SHOULD BE 8UEJ FOR LIBEL The following Is not a:cnse of boycott. It Is merely the case of an Astoria stenmlHuit man who created a great uVnl f.f uniucessnry excitement for the space oT i.few brief moments.

QUIET IN POLICE CJRCLES-Con. sideling the large number of men the city with money In their" pockets, all of whom come to Astoria, to use a carmine color pfiirit as a fitting c'lma to a prosperous fishing season things are decidedly quiet In police circles. Ther have been very few arrests, and those hs velng been unfortunate enough to be gathered In got a good night's rest I nthe city; jail and paid only about tmlf what It would have cost them had they been allowed to remain on the out side. Yesterday Judge Anderson had on vagrant and one-' inebriate before him.

Engene Semple and Will H.Parr president of the Seattle city coundll, were in the city yesterday. They left for Seaside In the evening. Mr. Semple is father of the great Lake Washington waterway project, which 4ms for Its ob ject the uniting of Lake Washington and and the Sound by means of a ca nal that will admit of the largest ocean steamships passing through. In conver nation with a representative of the As torian Mr. Parry stated that the party would return to Astoria In a day or two when ho hoped to be in a position to Klve out for publication some news that would prove of general Interest to the community. "We have something on hand that Is of great Importance" he said, "but wt are not quite ready to state our mission to the public" A HOMESPUN HEART' WELL LIKED The Margarita.

SAVES HIS NET-Awakened by the barking of his dog on Tuesday night Jack Meyers of Red slough, near Clifton stepped to the door with his gun In time to prevent his net from being removed. His own boot was gone from its custo mary mooring place, but another was aUmg side of his net rack and the net was being pulled into it by a man who had presumably taken the precaution to remove Meyers' skiff so that, he could not be pursued. The midnight visitor's name was Peterson and Meyers ordered him to leave. He alleges that in the excitement the gun was accWently dis charged. With a cry thnt lie had been rhot. Peterson rowed away and came t this city to tell his trouples to Sheriff Mm llle. Learning of this Meyers also came to Astoria on the.Rame missions In the evening the men weretaken be fore Judge Goodman when It was agreed by them to settle the affair out of court The man is practically uninjured, a few spent bird shot taking effect in his breast. His identity la not clear but It is known Unit he 1s recently from Ore gon City. . SENATOR MYERS MAKES A PRE DICTION Senator George . T. , Myers of Portland, formerly a prominent Pu git sound oanneryman, was In the city vestorday with party of Jadies f tak ing In" the tanneries.' Mr. Myers found time to say a few words about the shortage in the. sound sockeye pack this season, and he ventured tht prediction that the pack will tall below 50 per cent of last season. He said"My experience on the sound with the sock eyes covers a period of many years, and I have seen several sea wins similar in all respects to this one. In 1878 there weie practically no sockeyes on the sound, and on Fraser river the pack was very light. The full run was also a total failure. I was operating in fall flsh then and I well remomber that we packed only 323 cases against lO.OOJJhe season before. We had prepared to pack 16,000 cases. In 1SS1 the Fraser rivor recorded a similar failure In sock f yes. My opinion at the opening of the present season was that the pack on the sound this year would average be tween 60 and 75 per cent of. last season, this in the fuse of the fact mat the can neries were prepared to , put up a much larger pack. The season Is so tar nsvsnced for the sound and Fraser river thit I am convinced that my first estimate was overdrawn, and I believe thst the pack this year will fall great ly below these figures. , It will be a phe somenal occurrence If there is a sock ey run of any consequence ttum now on this season. The worst feature of the run Is that humpbacks made their first appearance about two weeks ago. Usually they are not in the river until th latter part of the . sockeye run. The latter fish occupy about six weeks from the time of their appearance to their exit, My estimate of the fall run of sockeyes on Puget sound will be found to be about correct. A short pack will be a good thing for the market, which Is overdone with fl fish," LEFT TO THE VIEWERS The Lew Is and Clark road dispute, that seemed bound to develop Into a feud. . will resolve Itself Into the appointment of viewers with Instructions to lay out a public thoroughfare acceptable to all parties. This decision was reached yes terday by the county court when the petition of J. W. Relthand others and the petition of J. N. Heckard and oth ers were presented to that body. Mr, ReHth and his friends had their own Ideas as to. the road and petitioned the court to act upon said Ideas. They were represented by Judge J. Q. A. Bowlby. The other petitioners pointed out the importance of appolnflng-vjew-ers and settle the matter In the regu lation style. They were ably represent ed by Judge F. D. WInton, who address ed the court.
