In D91, a local reporter on the Piilly Astorian. At that time he was a fresh tendrfoot from the east, and hod accepted newspaper work only asa means of extending his acquaintance and keeping hlms?lf ordinarily busy, He showed himself to be a clever re porter, a close observer, and ready with an opinion of men and measures. Editor Halloran always kept a close eye on all matter written for The As torian, and John Barrett' copy was placed on the veteran editor' table for examination before being sent to the compositor. BarrJtt bad been in the employ of The Astorian but a few weeks when he wrote a local Item and polished It off with his opinion on the ubjeet matter. When Editor Halloran finished reading Mr. Barrettt' item he turned nul-rkly. to he present holder of the Japanese portfolio and ejaculated: "Mr. Barrett.

S. S. GORDON, Cashier. Holiday Great Eostern SHANAHAN BUILDING CHANGES I Si fISII LAWS WARDEN WOULD ABOLISH CLOSED HKA80X8, Think FMAng Hliould IU Pro hibited on MtreaftM Where Halmon Spawn. Perhaps one of the moat noteworthy recommendation contained In the an nual report of Fish Warden Van Dusen 1 that for the abolition of the spring and fall closed seasons. The recom mendation has occasioned much com ment, aa It embodies a departure which la sweeping In It effect. An Astorian representative called on Mr. Van Dus en yesterday and asked him hi reason for making the euggesllon. He said: "The spring closed season law pro hibits the taking of March and April fish In the Columbia and it tributaries. Those varieties of salmon, a every one knows, are quite ccurce, the sup plies being entirely inadequate for the canneries, although sufficient for the markets. The spring closed season merely ho the effict of curtailing the table supply of salmon while It does not increase the run appearing In the months of March and April, What we want are the May and June varieties, and the hatcheries have demonstrated their ability to take care of these sup plies. "My-repot t suggests that a weekly closed law would be m better than the spring closed sean law. We have a Sunday closing law on our statute books at the present time, but it is In operative, because Washington has no such law. It Is almost Impossible to enforce the Sunday law, and effort in that direction have been more or less unsuccessful. "My idea Is that we should try and do away with the closed laws, and In stead prohibit fishing operation on all salmon-spawning streams. Were this done the building up of the industry would not be lnterferred with, and hatdiery work could be carried on with satisfaction." i Mr. Van Dusen la hot on the trail of dynamiters, and if hi recommenda tions are put Into effect the peniten tiary will yawn for the men who resort to the use of explolvs for the purpose of killing salmon. Mr. - Van Dusen points out that maliciously Inclined persona can, with a 60-cent stick of giant powder, kill nearly all the sal mon held in the carrals at the hatch eries. "At Ontario this year we had 10.000 salmon In the carral at one time," he said yesterday, "and a person could have killed thtm all by throwing a atlek of clant powder Into the river. Dynamite does not always kill all the salmon thus held, but it renders barren the female salmon which have not spawned. I am anxious that the state board should offer a reward for the arrest of every dynamiter, and that (Continued ou Page Pour.) t?'ii"iiS!!iH!Ui;"iit";iii: A II n I li-i&i Here's a chance to square yourself with your best fellow or basbaod.
