Meager reports from eoast streams
are to the effect that the run of salmon
Is very light except In Coquille river.
At other coast rivers there are prac
tically no fish and the pack Is only
about Ohe-thlrd of what was exDected.
Th4 C6nt!nud dry spell Is blamed for
th scarcity salmon, With the ad
vent of the rafny season the run will
jloubtless Improve, and cannsrymen are
hopeful that a fair pack may yet be
secured. The run on the Coaullle river
Is reported to be very good.
It Is understood that the O. R. k N.
Co. Is seriously contemplating the con
struction of a new steamer to ply be
tween Astoria "and Ilwaco. The Nah
ootto, at present on the run, is re
garded as too small to handle the traf
fic, and If rumor can be relied upon
the company will build a much larger
steamer. The Nahcotta has been a
serviceable boat under the efficient
management of Captain Tom Parker,
but she is hardly large enough to care
far the business. Whether or not the
company will build the new steamer
before the next summer rush could
not be learned yesterdaj

The. result of the Stanford-Mult'
noman game yesterday 0-0 Is the
source of gratification to local .foot
ball enthusiasts, who Insist that their
statements as to the strength of the
Commercial eleven were not ' over
drawn Stanford enjoyed the advan
tage o playing on Its own grounds, and
its failure to score against the Mult'
nomah' .eleven means that the Port
land bunch Is not as "soft" as some Qf
the Callfornlans supposed. Mult
nomah's victory over Comerctol is flg-
!
ured . out to mean that the Astoria
eleven is about as good amany ether
team oh the coast, and already it is
being planned locally to try next sea
son forjthe championship.
United States Senator Fulton has re
turned to the city, after a tour of sev
eral western states with Senator Fair
banks, republican candidate for vice
president Senator Fulton left the par
ly at Cheyenne, Wyo and came direct
ly home, He states that in all of the
states In which he spoke the prospects
were exceptionally bright for repub
lican success, and he seems confident
that President Roosevelt will be elect
ed by a large majority. At San Fran
cisco Senators Fairbanks and Fulton
spoke to, a crowd estimated at 15,000
people. It was the biggest crowd Sena
tor Fultoh had ever faced. The sena
tor's voice denotes the strenuous char
acter of his campaigning, but otherwise
he Is feeling Well. Senator Fulton will
not leave for Washington until late in
November. Congress will convene In
December' and the senator Is anxious
to remain here as long as possible. Re
will not come home during the holi
day recess. '
