B. C. Packers Situation Gloomy.
(Prince Rupert News.)

Faced with the likelihood of large carry-over from last years pack, owing to demoralized mar ket the fishing industry in British Columbia will enter upon 1881 operations with less tenebrous outlook It hardly to be expected that this industry, with it's abnormay large pack, could escape the world trade debace, and come through unscathed. And canner and fishermen alike will be forced to face the inevitable lean year in sight best they
 It is quite apparent that the keen and intensive competition challenging for the world markets now met with will be materially increased in the future compelling the industry to adjust itself to the situation, by adopting a more economic plan of operation coupled with a comprehensive and n- telligent marketing system.
 It is no secret that some of the difficulties confronting the industry today is past extravagant and wasteful operating methods. fostered by the cocksuredness of finding ready market at top prices Failing to anticipate the coming slump and sell when it might have been possible at a fair price, has obviously resulted in free-for-all scramble to unload at runous quotations.
 Under existing circumstances. therefore, 1t IS imperative that 1881 will witness much curtaied canned salmon pack in the hope that the demand will overtake the supply on hand thereby clearing the boards.
 It is already known that a considerable num- Der of canneres will remained closed this sea- son, with a consequent diminished payroll, and the fishermen will no doubt be confronted with the necessity of selling his catch at big price cut over last year.
 The redeeming feature in an otherwise de- plorabe situation is that the industry has awakened to the necessity and possibility of creating greater demand in the home market for its product by focusing public attention on the many advantages of generous canned salmon bill-of-fare, attractively set forth by that modern business stimuator- advertising It will be interesting to watch the reaction

NOT FOR NATIONAL POLITICAL
 ACTION.

The current fuss over alleSc6 scandals in the local government for New York City which was the theme recently selected by the Republican Ma tional Committee publicity experts for broadside leading up to the national campaign of next year is matter to be settled by New Workers and has no part in national politics, says the New York Evening Post Curtis publication and of the strongest Republican newspapers of the country It pointedly advised the National Committee publicity artists to keep their hands off the subject as fol- lows:
 We do not particularly thank the Re-
 publican National Committee for "butting
 into" the affairs of New York State and
 seeking to make Republican capital out of
 the present situation in regard to nves-
 tigation of New York City government In
 the first place, the blame for the lack of
 such thing rests upon the shoulders of
 Republican boss and two Republican State
 Senators; in the second, don't want to
 any more political partisanship in it
 than we have to have. Every time Chair
 Fess and his prize aide MT. Lucas,
 touch New York affairs they bunge them.
 We wonder if they don't do it everywhere
 It is not denied that the National Committees ..Im was to disturb national confidence in Gov Franklin D Roosevelt. It considers him at this time the outstanding possibility for the Democratic nomination It is seeking to tie him up to the Tammany organization in New York City to turn Democratic support in other sections of the country away from him. The Evening Post which is on the ground, well as other Eastern publications has praised Gov Roosevelt for his handling of the New York situation. He has appointed special judicial investigators, is Investigating the State District Attorney for the City. and has requested Mayor Walker to reply to certain general charges affecting the conduct of the mayoraty.
 Gov. Roosevelt has never been affiliated with Tammany Hall. For years he openly opposed it. During the time former Gov AT Smith was su- preme in the Tigers councils and Judge Olvaney was it's chieftan, he abandoned his opposition With the decline of exGov. Smiths influence in the or ganization and the concurrent rise of J. F. Curry as it's leader, Gov. Roosevets attitude has been of impartiality This is generally known that any effort to link him up with the society

1t is bad practice to give a lift
