In the early days of ''hooch and sal mon'' in Alaska seines and gilnets were used. Now, however, stationary traps have, to large extent. taken
 the place of the old method. Says the Pacific Fisherman. A visit to the fishing grounds today show that when
 ever it has been possible to place trap one has been placed and according ly the salmon stand but a poor chance
 indeed to get to the creeks and rivers
 where they spawn-were it not for the thirty-si hour weekly closing of traps and the suspension of all fishing as provided for in the fisheries act. In order to assist in the propagation of the salmon five hatcheries are operated in Alaska, one by the govnerment and the others by companies who run can neres. Two hundred million fry are annually liberated from these hatcher ies. Some of the fry when liberated are marked by the removal of certai n
 fins and from statistics kept it is learned that nearly 10 per cent. of the fry so liberated and marked re- turn in about three years. There have
 been known instances, ho sever, where 20 per cent. of the marked fry llber- ated have returned at the expiration of three years. Without stringent laws it would only be matter of short time when these waters, now so plen- tifully supplied with salmon, would be depleted. One of the sections of the
 fisheries act regarding salmon fishing in Alaskan waters provides for the cessation of fishing every week from 6 o'clock D. m. Saturday, until 6 o'clock a. m. the following Monday in order to allow the salmon to proceed unhindered to their spawning grounds ; and those who are engaged in the in- dustry, especially those who use traps to catch the fish, are conversant with the laws, but it developed last season that the particular provision dealing
 with the weekly closing was followed more in the breach than in the obser.

verance. Just as the run of salmon in Alaskan waters commenced last year Fisheries Inspector John N. Cobb, who has his headquarters in Juneau, thought it migh1 be interesting to as- certain how faithfully the cannerymen
 were complying with the statute. Ac- cordingly, he chartered fast gaso- line launch and dropped in on the traps durnig the prohibited opening hours.
 His visit was surprise both to him. self and to the cannerymen. Mir. Cobb visitd forty traps and found that thirty of them were fishing in full blast, when they should have been entirely closed; nine were making feeble attempt to comply with the law and one was found fulfilling all the re- quirements of the act. A peculiar feature about this latter trap was that the owner had all his other traps in full operation. The inspector made cor ious notes and took many photO- graphs of the conditions in which he found the traps and reported the mat ter to the department. The following Sunday he again unexpectedly ap- peared at the traps he had visited 3 week before. This time most of the traps had been closed. Some, however. were still violating the laws. In the meantime Mr. Cobb has recieved in- suructions from the department to place the cases in the hands of the United State district attorney and the latter called the attention of the grand jury to the violations. The grand lury, which was in session in Skag way, after an exhaustive examination brought indictments against all those caught fishing at the time the first vis- it was made to the traps by Inspector Cobb-the indictments caught nearly very canneryman doing business in these waters. The cases did not go to trial, because pleas of guilty were made in all instances and in consider ation the court imposed nominal fines of $50 for each offense.

Secretary Ballinger has given in- structons for a speedy investigation of all pending applications to enter coal lands in Alaska territory and for the prompt issuance of patents in all cases where no fraud is found, says the Post Intelligencer. If the orders are followed out literally, a situation which has checked important develop ment work for long time will be re- lieved.
 The coal land entries in Alaska have been held up for years. As result of this hold-up railroad construction to one of the most important coal fields was stopped and the road itself went into the hands of receiver. It was impossible to secure the much needed capital until it could appear that the coal mines were to b9 opened and to become shippers within some reasona- ble period.
 The coal of Alaska is much needed. It is the best coal produced on the coast, and some veins are as good as any in the United States. Not only is this coal needed in Alaska, but every where else on this coast. Indeed, the government of the United States would save many thousands of dollars annually if the best of this Alaska coal were on the market; for, if ii were, 1t would no longer be necessary to ship coal out from the Atlantic for naval uses in these waters. Rather, there would be no excuse for so doing, for there is in Alaska, coal fully equal to the best Pocahontas, and if this were on the market the claim that Pacific coast coals are inferior could no longer be available to explain the hiring of foreign ships to bring coa around from tho Atlantic.
 Speedy action by the agents of the interior department will permit devel opment of Alaska mines It is one thing to order speedy action and another thing to get it; but Secretary Bal finger will probably stir things ul until he does get what he has ordered
