Failure of hatchery work and of laws to Increase the salmon quantity has cre ated alarm on all sides. Among the nsn erv interests, the remedies sought are re striction or abolition of rival classes of arear. Outside of these interests, the remedies advised are lengthening of the closed season, prohibition of Sunday nun lug, regulation of all classes of gear and abolition of none. These are the recom mendations of the L'nited States Ftoh Commission. Although Oregon's new Warden has not yet announced his views on this matter, they are known to coin cide with those of the Government ex perts. intelligent application of theae remedies will afford the only possible aolutlon of the salmon problem. Of course, what ever Intelligence may be applied. It la realised that there are salmon foes which cannot be eliminated. These may be grouped under the single name, forces ot progress. These 1 forces are making for the development of the country in ways perhaps more Important and valuable than is the salmon Industry. They are Irrigation, manufactures, transportation, sewage. They are fast eliminating the natural conditions which for untold ages have made the Columbia River the home of the Chinook salmon and have devel oped that Ash to its perfection. - Conflict With New Conditions. Whatever remedies shall be adopted for protection of aalmon, they will con flict more or less with the progressive use of salmon waters for other purposes, and will have to yield to them. But the native conditions have not yet been so Impaired as to endanger the perpetuation of the salmon species. The Willamette River, though polluted at low stages, flows with a vast quantity of fresh water in Its floods, and leads the flsh up to the Clackamas River the best hatchery stream In Oregon. In streams that are uned to fill irrigation ditches, parent salmon can be barred out by dams and he compelled to spawn be low, so that their- progeny will not be swept out on crop ftelde to die by thou sands a common fate just now. The hatchery syetem is very Imperfect and needs remodeling all the way along the line. Undoubtedly It has saved the salmon from extinction, even In Its im perfection. But many changes for the better csn be made. They are recom mended by experts of the National Gov ernment and by Warden McAllister. Thus far most of the hatchery work haa been as a groping in the dark, even though It ras accomplished a good deal. Salmon habits re very mysterious. Even after years of study, experts know com pa ra il v-K- little about them. The latest hatchery plan is the installs tion of a central hatchery on the Colum bia River, to which will be carried the salmon egga taken at stations on the Mackenzie. Clackamas. Wallowa, Snake and Salmon Rivers. Salmon Variable In Habits. At present there is a state hatchery on each of those streams, each one being an expensive establishment. But it has been found thst salmon are extremely variable In their visits to the spawning streams. Water conditions are different from year to year, and a stream that thia year re ceives many fish, next year many receive but few. The United States hatcheriea on Btf White Salmon and IJttle White Salmon show the seme variability. I-ast year Big White Salmon "took 3.500, C" eggs, this year It haa taken t.60.0ua At the Mackenzie station, about l.OOO.OuO more eggs have been taken raw year than last. At Ontario there has been an Increase from tvo.oro to 3.S4.0i; at Sal mon River there has been a heavv de crease from S.6O0.W In pr, to K3.00O In 1. At Wallowa there has been an In crease from &O9.000 to l.STl'XO. At all the hatcheries Oregon. Washington and Uni ted States In Columbia waters there will probably be an Increase of from 3E.0OO, 010 last jrear to 40.000.0oo this year. Central Hatchery Is Favored. A central hatchery somewhere on the Columbia River, perhaps at the mouth of the peschutes. established by the State of Cirejcon. would receive egga from many stations on spawning streams. The On tario hatchery mill he abandoned. That ctwfiy plant was placed hy ex-Warden Van Dusen. and was expected to take an enormou quantity ot eags every year. But it has turned out a failure. It bai no arravlty water ayatem and haa to pump at bie; cort. Baaides. the water pumped from Snake River ia not fit for hatchery purposea, belna; heavily laden with silt. Then aaain, the wooden racks put arrow Snake River to hold the fish at the hatchery until apawnlng- time have to be renewed every year and anchored with baas of sand. As for the war between fish factions over rear, it will be Impossible for As toria ftillnetters to abolleh wheels.

"I have my own personal opinion of tho letter, but I do not wish to be quoted," pleaded practically every Democrat who was asked for an ex pression. Having- thus announced him self. It was not unusual for the man being Interrogated to make some very pointed remarks not altogether com plimentary to the author of the com munication. By the average Democrat the letter is regarded as uncalled for and for that reason Is resented while Its admonitions are Ignored. Non-Partisans Keep Silent. Governor Chamberlain, Mayor Lane and ex-District Attorney Manning three Democrats who have found from experience that non-partisanship is a convenient vehicle by which to . ride Into public office declined to make any comment on the letter whatever. "I have not read the letter." replied Governor Chamberlain when asked for an opinion and to whom the missive. It is said, was Intended to apply. "I have nothing to say," was the an swer of Mayor Lane. "It was . good letter," quoth Mr. Manning, who then gave a demonstra tion of a stubborn witness and would not discuss the subject further. The real effect of the letter, it Is very generally admitted by Democrats, will be to antagonize rather than to encour age harmonious conditions within the. party. Chairman 'i nomas, however, in submitting the letter refused to dis cuss what Its effect might be. neither would he admit that it was Intended to apply to any one Democrat In partic ular. Letter Speaks for Itself. "Tho letter speaks for itself," he said. "I propose that so long as I am chair man of the party organization In this county It shall be conducted as a Dem ocratic party according to the princi ples It represents. It shall continue to advocate and promote those policies for which the party stands. Men seeking office who are ashamed of the name Democrat and seek to hide behind the mask of non-partisanship need not ex pect the support of the Democratic or ganization In this county. If we are to have a non -partisan party let it be regularly organized under the primary law and maintain an organization. So far as I am concerned I do not propose further to encourage Democrats mas querading as non-partisans at the ex pense of the Democratic party. If the Democrats of Multnomah County do not approve of such a policy it Is their 0 C0 0 r Oil lXlaUU The conditions and causes which healthful vegetable remedy as the surest and safest cure.

Every Democrat who was questioned regarding the Thomas' letter insisted that he was Just as loyal a Democrat as the county chairman. Just as firm a believer in the principles of the party and Just as ardent a worker for the success of the party's nominees. Some took the position that while they be lieved the Democratic party should be conducted on strictly partisan lines in National elections, politics should not be allowed to -figure in state and muni cipal affairs, more particularly in the management of city affairs. Thinks It Tncalled For. "I do" not step aside for Chairman Thomas or for any other Democrat when It comes to . working- for the party, its .interests and the success of its nominees'- said one of the "don't-quote-me" Democrats, who was prom inently associated with tho campaign conducted by that party In Oregon pre ceding the recent Presidential election. "I do not approve of so-called non partisan' politics any more than does Chairman Thomas and I am sure I al ways have worked Just as faithfully as he to maintain a party organization In this county. For these reasons, L for one. resent the attempt of the county chairman, particularly at this time when there is no impending political campaign! to presume to call to account the Democrats of Multnomah County on an indictment charging them with an abandonment of party, name and prin ciples for non-partisan methods." Regardless of whether or not It was so intended. Democrats declare that Chairman Thomas in his letter strikes directly at Governor Chamberlain. Otherwise, they argue, the letter should not have been written at this time. "I am mentioning no names," re sponded Chairman Thomas when asked If the letter was intended as a slap at the Governor. In explanation of his action in issuing the letter at this time. Chairman Thomas said the real pur pose was to revive and strengthen the party organization In this county for more effective work In succeeding cam paigns. Democrats, however, insist that the letters reaches the Governor. Intentionally or otherwise. Some of the faithful contend that it was so de signed. Thfy recall that great disap pointment hovered about Democratic headquarters during the recent cam paign for several days following the announcement that Governor Chamber lain would not take the stump in Ore gon for Bryan. Therein, they main tain, lies the explanation for the ani mus which prompted Chairman Thomas to break into the letter-writing habit at this time. Fixes Blame for Failure. It is known to have been the great desire of Chairman Thomas to carry Multnomah County for Bryan. That he did not, it is said, has caused the county chairman to charge the failure to ChamberTatn, who. having posed as a non-partisan in asking the popular In dorsement for Senator, at the eleventh hour refused to come to the aid of the Democratic organization in this county. In the campaign last Spring with Chamberlain on the stump. Multnomah County gave the Governor a vote of 13.243, or nearly 4000 more votes than Bryan received in the county last Tuesday. It Is reported that Chairman Thomas has contended that had Chamberlain stumped the state for Bryan, the Demo cratic nominee for President In this county would have received even a larger vote than the Governor did last June. In that event, the. county chair man Is of the opinion that Bryan might possibly have carried the county. Next to the election of Bryan, that was the goal of Chairman Thomas. At any rate It Is known that Chairman Thomas firmly believes that with Chamberlain on the stump in the recent campaign the vote for Bryan, particularly In LMuitnomah County, would tiave been considerably larger. For - tnat reason the refusal of the Governor to come to the aid of the party is said to have left a sore spot with -.Chairman Thomas who has gone on record as favoring a strict partisan organization, represent ative of Democratic principles and whose support can only be depended on by Democrats free from the taint of non-partisanship.

I saw Vinol ad vertised and decided to try It, and it has done more good for me tkan all other means combined. It has built me up and restored my strength until I now feel twenty years younger, and am able to attend to my work again as usual." Job Jeavons, 1036 Llnd street. Wheeling, W. Va. The reason Vinol is so successful In such cases is because it contains tonle iron and all of the strengthening blood-making and body-building ele ments of cod liver oil, but no oil. Vinol Is unexcelled as a strength creator for old people, delicate children, weak, run-down persons, and after sickness and is the best known rem edy for coughs, coldB and bronchitis. We return your money If Vinol falls to give satisfaction. Woodard, Clarke & Co., Druggists, Portland. MY METHOD ALWAYS CURES WEAK MEN I)R TAY1-OR. The Leading Specialist.
