For scveral years local tions in the Bristol Bay and Al tricts have been paid five cents for trout taken by them. In this manner a campalign of extermination was waged against this species of fish which are classed as most destructive to sal- ggs and fry in stupendous numbers wning grounds. The bounty was paid through the United States Bureau of Fisheries. The bounty has been reduced to two cents lately. This brings forth from the Seward Gateway a pro- test in which it rather caustically takss the Bureau of Fisheries to task for a enny wise pound foolish” attitude. 1In particular instance, the bureau is not the responsible party. The salmon trout bounty was inauvgu: ed by the Territory some three years ago. The funds for it were appropriated by Ter al Legislature. The current reduction from five to two cents was occasioned by the fact that economy in orial expenditures at time is absolutely y. Th2 Bureau of Fish- eries is merely the agent of Alaska in acting as putting the reduction into effect. in certain sec- salmon mon, eating this FINNISH JUDGES CONDEMN PROHIBITION.

The wonder is, is the material for propaganda to come from? certainly, from the one source that would pmducr- all such news if Prohibition were successfully en- forced—the Federal Prohibition Bureau. There Mr Woodcock, beleagured chisf of the dry forces, is trying to push back the unsubsiding wave of illicit liquor. The old and honorable argument that Prohibi-| gion would turn all the country’'s money away I'om waste and into productive lines and would Iormm eliminate poverty and hard times is rather moldly | just now.
