Tomorrow ends the spring season for
catching bass in the waters Of the Dis
trict of Columbia. the law applying to
both small and big mouth varieties. There
seems to be some doubt as to Just when
the season ends in Maryland, some con-
tending that it does not close until April
Is, while others contend that it closes
tomorrow
The local angler who goes beyond the
District limits after tomorrow and brings
bass into the District. the law provides,
is liable to fine or imprisonment as it is
an offense to have such fish in possession
during the closed season. So far as
local anglers know. not a single small
mouth bass has been caught with rod and
line this spring.
plymouth bass in the tidal basin have
provided excellent sport during the past
two weeks. They first refused to take
anything but a spoon. but now they are
unable to let big attractive smelt pass
without giving it taste and the result IS
that anglers are getting strings OF big
fish.
One of the most attractive strings of
plymouth bass seen at the tidal pasin
this spring, represented an afternoon S
sport which was participated in by Theo-
dore Essler Bernard Talbot and EDWARD
Maddox.
Eighteen bass weighing twenty-seven
and one-half pounds" was announced
when the count was concluded.
The largest fish weighed a trife more
than three pounds.
1T was the greatest sport I've had this
season." Talbot remarked at the basin
several days after the catch was mace,
pointing to string Of five bass he ana
Maddox had caught that day.
\ land the FIVE look like so many shad,"
observed bystander.
small-motth bass" one of the trio OF
anglers said. but these fish furnish all
the sport 1 want, and they ought to be
good enough for anybody"
Both strings of bass were caught
with live bait.
I'm sick" moaned John w. Hurley,
when a big Mississippi catfish. reputed
to have been as big as sturgeon, got
away from him last Sunday.
Get him some medicine" shouted
Sam Rothschild. one of the occupants
of the boat.
"'Col. Hurley" he added, "I'1l for
give you for the reports of the big fish
getting away. / admit I'm no fisher
man. but I have always been skeptical
about the big fish getting away. I'm
perfectly willing to apologize for
everything I've said about the big
ones"
Frank P. Hall and Robert Miller were
in the boat when Hurley's exciting
episode happened, and both vouch for
the statement that the fish that got
away was the biggest one they had
ever seen in this vicinity.

Both anglers are bass fishermen. Here

Contrasts Taft With Lincoln.

IF Lincoln was right in this speech
that 1 have quoted, then the President
and all who follow and support him are
wrong in UNFOLDING the doctrine that it
is unsafe to trust the people and that a
part of the people should rule the rest.
1.-THE privilege which once took form as
the divine right Of kings which In
Lincoln's day took form as the divine
right of the slave owner. now takes form
as the divine right Of the great special
interests.
"Our opponents are those who disbe-
lieve in the right Of the people to rule
and who regard wrong done to the help
less as Of infinitesimal Importance when
weighed in the balance against the fetish
Of adherence to formulas OF a dead
legalism.
"But whatever form the contest may
take at the moment the issue is funda-
mentally the same. AS Lincoln said, 1t is
the same principle in whatever shape 1t
develops. 1t is fundamentally a fight be-
tween those who strive to get justice
through doing justice and strive to secure
the rights of every man and every wom-
an. through the genuine rule of the peo-
pie and those who in Lincoln's words
seek to bestride the people in their own
interests and to live and gain profit, In

THOUSAND POST OFFICES

ed to Those of the Fourth
Class.

One thousand post Offices of the fourth

Hitchcock. to begin the transaction of

Dental Offices
II is Mr.. Hitchcock's purpose to extend
the system to the fourth class or smaller
offices. which are located In the rural dis
tricts. at the rate Of 1000 a month until
practically all post offices doing a money
order business have been designated.
When this has been accomplished the
system will be by far the most extern
sive savings institution In the world.
There are more than 81 900 fourth-class
post offices, of which about 10000 are
money order offices. When these have
all been designated the system will have
nearly 5000 o ces doing a savings bust
ness.
Millions on Deposit.
In the extensions to fourth class Of
fees no office will be included where the
postmaster has a poor rating for eff
cheney. 1t Is expected by Mr.. Hitchcock
that even In many of the smallest COM
munit:es the postal savings business will
he considerable. owing to the lack of any
banking facilities for local business men
and prosperous farmers. The deposits at
the Offices now in operation are estimated
to be more than $4,000 600 standing to
the credit of about $50, 900 depositors.
