DELEGATE wlcKERsHAm IS AGAIN ON THE WAR PATH;
 HAS FEARS OF MONOPOLY

TACOMA Washington, January 4. Delegate Wickersham Is of the opinion that movement is on foot to grab the salmon fisheries of Alas ka and that .he effect of a bill now pending before Congress would be to facilitate efforts of Chicago meat packers and allied interests to get possession of one of the richest re- sources of the territory.
 The fisheries of Alaska are worth conservatively speaking, $40O,OOOOOO, and Wiclersham believes that if the meat packing interests and affiliated capitalists get through congress the bill that is started in the grind they will get the Alaska fisheries.
 Representative Charles c. Carlin, of Virginia, introduced the bll on the opening day of congress. It was re- tered to the ways and means commit tee. Wickersham's first move will be to try to have the blll referred to the committee on territories.
 The bill provides that "in leu of all other federal or territorial license fees and taxes" every person or com pany engaged in fishing shall pay Q certain stipulated nominal license fee, including $1OO per annum for each fish trap site. from three to SIX cents case of canned salmon. according to the grade, and other small charges.
 Wickersham holds that this lang uage not only would make 1t impos- sible for the territory to tax the fish ing industry on large holdings, in- cluding about $12,OOO.OOO worth of shore property, canneries. etc.. but that 1t probably would relieve the fish ing interests of payment of the feder- al corporation income taxes. The bill thus describes a fsh-trap site:
 Each flsh-trap site shall consist of a reserved area in the water. rectang- uIar in form. The size (to be deter mined by the locator) shall not be

PUEBLO NEWS NOTES

About 60 cords of wood have been hauled this week for heating purpos- es at the Pueblo. Donny 0'Connor is doing the hauling.
 The heavy fall of snow has made the travelling between the Pueblo mine and Whitehorse a very slow. tedious process. One tip-over has all ready been reported.
 Several days were spent in cleaning off the winters snow from the Pueblo residences. During the mild spell the melting of this snow caused some slight damage and considerable an- noyance inside.
 Friday the boiler of the heating plant sprung a leak. Mir. vey came out and planned for the repairs and temporary heating. By keeping a dou. ble shift at the fires the leaking was controlled. Alex Barr and Bill Ford have been firing this week. Wednes- day temporary stoves were put in and the boiler which is imbedded in brick was uncovered. The fires are to go out Thursday and the men hope to have steam on Friday night.-(White- horse Star. Jan. 14.)
The Alaska daily empire., 1916-01-19

moro than 1000 feet ono way or more than 5000 feet the other way. A trap may be built anywhere within the linn It's of such area. The general course of the trap shall be lengthwise of the trap site. Not more than one trap or other fishing appliance may be con- structed or operated at the same time within the limits of any such reser- we'd area. There shall be clear side spaces or passage ways of not less than 2,5OO feet literally between the trap sites and clear end spaces or pas sage-ways of not less than 800 feet endwise between all f.sh-trap sites, and between all constructed traps.
 Wickersham has calculated that un- der this language every fish-trap site can be made to cover 279 acres. In other words. for license fee of o paltry S1OO the exclusive fishing right to 279 acres Is conveyed.
 Another section of the bill reads
 From and 6f.er the location of any trap site and after the approval there of by the secretary of commerce the claimant theros and his heirs, execu. tors. administrators. successors and assigns shall have the exclusive right thereof to occupy, maintain and fish the same; to renew the license there of year by year until abandoned, for feited or terminated through opera ton of law; to mortgage. sell and transfer such rights during the time as he or they shall comply with the laws of the United States pertaining thereto.
 It Is asserted that this would en able the meat trust to send locatorf to take possession of the trap sites or, if 1t did not care to do that, ii could buy of other locators and se cure Q monopoly.
 There are indications that the bjll will create as big a furore as other measures in preceding congresses which. 1t was alleged, were designated to procure monopolistic control of Al askan coal deposits.-(Tacoma News

PRACTICAL HINTS
 ON CONCRETE
CONSTRUCTION


 During the course of an Illustrated lecture relating to concrete ccn7truc- ticn on tho f. .-ro, the speaker, who had travolcG thr, -grcut sl the important agricultural districts east of the Miss lssippi taking notes and photographs of yari- US examples of concrete con- straction on hundreds of iarms, WIS asked what proportion of -asm work of this character resulted in failure. ao replied lat failures were exceed ngly few, and thst if farmers were instructed as Go the use of a"opcr az wegates. failures would become prac- ic.lly unknown.
 The following instructions concern ing good concrete have been prepared Tor the use of farmers, who will find hem convenient as reference data. If itrlctly observed they will insure sat isfactory results.
 Aggregates to Be Used in Concrete
 Construction
 The sand. stone and gravel usually 'ound upon the farm lands of the United States are generally suitable Or concrete construction provided he following precautions are taken: 1.-These aggregates must be free rom vegetable matter dirt, or other foreign substances.
 2.-When using bank-run gravel, he sand must be separated from the tones or pebbles by screening thro K-inch screen.
 3.-In small concrete structures, such as drain tile fence posts, etc, The coarse aggregate (crushed rock pr graveD should range in size from F to A inch. For larger work, such IS silos, barn doors, ordinary founda- tions, etc, coarse aggregate should range form 1 F inches to inch.
 1.-The sand used should be hard, coarse. and clean. and graded from T inches to fine, with the large size pre- dominating. Use great care in hand mixing. It Is economical to buy a lmall machine if the farmer intends to use concrete in large quantities.
 Hand Mixing.
 1.-Slze of measuring box for sand should be feet square by l foot high thus containing cubic feet
 2.-Load sand on wheelbarrows and wheel onto mixing board.
 S.-Fill sand-measuring box, lift box and spread sand four inches thick over board.
 4.-Take two bags of cement, place contents as evenly as possible over land.
 5.-Turn the sand and cement over until thoroughly mixed, so that no streaks of sand or cement appear. 6.-Spread the mixture of sand and cement out carefully. place meaouring box beside 1t. and fill twice with stone or gravel, then empty onto sand or cement mixture and mix thoroughly. Add three-quarters of required amount of water slowly and evenly, at same time mixing the mass.
 S.-Continue mixing. adding bal ance of water when dry spots appear until whole mass has been turned over three or four time. This should be sufficient After final turning shovel into compact mass ready for wheel ing to place.
 pank-run Gravel.
 Bank.run gravel is sometimes used as 1t comes from the bank. This is wrong. as no two places in a bank will have tho same proportions of sand and pebbles. It is, therefore, al- ways essential when using bank-run material to screen the gravel from the sand and remix .n proper propor- tions.:
