"DISiNrERESTED
 MANAGEMENT"

President Wilson's desire to achieve currency and bank ing law free from "disinteres- ted management" so far, that is. as the banking business effects the field of general fi- nancial welfare, sounds the keynote of the whole purpose of this eras demand for justice and righteousness. Special privlige is best served by special management. Fhis has been demonstrated in the tariff and other issues. The reed is for"disinterested man. agement," that is for manage ment that has no special inter- est in the subject under dis cussion.
 In state, nation and city, the people are discarding old doctrines, fostered by special interestes. that the tariff must be revised by it's friends, that railroads must be controlled for public service by railroad men, that only lawyers can devise rules for lawyers, and for courts, that only stock and bond holders must run street railways, that financial mag mates are alone competent to determine financial policies and to direct financial policies.
 In the revolution in progress the people, as usual. are mis- understood. They are charged with attempting to upset exist ing conditions and to substitute chats for orderly rule. As 'mateer of fact, they are attem- pting nothing of the kind. The people are attempting no on- slaught upon railroads, or banks or manufacturing con cerns. All they ask is that when laws affecting these in- terests are enacted they be framed by "disinterested man. agement," by men who have no special interests to serve.
 The people will be content if they can secure "disinterested management" in the solution of the great financial, eco- homie and industrial problems lof the day.

cANNERYMEN FIRM
 ON PRICES

The Sound cannerymen are paying 15 cents for Sockeyes. Earlier in the season the purse seiners demanded 25 cents. They then tried to compromise on t7 1-2 cents in case the fish were plentiful and 22 1-2 cents if they were scarce. Int cannerymen cOntended these prices were too high consider ing the condition of the mar ket. Some of the canners paid from i8 10 20 cents for their first Sockeyes but the ruling price is now 15. This price, however, will be maintained throughout the season and will not be dropped to as low as , cents as has at times been the case in the past when the fish were plentiful. Fifteen cents will insure the fishermen a profitable season.

DECISION AFFECTING
 THE FISHERMEN

Fishermen who go to sea on schooners to ply their trade of fishing and not as members of tho crew, cannot recover sal. wage although they may save the vessel from destruction. This was the decision of Judge E. E. Cushman in the federal district court at Seattle last month ill the libel brought by Martin Nelson and six other fishermen against the San Juan Fishing & Packing Co.'s schoon CT Comet. This was the first decision in this district on this point and aroused consider able interest among fishermen. While the Comet was 40 miles from Cape Flattery, July 2, 1912, her engines broke down. The seven fishermen as vol : unteers, in the ships dory, talk ing the only compass, rowed 4D miles to Tatoosh island and summoned the government yes sel Snohomish at Neah Bay. They claimed salvage for sav- ing the Comet. They did not belong to the crew but sold the fish they cought to the owner of the vessel. Judge Cushman in his decision said:
 'lt makes no difference whether they were members of the crew or not, they with the owner and crew were in a common enterprise, the suc- cess of which depended on the safety of the schooner. When they helped the ship they help cd themselves.
 "lt is no necessary to con- sider the effect of using the ships dory and only compass, although that fact alone would defeat their right to salvage un- der the ruling of the supreme court: "A passenger is not, as officers and crew are, bound to stand by the ship to the last; he may leave her at any time land seek his own safety; and for extraordinary services and assistance of extraordinary means not furnished by the equipment of the ship herself by which she is saved from inn minent danger, he may have salvage "-Pacific Fisherman.
