given out by Mr.. Isaac Wednesday
morning of his fish conservation and
propagation work. Creation of res
ervoirs and more spawn beds in the
streams and more trout holes or hid
ing places in the streams are methods
being employed to protect and build
up Idaho fishing.
"Idahos enormous mileage OF
trout streams, coupled with good
roads and the constant number of
tourists travelling through the state
has threatened to deplete to a GER
tain extent the state fishing" said
Mr.. Isaac. eve are meeting this
condition with artificial conditions
born of close observation. By plac-
ing restrictions on the natural breed
ing places and the closing of the
number of streams and lakes, we
are enabled to preserve the fish.
All state hatcheries are produc-
ing to capacity, turning out larger
number of fish and larger fish. The
department is eliminating the word
fry by turning out larger fish
known as 'fingerlings.' The four
hatcheries at Hay Spur, Ashton,
Occur d'Alene and Standpoint are
producing rapidly. The Hay Spur
hatchery, near Haley, has doubled
it's last years production.
Eat Pend d'Orielle whitefish are
being propagated since the hatchery
has been equipped with Matching
jars.
"The department at present is ne.
gotiating with the Montana fish an6
game department for the importa
ton into Idaho of grayling eggs
which will be put into Idaho water
similar to the grayling streams O.

Otto Jones has appealed to sports
men to help along the work b,

BRITISH INSULT TO U. s. CHARGE

NEW YORK-.The state depart
ment will be urged by Magistrate
John E. Mcclellan of New York,
James J. Dunn of Bristol, Conn, and
other American citizens, to demand
from Great Britain an apology for
alleged insults offered the American
flag by British sailors at Hamilton,
Bermuda, on July 5.
According to reports brought here
by Judge Mcclellan, Dunn and
others, British bluejackets tore down
an American flag and trampled and
spit upon it during an Independence
Day celebration conducted by Ameri-
cans at Hamilton. Three men were
arrested, according to Dunn, but
were let go after being fined SIS
each for disorderly conduct.
Dunn asserted news of the Incl
dent was barred from the cables and
that Frank Marsh of Philadelphia
was threatened by the sailors when
he attempted to prevent their pull
ing down the flag.

When / talked to you last l men
.;oned Senator Hill and his thumb
uil is a funny fellow and busy
body. About eight years ago when
he was made mayor of the town OF
Risby. he mapped out more puoilc
improvements in about fifteen mlh-
utes than some of the other cltizehs
could comprehend in a forthlght.
When the editor of the paper Went
to him and accused Hill OF mapping
ont nlans for enough expenditures
to bankrupt the town and Keep theiil
broke for decade, Hill redeemed
the Democratic party by Just saving
tn the editor Ga Republican your
paper is hard-up isn't it? You neeo
paner is hard-up isn't it You neeo

IFS feet don't you? If you can make
a lot of money publishing ordinances
and notices of improvements you
can stand it can't you? And II all
your neighbors and business asso-
ciates can make money faster oF
reason of the improvements they
can stand it can't they?
The editor answered in the aftlma-
tive every time, and then Hill gave
him a parting injunction as follows,
Well, then if you can't comprehend
the problems of economic progress
involved in these improvements, 40
me the favor to go way back ana

ing. | will attend to the construc-
tive end of this matter and fill your
old paper so full of legal notices
that it will keep you busy making
money"
Now you would not expect that
from a Democrat would you? Especi-
ally after attending Republican
rally Republicans are supposed to
do most of the constructive think
ing, and the Democrats do the OBJ
iecting. If that is true, Hill is a
mis-it in the Democratic party and
ought to be won over to where he
belongs.
AS | said before, Hill is funny
fellow. Under his administration

The injury to Mrs. Scott was the
result of an automobile accident six
weeks ago when, accompanying her
husband on an emergency call, the
Scott machine crashed into another
automobile. Her right leg was
crushed and the flesh was stripped
from it in long gashes. Later gan
creme set in and it was decided that
skin grating operation would be
necessary to avoid amputation.

SCHOOLS LOSING
VALUE

Trenton, N. J.-Expressing fear
that 100000 New Jersey school child
ren may be victims of demoralized
and broken down educational system
due to underpaid teachers, Governor
Runyon has called attention of local
boards of estimates to "the gravity of
the sit1&tion."
New Jersey, he said, faces the i'm
mediate prospect of closing schools or
drawing into the teaching profession
a still larger number of those made
quately trained and those without spe-
cial preparation for the work.
''If orr children are to be taught by
incompetent teachers or are not to be
taught at all, the end of American
democracy as we know it is in sight, +"
the governor declared.

Coddling Profiteers
And Deporting ''Reds" viii
Not Bring Peace

Observation-Disclosures peace and
social order will not result through a
policy of deporting reds" and coddl-
ing profteers, declared A. F. of l..
Vice President Vol in a letter to VIII
Fl. Hays, chairman of the republican
national committee, in reply to a
query by the latter rearding labor's
views on social and Industrial ques-
tions.
The trade unionist's answer includes
several thousand words, and its tone
is indicated by the following:
''It is sad commentary upon the
history and development of our land
that the state and nation, instead of
maintaining just, fair and natural
equilibrium of personal rights, privi-
leges and relations, not only under
took to place arbitrary corporate ad-
vantages and powers in the hands of
a few, but at the same time undertook
by affirmative action to destroy or
render ineffective the hope and aspir-
alton of the great mass of our people
the workers-to protect themselves
against the exercise of these great
corporate powers delegated exclus-
iveness into the hands of a few to
dominate the lives and destiny of the
many without restraint or limita-
tions."
The trade unionist opposes the Civ
ing charter rights to corporations
that deny their workers the right to
bargain collectively
UNLESS such a check is placed on
the corporate powers, now granted to
the state individuals, the domestic
conflict which is now raging in the
midst of US cannot and will not be
permanently ended.
1t should also be remembered that
from the inception of modern civili-
zation the privileged few, either by an
alleged divine right, hereditary as
sumption or by legislation, have put
proper rights, most of which were
stolen rights, above human rights.
We have now reached a period of civ
ilization when men should be placed
before and above the dollar Activi-
ties and results with this end in view
should not and cannot longer be ig-
nored with safety to the nation and
our people.
"If we are to remove the existing
unrest, it is essential that criminal
profteering shall be put to an end.
The cost of necessities has gone up
with leaps and bounds, and this in
crease has not been due to proper
tionate increase of labor cost. On
the contrary, the workers have been
unable to keep pace with the ever
increasing cost of the necessities of
life and as long as this condition
exists serious discomfort and unrest
will prevail.
"To deport the reds and at the
same time coddle the profteers will
not bring us to a state of domestic
tranquility"
