At the soUcltation and request of F. A. Seufert of The Dalles, a letter written by him to published In this is sue. The Astorian has never abused Mr. Seufert. It has simply published facts, and even his most intimate friends have been unable to see where in he has been treated unfairly. In Ms letter he devotes considerable time and spaco to H. G. Van Dusen that Is referred to in Holy Writ and the ad monition of "Thou Shalt Love Thj Neighbor as Thyself.! The entire let ter is simply a statement of the oppo sition of Mr. Seufert ' to Mr. Van Dusen. but gives no reason for this opposition. The fact that Mr. Seufert is opposed to Van Dusen, is the best argument for his" retention as master fish warden. Peoole who are familiar with the fishing Industry are unable to see how Mr. Van' Dusen can do Justice to the fishing Industry and be " under the dictation of Mr. Seufert It la the duty of the master fish warden to prepare and submit an annual report to the legislative assembly. It is his duty to make such suggestions as in his judgment will be of benefit to the In dustry, Irrespective of the opinions of any man from Eastern. Oregon or any other section of the state. The recom mendations made by Mr. Van Dusen In his annual report were embodied In a bill Introduced in the legislature and which were formulated in a bill by a Joint conference between a com mittee of the Oregon legislature and the Washington legislature which met In Olympla this month. Mr. Seufert was opposed to that bill simply be cause it was not In the interest and for the direct benefit of Mr. Seufert The legislative assemblies of Oregon and Washington have never been able to pass a bill during the past 15 years that was approved by Mr. Seufert simply because the laws enacted were for the benefit of the entire industry and. not in the interest of one man. There are several men in the state 4 of Oregon,' and not a few of them re side on the lower Columbia and In Washington, who have as much knowl edge and as much interest in fish leg islation as does the Great I Am of The Dalles. There Is $500,00 Invested on the lower Cojumbla and. in west ern Washington in the fishing lndustr to every tl Invested above the Cas cades, and the people in these sec tions are mors interested In enforcing the laws and less liable to violate we ,aWB u .u.e w r. them. ia prooi 01 mis, is taken from a letter written by Mr.i aeurerx ana puohbh mu "'"" lan last December: "Laws have been passed, but where ware tne nsn waraens to enmret .i and the fishermen and cannerymen to observe them? Money has fieen ap- propriated for hatcheries, but where are the eggs to keep them busyT To show the Inconsistency of Mr. Seufert in his demanJ for a strict en forcement of the fishing laws, tne ioi- lowing letter was written to Mr. Van Dusen last September, In which he a . - .rfAin.An iYia flshlncr a.avw:iiica Tiumnuu .. ,aWB.

The facta show that the principle cause of Mr. Seufert's opposition tc Mr. Van Dusen Is because he la not tli. mnrlnatlnna unit In Uuence and refuses to be controled fln actions by Mr. Seufert. This is as Drobablr the principle reason ;hy the" board refused to remove Mr Van Dusen at the personal solicitation of Mr. Seufert. who stated that "he was after Van Dusen's scalp, and was iand the blonde locks of Mr. Van Dusn are still attached to his cranium with out the reach of the gentleman from The Dalles. . . DEARTH OF PULPIT ORATORT. The Boston Transcript expresses the alarm said to be common, today in rellrious bodies over the lack of pul- olt oower among them. No only are the number of ministers falling off. and the number of students In the cnilores studying for holly ' orders steadily on the decline, but men who are going Into the ministry are more and more of a business turn; compe tent to run all sort of ventures from a church laundry to a complicated parish house system; but they are not noteworthy when It comes to preach - ins-. This Is the assertion made oy men who can sway congregations by their eloquence and by their spiritual Dower, fails to develop over half a ! dozen men in each body who can really be said to be able to do this thing. In some bodies the number is even smaller. It is said that the demanJ for preachers of almost the old evange listic and revivallstic type is growing. Some bodies that have professed until now not to care much for first-rate pulpit work, are leading In the cry for eloquent preachers. - They are de claring that without a hold upon we people Is almost certain to be lost. Some say that it 1 needrui to maae pulpit work so Important as to ex clude every thing else. Pulpit com mittees, laymen chiefly, that have re cently made the rounds of Eastern rltles. are in despair, It Is said, and are amazed to find the extent of the mediocrity that obtains in the pul- nita. It Is from some of these lay com mlttees that the present agitation arlitPfl- The Transcrlnt and the Protestant denominations in question, if actually anxious over the situation, have failed n understand that the going out of the pulpit orator is merely the natural wkuum of the change of American Meas and temperment, whatever .iu mav be said of it, American character constant! grows more en- ihle. It Is forced, by the keen compe tltion of its dally life, to cast aside theory and fiction and search ror m,M. and facts. Preachers of any uw.u rt. In any walk, who honestly ad vocate religion, are as popular today ... vir n.l thalr hold upon tne com munlties is no less strong; but tne di - ' ' vines themselves, and their congrega tion care less and less for what is kridsvn ti pulpH oratory.
