OREGON MIST. 6CB8CRIPTIOH. 11.80 PER YEAR. BKKGLK DAVIS, Publishers. T. HELEKI, ORKUOH, NOW. 15. Tbkri U yet possibility that tbs Hawaiian islands will be annexed and become part of the United States. Tcebdat afternoon of last week in Pendleton was consummated a sale of 70,000 bushels of wheat, which was lored in the warehouse of the Fendle- ton Wool 8oourinff fc Packing; Cora peny. The lot waa owned mostly by W. M. Pierce and Henry F. Pierce, and brought 40 centr net. The an- aounoeinent of this aale to the Pacific Coast Elevator Company has given new life to other wheat producers, who feel encouraged to hope that they. too. will receive a good price for their crops. TBI attorney general of Oregon has rendered an official opinion upon the question as to whether or not the costs incurred by the prosecution of offenders strain si the late came taw should be borne by the county or state, construing the language i "One half of all the money paid into the county treasury over and above the amount necessary to reimburse the county for any expense paid out ot the treasury," etc. The opinion cites section 236X, HiU's code, which pro- Tides that costs and disbursements in criminal actions are paid by the county in which the action is brought, and holds that section 38, of the game law clearly recognizes the same rule tor the protection of game, fish and wild fowl, and to provide for the appoint ment of fish and gama warden, and that the repealing clause does not in clude section 2361, and therefore, con- elades that costs must be paid by the county in which the action was insti tuted, and not by the state i be at torney general has advised Fish Com missioner McGuire that, nntil an nulled by some tribunal having juris diction, sectioa IS of the new law is in force. This will materially effect cold-storage firms, aa that section makes it unlawful to have in posses sion, dead or live birds, nub or fowls, oat of season. THsfaot that a specie of salmon, known by persons familiar wbith the scaly tribe aa dog salmon, are actually being canned and shipped to the markets of the East for food is a great surprise to many people. Buch is tbe ease, however, may it be said to the injury of the salmon industry on the Columbia river. Thes fish are not considered good for food by people who are familiar with them, and never before have they been utilised only for the oiL That the packing and placing on the market ot these fish will greatly cripple the salmon indus try will not be disputed. It is true a few people find employment in catch ing and canning these fish, and it is also true that the establishment which cans them makes an enormous profit owing to the low price (a cents each) which is paid for the fish. This will not last long, however, for tbe quality of tbe goods will soon be discovered and an end may be put to the busi ness. But how about the reputation of- the genuine Chinook salmon, of Which the Columbia river fisheries have so long boasted? There is where the injury will coma in. Eastern people who have heretofore consumed great quantities of canned salmon will look elsewhere for that article of food, and as a result the Columbia river produot will be a drug on the market, eo to "speak, and the natural con se quence will be a reduction in the price of our goods to make them saleable and a corresponding reduction in the price paid fishermen for the raw ma terial. Therefore those who will be the greatest losers in tbe end are the persons who catch the fish. .. SUCTION SUMMARY. . The solid Booth has dropped ont of politics. last week's republican vic tories in Kentucky and Maryland are decisive on this point. The republi can majorities in Missouri, Maryland and West Virginia last year, and the practically tie vote between the parties in Kentucky at that time, was ascribed to democratic apathy. But the re publican majority just rolled up in Kentucky and Maryland can not and will not be attributed to any such con dition. The size of the vote last week in both these states is fatal to any presumption of this sort. All the democrats are said to have gone to the polls, but thousands of tbem voted tbe republican ticket, and will continue to vote it so long as tbe republican party is true to its ideals. It will be alleged, of sourse, by the democrats that their reverse in Ken tucky and Maryland waa due to fac tional feuds in their psrty, and in some degree this explanation is valid. Tbe split on silver in the former state and the fight against Gorman in the latter turned many votes over to tbe republicans. But these causes were merely contributory. They simply assisted in turning the scale. The re publican majority in neither state would have been so large without them, but there would have been a majority of some eUe or other. There wss no split in Kentucky on the silver question or anything else in 1894, nor was Gorman or Gormanism an issue in tbe Maryland canvass. Last week's break in the democratic line in the Bonth shows that the causes are deeper than is popularly supposed, and have been longer in operation. That is to say, geographical parties and geographical politics hsve reached their end. It will be no longer possi ble to determine a state's partisan complexion by its latitude. Mason and Dixon's line has been abolished, flutes on both aides of it will hereafter divide freely on tbe questions of tbe time, irrespective altogether of their altitude toward dead and gone issues. The country has emancipated itself from its bondage to the ante-bellum era. Texas annexation, the Wilmot proviso, tbe Kansas-Nebraska law and secession have at last lost their power to sway the people in either South or Jfortb. A great era in the nation's political history has apparently been closed for all time, COURT PROCEEDINGS.
