This year trolling has not been so good, but so far the catch of salnrou Jii ' the .Skeeha exceeds the catch of last year. This is particularly tnie of sockeye, which are the expensive fish. On the Xaas River the . spekeye catch is. also ahead of last year.' This means that there should be some money to speud when the season is over. The high price of fish is" good for-the' community. -' Mclvor Article Worthy of Attention. The article on the Prince RupeVt elevator republished ves terday from the U. F. A. is one of the best advertisements Prince Rupert has had. But more than that it is an indication of what George Mclvor, sales manager of the Wheat Pool, thinks of St Una or the interest he is now taking in this orl. Those Prince Rupert people who.did not read the article ve terday should do so now, unless they fear to get enthusiastic over me possibilities or the port. Bowser is Wise In Keeping Out.

I, S 1111 V. II. tihortridgti, James Black, Capl. J. Morrison, 'rank Derry, Hen Dalgarno, A. O. Cromp and V. L. Sandison appeared before the city council last night iinil presented a petition signed by 325 persons' prplesjiiug against Uu charge for niphlsoil collection and asking for its repeal. After the delenu-lion had been heard and some liseussion had been indulged m by members of the council the matter was referred lo the fi nance committee to be dealt with next Friday night with members of the delegation in attendance. J. J. Gillis, the first speaker for the delegation, referred to the petition against the charge which had- been signed by over .100 persons, the whole field having not even then been cov ered. It was fell that the chargi was not in keeping with good judgment and, therefore, it was he in; protested against with the request that It be repealed. Public opinion against the charge he fell was becoming stronger. Opposition was not expressed against garbage charge liccause it was made generally all over the city. As the city as a whole had paid for the sewerage system il was felt thai il was unfair to nrakc a direct rharpe for nightsoil collection. preeendent was being eslab lished that might lead to further trouble. Already residents of outlying sections bad enough (axes to pay without b finer sad lied wilh the nitfhtsoil charge. Refuse Service W. H. iSliortridfre read ami presented the petition to the council. After referring to the alleged unfairness of the nightsoil charge, the petition staled that, if the charge were en forced, a sewerage system would be demanded. Speaking personally, Mr. Short ridge stated that If he were compelled to pay Uncharge, he would not take the service hut would look after the nconveniencc himself. He rlaimed thai the charge was an injustice and stated that the pe tition though not yet complete had been signed by 325 resi dents. James Black stated that the petition had only been circulated in tsections 2, if, 7, and a. Many names could have been ob tained in Section t where flic petition had not been circulate.). Aid. Casey staled that the charcre complained of had no! been conceived wilh any desire lo shove the burden on the out lying sections of the city bin rather as a measure lo assist ii keeping down the rale of taxa- lion. Further il had been fell thai the charge covered a per sonal fervice. It was a difficult matter to fly in the face ol public opinion but he did pot sic how any relief could be given this year a this council had already taken into consideration in connection with the year? estimates the money that woubj be derived from the charge. Ho did not see how the chant) could bo repealed unless sonic pther practicable ' means of raising the money could be de vised.

Lumen said tbat. as far as he was concerned, il was a question of whether the charge was fair or unfair. When the bylaw passed Ihe council lie had understood thai Section I had paid for Its own sewerage sys tern hut since he had found that the Section I sewerage syslcin bad been paid for by the (fily as a wholo which was still pay ing for Interest and malnlen ance. therefore he could nol see that it was fair for the out lying district to be chawed di 'eel for nigh.lsoil collection, when (hey had, already paid a share of the sewers Hint had been built. .Since so many pcopl were opposed to the nlhlsoll charge, the Keneral concensus tit opinion must be that il was an unfair charge. Aid. .los. Oreer felt that there were several aiiftlos to the question which must be given consideration. This be thought could best be done by referring the matter to the finance com- .van, daily NB'tfa 'Wednesday, jn: 1 mil tee 1 6 confer with the delega-' lion ami be so moved. Aid. .1.

Private Sewars Aid. Brown fell that it was' unfortunate Unit Aid. Larson did not have the correct information at the time Ihe bylaw-was paed especially when Aid. Gaey had predicted at that lime that it would be an unpopular measure. He did no: see what could be done in the way nf repealing the bylaw as the money in be derived from il was now beinr figured upon In connection with the year's business. Aid. Hrowu further referred to the many private sewers in Ihe jjy thai had coslHh. people wbti'lluill them q grea' deal of money. It would not be fair to tax them for ninlitsoil collection as would be done f It were inefTy general taxation rather than by a private charge. Aid. Casey was opposed to the matter being left to the finance committee. It was up to tbe council he fell lo make a decision and il tniitlit.a well deal with Ihe question richt now. After nonie further discussion It was Redded that the f inane committee would deal with Hie question anil the delegation was invited to attend a meeting in the maypr office on Friday evening.
