that does not make Weaver a poor

no disgrace. Weaver is a hard play

heavy batter, but he usually hits when
the hit is needed.

JUNEAU's CAMPAIGN FOR FISH BUSINESS
(Pacific Fisherman)

(Pacfc Fisherman)
 The city of Juneau, Alaska, after giving little at tention fishing business for years, has suddenly awakened the fact that the fishing fleet of Southeastern Alaska has become accustomed to making it's headquarters other ports; and also that Juneau has itself some advantages as a base of fish ing operations which, if they fully developed may bring good part of the fleet back to that locality
 These ideas were uppermost at meeting of the Juneau Merchants Protective Association May S. when a committee appointed investigate. This com mittee reported a meeting May 15. when ment started for the dredging of the Gastineau channel bar outside Juneau to provide passage for the fishing boats; and the need of good passen ger and freight service between Juneau and other Southeastern Alaska ports emphasized
 The matter later taken up with the City Council which has taken under consideration the question of buying leasing the Shattuck dock which will accommodate 37 halbut boats. The dredging proposition has been placed before the Territorial thorities, and it is believed that the work will be dertaken in the future. The effort secure better transportation service between Juneau and by ports has also received encouragement all the service, though it is impossible yet to say what will come of the effort
 One of the needs brought out by the preliminary inquiry of adequate bait supply for the hal but boats, with prices that would compete with other fish ports Those who have studied the believe it will be possible to plenty of bait at a enable cost.
 Ample boat repairing facilities assured, two companies putting in equipment capable of taking of any vessel of the fishing fleet
 This agitation has resulted in larger number of fishing boats putting in at Juneau the end of May there thirty halibut boats making that port their headquarters.

The Pacific Fisherman shows the northern hali- but catch for May amounted to more than 8000GG0 pounds Salmon. mildcured and otherwise (canned salmon included and other species of shpred from Alaska would add probably $100,000 to the value of the product from this Territory About 45 per cent. of the halibut delivered at Prince Rupert and about per Vancouver. The arrange ment with Canada, which assured will soon go into effect, making it that fish delivered Alaskan ports may be sent from the Alaskan ports through Canada to other American points in bond, will have tendency to fish be de- .hvered at American ports less at the Canadian Figures the haibut delivered Juneau and shipped from here not set forth in the Fishermen though pounds that delivered at Seattle in regular But these figures also include the habut shipped from Petersburg and Wrangel. Ketchikan received 44OOOO pounds of the fish, and there shipped recty to Seattle in the independent the vessels of the fishing companies about 200000 pounds
 These figures tell the story of what Juneau is losing by not being in the fisheries game This city is nearer the good fishing banks than any other, it is the best supply point north of Vancouver
 very casual examination of the figures make it plain that the time for Juneau to act is now Every month that the matter is delayed costs this place lot more than differences that might exist over the cost of suitable location for the industry The Empire does not by this that it would want the City Council to be held up. simply means that if the purchase and equipment a location for the fisheries fleet to dispose of cargoes worth the effort to the people of the city too important to be delayed on account of a few hundred dollars And the figures given would indicate the fish busi- ness would be worth the very best blows the city can deliver. Let the matter be pressed Let us get into the fish game at the earliest possible date

Seattle Post-Intelligencer)

 The doubting East is finding some confirmation of the stories of Aaskas agricultural possibilities in the offer of Alaska farmers to supply farm products army posts and government construction camps in the Territory

 The offer of the Alaska farmers to supply food for the government forces places the Territory on the agricultural map, and should stimulate the interest of many Eastern farmers who have desire to grow m with new country.
