SAMPLES FISHING TRADE
 TAKEN BY PRINCE RUPERT

Prince Rupert the Pacific coast terminal of the newly completed Crank Trunk Pa ciic railway, is to become the principal fishing center of the Canadian Northwest, and in time. it is said, will surpass Van couver and Seattle as a shipping point for North Pacific fishermen.
 The Dominion government has recently passed an order in council which grants the petition of Prince Rupert for increased fishing privlIeges. and will have an lmpOr- tant bearing upon the industry in the whole cf the North Pacific, more especially in Brit ish Columbia and Alaska.
 The new order, according to official ad- vices. vii permit all foreign bottoms to sell their fish in Prince Rupert to Canadian deal 51s. who will assume the bonding regula- ions. The boats will also be permitted to purchase supplies and sign crews ln Prince Rupert.
 The order, it is pointed out, will encour- age the development of the industry ln Brit. j.h Columbia. somewhat at the expense Of both Vancouver and Seattle which are far tker away from the fishing grounds Prince Rupert which is near the grounds, will be able to send its fish direct to Eastern mar lzets over the Grand Trunk Pacific road.
 Last year 7O,C0OoOO pounds of halibut were caught in the Pacific, most of it, say the reports cn the northern banks. Of this about 10000,0OO pounds were shipped through Vancouver, 1oooo:o00 through Prince Rupert, and 5OoOo,ooo pounds through Seattle Under the new order Tn council it is believed that practically all Of this cxtch will be shipped through Prince Runert which will thus become at once 8 creat fishing center, where the fleet will have its headquarters and purchase its sup ples.-Washington Special in Christian SCI pncp Monitor

 ANNEXATION

Champoeg, Ore, May 3-The seventy-second anniversary of the annexation of Oregon was celebrated here Saturday by pioneers from all parts of the state.
 The memories of some of the gray haired old men and women carried them back to days when the Oregon territory was considered So wild and remote from Washing ton, the seat of American govern ment, that many statesmen believ- ed that to annex it would be to ac- quire a staggering burden.
 It was at Champoeg where a small group of settlers gatherei seventy two gears ago, and with a majority of enc voted that the Oregon territory should become a part of the United States, and not of Canada
 Up to the time for the last settler of the group to vote, q tie existed, the adherents of the U. s. and Canada being equally di- yided. The remaining voter was Xavier MatthlGu, Frenchman.
 There was breathless suspense as Mattheiu stood frresolute from the two groups. Then he finally walk ed across an open space and took his place with those who had voted in favor of annexation to the Unit ed States.
