Potomac Fishing Season.

Commercial fishing prospects on the
Potomac and its tributaries are not
bright. Though reports indicated the
spring herring catch as not altogether
in view Of the steadily de-
clining harvests Of recent years, the shad
catch was distinctly poor. and following
an extremely meager catch last year
spells hardship for the fishermen in the
territory below and adjacent to Washing
ton In the news it has been said that
while the take of yellow perch spawn
at the Bryan point propagation station of
the bureau of fisheries was up to the av-
craze that Of shad has fallen away be-
low the average. and even though the take
Of spawn is large during the remaining
days Of the season the total for the
spring work will be exceptionally small"
Tho indications arc that the take OF
shad spawn will this year be less than
half that taken last year. and the take
then was relatively small. The yellow
perch and shad Matched at Bryan point
are shipped to many rivers and streams
throughout the country, where restocking
is In progress and where 1t Is believed
that the fish will prosper. In all the
rivers Of the Atlantic seaboard where
formerly great catches Of shad have been
made the reports are that this season 8
catch has been a FAILURE. 1t Is significant
Of the depletion Of tho American fish sup
ply and indicates the urgency Of re-
medal measures.

Becker Verdict.

The verdict guilty of murder in the
first degree" in the case of Charles
Becker at New York. charged with
prompting and paying for the staying Of
Herman Rosenthal, was not q surprise
to the public except in the matter of
celebrity with which the trial proceeded
and the promptness with which the
jury returned it's verdict The press
accounts have 1t that the verdict was
a surprise to the defense-verdicts of
guilty usually are-counsel and
friends of the twice-convicted man say
ing that in the second trial they looked
for d disagreement by the jury. They
were encouraged in this belief by the
fact that only in one other murder
case in the history of New York state
has a conviction been obtained on q
second trial where the verdict of the
first trial had been reversed by the
court of appeals. The inevitable con-
sequence of this verdict against Becker
may be deferred many months, pending
the result of final action by the court
OF appeals. If that be adverse only
pardon or communication Of sentence by
tho governor or a new trial on newly
discovered evidence can save this mans
life. Rosenthal was shot down July Is.
1912. and four men have already been
judicially put to death, and now this
bloody and sordid tragedy involving
the Now York police department and
the underworld-the System-seems to
be drawing to q close.

Roosevelt and the South.

This is taken from a story dealing with
Mr.. Roosevelt's plans:
1T may be that the coloners speaking
trip will take him into the south. One Of
his dreams has been to build up there q
really effective opposition to the demo-
cratic party
Yes he entertained 1t very strongly two
years ago. He had been led to believe
that the young men of the south. who
had expressed admiration for him as man.
soldier. sportsman and writer. would come
to his support as political leader and
swing their section for him for President
On the score Of personality he had the
call in their hearts over Mr.. Wilson
"'Twas but a dream. sweet, wild dream;
A vision false as vain"
The young men Of the south went with
the old men to the polls and pumped for
the democratic nominee Mr.. Wilson
swept the deck. He lacked the fire. the
snap. the inspiring cock-a-whoop Of his
opponent, but he wore the party badge
long irresistible in the south and spoke
the language Of tho tribe.
1t is be conceded that two years
