While the Potomac Is In splendid con-
T. ton so far as clarity OF the water is
0Jncerned, there seems to be little ac-
'.T1ty among the fishermen except along
he line of the faithful catfish. There
re few If any perch about Washington
r"iag caught, but not enough To make
II worth day on the water.
The bass fishermen seem to have
the Capital and have hled them
selves away to more promising waters
on their summer vacations.
There are many points within easy
striking distance of Washington where
the bass may be found. Harpers Ferry,
Weaverton, Point of Rocks, all along
the Baltimore and Ohio on the Potomac
within a short distance of the city,
promise good sport and are well worth
The time expended upon the trip. II
's unnecessary to take bait to Weaver
Ton or Harpers Ferry. but IL Point of
Locks be chosen as the objective, IL
nHing the closest to Washington, IL is
'vel to take bait along. The artificial
ait gives promise Of usefulness in the
] 7esent condition Of the water.
The following places bear the reputa-
on of being good fishing grounds: o.

situation and expressed the hope that
the Interstate Commerce Commission :
decision on the application Of the east
ern railroads for freight rate advances
would soon be decided
1T is respectfully submitted for your

ments are correct" said he.
II. The adoption of the present fiscal
policy of the nation has not been fol-
lowed by the rush of foreign impor-
tations which was threatened.
80. on the authority OF experienced
and unpreiudiced observers of different
nations there has been progressing for
some months, and is now i'm progress,
"a moderate and quite general decline in
prices TO a lower level. part of a
movement OF similar character going
on throughout the world
-. \ general depression i'm business
has long existed In many countries
tll hEllOuN the tblllilltl' ldl Nbllhs
The public has through press and
platform these many years demanded a
reduction in the cost of living. That
reduction is now going on. Is II pos
sible 1t should come without readjust-
ments which, however healthful are
temporarily difficult? Are business
booms born out of falling markets?
If America is in despair / do not
know it, There are difficulties here.
No man is born into the world without
rain; and the evolution from higher to
lower prices from highly centralized
industry into a more normal and Dem
ocratic type. will not be accomplished
without difficulty; but To treat the
process as if it were either dangerous
or disastrous is like mourning because
"a man child is born into the world"
