 Fishing operations at Convenient cove have stopped completely and the barge America with about a thous. and tons of herring on board is ready to be lowed South. The season has been only fair, about two thousand tons of fish in all has been cured. one-half of which had been hauled south. The run of fish has had less to do with the amount of fish put up than the unsat- isfactory condition of the market. The fish is cured exclusively for the Chi nese trade, and the unsettled political conditions prevailing in that country are such that business Is at stand still.-Ketchikan Miner.

Maryland Agricultural College Loses
Through Stubborn Private Interests

The Baltimore News, in its issue of
April 7th described the fate of bill
in the passage of which every farmer
of the State was interested, as follows:
Earlier in the night the House had
taken up the Maryland Agricultural
College bill which it had amended"
(by eliminating the private stockhol-
der interests) "and which the Senate
had changed back to it's original form
on the protest of some of the directors
named in the original measure, but
who had been eliminated. The House
on motion of Speaker Trippe refused
to concur in the amendments and a
conference committee failing to induce
the Senate to recede, the bill was kill
ed by the House.
with it went loan of $780, 900 for
new buildings which was contingent
on the new charter bill getting
through. The scheme fell through the
stubbornness of some of the directors,
who preferred that the college should
go without money than to see them
selves eliminated as life directors rep
resenting an interest that they had
agreed to surrender"
The above statement is absolutely
true to fact. What makes the action
of these trustees even more indefen-
sible is thier refusal to give any heed
to the recommendation OF every COM
mission OF committee which has re-
Gently studied the affairs Of the Mary
land Agricultural College. They, one
and all, urge what has Leen advocated
Ey the farmers of Maryland for years,
namely the making of the Agricultural
College a State institution by the
prompt removal from it's management
of every private interest.
Despite all representations and
pleadngs of the City Wide Congress
and Associated State Vide bodies,
these private interests insisted upon
making an effort to pass the above de-
scrlbed Senate amendments.
Instead of trying to utilize the
strong sentiment for the College so as
to further the farmers interests and
promote the agricultural development
Of the State through reorganized
| college for the farmers sons and
! daughters, these agricultural "lead-
ers' preferred certain defeat rather
tnan give up control which has
| placed the College in its present un-
enviable position.
There is but one thing for the farm
ers to do organize and come to the
next legislature with clean cut, de-
finite program Of their own making
insisting upon its passage and pre-
pared to stay on the job until they get
what they have a right to ask, and
must ask if Maryland is to make any
real progress in agriculture.

Rates On Stone For Reads

1t may be of interest to cur readers
to know that at meeting of the In
terstate Commerce Commission held
in Washington, ID. c., on March 20, an
order was issued suspending until Oc-
tober IA, 1914, the operation of the
schedule of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company for an increase in the
freight rate of Is cents per ton on
stone for road building purposes on
the Eastern Shore. This increase of
freight rates would have meant an ad-
ditional cost of about 5000 per mile
on each mile of State road to be built
on the Eastern Shore. The State
Roads Commission last December pro-
tested against this increase by coun-
sci before the Interstate Commerce
Commission, and it was first deferred
until May IA, and now until October
IA, next. The favorable action al
ready secured will mean a large saw
ing to the State on our road building
operations on the Eastern Shore dur
ing the coming season. The State
Roads Commission viii continue to
use its best efforts to rave this In
creased schedule of rates entirely de-
MED, or indefinitely deferred, by the
Interstate Commerce Commission.

Races Again On

The Spring meeting Of the Havre
de Grace racetrack will open on Sat-
urday next, April 18, and continue un-
til May s. The work on the new
grandstand is being pushed and it is
expected to be in shape for the open
ing day. A good many horses are
said to have already arrived for the
races. The guys" who like to lose
their money to the "bookies" will
doubtless also arrive with the open
ing day. Mr.. Thomas Clyde, one of
the big racing men of America, said
recently before the Committee OF the
Maryland Senate: 81 never bet on the
races, myself; l leave that to the
weaklings and fools" And the weak
lings and fools take the bait, of Mr..
Clyde, ct al, and support the game by
their losings. And there be those
amongst us who call that sport"
