PouNn NET FISHERMEN.

News comes from Belford;To on the
south shore of Raritan bay, that the
government is not losing any time
in seeing to it that the Law regarding
pound nets is strictly enforced.
There seems to be q determined eff
fort on the part of some to u as
much Inconvenience as they al for
fishermen residing in that section.
While we agree that every effort
should be made to preserve the fish
ing in these waters, We do not be-
lieve that a most important industry
should be ruined for the benefit of n
comparatively few sportsmen who
reside in the cities.
The agitation against pound nets
has, been on for a considerable
time backed largely by Newark
clubmen. They seem TO think the
bay Is for their especial amusement
and hat because a number of men
make their living by catching fish in
large quantities and supplying the
markets so that we all can enjoy fish
on our tables once in a while, the
pound nets should be abolished. The
towns of Bedford, Port Monmouth,
Keansburg and vicinity, are made up
almost entirely of families who de-
pend on fishing for a livelihood. To
! do away with pound nets would
bring ruin in many households.
AS an effort has been made in past
sessions of the legislature to enact
laws prohibiting, or restricting to a
great extent, the use of pound nets,
it is to be supposed that the same
effort will be made the coming SEES
sion. The legislature should see to
it that the people of this section are
well protected. 1t is all well enough
to have sport on the water, but
mans bread and butter is of far
more Importance. Besides, to catch
A. Grl Or1r Nv LAnlZ nnI 1inA would
mean that many of us, who have not
the time to go out on the bay to
catch the fish, would go without
this sort Of sea food. The New York
markets would find it hard to fill the
demands, and the price of fish would
soar along with all other articles of
food. The only persons to be bene-
flied by the abolition of pound nets,
besides the sportsmen, would be the
Mehaden fishing trust, who swoop
along the coast with their steamers,
taking fish of all kinds from the wa
tiers in enormous quantities.
We believe the fishermen of Bel
ford and vicinity are perfectly will
ing to do the right thing. In fact,
the preservation of fish is necessary
to their occupation. Let the legis-
~lature give these men the first con-
sideration In passing laws affecting
fishing, and then IL anything a be
done for the sportsmen, all well and
| good.

WILL SPEND S25,OOO,OO0
IN CIVIC IMPROVEMENTS

Spokane. Wash, Feb 2S.-Improve-
ments involving the expenditure of
more than $25.0O0,0a0 are contemplate
ed as part of the program Of the civic
plan committee, to be appointed by
Charles M. Fassett, president of the
chamber of commerce, to make spo-
kane not only the largest inland city
on the continent, but also the best
place in which to work and live Mr.
Fassett said in outlining the prelim-
inaries for the work, to be started
this year:
eve want Spokane to be beautiful
sane. healthy and happy. We want
parks, boulevards, paved streets and
a scheme of public buildings that will
be a credit to our people. We want
perfect water, sewage and garbage
systems We want anything that will
make Spokane better place in which
Ito live, and with these we may trust
implicitly that it viii be populated
by the right kind of men and women
and become as great and strong as
The aggregate of it's citizenship. We
want to combine the beautiful and the
practical.
"In connection with these plans we
shall also begin movement to bet
ter the condition of the ranchers and
other wealth-producers We believe
that If the country tributary to this
city with the right kind of farmers,
whose lives may be made as comfort
able as possible, Spokane will take
care of itself
"The committee to be appointed in
few days will be divided into sub
committees on legislation, physical
development, municipal administra-
tion, commerce and economics, pub
lie buildings and civic art and exploit
alton, bat will not be limited to any
one improvement or class of improve
ments. We are more anxious to
know wherein Spokane is weak than
wherein it is strong, so that we may
build accordingly"

HORRORS OF FOREST FIRES.

Latest reports OF the forest fires in
the Rainy river region of Minnesota
which reached Warroad last night in
creased the horrors OF the situation, if
not the number OF lives lost Estimates
OF the number of persons killed ranged
from 100 to 400. Several conservative
men place the deaths at more than 100.
But the greater concern for the present
is the rescue OF the helpless and the re-
lief OF thousands of homeless men,
women and children.
Stories of wild animals fleeing for
safety side by side with human beings,
their natural hostility and fear quench-
ed by the horror OF their situation,
came in yesterday, showing the des-
perateness OF the situation. Tales also
came OF mothers burned to death with
their babies on tho breast, and strong
men calcined while endeavoring to
shield their children.
The terrible results OF the forest fires
are beginning to be realized by the dis
heartened and homeless thousands.
Bodies found along the railway tracks
three miles west of Baudette were
brought to Rainy River, Ont, yester-
day. There was not q particle OF
clothing left on any Of them save parts
OF shoes. The bodies had the ap-
pearance OF having been baked in a
red-hot oven,
1t is said that when the fire struck
one place Is people got into a dry we'll
IS feet deep and remained there, nearly
.uffocating from the heat and smoke,
until the fire had passed.
Many settlers got into the Rapid river
and saved themselves by wading in the
water, although their faces were blister
cd by the heat.
The fire zonc covers an area of IS
mile. in length from the gravel pits
west Of Warroad to Stratton, the fourth
station east Of Rainy River, and in
width about so miles, covering all the
territory between Red Lake and the
Lake OF the Woods. The fires have
wiped out the villages OF Baudette,
spooner, Graceton, Pitt, Myron and
Malcom.

TO GO TO ENGLAND.

King Manuel, of Portugal, and the
Queen Mother Amelia decided yester-
day to proceed from Gibraltar to Eng
land. They will leave probably within
a few days, but are undetermined
whether they will travel by land OF
sea. .-'
The Italian warship Regina Elena al
rived at Gibraltar yesterday to take on
board the Dowager Qneen Maria Pia,
who will 60 to Italy.
Before leaving Portugal King Manuel
sent the following telegraph-lstter to
the Portuguese premier:
Il am compelled owing to stress ol
circumstances to embark, but wish to
inform the people Of Portugal that my
conscience is clear. / have always acted
as faithful Portuguese and I have al,
ways done my duty. I will ever remain
at heart true Portuguese, and hope
that my country will do me iustic.
and try to understand my feelings. My
departure must in noway be taken as
an act OF abdication.
The Spanish government has re
ceiyed confirmation OF the report tha
King Manuel will shortly proceed te
England, where he will take up his per
manent residence.
