DIFFERENCE IN ALASKA HERRING


 
 George A. Rounsfell investigator for the U. S. Bureau of Fisheries has definitely established for the Bureau, the fact that at least in Alaska, her. ring not all alike. He declares that different races tribes Of the species inhabt various gions of the coast and he has shown that these clans of fish do but little migrating or travelling This verifies the statement by fishermen of Alaska
 The charge has been made through the col umns of this paper and in the columns of the Alaskan published at Petersburg that depletion of the herring fisheries would be an accomplish ed fact unless remedial regulatory measures were forthcoming at very early date. It has been our observation that areas inhabited by herring have been fished out and that those areas have not been restocked by other schools of herring The species in Alaska differs from that of Nor way in that the Norway herring is of virtually the same stock which return to the same spawn ing While in Alaska, the species is pecu- liar to each district and when the district is de- pleted there is no reseeding of that in the following years. The operation of herring fer tizer plants putting up millions of pounds of fertilizer and oil spelled the death of this fine food fish. The herring are being exploited on to tremendous a scale.
 The catch of Alaska herring has averaged about 160,00000o pounds year during the past four years. The bureau of fisheries has at last been importuned to have some concern about the fisheries Mr.. Rounsefell last year in his report published in the Pacific Fisherman de- clared that if fishing becomes too severe in any area there is grave danger of decimating the breeding stock for the reason that the herring do not migrate as do the herring of Norway and other fish do not come to replace those caught The responsibility of depletion of this fishery

abuse the confidence voters have placed in members of that party.
 The important questions that will come up for settlement within the next two years-some of the issues the most important in the city in years-ought to impress all mem, bers of the winning party, from the organization leaders down, with the unusually heavy responsibility they are assuming. A mistake made in such an important problem within the next two years will plague the city for decades. That prudence and carefulness which was mentioned during the campaign as a requisite during the next two years should not be overlooked or forgotten now that the votes have been counted.

FULL SPEED AHEAD

The tumult and the shouting dies, as Mr. hipling had it. At least, that dies which passes for tumult and shouting in a local election.
 Mr. Quigley becomes the new Mayor and the city extends to him congratulations and the wish for d successful administration.
 Much is said and done Gin the heat of 8 political campaign which is best forgotten after the votes are counted. Human nature is out to win--and one things leads to sn- other, Candidates-and especially their heipers-say and do things which makes the experienced cam paigner smile and reminiscence that the same thing occurred 30 years ago. Politics. or the methods Of poll :. ties do not change much. The only points that are different from days when the new Mayor wore knee pants is that the means of locomo- tion to and from the polls has been accelerated and voting machines take the place of lead pencils.
 Outside of these things the busi ness Of getting elected or defeated is about the same. The people con- unue to be swayed by the same emo- tions and they vote according to the same formula as in days Of old.
