HIGHEST WATER ON RECORD
All Past Records Have Been Broken
In Callfurnin. Crops Ruined and
Thousands of Acres of
Farm Lands Inundated.
SACRAMENTO, March 25. With
protlcally all of the down-river Isl
ands under water, the. worst flood in
the history of this rich .agricultural
district, not excepting even those of
1K"2 and 1904. Is now a matter of rec
ord. On the Sacramento side of the
river. Grand'. Sutler and Sherman
Islands are the only ones not inun
dated, and on the Yolo side. Merritt
stands as the single rock which has
withstood the ravages of the waters.
Even the Pearson district, where
the hardest fight ever made by the
rivpr ranchers to save their lands has
been going on for a week, is now sub
merged, and while at Randall Island
the front levee was still standing at
last reports, the struggle has been
given up. -
While from all points comes the
word that "the worst Is over." a vivid
picture can be drawn of the awful de
struction which has ruined crops and
put land worth millions of dollars tem
porarily out of commission.
The steamer Fruto has been sent on
a second mission of relief and she is
momentarily expected to return with
: cargo of the stock rescued from the
Pearson district. The Pearson district
is one of the chief dairying parts of
the county, and although the residents
are rmiking a desperate fight to pro
tect their horses and cattle until help
arrives. It is probable that many hun
dreds will be iost.
The water was reported to he four
feet deep and rising rapidly. The
. break is widening and It is feared
that there may be destruction of hu
man life before the flood subsides.-

MIST IIAVB PATIENCE.

Gives Oregon Inside Advice.

communication received by Covernor
Chamberlain today from the Manufac
turers' Association of Seattle. Wash.,
furnishing certain data for the use of
the Railroad Commission of Oregon, has
the following to say with reference to
Railroad Commission:
"In regard to a Railroad Commission,
your people should not expert too much
at the start. The transportation question
has not and cannot be learned in a few
days: it requires a long time to even
learn the A K Cs of the proposition. If
your Commission should jilnp into a case
without definite knowledge of the same,
its mistaken judgment would result in
a clamor for its removal. The railroads
will watch every mova and take advan
tage of every error.. 'Our Slate Commis
sion was considered a joke, two years
ago, but the work accomplished within
the past six months has amply repaid the
state and the members have, accumulated
such a vast amouni of information that
the Commission will be- of incalculable
value in the future. Your state can af
ford to pay good salaries to good men;
cheap men are a drug and susceptible
to Influence. It will take. oir Commis
Mlou at least two years to familiarize

They Will Strike.
' SEATTLE. March 25. (Special.) Satis
fied to grant their engineers a. 10 per cent
wage fcalse. but bitterly opposing the 25
per eent'xiemanded. and with prospects of
a -tie-up in consequence, steamship-owners
are facirife. a serious state' of affairs
for the coming season with the announce
ment of the Pacific Coast" Company today
that steam coal would be advanced 50
cents a ton April 1. . The price .has been
$3.50 for several years.- The raise is ex
plained by the fact of scarcity of labor
limiting the output at the mines. Su
perintendent Huston, of the Pacific Coast
Company, declares his inability to meet
the demand and hence .the necessity of an
increase in price. Several of the steam
ship owners are thinking seriously of
sending their boats to British Columbia
to obtain coal. There is also a movement
afoot to send several large barges north
for coal to be distributed among the ves
sels proportionately.

there is much more danger of pneumonia.

eral Government . Will Aid
Work of the Inspectors.
SALEM. Or . March 25. (Special.) One
of the important developments at the
meeting of the Board of Slteep Commis
sioners held at Pendleton last Saturday

spreading of the disease scab among the
sheep, which is infectious. The Boanl

who will begin the work at once of in
specting the sheep throughout the state,
and a stringent system will be adopted
to eliminate the disease from the sheep.

serting that the recent communication
sent President Roosevelt by the Seattle
Chamber of Commerce, protesting against

tion was tk,en flt a meeting yesterday,
