ALAskA,s GREAT FISH RIVER

How many readers of the Companion
ever heard of the Nushagak Riverr
Not many, it is safe to say Yet the
Department of Commerce and Labor
pronounces this river of Western
Alaska zone of the important fishing
streams of the world The fish which
the Nushagak furnishes is salmon. the
taking, canning. freezing and sailing
of which is shown by a recent report
issued by the Department of Commerce
and Labor. The first two canneries
were built in 1873. Since then the num-
Der has increased until in 1902 there
were sixty-four establishments. which
put up more than 2.5O0.0OO cases. Low
prices since then have somewhat re-
duced both the number of canneries and
the output: nevertheless. since canning
began in Alaska nearly 22.000.O00 cases
have been sent out. In order to pro-
vide some counterpoise to this tremen-
dous drain the packers combined TO
start hatcheries. These have been car
ried on with important results and in
creas sing success In 1905 the United
States Bureau of Fisheries took UP the
work, in addition TO what had been
done by the packers. There are now
nine hatcheries. from which about
450.o00,000 fry have been liberated

ORDER CHANGES IN
THE CHARTER

BERKELEY, Dec 1.-two hours
discussion by the Town Trustees last
night OF the proposed new charter re-
suited IN the elimination of a few
minor features. One OF these was the
provision that no municipal department
shall spend more than one-twelfth of
it's allotted funds during any month of
the year. The Street Department, it
was explained, spends the greater part
of its fund during the summer months
and would be embarrassed by the pro-
posed provision.
The Trustees disapproved OF a pro-
vision that forbade town officers from
comforting with the Mayor regarding
municipal appointments, and this was
stricken out. ,s
The woman suffrage feature of the
charter, providing for women on the
Board of Education and for women's
votes in electing school directors, with
the locai-optionby-w wards feature and
others of especial significance, were not
touched last night.
Saloon men and church men met at
the session OF the Trustees, prepared
10 argue the question of prohibition of
saloons and to discuss the order re-
voking all liquor licenses made last
Monday night. The Trustees, however.
devoted all their time to talk on the
charter.
