ness. After the meeting It was announced
that no news OF the doings would be

when the news Of the action OF the coun-
ell is made public
The students cannot reason out any 9TH
or theory for delaying the announcement
of what was done I'm tho meeting Of the
University council.
The resolutions presented 60 the coun-
ell by the students were strong In tone
and claimed among other things that the
students feel that il was unjust that no
hearing was given to the Football asso-
citation before ordering that 81 be dlsband-
ed. and that the abolition OF the game Of
football and the disbandIng OF the foot
ball association by the faculty have been
rendered with an absolute disregard OF tho
right OF the students OF the university 10
participate I'm such amusements as are
healthful and proper.

TwENTY-FOUR TRAPS

Ffshing-Pack of Port Townsend
Sardtne Cannery.

Twenty-four of the traps owned by
the Pacific American Fisheries Com
pany on Puget Sound are to be op-
Grated during the coming season.
This is nine more traps than were
used last year, but this season is ex-
pected to prove the big 'four-year
cycle" when a record run can be ex-
pected. The other Sound cannery
companies will also increase the num-
Der of traps compared with those in
service in 1904, and the general be-
lief is that there will be a greatly in
creased catch. During the big sea-
son of 1901 the P. A. F. Co. operated
forty-two traps in Puget Sound wa
ters. Last season only fifteen were
but at meeting of the
directors held recently it was decided
to have enough of them in readiness
this year to keep the big cannery
busy, if the run should turn out as
large as expected.

An OREGON Nursery Contract

An Oregon nursery company has
s'taken in" quite number Of fruit
growers in this county by selling
them nursery stock, including Eng
lish walnut trees, at exhorbitant
prices, the orders being taken on a
printed form of contract (printed, by
the way, in very small type), which
purchasers are required to sign and
under the terms of which they are
required to pay for whatever the
nursery company pleases to substi-
tute for stock ordered The pur-
chaser agrees as follows:
II agree to come or send for the goods
purchased herein on the day set for de-
livery, at which time said goods are to be
in good order, but after that date will be
at my risk, and if through any unavoid-
able delays the goods should not arrive
on the date set for delivery, agree to
come again for them upon being notified
when they are ready for delivery, and
make no charge for second trip. If the
varieties herein named cannot be sup
piled, others of the same class adapted to
the same locality and ripening at tho
same time may be sent instead. Prices
of any articles omitted to be deducted at
settlement. It is agreed that the entire
contract is written and printed herein.
and that no agreement or outside bargain
by the agent shall in any away affect this
cantract, and agree not to cOuntermand

New Road Law

1t is reported from Olympia that
a new road law, repeating the present
law but not making any very inpor-
tant changes, will undoubtedly be
enacted. 1t will provide that county
commissioners divide their counties
into districts of suitable size and that
road supervisors be named to draw
salaries of SO per day. In addition
to other duties they shall collect the
poll taxes of all citizens liable there
for, living in the district. For this
service they shall receive 16 per cent
of the amount collected. In the past
it has cost 30 per cent to collect the
poll tax, averaging the amounts paid
in all the counties. A tax of 4 mills
shall be levied by the county commits
sioners with which to build roads and
bridges, and this sum shall be paid
out on contracts for work done and
material furnished, as approved by
the supervisors and county commits
sioners. Citizens will be allowed to
contract for any work, and they may
do any repair or new work under
salaries, up to an amount aggre-
eating $50. Cities and towns viii
be allowed 20 per cent of the taxes
collected within the boundaries OF In
corporations to be applied to streets
and bridges not under the supervision
of the county. The poll tax is fixed
at So for every male citizen between
the. ages of 21 and 45 years. Not
more than A mills can be levied for
road and bridge purposes in any one
year.

The Modern Smuggler

A smuggler was about to be over
hauled the other day by a revenue
cutter. This smuggler was undoubt-
edly loaded with opium, and to save
himself he voluntarily heaved his
cargo overheard. Taken without
the contraband he could not be held.
The smuggler sacrificed his profits
and saved his skin.
Though smuggling is an out.awed
occupation, the smuggler has been a
creature around whom no end OF
romance has been woven. But
princes and pirates, boots and buc-
cancers have also been associated in
literature. The smuggler of romance,
however, was the smuggler of other
days, often pictured as the creature
of an oppressive monarchial environ
ment. He deied the cruel king and
disregarded unjust customs regula-
tions. He was the product of imag-
ination, justified, perhaps, by the
conditions under which men lived a
century ago.
Smuggling today is a sordid occu-
patton. There is nothing to justify
it. Men become smugglers that they
may make big but Legitimate
profits, preferring the risks attend
ant upon such an occupation to or
derlv law abiding conduct. The
smuggler is common rufian who will
often conceal his unlawful operations
behind worse crimes. Few of them
would have any scruples at cracking
the head of an officer who menaced
their acts or liberties.
The San Juan islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1905-03-04

In reporting the arrest OF smuggler
Larry" Kelly in Whatcom county
with sixty pounds of opium in his
possession the papers refer to him as
''Red" Kelly also. It is a common
error. "Red"-and ''Larry" are two
different individuals. The one thing
they have in common is their con-
firmed propensity for smuggling
opium and Chinese. ''Red" is rather
partial to the islands of this county
as base of operations and is not an
infrequent or unwelcome visitor at
Boyce's bay, Mitchell bay and Henry
island He has made his headquarters
on Henry island for some months.
