The Maine Sportsmcn's Fish and
Game Association in asking tor an
appropriation fer $4,000 for the fish
ing interests submitted statement of
facts. which places before the com
mitten the exact needs for that pur-
that the amount asked fer is none too
great q sum Tor the purpose desired.
The following is a part of the state
ment submitted.
The State commenced IA years ago to
appropriate $4,000 annually for the
propagation of fish, care of fish hatch
cries. and all that pcrtainrd to the
fishing interests.
Then the State had two small and
insignificant fish hatchcrieS, one at
Edes Falls and one at Auburn.
Since that time six large modern
fish hatcherics have been built. rs
follows: at Caribou. Moosehead Lake.
Lake Moxie, North Belgrade Mon
mouth and Rangelcy Lakes. and the
small hatchery at Enfield. which had
been abandoned has been put in opera
ton.
Therefore for the past several years
there has been an increase of six
hatcherics of modern construction and
equipment, without any increase of
appropriation to operate them.

quoted in Tariff Interview.

President-eIect Deliberately Mis-
quoted In Tariff Interview.
NEW YORK, Feb. y.-President-elect Taft
made a vigorous protest last night against
what he said was an absolute misrepresen-
tation in certain, New York afternoon news
papers as to what he had said during the
day in answering questions regarding tar
if revision.
He had stated, he said. that the present
business depression was undoubtedly due
in a large measure 20 the fact that the
tariff is to be revised at an extra session
Of congress to meet March 1b, that it was
Of the highest Importance that this work
OF revision should not be delayed, but exc
cuted with all diligence. Mr.. Taft also said
he favored the idea of a permanent tariff
commission, the plan for which should be
worked out with elaboration. the duties OF
such commission to be to make a careful
study Of the operation Of the proposed
new tariff law. to the end that suggestions
might be made in the future, which would
tend to place the whole question of the
tariff on a more certain and scientific
basis.
Upon this statement Mr.. Taft was made
TO say that the present tariff schedules
were responsible for the present business
| depression, out II lneS were revised Nneif
own parents would not know them, all OF
which was amplified at length and made
positive by appearing to pe a vigorous and
enthusiastic statement.
President-E1ect PertuFbed.
Mr.. Taft was particularly perturbed' over
what ne called a misapprehension, ~particu-
iarIy in view Of the weight which is given
his words, because OF his official position
He had, he declared, changed his position
In no way. and held the same views he
had publicly announced during and since
the campaign.
The subject OF the tariff came UP today
because of a call on Mr.. Taft by Mr.. ]
w. Van Clesve. president Of the Nationa
Manufacturers association. in which tho
subject OF a tariff commission was men,
toned.
Mr.. Taft spent the day at the " w. Tsfi
