FORTLAND,
ELK CHEEK HATCUESY.
Increasing the Supply of Salmon in
Iiofiie lilver.
The Ashland ' ' cord contains the fol
lowing aecom I t the hatchey in charge
of Supeiintenoi nt J. W. Berrbtm. He
is a Clackamas comity man, and it will
be -interesting to the people here to
know how they are doing things there :
'Work preparatory to handling the
eggs at the Elk creek hatchery on
Kogue river is in progress for the largest
seasons' run yet performed and the
summer tourists all give Sopt. J. W.
Berriam a call ou their rounds. Mr.
Berriam is increasing the trough capacity
dt anout one-natr. me location is ideal
lor the work. The place in. which the
salmon are held captive is a natur.d
spawning ground, ttie distance between
the upper and lower-rocks being. abou
1700 feet. The fish come up over th
lower rack but cannot pass the upper,
which is an open dam of flats extending
completely across the river. Orce within
these bounds the great fish cannot re
turn do n stream nor proceed onward.
Walking out on the upper rack the
water is seen to be alive with large sal
mon and they turn and flash their sidci
in the light in their hurry to get away,
but soon return. "It is not every rack
that you can walk out on and see the fit ii
like that" said the enthusiastic superin
tendent with just pride. The salmon
were enjoying themselves and the big
fellows were continually jumping.
The manner of taking the lish in order
to procure the eggs is as follows : At the
lower end of the area in which the fish
are penned the rack narrows down to an
Indian trap. A seine is carried out
acrosB the river and drifted down with a
boat, forcing great numbers of the salmon
into the triip. From this they are care
fully tiken and the "green" ones cast
back to the pen; By "green" is meant
those that are not yet icady to spawn.
The ones which are to be used a:e
placed in racks, each one by itself and
carried alive in wagons to the h itch y
building. Here the eggs are t:i' eu
from the females and put into the ha.,
ery baskets, in the troughs and impli
cated by the fluid fiom the male fish.
Through these baskets of eggs in the
troughs a Btream of fresh water from
Kogue river, at its natural temperature,
ii flowed, during the entire time re
quired for hatching which will average
about 50 d: ys.
The fish that have been used are then
killed and canned, a small cann'ng plant
being a part of the hatchery's equip
ment. They are alterwaads ground up
and used as food for the little fish before
they are turned into the river. People
unacquainted with the salmon industry
might question this killing f the old
fish, but it is just as well, for they soon
die after spawning, none of them ever
returning to the salt water, and it makes
the work of the hatchery easier by hav
ing them removed where they will not
sgain be taken in the trap The little
fish are kept and cared for about three
months alter hatching at the end of
which time they are about three inches
in length. Mr. Berriam expects to turn
out about 5,01)0,0(10 little fish this vear.
These legions of little fellows find their
way to the ccean, grow and thrive and
in from the third to their fifth year of
exis'eua return up Itogre liver and
form a link in the chain which perpetr
ates the exi-tenceof the species.
Few people understand the work of
the hatchery correctly. It is a benefi
cent effort on the part of the U S.
government, not the state, to increase
the supply of food fishes in llogue river
and many who enjoy the rich and the
sport of taking them are unjust in oppo
sition or lack of interest in the matter.
Ten miles np Elk creek from the
mon hatchery is a eteelhead hatchery.
This splendid fish spawns in the eprfhg,
and the manner of handling is much the
same as for tiie royal Chinook.

Buffalo. N. Y., Sept. 6 Piesident
Mc.K nley was shot here ib.s afternoon
a I'i'le alter 4 o'clock, while holding a
reception at the Temp'e ol Music on the
Pan-Amer'i an grounds, by Leon Czol
goBz, au anarchist. He was well dressed,
and was in the act of shaking bauds
with the president when he committed
the deed. He had covered i he revolver
with a handkerchief. Two shots were
fired, one ludging in the pr. -ideut's leit
breast and one in the abdu . eu, Czul

Sept 7 The p.es'dent's wounds are
not necessary fatal, and recovery is
possible, unless untoward complications
occur.
Sept. 8 All the heads of the depart
ments of government and Vice-President
Kcosevelt have arrived at Buffalo. The
president's condition isnios serious. The
The governments of Europe and South
America have sent telegrams to the
department depressing the warmest
sympathy with t'e president and the
United States.
Sept. 9 The most confident predic
t'ou is made cf the president's recov
ery. If within the next. 24 hours there
is'no change for the worse, the physi
cians attending him will declare him out
of danger. In that event, three weeks
hence he would be completely re
covered. John Recjioiid, the Irish lesder, ca
bled to Vice-President Koosevelt from
London today an fol'ows: "In the name
of the Nationalist party I send an ex
pression of deepest sympathy. Ireland
abhors the dastardly crime."
Anna Uoldtuan, the arch anarch'Bt,who
was in Buffalo on Monday, the 2nd, has
d'sappeared. The police are searching
for her. She is believed to be morally
responsible for the attack on the presi
dent. Czolgosn poeeB as a hero, having
no conception ol the dastardiiuess of his
crime.
The hu'ltt of the assassin is yet in
the president's body and peritonitis is
.eared. An X ray machine is ready for
iiista it use in taee the danger becomes
imminent.
Sept. 10 Emma Goldman was ar
rested in Chicago, where a dozen other
male and female anarchists were cap-
turee. two months ago, the Chicago
' Reds" were plotting to ussassinate
McKinley.
The physic! ins in attendance on the
pre-dde.it are reasonably confident that
be will recover, but the bullet of the
wouhVje assasr'n he will carry with
him to the grave.
In Europe no less than in Ameiica
prayers have been wa'ted on the wings
of the spirit to the throne of the Most
High imploring that full recovery may
be vouchsafed to the chief executive of
the United States
As soon as Mr. McKinley can endure

quarters at Millbiirn House to either
Canton or Washington.
The pope has been so deeply moved by
the a i tuck on McKinley that he will is
