John l.. Wilson for Governor.

Port Townsend, Dec An it's
leading republican newspaper on the
west side of the sound, launches the
candidacy of former United States
Senator John l.. Wilson of Seattle for
governor. The editorial declares
that information has been received
from a definite source as to the lat
est ambition of Wilson, and the
faithful here are aghast at this move
on the political checkerboard of the
state in view of the avowed ambition
of Mead to succeed himself.
The Leader declares there is no
question but that Wilson will be q
strong candidate and points out to
it's readers that the presence of the
customs house, quarantine station,
Notifications, and, in fact, nearly ev-
cry federal expenditure in this part
of the state is directly and solely
traceable to his work when he was
in congress.
Referring to the dislike that I'M
doubtedly exists to Wilson among
the republicans of Washington, the
Leader declares it was nurtured by
jealous politicians, had no founda-
ton of fact and has now happily died
out.

OYSTER TRADE GROWS.
IMPROVEMENT IN METHODS
AND APPARATUS.
set This Year Was Almost Failure
and Resulted in Loss to Planter
TroubIe over Inspection Caused Ar
rests and Cases Are sim Unsettled.

The oyster trade in Connecticut ana
the cultivation Of oysters In Connecti-
cut waters have been enormously IN
creased during the last twenty-hveI
years, according to the annual report
Of the she'll fsh commission just sub
mitted to the governor. The Ffasons
for this are that continual readjust-
ment through knowledge gained by ex-
perience, and readaptation to changing
conditions, are constantly going on,
while progressive growers are con-
stahtly improving their apparatus and
methods.
The final statistics for the year end
ing September 80, 1906, does not vary
greatly from that of last year. The
buoylng OF the natural oyster beds has,
as usual, cost more than the entire re-
ceipts from the boat licenses, and the
commissioners have been compelled to
90 to the board Of control for relief.
The set this year was not general nor
profuse, and upon the great natural
beds it was almost failure. At the
same time work has been going on With
fair success on those BEDS theone and
two year old oysters furnishing a catch
which has paid reasonably, without be-
ing equal to the return Of the great
years.
Some Of the planters in favorable lo-
calities secured good sets, but others
lost the expense of Smelling, and the
taking up of the shells again for flu
ture use.
There has been some trouble in the
inspection of natural oyster beds this
year, and several arrests and seizures
of boats for dredging unlawfully on
private grounds. Some of the arrested
men were discharged, some have had
the cases against them appealed, and
the results are as yet unreached There
is a feeling in which the commissioners
| join, that the present arrangement for
| inspection and policing is not the best,
and that the law should be amended In
the interest of greater efficiency
An interesting point in the report is
that much progress has been made in
bringing the shell fish laws of Connect
lieut. into harmony with those of New
York and in the latter stats a b ill will
be presented to the incoming legislature
| to permit Connecticut fishermen to take
| lobste: in New York waters.

HERMoN H. WILLIAMS.

Hermon Hoadley Williams, who died
at his residence in Middletown last
Saturday, was a brother of Benjamin
D. williams of this city, and had many
friends here. He had been in Dreca-
rious health for some time, but the end
came very suddenly.
Owing to poor health Mr. Williams
was forced to abandon business last
March and went to New Hampshire.
The change did not produce the results
expected and he returned to Middle
town. where he led an out-of-door life,
his nights being spent for the most
part in a tent where he could have
pienty of fresh air The treatment
came too late, however, and he gradu-
allv failed IL health until the end.
He is survived by his wife, who was
Miss Jeanette Williams Of Middletown,
a son and two brothers. Mr. Williams
was a prominent member of the Amer
lean Mechanics and always took a
great deal of interest in the order.

MR.. BRUNDAGE IMPROVING.

Believed That He Will Have No Seri-
Gus After Effect from Losing Kid
ney,
South NorwalK, Jan Frank n.
Brundage, a wel-krown Norwalk
young man, employed in the office Of
Taylor & Goldsa, VINO had his right
kidney removed ut the Norwalk hospi
tai Saturday by DR.. lloyd, New YORK
specialist, assisted by Or. W. ]. Tracey
and DR.. A. n. Clark was resting COM
fortably last night, and, though his con-
dition is still serious, it is believed that
he win recover.
The kidney which was removed had
become displaced, resulting in disease,
so that the physicians considered their
action advisable.
1t is expected that Mr.. Brundage will
not have any serious effects in after
life. Dr. Tracey performed a similar
operation on a Norwalk woman about
five years ago and she is now in perfect
health.
