The proposal embodied In a resolu- tior presented toathe provincial legis- Iature of British Columbia recently. providing for rehabilitation of the salmon industry in the Fraser river. provided the State of Washington takes similar measures to restrict fishing in Puget Sound waters, re. calls the fact that the salmon streams of Washington and B. 0. have been almost completely ished out. It was in an attempt to re- stock the Washington streams with humpback salmon that the opera -tions of the Washington State Fish Commission were instituted in AL aska this past summer, whereby a large number of salmon eggs were taken from Alaskan waters, appar- ently without due permission having been given.
 Today, in speaking Of the work undertaken by the Washington state Fish Commission this summer in Fi- dalgo Bay, Prince, William Sound. Mr. s. A. Baker, agent of the Bu- reau of Fisheries in Central Alaska, stated that the commission made two shipments of hump5aclo OBgs, cone on October 9, and the other on October 22. which shipments tOtailed approx imately I4,7OO, ,OOO eggs. -..
 MT. Baker said, Tt is my under standing that the officials of the Washington State Fish Commission took up the matter of collecting humpback salmon eggs in Alaska, for the purpose of restocking Puget Sound waters in off years, and were told by the bureau that, if they could locate an Alaskan salmon stream in virgin condition, their proposition would be given. due consideration. No action was taken, however, at that time, the matter being appar- eutly dropped.
 Permission to take 15,OOO,000 humpback eggs was not granted by the bureau to- the Washington State Fish Commission until after repre- sentatives of the Commission had al- ready entered the field and begun egg-collecuon operations, which work was commenced without the knowledge or consent Of the blureau. This permission probably would not have been granted, even after the

AlaSka'S RYers Arc Looked
 To For Stock. Salmon Eggs

Washington State Fish Commission had begun work, he'd 1t not been for the fact that there was an unu5ual- Fly large run of humpback salmon in Prince William Sound this past sea- son. It is my understanding that it was the original plan to take to- tai Of 5O.O0O,OOO eggs from South eastern and Central Alaska.
 "It Is the policy of the Bureau to safeguard, by careful scientific SUI pervision, any stream from which eggs are removed, in order that such stream may maintain its normal run. The Bureau feels that every district in Alaska has been very intensively Asked. and does not consider advis- able at this time the removing of eggs in large numbers from Alaska waters, for the purpose of re-estab- fishing depleted runs in streams on Puget Sound or elsewhere on the Pa cific Coast.
 "The bureau regretted to be fore ed to oppose the work of the State of Washington, but such action as was taken, it was felt, was for the best interests of the Alaskan fisher les, and was taken with the intention of safeguarding the future runs not only of the humpback salmon but of all other species"
 It is probable, if care Is taken in choosing the streams from which they are secured, that all the salmon eggs needed by the State of Washington for restocking it's depleted streams can be had in Alaska without injury to our own salmon runs, provided, of course, that the legal requirements are compiled with fully. That is to say, if for every million eggs taken from Alaskan streams for transplant ing. in Washington the required per- Centage of fry or eyed eggs are turn ed back into the streams from which the eggs are taken or other streams within the Territory 1t is reasonable 10 believe that there will be no in- terference. from Federal Of Ter. ritorial officials. But if the Washing ion State Fish Commission. in 1924 seeks to invade Alaskan salmon spawning streams without regard either for law or reasonable respect for the rights of the Territory 1t should be restrained at all hazards. j..

CHINA IS IN EARNEST

Picking, Dec. I.-"Opium InUsl be abolished" says the President of China, in a forocful mandate recent ly issued. Th9 government mas ap- pointed a committee to investigate the traffic The members inc'uIe lhc military and civil authorities of ev- cry province. A member from the International Anti-Opium Society will be given a seat, also. The vari- ous educational, missionary and an- ti-vice societies of all China are re- quested to cooperate.
 We mean business this time" say officials. The committee is armed with full powers, and it's work has the unanimous approval of the Cabl- net. The situation Is described as Serious, for the growth of the poppy has been steadily on the increase. This Is laid to the military, who de- rive large profits in the collection of opium taxes and the granting Of illegal permits. Full publicity iS now proposed, and the war lords must face the issue whether they wish 1t or not.
 The investigation Will be carried on when the poppy Is in bloom, SO that there vii be no chanie-for con- cealment In the past many. of the inspectors have been handicapped for lack of tangible evidence With public opinion really stirred it la hoped t5 get results.

They also assert that until Burma and india and cth- CT members of the British Far East orn colonies are also prohibited from raising this crop there w.ll be no ap- preciabla decrease in the manUiac- ture or sale of opium In the maun- tainous districts the coolies smoke about one pill a night, and this mod crate consumption is said to be no more harmful than tobacco. The stimulant also permits them to rest during the cold, wet night and Is practically the only pleasure they have.
 A much more sinister drug, which is working havoc among the poor people, is morphine. This has been brought in to large extent by Jap anese smugglers. Whole villages have been ruined, and the Japanese have been protected by their extra territoriality privilege. The Nippon government is taking measures to punish its subjects engaged in thi6 traffic.

DON'T BE TOO FUNNY

A sense of humcr is an admirable thing in helping one over the rough places of life. People whu cun laugh at the same things have a bond of sympathy that helps them to get along together. And 1t was Uonglas Jerr2id, wasn't it, who said: Laugi- ter, Laughter, 'tis the poor mans plaster, covering up each sad dis aster. p But we folks must be care fuI not to hurt peoples feelings by laughing at a ludicrous remark or performance in which the customer seems to figure as the victim.

Discovery of an outcroping of quartz on Douglas Island near the old Treadwel holdings carrying ore assaying as high as g. per ton, Is reported by Guy L. Smith, repregen- tative of The Empire on the Island The find was made by men in the employ of a haIf-dozen business men of Douglas.
 Reports of the find recently reach ed the states and were magnified, one having it that the ore body would rival that of the old Tread we'll diggings. Surface indications are said to be encouraging but it will take development work to de- termine the existence of a workable orebody.
 In regard to the discovery and rumors current about it, Mir Smith said:

covered. From a small section of the ore body which has so far been exposed, samples taken have given assays of as high as $7 to the tor. The ultimate value of the find can not be determined until the extent of the ore body with it's values are known.
 "The results of the finding a sec ond Treadwell gold mine can hardly be overestimated. When operations at Treadwell have almost entirely ceased which has seemed imminent for quite a period, Douglas will suf- fer accordingly With that in mind, six business men got together in the early spring of this year for the purpose of trying to locate a mine near enough to Douglas to benefit the town proper. Everyone in the town would then benefit according to his interest.
 During the last 30 or 70 years rich float ore has been picked up at various times in the hills back of Douklas and to find such ore in place or the main ledge which cast off the rich float has been the keen desire of many we'll known pros- pectors. It is these facts which have added inspiration to the busi- ness men of the town in their quest. " Juneau Empire.
