PARCEL POST LAW
DECLARED ASSURED
congressman Fish Finds Sentiment
Favorable to II Steadily Grow
ing Stronger.

Congressman Hamilton Fish, OF
New York, an ardent advocate of the
parcels post, is highly elated over the
fact that both the republican and
democratic candidates to succeed the
late James b, Perkins, of Rochester
have indorsed this postal reform and
pledged themselves to work for It.
'Mr. Havens, the democrat, first
pledged his support for the parcels
post" said Mr.. Fish. "The follow
ing night Mr. Aldridge, the repubIi-
can, publicly announced that he, too,
would work for the enactment of a
parcels post law in the event of his
election to congress. This Is only
one of many signs. The parcels post
law Is coming. While I am expecting
action at this session of congress. If
II does not come now II must come
in the near future"
Fish is earnestly in favor OF the
passage Of the inheritance bill, af-
fectiug the district of Columbia.
which was introduced by Congress
man Miller, Of Minnesota, and favor
ably reported by the district commit
tee to the house. New York state
has an inheritance law" said Fish,
from which It receives on the aver.
age about 100000. The small
man gets much the worst Of II in the
way OF taxation In this city. About
eight years ago a personal tax law
was passed But some shrewd law
yer saw t. Il that the measure pro-
vided only for the taxing Of tangible
personal property. This means. Of
course, that the government employe
who receives only moderate salary
and owns his own little home Is tax
ed ON everything In sight In the
shape OF personal property, while
the wealthy individual who lives in
a palace and can well afford to nay
his share Of taxes gets off very easy
Under the law large holdings Of
stocks and bonds are exempt al.
though they constitute real personal
property"
Coming as Il does from a rich man.
this statement Of Congressman Fish
marks him as an earnest advocate
ot square deal to all the people

NATION M0URNS DEATH
OF MARK TWAIN
The Most Successful Author OF Any
Country or Age, and His Works
Are Everywhere.

Mark Twain Samuel l.. Clemens), 4,
the great American humorist, died on
Thursday of last week at the age
of Is and the entire nation mourns
his loss. His writings have done
much to lift the public out of the
slough of despond and make people
see the bright side of life. His books
are in every library and in almost
every home. Unlike many noted
authors, Mark Twain made news
paper, magazine and book writing a
financial success. According to the
members of the firm of Harper &
Bros, Mark Twain's publishers, the
noted humorist died a very wealthy
man. worth probably $1,000,000, or
more, even after he had sacrificed
one great fortune to pay debts OF
bankrupt publishing firm in which
he was financially interested. "a
rough financial estimate, by no
means accurate, of the number of
Mr.. Clemens books that have been
published in America alone would
be between $5,OOO,OO0 and $500
OOO," said a member of the Harper
firm. 1T is no exaggeration to say
that even at this late day the works
Of Mark Twain are selling more ra-
pidly than those Of any other author
living or dead
while we do not care to say what
we paid Mr.. Clemens for his num-
erous short stories, which We pub
lished in our magazines, or what
royalties we paid him when the
stories were later put into book
form, it has been truly said that
Mark Twain received more per word
for his stories and higher royalties
for them in book form than any liv-
ing author"

WHY TRY TO STOP
COMMERCIAL FISHING
VIII Cut OFF a $4,000 Revenue from
the Fishermen Of This
City.

Grants Pass, Ore, April 25, 1910.
Editor Courier. We see by the last
issue OF the Courier that there Is
bill being drafted to close the Rogue
river fishing except by angling. |
am authorized by the Rogue River
Fishermen's union to ask you to pub
lish the facts Of the fishing Industry
here.
I wish to state that the books OF
the union show that from the 18th
of April, 1909, till the first of Aug
ust, 1909, 1877 pounds OF steelheads
and over 92 tons or $4,000 pounds
Of Chinooks we're caught; and this
season so far about 100 pounds OF
steelheads and $4,000 pounds or over
OF Chinook salmon.
Now It Is fact that over $4,000
are taken in by the fishermen here
in one season. and this money Is
practically all spent in this city This
shows a big financial benefit to the
community.
Now why close the river? We un-
derstand that the steelhead Is a
sportsman's fish and the greatest
objection to the net fishing Is that
We are destroying or rather catching
them. The figures previously men
toned will show that there are prac-
tIcally no steelheads caught except
very large ones and It Is time these
large ones were caught as they are
great devourers OF small fish. The
nets used in the summer fishing are
9-lnch mesh for chinook salmon and
even a little larger is better when
very large fish (chinook) are rum
ming which allows the steelheads to
pass through. We admit that most
OF the steelheads are caught In the
winter, and we are willing that the
winter fishing be closed, as a rule
the river Is so high II Is impossible to
use a net. The winter fishing Is
done with a 6-inch mesh net. There
Is already a law making 1t unlaw-
full TO operate any trap, weir, fish
dam or fish wheel on Rogue river
Now the chinook salmon does not
as a rule take bait; he comes up
the river to spawn and then returns
to the ocean. II they do not die
from some cause, such as battering
themselves against dams that have
fish ladders that need sign boards to
show the direction to find them.
They do not feed to any extent in
fresh water. Now II the fishing
should be closed and large run OF
chinook salmon should come up the
river there would be an immense
quantity Il am afraid to try to give
figures) that would kill themselves
on the dams along the river, the cur
rent would wash them on the bars
and with the heat Of the summer sun
would become menace TO the health
OF the inhabitants along the river.
At present they are caught and turn
ed into revenue to assist the COM
financially Yours respect
fully, H. f. GETTING.

TEMPERANCE REFORM.

Harper's Weekly.-It does not seem
to us that there is any prospect that
the use of alcoholic beverages will
ever cease in the United States. We
do not believe In compulsory total alb.
stinence for all the people. 1t Is not
practical, and we doubt If 1t would be
beneficial. This opinion is not based
on esteem for alcoholic beverages, or
on the idea that they do people good.
1t Is based merely ON observation OF
the habits of mankind and on some
reading. You cannot run a country
on the lines of an inebriate asylum,
nor treat It's population like patients,
who must be kept from drink at any
cost, and whether they like 1t or not
An effort was made to do something
like that in the army when the can
teen was abolished 1t has been 3
great failure and has helped very
much to give our army the greatest
hospital record of any army in the civ
ilized world. The most that can bs
done about drink, as we see the case,
is to minimize its temptations, regu.
late and restrict Its manufacture and
sale, keep 1t out of the youns. dissent.
nate sound instruction as to Its effects,
favor the mild beverages rather than
the stronger ones, and work out a
more intelligent treatment of drunk.
enness and drunkards. The encourag,
ing signs of our time anent drink are
the increase of abstemiousness, and
even abstinence, among the intelli
gent, and the refusal of employers to
tolerate drinking among workers in
employments Of high responsibility
Alcohol seems constantly to be better
understood; and impatience with the
mischief it does is increasingly deer
and persistent, and effort to, abate
those mischiefs Is ceaseless. All thai
Is encouraging, and would be still
more encouraging if the effort were
more intelligent.

COUNTY FUND

TREASURER cURRAN WILL PAY
NO WARRANTS UNTIL MORE
MONEY COMES IN.

Without money in the county fund,
Treasurer Curran finds it difficult to
pay county warrants and has deter
minded that after this date none shall
be paid out of this fund until there is
something wherewith to pay. The
county fund is shown to be consider.
ably overdrawn, owing to the state
levy of four mills being entirely too
small to meet the requirements.

James V. Curran for moneys collected
during the last half of 1909, is now
complete and the document is not a
small one. Forty-fve separate funds
are shown and the money in them
accounted for, showing the balance or
