To the Portland Oregonlan he said: "If I were In absolute control of the salmon industry on the Pacific coast and In Alaska, I would do two things: I would remove all the traps and fish wheels from the Columbia fiver and from otl.er rivers, and I would establish a much greater num ber of natchone than now exist. Hatcheries are the key to fhe situa tion," PREPARE FOR S A RDI N Eg The Hemlaw Hrd!n Packing Company ho on band sample cans to be used In the business to be started up nxt month.

A combine of the steamers Is proposed to bvlate this unequal con dition of things, but vhether the deal can be brought to a successful Issue Is not yet apparent. A number of the prominent rlvsr men are Interested In the proposition find others are very much alive to its Importance, so its more earnest advocates are confident their ideas will prevail.

T. Ilnrry of Portland, organlisr of the American Federation of Labor, on th relation of the employer and employe to each other. Mr. Harry faced the larg est audience ever gathered In Astoria at a labor meeting, and he was ac corded undivided attention for nearly an hour.

C. grounds between the Astoria Selects and the North Pacific brewery team was not such aa to arouse more than ordinary interest In the sport, both teams playing very ordinary ball. the Selects winning by a score of 18 to 4 for the brewery boys. The teams have been matched to play again In the future for $50 a side and the money has been posted. The' brewery team is granted the privilege of recruiting three new players for the return game. Homer Fletcher, th brewery shortstop sustained ugly Injuries to his right hand in the game yesterday. Some of the Individual playa were good and re deemed the game from painful medi ocrity. Ross pitched a fast game against the Selects, and would have made abetter showing than 15 hits off him had his support been better. Stockton made a spectacular catch in left field, andtwo double plays, one when the ball was bptted to O'Toole at shortstop, and was fielded to Graham at second, putting a man out, and then returned to Flanagan at first with sim ilar' results-was particularly brilliant.' Charley Halderman picked up a fly, which he threw to Graham at second, retiring a man, and the fans howled with delight. About 200 people were present. The Indies of Pacific Loflge, No. 58, Degree of Honor, held an enthusiastic meeting last night at which Mrs. A. R. Cyrus read an interesting report on the work of the recent grand lodge at Portland.
