THE FISH QUESTION

We. have been in the Territory some twenty years, most of the time on the CoaSt. says the Sitka Tribune, but what we do not know about the fish question, would fill the Congressional Library We have read and listened to fish experts, near-experts, cannerymen. fishermen officials and pencil pu4lers, only to become the more confused. How ever, it seems to be expected of every self respecting newspaper to brew a kettle of fish of some kind and the Tribune doesn't want to be the only one with nothing to say, even though We say nothing in say ing it. There was one thing even our obtuse editorial mind could un- derstand and that was the necessity of doing something to save and per petuate the fish. But the minute re- serves were crated for allowing fish escapement up goes another awful howl, with everybody calling every body names. Just as soon as two and two make four. if enough fish escape, everyone will have fish, but if the fish don't escape no one will have fish, and there you are. Let's have an armistice or a moratorium or ultimatum on the fish and after enough shall have escaped to insure a supply, then we can begin the fight over again about who catches them and how they shall be caught

ASTORIA CONCRETE CITY

Engineers wrestling with the pro blem of reconstructing Astoria's business district, which was wrecked by the fire of December s, 1922, have decided that instead of filling in the streets with earth a better method would be to build concrete viaducts with concrete walls at the sides. The city commission has given it's approval to this plan and work has begun.
 When Astoria was built ovet the mud flats along the bank of the Columbia river wood piling was used to support the streets. These street supports served as tunnels for the flames to spread in all directions and were responsible for the extent of the confagration.
 One suggestion of those planning the rebuilding of Astoria was to build retaining walls along the streets solidly with earth, but the concrete viaduct plan according to its proponents, would leave space beneath for laying municipal and public service pipes, wires and con- duits, and would be more econom- ical than solid fill. It was pointed out that it would be fully as safe from fire if heavy concrete retain ing walls are built at curb lines and fire curtains at all intersections.

BONE. DRY PROHIBITION
GAINING FAVOR IN CALF.
Governor Friend w. Richardson
is Stressing Issue to
Utmost
FIRM HAND GREAT NEED.
When Officers Reporting to Old
Bosses Are Eliminated New
Day Will Dawn

According to staff correspondent
in the Christian Science Monitor, writ
ing under San Francisco datelne of
November %, public opinion in Cali
fornia is rapidly solidifying on de-
manding bone-dry prohibition en-
forcement Governor Friend w.
Richardson is stressing the imperative
necessity for increased. federal re-
sponsibility and aid by officers of the
coast guard service. In signed
statement to the representative of the
Christian Science Monitor Governor
Richardson says:
What we need in California is d-
rect, uncompromising federal re-
sponsibility to enforce prohibition.
Honest federal officials here should be
supported more strongly and bootleg
sympathizers put out of office. When
the wet officers who report to the
bosses of the old political machine,
are eliminated new day of constitu-
tional respect will dawn in Califor-
MIA.
The government of California will
cooperate with President Coolidge to
the utmost in bringing 10 justice vio-
lators of the Constitution, but we ex-
pect him to cooperate with us by re-
moving from federal positions those
men of the old political machine who
have attempted in every way to make
travesty of the Constitution and
bring reproach upon the name of our
state. When the political rascals are
superseded by honest men who stand
foursquare for the Constitution, then
even the wettest spots in our state can
be dried up.
THE United States government
alone can prevent liquor Importation
We need naval forces to do it. Cal
ifornia has seacoast of 800 miles on
the west and a border of the Mexican
republic needing guard. The gov
eminent also grants permits to manu-
facture alcohol in this state and COM
plants have been made of lax methods
and questionable sales. This is due
to temporary lag in public sentiment
following the passage of the Wright
act last year, partly to indifference of
county and city officials and partly to
the character of some of the men hold
ing government positions.
With these hndicaps more def
mite federal policy of rigid enforce
ment in every state presses with per-
sisent urgency. The state has no
state guards or state constabulary.
The governor of California has no po-
lice powers. He can not arrest men
or put them in Jail. He can use the
national guard only in cases of riot.
The governor can by appealing to the
people exercise moral force for law
enforcement and this force he has used
and will continue to use, but we need
help from Washington beyond what
compromising policy of enforcement
and federal judiciary have rendered
u.s."
