It was tried Tuesday and yesterday and a decision acquitting Dahlberg was given this morning. T. W. Jlrowij appeared for the defendant. most productive. Many United States fish culturlsts insist thai their propagation methods in the Columbia and in Alaska have been far more productive than those folowed by Canada in the Fraser and other streams. That the best method may be determined, the present treaty, like those of 1DQ8 and 1920, provides that the commission shall conduct propagation and share equally in the expense. The restoration of the sockeye fishery of the Fraser is a big undertaking and one that will call for the expenditure on propagation of large sums annually. It calls for almost all the expenditures under the treaty. It is just and right that the two governments should share the expense. Article III. pf .the treaty provides that: Powers of Commission Article IV. of the treaty empowers the commission "between the first day of June and the twentieth day of August in any year, for the whole or any part of that period, t limit or prohibit the taking of sockeye salmon in respect of all the . waters described In Article I. of this convention, m j , VICTOR RADIO ElECTROtA KK5 $375 Ctmfltlt lent Utti VICTOR RADIO COMSOLE R 32 $255 Ctmfltlt wilt iMtti sis THE .DAILY NEWS Thursday, Aumitf "25 MTI.ft I'Ammkdtnn aholl olor hgva . . 1. xl. a 1.. 1 J A.
