit, if brought, will doubt less be against the State, as the fisher men are permitted by law to build these traps; but the ultimate result would be, should the suit be successful, that the State would forbid their use. The phrase of the question is, troubling the fishermen very much, and this can be easily appreciated when it is stated that Caughdenhoy has been. built up practically on cells, there being no other business in the village, except farm ing ai limited scale. The fishermen claim, and wit happarent truth, that as their traps are never over fifteen in- ches in height, it is impossible for them to cause a rise in the river suffi- cient to flood lands lying two and three miles further up the river, let alone the western shore of the lake. It is probable that the excessively high waters of the last two years in that region have had most to do with the flooding of the low lying lands.
 There are fourteen of these eel traps, valued at about $1,O00, owned at Caughdenhoy and the maner of build ing them is as follows: Heavy stakes are driven into the bed of the river un- til they are just about even with the surface during a medium height of wa ter. They are driven in such a way that when completed they extend from shore to shore in the shape of an i'm mense "W," with the, open portion fac ing up stream. When in this shape it makes two traps, When only one is to be built the shape is ''V," with the open portion up stream. A framework of
The daily morning journal and courier., 1903-11-19

blanks is then built around these stakes. At the two lower tips of the
 "W'' a small opening is left, which is later occupied by the trap itself. This is usually made of lattice work, built either rectangular or rounded, and with the lower end of larger diameter than the upper. From the sides of the mouth long laths run back into the trap, until they almost meet in the centre, leaving only a narrow opening about four or five inches in diameter between the ends of the laths. During certain seasons of the year the eels migrate down stream to Lack Ontario and thence to the ocean, and it is then that the fishermen reap their harvest.
 When the eel reaches the side wall it sent way of escape; but upon wrig- follows slowly along this until it finds
 narrow opening which seems to pre-
 sent way of escape; but upon wrig-
 gling along it a few feet, it finds itself
 in the large end of the trap, with no
 means of escape.
 For many years each fisherman did all his own work, from the making of
 the trap to the marketing of the pro- duct; but few years ago the trust | fever seized even them, and they held
 meeting and decided that they would | combine; hence there is now only one | smokehouse among them all, while the | finished product is sold and the money equally divided, whether the fishermen | catches one eel or one thousand. In this way the losses and profits are di-
 vided in the same proportion.
 All the eels caught are smoked, none being sold fresh. As soon as brought ashore they are split from the head to
 the vent and the viscera removed. The
 head and skin are then taken off, after
 which the .eels are immersed in a
 strong brine for twenty-four hours.
 On removal from the brine they are washed with stiff brushes to remove
 the slime and surplus salt. They are
 then strung on iron or steel rods and hung in the smckehouse. A hot fire of kindlings and later of corn cobs is first used in cooking them. after which, the fire is covered with sawdust, which par tially smothers it, causing heavy and 1 dense smoke, which soon cures the fish. Great care must be exercised during the early stages for if the heat becomes
 too great the fish will curl up out of | shape. Smoked eels keep shorter l length of time than almost any other

 find there a ready market for all they

Readers Of Dwight Tilton's success ful novel. "On Satan's Mount will note curious coincidence in the recent publication of the report that John Mitchell, president os the United Mine Workers, would not be candidate for re- election, but would succeed George B. Cortelyou as secretary of the Depart ment of Labor of Commerce. It will be remembered that Philip Craig, the hero of MT. Tiltons political novel, whose scene was laid in the future, en- tered the presidents cabinet from the leadership of a great labor organization and that his appointment was to concil- fate the workingmen. While it is true that MT. Mitchell denies the report. it ie also true that there was substantial ba- sis for the rumor. Thus does the nov, elist sometimes furnish the shadows that forecast coming events.
