Dear Sir:-

Your letter of the 27th ultimo, stating

that you enclose check for $4, covering one years

it.

The other part of your letter will have the

consideration of Mr. Edmonds.

We are now entering your subscription order to

begin last week--March 28th, which contains Mr. Haupt's

first article.

Very truly yours,

WHO'S WHO IN AMERICA

WHO'S WHO IN AMERICA is thoroughly revised, brought down,
and reissued biennially. It aims to give a brief, crisp, personal
sketch of every living man and woman in the United States whose
position or achievements have made his or her personality of gen-
eral interest, and tells just the things every intelligent person wants
to know about those who are most conspicuous in every worthy walk
of life,-including their present addresses.
The GEOGRAPHICAL INDEX to the new edition (1908-1909) will
add greatly to the value and usefulness of the book. It will
group by states and cities all the names in the volume, enabling
one to find instantly the names for any particular section or lo-
cality. It is believed that this new feature will be greatly appre-
ciated by the friends and users of this publication.
About 2,500 new names will be added in the new volume. As
usual, the names of those who have died, and names no longer deemed
important, will be dropped.
Every possible effort will be made, not only to maintain the
present high reputation of the work but also greatly to enhance it.
To this end suggestions for improvement will always be received with
appreciation,
The recommendation of really important names that may have
been overlooked in previous editions will be especially welcomed.
Criticism of names already in the book is also invited, and will be
held in the strictest confidence, it being as much the desire of the
editors to eliminate and exclude undeserving as it is to include de-
serving names.
Owing to the increased cost of production, due to the exten-
sive additions and improvements. the price of the 1o08-9 edition
of WHO'S WHO IN AMERICA will be advanced on the date of publi-
cation. The price, however, will remain the same as heretofore,
$3.50 per copy, to all who favor us with their orders in advance.
The completeness and reliability of WHo's \\'H IN AMERICA
make the book indispensable to, every man or woman who aims to
keep at all abreast of the times. It answers, instantly, thousands
of questions of every-day import.--question tfor thich answers can
nowhere else be found.
Address all orders and communications to the publishers,

Hon. -..poleon B. Brown'ard,

Dear Sir:-

We beg to call your attention to the printed request ac-
companying the personal sketch of yourself which is herewith sent
for revision, with a view to securing up-to-date completeness and
accuracy.
The book is being thoroughly revised. About 2500 new
names will be added and names no longer deemed important will be
dropped. Valuable improvements will be introduced, including a
Geographical Index, comprising probably more than 100 pages and
grouping by states and cities all the names in the book-- showing
at a glance "who's who" in any particular community.
The price will be advanced upon date of publication of
the new edition. This is made necessary on account of the increased
cost due to the extensive additions and improvements. However,
to all who send their orders in advance of publication the price
will remain as heretofore, $3.50 per copy.
You need Who's Who in America every day. Who's Who in
America needs you-- and y-ur support.
Please revise and return the sketch without delay, indi-
cating the number of copies of the new edition you will take on
publication. With sincere thanks for past courtesies and with
very best wishes we are,

Gentlemen:-

Vie received the originals which you sent us for enlarge-

ment. We should be pleased to make up these enlargements for you

but we are afraid that they will not be perfectly satisfactory made

from these originals. Is it not possible for you to obtain

the negatives that these contacts were made from? If so, we can

give you first class enlargements. Making enlargements of this

kind would hardly give you an idea of the class of work that we make.

Very truly yours,

The Sprague & Hathaway Co.

BUREAU OF FISHERIES
/aihlington


April 5, 1907.

His Ec-ellency,

The Governor,

Ta-llaha2see, Florida.

Sir:

I have the honor to inform you that the Bureau is in

receipt of a communication from Mr. John Y. Detwiler, honor-

ary fish commissioner of Florida, submitting copy of an

aieniicnt to Section 3776 General Statutes relative to the

protection of shad. This amendment contains a provision

under v*hich the Bureau can conduct fish-cultural work during

the close season of the shad.

The representatives in Congress from the state of Florida

have frequently expressed a desire for the establishment of

a hatchery for the propagation of shad in that state. This

year the Bureau has been conducting investigations on the St.

Johns River with the view of deterrAining as to the practica-

bility and advisability of taking up this work. Thus far

its investigations have not been very fruitful of results,

due to the fact that most of the shad appear to spawn after

the commencement of the closed season. Therefore, in order

to continue its investigations and bring them to a conclusion

without conflicting with state laws, it is essential that the

Bureau be permitted to employ fishermen to operate seiner


I I 'I I


I II













during a portion of April or until such time as the habits of

the shad in that region have 'become fully kno-n.

As a i1 p,.e percentage of the shad caught will undoubtedly

be killed it is necessary to :':.e some provision for their dis-

posal. The amendment i-,;i 'tted ;:.- Mr. Detwiler meets with

the a .,oval of this office. It is therefore hoped you will

give this matter favorable consideration and that ir, ,liate

action will be taken thereon. In the meantime the agents of

the Bureau now on the St. Johns River will suspend operations

until word has been received that this a:,;e,'e'.t or something

to the same effect has become a law.

Respect: f.lly,



Commissioner.

Hon. 7. Hunt Harris,

President of the Senate,

Tallahassee, Florida.

Sir:

I beg to transmit herewith copy of a communication from the De-

partment of Commerce and Labor, Bureau of Fisheries, Washington, and

to respectfully com.-iend to your consideration the views therein set

forth by the Commissioner. I understand thht there is a measure pend-

ing before ycur body in regard to this matter.

Respectfully submitted,

'.',SHINGT(.N


April 5, 1907.

His mExcellency,

The Governor,

Talltah-,assee, Florida.

Sir:

I hi-ve the honor to inLfoZr you that the Bureaiu is in receipt of a

communications from Mr. John Y. Letwiler, honorary fish comris-;ioner of

Florida, snbbmitting copy of an amendment to Section 3876 General Statutes

relative to the protection of shad. This imnondment contains a provision

under which the Bureau can conduct fish-cultural work during the close

season of t.he shad.

The representatives in CongresH from the state of Florida have

frequently expressed a desire for the establishment of a hatcloery for

the propagation of shad in that state. This year the Bureau has been

conducting investieCtions on the 1"t, Johns River with the view of de-

termining as to the practicability and advisability of taking up this

work. Thus far its investigations have not been very fruitful of re-

sults, due to the fact thit most of the shad a ipLar to spawn after the

commenceiment of the closed season. Therefore, in order to continue its

investigations and bring them to a conclusion without conflicting with

state laws, it is essential that the Bureau be lpe ritted to em:-loy

fishermen to operate seines during a portion of Arril or until such

time as the habits of the shad in that region have become fully known.

:As a large percentage of the shad caught will undoubtedly be

killed it is necessary to make sone prorvison for their disposal. The

amendment submitted by :'rr, Detwiler meets -.ith the a:,proval of this office.

It is therefore ho:r4d you will give this matter favor. Ue conalderttion

and that immedi;-te action will be taken thereon, in the meantime the

agents of the Bureau now on the St. Johns River will susp end operations

until word has been received that this niendiment or something to the same

effect has become a law.
Respect ._ 1 v,
