At what precise minute that little
airy musician, the lark, doffs his night
cap and prepares to tune up his unsea-
sonable mathis we are not naturalists
enough to determine. But for mere
human gentleman-that has no orches-
ira business to call him from his warm
bed to such q preposterous exercise-we
take 10 or half after 10 III. of course
during the Christmas holidays) to be
the very earliest hour at which he can
begin to think Of abandoning his
pillow.
We think of it, we say, for to do II
in earnest requires another half hour S
good consideration. Not but there are
such like gawds, abroad in the world
in Summertime especially, some hours
before what we have assigned which
a gentleman may see. as they say, only
for getting up. But having been
tempted once or twice in earlier life to
assist at those ceremonies. we confess
our curiosity abated. We are no longer
ambitious of being the suns courtiers
to attend at his morning risings. We
hold the good hours Of the dawn too
sacred to waste them upon such OBJ
Servances, which have in them, besides,
something pagan.
To say truth, we never anticipated
our usual hour or got up with the sun
(as tits called to 60 journey or upon
q foolish whole days pleasuring but
We suffered for 1t all the long hours

ture herself sufficiently declaring her
sense Of our presumption in aspiring to
regulate our frail waking courses by the
measures Of that celestial and sleepless
traveler-the sun. We deny not that
there is something sprightly and vigor-
GUS, at the outset especially, in these
break-of-day excursions. 1t is f1atter-
ing to get the start of lazy world, to
conquer death by proxy in his image.
But the seeds Of sleep and mortality
are In us, and We pay usually in strange
oualms before night falls the penalty Of
the unnatural inversion. Therefore,
while the busy part of mankind are fast
budding on their clothes, are already
up and about their occupations, content
to have swallowed their sleep by whole
sale, we choose to linger abed and
digest our dreams.
1t is the very time to recombine the
wandering images which night In a
confused mass presented; to snatch
them from forgetfulness; to shape and
mold them. Some people have no good
of their dreams. Like fast feeders they
gulp them too grossly to taste them
curiously. We love to chew the cud Of
a foregone vision; to collect the scat
tered rays of a brighter fantasm, or
act over again with firmer nerves the
sadder nocturnal tragedies; to drag
into daylight a struggling and half
vanishing nightmare; to handle and
examine the terrors or the airy solaces.
We have too much respect for these
spiritual communications to let them
go so lightly. We are not so stupid
or so careless as that imperial forgotten
of his dreams that we should need q

Forget Responsibility
"It will give journalism a
new dignity if it shocks
people into a realization of
the fact that all collections
Of paper and ink are not
newspapers in the true
sense Of the word.
"There are others whose
owners have become rich
and who, corrupted by the
wealth the public has placed
in their control, have wholly
forgotten their responsible
ties to those who have made
their success possible. The
developments which have
been impairing the indepen-
dence of a free press in re-
cent years have been many

ders of the power company
managers will prove very
useful if they inspire the
people to examine more crit
ically the newspapers they
are accustomed to rely
upon.

management and directors
of a public utility who have
demonstrated such greed

Proof of Interest

"The nationwide atten-

attracted and the profound
sensation it has caused in
every circle furnish indis-
putable proof of the fact
that the people are deeply
interested in the integrity

its complete freedom from

democratic government.
"All too frequently in

Marine News

schooners of the most modern type were to be seen at the docks of the Juneau Cold Storage this morning. The boats are from Ketchikan and Petersburg.
 The Akutan was mentioned in the press on numerous occasions this winter in connection with the missing boats Brunvoll and Inn perial, which are still unheard from. The two ships became among the missing when the fish ing season was closed last Novom- Der 15. No trace of the 13 men comprising the crews or the ships has been found. The Akutan was one of the searching vessels that combed the Gulf of Alaska waters for weeks in a vain effort to find a trace of the Brunvoll and Imperial.
 Halibut boat shippers on the waterfront today said it was not unlikely that some of the numer- ous boats that will work in the Gulf and along the coast this sea son may find some clue to the missing ships. The severe weath- CT that for several weeks this win ter kept more than one likely place of refuge for the vessels stormbound, has abated and from now on it will be possible for small boats to enter and search these places, especially is this so of Middleton Island, in which vi cinity the Brunvol and Imperial were last sighted Middleton was unapproachable all winter.
 Nearly all of the local fleet has | put to sea, but the arrival of the fleet from Ketchikan and Peters burg is keeping the local front in state of activity. Nearly all of the vessels of the larger type will be off for the banks tomorrow The smaller boats are leaving all the time, but these do not go out far to sea. but fish in the closer grounds.

URGING B. (. TO PROTECT SALMON FROM THEIR FOES

VICTORIA, Feb. 13.-Protectlon of the spawning grounds from the natural enemy of the fish. was ad- vocated in the legislature by Dr. Wrinch of Skeena as q means of restoring the sockeye run in B. e. streams.
 Taking exception to pessim,stic views on the outlook for the sal mon industry, he told the house of experiments recently brought ito his notice which were held years ago in Alaska.
 There, he said, a stream had been fenced and for a period of about ten years 1.500 sockeye alone were permitted to pass through the spawning grounds. All othar kinds of salmon as well as other fish that preyed on them were shut ont. When the cycle year brought the soekeye back again it was discovered that there was run of 30,000 fish where before there had been only 10000 Simi- lar results were claimed for every year. It was the protection giv- en the breeding grounds that had wrought the change, MT. Wrinch believed.
 As the hatcheries and ot h r schemes to replenish the B. C.. run failed to stem depletion, he suggested that other protective experiments be carried out by the Government. So far as he knew no tests of this kind had been tried elsewhere, he said.
