Tax Sale Lots Are Not Serious Menace. The delegation waiting mi the city council last night in -regard to the disjRisid of tax sale lots over-emphasizes a -itua- tiou which is uutin the least serious and with which mot other cities are dealing without taking any unusual steps. Tu. pro. portion of rit lots held here compared' with other places is very small and in a good many oa-e the lots so held are not at all desirable. Some are in swamps or holes and others on the side of almosljirecipitoiis bluffs and a. good mauy have no street or approach of any kind over vhich a vehicle nwM pass. As a mailer of fact, considering the size of tlu townsite and the number of strwts-which so far appear only tin the map. the city is unusually well situated. Mol of the lots held by the city-are so' held because they are not desirable fur building purpose aud it pays better to purchase lots from Iho-e wishing to sol! Tat her thau to buy from the city. The publicity brought about by this tlrive tor a change has been beneficial as it shows how particularly well situate! we are here compared with other cities.- On. some streets here it i almost impossipunUi buy a lot asli!Dwiiers all wish to hold for future use. if also must lie remealbwefl that a lot- in Prince Rupert is remlv tifilrhalf a lot as ft'Ts bliL'Sr. feel wide wlirr 50 fe should be the nrinimdmfo residential building pur poses. . Taking Chances On B.C. Mine. R. K. Neill. the man who brought the Premier mine from a prospect to become a producer, says-.he took a rhanre and won. He did not depend wholly on chaucei either, lie went up thei" in the hills and worked hard but the end justified it. Most people will Ink)- a garrfble Miiietitue and if they an doing it we suggest llit tlie gamble on a mine i- better than one on a Uor care.

As lrifimeii are favorites everywhere and with everyone, the day they celebrate has special significance. The shamrock is in evidence iid there is a little .more than u-itnl of national pride in the native Irishman or the Canadian descendant ef the IrisJi on this day. He walks with n more jaunty air and holds his head a litye higher. It is rattyrwnndfrfiil thalifroni so" small a.cotintry with a comparatively small population there, should lie such a large number of Irishmen in the world. ' Alaska Takes. Steps To Protect Game.

' During the la few rear, the. salmon fisheries of this district have produced more than dnuldC Ihe park f the ret of the pro vince. The district is tltu getting more attention and. therefore conseration is more than ever nereary. Not Handicap Industry While the prime intention of the department is to conserve !h; fisheries, Mr. Maekie slates. it is not the intention to have conservation measures unduly handicap the industry. The work on the coast, it is pointed out, is onjy a part of the overseer's work which often extends for hundreds of miles away from the coastl It is nereary ' keep in Uiuclf with conditions in the in- leriof ,sjiaw-!URg ground -u as to leal tafaUieeaily with comlHions on the coast. Th fih must le allowed to spawn and il is mainly for that reaswn that regulations must be applied on (he coasi where ttie fishing takes place. The danger of over fisbinc, Mr. Maekie point out. i more likely in the seinins than in the gill net areas because the stream on which seining is done are smaller and it is not a diffi-rull matter to stop the entire' run. rishcries officers have the privilece of closing areas to fishing when it is found they are depleted and this year it is the in- tentiou to take groalor advantage of this authority if the fishing beeomes o intensive. ! Reports Satisfactory Last year, the fiblng wa in tensive nod the pack was large but reports from the pavvning grounds were satisfactory and.; in the majority of cae. Ihey wcreTomjiarntively well seeded The Intention of the deparlmejit is lo take steps to assure that the spawning ground; shall continue to lie seeded. For that nvison. the suggestion has tieen ndvancej that the weekly close season should be extended and that fishing shmild.be stopped earlier in the fall if it is found that parent fish are not getting past the nets in sufficient numbers ami that the grounds are thus not being sufficiently seeded. So far as the fishing regulations are concerned. Mr. Maekie anticipates that there will lie prao!ij!aliy no change from last year. The season for taking salmon with gill nets of a mesh not less than o inches starts on January I hut fishing for sock-eye, in which a mesh of not less than 5 inches is allowed, does not start until June 20. The fishing with soekeye nets 4 usually stopped about August 20 and. after that date, there is jh period of approximately len days when no nets of less than fiVa inch mesh are allowed. After the ten iiays Jias elaped( fishermen may again use the's?; .inch mesh nets provided the local of ficer is satisfied that the run of soekeye and pink salmon has passed to the spawning grounds. Activities Starting v title nshing and canning of spring salmon may be started by some canneries in May. the sea son does not reach its height unto soekeye fishing opens litis DA1I.V MW3 iiii-ii4. m.
