'The question involved is whether the fishermen will conscentousy remove all undersized salmon from the hook so that they may be returned to the water alive and will survive the ordeal"
 He seems to be imbued with the idea that the fishermen ruthless and cannot be depended upon to help out in the conservation of fish in any manner and that class they out to rob the streams of echoes in the month of September. The only who endorse his conservation plans are the big packers who are under virtually no restrictions and who operate their fish traps without any material interference.
 It is to be regretted that the Trolers' Asso- citation should receive this slap in the face after the dignified and courteous manner in which they approached the proposition of modifying the win ter closing order

SUTHERLAND COMMENTS ON O'MALLEY'S CLOSING ORDERS AGAINST TROLLERS

Probably in this mail the Alaska Trollers As sociation will receive Commissioner OMalley's let ter of April 26t on the subject of regulations for king salmon trolling You will note that the iginal subject regarding the winter closed season on power boat trolling is not mentioned, but they have gone off further regulations which be- ieve are much more drastic than the winter clos ing to power boats.
 MT. OMalley says that there lis more than an even chance' that they will rescind the win ter closing order when the regulations for 1880 are published in the coming December.
 Dennis Winn Recommends
 -. This idea of a closed season from the 24th of commended by MT. Winn who called upon for data regarding king salmon catch through the months of the year, upon which data believe the Commissioner intended to base his action the winter closing order.
 A Harsh Measure
 - This closing from August 24th to September 30th is in my opinion a pretty harsh measure and I told MT. O'Malley that it was much ser- ous question than the winter closing to power boats He claims that it is for the purpose of PRESERVING THE SILVER SALMON, and says that many of the rollers go into the streams with nets during the fall season to catch echoes. ad- vised him that if such the case it was up to him to protect the streams from illegal fishing and it did not seem fair to penalize all the salmon trollers because some of them had violated the law The attitude of the Bureau of Fisheries to- ward independent fishermen is clearly shown in quotation from the third paragraph of Commits stoner O'Malley's letter which reads:
The Alaska fisherman., 1929-07-15
A SATISFACTORY WARDEN

Dennis Wnn tne field agent of the Bureau of Fisheries, said that he had investigated the charg- of the people of Yakutat against warden Harry Pryde-a man who got his FIRST hold on official life by himself circulating petition among sev- eral hundred Indians-and that he found him to be very satisfactory warden
 This can only mean that wardens are sats- factory to the Bureau of Fisheries when they per- secute the residents of Alaska by annoying them by harassing them, by making false criminal charges against them and by kissing the feet of big packer-all of which acts Henry OMalley and Dennis Vim commend.
 The charges against Pryde grew out of his at tempt to arrest two white men of Yakutat who took 62 fish from Ankow River for food for their families. But Pryde, the satisfactory fish warden tried to arrest then1 and would have done so but for the courage of the former United States Con- missioner, (since removed altho no cause stated) who pointed out the fact that the very law under which Pryde claimed to be acting provided "That nothing contained herein shall prevent the taking of fish for local food requirements or for the use as dog feed."
The Alaska fisherman., 1929-07-15

The Bureau of Fisheries anounce that they will this summer follow the STRICT INTERFERE PATTON OF THE LAW. By this they mean that boats caught with fish INSIDE THE LINE will be

Jersey City Election on Fight
Appears as Mini AZURE Battle

Ct&AA
JERSEY CITY, N. j.. May Is
Towns 60 fight man, oil mad. gold
mad, baseball mad. This city is pol
tiles mad.
The machine OF Mayor Frank
Hague, state democratic boss. which
poued seven votes out Of eight at
the last municipal election in 1925,
seems to have a close fight on its
hands during the campaign which
ENDS May II at the polls.
Fighting Hague Is a fusion ticket
consisting of two republicans and
three anti-Hague democrats.
Hague says the issue Is whether
MS machine shall extend It's "effi-
cient span Of government to 20 I'M
interrupted years or whether the
Jersey Journal, leading the battle
against him, shall be allowed to
continue its scandalous attacks on
Jersey City officials"
The Jersey Journal SAYS the is
U Is whether "Hagueism" (syn-
onymous with misgovernment and

shall be given a vote OF confidence
by popular will.
Heavy Vote Likely

the view. Anti-Hague leaders con-
cede $4,000 Of these to Hague. They
say If he gets enough more to make
$4,000 in all he will do well. Hague
says he viii poll 10000 or more.
Seldom will an election have beer
decided on lines more sharply
drawn. There are only two tickets
OF five candidates each.
The Jersey Journal Is fighting
Hague up and down the front page
and laundering editorial denuncia-
ton. Hague has every gun trained

The Jersey Journal Is owned and
operated by brother. Walter NJ. and

his allegations that Hague denied
him the right of free speech brought
the American Civil Liberties union
20 his aid.
Jeff, as he Is known. withdrew as
an independent anti-Hague candi-
date to support the fusion ticket.
He has bet 500 against 81 900 that
this bracket will beat Hague 2 to /
and has another century note at
even money that the ti-Hagues
will win.
Six men attacked Jeff Burkitt one
noon as the campaign neared the
climax. Fighting alone he was tip
ped over twice but knocked down
two OF his assialants.
Rough Tactics
Shortly after Jeff was assaulted,
James Cullom. who tried to address
a Burkitt rally after Burkitt had
submitted to one of his numerous
arrests by police. was beaten up in
the basement OF the Hudson county
court house by the chief OF the
county police and three OF his men.
IL was charged by Cullom and the
republican prosecutor. who had the
police held for the grand jury.
