SALMON PROPAGATION.
Rosse River a Favorable Stream
"Worli on tne Claeknmas.
OREGON CITY, Or., June 19. J. W.
Berriam, superintendent of the Govern
ment hatchery on Rogue River ,1s here
with, his family, waiting for detailed in
structions from tho department In refer
ence to beginning work for tho present
season. He expects now that he will re
ceive tho necessary instructions within
two weeks, but regrets that he has not
been ordered to begin work sooner, ex
pressing tho opinion that it would have
made a material difference in the output
for the season. Mr. Berriam considers
Rogue River the best salmon stream in
Oregon, and he was very successful in
Securing both chinook and steelhead iggB
and in hatching them. Today he received
a letter from the superintendent of the
Lake Nebagonsau hatchery, Minnesota,
stating that out of the 50,000 j-oung salmon
received, from the Rogue River hatchery
only 20 had died when the ehlpment ar
rived. The young salmon were shipped
from Medford on May 13, each ca- being
packed in ice.
Last night Frank Brown accompanied
Fish Commissioner Reed on a trip to Coos
County to assist in locating a hatchery
on one of the streams in that section. J.
A. Talbert, of CJackamas Station, is at
work putting In raqk at the -te recently
located on the North Umpqua River, in
Douglas County.
J. W. GTay., secretary of the Willamette
Valley Chautauqua, states that the pro
gramme Is almost completed for Patri
otic day at Gladstone Park, on July IS.

Marlon County Companies.
SALEM. June 19. General Beebe. Major
Greenleaf and Adjutant-General Ganten
beln were In Salem today looking over the
proposed sites for the National Guard
encampment to be held July 7 to 15. They
have decided upon the Highland common,
whieh, they say, is entirely satisfactory
as a place for holding tho encampment.
Tftey express themselves as well pleased
with the arrangements the. people of Sa
lem have made to aid the encampment.
The location for the coming encampment
was decided on today. This field is" 1450
feet Ions and 450 feet wtde, and is about a
quarter of a rsile weat of the State Fair
grounds. A small grove is in one corner,
where the Infantry camps will be pitched.
It has excellent water accommodations
and an excellent parade ground.
All Interest la local military circles cen

members of Company F, Fourth Regi

ing familiar with the maneuvers of th
company, battalion and regiment. The

the Salens company to participate in a
one day's encampmenE at Brooks. The
invitation was accepted, and the com

evening. Unforeseen contingencies pre
vented, and the companies have set next

State Hns Farms to SelL
The report comes- from the office of
the Clerk of the State Land Board that
sales of farms owned by the state are
rapidly Increasing, and that there Is an
unueual amount of inquiry for farm land.
Most of the inquirers are residents of
the Mdddle States, those residing In Min
nesota, Wisconsin and Nebraska being
most numerous.
The state now owno about 200 farms
that have been secured through the fore
closure of mortgages. These Include both
grain lands and stock ranches, and are
as a rule above the average In desirabil
ity. They are in various parts of ttirs
state, so that the Land Board is a&le to
supply the wants of nearly all comers.
The management of these farms has be
come a Important pari of the official
business of the State Land Board, and
Is daily becoming more Important. Until
recently, the department has kept no com
plete record of tho farms under Ite con
trol, and it has been impossible for the
clerks to determine on short notice the
cost to tho stato of each tract of land.
Recently, D. F. Hardman, one of the
clerks, has devised a system of keeping
the records eo that he can Instantly turn
to a complete record of any farm and tell
an Inquirer exactly what It can be bought
for. He has opened a ledger account
with each farm, and knows exactly how
much tho state has spent on account of
the original loan, attorney's fees, court
costs, repairs, etc., and how much the
state has received for rent. etc'. In
stead of delay in quoting prlce'-, to a
would-be purchaser, the department Is
ready to offer a rale when the purchaser
is In the mood to Tuy. The department 1
requiring greater promptitude and exact
ness on the part of its attorneys in mak
ing reports, so that no items of expenee
willbe lost sight of.
Numerous Caies of Diphtheria.
A young child of Mr. and Mrs. William

George, of North Salem. d.ed of the same
disease this morning, after a very brief
niness. -rne rather is at Cape Nome.
Yesterday physicians at the Insane asy
lum discovered that five girls have Tseen
sick with the same dread malady, and
tMs morning one of them. Anna Ertz. age
8 years passed away. Two more ace dan
gerously 111. while it Is thought the other
two wlH recover. All these girls were in
the same ward, but the c-tfher Inmates
were grown people, and it is thought they
will not take the disease. The grpat dan
ger is that the contagion will spread to
other wards where children are confined.

"The brave and heroic young man to
whose memory this tablet Is dedicated has
performed the noblest and subllmest act
It Is given humanity .to record. He has
given his life for his country. His was not
a life worn out with dissipation, broken
down in health, his cup of happiness
drained to the dregs, and nothing left
worth living for. Hts was a life at the
beginning, unspent, with everything to
achieve, everything to hope, and every
thing to accomplish. But before the prime
of manhood had been reached his life
work had been done, and well done."

JAPANESE RULED, OUT I
CONDITIONS SUCH AS TO DISCOUR
AGE -IMMIGRATION.
Un
profitable to Ha.ve to Feed and
Carry Back the Rejected.
TACOMA. Wash.. June 19. The soeclal
board of inspection appointed tp examine
tne Japanese emigrants entering at tnts
port has completed Its labors, and has re
jected 6. These, with 31 of the Japanese
who came over on the Glenogle and the
Breeonshlre, will be deported on the next
steamer leaving port. '
It is expected that the strict and. to the
steamship company, costly, examination!
of ail immigrants will go Tar toward
checking the tide cf undesirable Japan
ese Immigration. Since the special agent
announced that If the steamship company
did not feed the Immigrants pending their
examination, he wouM take them to a
retaurant and charge their bills to the
company, ..the steamship companies realize
that "they are doing business at a loss.
The contracts mado with agents In Japan
w.ero at a low rate in consideration, that
the agents would feed the passengers.
When, however, the steamship companies
found that they were compelled, to feed
them on this side three days to a month
tho profits quickly disappeared, and on
top of this heavy charge, they will have
to transport all the rejected ones back
to Japan at their own expense.
One of the officers of the steamship
Duke of Fife says that the fact of so
many men being rejected quickly spread
through Japan; also the fact that there
were no tasy positions to be had In this
country. He says he looks for very little
immigration from now on. The critical
condition of affairs In China. Is causing
the Japanese officials to discourage the
emigration, as they look forward to need
ing all the men they have, in the near
future. v
