fish begin coming up the coast in the
spring boats are at the capes to meet
them. Oae or two boats would not
matter much, but when a fleet If
steamers strike into them they are
sheered off their course, make for
deep water. and in this way pass our
capes before coming inshore again.

SOME OYSTER MATTERS.

Oystermen of York propose to
memorialize the Legislature to amend
the existing laws in regard to inspec-
tors, and enact measures making the
office entirely within the gift of the
people, and elective just as any Of
the rest of the county or state offic-
ials may be. The idea strikes q re-
sponsive chord and is concurred in
by nearly everybody. The reappoint-
ment of these officials by the State
Board of Fisheries takes place in
early spring.
The first annual convention of the
Eastern Shore leagues was held at
Chincotesgue last week. Delegates
from the various leagues were present
and met In secret session morning
and afternoon. At night in the
Union Baptist Church there was q
mass meeting of oysterman, addressed
by prominent speakers. 1t was the
sense of this convention that the
lines of the Baylor survey must be
held as they are. Money was raised
to defray any legal expense necessary.
