THE ·HARBOR GRACE

The Be~ Piaherv and the .Bait Act Pune-Se~ IuluriOUJ. Deer very Plentiful. Wutetul Practice.

Harbor Briton, MArch 18, 1898. With the first break in the' atormy

weather I started from this for the Head of t.he Bay. A smart and favourable breese took me from tbis to Hay L' Ar­eent in little more than five hours, there I apent a few dAya and then madQ the tour of the North side of the Bay na f.'\r 1\8 Belleoram. The herring fishery may be said to be at an end now. There we:e only two ornfta in the Bay, and these were almoetloaded. The thoughte of meet were ·tumin~ towards the her­ring trade with St. Pjene. but it was too e~nly in the eeaaon for anything to be dnne therewith. Many were the en­f}Uirica made about tho movements of t\ll! "Fiona," nod whilst there was " certain dread hangin~~; overtbe beads of all lest they should be unfortunate enough\o run a~Rinat bex-:Jhe J;renerl\1 expression of opinion was that' there'll he no me in going to St. Pierre if abe does not come, for we'll get nothing for our herrinJt.' Tho b11.lf lieartPd way in which the Bl\it Act ht\1! been enforced hM rendered it worse thl\n useless. for· it bas simply led the people to think that the Go,·ernment doe~ not very much care whether they take bait to.St Pierre or not. Mv own irnoression is that it would t..ike not lea's tbl\n five ~ncb etcn m Prs ns the "Fiona," with t rcbM the stl\ff of Cust.om's officers along the coast, t-o stop the herring smuggling. When the people take to carrying out. b11it in their punta. every fishing bont needs to be watched. Moreover, our people are so accustomed to run to St . Pierro thjt io· the dense fogs we so fre­quently 1tn ve here; they w9uld run out under the. very bow of the " Fiona," or be off when she daro not venture out of harbor. Then again our Yankee cousins are Yery kind to our neighbors and the dollars which some of our peot•le make by getting them to carry.out herring on the halves, are some t1mes reckoned not by hundreds but by thouaands for 1\ season. I don't say that the French get all the bait they want, nor yet al­ways just when they want it ; but they certainly get n fair share, and at times refute to ouy at any price.

In a previous epistle I referred t.o the "pursing" ofherring, by which mea'na this fish we.a for the moat part taken during the present ao.ll!on. Even the Yankees the~ruelves declare this to be likely to prove mO&t injurious to the fishery t\nd such a modo of cap\ure a would not be permitted by any other country. It frightens the herring, and prevent. their coming to the shore (so 1t ia sa id.) Aa with t.be lo&ater fiaberx, ao probably with the herring-eteps Will be taken to preserve it when too late. • No sooner was the herring fls~ery

over than the people betook themselves to the country in search of deer, which lUI you are f\wnre have been very plen­ti fulalon~ the coast this season. In 1\ll I 'd say that not less than 2500 have been slaughtered. This in itself would be bnd enough, but when one hears of hnodreda being left in the country to rot, merely because those who shot them nfterwards m et with others nenrer home, it. is pure and 11imply shamefuL H enrsf\y e'•idence is not recognized, I b6Jie,·e, in Law, nor is it nlways to be rrlicd unon, yet where there's awoke there's ~enemlly fire, 1md so when one h ears of a pile of 300 deer left to rot in the country, one ia inclined to think thllt, not only mutt sr.mc have been left there, but that the law regult\ting the killing of deer cannot have been very strictly observed. 20, 60, and aa 1111\QY na 90 hawe been the numbers quoted as falling before one gun to one rnnn'a share. There's something radi­cally wrong if thia be the oaae.

SOliE APT REFLEOTIOSS.-We take pleuure to-day in laying before our readers apother of the valuable letters of our well-informed Fortune Bay correapondent. His remarks in regaa

Unleu thia ·soon be lfooe, tbe days of the noble etag are numbered-the Newfoundland caribou becomea a creature of the paat. Let ua quote here the pertinent remarka m.~de reapectiog this baneful procedure, ns well in regard to the equally aiofu l wute of herring now lately eeen in Fo"une Bay : '1 With hundred• of deer rotting in the country {l~e say a. hundred or two), and hundreds of

It will be a wonder if there is uot ao outbre1~k of diph­t.heria or other -maligo&nt disease in aome parta of the Bay when the wnrm weather comes, aa a. result of the pol-­lution of the wells in some mnces, coo­sequent "upon the aprooding~f t erdug on t.ho ground Wlfrcezo, and l t~a\'ing toem there to rot, At Liule Harbor, near Lit.tlo .Bay, i£ wns tho ~enoral cry ' ' we can'~ use the wut.cr, 1t taat1.'1 ao bad." .Herring Jay about the bencbee and land in all dtrections when I wu there; and )'OUr correapondeo~ wae ~ur­ed that they'd be '1 aJmoet knee deep on the ttrand when tb6 anow and' ice melted.''

All doubts aa to the fate of the schr. Maggio Mac seem to be cleared away by the story brought down by tho seal­ing schooner Pioneer. It will be re­membered that something O\'er n. year a~o the CoLO~IST pubhshed an account ot a wreck which h11d · occurred near Cape Scott. A rcprcscntati \ 'O of tho CoJ.O!>IST wns dispatched to nscert~in the pn.rticulars of the wreck, but ow1ng to the rous;:hne8s of the coost anrl tho stormy weather he was una.blc to reach the acwe of the disMter. Frcm the de­scription of the frllgmcnts olltnincd by him from t1lo Indiana it \Vas then sup­posed that the ill-fat~d YC!sel wns the . schooner H enry Dennis. The Qnadra. mndc n trip to the same locality a little Inter, but in·some wn.y missed the wreck, and ao the matter rcmnin.ed, . until the story told by Capt. McLeod, of the P ioneer.

The tnlo of the lbeation of the wreck wns told to the captain by the two men who nrc runnin~ a store on Quntsino Sound. · According to them, tho I ndians reported n wreck lying in one of the many small bRys south of Cnpc Scott. A s they nrc often compelled to go across to Fort Rupert for s\lpplit>s, they resolved on one . of thctio trips to look the matter up, and nfLer som!l difilcult.y located ~he wre-ckage. On the bench wns found a mass of debris, consisting­of a aide of the schooner, the house, fragments of the boat~, boxes, barrels, pordagc, etc, 'l'ho vessel must, in their opinion, bne gone down somewhere nrnong the group of small islands be­tween Cape :::lcottand 'l'riaoglehland.

'l'he crew were undoubtedly loet. with the vessel, u from the nature of the surroundings the Indians cluim thnt in case of a storm of t\ny magnitude no boat or being could live for nny length of time in the an_gry breakcn , or by any possibility make a landing.

The Pioneer hn~ bad rather a hard time of it, nod durfng a.n entire month out of port the '•ind was so high and the sen so rough thnt the lowcrmg of a boat would have been impossible. About a month ago, \vnilo lying at anchor in St. George's Bay, the anchor chnin of tho Pioneer snapped and the s~;hv0ner was driven out to sea. Capt. ltf'&~od resolved to make an nttempt to re urn to Victoria, but owing to heavy hone winds tho progress Wl\8 very slow. Lost Saturday morning, off Clipc Fla~ tery, Edward Cnhill,'one.of the seamen, went out on tho jib boom t.o make fe.at the jib. An unmul\ll)' heavy scaawung the boom suddenly, and washed him 1\wny. With great difficulty tho scbr. was b rought to, nnd a boat lowered in th~ l'i\ging sen. .

Though the wind hnd ke~t the body afloat h.Y inflating the oilskln& worn by -tho unfortunate sailor, he wna dead when tho boat reached him. The ontirG boat1s ~crow almost desp!\ired of life before th~ schooner was agrun reached. The•body wl\s brought in to Victoria.

No schooners were lighted during the ' 'OY•' ge, but Capt. McLeod thinks that the catop mUIIt be ' 'ery small, owing to the rough weatber, 'l'be seala aecmed t.o be very scarce along thft ahorea of Yancouver leland 110 fao: ua he could aee, though the weathcc \V&a too rough to lower a boat.-" Victoria B.
